In this video i give you a full house tour of the newly purchased property. Also i show you how I have setup a temporary living situation for the the next couple months, as I start with the renovation of the building(s).
In this video i'm also referring to the 'Eco and Beyond' RU-vid channel, whom i love to watch. Go check them out also!
Enjoy the video!

When you want to plant a garden, pen the area securely & put pigs in, they are nature's rototillers & fertilize at the same time, then later you have bacon & chops with your greens. Looks like olive pickers quarters you got there, are you a friend of bea & theo of theindieprojects?

The tub is for making bread to hold the bread dough! The shoots look like they were made to hold the flour forThe breadmaking. That explains why they have such a lot of wood stored in that little shed right next to the community oven. That would explain why you have two kitchens! Love that you can make your own wine from the grapes and the fruit trees and I love that you have olive trees! Love the idea of setting up your own swimming pool!🥰

At 8 minutes...that looks like a dough trough to me. You would mix the dough in there then leave it to leaven. They were used continually as you would then take the dough needed for baking and leave a portion of dough in to help start the next batch... mix your next batch leave overnight...ad infinitum. A marvellous find!

I could be... but it could also be used to make the "chorizos". In many portuguese and spanish houses we use this to mix the pork meats, the fat, the herbs and paprika, and then we put it all into the pig's intestine. Maybe was used for both popouses, who knows 🤣

What a fantastic lifetime project! It is sad that an entire village became abandoned. I wonder if this was because of younger generations migrating to the cities, or other reasons? I love the tranquility of the area.There is a lot of hard work ahead of you, but the space offers so much potential and your possibilities are endless.it will be fun, interesting and so worthwhile. Good luck and all the best wishes. I am looking forward to seeing how you transform the place.

Hi . Great place . The first thing is a " gamela" it was used to mix flour with water and salt to make bread or even to store some fruits . The wood cabinet with a cover ( that you find in most of rooms ) is a "salgadeira " they filled it with salt and keep the meat on there . Best regards .
