    What is so awesome is that you guys focused on the land and the food first. So many would have sought comfort in a house first, whereas you took your time to understand the land. Then you can finally build a residence that speaks to your symbiotic understanding of your land. Well done! Awesome work!
  • Bless you both for raising your 2 children around the garden, and incorporating them into daily life! I too was extremely fortunate to be raised by parents who encouraged us to be in the garden, and spend as much time together as possible! Your wife and yourself remind me of my own parents, in that they did EVERY project together, no matter how large/small. It was a very important example for my brothers and I, and has helped incorporate such values into our own lives, as well as, those of our families! It’s truly beautiful to see you work so well as a team and family, as you build your dream together! I wish you and your family many joyful memories, and much success in the days and years to come!🇨🇦☺🇨🇦

    My family and I have just bought land in the Castelo Branco district to start our own homesteading journey. In no small part thanks to you, we don't feel utterly underprepared 👍🏼🙏😊

    And here I am, watching this, yearning for existing in this way. And I look back out my window, staring at asphalt, walls and business

    As a Civil Engineer who has done plenty of topo studies... I really love to see this and the "fruits" of your labor, pun intended lol. Sending you words of encouragement, you got this :)
  • @ddrkknightt
    Man… I just recently started to develop an urge for owning my own farm. And then, by chance, I found your video, your ideas, your teamwork with your family. I’m definitely subscribing for more. Thanks a lot for all this amazing stuff and FOR ALL YOUR WORK! Your family also worked side by side with you. Kudos to them too

    Your work ethic and focus on productive use of the land is amazing. Europe needs many more young families like you.
