Wow, gardening is a great form of exercise! You have lost a lot of weight since arriving! Not to leave out how fantastic the farm produces edible food!
Greetings from Croatia. I came across your video tonight and watched it. The whole time I had the impression that I was watching myself. My husband and I bought an old country house, about 200 years old, and we started right away with growing vegetables, that's our priority, then we started renovating the house, the two of us, completely alone. In addition, we now have chickens, pigs and one goat. There is a lot to sort out. That's why you completely I understand and share your joy. I'm only in my first year. I wish you many beautiful moments and joy and peace 🙏❤️
it' s great to have a companion who thinks in the same way as you do. I mean, both of you were ready to clear that abandoned land and to have your own fruit and vegetables. You guys are great! Inspiring story. Unfortunately, I'm divorced and it's difficult for me to dig, plant, etc. by myself. I do it, but it's really hard when you don't have a support and someone to motivate you when you're down. Wish you good luck , guys!
Thank you. We are happy we share lots of dreams. It is lovely to have a partner or friend to motivate. It’s nice to do things alone too even just a little. 😊
Hello Dan and Meraid, I recently discovered you, I want to tell you that I love your videos, everything looks so green, I love the house and you are very nice, thanks for sharing these videos, you have become one of my favorites from portigal without a doubt... take care of yourselves... Diego
Thank you. Sometimes it’s too windy and we need some music. My favourite sounds are the sounds of nature including the wind in the trees. If only we could share what that sounds life. 😊
How lovely to see that old farm turn into your beautiful home and gardens. You 2 are obviously wonderful partners, and it makes me smile❤. Thank you for sharing your hard work.
Watching this brought a tear to my eye. This is gruelling hard work, and both of you are totally committed. I’m full of admiration (not to mention envy) for all that you’ve achieved. Amazing and inspiring! I love the fact that you repurpose and reimagine everything. Congratulations!🤗🇮🇪
You two are aesthetic and inspiring. I am 76 years old.All young people should watch your videos. If only to understand the "scale of the possible ". What love for the land and hard work can accomplish.
Thank you for taking me along this never ending journey. Your friends are saints. Can't wait for your next progress report, but hurry up, I just turned 80. Ha!
You both worked hard enough and it shows, the Quinta looks just Wonderful, my uncle and auntie, are looking down and smiling , " Thank you for your hard work!". The water in that big well is very safe to drink, I drunk many glasses of water from there, in those days there was no bottled water, and I'm still alive , as for the little well , it terrified me as a child every time I walked up or down the stone steps that are beside the well.
@maryhauser6523, how wonderful that you knew the property when it was owned by your relatives. It is a blessing that the land is being cared for again. You must be thrilled to see the progress and remember your visits to the land. Blessings.
Tank you, Tank you, merci, merci de partager avec nous ce merveilleux projet !! Vous êtes tellement inspirants. J'attends avec impatience vos nouvelles vidéos !!🌻🌻
Interesting animals, I saw a ring tailed civet and even a pine marten. The abandoned hinterland of all of Southern Europe has a myriad of hidden surprises.
Fantastic work and good taste, provided by Talented British Couple in Center Portugal! God bless You, Health and keep enjoying the beauty of "Terras Lusas"! p.s. Be resilient and safe of forest fires!
Seriously, you are one of my favorite channels to watch now. I love that you love the land and show the importance of gardening! Keep up the good work. Can't wait until you get to the house restoration.
Excellent video! The place looks great! I truly enjoy sitting having a coffee and watching your progress! Alast my own garden is calling! The last time I commented the temp here was -16c ! Today it's 25c and we are dying because of the heat! 😂
What a beautiful journey. Thank you for sharing your story thus far. You are a joy to watch. Thank you for bringing life and beauty to this unloved piece of land. 😃🌻💞🐈🇬🇧
What a truly delightful story of two wonderful people who are living and learning at the same time! I wish you both all the success for all the hard work you both put into what you do. 🥰🥰🥰
You proved many things, that you can start a new life and find new goals while retaining some of the things people from the past have used. There is another British couple in Portugal that are doing much the same, with ecology and natural resources restoring land and homes once abandoned. "Work, Do, Grow" is their You Tube channel. Both of you have an amazing work ethic, a way to imagine a stone wall and build it. May this year bring far more satisfaction, good food, and certainly a thriving garden, grape harvest. 🇨🇦❤️
Hello from Alabama, USA. Love your content. You both are hard working folks, awesome team. Look forward to more exciting videos. Everything looks amazing.
Just subscribed what a great job you 2 have done ✅ looks amazing 🤩 love the food your growing ❤🌞🌱 And I must say it’s all about the story your sharing love it. ❤️
O progresso já é grande,! Parabéns. Vocês são excelentes, gosto muito dos vossos vídeos. Têm muitas ideias e estão a tornar esse espaço atraente! Sejam muito felizes em Portugal.
You both have done a tremendous wonderful beautiful job on this property. ❤. I pray God keeps you both healthy and prosperous in your growth of body and land. Just beautiful.❤❤❤❤❤
That was great! Beautifully put together! You two have done amazing things so far! Can’t wait to see what’s next! And what grows! Love all the gardening!!
Didn't join you at the start of your endeavours but will continue to watch with great interest. I do wish I had been able to do this but maybe 20 years ago!
It is a delight to watch your videos! I don't frequently comment but I always leave a thumbs up. Indeed so much work has been done and, among the many things done, the detail of perfectly restoring the old stone walls. One thing that I really enjoy is a property with its stone walls standing high. It takes much effort but it brings it's character in full!! all best!
Such an inspiration, I admire all the hard work you have put in, it can’t have been easy at times, but the results speak for themselves. Can’t wait to see how you tackle the renovations.
Wow! What an amazing life you have there. I love how you restored the land and planting anything greatness. Congratulations guys!! More videos Please 🙏 ❤
Bloody marvellous, I want to say how lucky you are, but its hard work really. So, the harder you work; the luckier you are. You have my admiration and respect. Well done.
WONDERFUL and such a dynamic and delightful couple ! Certainly seem to be sharing the joy of creativity, building, planting, growing and enjoying together. Dreamy
Thank you very much. We enjoy the peacefulness of hand tools as well, though we do use power tools to get more done and be a bit easier on ourselves. 😊
What an achievement! Your hard work , resilience, positivity and total enjoyment and enthusiasm are to be admired . You are a real inspiration. Portugal needs more people like you!
You are beautiful. Spirit,soul ,& mind. You made me home sick for my home land lebanon. But Portugal is peaceful. Will continue to watch. God bless you
Never seen you before ,l can't believe what you have done. You, too, are fantastic. I'll be watching you all the time to see how your progress goes. Good viewing
Meraid and Dan!! love, love, love your channel! ❣💞💚 Your enthusiasm, planning, knowledge, care, thoughtful attention to each detail, appreciation for old things with ideas for repurposing, enjoyment of nature and gusto for all that this new life is bringing you, and so many other characteristics are what makes me look forward to each of your new videos. Bravos! 👏👏Saude! 🍷🍷
A great record of two years of honest graft. BZ (Royal Naval parlance for "well done") to you both. You more than deserve your successes. We wish you a third year in the same vein as the previous two. Glenys and Fred Chase in SW France.
Thank you for sharing your amazing journey. Wonderful transformation! You guys have really brought that beautiful abandoned land back to life. Well done❤👏🏽

