    I embarked on the journey to turn our abandoned land into a green haven, building my own home, living off grid and becoming self-sufficient in terms of food and energy. The goal for these first years was to create a place more in balance with planet earth, to grow my own food and life a more self sufficient life 💛🌱🌸

    It’s messed up when your own family doesn’t support the type of life you are striving to live. It seems like they were willing to support their idea of who they thought you were instead of who you actually are. It’s their loss, not yours. You two are working hard to have the life you want and it’s bearing fruit ❤❤

      Well said @Native-Kitty!! It's very true..when family judges and doesn't support because your lifestyle isn't how they would choose to live just shows that the love isn't really there! As always, success will always outshine judgment and lack of support by the people who should really be standing by you!! It's sad for them..but we're here!! 💖 xo

    You do have a family - your online family - and I, for one, am so inspired by you both. I know we are not 'real' family - but perhaps it is nice to think that the 'extended' family is there for you in spirit if not in body.
    Thank you for sharing your journey with us all: the reality of the hardships you face - and how you work through those difficulties with grace is uplifting! The rewards of your labour are shown in your gorgeous photography and it is a real pleasure to see your visions come to fruition bit by bit.
    As a mum of three, in New Zealand, I watch you and am so amazed at the life you have both built from a piece of barren and bare land. If you were my daughter (and I am old enough to be your mum!) - I would be so very proud of your accomplishments, the resilience and efforts you have put in to make your dreams come true...

    Any time we step out of our cultures “norm,” we get pushback from others. But, it is the only way to discover who you really are and the life you want to live. I think there is a lot of fear and envy from others. Secretly, we admire those who are brave enough to go after their vision for their life. Which is why so many people don’t dare it and are miserable. Kudos to you both. Forge on and don’t let go of your dreams. You have created a beautiful life together and have so many plans that I can’t wait to see you accomplish. Love from Sebastopol, California❤️

    SPECTECULAR, BOTH YOU ARE. LOVE YOUR DRIVE. STAY ON COURSE & DREAM BIGGER. THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR STORY. I CANNOT IMAGINE YOUR FAMILY NOT SUPPORTING YOU. I LEFT MY FRIENDS, WORK, CHURCH AND MY PRECIOUS HOME TO MOVE TO ANOTHER CITY TO HELP SUPPORT MY SON AND HIS LOVELY WIFE. I WAS 50 YEARS OLD, TOGETHER WITH MY HUSBAND WE CLOSED THE DOORS TO OUR LOVELY HOME AND CLOSE OUR EYES AND WENT TO BE THE SUPPORT MY SON NEEDED AT THE TIME. I HAVE NO REGRETS. I FOUND A NEW JOB AND MADE NEW FRIENDS AND WAS THEIR FOR MY SON AND HIS WIFE. WE ARE SO PROUD OF YOU AND PEPE FOR ALL YOU ARE DOING. THANK YOU FOR GIVING US SUCH LOVELY VIDEO'S . THANK YOU, THANK YOU. MANY BLESSINGS. MUCH LOVE FROM THE USA.

    Eugenia, I am so grateful for your openness and vulnerability. I have delighted in your videos for the last few years and knowing that you've created so much beauty out of incredible hardship gives me the courage and will to keep pushing through my own current season of adversity. Not having support from family is a kind of heartbreak that I am all too familiar with and knowing that you've gone through something similar, are still fighting, and have come out on the other side is so inspiring. You don't look like what you've been through, and it motivates me to believe that better days are coming for me as well. Thank you!! It means so much to see you fight and win!

    Without imparting judgement on your parents, one thing I learned in probably my 20s is something your therapist probably told you. You cannot control or change other people this includes parents and relatives. You can only control how you react to situations. So after I learned this what they say or do may aggravate or annoy me a short time but then after I leave I don’t obsess about any of it till the next time. 😊❤

    I took a job overseas for 9 months and sold my car and left my belongings at a friend's house for that time. When I returned, my friend told me his mother decided to throw out all of my things so she could have more room. I lost everything. Though many years have passed since, it is still an awful memory. I have since done much more than I ever imagined, as the only way forward was to leave things behind. It's difficult to climb mountains when carrying too much baggage. So good to see you guys building a beautiful life of your own making.

    My family always told me that they loved me when I was young but then they never called, never checked on me. I was always reaching out to them and then one day I stopped. My father had died when I was a young man of 23. My mother hadn’t spoken to me since I was 21 and then only because I wrote to her. I lived my life the best that I could. Now I live to enjoy each day as it comes.

      No soy ni psicóloga ni terapeuta, solo una persona con cierta edad y experiencia en la vida. Pero diría que vuestra familia hizo lo que pudo y según sus creencias. No lo supieron hacer mejor porque probablemente tampoco tuvieron alguien que les enseñará y les guiará .Deberíais estar orgullosos de haber soltado esa mochila emocional familiar. No les tengáis resentimiento, si no más bien compasión. Ánimo que sois fenomenales!

