Great little tour 👍🏽 H A P P Y BIRTHDAY to your son. ~ Luise🇬🇧🇵🇹

Your a lovely couple and honest, really love your videos. 😊

I watch most days and in this vlog you can really see how far you have both come. Isn't it great that being faced with things that you would dismiss in the UK, you embrace it in another country (like not having a fully kitted kitchen). I imagine your living room at a night time is very cosy. Will there be any type of celebration for Christmas in your village?

In my mind shelving is key to storage, even more so in small spaces. I do l like open shelving, for functionality and aesthetic.

good progress so far, very, very nicely presented (great attitude guys), thanks for sharing, all the best.

Just luv the shoestring budget approach. Reminds me of Steptoe's yard. Are there properties at that sort of price still available? I am thinking of coming over and spending my full Schengen 90 day allowance looking, before returning to UK and applying for my D7 visa, my early retirement plan.

HELLO ELAINE & DARREN…IT'S COMING TOGETHER GRADUALLY…ENJOY YOUR CHRISTMAS IN THE NEW DIGS…17 F. TONIGHT & SNOWING IN VANCOUVER…ALL THE BEST…🙏❄🎄;)

So wonderful 💖 such creative ideas 💡 😍

Muito bom, mesmo! Grandes avanços estão sendo concretizados!

Thanks so much for the house tour. You have got yourselves very organised and comfortable. Your future plans sound really good Do you have a back door and a back garden/yard?

Well, if I was there ide help you do the walls etc

Hello Elaine and Darren great carpentry skills making a bed building one it's amazing house for the money and a great tiny house restoration project and I love the 12 volt system and I would like to wish you a very Merry Christmas 🤶 have a good one

We have the same kitchen sink as you guys! We have a dishwasher as well though so we hook it up to the garden hose and run the drain hose out the window. 😂 I think I included that in our progress review video. But some things still need to be washed by hand. I can’t wait to build a proper kitchen.
We got a scalloped chair and coffee table the same way, beside the trash bins. 😆 We have a bunch of rescue cats so we can relate to the fur babies tracking dirt in the house. The cats love to hang out in my workshop and they get sawdust everywhere when they come in. 🤦🏽‍♀️
Your place is shaping up nicely.

Happy birthday to your son ❤️
Thank you for the house tour, very inspiring!
The little red truck has already earned its worth, by bringing your findings home 🤗
See you in the next one 🙏♥️🇩🇰

Great house and a great price. If that size is all you need, then that's all you need … Perfect! 🙂

Thanks for the tiny house tour, great to see the progress you've made.

Merry Christmas!! Thank you for the tour.

Thank You Ealine and Darren for a wonderful tour of your home. Like any home you renovate, it keeps evolving. Looking forward to more good things to come. Sending you lots of love and a
Happy Holiday Season. 🌲🌲🌲 Harriet, Jim and Yuki. Richmond, Va.

Nice to see you have a bedroom set up there…..your place is coming along a little at a time…..Have a very Merry Christmas you two.

Your place is nice and cozy and made such good use of the space. Brilliant idea with composting. It’s nice to see it’s not raining. Thank you for the tour.

I think your plans are going to be perfect for your home to meet your needs. Can’t wait to watch your journey continue!

Thank for todays vlog. You are progressing well! Have a nice evening.

A lovely little house and very cosy!

You’ve made wonderful progress on your little house! And thanks for showing it to us! I was most concerned about your bathroom arrangements, and I’m glad you have figured it out and also have a real bedroom!! It’s a great, useable home!! Cheers, Judy

Thank you both for showing us around your lovely home, you have done a lot since you’ve moved in, it’s looking much more comfy 😊 it’ll be even better once you fulfill your plans 👍 I admire you guys, God bless x

Functional and cozy! Couldn't ask for more.

😁 I have the same sink as you guys, just in red

Thankyou for sharing, myself and the hubster would love a small place like that in Portugal 😊

Hi i saw that you said there are no charity shops near you . There are 4 in your area mainly animal fundraising, if you google them you will see a map around Castelo Branco.

🎉🤝🎄🌟👍🍀💐 12:50

Fantastic!

The house is coming along quite nicely…Great job guys!! Last we saw you were sleeping in the now living room. This is so much fun watching your progress. I can't believe how much you both have accomplished in such a short time. Thanks for sharing with us.

Hello again .Thanks for replying to my comment . I left a large reply in return .This is the second part . Have you considered the use of ollas for your garden ? There are many DIY videos on youtube . Traditionally made out of unglazed terra cotta used plastic water bottles work as well . I enjoy this Spanish organic Youtube channel Fanmascotas . There is a excellent video – How not to water plants for a month and for free . They have excellent low cost ideas also the one with lettuce in a pot in the thumbnail that may give you ideas on keeping your pots watered in the summer . Possible in your garden drip hoses from your large water tank could be connected to your olla system then you could go to the seaside and ride donkeys 🙂 Merry Christmas

What a lovely cozy home 🎉 love it Elaine. You both look so happy and stress free and enjoying your simple living lifestyle …I admire you both. All those bells and whistles are really not necessary. Happy Christmas week and enjoy the upcoming season 🎄👍🌲🧑‍🎄

I like the way you are able to appreciate little things and 'make them look good for you. This approach to everyday life brings serenity,which in turns makes you so gentle and generous prople.
Your house is so cosy, and following Elaine's plans will be still more comfortable. Warmest wishes for Christmas, dear Elaine and Darren

Hi guys…its really taking shape and changed a lot already..love the recycling ♻️…onwards and upwards 👍 👌🙏

Votre maison est petite mais bien chaleureuse. Et quand vous abatterez les murs , ce sera un peu plus confortable. Bravo pour le lit !! Passez un bon noel, vous qui avez de la chance de vivre au portugal… Bises de France !

It's really coming along. Great job you two! I want to be your neighbor there. Lol I'm longing for a simpler life but I can't move anytime soon as I have too many animals to take care of at the moment.

Thank you for the updated tour. It's nice you have the bedroom set up. I say, "sure, why not" for showing the composting toilet set up. The space is tiny but very comfy looking!💕

How you have made your abandoned house into a home is spectacular!!! It’s very comfy & functional for you as very as inviting to visitors! Send our Happy Birthday greetings from friends in Nebraska in the USA! 💜

Another great video, thank you, house is taking shape nicely. You have made is comfortable for the winter months as you will be on the land more…. I can see you sitting under a pergola with plants growing to shade you from the sun. Keep smiling! 😊

As a couple you both so in tune with one another. It takes 2 people to keep a small space workable and tidy. I hope all your plans come to fruition. Wishing you a happy and healthy 🎄 Christmas. Regards to Max also.

How do your warm your bedroom?

🌲🌄✌

How cute is your tiny house, and how cozy & functional you've made it with your brilliant repurposing 😍!! Thank you for touring us. Happy🥳birthday to your young man🎉.

Was your bedroom formerly the house's original kitchen? Is the inherited-with-the-house wood burner in your storage room or in the bathroom?
