Whilst we wait for our 3000-liter water tank to arrive it gives us time to prepare for the location of it – we need a sturdy concrete slab for the tank to sit on.

Theo and Bee gave up their busy city lifestyles in 2014 to explore alternative living, and have lived in vans and boats since then without looking back! Along with their cat Ginjey Bear they have been driving around the world in their self converted Sprinter van. However, when the global pandemic hit they began converting their abandoned stone barn in Central Portugal to turn into a wonderful tiny stone cottage. Along the way, they have rescued a playful cat called Furrnando and have a wonderful flock of Chickens!

Where did the side by side go? If gone I wouldn't blame ya, they are crazy expensive.
Hope you braced the outsides of the form, that concrete is going to try and budge them with all its weight
Bee I think u find painting very therapeutic? Well done both of u! ❤️🤗🇦🇺
I've never heard of dentists putting anyone to sleep for extractions! I'm thinking those followers never had it done, 😆
Must be nice. You have great dirt there. Our yard is half clay and if want to plant anything, we have to pull out all dirt and replace it. Makes it so difficult.
A quick suggestion for your waney-edged lap siding… Lay the bottom board waney side up, that way you have a square edge at the bottom to work to should you ever need it, plus it cuts down on the size of the gap at the bottom.
I love what you are doing that nice I want to be part of you employ me to help you in any work in the farm
Theo have you lost weight suits you xx
Havent seen you for weeks been away glad you are both ok xx
I hope you went and cooled down in the river Theo. I hope you took care because a dry socket is the biggest concern with a molar pulled out or at least that is the way it was years ago when they packed the socket and cautioned not to do anything that involved sucking because it can dislodge the packing and cause a dry socket which is extremely painful. You guys are doing splendidly on your homestead, I enjoy watching you two.
I am so happy to see Gingy-bear again. I love to see your progress on your property and those boards look beautiful Bea it does look rustic and as Theo says the grain does pop out on the wood. Have a lovely day to the two of you. Greetings from the UK.
You guys! 😉 Always feel inspired and happy after watching your great vids 👍👌
What an amazing accomplishment. Looking back when you started i couldn't believe that you could really convert the building. You are both geniuses in your own right. So fun to watch you. Especially love the goats!! My husband and I watch you from New Hampshire. All the best to both of you. 😘
Will y ou leave the form in place so the gravel does'nt fall out and shift the concrete slab?
Great music at 22:38 while Bea painted and Theo hoed, I expected Clint Eastwood to ride into the scene with a wretched cigarette between his teeth 🤠 giddyup
Has Theo thought about wearing a bandanna to alleviate his perspiring into his eyes? He needs to be more careful. I’m always expecting a snake to get one of you as you uncover stones, or other things and you Bea as you stroll through the grass. You’re way braver than me and I grew up on my grandmas farm. 🐍 aaawww😲😱🤪. Love you both
lol, this is pure comedy…. better than Monty Python!
There is a guy in France who will douse for water .. so that you can drill a well?
Hi guys, so enjoy watching the progress of your beautiful farm, it’s relaxing (for us), informative and entertaining! Two things, here in Texas we call converted barns ‘Barndominiums’, and second, if not too late, a friend used rebar driven into the ground 18” to 2 feet to hold a cement slab in case of water erosion underneath the slab, he used 5 in a slab that was 4X4, center & toward corners. Just a thought to pass along. Again really enjoy your videos. Happy Days
Rebar goes into slab & down into the ground, like you did to hold form, but the top part is part of slab, hope this makes sense.
Churchkey, is that paint can opener. 👍
They didn’t put me to sleep when I had my wisdom teeth out here in the Uk. I had four out and went straight back to work after. No biggy.
It was a two different kind of socks week! That means a lot of work was being done! 🙌🏼💪🏼
