Finally we’re uniting the old
Finally we’re uniting the old with the new on our abandoned stone cabin & finishing the brickwork render! In a DIY renovation, some weeks are daunting & some are so so satisfying - well this week, work on our old farm house was both those things!
The prospect of rendering the exterior brickwork on the little stone house has intimidated us for a while, but we found a 21st solution that we hoped was going to stack the odds in our favour & make this job a success! But we still had big doubts. Will it even stick upside down? Can two building amateurs pull this off with any finesse!? What do we do if we mess it up? Unfortunately the only way to find out the answers is to dive in at the deep end!
As well as rendering the stone house, Victoria continued with the never-ending task of land maintenance on the farm ahead of the imminent summer deadline. We also enjoyed our first harvest from our new little vegetable garden - the hard work is starting to pay off & we’re finally tasting the fruits of our labour! 🥕 🥔 🥬 🍅 In between building work, Teddy & Poppy showed us their support & that they’re ‘in it with us’ 🐾 (Victoria’s face got a bit too excited 😂)

Also say hi in the comments! We'd love to hear from you 😊

We're Ricky & Victoria 👋 We're slowly bringing an abandoned off grid Portuguese farm back to life & transforming it into a beautiful homestead for us & our two rescue dogs Teddy & Poppy.
We both agree that we’re not experts in anything that we do here, however we don’t let that stop us from giving it a try. We live our life by trying. We live our life by doing. We live our LIFE BY LIVING.