    Eugenia, I don't often take the time to write comments but definitely wanted to write you few words after watching this video. thank you for being so open and vulnerable. I always have been really inspired by the life you have created for yourself, but even more now when you have an idea of the journey. I can relate to the hardship of not feeling supported by family, you both should be so proud of what you have built. You are so talented and hard working, love you work and hoping to keep following you on your next garden projects.

    What a remarkable life you have given the trials you’ve faced. I had no idea things had been so tough on you, I just assumed you two had decided to drop out of the life you had (although I had no idea what that might have been). Seriously impressed with everything you do, the van conversion, buildings, garden, your food and now your house. It’s awful you don’t have the support of any family, on the other hand you have a huge TH-cam family, speaking for myself and I’m sure many others, we support you all the way. You’re bright intelligent determined people, don’t let anyone say anything different. You are an inspiration for many many people. ❤

    Thank you so much for this timely lesson. Now I know that it is never good to make assumptions about how well other people are doing. I’ve always thought that I needed to get my sh*t together in order to have the “dream” life, you guys have- but you’ve now taught me that it is in the messiness, the act of moving through the challenges and setbacks- that the “dream” life emerges. We just need to get up and do something. Wishing you both all the best ❤

    Happiness is not the desination, its the journey. You have both gound happiness in each ither and living like you do. Many will not like nor understand. My family were also a journey in my life full of pain and misunderstandings. 🙏 This was a huge hurdle that you have now jumped and ita behind you. Though you may not meet and hug your youtube followers, i will talk for myself here in the uk and say, i am with you on your journey and i support you and love the fact you are rising from the ashes and have so much love for you both being true to yourselves. Your path 'is' a beautiful one. Not everything comes easy in life, and usually i find the things that are worth it, I've had to work harder for on may levels...
    You've got this. You are proud of yourselves and that's all that matters.

    Me has echo que se me encoja el corazón.... vivi muchos años en camper, tengo un terreno off the grid y acabo de cumplir el sueño de mi vida que era tener un hijo desde el primer mes de embarazo mi familia no me visitó y cuando nació solo eran malas caras hoy dos meses y picó que tiene mi bebé ellos no han aparecido ni preguntado o ayudado . Sola completamente . Lei hace poco cambia tanto que los que te conocian no te puedan ni reconocer , así decidí quemar mi antiguo yo para ser mejor para mi hijo..
    Me duele pq ver crecer a un niño es algo que no te puedes perder y ellos han decidido no verlo para hacerme daño a mi.
    Os deseo lo mejor y estate orgullosa de lo que habéis logrado tu y pepe yo estoy orgullosa de mi , no necesito que nadie venga a decírmelo.

    The Lord goes with you always,
    Foot Prints in the Sand
    One night I dreamed a dream.
    As I was walking along the beach with my Lord.
    Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life.
    For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
    One belonging to me and one to my Lord.
    After the last scene of my life flashed before me,
    I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
    I noticed that at many times along the path of my life,
    especially at the very lowest and saddest times,
    there was only one set of footprints.
    This really troubled me, so I asked the Lord about it.
    "Lord, you said once I decided to follow you,
    You'd walk with me all the way.
    But I noticed that during the saddest and most troublesome times of my life,
    there was only one set of footprints.
    I don't understand why, when I needed You the most, You would leave me."
    He whispered, "My precious child, I love you and will never leave you
    Never, ever, during your trials and testings.
    When you saw only one set of footprints,
    It was then that I carried you."

    Saludos de Vieques, PR...I am so grateful for this particular video. What grabbed me was the comment you made of how you always felt ashamed of not having a loving supportive family. I too have struggled with that very exact same thing. Shame is like a death sentence...it has to be rooted out of ourselves. I am on the other side of that shame but it was not without help and support from the family I and my husband have created for ourselves. I applaud all you have shared here and my hope is that you continue to share. I have been so inspired by you and Pepe. We hope one day to be able to visit your little piece of paradise. ....P.S. I love the cookbook and have made almost every recipe!!! Thank you and many blessings to you both!!!

    Wow, this is so powerful. I can relate to everything you went through here. My husb6and I have been on our own with no help. We built an amazing life but had to start over, again with little to no help. We are stronger than ever for it. We even lived in a garage apartment for a while. Even with allnof our degrees and success itnwas difficult to explain to family why we were moving to a new place and doing so many new things but we know its what we are meant to do. We lost alot of relationships through thisnprocess and are still going through it now. Thanks for letting me know there are other "palm trees" out here growing strong through each storm. Many prayers to you both, keep moving forward. You arent alone. ❤

I continue to be in awe of what you and Pepe are creating and the connection you are building with those of us around the world who now feel invested in your success and are wholly behind you. Sharing your journey in the way that you do requires a willingness to be vulnerable and that is a great gift that you offer. We are all finding our way and our place in the world, at all stages of our lives. And the world now feels particularly challenging to comprehend. You are both part of a new vision for land stewardship and community building and finding the courage to follow a vision. I cannot thank you enough. From Seattle, my heart to yours.

