How nice to see positive people with humor! It is a great pleasure to see you cheerful and cheerful! You are an amazing couple! In the next time - you are my drug :-)
Hi there. I grew up in Portugal, my family moved there when I and my brothers and sisters were around 9 and 10 years old and lived there for 27 years. I'm now back in the UK. I just wanted to say thankyou to you both for such genuine, educational and humourous videos! You both have great attitudes and work so hard. I'm so happy for you to have started this amazing fulfilling adventure together ❤ I look forward to watching your videos and wish you all the best for an even more exciting year to come! Sending you lots of loving vibes.🤗
Soup looked lovely and wholesome. What a laugh you must have had making the trail cam footage. The kind of vibe I get off you two is like every day is Christmas Day when you two are together on your homestead. Beautiful, happy memories being made. Take care, Poo
Loved the behind the scenes shots😂😂 I suspect that there will always be wild boar and deer somewhere nearby, sharing your environment. Nature at its best. Glad that you have not seen too many wild boar though as they can be quite destructive to gardens. Hoping Dan is back soon.
Thanks Christine. We agree with you. It’s lovely that we have a habitat for the animals so hopefully they’ll stick to their space and leave our vegetables and trees alone. We had such fun making this video. I think Dan could be away for a few more weeks.
Thank you so much. Not likely to have him home for a few more weeks. Work is a bit full on at the moment, so I need to get out on the land and growing.
What a sweet couple! I've just come across your videos... and I've been ejoying them a lot. Thanks for sharing your experiences. Greetings from Brazil. Take care!
Hey, I was the 800th person to like this video. I subscribed! Greetings from the sunny island of Puerto Rico. Can't wait to return on holiday to Portugal.
I just discovered your channel and I'm enjoying catching up on your videos. I have been wanting to visit Portugal for some time and possibly consider moving there.
Loved the video! Like all your videos! Hope Dan gets back soon, hope all ok! Keep smiling as you are a smashing couple. 😊😊😊❤Bet that soup was gooood! Still mild here I. The South West of the UK .
Thank you, Corinne. I miss Dan and his lovely cooking. Beautiful here this week 20 - 23C but cool in the night. Must get out to work now. Dan is likely to be away for a few weeks more. 😊
Sorry to hear you are having to be alone for a while , is he okay? I have two good ears and ten fingers to type with if you need a chat! Seriously I am here if you need a chat! I am the opposite I love being on my own , like my own company and find many jobs I can do… Love gardening ! Very envious of your weather , no frost , not that we get much here … but I have to bring in tender plants … Chin up , we are all here for you …
I'm a new subscriber and enjoy the channel. Still trying to catch up between working, kitten season and starting up a garden and running the cat rescue from far away Melbourne, Australia. Good luck, cheers Daniela
Diverti-me imenso convosco. Gosto, sempre, de ver os vossos vídeos. Como é bom, terem estes animais no vosso terreno. É verdade que os javalis fazem muitos estragos, mas se cercarem todo o terreno, mais nenhum poderá entrar, para além das aves e alguns coelhos e lebres.
So nice to see you both -- you seem like such nice people. In an earlier video, the little lady scared the hell out of me --- swinging the ax, I feared if she missed the chunk of wood, the blade would go right through her shin. Yes, if I didn't worry, I'd have no hobby at all. Aside from that it's always good fun. Watch out for the wild boar -- if it's too hungry, either one of you would be good eatin'. And BTW, sorry if this is too nosey, but it looks so rural, how much land do you have???? The acres seen to go on and on!!!! Writing in Manhattan, where I have to make do with Central Park as my backyard, I'm absolutely green with envy.
Love the behind-the-scenes activities!!!!!! for your sake I wish for Dan to come back real soon, as you must be lonely. It was nice to see the wildlife in the woods, but as a child I was so scared of the raposa (fox), but the last time I was in Portugal my sister told me about the wild boars, now they are at the top of my list. Here in Canada, we have big scary ones in our woods, bears, moose, and many types of deer etc. But I live in the city, and most of the very scary Wildlife is on 2 legs. That soup you made looked so Yummy Good, I shall try to copy and make some for us. Take care and stay safe from those wild boars, and tell Dan to back soon, we all miss him, as you 2 make a very nice Twosome.
Great work setting up the TrailCam,its always interesting to see whats lurking. I started using TrailCams in my wood 2 years ago,and have caught nice deer,badgers,birds,stoats and all sorts of antics as they passby,which i post on my channel also. I used to take it up and down,but now i keep it going all the time in different locations,and just switch the sd card. Its always so much fun to check it on the computer,often with some nice surprises. The first clip you showed was a larger bird,which i was wondering if it was a Jay? I am quite passionate about the birds here in the Uk,and am interested to see what species you have there,in Portugal. Hope you can keep the TrailCam going some more. I use the Wimius H8 which has served me well. Best wishes from Devon
