It's a HUGE moment, one we've waited years for. We demolish the derelict house on our farm in Northern Portugal, and prepare to build a traditional stone house from the ground up. This is a project that is likely to take years to complete, and this is just the beginning so make sure you subscribe and join us!

    • What about the beautiful WISTERIA? Are you keeping it and moving it?

    • Enjoying watching your process/journey. Please forgive me if you are already aware of this - but in case you are not...Wisteria is gorgeous and the blooms smell amazing but if left unchecked, it can be highly invasive and will send up shoots wherever it can, eventually strangling any plant it grows on, including trees. If you don't plan to keep it in a pot, you might make a trellis over a patio and train it over for shade and beauty but best to keep an eye and some good clippers handy. Best wishes!

    • Yes, keep the light. I have just saved 5 Victorian lamposts from being pulled down. It was too expensive to reinstate them. I have asked the council to paint them, in the original colours and use the bars that went across them to hang planters on. I'm a local councillor it was something I could do to help the residents without costing too much money. In actual fact it saved money as the cost of removal would have been quite pricey. The new LED lights, placed in better places illuminate the darkness and old lamposts will brighten the day with their flowers. They were originally saved in the 1960s when the area was redeveloped, a bit of the area's history has been retained.

  • Wow, Wow, Wow! This is simply epic! Mario is a genius and such a wonderful neighbor and friend. And that you honor the people who have lived on the farm before you is so respectful and humble. You guys are the best! I hope you'll get approval from the commune very soon. Building a traditional stone house from scratch is the way to honor the local culture and to preserve it and in a way, you're giving back. Wonderful you guys!

  • So yesterday marked exactly two years since I first subscribed to this channel, and I haven't missed a video since. It's crazy to think about how far you guys have come on this journey, and I'm not gonna lie it makes me tear up quite a bit! Seeing Crusoe grow up (Way too quickly I might add! Slow down little boy!) and now Sawyer as well, on this little piece of paradise that you guys can call your home is just.... I don't even have the words to describe it. It makes me so incredibly happy to be able to follow along on this journey. Thank you guys for spreading the joy that you do through these videos and I wish you all the best with the new stonehouse build. 🤗

  • Yay! How exciting! Finally the demolition of that old, rotting,derelict house and your beautiful new house construction can begin! Mario is such a blessing! We love the lamp! Thank you Mario! Thank you for that shot of the beautiful, yellow, bearded iris! The wisteria is beautiful, but it can take over a structure and crush it. Be careful where you replant it. There is a house in Sierra Madre, California, called the Wisteria house. The plant is 47 years old and the largest blossoming vine in the world. (Acording to Guinness!) It was planted as a one gallon plant near the front porch, but was left to grow. It eventually destroyed the original house. The vine became so heavy and invasive that it crushed the house. A new house was built a little ways away. It is a private resident, but people can book weddings there under the wisteria. Now there is a Wisteria Festival that opens the property to the public once a year. The plant is so large, so beautiful and the smell is so strong and fragrant that it is famous!

  • Welcome back Tara and the boys. Wow I cant believe the space the house has left, John you definitely made the right decision to now bother saving any roof tiles, that roof was way too rotted to have been safe enough to get anywhere near it. We have a wisteria and even though it is over grown and we are saving to have that sorted out it is beautiful and smells so gorgeous. I realise how powerful the digger is but some of the movements looked small but the house just crumbled. I so happy for you that you are now on the right track to make your family home x

  • Sawyer is growing up so fast! The "get out of my face" eyebrow drop of scorn was so funny and he made his own decision bed or not. Precious shot of them on tip toe looking over the block wall at the digger. That would make a great photo capture. Do not worry about wisteria, it grows faster than grass. If you have to start over it will do fine.

  • Mario! What an ACE!! How lovely to see progress and know your dream is getting closer to reality. Two days to demolish and clean up the site is fantastic, but with Joao, Cruso and John working hard, Tara had the winning team with super Mario.I am hoping I didn't miss an episode while you were gone Tara, I didn't see the finish of the floor in the stone house. John worked so hard, pouring in his love for you and the boys with his efforts, and producing artistic wonders with the tiles.
