My partner and I love to watch your videos! Very inspiring!

I have no doubts your will eventually reach your objectives. You already have done an amazing amount of hard work. It may sound a bit cliché or jaded to say this. But the fact is that you have . Looking back at this condensed version of your hard work... it is amazing. And you both always seem to present a happy disposition. Your individual sense of humour complements each other. Your slightly dry remarks and your wife's genuine short bursts of laughter making light of a serious situation... and both of u plodding determinedly on. You have my admiration for your determination and hard work. Have no doubts you will continue to flourish in your adopted country and life style. Thanks for making a window into your life. It is educative and a lot more interesting and wholesome to watch than modern tv. I look forward to your next video . I vicariously partake of your satisfaction with your life there.

Great video of your year. Love the expressions on the wine, both bad and the surprise of something good. Look forward to 2023 videos.

Your wife deserves a medal she is doing most of the heavy work I salute her

You know what I like about all of these projects, is how slim & healthy the two of you are looking❤❤❤

That was absolutely outstanding! So pleased the French drain worked too. Here's to a fabulous 2023. Much love and good fortune to you both. 🌞

Fantastic work 😊🎉

Okay, I'll say it ... that was unbelievably freaking fabulously, outlandishly brilliant and wonderful.

You have no idea how much I appreciate your attention to detail and your aim and fastidiousness to get things right (and all the understandable gruntings that go along with it ha) the first time or rectify things as soon as you learn how to do things better. I'm glad you have the "push" to do most of the work yourselves because it's just awful to contract work to someone else who mostly operate on minimally acceptable standards as opposed to highest. Sharing you vision, pain and anticipation of the finished product!

Attention to detail and wanting to get it done right are both a blessing and a curse 😂 But 100% doing it yourself is more likely to result in a better job than a contractor ... even if you do have to undo/redo many times!

I've watched every one of your videos, and seeing this summary reminds me of a few important points. You did a lot of research and planning. You had the resources to purchase the equipment and materials you needed. You did a hellava lot of hard manual labor. You have realistic goals, and though there will always be improvement projects, you can make this your "forever home". Your video diary will be very useful for others who aspire to do the same.

That French drain around the house was a MASSIVE LOAD OF WORK! Very, very well done you guys! I was quoted $10,000 to put a French drain around my old house, and to install new vapor barrier in the crawl space.

Wow, that’s a crazy amount! But good to put into perspective what we’ve saved (and can instead be spent on wine 😂😂)

Even though I've watched every episode in 2022, it was still amazing to watch all your hard work rolled into one compilation. You've achieved so much.

I’m in awe of all the VERY hard work you’ve done.

You guys are awesome! what a great example of what people can do when they put their back into it. And for a couple of IT people, kudos for trying all that construction work by yourselves. Congratulations! I'm a bit far away (in Sintra), but I do enjoy this kind of endeavors, and If you need a pair of hands for a bigger weekend project, I would be glad to help

What a man! Bravo.

You should be proud of what you have achieved in only a year, Hatts off mate keep doing what you're doing & growing and I enjoy watching from Down Under.

I commend all of your hard work, looks wonderful.

Finally found you after being stranded on your previous channel! Amazing job as always!

So inspiring for a person like me , I lived in a village as a kid , enjoying traditional farming… lived my chunk of my life in Bombay … crazy city life ( never enjoyed the concrete jungle)… now moved for good to a big city like ATL but this city is different even though I live in middle of the city but it’s like I am still inside a village … finally planning to get into serious planting vegetables around my half acre property … thanks for the inspiration 🙏

What is the name of your new village/city, it sounds amazing and I wish you a really wonderful abundant life there. Namaste 🙏💜🙏

Amazing. I'd also love to know how you both manage to stay friends through thick and thin, and when you're together 24 hours a day. I imagine that with so many chances for frustration or disagreement, that each is also an opportunity for strengthening your relationship at the same time? Hats off to you both, can't wait to see the next 12 months of progress and when the day comes that it all starts pay off when you move in.

Wow!! What amazing work in just one year you two. I look forward to watching your 2023 achievements 😉 Happy New Year 🎉

Well done! Hope 2023 treats you well!

you are my favorite type of a movie genre: epic. intellectual. thriller. such a treat.

Oh but your willpower seems inexhaustible. I put off watching this for hours as I'd expected a visit and wished to have an uninterrupted viewing experience. Also, I mostly feel immensely less adequate watching you two working miracles with everything you touch. You are so inspirational. I'm 57 and want to be like you when I grow up. Fantastic work.

Eu quero saber onde essa mulher consegue tanta força, é muito trabalho, mas vale a pena. Parabéns ao casal 👏👏👏

I know right, she's amazing. It's rare to see the women work as hard as she does in these types of vids. The women usually plant or pick veggies or stand there holding things for their hubbies while he does all the work. Not her though, she works as hard, if not harder than her husband.

Super video. Your truly both awesome and real grafters. 72 year old carpenter joiner here. I've done every conceivable types of construction work as a multi skill tradesmen. Well done both. One thing is watching videos of other people carrying out work. The 2nd thing is actually doing it yourself. Great work in every respect both of you.

