As a pro builder ans landscapper sometimes its frustrating seeing people mistakes, waste time, materials and energy, etc. But in your case, just see you willing to try, work hard, and keep on going, and doing it full of joy, its actually inspiring. You are doing great. Congrats.
Woweee, your sense of balance and spacial awareness is admirable. Teetering on the edge of your balcony puts me on edge. I’m so relieved when you’re done 😂❤😂
Instead of putting heavy tile on the balcony I would paint the floor of the balcony is bright colors. Maybe squiggle shapes.... Something fun to see to make you smile.😊
The otter is a spirit animal that can symbolize joy, playfulness, adaptability, independence, freedom, and more. Joy: Otters can help people rediscover their joy and celebrate it in everyday life. They can also encourage people to share in the happiness of others. Independence and freedom: Otters can represent personal freedom and embracing life with passion. Adaptability: Otters can represent the ability to find joy in life's challenges and navigate difficult situations. Inner child: Otters can represent the inner child in all of us. Reconnecting with your inner child can help you embrace joy in the present moment. So, I’d say the otter is the perfect spirit animal for Maya!
Dear Maya, I love to watch the progress you've made on your water land. You've worked so hard and you're going to have a beautiful piece of paradise that you can enjoy for the rest of your life. Thank you for sharing your journey with us. Your new home looks beautiful. 💗 Best wishes, Aviva
I think tile on your balcony is a good idea. Do the outward facing edges first. Then the put the floor tile down so they overlap the edge of the vertical tiles. That will make for a nice clean finish! 👍
Hello Maya, I’m exited every time I watch your videos and want to help. I’m a female with an off the grid van with solar so I’d be thrilled to come and help and be your next volunteer.
I love your dancing and joy of the life you are creating. I have done the same with my home. Hard work and creating your own home is soul rewarding, but the work can be overwhelming. Workawayers to help and talking to someone helps immensely. Keep at it. ❤😊
Awesome progress! I am always looking forward to your videos. I can only imagine with what satisfaction and gratification you will live your life on this land, knowing how hard you worked and with so much joy and also help from friends & family. 😊
Lovely footage of your visitor at last(the otter), he doesn't seem at all phased by you watching him.,so beautiful. You have achieved so much this spring/summer, and learned so much too. Congratulations Maya, you should be very proud of yourself.👏💕💕💕
for our sidewalk, we laid fern leaves, palm leaves and monstera leaves in our wet concrete and hosed them out when the concrete dried. it created a beautiful pattern in the concrete. love your content🥰
Well, I looked up your weather. If you are near Coimbra you are going to be cool and rainy all week. You had better think of some inside jobs. I really enjoy your channel. You have accomplished so much to be on your own. I know you have help sometimes, but that is a heck of a lot of work you’ve been doing. I can’t wait for when you get to live in the beautiful stone buildings.
Another greag update, thank you Maya. So glad you managed to catch the otter on camer at last! Balcony is going to be an amazing addition to look over the land 😊
My love I enjoy seeing you recovering that old mill, remember your biggest threat is the mimosas you do want to get rid of them all they are an invasive three that is very danger in fires authentic fuel, a digger will be the best to remove the roots totally. P.S. don’t forget to sponge the cement to give it a smooth finish.
Hi Maya, Great work on the waterproofing and balcony. Are you planning on living in the stone house(s) during winter? What more needs to be done to allow you to so that?
When the cement or mortar begins to dry you can smoothen up the surface with a wet soft flat pad. Usually, they are made out of hard sponge or polystyrene.
Maya you are quite the perfectionist. Isn't it fun renovating and using morter? love your process. How exciting. The concrete lintels and doors and window ways in the stone house are GORgeous and what an amazing job you, your helpers and volunteers did on the deep drainage of the stone house. wow, what a beautiful process...we call them praying mantis in US they are protected...Maya you have inspired me so much I went ahead and started my own youtube channel so i can share my property search in Portugal this winter when i arrive in Dec thru March to narrow down my search in North and Central then find a property. Thanx for all of your sharing. you have learned so much. You are now a professional Hugs. Gina in Upstate New York USA moving to Portugal
It looks like you need a self leveling agent to finish that off nicely. They are a little thinner and just run into all the empty places and fill it up and become flat.
Maya you inspirer me to do what I have to do. Yesterday I layed some concrete bricks and hurt my back but tomorrow I will get back to work. Good job on all that you do. I am watching from Trinidad and Tobago ❤
Hello Maya , I am glad you took some time out good for you .Just keep going the way you are and Remember it's your home and how you go forward is up to as we all learn as we go forward in life . Just remember family and friends are the best people to talk too .and they know you better than anyone . You take care of your health it's most important .❤
Maya, maybe those troughs at the end of your long building are for stomping grapes at the harvest time so you can make wine with your grapes. Load one of them with grapes and invite your friends to help you create wine.
I feel vertigo every time you are on the balcony with no railings! 😮Will you be adding a railing soon for safety? 🤞 I'm so impressed with all the progress you achieve!
Good job again, it's getting time for the windows and the door to the balcony. Wish you all the best and good luck, finding a therapist that can help you. Depression needs to be taken serious and it takes a long time to get over it.
Good morning Maya 🎉 well started the video with a dance, cool, more please. 💃excellent job on the pointing. Keep up the good work, you are doing so well. Tony🧐❤️🇬🇧 xx
Looks good except that top finish coat that you didn’t like how it turned out. Maybe you can find a friend with an angle grinder to smoothen out that area. What is your plan for the rest of the exterior of that building? I was wondering if you might just fix up the Mortar and then paint?
Hi Maya, do you have an Oven? I have an Omnia ( made in Sveden). You can do many things with it like an oven, especialy Pizza. We use it on our boat . May it is an Idea for you. Greetings Michaela from Kiel, Germany.

