We are in the middle of renovating our house in an abandoned Portuguese village. Currently we are working on the mini rebuild. In this episode i try to work out further how i need to space out the battens to get the desired result. I like an overhang on all sides and don’t want to cut tiles if not necessary. Also the garden still needed to be finish. For fun.. i do i short quad ride through the forst with the new Gopro on my head 🙂 In the next episode i will probably be cleaning roof tiles..
My name is Jasper and i bought a house in a Portuguese ghost town. Together with my dogs Zoey& Akira we show you the rebuild of our house en what it is like living the daily life in Central Portugal.

The mini build may look as if it is taking you ages … but there is so much other stuff you have to do also … so taking this into consideration … YOU ARE DOING SO WELL … all will be finished, when it’s finished !
🙏☘️😘
🍀💐
That forest track looks beautiful at the moment 😍
As usual, good choice of music. <3
Thanks for the spin on the scooter, good fun!
Shout out to all you roofing experts in Portugal ,Jasper needs your info on this roof remember he’s doing this by himself which is a great accomplishment !
Nice wood tour👍
Hi Jasper, roofing in heat is a bind. Early morning start, walk the girls evening. We can wait for your video. Loved the quad ride,it felt as if we were right on the bike with you. Have a good weekend, your yard looks much better, just needs around your olive trees trimming. Stay safe.
It is not easy doing a renovation project by yourself. It will go faster if you can get Duete there this summer and maybe Sis to help with the interior of the house and the camera man/editor to help with the filming
That poor little Quad Bike really struggles with your size on the rough tracks.
Dizzying, shaky and blurry, out of focus filming. Hope that wasn't your new editor. Better luck next time.
Nice view from the rooftop. That ruin next to the shed you're working on doesn't look salvageable at all.
Почему мусорщикам не оставляете вино?Вы тогда их очень приятьно удивили.Наверно они каждый раз с надеждой подезжает к вашему дому
OMG will the tiles ever get laid on the roof
What happened to your list you were checking off? 🤣🤣😀
Did you happen to explain why there are vertical battens instead of just the horizontal ones?
I’d be worried the front wall of the building came down, your concrete lintels aren’t sitting on much, plus the weight of the roof , I would be getting those walls sorted before you start working on a door and window
Good to see you having fun after a day's work.
The gardens looking much better…nice work. I love the tunes you play, it makes me wanna get up and have a good dance. Thanks for the quad ride that was really cool, it was like being on a playstation game 😉 the skid was ACE!!🤪☺🤗
Buy a lawnmower.
Watching you "weed-whacking" the grass, I noticed that there are a lot of plants with blue flowers. Are they borage? Looking at the amount of grass, that's pure gold for composting. Not that you will have time for gardening soon, but that when you are ready, you will have some rich soil to use. If the blue flowers are borage, it indicates some great mineral content deep in the ground–also excellent compost.
Just a couple of thoughts for the future–and suggestions in case you have some volunteers wondering what they can do.
I know if I were visiting, I'd be working away pruning olive trees!
One thing I'm curious about. As far as I can tell, your ghost town doesn't have any public buildings. No market place, stores, offices or churches. That strikes me as a bit strange.
That was a nice little forest loop, looks like a fun ride and a nice way to relax and reward yourself after a good days work.
Come on jasper we need to crack on with the roof 😫 let's get this party 🥳 started 🤪
😀
progress–no wonder–o well
8:56 oh my god I cannot believe how dirty those tiles are, can you imagine anyone putting them up on the roof, it's so embarrassing.
If it was me I'd spend a lot of time cleaning them before I put them up😆😁😄
