- Living OFF GRID can be challenging, equally it can be both relaxing and rewarding living FULL TIME ON A HOMESTEAD! Today we get our swimming pool up & put up a lot of shade netting up in preparation for the heatwaves of the impending summertime in Central Portugal!
We are living OFF GRID with NO mains electricity, NO mains water or sewage. Can we build our dream life homesteading?

What can I say .....Paradise ❤
Thanks and we forget that sometimes, as it is indeed a paradise ❤️🪴🌱
💜Your dreams and vision are coming through.
Missy is class in a dress.
Thanks and isn't she just 😍
Love your garden. Hope nursery grows and thrive.
Thank you it's doing well but takes much time!
The pool is perfect !
Isn't it just, and a, game changer in the heat 💦💧
That's what she said! weeeeeeeeey 😄
Haha
I hope you have a great summer. That pool looked so inviting. Pity that fire season limits the amount of BBQs all the same. Good luck with the business.😊❤
Thanks and yes depressing no more bbq for 3 months 😕
But on the plus wonderful to have the pool in 💦💧🌞
@TheWildlandersOffGrid it's such a pity. Just at the time of year when weather-wise it would be perfect for eating outdoors in the evening. Cooking indoors heats up the kitchen too much. But then if you take into account the cost of starting a fire. Pity.
@@ChristineKelly1000 we're still cooking outside on the outdoor kitchen, just wood and coal isn't wise with the fire risks. We eat all meals outside so that's, lovely ☺️
Time as flyed bye but it's looking Fabulous place now , stay safe. Loving your vids.
Hasn't it indeedy we're unbelievably having our 5 years in a vanniversary
How brilliant to be getting pre-orders for your produce. Shade house & pool looking very inviting x
We were so pleased with the plant sales ✌️ and the shade is so lovely! 💦💧🌞
Looking awesome guys!!!!
Thanks! Been a busy and hot week! 🔥Awesome bbq too and shades working a treat
I foresee you guys needing a little box trailer and towbar very soon!❤
Haha, yes, I think so too! 😎
The landscape in Castelo Branco is simply stunning!
Isn't it just, the boulders and valleys are stunning.... The rural villages, and their cobbled streets too 🌞🔥😎
Missy, you are non-stop amazing!
Girl power
Thanks! We all pitch in and it's satisfying doing so many things we never used to do
Fab 👍
🙏🔥😎
All looks so good. Selling your produce etc must feel very satisfying. You've achieved so much . Hope you had a great BBQ. You're animals look so happy . ❤xx
Morning and yes, it was very satisfying especially the joy plants bring to many 🌿🌱🙏
Bbq was lovely, food was lovely with lovely people ❤️🍲
We've been following you both for a long time and enjoyed your travels in the'Yellow Submarine'. Now loving your new off grid life BUT, the sound on your last few videos has been poor and hard to hear what you say. I guess you don't know unless someone says.
Hope you don't mind us mentioning it. Keep up the good work.
Hi no don't mind at all and aware as it's a new camera. It's a trade off as setting up the proper cam with mics, etc is a pain so usually results in no video.... New cam is, great for b roll....
So sometimes, will be poorer sound to get a video out. As currently the length of time videos, take to make, are interfering with all the jobs etc....
Thanks for your longterm support as well and again great for the feedback 👌😊
Yes, you do need trailer!
Yes, we do!
Great video. You’ve done a grand job on the shade house and the garden looks well established now. Well done!
Thanks Gail 🙏🌻
I must agree in it's second slightly more, established year the garden is looking fabby 🥒🌱🌿🌞🌻
We have also had a LOT of rain!
I bet you'll be in that pool many many times over the summer! Hope it stays clean for you and doesn't turn green and mouldy! 🙂
Every day so far! It's chlorinated daily so be fine 💧💦🌞😎🙌
Since filming this, i bet you have had a few relaxing soaks in the pool after all the hard work. I wonder though, will you build a shade to keep the sun off yourselves or will you only use it later in the day when the sun is lower down?
Yes and yes 💦💧
The plan is to put a bigger pool in and then landscape put sand around it and put up a, shade structure much like whatcwe just built for the shadehouse
Nice to see you,that your working hard🎉❤
Haha, and always... Well often 🔥🤣
OMG where did you get those specs where did you get those specs
Amazon! 😎
I think I heard you mention that you had Tiger nut plants, have you had any success growing them in this climate and got a good harvest?
Hi we do have them and it's, our first year but so far they are growing like nuts 😂in partial shade. But I'd hazard a, guess the crop will be good. Then they will nerd mulching as, they are not entirely frost hardy
Hi not the best glasses,they hide your hansom face , lovely video take care
Aw thanks! I figured if I got huge red ones I'd not loose them as much..... I was, wrong 😎🤣
Ready for the roasty toasty season I see.. much needed pool for some cooldown.. maybe a shade cloth about it not a bad idea..
Nice to see also that you had a good sale with the plants,
Haha yep ready although roasty toasty is an understatement forecasted for 39c on weds now! 🌞🔥
And so pleased on the plant sales 🌿🌱🥒🌻
You didn't say how much you brought back from the market? I hope the answer was nothing!
We didn't buy any plants! 🌞✌️
I might have bought a shirt, but we're keeping plants separate financially
@@TheWildlandersOffGrid I meant..did you have more space in the car coming home than setting off for the day ?😆
Nice, isn't that good😂
The pool?
