I really need that pool yesterday. it was 88 deg here in Georgia (Atlanta area) where I live and my kid had a outdoor thing... for three hours. water/sunglasses/ sunblock, hats, helped but didn't do much as today I have a migraine kicking in :( tell Bea we all hope she feels better and we care about you both!!

[@avrilmair6807]

What about the chickens?

[@susie2024]

Hi both, really hope Bea starts to feel better now she is around family and friends, and enjoying a break away from it all. I also want to say that I hope you, Theo, are okay as well. No doubt you are carrying so much on your shoulders too and I take my hat off to you that you are still filming and striving ahead with the build. You both an extraordinary couple and life is tough - am sure you’ll get through this. Much love 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 😘 xxx

Take care the two of youxx

[@Jessi8074]

I had to laugh at the “dodgy” video comment. Also loving the swim shorts. You’re such a great friend for letting them use your power source while you’re gone. That’s why good things come your way. You’re great people and deserve all the blessings life has to offer. Hoping to hear from you but if not, still sending love and light your way 🥰🥰

[@thizizliz]

Absolutely right! Good people for sure!

[@MyNest20]

Well said, sending love

[@Yorky222]

It is lovely to hear Bea's cheery voice in the intro, I hope it is not too long before she is feeling better and we can see her in the videos. You are holding up well and I wish you all a safe journey back to the UK.

[@lyndad1255]

Every time I see Bee’s laughing face over the shower rail it makes me smile. So much joy.

[@RenayEmond]

I so admire you for continuing to work so hard when you must be worried about Bee. My love goes out to you both and Bee, get well soon xx

[@joanmcerlean7158]

[@markknott6477]

Good afternoon Theo and Bea. Hope you have a safe trip back to the UK 🇬🇧, time with family and friends will do you both the world of good 👍. Absolutely no rush for you to get back to the lovely barn you are both converting, we will still be here when you both come back refreshed and ready to go. Time is a healer so take all the time you both need!!! 👍👍👍

[@rachelpiscitell9993]

Missing Bea's beautifull face but im so glad to hear her voice in the beginning of your videos. Get well sweet girl. I to suffer from depression and anxiety. Hugs to you both. From upstate New York in USA.

[@enoughalready8337]

Theo, you are a freaking rockstar for doing it all while Bea has been recuperating!! Truly, you’re amazing! I hope that YOU get some much needed rest and recuperation, also. Your positivity and hard work ethic is inspiring, Theo. I can’t wait for you to be able to relax, you not only deserve it, you NEED it! Safe travels for you all and Happy, relaxing days ahead, also.

[@olgabombard6277]

We MISS YOU BEE! I'm glad you are getting to visit your family, family is everything!

[@Cariad69]

Ah Theo so glad you're both taking time out and regrouping with the family. Much love to you both hope Bee feels better soon love her x

[@creativelauri]

Theo, it was so nice of you to go 2 hours round-trip to let your friends borrow your solar panels & battery. I'm sure they really appreciate it. I'll subscribe to them as well; they seem like a lovely couple to watch. So excited that you & Bee are heading back to the UK. Please send my well wishes & love to Bee. We miss & love her but can wait as long as it takes. God bless you both.

[@cherirubio2768]

You are such a strong person Theo! Sending love and positive thoughts for your trip and Bee’s recovery.

[@catarinasilva1331]

It is a loquat tree! We call it nespereira in Portuguese. It gives a yellow, round, strawberry size, with a brown stone inside, fruit. If you are lucky the fruit can be incredibly sweet, but it can a bit tart as well, don’t forget to peel it to eat and please wash your hand thoroughly after eating because it can stain the skin! Enjoy your holidays 👍

[@RebeccaAnneTruly]

YES! We had a loquat tree in northern Louisiana where I grew up-LOVE them!

[@indirakuriyan9366]

We have loquat in India, too. Quite enjoy it during season.

