WE BOUGHT AN ABANDONED FARM With Stone Houses to Renovate in Portugal | TIMELAPSE 1 Year in 25 Mins

After selling EVERYTHING we owned, we bought an abandoned farm with 2 stone houses to renovate in Portugal. It’s been a wild journey so far full of highs and lows, and as 2024 approaches, we’ve been reflecting on our progress from the last year & thought it would be fun to create a timelapse showing our last one year of work in 25 minutes. Working every week in our spare time to renovate & restore this abandoned farm into a beautiful homestead, we easily forget how far we’ve come & the transformations made so far, so seeing it all put together in this timelapse video has really spurred us on for a productive next year! LIKE THIS VIDEO if you enjoyed it & SUBSCRIBE to follow our journey as we document our life here in Central Portugal & the many DIY projects that we’ll be tackling including renovating a tiny stone house, setting up systems to grow some of our own food & finally restoring the 100 year old farm house. Also say hi in the comments! We’d love to hear from you 😊 Ricky & Victoria x ------------- We’re Ricky & Victoria 👋 We’re slowly bringing an abandoned farm back to life & transforming it into a beautiful Portuguese homestead for us & our two rescue dogs Teddy & Poppy. We both agree that we’re not experts in anything that we do here, however we don’t let that stop us from giving it a try. We live our life by trying. We live our life by doing. We live our LIFE BY LIVING. ------------- 00:00 - Intro 00:58 - Cleaning up the tiny stone house 02:46 - Building a track 03:35 - Greenhouse and veg garden 08:07 - Fencing the farm 09:27 - DIY plunge pool renovation 11:53 - Removing tiny house roof 13:10 - Preparing the stone walls for a new roof 13:54 - Concrete ring beam 17:02 - New ridge beam 18:30 - New roof structure 20:49 - Building a warm roof 22:22 - Preparing for roof tiles 23:19 - Tiling the roof 24:22 - Thanks for watching