Camera is rolling and catching new animals but not always great images. Badger, fox, mongoose, rabbit and a woodpecker. Location changes every so often. It might be a jay you saw. We have a great variety of birds here. Raptors too. 😊👍
@@NearbyVeggies Super,thats great to hear. Its just really nice to know whats around,and if some interesting captures come along thats a bonus. As i mentioned,if you wanted nice clear images(apart from lenses fogging up sometimes of course),i would recommend the Wimius H8 which is less than 100 pounds,and a pleasure to use. 🙂🙏🐦
Hello... Been enjoying your videos even though they have brought me a stir of emotions. I was born on the Azores and came to Canada at the age of 9. I sincerely miss my motherland. I would move back in a heartbeat if my family would consider going along with me. We are all attached at the hip. Just the way I like it. haha Which part of Portugal are you living, if you don't mind my asking. xx
Where do you cook and sleep, the buildings on the property seemed to be in really bad shape? Please show us the renovations if any! I enjoy your channel and find many useful preserving techniques!
Itys amazing you are in the same district as My Family Viseu,,,,,,,Campia ,Viseu Sao Joao do Campo,Camp de besteiros,Silgueiros de bodiosa on and on and on, we are in the same district ,
I just subscribed to your Chanel. I would love to hear how did you find your property how works buying it in Portugal. I think would be helpful for many of us who planing to move somewhere. For me is debating between Italy and Portugal..
I love the light hearted take on life. But on a more serious not. Both deer and boar can ruin a garden in one night. I hope you are taking precautions to protect your garden and young trees.
So far so good. We keep habitat for them and some for us. The asparagus are enclosed in a fenced area. I send Dan out to pee around the place. Marking our territory so to speak but don’t worry, there’ll be no footage. 😊
You two are great, and fun!! We are looking into maybe moving to this area, Coimbra from the UK. May I ask, what is the temperature like in summer, is it crazy hot? Subscribed and grateful for any insight you give.
Temperature was 43 in the shade last year. Crazy hot. A good bit cooler closer to the coast on the west side of Coimbra. Oh, and thank you for the subscribe. Keep watching 😊
@Nearby Veggies my wife and I are binge watching your older videos!! I think you said you are about 30 minutes by car from the coast? And wow, still 43!! Was that for a prolonged period? Also going forwards can we message you via instagram if we have any questions? Ty for replying 🙂 think we will start looking west of Coimbra to try and get a sea breeze!
You will most likely need to apply for a visa. I can't say for sure as I don't know your nationality. This is a specialist area of expertise which I don't have. Good luck.
The best fun … we really laughed at the end 👍
We had great fun making this video
You both have a delightful attitude…rain or shine…dificulties with the tear down …and then rebuilding of your solid home soon.
Thank you 😊
How nice to see positive people with humor! It is a great pleasure to see you cheerful and cheerful! You are an amazing couple! In the next time - you are my drug :-)
Thank you. Great to know you’ve enjoyed watching 😊👍
Your videos are a lot of fun. Looking forward to the next.
Glad you like them! Thank you so much 😊
You two are silly goofballs! Good fun.
Just a little bit. Thank you for watching. 😊
@@NearbyVeggies And that's such a good thing!
The best 😊
Looking forward to more shots of the Javali. Particularly the one that moved with the blond hair!
Wonderful surprise to see Deer!
Tim and Fatima❤
More to come! Thank you so much for lending us the camera. Hope to get the settings right and capture some more footage.
This action was realy funy. I loved it. Have a nice day and waiting more from you.♥️
Thank you so much 😀
What fun! The soup and bread looked so good for a cold rainy evening dinner.
It was so good.

Thanks, JJ. Welcome along. 😊
How wonderful to capture those lovely creatures...including the deer and the boar 😉
Glad you enjoyed it, Heidi.
You two are marvelous! The deer are beautiful!
Thank you so much.

Mad as hatters 🤣🤣🤣 so pleased that there are other people on my planet 🙃 great video ❤️❤️❤️🇬🇧
Thank you so much 😊
Wow!!!! I'm from Portugal but your place looks so different than the south! Looks like an old fairytale forest! Here it's much drier and arid
You're right, the landscape here is much greener and lush than in the south. It's truly magical to see.
@@NearbyVeggies and that is near Castelo Branco? I'd bet it's even further north
East of Coimbra city. Just a bit further north.
Brilliant! So glad we came across your channel, you really make us giggle and we love the farm you are restoring 😍 keep us the great work! Jane & Mark
Thank you! Will do!
You both a bit different - so love your take on things. Keep up the great videos ...
Thanks so much! You're comment is funny. We'll keep on going.
Those ears in the camera were so cute.
😌 Ahh

Do you know what species they are?

Oh yes, those two legged animals are the worst 🤣 love your humour.
your content is very enjoyable and inspiring. where is dan? i guess i would have to watch more of your videos. you seem to be having a lot of fun.