[@nevkirkham7657]

Have a Loquat tree here in NSW Australia. Fantastic fruit, really sweet, but it is a rush to get them as they ripen before the bugs :-)

[@Cj-bw3hn]

Never heard of that type of tree. (I live in Michigan) but it sounds like a really interesting tree. I wonder if you can buy the fruit anywhere)

[@MikeEPerez]

And biwa (ビワ) in Japan. We've got them all over Tokyo, as well, and my daughter loves them. Surprisingly, we also had them on my grandparents' farm in South Texas when I was a kid. Of course, we were completely unaware of what they were, so we called them Chinese Peaches. 😅

[@maryhart637]

Who will be looking after the chickens and your equipment while you are away? It's great to have mates around. Their farm is beautiful! Theo, you cut a dashing figure in your new swim shorts!!😍Sending huge hugs to Bee🤗🤗❤️💜🌈 Praying for her full and complete recovery🙏🙏🙏 Stay safe, be well and see ya next time👋👋

[@linda4th]

Wishing you and Bea a wonderful holiday with friends and family. I believe it will do you both a world of good. Big hugs to you both xx

[@joyclymer7377]

Theo, you have the best attitude and you have my deepest respect. I’m still sending healing prayers for Bee.

[@julieparker9581]

Theo, you are doing such a great job ... of everything. Big love to you and Bea (and Bea’s mum!) ❤️

[@vonderdornburg]

Sending good vibes to you and Bea for your journeys, wherever they may take you. Love your place and lifestyle. Keep the faith. You guys got this!!!

[@theindieprojects]

Big love ❤️

[@anneliesjoss]

The swim shorts are perfect, bright and happy 😊. Enjoy your time with family, charge your batteries, and you’ll both be recharged, to come back to your land and continue building your beautiful home.

[@44buddhist]

I love you two so much and can only echo the words that others have already spoken. I wish you both, safe travels, peaceful and comforting rest, surrounded by the loving arms of family. You both feel like family to me and families stick together. Take your time and only return to your projects when Bea is well again. Blessings to you both xxxx

[@colleenm6503]

Missing you Bea! Glad your amazing Mom has come to be close to you. Fantastic job Theo! I cannot believe you are continuing to film .... hoping you are coping with it all under the surface. Sending you both love & hugs daily! Take loving care of each other and enjoy your time with family

[@heartlandokie4485]

Alpacas would love that land and they could make money off the fur and use their manure as garden fertilizer. It has a natural weed deterrent. Alpacas are also communal poopers, they all use the same spot for the bathroom. All you have to do is pick it all up and leave it a little in a different place and they will adopt the new area. This allows you to use the manure for both pasture and garden aplications.

[@futurekron]

Genius!

[@johntuno7340]

I wanna give you guys a very tight hug! I love how strong and positive you are Theo for handling your situations right now without Bee by your side all day. Everything will be fine and (Bee, if you're reading this) i miss you on the screen of my laptop and phones playing all together to support you ❤

[@jenniferr2057]

Oh, Theo, best wishes to all of you. Mental health challenges affect not just the person suffering but all those that love them. You sound knackered - Take the very best care of you all. Been there, done that, sending understanding and empathy your way!

[@CorgiFrizz]

It was nice to hear you refer to the old barn as your house. You generally say things like you're back on the land or you're working in the barn. You never just say you're home. I think that change of perception can really help in how you view the surroundings... It's home.

[@donnathecoach]

I love your sense of humour Theo!!! Sending my love to Bea and you - safe travels and I hope family time fills up your hearts and sends you home rejuvenated!!

[@ingridsterling2163]

You're a good man, Theo! Cycles of life and here you are managing the public part of your life so your sweetie can focus on her wellness in privacy. You are such a good team, you two. I love you Theo for loving Bee so well. And on any given day, I know I could and I would say the same for you Bee. You have each other's backs. xoxoxoxo

[@esthercutts4318]

Hi Bea and Theo. Bea its lovely to hear your voice in the intro to your videos. I hope you begin to feel better over time and especially spending some precious time with your family. Theo you are a champion. You love Bea to bits, and are so thoughtful, even more so at this time as you love and care for Bea and prepare the land etc for your trip back to the UK. You are both such hard working people and have achieved so much in a short time! Please both take care and many blessings and love from Australia. xx

[@violetflame88]

The Land looks so tidy and organized. You've worked hard to get ready for the trip, Theo and I feel pleased for you both to be headed back for a family visit. I hope it is what Bea needs to fill her up again. I sure miss seeing you Bea but Theo has does a great job making the videos and getting things done. Bless you both and my wish is that you both come back healthy and strong. So many people are cheering you guys on!

