Borgo Poggio Dei Fiori
Netherlands
เข้าร่วมเมื่อ 22 ก.ค. 2007
Hi, I am Bartholome. I am Dutch, born in Colombia, South-America. I have traveled the world working different jobs. Found my little Borgo in the Alta Langha, Piedmont, Italy back in 2020. Tucked away on a hill I envisioned my dream project restoring and renovating these ancient barns and farmhouse built out of original Langa Natural stone. My project consists of 3 seperate parts. The first part is the creation of a permaculture based Food Forest, the second part the outdoor spaces and terraces with a swimming pool and the third part the creation of 6 luxury, modern self-catering apartments with a bar and reception area preserving the original buildings as much as possible. I will call it "Poggio Dei Fiori". If you wish to come and help me, drop me a note!
LANGUAGES
Dutch, English, Spanish, Italian, German. And yes, I want to and am learning French.

December 2024 update at the Borgo: What you need to know!
Here is the december 2024 update from the Borgo in Piedmont, Italy. A week away, visitors, guests but most of all a really big clean-up. I finally reorganised that old workshop and my new workspace is furnished! Also finished most of my new kitchen in the common space and yes, I started to cook! Just the other night I had my first diner try out with friends and new recipes. And worked on the new direct booking website! Last but not least guys: Merry Christmas, happy holidays and a great New Year 2025!

Me, YouTube and the future at the Borgo ! EP 12
มุมมอง 2.8K28 วันที่ผ่านมา
The last couple of weeks I having been thinking about the future at the Borgo, myself and my relation with TH-cam. Although TH-cam offers fantastic opportunities I have decided to take a step back from videomaking in it's current form. After 4 years of renovating I am tired and want to take more time off this winter, concentrating on other things life at the Borgo has to offer. FIND ME HERE Ins...

DIY Wall cabinet for Wine display | EP 9
มุมมอง 2.7Kหลายเดือนก่อน
A DIY project building a wall cabinet for wine display and other local products for my Wine and Juice bar, reception area and common space for guests. After researching different wine bars I concluded that most of them actually use cabinets to store and display wine. The back wall resembels a sail bend in the wind, so I ended up building my own.

New wood stove finally installed | EP 8
มุมมอง 4.7Kหลายเดือนก่อน
The new wood stove is finally installed. Parts and connecting pieces ordered did not fit, so I needed to search for another solution. Apart from the color, the current solution for the wood stove with a T-shaped piece in the back in stead of having the exhaust on top, is actually a better solution. Happy the wood stove is working. Next connect the lights so I can work towards finishing the spac...
A new resident while plastering, pointing and painting at the Borgo | EP 7

I guess it's official: "There is a new resident at the Borgo". The cat is about 8 months old, male, castrated and basically abandoned by the former owner, left outside the window of my kitchen. We went to the vet and he's healthy. In the meantime I continued doing some plastering, some pointing and some painting. The wood stove arrived so that's the next part for the reception area and winter l...
Solving issues with the lightplan for another stone house
มุมมอง 2.7K2 หลายเดือนก่อน
While I have been working on another area of the stone house, I decided how to solve the issues with the lightplan for this room. A cove, a column with all the conduit running behind it. I can see the end result and I am convinced that this is the best solution for this part of the stone houses at my borgo. Added a bit of a drone view at the start. FIND ME HERE Instagram: borgo_po...

Radical change of plan for the fireplace | EP 4

A radical change of plans. After lingering for some time and walking in and out of the 'reception area', trying to imagine how it was going to look like, I took a radical decision concerning the fireplace. She is going out and I will replace her with a wood stove. Ceiling with insulation from wood in stead of drywall. After this changes I need some time to search for the wood stove and decide o...
Winter preparations and indecisiveness | EP 3
มุมมอง 3.5K3 หลายเดือนก่อน
Winter is coming and september is the month to organize wood and pellets. The wood, I buy it from a local farmer (km 0). I spent a lot of time in the future reception area, as I couldn't really decide about some things. The ceiling and floor to the apartment above are not insulated. The fireplace is losing a lot of smoke and the space always smells like smoke. Not a very pleasant thing to look ...

The intro today is a quick response to all the tips I got from the last video. I then started to clean part of the garden (therapy) just before the bog storm hit. And after that - and having some visitors in between - I started to work on the kitchen area. Small but practical. Will be part of the reception area. Even though it's small you still need to do all the same jobs to make it look prett...
"Dolce far niente", new hobbies and the next jobs | EP 1
มุมมอง 4.4K3 หลายเดือนก่อน
"Dolce far niente" or actually "Il dolce far niente". It's an Italian expression for "the sweetness of doing nothing". For sure I felt like that for many days. But then after the first week I was confronted with the reality of running a small resort with apartments. So I found myself exploring some new hobbies in the field of cleaning, washing, ironing and making beds. A good test to understand...
4 Year Transformation of Piedmont Farmhouse | Guided tour
มุมมอง 7K4 หลายเดือนก่อน
About four years ago I found this mostly abandoned, small hamlet in the Southern part of Piedmont, called "Alta Langa", where nature dictates the surrounding hills. The hamlet consisted mainly of a number of old stables and a farmhouse. Situated on top of a glowing hill, oriented to the south with a view of the valleys. For years I had a dream to create a project in Italy consisting of three pi...
