    The fado in the background was a great touch. 😅

    Prezado Joaquim Conde, me lembro muito bem estar com uma equipe do WDR3 ( televisão alema) filmar em Deilão, uma vila muito pequena no Concelho de Braganca, perto da fronteira para a Espanha no ano 1983, onde eles ainda não tinham electricidade, nem agua corrente do concelho. Visitamos e filmamos algumas mulheres que teceram tapetes de algodão e de lã com modelos tradicionais, como em Arraiolos. Foi muito impressionante. Algumas destas mulheres nos perguntavam, se era possível de nos acompanhar para a Alemanha. Eles trabalharam em garagens quase sem luz e em maio num frio infernal. E cantaram... E os tapetes foram belíssimos..... Lá agora tem tudo, mas talvez perderam algumas coisas. Bom de ver, quando não só estrangeiros da Inglaterra ou outros países fazem um tanto enforto de recuperar ruínas, Quintas abandonadas etc., mas também vocês se lembram das suas heranças. Me faz tanta pena, que poucos, salvo me erro, dos filhos dos emigrantes voltam e tomam conta das casas abandonadas dos pais.... Isto tudo tem razão familiar, mas é importante de salvar os fundamentos antigos e de estabelecer as casas antigas! Isto é muito importante, porque se não temos ruínas e blocos de massa e casas de retornados em Estilo Chalet Francais- Suisse, Schwarzwald ou então com entradas com Azulejos feiissimos, como se ve nas ruas de Ericeiro para o Guincho. Com os meus cumprimentos, Philine Meyer-Clason

    Your assistant's whistling is becoming an identifying staple of your videos Joaquim! The guy is always in great spirits, bless his ❤️! Kudos to great progress!

      They are used to doing that since they are off grid and radios need electricity they do the off grid thing of whistling 😚 🎶🎶😂

      @@mannyPereira29 They are not off grid...they were maybe 60 years ago, but Minho nowadays is a modern place, except for the culture and customs which are ancient...like whistling is... I am sure😃

    I love hearing you describe your grandparents home with such loving descriptions. I can see it in my mind’s eye the way you describe it.

      It can get pretty overwhelming for me, I have to pinch myself on occasion.
      Perhaps that’s why I rambled so much on this one.
      Thank you

    We take a lot for granted. Our family house was built in 1945. We had town water and two electric plugs. My mum cooked on a coal range which also heated our house and our water. She laundered our clothes in a fire heated copper tub and wrung the clothes with a manual mangle. I was 7 when she progressed to an electric stove and washer. Thanks for the memories.

    I love what you are doing with the property. Its great that you can cook fabulous meals for yourself with the fruits of your labour, and the stories of your childhood memories are very entertaining. It puts into perspective the house and the land and the effort it took for your grand-parents to live their life in this place that you obviously love so much. Such great progress in seemingly so short a time.

    Joachim I don't know what's more interesting watching the build progress or listening to your wonderful memories.
    I was watching you all dig the foundation for the connecting wall and I saw 3 men who took pride in their hard work all their life and compared that to young people of today and I had fear for all our heritages being lost through neglect and inability

    How wonderful to be able to shop for dinner in your own backyard. I love Garlic buds with zucchini, tomato and onion on pasta. Have a good week with your tour. The Lean-to is coming along nicely, It looks a good size too.

    Wow, Joachim, so exciting to be this far along with the house rebuild. I've been trying imagine its outline but couldn't cipher how what space relates to another, aside from your really solid lean-to structure.
    Amazing how your plantings are developing and yielding in time to begin feeding you. It's so cool as a city gal to learn how to do what during which season as you are doing.
    Wow, you're using brass fittings instead of plastic. Makes sense... the plumbing should last a long while with your stone buildings. Did you learn your building skills from your granpa?
    I also appreciated how lovingly you rehomed the cactus. It looks even more striking where you positioned it. We'll know it's happy when it bears plenty fruit.
    Also a fan of how your childhood experiences and dear memories guide your work.

    Good evening Joaquim. You've mentioned that you want to put cobblestone on the ground. The YT channel TheNewbys is also in Northern Portugal and they bought thousands of granite cobblestone and Mario delivers it on their farm. Maybe it is near you. John and Tara Newbys is beautiful people as wel as Mario . Enjoy your evening . Granny South Africa❤

    It is so sweet the way you talk about your Grandfather. It is very obvious your Grandparents had a large important impact on you and the nice man you turned into. When did your Grandparents pass away ?

    • @Joaquim_Conde
      @Joaquim_Conde  2 месяца назад

      I was pretty fortunate.
      I lost my grandpa a long time ago, he was 75 and was in my 20s. I had been in Canada for a while and far from him. I was much luckier with my grandma as she moved to Canada to live with us, she help me to raise my daughter, she passed at 98.
