ESCAPE TO PORTUGAL: Our Life Building a Self Sustainable Homestead
Hard work every day on the homestead, caring for animals is a daily task that cannot be ignored! Making the most of the 'cooler' day Bee cleans out the chicken and goat enclosures, ensuring they have enough water to get them through the hottest part of the day. Using natural cleaners like vinegar is a great way to reduce the use of harsh chemicals and also ensure the health of the animals is kept high. It's also time to start on the vegetable garden which has been on our to-do list for many months. We've got tonnes of soil to move from the flash-flood wash off last year which we can use in the raised beds along with twigs, branches, leaves and other organic matter as we use the hugelkultur method again.

Theo and Bee gave up their busy city lifestyles in 2014 to explore alternative living, and have lived in vans and boats since then without looking back! Along with their cat Ginjey Bear they have been driving around the world in their self converted Sprinter van. However, when the global pandemic hit they began converting their abandoned stone barn in Central Portugal to turn into a wonderful tiny stone cottage. Along the way, they have rescued a playful cat called Furrnando and have a wonderful flock of Chickens!
