In this video I catch-up with Evelin a solo female in her sixties who moved to Castelo Branco Central Portugal with her two cats in July 2021.
.
She bought and is renovating a 3 bedroom house, which she is taking off-grid as she builds her homestead. We talk about Portuguese builders, solar, bore holes and all that stuff.
.
Evelin has also had some health issues and she shares with us her experience of the Portuguese health system for foreigners.

Hi Evelyn, I found a ketogenic diet really helped me with autoimmune problems, seemed to re-set my immune system ? It was incredibly surprising, in fact shocking, it not only turned things around but how quickly it started ! Less than 10 days in and I was noticing differences in my health. I only started the diet to loose weight, ended up doing it way after I had achieved my goal, and my weight balanced out.
Coliform is a group of gut bacteria. E coil is one of the gut bacteria. That is why even are tsp drinking water is chlorinated (bleached)!! You need to do some more research re drinking water supply.
You are like a nomad in Portugal for sone while. Will settle at some stage?
Like seeing the updates. I’m a solo female in my 50’s working my small farm on my own so it’s lovely to see other women in my age range doing the same thing x
Thank you for taking the time to visit Evelin. She is an inspiration for a lot of 60s
Nice update. Who is the solar company that Eveline is using?
So bummed we missed the live! But it's great to see how Eveline settling in despite a few challenges! The part where she talks about health care was especially handy!! Thanks for sharing Luise! Merry Christmas to you both!! <3 xx
I’m so sorry for her loss.
A rheumatologist appt for 0€ is astonishing.
This lady is an inspiration.
An electric wire lol i bet the pups are gonny love her.
Boil the water to make your bore water drinkable
Hi Luise and Eveline, nice to get an update. I hope the builders will finish the build soon. What a great collection of Weck pots. You preserve a lot of your garden vegetables, looks great.
I hope your health will be better. I presume it was one of the bloodtests, but did they test you for Lyme disease?
Wish you both the best.
Fijne kerstdagen en een goed 2023!🌲🥂
Luise,
I’m SO bummed I missed the live! Just watched the replay. I love Eveline! Her garden looks amazing. I want to see ALL the things she’s got in her larder. So based on the two year timeline for builders, in 6 months all renovations will be completed, and I hope Eveline will show us around then. Here’s to her ever improving health and may her mom Rest In Peace. xx
So nice to share an update about Eveline and how she is coping with it all. I wish her good health because that is indeed wealth. Her garden is doing very well, Her garden is doing very well.

Hi Eveline and Luise ! … you both looking great 👍
The work that has been completed by the builders thus far is perfect and highly recommendable ! …
I was shocked as they initially motored on and on … then nothing, what a let down indeed and very frustrating !
Great info about health care
Thanks for update Luise ! …
🙏☘️😘
I really admire Evelin, she is one of the few people I would love to meet if I ever moved to Portugal. She is friendly yet gets on with life alone, not dependant on others, doesnt complain, she is wonderful.
Wow check out all the con trails!!!
Eveline is showing us in our 60s+ that there are still a lot of adventures to experience and dreams to live out.
Luise thanks for this update
Thank you both!! Leuk met al die dieren erbij nu!
Hello Louise, thanks for this video update on Eveline’s challenges as new homesteader in Portugal. She’s indeed a very sweet and courageous lady! I’d like to present my sincere condolences for the passing away of her Mom, that’s a tremendous loss! Best wishes to both of you, stay healthy and happy! 🌸🌹🌺🙏