It’s great, Linda. We always sleep well after a good day on the Quinta. (Farm). 😊
Well done, but I think a few machines might have helped, certainly a scrub Cutter, Chain saw and an excavator ! --
Super, greetings from Poland, from our farm...
Thanks and welcome 🤗

Eline emeğine sağlık bu güzel video için kolay gelsin hayırlı işler....👍👍👍👍
Thank you 😊
I love that you allow us to listen to the healing sounds of nature, and that you do not add music!!!!
Thank you. Sometimes it’s too windy and we need some music. My favourite sounds are the sounds of nature including the wind in the trees. If only we could share what that sounds life. 😊
Made me happy watching you bring back that property. Clearly a labor of love.
Thank you. We do love restoring our land. 😊
The two of you are amazing! what a paradise you have built. I cannot wait to see what you do with the house!

Brought a tear or two to me too when putting the video together. 😊
We just started our journey with a ruin in Mafra (40min from Lisbon). A lot of job work but worth it.
Awesome 🤩
You two are aesthetic and inspiring. I am 76 years old.All young people should watch your videos. If only to understand the "scale of the possible ". What love for the land and hard work can accomplish.
Thank you, Saleem. 😊

LOTS OF WORK...lots of money....and without Dan's skills it could never have been done....but..yours is a wonderful journey of life
Thanks 👍
Nice update, it's only when you look back like this you see how much has been done.
Yes it does. Quite an emotional video to make as we look back at everything. 😊

We often wonder at all the work that was done here especially as we know that the land parcel was much bigger back then. 👍😊
Wonderful record of all your hard work thanks for sharing 🌺
Thank you too 😊
Love the fact that you are not spring chickens out there working! Have subscribed! Thank you fore inspiring the older generation!
Welcome to this lovely community of subscribers. Thank you 😊

You have time.
I pray that you two live the best of your lives in that great home of yours. I hope you could enjoy more the fruits of your hard work and labor. ❤❤❤
Thank you so much 😊
Wonderful work you did there
May god bless you both with more happiness and abundance and prosperity.
