Anytime you Don't have a gap between the bed and the floor you can get mold from your body heat and moisture when you are in bed, also with dog beds. It's happened to us, you will be fine with the new bed frames with the gap.
Oh my goodness you two work so hard. I don't know how you do it all honestly, but I love seeing your progress and enjoy your videos. Cookie is so lucky to have you two to care for him❤
OMG i love op-shopping (thrifting) it's so much fun! the items you have scored are beautiful! some of those large bowls would look good sitting on the kitchen bench with fruit & vegies in them, ready to use or eat. awww poor cookie, he must be so uncomfortable, hope his owners allowed you to help him I think the damp was caused by the bed base sitting on the floor, don't think you have rising damp, hope your carpet/rug is salvageable, as it was very pretty, ply wood doesn't breath very well, it should be okay to put a rug back, now you have the bed up off the floor you could try getting some form of cork tiles to go under the floor to help with keeping the warmth in or something that is removable in the summer, when you don't need it looking forward to seeing your tidy & cozy house in the next episode thanx for sharing
My the pair of you have thrown yourselves into getting everything unpacked/washed/cleaned and put away! You must both be shattered! Great to see you back home. Now the real hard work starts as you try to decide which order you need to get things done in! Looking forward to the forth coming journey of making the house into your home.❤
Love you guys,your filming and editing style but most of all your enthusiasm and obvious deep love for each other that just shines through.I am excited to come along on your journey ❤
The bedroom looks great! Maybe it was the mold that was making you sick last year. The curtains are amazing. Excited to see everything in its place and used. Great job thrifting.
This was a fantastic video! It’s amazing that you could be on the road, unload and move everything, get a little sleep, help the neighbor’s sick dog and then clean part of the house, laundry, put together that fabulous bedroom and hang curtains all in one day. Thankfully the weather is cooperating so you can sit outside with a meal, take a break and enjoy that gorgeous view. All that plus filming and editing a vlog. Thanks so much for showing all the thrifted and gifted goodies you brought back, too. The dinner plates are my favorite. I love the “new” curtains and that beautiful bedspread.
@@WaleandMe I’m still hoping to mail you a little something, but I don’t think I got a shipping address yet. Do you have a post office box, or anywhere we can send packages to? I understand the privacy thing. I just really want to send you a little something, both for you guys, and this sweet doggie you care for 🧡
"todays another day" 😅 you guys are living your dream and your both seem really happy. if you get hate comments in the future just know it's from jealous people.
Hello there, I'm have been doing catch up, nearly there, and enjoying your blog, so thank you. I have watched you Alojandra, hope spelling is correct, struggling with fatigue and other health problems and admire your attitude to trying to build up your fitness, and wonder if perhaps you can eat mushrooms for protein, I've read that and spinach etc are good "meat" substitutes, I also appreciate you may not be able to purchase them, however mushrooms can be grown in a box in a dark space and spinach/silverbeet in pots etc. I am not a vegan but do eat meatless meals, and find these 2 veg filling and, well, I actually like them . Anyway just a thought and I'm sure you already know about them, wishing you both well, and I'll be catching up rest of your trip away today, sending ❤from Western Australia ❤
Thank you so much for following our journey and for your kind recommendation. I would love to learn how to grow our own mushrooms actually. Hopefully I can get to that soon. Sending you lots of love back ❤
Because we are very aware of how climate change is affecting the warmer parts of Spain and would like to always have enough water for our land to thrive 🙂
As a foreigner who lives in Spain, animal neglect is often construed as a cultural issue, however, this is not the case. The ley de animal covers animal rights, and the deplorable state of poor cookie is sanctionable. My husband is Spanish and is the first to take any of our fur babies to the vet if they have the slightest issue.
Hi Josephine! Totally agree that animal neglect should not be justifies as a cultural issue. I have worked in animal welfare and am very passionate about the topic. I'm aware of the Spanish law and would never doubt to take action against a case of abuse. However, I am also able to see the limitations of this rural part we're living in, where some people live in conditions of poverty and neglect that I didn't even know were possible in Europe. We know that the owners love their dog and are just not capable of properly caring for him when he's sick. And luckily we're here and in a position to help. We're doing what we believe is in the best interest of everyone involved (furry baby included). ❤
@WaleandMe Thanks for clarifying your comment, I did worry that it gave the message that Spanish people don't care about their pets. Your neighbours are extremely fortunate to have such compassionate friends who are able and willing to help. Thank you both so much. 💓

