Patreon helps us keep this channel afloat, we are just students and every donation is needed to create these videos. ► / brosofdecay
In this week's video we take you on a tour throughout an abandoned farmhouse in Portugal that has been left behind since the 1970s. This place has all the memories from the former inhabitants left in it. The family that lived in this place was the family palettes, they where traditional Portuguese farmers who cultivated crops and made wine. They also had one son who got into the army at age 17, after this time there is nothing to be found over him in the home and upstairs a memorial to him has been made... We are gonna unravel the story of this place together with you. Come with us on this adventure x Lesley and Jordy x

I love all the little details in this video! I was going about my morning, planning on shopping for some clothes, since the quarenteen, I had I put on a few pounds. I became upset when I saw the line to get into the store and realized I couldn't go anyway because I forgot my face mask. I came home and watched this video. It hit me hard, too. All I was thinking about was clothes to buy, then you show the woman's black clothing torn by mice, I think of her life, and the need to go out and buy my own clothes faded. Thank you for sharing this, it's just what I needed today.

[@andreandre7055]

Ren Willsey - What a wonderful comment.

[@deborahrohl848]

A lot of clothes (new) do not have quality anyway unless u pay heaps still don't last i literally put my hand straight thru a long sleeve top just taking it off to shower and a hole in front have to throw out n buy a few more i have others years old still in use love n light

[@marcosgarcia2643]

Everything is vanity. This kind of videos provides an idea about our future. So many things that we don't really need, but is part of our vanity. I had travelled many times around the world and both rare perfumes, which I wouldn't find were I live. 10 years after the last one bought, still the flask in the middle level. Maybe in 10 years more I finish them. Vanity of the vanities!

[@dianestephenson]

Loved this video. I love also that you are not afraid to let your emotions show. You are so gentle with everything you handle and so careful not to disturb things the way they were when you arrived. I really appreciate that in both of you. Thank you for all your wonderful videos and for sharing them with us. God bless you.

[@sharonstuebi8181]

Boys.....i love you back. Im so so very proud of your sensitivity and compassion balanced with curiosity and the thirst for accurate history . Love from Grandma in Peru

[@tellmemorethx]

I'm 52 and laugh when you find something and call it old school or say back in the day and it's something I grew up with. The amazement you had for the small tin strainer and pan in the kitchen cabinet was too funny....those are still in stores today. I'm an antique addict, bring old pieces back to life and can never ignore an estate sale. Age is a funny thing when it comes to what each considers an artifact. Keep your eyes open for things that don't match the time period of the house. More often than not someone will move into an abandoned house for a short time period then leave some of their things when they leave and their things will look out of place. Best advice I ever got at the start of my journey was if you're not sure what something is or what it was used for don't guess or assume...take a picture (include any markings/stamp) and research. Honestly sometimes it can be the best part of the experience. When you find the true history of something (and what it would be worth today) it can blow your mind. Keep exploring....but stop making me feel old !!! By the way....I'd love to be doing it with you. I know it would be fantastic.

Sometimes the little places are the best. Their size isn’t so overwhelming. This was a charming little house; actually not so little when you figure in the attic! What’s the longevity on wine barrels? Could it have been from 1893? Wonderful explore! Thanks for sharing. Stay safe and healthy!!!

I loved your tour...but mostly, I love your voice, it is so soothing to hear in these hard times when we are so isolated and alone. Love you, man.

[@momredandjonny]

I can understand a prevailing feeling of sadness going through a long abandoned home with personal possessions left unattended but there is also such respect in the way that you and your brother conduct yourselves that I feel a comforting sense of remembrance for the departed as we follow you through looking at their everyday objects and their private spaces.

[@roseygirl1777]

I love how you shared all the personal things in the home. The more detail you shared the more I felt I could see the lives of those wonderful people that lived there. I think this is one of my favorite explores that you have done. Great Job! Sad about their son.

