Plant those fruit trees early. They grow while you rebuild. Cheers.

[@Montinho_Monchique]

Yeeeees! We already did and it works out 😬 Thank you for your advice 🙏🏻

Sehr schade das ihr die Videos nicht auf Deutsch macht.

[@Montinho_Monchique]

Wir haben darüber nachgedacht uns dann aber für englisch entschieden 🙂 wir hoffen dir gefallen die Video trotzdem auch auf englisch 😅

[@marcellebaudry5786]

bravo

[@MyCreativeCraftHome]

I think that you have bamboo not reeds

[@Montinho_Monchique]

I think you are right, didn’t know it when we recorded the video 😅 it is beautiful and gives a nice atmosphere, but is unfortunately very invasive. Not sure, if we will keep some or remove them all

[@melanieward6576]

What an adventure you are going to have!

[@Montinho_Monchique]

Yes 😅 we are still sometimes overwhelmed by all of this!

[@davidbutler1666]

Spectacular!

[@Przybysz44]

Plant olives, make olive oil. Extra extra virgin olive oil.

[@Montinho_Monchique]

We already have some on our land, we will for sure harvest them and make olive oil 😬

[@donaldmackinnon5779]

Just caught up with your videos so far looking forward to following your journey 😊😊😅😅 The project looks great and will keep you very busy for a long time. A plan is a must as you could get lost in so many projects, good luck.😅😅

[@Butmorebitbonks]

I bet living in an appartment is much more sustainable than this project

[@pizazazaza]

Came from 9 gag, here to stay!! I am living as a Student in Germany now, would love to visit your place when i travel to Portugal.

[@Montinho_Monchique]

With more infrastructure we will for sure have people here 🙂 give us a little bit of time and then just message us

[@johng1968]

9GAG brought me here, best of luck :) Hope I can come someday for some MTB time

[@Montinho_Monchique]

9GAGers are more than welcome! 🫱🏻‍🫲🏽 We will for sure have people there, when we have the infrastructure! Yes send us a message 🙂🌿

[@claudeross126]

Machines are needed

[@Montinho_Monchique]

Just wait for Update #4 😜

[@teresaquintinha7361]

Beautiful. I'm Portuguese and very glad that you felt in love by this land and give it a new chance to be admire again. Thank you. Be careful with the prevention of fires.

[@Montinho_Monchique]

Thank you so much! Portuguese people are always so kind and helpful 🫶🏼 We are already signed to a fire prevention project, that will help us to get rid of all the mimosas and eucalyptus

[@whitby910]

I think the bridge is an aqueduct to bring water from higher up the stream. It is also much older than 100 years, I think.

[@Montinho_Monchique]

Yes, you are totally right. It is an aqueduct with a water channel. Our neighbor, who grew up in this land said that it is at least 250 to 300 years old

[@Debser-f5m]

Wishing you lots of luck. I look forward to visiting one day.

[@Montinho_Monchique]

Thank you very much! 🫶🏼

[@julieftube]

Neat! Good luck, please dont ever touch the ruins. Very appealing.

[@Montinho_Monchique]

We want to keep as much of the Historie and Charme of the ruins 🫶🏼 it is such a mystical place

[@teamson2433]

@@Montinho_Monchique oh most definitly! Viel Erfolg euch! Falls ihr mal auf die Idee kommt nach Freiwilligen zu suchen, gib gerne Bescheid :D

[@SerendipitySharon]

What a wonderful property and you have great ideas for it. why not have lord of the rings type music to set the ambience of your vision? Yay, get rid of all that bamboo, more important than event the ivy and brambles.

[@Montinho_Monchique]

Thank you so so much! 🫶🏼 We are such LOTR Fans and this is a brilliant idea! Videocutting is still pretty new to me, especially with the copyright of the music. We will find our style hopefully soon 😅

[@SerendipitySharon]

@@Montinho_Monchique lots of free trademark free music sites on the internet. I suggest you make your videos as simple as you can because they take a lot of work and you are quite busy for the foreseeable future. 😀
