Off-Grid in Portugal: Living in a Magic Valley
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 окт 2019
- Bees, waterfalls, fruit trees, yurtlife on steep hills, a messy garden, rawness and feline cuteness! All in Magic Valley where Haico and Else worked hard to create a place to not only reduce their ecological footprint, but to give something positive back to the earth. It took us a long time to release this video, and in the meantime a lot has changed. The dream is still very much alive, but in a different format. Haico about this video: “You can see the build-up of our land in the summer of 2018. Our first year! What a lovely time. So much energy and enthusiasm. Unfortunately we, Haico and Else, didn’t make it as a couple. Half 2019 we mutually decided to go our own way. I will continue Magic Valley. Else went traveling and will possibly find her own place in the region.”

Leven in een Magic Valley
Bijen, watervallen, fruitbomen, leven in een yurt op een steile berg, een chaotische begin in de tuin… deze korte film toont rauwheid en romantiek van het leven hier. Het is er allemaal in Magic Valley, de plek die de Nederlandse Haico en Else kochten in 2017 en waar zij niet alleen hun persoonlijke ecologische voetafdruk willen verkleinen, maar ook iets positiefs aan de aarde willen teruggeven. Het heeft erg lang geduurd voordat we deze video konden publiceren en in de tussentijd is er veel veranderd. De droom is nog steeds erg levend, maar krijgt vervolg in een andere vorm nu. Haico over deze video: “In dit schitterende filmpje zie je de werkzaamheden op ons landje in onze eerste zomer. Wat een heerlijke tijd was dat. Het is kort na de verwoestende bosbranden, maar de energie en het enthousiasme spatten er vanaf. Helaas hebben wij, Haico en Else, het als koppel niet kunnen volhouden. Vanaf half 2019 hebben wij gezamenlijk besloten om ieder zijn weg te gaan. Haico gaat verder met Magic Valley, oa als imkerij. Else gaat een tijdje reizen om daarna mogelijk in de buurt haar plekje te vinden”.

Welcome to "my" beautiful country! I wish you all the luck and thank you for taking care of this forgotten lands. Keep the good work ;)
Thank you for bringing some joy and simplicity to this crazy world. Well done and best wishes for your future co-creations 👍😁💚💪🤸🌱🍀🌷
So nice and heart warming to have watched this clip from RUclips. Just love people who feel and enjoy their connection to the earth. It is of course, as with all 'pioneers' that the earth pays a price to accommodate these people. Trick is how to balance nature and mankind in a wholelistic way that does not displace or harm too much of the natural world people want to enjoy living in . Thank you for uploading Off- Grid In Portugal!
One day, this is dream of ours. Hopefully already next year 🙏🏿
Love your video!! 🌿
Great to use the water energy to create electricity, perfect!
I would love to visit the place some day! Amazing!
I mostly didn't have clue what was being said but you guys look so happy, so content.
Was great to see :)
Hehe thanks. There are subtitles, did you know? You can turn them on by clicking the captions button.

I get them on my phone however the TV is not so keen to help in that respect
I have subscribed, I want to see more of your new lives and adventures. Where in Portugal are you?
Watch out for the forest fires
Also in mobile phone??
it all looks great living in a natural environment is a good sign good for life.
Good job carry on all the best to all.
Crazy how I found your video searching for ways to get independent cause I’m trapped in a suffocating system in Portugal. I work all day and don’t have time for my family and always dream of moving to a place like that. Right now I am trying to save money while it is virtually impossible but will try anyway... this is a wonderful process that is impossible without money when you live paycheck to paycheck . Am trying to decode the whole process anyway 🤔
I wish you the best!!
Please take care about yours and mine beautiful Portugal 🇵🇹❤️!
cute kids....take care of Nature and Nature will bless and take care of you..
yeah yeah! 1 year of vlogging and am sure you go back to where you came from haha!
Dag luitjes ik heb jullie kanaal gevonden dankzij The Knot Man wiens kanaal door RUclips voor 7 dagen is gesloten. Ik ken 'm 'n aardig tijdje via RUclips. Fantastisch plan van jullie en als ik jullie mag adviseren, plant peulvruchten, heel erg gezond en je hebt aan een weinig genoeg want het vult goed, de reden dat ik dit zeg is omdat de tijd waarin we nu leven alleen maar slechter en slechter wordt en omdat de boeren in Amerika hun gewassen niet van het land mochten halen zal er wellicht heel snel honger komen en mochten ze je gewassen plunderen, dan heb je mogelijk nog genoeg bonen, die je dan maar ergens moet verstoppen, het is overeenkomstig als de oorlog die in Amerika heeft gewoed tussen noord en zuid. De soldaten namen het verse voer mee en de peulvruchten lieten ze achter, terwijl die juist heel gezond zijn. Ik wens jullie heel veel succes met jullie onderkomen!!
What is it with all these Dutch people moving here :) Maybe they want some hills? Great video!
More ganja farms 🤣
@peru nut the answer is easy : getting away from the stress, and too many people living in a small country, all focused on making money. Over here people are more relaxed, the climate is better, people take time to enjoy their life and are more satisfied with what they have. And Portugal has hills 😁🇵🇹
Back to the 70’s
Eu acho que nosso governantes deveriam ajudar todos vós, pelo belo trabalho que estão a fazer.
É assim mesmo.
i was born in Portugal and moved to London in 1991 but i plan to come back and do the same as you are doing. by the way, where is the place you are staying? thanks and be happy. enjoy life
My family used to live in Portugal, until, about 1492..
Are you still in london or back in portugal? I am in england and want to do that sort of thing.
I used to lived in Portugal, until around 1493..
I’m moving to Portugal and I want to meet these smiley happy people
Hi Suzi, that's so nice to hear! My husband and I (and our little one) are also planning to move there. Did you already find a piece of land? If you would like we can keep contact :D my insta: Denanomad
We have not bought yet. We had the first meeting with the authorities this week. I’m soooo excited. I’d love to keep contact with you. That would be magic as I am nervous to move where I don’t speak the language so someone who can understand me will be perfect. Thank you
@@suzipam1234 beautiful! I'm so happy for you! I really want to communicate more! Haha if you don't have insta.. Email : Dena.shamsyoga@gmail.com :D