[@Fibs.Carlotta]

Your sense of humor is so on point, I have been laughing a lot through this episode.thank you for the joy you bring..send all my love to you and bea

[@susannovak8263]

It’s so nice to see the windows in your rooftop popped open - using what you’ve built ! Best to you both. 🌷

[@susanalbone5101]

I am awestruck with your enthusiasm for life. I know things are tough but to hear you laughing when you were draining the pool was very uplifting. I hope you are feeling a lot better Bee now that your Mum is as the ‘homestead’. Thank you again for your video it is much appreciated. Take care both. Dorset, UK

[@racheljoanfleming159]

Bee I hope it was a great reunion with your Mum. Theo thank you for taking up on a wander. Your friends have a lovely setting and seem very cozy. Wonderful to have plans.

[@kjfairchild9508]

You are a good soul, Theo. A talented videographer, and a truly caring mate. Thanks for sharing your lives with us all. Travel safe and may you both return, whole and refreshed, to your labors of love! Adios.

[@CarinaPiersay]

Hi Bee (miss you tons) and Theo!! I noticed when you were backing up the car at the lake that one of your reverse lights is out. Hugs all around! Hi Bee’s mummy!

[@clarepickering2223]

It’s been lovely getting to know Theo more, loved the hosepipe giggles! Loud shorts are a must 👌🏻

[@auntytutu]

Please remember we all want you to be well, happy and successful and you need to take care of your selves in order to do that.

[@jdeane9442]

You're so kind to lend your friends the solar. Their Frankie is adorable!! I miss my 2 long haired dachshunds who have passed. Such lovable, funny dogs. Theo, your swim looked so relaxing and refreshing. Hoping B is doing better and looking forward to going home to the UK

[@CandySoulAndSoil]

[@jacobedecruz5350]

I also noticed someone helping with the camera. Glad that you are not alone. Maybe Bee or her mom. Doesn't matter. You are being helped. Videos are a such hard task!!!! Blessings to y'all

[@pdarling6812]

Hugs and blessings to the both of you, Miss seeing Bea’s beautiful smile, let her know we love 💕 her. Safe traveling to the three of you, plus 2 fur babies🚐🛳

[@sheronbrewer4255]

Hello Bea & Theo! So happy you are going to visit UK. Hope you enjoy and both feel rejuvenated as you each have so much pressure to bare. I'm sure I speak for most of the Indie family when I say that it would be awesome if you both had a break from KZbin for a while!! Everyone needs a 3 week vacation at least once per year! I miss Bea and wish her the best. She is so inspiring with her beautiful smile and caring ways. Sending love and light to you both for happiness and a healing journey :)

[@sassyh154]

You have some lovely friends over there and it is great how you all help each other out... and deliver to boot... lol.. I hope you and Bea are going to have a healing relaxing time in the UK... How long are you gone for, I miss those gorgeous dimples of Bea's smile... Much love to you both and take care...

[@rssand6840]

That "Best Cat Dad Ever" shirt did not go unnoticed either! Love it 😸 Every body of water in Portugal looks so amazing. That giant water well was something to behold! Sending a best wishes "coin" into that ginormous well for you and Bee to have a safe journey back to the U.K. 💛

[@lloydwilliams8715]

Good morning Theo and Bee. Pleasant Sunday greetings from Jamaica 🇯🇲🇯🇲. Prayers for Bee and the family. Thanks for another interesting video. ❤️❤️💯💯

[@CJ-vk4le]

Wishing Bea a full recovery ❤️. Theo, If you want to take a break from filming maybe you could edit together some of your pass travels. I would be really interested in seeing what you use to do without having to watch all your videos. But still would be interested in seeing some short updates. Take care. Hold each other and take time for yourselves.