@@MarcShare4ProfitI believe that's more a reflection of yourself than anything Maya has ever showed us. From what I've seen she's one of the hardest working people I've seen on TH-cam, she's radiating love and respect for life and nature.
Dear Maya, if you’ve ever seen a 50 year old man living permanently in a state institution due to a severe brain injury from falling off his roof, you would never work on your roof or balcony without a proper rope and harness. This poor man’s life was altered permanently. It’s not worth the risk. Your Japanese friend was perched right on the edge of the balcony. I hate to see a lawsuit ruin your house dreams. I make no apology for sounding “extreme.”

Having an otter in the river is good sign It shows that the river is healthy and not polluted
The otter is a spirit animal that can symbolize joy, playfulness, adaptability, independence, freedom, and more.

I always love your videos each week. You can you your old tile, roff, glass to make mosaic on walks or as stepping stone.

Thank you Aviva 🤗
The mix of sand and cement is called mortar it is only concrete when you add the stones. You got it correct in the second half of the video!
I think tile on your balcony is a good idea.
Do the outward facing edges first. Then the put the floor tile down so they overlap the edge of the vertical tiles. That will make for a nice clean finish! 👍

Maya it looks so good, you are doing such an amazing job, with love from France!
Hi Maya,
Great work on the waterproofing and balcony.
Are you planning on living in the stone house(s) during winter? What more needs to be done to allow you to so that?
Thank you! It's still a lot to do unfortunately until I can move into the little stone house 😃
You are doing an amazing job! I guess this is the end of Season 2. I can’t wait for more to come

Thanks Maya for your vid 😇💟💟💟 Love and bless us all in divine light, good work girl 👍😁.
Wenn dein Deckel zu klein ist, kannst du auch Alu-Folie nutzen! So mach ich das immer, wenn ich bei meinem Wok einen Deckel brauche 😅

Honestly just love your Videos! Love from South Africa 🇿🇦🤍
I'm pretty bad at getting tents back into their original bags I know it can be done I just can't....I feel ya on that struggle

working hard and making progress. its great to see

I like to o look at you doing as a real constructor. You're strong and determinated. Congrats to all the progress you' be achieved so far.
Good morning Maya 🎉 well started the video with a dance, cool, more please. 💃excellent job on the pointing. Keep up the good work, you are doing so well. Tony🧐❤️🇬🇧 xx
You could put a dinner plate over the pan, for a lid
Maya add cold water with ice or soda water to make a refreshing work.
Glad to see your progress.😊

What is your plan for the rest of the exterior of that building? I was wondering if you might just fix up the Mortar and then paint?
How did you know what to do for the balcony? That is so cool.
She hired some very experienced local masons who told her what to do after they were finished with the initial work.
So cool and amazing love it 😁😀🥰😊😉🙂
Congratulations on your work!
Be careful with the rain 😄
So good seeing your progress. Yoohoo count was down..😂

There's an outdoor pizza oven at the Grill House next to Small House she's working on
You’ve come a long way in your skills 🎉
Thank you! ☺️
Good Morning Maya , you look great 👍🤠
Fine fishy footage, Maya!👌
Love that otter❤😊
We call them praying mantis. They are good to have around. They prey on other insects and help keep them in check.
I see! Just learnt a new name 🙈😀

Seria ótimo fazer assim, sim!
@@mayafeliz Fale com os operários que trabalharam na sua casa, eles podem ensinar-lhe essa técnica.
I’m very curious about the land that you bought. Was it a farm of some type? If so, what did they grow there?
You could cover pots with aluminum foil
Thku for sharing south africa
makeshift lid: aluminum foil!!
I've never heard of it called a sun worshipper - we call it a praying mantis on this side of the pond!
❤ from Canada
what was that splashing around in the water at the end??
What about getting a small 24 hp tractor

In the United States, we call that insect a praying mantis, which makes no more sense than sun worshiper lol.
Your little critter may like grapes
What's that your boiling grapes? 😂
❤❤😊
In the US, we call that insect a “praying mantis”.
Preying mantas
Lucky girl you got it going on