Que trabalho magnifico! I have no doubts your will eventually reach your objectives with the house. A vossa força de vontade é enorme!

I thought I work hard, but this is a hard working lady. I admire you strength, you motivate me to do more. A lovely couple indeed ❣️.

I accidentally stumbled on your channel and spent the last four hours watching both of you achieve a miracle while facing several obstacles. Your background was in IT, the house was old and falling apart, and the land needed an enormous amount of work, in addition to living in a tent, cooking outside in the rain, and having no lavatory. I applaud your determination to work together and complete your goal. I look forward to watching your next video.

Amazing year, looking forward to see what you do in 2023 x

I am so proud to see you guys working so hard to have your house and grow land. Love yo have a place like it in Portugal. I live in USA and decided to retiree in Braga never been in there. Your experience is amazing. Congratulations for everything your did together. God bless you and your husband. ❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊

Wonderful summary of some back breaking satisfying progress (from my couch)

Hi 🤘🏼 seeing it fly by like this 2 things stand out. First, you worked incredibly hard and second, not one grain of sand was out of place 😂 WoW…can’t wait for the final reveal although I also hope it will be a 10 year plan 😉 keep the videos coming 🎉

I love when she said “bye” thank you guys

Gosto muito de tudo o que fazem na vossa propriedade Só vos encontrei agora. Não vou parar de seguir-vos. Bem vindos a Portugal. Espero que sejam muito felizes aqui connosco. ❤.

*Kia ora (hello) Kylie & Guy, you both have done so much in such a short time... now take some time off for yourself over the holiday break to regain your energy levels again.*

Amazing re-cap of the past year. Here's to 2023 Kylie & Guy.

The amount of sheer bull labour that you two do is phenomenal

You guys should be very proud of yourself, so much done in a year.

The algorithm introduced us today. I’m just sorry that 70.7k people found you first. Hello from Vancouver Island Canada 🇨🇦

I have just finished watching you total video. You two are amazing.Your work ethic just makes my old body hurt.!!!!!!!!!!!!Y

Building that Chickencoop is a fine testament to your building skills!

What a fantastic video diary ...full of admiration... you're the best

Congratulations guys. Absolutely impressive. Keeping fingers crossed for a flushing toilet in 2023 🙂

Wow! The heroes of your own story. Congratulations on your achievements.

epic year! you guys must be proud!

I hope you folks had a well deserved rest over the Holidays as you have a busy 23 ahead.

Какие вы молодцы, сильные смелые. Какой же это труд всё делать своими. И какая вы пара интересная, трудолюбивая. Просто получила море удовольствия смотреть вас

This is the first video I've seen and OH MAN. ... I don't know how old you are but that is a serious amount of back braking, bone crushing physical labour you guys did. VERY impressive.

Perfect example of " If you want it done right Do it yourself" !!! What a team. Just can't figure out which one of you does the most work . 🤣🤣🤣

Love your channel and can't wait to see what comes next💜🧡❤

What a great year that was for your make.do.grow. I loved the dramatic music during the digging timestamp parts. You've both done really well in everything you've accomplished so far. I'm loving joining you on your journey thank you. All the best for 2023 xx

As a Portuguese that traded our sunny country for the quick pace of London ... I just have to say: I cant wait until I can save some money and do EXACTLY what you decided to do with your lives. Starlink and all 😁

You 2 are a powerhouse. This new year is going to be another strong year.

Great job! You two are very inspiring! Many will not find out the amazing reward of doing projects and putting in hard work together as couple as you both know. You learn so much and it deepens your relationship.

It’s looking and coming along absolutely amazing, guys! Congrats 🎉!

Wow guys!! I completely love your intention for your new life project going forward! I’m inspired by your courageousness and determination, knowing especially how relentless and taxing renovation and garden work can be (a bit like a war of attrition at times I’ve discovered!) Thumbs up for sharing your ups, downs and in-betweens in such an honest but intriguing and entertaining way! Sending you truck loads of encouragement from Australia and looking forward to catching up and checking in with your progress in 2023! Love the funny booze bits, so it’s cheers to you both!! Xxx

Your best video so far! Well done!

WOW when it is put into this timeline of year end I can see it was as incredible all lumped together as it was watching each video you put out.. Absolutely an incredible year for you two.. Well done and what an outstanding collage timeline. Can't wait to see what 2023 has in store for you two. YOU BOTH should be so proud.

I have learned so much watching your channel and I am so impressed with your consistent efforts. Poco a poco. You are going to have such an amazing property when you are done. How gratifying to be able to document this journey! And the story telling is smooth and feels so seamless (when I know from my own efforts that it is not when you are putting it together). VERY well done. Saludos y bienvenido desde Asturias.

Thank you for sharing your progress .... Great job... Built with Love...

