Our current p̶r̶o̶b̶l̶e̶m̶s challenges

We installed 3 wooden decks to relax, do yoga, picknick or land your mini helicopter. They are made from 3 diffferent types of wood (Eucalyptus, Red Cedar, Pine) to see how they behave overtime in this climate.

A day in the country side of Portugal. Harvesting batatas and vegetables with our sweet local farming friends :)

We're using a Makita DUC353 18Volt Battery powered chainsaw + Makita DUR369A 18Volt Brushcutter. We have been using them for over a year, this is a review to show what we like/dislike about it.

Renovating bricks and windows in our old abandoned portuguese ruin

We went to a cork harvest and factory in Portugal. Here they grow and process cork into natural insulation materials. A beautiful landscape and product! Planning to use these boards in our Ruin.

We chopped an old dead tree into a table and baked Sourdough Bread

Trying to understand why there are so many wild fires in Portugal. So we are chasing up a few fires, visit the fire fighters and have a chat with an professor.
