We are in the middle of renovating our house in an abandoned Portuguese village. We are currently working on restoring the roof construction. In this video we have some rain downpour coming or way.. The roof needs cover! ..Also i will be starting in closing of te gaps in the first section, cementing in bricks. Zoey gets some company from het boyfriend on the walk(s). And we get to deal with some rain in the living quarters. hmm..
My name is Jasper and i bought a house in a Portuguese ghost town. Together with my dog Zoey we show you the rebuild of our house en what it is like living the daily life in Central Portugal.

Black plastic at ridge must overlap orange one or you will still get rain in.
Hi, you know I smoked since I was 15 n I quit smoking one and a half years ago. I tried to quit several times but what really helped was Nicolette Gum (the cheaper brands work the same and is what I use. ) But yes, I had gotten the beginning of C.O.P.D. and then they found a spot in my lung so that really made me want to stop. Then I had a Stroke. I should have stopped smoking long ago n maybe I wouldn't have gotten these problems. I really wish you would try to stop smoking before you get any bad problems too. I never listened to people n this is what happens when you don't listen I guess. It was very hard for the first month, but I toughed it out n now I can breathe better n I feel better n when I'm near a smoker, the smell of the smoke is aweful. I have to get away from the smoke. Now I know what people meant about smoke smelling bad. Lol.
I hope you don't get mold in there. You may need a dehumidifier til you get the leaking stopped. Mold spores are very toxic n can kill you n Zoey.
Awwwww, Zoey found a friend !!! That's the best thing I have ever seen!!!!
Cool keep on building !=8)
Jou all buy those expensive ruins there without rivers streams and good land.why jou didnt go to serbia?much better country to live
Wow..You are moving fast now..It looks so great so far….Hard work but its worth it..
Cape Town South Africa
👍💐
Hey! Do you know if there are other properties in your village for sale? It would be really cool to revive the town as I’m also looking to do something similar. I tried to see if there was a better way to contact you but wasn’t sure where.
Those low doorways are going to be a constant headache for you. Your video editing is improving.
Hi there I'm new to your channel..😊
Nice place you build there!!
Zoe is so beautiful 😍 What breed is she??And did you have any problems to get Zoe in Portugal???
Many blessings!!🙏🏻
Hi Zoey
Oi ! What did the building inspector say?
The mountain can’t get easier until you say good bye to overdue old habits … one in particular 😉🤭
Go Dutch to walk your doggie. Get a E-bike. Wel zo makkelijk.
Hey Jasper, what part of Portugal are you in? I think I recognise that dog that was after Zoe!!!
Hey jasper, the rain and cold, a miserable time of year for building. I don't know how cold it gets there but it would make your life on the construction site so much more comfortable with a heater of some kind just to get the chill out. Just a suggestion. I had a little radiate heat heater in my garage when I was building and it was nice to get warmed up when needed.
You might not make it to the end of the remodel with the smoking that will kill you first…oh well…
great job Jasper
Well done Jasper, and thank you for sharing your project here on YouTube. Very interesting and inspiring to watch. 👍🌞
Keep up walking I can no longer walk very far , wish I was able to improve this but it’s a health problem. I would certainly be in a wheelchair with you pushing.😂😂😂 my dog is easy 2times larger than Zoe, My Bella is a rescue dog. She is known as a Bull Arab, mix of Staffy husky greyhound and about 3 more that I can’t think of bred to hunt Boars wild pigs. ….she beautiful placid loving and a cuddler….
The shelves would be good for your kitchen products, soup tomatoes you get it. You need lime for the walls and DO NOT use cement if you do you are going to create rising damp. You know this stuff.
I hope Zoey has been spayed or you are going to be over run with puppies soon. 😂 she is looking great. Glad your place is starting to come together. It’s looking great.
I'm a cigarette user so what… keep is healthy 🍄💖
Rain rain and more rain. It is the builders worst enemy, also the shorter daylight hours. You are wise to move timber inside Jasper.
Always excited watching you,your doin great job,wow your in the right track haha,zoe is always on your side.
You need a shovel .
Good progress Jasper, does Zoey friend have a home or just lives free range, they seem to have a different approach to pet care, reminds me of our Township areas dogs wander about, altho lot safer in Portugal chance of getting run over is virtually nil, as hardly any cars Pls give him some water next time if he lives out😙
All day hard working 👍👍👍
That's handy you can get onto your roof with one big stride :-o.
More progress Jasper. How are you feeling about the project at this stage and now that the weather is changing quite dramatically? Are you going to be ready?
You are doing so well.
I love the way Zoey keeps checking up on you. Staying close and making sure your on the job. The tarp will keep the rest of the roof dry. The little jobs your cracking on with and it's looking good. Love the morning walk scenery 😍. Zoey's friend is keeping her fit, he will loose interest. The rain is heavy, you may need to move into the new wing for the winter…..You have a great plus Jasper the window shutters, they keep so much heat in, I have some on my house and we use them more when it's frosty and snowing. I would hang a curtain over the door too, it will keep out drafts and keep you warmer too. Everything is looking so good and your plan is coming to fruition. The end is in sight, you will be planning your next jobs, inbetween the weather. Stay safe, keep the hammer going.
Happy dog, dry inside, happy life! 🌀❤️🌀
Good to see the rain is not dampening your enthusiasm, great work Jasper. 👍🏽😎
You are doing a good job. Looking good
Nice work 🤗
That makes you good, those walks inside the forest, for your lungs. You are staying for winter? In the morning there, it must be what, 8 or 9 ºC ?? They say on IPMA, too much rain is coming. Stay safe !!
Can’t wait to see what you do with the other room you are finishing. What kind of heating will you be using for the winter?
Olá amigo. O senhor está a fazer um exlente trabalho, você é uma pessoa de coragem! Os meus parabéns pelo seu trabalho.

Glad you had some tarps around. I was originally thinking you could have throw your pool up there. lol But you got it covered. That was heavy rains that went on all day. Glad you keep busy and switched gears to inside work. Good for you! And what progress you made too.
Excellent job!
Need a light mate? :p
Are you putting insulation up? You're doing good! Lucky you! I'm from Northern California and you're little village is so nice. I love Portugal.
Looking good. Keep rolling on.
What are you using for heat? Does Zoey sleep with you?
