An AWESOME NEW STONE ROAD for our Portuguese Homestead (in 6 days)  🚧🚧🚧 (with Time-lapse)

This week, Dan and Senior Zès Manel and creating a new road! Yep, the current dirt road has been a problem since the rain started. And if we ever want to drive up the hill, we need to fix the road and get some help creating a new and awesome stone road. These are the best bits of 6 day’s road work project, and this is how we’re enhancing our Portuguese homestead and transforming it into a farm that works for us.

34 weeks ago, we bought an abandoned farm in Tras-os-montes, North Portugal, and we’re building our dream house with a public garden, an ice cream kiosk, and our dream house, optimized toward minimalist yet comfortable living.

We left the Rat trace for a simple life in North Portugal. And this is a slice of our dream and a new simple life. Follow us on Facebook:

  1. You guys have a true community spirit. So rare to find these days. Everyone cares for each other, and everyone wins❤ I am glad that you found and have been embraced by a lovely village.

  2. You two are one of the nicest couples on you tube i love your road they did a great job on it and your home i cant wait to see it coming along till its finished so please keep the videos coming and hi from nsw australia ♥️😊👍⭐️⭐️

  3. I love the new look the road has. I love how Portugal People are so generous to all the newcomers , they make everyone feel welcomed. I just know if you and I were neighbors we would be best of friends , you and Dan are my kind of people. I can't wait to see what kind of awesome project y'all come up with. Until next time y'all have a great week.

  5. The road looks great. Have you experienced any rain on it yet? It will be good to see how well it helps channel the run off.
    I like how you talk of future plans and then explain how plans can change and what you will need to do has changed due to how you are using the property.
    Can I ask what the base under the stones is? I'm guessing some kind of sand/cement mix maybe?
    Great update guys, all the best. 👍🏼

  6. Yay! Huge job well done👏👏
    Since you have moved into the house you look so much happier and less stressed. It’s so good to see.
    Loving your chatty style.
    Sharing your internet is a great thing to do. Being integrated into the community is so rewarding and giving back a little is marvellous ❤️
    Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺

  7. I love the road, it is so in keeping with the surrounding landscape. The mid week videos are great, keep doing them. You show us a different side of yourselves and life in the village where you live. I would love to see more of the surrounding area, where you shop and the villages that surround you. Thank you for being kind to your neighbours, giving is so much better than receiving. Good that you are taking time out to enjoy the outdoors. When the rain comes you will be able to spend time finishing the inside of the house. Enjoy planting a garden, commonsense will get you through. We all enjoy your videos, just continue to be yourselves, hopefully only down to earth people watch these videos Gosh Tony has got so big, it was good to see them all playing. Mason is always so busy, I love how he thinks he is the supervisor and has to right in the middle of any work that is happening. Oh dear little Gruff so good to see him very briefly. See you next video.

  8. What can I say. Wow! Fantastic achievement on the road. You guys make me feel lazy! “Goat shit bend is officially open.” 😂😂
    Dan you need to keep hold of the nail gun. Sindy seems more excited about it than you. Great video, well done! 😎👍🏼

  9. The road was well done but really hard work🙈 I am still a little concerned if your water problems are all resolved but the video just gave a small insight on the area but still: well done!!

  10. It is a joy to watch your videos and listen to you two talk about your life. Your neighbors must be so happy to have your family in their community. You guys must be very happy with this community as well.

  11. You guys are amazing congrats your getting to your dreams, but please don’t overdo your health 🙏 from Puerto Rico, USA territory ⭐️🇺🇸🇵🇷🇺🇸🇵🇷🇺🇸🇵🇷⭐️👍👍😊

  12. Such a nice episode!! You guys look so happy and the interaction with the portuguese people. Even Dan starts talking a lot. I've been libing 10 years in Portugal, gosto tanto Portugal e os Portugueses. Continua assim.

  13. What beautiful people you two are, such kind hearts and a true sense of community, just wonderful 💕❤️💕. Your road is such a practical and yet organic addition to your property and infrastructures are so important to prevent future problems with the weather. You really are thinking of the future!! It is such a pleasure to join you both in your adventures xxx
