I am so happy for you guys. I am German and I recently bought some land in the state of Bahia in Brazil, 40 Hectares. The goal is also to use 4 or 5 Hectares for living and the homestead in general with some cattle, sheep etc and for the rest of the land basically make it a sort of park. Gorgeous place. I am super excited. One more year in Germany and then Brazil here I come. Wish you all truly the very best in the new journey, I will be following for inspiration.

[@duncanb.a.s2886]

@@freeottis No, I really wont miss Germany, despite our great achievements, life here has become somewhat "surreal", to own land is a nightmare and the amount of control government has is disgusting. I chose Brazil because I LOVE the country, it is similar to Germany in the cultural and social rules in many aspects but different enough to make it a better opition to what I am looking for in my future, so... I cant stress enough how much I love it. Been actually inpiring other friends here in Germany to do the same, to look for a way out. Just having pretty well mentained streets doesnt pay for the social growing unrest I feel in the population.

[@kumarnishanttiwari7067]

it's like seeing my dreams coming to reality through your work. I always wanted to be a farmer but ended up being a doctor as the opportunities were not too promising. Not that i don't love and appreciate my job, it's just that there is something missing in my heart. I would love to wake up early on my farm, feed the animals, do tons of hard physical labor and most importantly being self sustained. Over the years as we became economically much stable, i started realizing that we have started way consuming way more than what we give back. Back to people, back to nature. I know and do respect the hard work you are doing and wish you and your family all the best for the future. Best Wishes from Germany

At 75 with asthma and severe arthritis, I will not be starting a farm though I will be cheering for your success. The lavender looks great and flourishes on impoverished soil. Could you use it as a cash crop so you would have an income source to buy seeds and plants? Even a retired accountant knows you can't grow or barter for all your needs. I am fascinated by your water projects. I live in Texas USA where water is a precious resource. Will you build cisterns, rills, terrace? Please post videos! I'm excited for you.

@@nataliamantaluta ciao Natalia! Io ho conosciuto il metodo no-dig tramite Charles Dowding, che a sua volta trae spunto dagli insegnamenti di Ruth Stout, Fukuoka e altri. Farlo nel nostro clima mediterraneo obbliga ad adottare alcuni correttivi fondamentali ma nel complesso direi che riesce egregiamente anche qui. Al momento penso di essere uno dei pochissimi ad attuarlo in Italia e per di più lo faccio solo a livello amatoriale. Spero si diffonda sempre di più nei prossimi anni!

I am so happy for you guys. I have been a subscriber for a long time and I go back to your videos many times for inspiration even during the periods you are not posting so much. I can’t wait to see what you do to the property. I am Portuguese and I would love to do a course at your farm some day if you ever decide to have one. Also if you ever need any advice or info about building and permits I would love to help you guys. I am an architect with 10 years experience, I worked in city councils which was a great insight to the ins and outs of Portuguese building codes and I have a massive passion for natural and off grid buildings. I would love to answer any questions you might have. Welcome to Portugal!

[@TheDutchFarmer]

Thank you so much! Appreciate it.

[@sannhetenskalseire8873]

That is quite cute. If the offer is legit and not someone who wants to be a leech. People definitely need to learn LOTS more about agriculture from when kids are Kids and there is no doubt all the people would be better for it. People can life without the use of money, like the past has proved, because the main Needs in life is FOOD and the bonus is Love! Love is not and might not be a need, but it is pretty great to have it, love for nature has to always come First.

@@sannhetenskalseire8873 It's a true offer :) I have helped a lot of people on Expat facebook groups over the years. In some instances I have gotten a client out of it after people decide to move ahead with a project that needs an architecture project. But I have helped way more people with questions, advice, assessments of their land regulations, etc without receiving a penny. It's a bonus if later I am the one that can have the privilege to design something beautiful for their family and help their projects get approved and built. I have a true passion for nature and for people. And as an architect I would love if more people built with more natural alternatives. I am even starting a Phd in September researching natural builduings with the aim to create the regulations for the techniques and materials to be accepted by Portugal and the EU. And I already have the experience of working with a lot of expats who came to portugal to live a rural life and to rehabilitate farms. I have clients from an aray of nationalities. There are a lot of people moving here from europe but also from the US, Israel, Abu Dabi, Palestine, I have seen it all. I am trully a fan of Moreno and his farming practices. If nothing else one thing is for sure, when he opens a course at his farm, which I hope he doese, I will be there. And I will be the one paying money to him and not the way around. Someone being fairly rewarded for a service provided is never a leech.

I asked like, how is Permaculture good and wondering if it is really sustainable or if it is like one of those things, like gas, that there is less or no benefits and only getting spoken about as "good" and carbon neutral bcz of this and that. I do not care to follow a "trend" in anything, especially fashion, only if it would be like some thing that was really carbon neutral and good and then you do it. Maybe that makes sense.

@@oleksandrdanylov6076 Yes, that is something I can imagine happening. You always have somebody that pisses in the river upstream I guess.

Awesome gozer! Gefeliciteerd 🎉 ik heb net ook een stuk land gekocht met precies de zelfde plannen! In het westen van Slovenië, en begin deze zomer! Kan niet wachten om je voortgang te zien 🌱

Congratulations! I wish you and your family the best on this new journey! Also, maybe you should start a few beehives? Sounds like you might have enough wild flowers to sustain some bees.

[@TheDutchFarmer]

Thank you! Bees are definitely on the list!

[@sannhetenskalseire8873]

Oooh yeah, definitely, there can be mostly be a raging success if Bees and more Trees are involved in this. Sure, humans can do some, but nobody can beat mother nature. So. He needs bees, trees, plenty of insects and so on.

[@emanueol]

Bem vindo !! :) Great work and surely plenty ideas to accomplish, one of them could be to organize hands workshops for people desiring to learn which could stay in tents, And could be from farming (small, medium to large), but also learning to cook meals based on vegetables. Surely this will happen in time so you become a lightouse beacon of green way :) Abraco
