Your journey and the way you choose to share it touches me deeply. So much beauty, inspiration and creativity, and far away from the ubiquitous insta-aesthetics. I love the realness and a sense of groundedness you transmit. I feel inspired. Thank you for sharing your journey and my sincere condolences for your loss. RIP Willy ❤
Thank you so much! We wanted to show the journey from our personal perspective like a home movie that we we are able to share, Im glad that it resonated. I think I cried about 3 times making it, especially when I saw Willy 😢 She was such a special girl. Thank you again ! 🌹
Thank you for sharing your backstory. You are both Very interesting and creative people. Most of all, you are both fearless and self sufficient, eager to learn and up for challenges that would overwhelm most others. I noticed your dedication of the post and got the impression that your beloved dog Willy passed. I’m truly sorry for your loss. Please don’t get discouraged as you are inspirational. Thank you. Joe.
beautiful video, loved it... I'm a Belgian living in Sydney for the last 12 years. I have been blessed to be with a fantastic Italian girl for the last 10 years. She's from Barletta, Puglia. I was in Puglia last July. Just wonderful. One day I would love to move there too and live a simple live in the Italian South.
Wonderful video, my favorite so far. Nice to see how your journey unfolded and led you to the beautiful region of Puglia. My condolences for the loss of your lovely dog.
Truly beautiful. It was interesting to hear about your former life together in Paris and Portugal, it makes me really glad and appriciative to watch your vlogs. They show your love for eachother, your beautiful dogs and the projects you work on together. Ciao from Sweden.
Your video was heartwarming, & beautiful. Willy was 1 of the most courages & beautiful female dogs i have ever encountered. Her spirit lives in you both. Love from Aus ❤
Love you guys 🤗.... every day you make a living poem about what it is to be an appreciative human of all that our beautiful planet can give us. Hang onto it, there are so many malevolent forces at work against us. Peace 🐦
I am honored with this beautiful video.Your simplicity, modesty, talent and humanity inspire me. I wish you all the best, lots of health and happiness in life.
so glad the algorithms put your vlog on my feed this morning - I'm now catching up and must say I loved your home in Italy, your road trip to Sweden and look forward to what you do next. the best of luck!
Yes, I have been following along but not commenting. Thank you for sharing your interesting life story. I had wondered. You have created a beautiful place to live. I am so sorry for your loss of Willy. I thought I would die when the dog of my life died at 13 years. He had been with me from 8 weeks old. All the best to you from Memphis, Tennessee, USA.
You were so brave, innovative, remote, yet "très à la mode"^, determined to go on, relentlessly urged to live, whenever, however, wherever, bravo. It is very inspiring. Beauty Full. Your taste, bee and wine adventure, pottery journey. Grazie,Obrigado for all that. Corona para ponerlos sur les routes de non retour. No fear. Only love.
What a fantastic journey… such a peaceful, beautiful place to be in with enjoying the ‘real’ things in life. Good food, good wine, good company, and of course the furry family.. wishing you much love xx
Can’t believe you guys don’t have 100 thousand subscribers. All you have done by yourselves is nothing short of amazing. You guys are amazing but then you should know that by now. Nothing is beyond you!
My wife and I enjoyed very much this particular video. We actually stared watching your RUclips channel when you were remodeling your home in Puglia. Loved your design and especially your pool. Sorry to see that your beloved Willy has cross the rainbow bridge. If you’re ever make a trip to Madeira Island, Portugal we would love to see you and show you our piece of paradise.
What a beautiful and inspiring journey you’ve made of your lives🙏 a powerful testimony to what can be done with Love and hard work!! So sorry for the loss of your sweet pup, you gave her a good life❤
Ebonie and Martin, thank you so much for sharing your beautiful journey with us. I felt so much love, gratitude and peace while getting to know your story and I'm so inspired to live a life more similar to your lifestyle. As for Willy, I'm sure she lived a very happy life with you guys, and I am deeply sorry for your loss. Sending you all, including the pups, lots of love and wishing you all the best in what's to come in your journey! ❤
I hope you find yourselves some glorious land again….with an old wreck or 2 on it. Stuck way down here in NZ, I love your curiosity and your creative journey together. You’re both so ‘can do’ and practical. We describe this here as ‘Kiwi ingenuity’. Your ceramics look wonderful. 👍
What a beautiful story I hope you share more ❤ you are such a beautiful couple sharing your food wine and such creative pottery and workmanship is such beautiful inspiration you much love towards each other and your pets life is worth living 🌹🎈❤️
Truly an inspirational video. Thank you for sharing your journey of togetherness, adventure, challenges and hard, dedicated work to overcome the odds. Sympathies to you both on Willy's departure. You are making a very special life together. Well done! I wish you well 💚💪
Absolutely loved this video! Thank you for sharing your truly awesome and inspirational life story! Living your best life from Paris to Portugal to Puglia! I'm looking forward to seeing where next the road in your amazing journey will take you. My sincere condolences on Willy's passing.
