Work continues on my solo, DIY tiny house barn conversion in Central Portugal where I attempt to drill a mega hole through a 55cm granite wall and carry on working on the never-ending wooden kitchen cabinets.
But it’s not all work and no fun around here! September is for Chocalhos, a three-day festival celebrating all things sheep (and so much more!) in Alepedrinha, a nearby village. The Saturday is my favourite night of the year and I’ll bring you along at the end of the video for some sights and sounds of the festa!
Make sure to stick around to the very end for some ridiculousness of the highest order!

Nice to see the world is going back to normal.
That long steel bar is called a crowbar , no idea why!
I really enjoyed this one. Glad to see Nick and Andrea my favorite folks
You made me laugh! That’s a great party trick!🎉
Wow that's some seriously expert drinking skill with that string contraption haaaaa
Yay! Beer marionette!!! 😂😂😂❤❤❤
If you combine sawdust with glue then apply to gaps wiping off excess you'll get better results.
Love seeing the wood after sanding, very satisfying. Keep up the good work 👍
Bet you had a sore head the morning after your night out!

Looked like great fun…. enjoy your winter.
You can use that rubble you swept up for your garden pots to open up the soil
…party girl…😂😁👍
The drinking game was worth it 🤣🤣🤣
I mix the sawdust with the glue and then use a paint spatula to push it into the cracks. Works like a charm and I have less glue on the surface of the wood that way.
Good to see you letting your hair down and having some fun. 🌻😃
Good to see you still at it…kitchen is coming along. I know the rain is welcome, but I’ll feel so much better when you have some storage and a bit of covered space to work in outside in the rain. It will be a challenge to work inside in such cramped quarters. I enjoyed seeing the “fiesta”. Looks like an upbeat friendly sort of place to live and you are looking a little more rested. Keep up the good work!