I often wonder how my life would've been different if I had stopped practicing medicine, and devoted my full time to my non-medical endeavors. Your comments about how BetterHelp has helped you to better manage stressors also resonated with me. I may take a look at the app. I did sign up, however, for Aura after watching another of your videos. I love it, so thank you!

And year I faced the worst burn out in my Life. 2024 I decided to give myself 3 months to see if I could stay at the same work place and I felt my energy depleting too fast for my liking. So now I am on my last week at work and excited about the unknown. I am paying more to how I feel more than what I have to do to survive.

    @alwaysbekindlove 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Living on your own terms of an act of courage. Placing boundaries as an act of courage. And sometimes we lose those that we thought we’re going to be there for the long run. More than ever I recognized that not everyone will be. And that’s OK. Letting go is OK. Letting go of the expectations that people will be there for us. And it’s sad really because we need each more than ever. And instead helping one another we hurt one another. But it is really hard to help when it’s only one-sided. Eventually the relationship frays.

    What an ordeal you have been through! This world is not set up for creative people like us to thrive and grow. And most people are in survival mode - which is why they hate seeing people like us live our dreams. But our time is coming. We just have to not think our ideas or ourselves are failures. We are beautiful rare plants that can't flourish unsupported and in the cement desert that is most of modern life. Even the garden you are creating in Portugal had unforgiving soil. But look at you! nurturing yourself and building healthy soil so you can finally thrive. I am cheering you on from here. I am one of your people. I see you. I believe in you. Together we creatives will remake this planet so everyone can relax into themselves, enjoy life and thrive. ❤❤❤

    What a very moving episode that once again shows a true reality of life; the challenges, the sadness and then finding a way back to peace and comfort and eventually moments of joy. I have experienced anxiety too, and I found comfort and relief when outside in nature or working in my garden. Treat yourself kindly and know that you have many friends and supporters who wish only good things for you.

You both are right where you are supposed to be to be. I am cheering you both on that you will have an abundance of your hearts desires to share as you deem necessary.

    I hope we will continue to see a lot more of you. Don't give up. Your videos have been educational, inspiring, hopeful, and relaxing. I am sorry that you have been so unsupported by your family. But you have that wonderful husband of yours who is your family. I know that your viewers can't give you the same support as a family should. We are your cheerleaders and a different layer of support. Please continue to post your video updates regularly. Please tap into your strengths to do what you believe, what your passion is, and what you both are successful at. Thank you so much and God Bless. ❤❤🎉

    You two have made many accomplishments already and should be very proud of them. You're both extremely hard working, creative, and you create beauty all around you. Often we look for confirmation from others/family that we're on the right track but I've learned that it's best to look inwards for that. I never received guidance from my parents. They divorced when I was 10 and my father went missing. I've had to make my own way without much support. You'll have many external signs that will guide you on your path.

  • @peggygilbertsen9099

    I understand the loss one feels when your family loves with conditions. It’s not what we’d hoped for or what we think we see in movies and happy ending stories. That being said , resilience and self awareness help build a new life. “Don’t look back, you’re not going that way”, is something I read and resonates always.
    You’ll be fine , and thank you for sharing.

Your family does not have the capacity or compassion to celebrate your remarkable souks-but we, your faithful friends here do and I hope that helps ease your hearts some. Love from California.

    You and Pepe are living the life I hope to have one day by living minimally and providing my own food. I have only learned of and been watching your videos for six months. They move me so much with artful videography and bring peaceful, calming Zen to my day, so it saddened me to learn of familial discord in your life. I wish for you two much happiness and fulfillment as you both provide it to your viewers through beautiful storytelling that often is conveyed with barely a word being spoken. Please continue on your path and keep sharing with us. Much love.

However, I love myself and will no longer accept abuse of any kind. I am sending you loving thoughts. I know there are many subscribers who love you and believe in you. You are both helping to make this world a better and more loving place. Thank you.

Yo coseché hojas de camote el domingo, y hoy las cociné como se cocinan las espinacas. Tiene el sabor de la acelga. Me encantan tus videos!

    Thank you for this beautiful video, Eugenia. I relate to your story in many ways - with friends and family. I'm encouraged by your strength and wisdom and where you find inspiration. I wrote down the Gu Cheng poem. Most people give up on their dreams and they feel diminished by seeing someone fearlessly pursuing their dreams like you, rather than taking inspiration to pursue their own dreams. It's sad to lose connection with people you love but we are only given this one life to live. I recently saw a video by Oprah called "who she think she is" - advising us to surround ourselves with people who want the best for us... not people who want us to keep them comfortable. Looking forward to seeing more of your journey. :)

    Eugenia y Pepe, gracias por este vídeo inspirador y por recordarnos lo importante que es seguir avanzando. Tuve experiencias muy similares con mi familia cuando me mudé al extranjero. He leído en alguna parte que la gente quiere menospreciarte por celos y te ven haciendo algo que ellos nunca serían capaces de hacer. Tómatelo como una victoria cuando te pidan que recojas tus cosas. Vosotros construyendo vuestra propia casa e inspirando a la gente en youtube es algo que les incomoda mucho.
