We bought an ABANDONED stone house in Portugal...BUT didn´t have access!

Welcome to our first ever KZbin video @ TeaAndTinto. When we bought the house it had been abandoned for decades. The grounds were full of rubble. The old iron gates were ceased shut , and brambles, ivy and an assortment of weeds carpeted the mess. Our first priority was to transform the courtyard and turn it into a lovely space for parking the cars.

Greetings from Canada's most easterly province, Newfoundland and Labrador. Portuguese fishermen have been coming to our shores for hundreds of years. We feel a special kinship with the people of Portugal. Dozens of vessels of the Portuguese White Fleet would take shelter in St. John's from storms on the Grand Banks when I was a young fellow. I wish you all the best with your renovation.

[@TeaAndTinto]

Hi there in the Newfoundland and Labrador district. Wow that's so interesting. I didn't realise that history and connection with Canada . Thank you so much for sharing

Hi Kaye. Thank you for watching. We've had quite a bit of rain too recently.

[@johnnybgoode9588]

What a great project! We’re considering retiring to Portugal ourselves in a few years and your home is inspiring. Love the videos showing all the hard work you have been doing yourselves. We’re very interested in the costs and arranging of everything. For instance how you hired the people for the roofs and the shoveling machines. Maybe in the future you can address some of that? We will be watching! Good luck and thank you for sharing. From The Netherlands, John & Jenny.

[@TeaAndTinto]

Thank you John and Jenny for such lovely comments. We're glad you like our progress. We'll try to talk about costs in future projects. A lot of our contractors are local contacts, so networking is helpful. Good luck with your search 😃

Years of experience in construction , says , your drive is to temporary basis . it will sink in a very short time , reason being it has not been battered down properly and with very light coating of base . it will churn up into one muddy mess after a few heavy bouts of rain . just saying . from UK .

E, acho que seria interessante, não repetir a abertura do vídeo sempre Com a mesma história.. E, não dividam os vídeos em pequenos blogs, de vídeos anteriores, nos causam confusão e ficamos a passar o vídeo pra frente!! comece simplesmente e fale o mínimo possível.... hj em dia nós seres humanos, não temos muinto tempo para ouvir, seguimos trabalhando e vendo vídeos e, nunca temos muinto tempo para ouvir, principalmente coisas óbvias!! E, quando acharem q precisam explicar coloquem legendas, simples e curtas!! Este é o sucesso de grandes cabais e, olha que fico maratonando mundo afora!!
