  • Hi, we are Harriet and Mauro and in February 2021 we bought an abandoned smallholding in Castellón, Spain. In these videos we share our life as we restore and improve our little stone house, learn to grow and preserve our own food, and bring our 4 acres of farmland back to productivity.

    I’m still amazed with how far your little house has come along over the last couple of years or so. I love your “let’s get it done” attitude. Well done

    I'm a new subscriber and have been binge watching. Obviously l know nothing. Sorry for the questions. God bless you all and many prayers 🙏🏻 Nurse Judi in Scottsdale AZ and Eucharistic Minister 🙏🏻 Your son is beautiful. My grandson lst BTW was born 3 months early & just got out of the NICU. Hole in his heart. We're praying hard!

    It’s amazing what you’ve achieved especially when you consider you’ve had so many things to battle, a difficult pregnancy, a poorly premature baby and you and Mauro have both had several health issues! You’re absolutely amazing, both of you. X

    Great work! I find it very interesting the different materials people use around the world to make a home. You guys do everything in bricks, mortar, and plaster. I watch a couple in Portugal who use mostly concrete and stone and another couple in Panama who have to use steel everywhere because of rot problems.

  • @pattykelly6621
    @pattykelly6621 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +5

    Harriet, you and Mauro have done a massive amount of work. Plus you had a baby in the middle of it. Your kitchen is looking so good. And that pantry! What I would give for a massive walk in pantry like that. I truly can't wait to see your surprises and the finished kitchen. When this is all done, think of the spare time you will have (a little joke). Congratulations!

    Your kitchen looks fab! What a transformation!
    If that huge fridge freezer is the Samsung one, watch out. I had one and it stopped maintaining temperature after just 3 years. Accessing the drain hole for the freezer also requires you to remove the back panel inside and disconnect the fan!!! It was great while it worked though, no cold spots to freeze my salad.
    I'm looking forward to seeing what the wooden boards on the wall are for...