It's amazing following your progress.. even better watching someone else flogging away restoring a house. I am full of admiration for all your hard work and particularly your commitment to restoring the house as it should be with natural materials. Congratulations and a Happy New Year x

Hello there! I've been following your journey for quite some time now and I must admit that the way you create and edit the videos has improved greatly. I personally find Guy's voice very soothing and calming, I really like how he narrates throughout the video. Also, I want to point out how genuine and lovely it is every time Kylie laughs on the video, that laughter always gets me. You both seem to be very down-to-earth and natural people and it's something that makes me come back to watch your videos every time you upload a new one. Can't wait to see how far you progress this year, and how you overcome all the challenges that appear while rebuilding that beautiful house and land. (Sorry if there are grammar mistakes, non-native speaker here.)

I enjoyed this Timelapse very much. It’s very impressive how much the two of you accomplished and the video is really great. Enjoy the journey and thank you very much for taking us along!😊

Awesome video - definitely beats Saturday morning paper. You are master storytellers and your ambitious DYI projects somehow make us want to make/do/grow more ourselves. I followed you in your previous channel and glad I found your new one. Looking forward to your next adventures!

With all the caring and sweat equity I do hope this is your forever home. Loved the video.

The Love , Sweat , and Tears You Two Have Put into this Ultimate Project is Beyond Belief and Your Talents and "Know How" are Purely Honorably and Stand Alone !

Love, love, love watching your videos and your very clear and precise explanations and descriptions. You two are amazing.

Great summary of your year. The house is looking amazing, and with the digging behind you, I don't think you're really looking at 10 years to complete it. Maybe another 2. You can really see how quickly it goes from rough to livable once you got to plastering the walls.

You guys are amazing. I've never seen a woman work so hard in all my life!

5 mins in and my nearly 3 yr old grandson came and sat on my lap for the remander, thank you for the video, top progress well done keep it up :)

I am so happy to see the progress and the aerial view of your property. I guess it would have been nice to have a digging machine or digger during all this hard work. I also love your name. Make do grow awesome. Keep up the good work. Don

The growing is so fantastic.

Congratulations 👏, it wasn't easy to reach this result, you are warriors💪💪. I wish you all the best. May 2023 be of great achievements 🙏🥰💚🌺 Hugs from Brazil 🇧🇷.

Wonderful, thank you. Graft, trial & error, commonsense, give-it-a-go, learning, understanding (a bit more), stupidity, and laughter. I went back in time, ... along way back. Swear I also felt wind, rain, sunshine, heat, cold and smells. Amazing what you can put on video these days, ... I never knew... Magnificent. Hugely inspirational. Compelling. Thoroughly cheered me up. Thank you and best wishes.

I had not forgotten, but maybe blanked out, just how much digging you had to do! I thought, at the time, you'd be easier raising the house! A fantastic amount achieved and thank you for bringing us along for your journey. Cheers

OMG. You guys are so amazing I admire your strength mentally and obviously physically! Great job and wishing you continued success! You should be very proud!

You both are doing great! I have been working on renovating and expanding my own property for 5 years now. While suffering multiple depressions. But thank fully with the help of my dad, i keep making progress and finish projects time to time. These things take time, but are so satisfying! I love your vids and the work you are doing, keep it up!!!

Muitos parabéns! Fizeram muitos progressos este ano. Cá estarei para assistir aos novos desenvolvimentos de 2023.

As with anything, there are good quality plumbing fixtures and those that are not so good. With all the work you have put into your floor, it would definitely make sense to install something that you trust to do the job and that will last for years. This is where the old adage "You get what you pay for" comes in. Good luck with your project.

I have a pretty small garden, that I have grown food on. The best advice I was given by an elderly gent was, always use the companion growing method as it reduces the amount of work you have to do. e.g. Grow corn with green beans or peas, as the corn provides upright growth space for the green beans/peas to grow up and they provide nitrogen for the corn at it's roots. Carrots should be grown with strong smelling plants as the scent of, for example garlic or marigolds, covers up the smell of the carrots, so the carrot fly are less likely to find the carrots to lay its eggs on. It's worked well for me.

Sitting here, with my wine, watching your year in review for the second time, I was again thoroughly impressed with your work ethic . Watching your changes is fascinating to me. Thank for sharing.❤️🍷🇨🇦

Amazing how calm you are when problems come up!

Looking forward to this, thank you for all the vlogs!

None of your construction work looked easy going, weather it is pounding balls, or lime your walls, or dig trenches. I do admire your work ethic and grit in pushing trough while filming it all! It always sounds a little fake, but gonna say it anyway… You guys are awesome! Thanks for another year of fun filled projects, I wish you both a merry new year!

Thoroughly enjoyed the journey and the humor. Thanks. 10:18pm , February 7, 2023

That's amazing I just felt exhausted when you two were working since I also do Farming and such handly works. It was an encouragement to move on

Dedicated Subscriber, even from the prior channel. Y'all are doing great and making progress. Can't wait to see some more renovations. Happy New Year from the U.S. Kylie and Guy!

👏👏👏 wow! You both work so hard and look at the results ! Keep going and all the very best for 2023… can’t wait to see what this year holds for you.

Wishing you all the best with your plans for 2023.

Happy 2023!

I can only say how much admiration I have for your accomplishments, over the last year , you had me quite worried for a time when you disappeared, but my god how much you made up for it, I look forward to the coming year guys.

Looking forward to 2023 with you

Amazing, what you have accomplished. All the best for 2023.
