1 YEAR TIMELAPSE: Couple Transforming an Abandoned Farm to an Off Grid Homestead

EVERYTHING we have done in a year!
One year ago we packed up everything we owned into our van and moved from Northern Ireland to a 16 acre farm in the mountains in the North of Portugal.
Join us on our journey as we renovate our home, manage our land and try to grow our own food. We are doing everything ourselves, living more simply and sustainably.