[@davevermaak8701]

Hi Theo, thank you for keeping up your weekly updates. It is great seeing all that is happening. A little green actually. We are praying for Bee, that she will be feeling better. It is really hard for her, as we well know. Theo please stress to her you are both loved by loads of people all around the world. Travel safely & Gold Bless you both.

[@pamelag.6664]

Please let Bea know that we love her and want her to feel better soon. Hopefully having her mom there is helping her to feel more like herself. I am praying for you both.

[@kathybowers9648]

Was so nice to see Bee she is so beautiful i hope she is doing all well soon. And you are a wonderful person be strong and keep on keeping on.

[@wakeupherewego7245]

I missed seeing your smiley face,Bea! I hope we all well see you soon. Please feel better soon. God bless! Theo you are amazing, Bea is lucky that she has you!

[@nancypatricio9972]

Your friends have such a lovely place. I'm happy Bea's mom is visiting her. I hope she starts getting better soon. Maybe what she needs is a big hug from his family and travel somewhere again. I'm happy that you are going back to the UK, at least that's something distracting from all the work that you guys have been doing.

[@onemorchatykathy]

Excited that you’ll are prepping to go back home for awhile. Still praying for complete wellness for our precious Bea. She’s blessed to have such a supportive and hardworking husband.

[@janp7943]

I was surprised to see a video from you today Theo. I thought you were off to the UK. You can take a break you know. We will wait for you! We are all cheering for you and Bee! Lovely spending part of the day with you. Take care. Sending love to both you and Bee!

[@teresaacinelli4101]

Keeping things all together by yourself must be hard. Nice job. You definitely deserve a brake. Enjoy your trip.

[@shelleydavies349]

Missing Bea. She helped me through COVID cabin fever with her cheerful disposition and the antics of your adventures. Take care! Cheers from Canada. ❤️🙋‍♀️

[@jaeykelly4739]

Sending the biggest hugs to you both! Lockdown has been especially tough and new restrictions and rules can be so mentally draining. After many years of awesome content. You both deserve the well needed break, see family, recharge your batteries and when the time is right you can head back to your beautiful land. Safe travels 💙

[@lyndabird9401]

Hanging there with you all! Prayers to Bee and Theo

Our lake was always like bath water after it rained. Miss those days. Safe travels to you and Bea and the kitties.

[@isabelruizalmeyda8069]

I just love how ridiculous (fun) you are together and alone! Your parents should get you another T-shirt with the statement “I’m in love with my Kubota tractor” or something like that. All the best going back “home” / UK “former home”! Lots of strength for both of you and for your families once they will have to let you go back to Portugal again. Huge blessings!

[@ldg2655]

Your friend’s place is nice! It has tons of potential, and SO MANY WELLS! And kudos to her for her veg garden! It is obvious that she loves and tends to it..

[@ClaudiaFox1990]

Sending love and healing to you both, hope the travels go smoothly 💕

[@CompostHeap]

Great views, the contrast of the very blue sky with the different shades of green and the dried grass reminds me so much of the south of France. You appeared more cheery today Theo and Bee's Mum must be so relieved to be with you both. As you get ready to come the UK, we are preparing to go to Poland to see our son and the grandchildren we have not seen for a year now. Very exited but so much formalities re Covid19. Best wishes all get better with Bee and a safe trip.

[@AJen912]

Their garden is so cute!! Imagine what you could do!!

[@tobybyrddash2322]

Theo, you truly are an amazing fellow. I know you’ve got the weight of the world on your shoulders right now; this too shall pass. Going home to take a break and regroup will do both you and Bee a world of good. I know you are getting Bee the help she needs at this time. You are both such lovely people, God will take care of you. I figure you’re talking the kiddos (Gingybear and Fernando) home with you, what about Bee’s beloved chickens? Your land is amazing, all of that beautiful fruit! I sure hope your friends will come and get it before it goes bad! Sending hugs and prayers to you both😘🙏

[@kirstenmc68]

[@cdancarina5513]

"Just look at that cute little face in the front". Too funny! I actually saw it just before you said the words. Another beautiful video, Theo. Those fruit trees? Gosh, I can taste the fruit; nothing like sun rippened fruit picked straight off the trees, in Portugal. Saudades!
