Temporary has a whole new meaning but being comfortable is great.
ОтветитьHow will you shower during winter? Or even just use the toilet in the night?
ОтветитьVery well thought out ,it looks pretty much like what you ended up with.👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️
ОтветитьI think I can remember bits of this and I think that I thought that a wooden house/workshop was a good idea for the entire circle. Interesting in the fact that you thought that you would be in it for 24 months. I think that time is a piece of elastic, it stretches as time goes on. Thanks for posting
ОтветитьWhat an excellent example of thinking outside of the box to make your dreams come true. You two really are an inspiration.
ОтветитьThe circle would be a great place for a geodesic dome.
ОтветитьI have nothing to say really, but I appreciate your content, and wish to help with the yt-algorithms.
ОтветитьGreat refresher!! To see how much work the two of you have accomplished is impressive!
Hugs from 🇨🇦
I didn’t remember this stage anymore. Good update for me! BTW, I follow a Channel called Finca Life where they just upgraded their solar system for cloudy winter months. It was interesting. They might not use as much power in their daily life but have to power a whole water filtration system.
ОтветитьAmazing. Can't wait to see.
ОтветитьI didn’t know there was a threshing circle under there!
ОтветитьCool...... also I have never seen a threshing circle like that. Really interesting how different countries do different things traditionally
Ответитьwhat memories of when they started, and how good it turned out
ОтветитьWhat was the thrashing circle used for?
ОтветитьI have to say I am in awe of your sketch up skills
ОтветитьYa'll have come so far! Here's to future projects and steady progress!
ОтветитьReally liked this. I’ve watched the amount of digging you’ve done, have you ever used or seen a maddock, for breaking up soil, digging trenches, holes etc. I’m sure Kylie would have grown up with them in Australia. They are like a pick, but with flat blades, and can be filed or ground to fix the edges if damaged on stones etc.
ОтветитьLove your channel ...
ОтветитьOnce again I'm in awe of both of
ОтветитьIn awe of both of you,you are clearly thinking ahead in everything you do. I look forward to all you new up dates. Keep up all the great work 💙 front USA, California
ОтветитьThis was really interesting to go back and see your plans from the beginning. It was extremely useful. Lesson for me, as hard as you both work on your property, when Guy was saying the tent was to be your home for 6-24 months I realize that things can take quite a lot longer than planned. Your off grid home is comfortable and functional. Your planning was on point. Cheers.
ОтветитьI take it that a freeze is not possible during their winter ?
ОтветитьLooking back now, do you think that a caravan or just a bigger shed would have been a better option?
ОтветитьI think a geodesic dome would have been an option.
ОтветитьWow it this was when I started to subscribe thanks for the memories.
2 years huhh. Seems like yesterday.
A long yesterday. Lol.
Great to see how it all started again... you have both come a long way over the past couple of years.
ОтветитьYour 'temporary accommodation' solution, or something similar, would suit so many people restoring an older property. Combining outdoor living with solar power, a temporary water supply and a temporary septic tank/camping toilet and you are all set to live on site and begin work.
One very important question, what are the legal restrictions? I know that will vary from country to country, but thinking only about Portugal for now, did you need local permission or does the temporary nature of your construction mean that you could just get on and do it?
Why do you call it off grid when you bought the property and are following city rules?? That is not off grid
ОтветитьHello, Kylie and Guy. Thank you for sharing the planning process of your temporary accommodations. You two put so much into the planning of all that you do.
ОтветитьFascinating look at your decision making. Obviously it worked out well as we know. Dying to hear from you whether you would do anything differently in hindsight having had the set up for two years.
Ответитьto this Californian, the threshing circle looks like our typical kiddie wading pool, so I'm curious about it collecting water in the rain--does it drain off quickly so you aren't living over a pond? I'm guessing it must, since the wood deck supports need to be dry so they won't rot.
ОтветитьLoved rewatching this whole process
ОтветитьGreat video
Thank you for sharing 😁
The circle thresher is a throw back to Portugal's original Celtic heritage. Even though runover by the Romans, our Celtic ethos is still honored and remembered in many ways, including this one. We still have quite a number of Celtic sites and hamlets where everything built was circular including huts and agricultural areas so important for survival. The circle in Celtic mythology infers protection, and so it makes sense that where cereals were taken to & prepared, be within a circle of protection.
Ответить😄
ОтветитьI would love to see the deck building video
ОтветитьLove the way everything is thought through and planned but always open to change and adapting. A great look back in time 😎
ОтветитьHow are you finding your Victron system ?
Ответить👏🌟👍🍀💐
ОтветитьLooking back always makes your progress more impressive. 👍
ОтветитьWhat was the reason for choosing Larch as a lumber? I'm so used to building in wood but I'm nervous to use it here in Portugal with the bugs and humidity...
ОтветитьOnly discovered you now, so I am a bit late: did you check into the possibility of covering the shed roof with solar cells?
ОтветитьVery inspiring! We are a dutch couple sailing the world, with a dream for our "next" life to live from our own land, just like you do. We love the videos, thank you! Question: do you use any pesticides or how do you avoid bugs that eat the vegetables? Thank you!
ОтветитьFantastic idea
ОтветитьAh ha! Now I see what that circle was originally ❤
ОтветитьSo there’s been no problem with shower water doing damage to the deck wood in the enclosed concrete area?
Ответитьsry i posted somewhere a minute ago, i have loved watching your mini series and forgot to thank you for all you went through. i do thank you for your insight and time i just wondered if what i what i have learnt was true. best wishes in your future living