[@jjsmith8956]

I love the way you did this explore. So slowly and respectfully. What a great job! Thank you for sharing. Your U.S Nana

[@sandy12183]

I really enjoy watching your tours of these precious homes. The beads you talk about are called rosaries, each bead is a prayer

[@missj2045]

Very beautiful video. It's so amazing to have this opportunity to see vintage homes in Portugal. I live in Canad, and abandoned homes never last long here. This is really amazing to see. You are great tour guides. Thank you!

[@paulajaramillo937]

Decades ago when a person died , the members of the family (or the closest ones) had to wear black clothes for months or even, years. In Latin America, we still have that tradition.

[@andreandre7055]

12:18 - Imagine how the lady sat there, in front of the vanity mirror. Maybe for years, looking at herself, getting older, and trying to keep some fragments of youth. Sleeping in that bed, under this wonderful simple worden ceiling, after a long day of work. And still getting older, and praying to her God and the holy Mary, while falling asleep, praying and hoping for her house, her husband, she is missing, and still getting older, her only hope, to care for herself, and fighting against her declining life and declining youth and vanishing energy, with that vanity mirror. How many hours she must have sat on the edge of the mattress? You can see a notch there. You are so beautiful to me, did her husband once say this to here....? and she remembers it, maybe every day, closer to heaven now. And now she is gone, and all we see are her last footprints in a lost place. Her kitchen, her sofa, last things she touched, where she lived, her bed, where she felt safe in this world. We see her life, her breath, her values, and what was keeping moving her,... and living.... Her memories.... And all of this might be gone in a short time, in a year or so. But, thanks to Lesley and Jordy, a part of it will survive. And not die. We say, people are only dead when they are forgotten. And their life only vanishes when their heritage is gone. Lesley and Jordy are doing a wonderful work to keep memories alive on KZbin, of the forgotten men and women. Of their lifes and heritages, tiny moments of the past, a picture, a lost room, the little dreams of a dance of a child, who is long dead, and the broken hopes of a family, or the happiness in a big house and the laughing of a happy family, long gone. This is more than Urban Exploration. This is more than voyeurism. This is feeling and connection, and respect within it. And not to forget the camera work, fulfilling the words, the walkthrough, anticipating the moves, great teamwork. The soft movements of the camera complete and enhance the moments. The camera work is what we SEE, it’s the visual core. All in all, keep on, as long as you like. Your work is an enrichment.

[@Faffy58]

Beautifully written. You capture the essence and spirit of Bros of Decay videos. Imo, they are the leading urbex explorers whose fieldwork defines and demonstrates the power of narrative plus videography to ‘showcase’ the present human condition. It reminds the viewer to see worth in every individual’s life, beliefs, and work: what is left behind...matters...now and to what is yet to be. Amidst the depressing health and political climate in the world, it also gives me hope that as a retired researcher, my own small existence and work were not lived in vain. A definite upgrade to academic art/archeology/anthropology.

[@wendynardi657]

When you were looking through the drawers in the woman's bedroom, the things were so tumbled and stained it made me think: Ut oh, that's a mouse nest! It is good that you wear gloves! Another lovely video, dear boys!

5:50 the keys on the fridge are keys to the cabinets and the doors in the home I know because I am currently restoring 2 dressers that have those same keys. It is so they can keep money or important papers or jewelry inside them so when they go on vacation they can lock their important things in there.

Your videos NEVER EVER disappoint and this one is no exception. From the rustic taste in the beams of their home to that magnificent orange small tea cups and the lace shelf covers not to mention the beautiful furniture, they had some wealth which afforded them the little bit of luxury. So sad that this home is a remembrance to their child in a sad memory of him. I pray they were able to make some.peace before they passed away with however their son ended up in his life. Thank you so much for this walk in another family's life as it was.

It is lovely to see such a classic farmhouse untouched by renovation. It reminds me of my Grandparents place when I was a child. I believe the first thing you pointed out as a chicken coop was more likely a “dovecote” or pigeon coop. Nice job, as usual. Stay safe and happy.🖤🇨🇦