Your story and mode of telling it has truly captured me. Love the "wild wild west" music portion.......guitar twang and all! Hope all is well in Sweden? It's been two weeks..... God bless.
What a remarkable and rewarding journey you have had. Amidst the challenges, you persevered. So inspiring! Wish you both a wealth of happiness and peace❤. New subscriber xx
I have just started watching your videos and the work you have done is amazing. The transformations are beautiful and you have a wonderful sensibility. I am sorry for the loss of your beloved Willy….now in doggie 🐶 heaven. I too lost mine this year….and need to adopt my next member… sending healing ❤️🩹 love energy to you and your fur family!!
How amazing that this video was recommended to me on my page! I'm interested in living abroad some day, so I was checking out videos about that topic when I recognized Martin in the pictures of this video. As i child, I grew up on the same street as him, and we went to the same school growing up. It is truly great to see someone from your past following their big dreams, it is inspiring :) Good luck to the both of you with your future adventures!
Hi Johanna, thank you so much for your kind message. It’s such a small world sometimes. Happy you enjoyed the video. I will pass on your message to Martin. I’m sure he will be happy to hear it 😊 Kindest Ebonie
Wow! I knew in my gut, besides the obvious, you are both multi-talented people. All of your videos have such an artistic flare. Please keep blogging whatever you decide to do! My hubby does business with an Italian co. That makes a specialty wall coating for interiors of historic buildings and so we keep wanting to move to Italy, especially after watching your vlogs. Everything is so uncertain everywhere so I understand why you are mulling plans over. The hardest part is to know when to stay put. Looking forward to more of your adventures. Thank you both!
New subscriber as I came across one of your videos the other day. This particular video is one of the best from anyone I've watched. So authentic, inspirational and just real. You guys are a breath of fresh air. Can't wait to watch the others. All the best, James, Sydney.
Very beautiful story, so sad you had to sell your property in Portugal … we also have a small family with our dogs and cats and have bought a country home with land in Sicily… thank you for inspiring and motivating
It was such a special place but we’ve really realized special places exist all over and I’m sure we will experience even more in our life time. We feel lucky to have experienced it and helped to breathe new life into the abandoned place. Best of luck with your project in Sicily.
This has the undercurrent of a valedictory -- I wonder if you're getting ready to announce that you're leaving Puglia. I had no idea you had already traveled so many paths. You seem such naturals at home design and ceramics that I though you'd been at it all your lives! I'm not clear if lovely Willie is no longer on the planet, but if that's the case, I'm sorry for your loss.
wow, what an impressive perspective. I absolutely loved your video. How lucky you both were for having met and how smart you both are to enjoy so much beauty and work. You humbled me today and put a seed in my mind. Thank you 😘
This was incredibly moving, your journey is an inspiration and lesson in how lives should lived. Do what makes you happy. Thank you so much for sharing, I had no idea you were Aussie, can't tell from your accent:)
Thank you, that’s very kind of you 😊 I think iv lost most of my accent from living in to many places, iv been out of Australia for nearly 10 years now 😬
très beau parcours de vie, une meilleur compréhension de qui vous êtes...j'aime votre Arte et le vous avez fait de la maison...moi un portugais a Paris, j'aimerais avoir un lieu de vie comme ça pour ma retraite...me inspire beaucoup ... bonne chance vous
What an amazing experience you both chose to have instead of chasing money in a big city! So refreshing. Very glad I have found your channel. Good luck to you, guys! 😍
I really love your history . It amaze and teach me your prefer discomfort and hard work instead of money. But in the process it brings more satisfaction and enjoyment! What a lesson 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼‼️

Hi,I like you both very much! I watch everything that comes from you. What did you do with the van,have you finish it?❤
Very sorry about your dog Willy. RIP Willy.😢
The van is an ongoing saga! Will update more about it this week I think. It’s been even more complicated than renovating haha 😂
Thank you! She was very special 🥰
Example of New Humanity and New Earth......Bravi... and thank you !
