Year Two Transforming Abandoned Stone House

Welcome to my off-grid journey in Portugal! I made a recap video of all the projects of the last 12 months. They were full of challenges, hard work and great achievements. As a first time builder, I dove into woodworking, laying tiles, rendering, brick laying, gardening, a LOT of plumbing, electrics and more. I'm very proud to have succeeded in making this abandoned stone house into a cozy home with all the luxuries of a mode rn life in the middle of the woods! It wouldn't have been possible without the support of my friends, family, volunteers and contractors and I'm so very grateful for my community on YouTube for your never ending support and encouragement. A special thanks to my patrons on https://www.patreon.com/mayafeliz? who believed in me. Subscribe for the upcoming renovations on my off-grid river homestead ????