Totally agree. Lift the bed and problem solved.
@@katybuilds @janehodgetts6078 We learned our lesson and will for sure be getting a new bed frame 😅
So nice to see you take care of the dog! Poor animal, he/ she is worth a proper treatment. Thank you!👍🙏
We love cookie 😊❤
Isn't it amazing to unpack all those little treasures that caught your eye over the years, love it.❤

awww poor cookie, he must be so uncomfortable, hope his owners allowed you to help him
I think the damp was caused by the bed base sitting on the floor, don't think you have rising damp, hope your carpet/rug is salvageable, as it was very pretty, ply wood doesn't breath very well, it should be okay to put a rug back, now you have the bed up off the floor
you could try getting some form of cork tiles to go under the floor to help with keeping the warmth in or something that is removable in the summer, when you don't need it

Aww thank you so much! Really appreciate having you here with us ❤
Nice to be home 😊😊 good luck.

Thank you! ❤Yes, I think the mold was likely contributing to my health issues for sure 🙊

It was a looong and productive day for sure. We're so glad to be back and sharing properly again. Thank you for the love and for being here ❤
garden furniture outside looks good for lots of sitting
Love all of your thrifted finds! ❤
Super work! I am tired and I only watched!
Haha thank you!
Thank you so much for taking such great care of this sweet boy. Can we help with his care?🧡
That's so sweet of you for offering to help. Thank you! For now we're able to cover it ☺

@@anneliesjoss Sorry just saw this! I'll send you the address through Instagram if that's okay. Thank you for being so kind! ❤
You made it 👏⭐️ 🎉 Hopefully you get to rest a little now! Take care and looking forward to the next one ♥️
if you put the bed frame on a few planks, you'll get enough airflow to hinder the buildup of mould underneath :) or pallets.. that'll work too :)
Insulated underneath the floor in the cellar ceiling.
And peppermint oil deters rats and mice
Luckily you lifted the bed, it's not something that you can easily see, but now you know to keep an eye out for it in other places.👍
"todays another day" 😅 you guys are living your dream and your both seem really happy. if you get hate comments in the future just know it's from jealous people.
haha thank you!! 🥰
Bienvenido!! Me encanta ver todo lo que habéis conseguido de segunda mano 😍
Gracias ❤

Your channel just popped up and I am so glad! You have wonderful style. Everything you have is beautiful. And hello from California 😊.
Thank you so much!! We’re so glad to have you here ♥️
het is geen crocheting (dat is haken ) maar cross stich (borduren ) maar heeel veel geluk op jullie mooi plekje
👏Courage !
I wonder why you didn’t settle in a warm part of Spain instead of the mountains?
Because we are very aware of how climate change is affecting the warmer parts of Spain and would like to always have enough water for our land to thrive 🙂
@@WaleandMe Yes , I think too many people are flying around the world too.
¡¡Se llama paspartú!! Bienvenidos a casa!!!
Gracias ❤
New subscriber here from Singapore. I enjoyed watching your channel. I like to visit your nice place if I go there. Stay safe.
Ah lovely! Thanks you for being here with us. We love Singapore btw ♥️

But…….did you get a potato masher yet…….??? 🤣.
hahaha no! Alas, next time.. 😅
@@WaleandMe a fork will do 😁
Cookie's skin looks like it could be an allergic reaction to flees, I've seen it before and it looks like mange.👍
That’s what we are hoping it is as well. The medication we got him is for fleas, ticks and other parasites 😊
You buy too much stuff!
And you paid for it, of course? That is why you have the audacity to be rude. Live and let live…
Today is my first time watching your channel. I love your humility ❤️ Do you have a personal email. I’d like to ask you some questions?
