I don't want to work a 9-5 job and hustle for a corporate job only for my efforts to be underlooked. Raising a family with rising expenses and political tensions in American suburbia is highly unrealistic for me and that's why I'm inspired to be doing what you guys are doing!

    You work for yourself and you take 9 to 5s to build up the capital to invest money or to be able to take loans. Unless you can start the next big start up tech company or something else, you should thank god for having jobs in your area! That's what will allow you to buy the piece of land that you want so that you can turn it into your dream property. I leave in one of the most remote areas in the country side of France, sure you don't get all the annoyance of cities and urban centers, but you won't get hired for your qualifications and payed for what you're worth to a company in a 2 hour circle by car. You have to choose at some point and I wouldn't change it for anything, but you can make out the most of where you are! Cities get you a lot of opportunities, the country side a clearer mind, places to recharge and less distractions. There will always be something to complain about wherever you go. But you have to start where you're at to get where you want to be. Imagine what you want, plan it and execute, you'll get there sooner or later. Doesn't matter when it happens, the key is to not stagnate and to keep moving towards a goal.

    When you clear the areas around the stream and ponds, make sure you leave plenty of shade trees so the water doesn't heat up too much on the hot days and negatively affect the biodiversity of the area (frogs, turtles, etc). Also, hot water has the potential to grow a toxic algae which can make people and animals severely ill.

    Great, but just a word of warning - those shrubs and trees you remove from the swamp/wetland, think of it all as interconnected. Completely stripping it will mean it may dry out or reduce water quality (and impact biodiversity on your land). We are rejuvanating a small swamp near us (that only filled in winter). Plants around the edges and beyond plus some timbers to encourage frog life - it is now filled more in summer.

    I love that! I didn’t know the Portuguese were so hospitable 🥰 It reminds me of how people are where I live. If you were a guest at my grandparents’ house, you would immediately be offered coffee, food, soda, beer, etc. They would basically offer you things until you eventually said yes to something 🤣🤣🤣 They made sure you were content. Then they would talk your head off. They weren’t rich, but they would give you the shirt off their back if you asked. My dad made a lot of money, but my grandma would still try to force me to take her few little dollars when I was little. I remember always having to tell her no, then she would make me take it, and I would wait until she wasn’t looking, then shove her money back into her purse lmao! No way was I taking her cash lol.

Plus most times rural people are not as friendly and welcoming as foreigners dream in their fantasies.

    By removing all the foliage around the stream, you just shortened it's life significantly. Without roots to slow the water down, it has no way to stay on your land, it'll just run dry.

    ​@@NakedAvanger hows that exclusive to the modern villa idea. I think your confusing villa with estate. Villas were small farming compounds. A villa will have local production and many housing units to support itself and its community. While not as established and incorporated in trade as a town, it was not uncommon for villas to sell overproduced items (wool, textiles, or crops) to nearby towns. permaculture and hugelkultur are just techniques and should absolutely be used in any and all urban garden or new agriculture set up. As for simi-natural buildings, again ya. not mutually exclusive. This project is using combinations of containers and rebuilding ruins while using locally sourced materials so I'd say it fits that better than most places. You don't have to call it a villa but it is very much like a modern take on that idea considering how they are planning to reconstruct the large ruin. With the exception that its likely where they (the owners) will live full time as opposed to just one of many.

I've never seen your channel before and I'm of the generation of your neighbours rather than you but it gives me great hope that there are plenty of folks who are blessed with courage and confidence in the face of a huge task. God bless you and your efforts and more power to your hard working elbows! Oh, and I loved the music.

    This is my first time discovering this channel and video, from the looks of it is seems as if they have created their own Utopia; or what seems as the pre-sequels of one. I have always dreamed of living in a utopia like this ever since I was a kid. My parents always taught I was using too much imagination and should just stick to reality. The reality that they wanted me to live in is go to school, get a job, get a wife, have kids and die old…I mean where is the fun in that? I told them I always wanted to buy land make something out of it, you have inspired me once again. I love this. This is a life.

    Yeah you'll need the roughly half a million dollars to undertake an operation like this. You'll need to make A LOT of money before something like this is viable. It's all day work, so you can't have a traditional job, so you can't get a loan to do it. So you'll need to be fairly wealthy, and extremely liquid. Your parents told you that it's a fantasy, because it is.

    Those trees being cut in the opening scenes look like acacia dealbata, a great plant to have growing as it has so many uses. It's great firewood, it coppices well (Not the greatest attribute if you're trying to get rid of it.), it's a legume so is a nitrogen fixer (Works great with the coppicing as the relationship with the bacteria breaks down and the stored nitrogen is released into the soil and made available to other plants.), great for some simple structures such as yurts (Can grow nice and straight. Also looks like you used it for garden edging.), and can provide an amazing amount of mulch to feed other plants.
