    Looks like it's coming along nicely! We actually ended up looking at a house in your village a couple of weeks ago but the ceilings were so low we couldn't stand up in it 😂 it's a shame because it's so peaceful there! We've looked at a house with terrible damp, one with woodworm and one sold before we could put an offer in so it's going well 😂 we have decided on Bulgaria over Portugal though 😀 and definitely the Veliko Tarnovo area although we looked at one near Popovo do you know much about that area? x

      Oh my goodness you should have popped in for a cuppa!!! Yes there are compromises with properties here, we chose the low ceilings as wanted the views, hence why we need our extension 🤣 have to say we don't know Popovo area that well but do what feels right for you.. you'll know when the right one comes along!! Good luck and keep us updated 🙂

I’m sure we’ll find the right one for us 😊 I’m hoping it’s sooner rather than later now the nights are getting colder though 😂 I don’t think I fancy winter in a van here! Yes I’ll have to message you guys on insta or something, it would be lovely to keep in touch, we were worried about making friends closer to our age as most seem to be retired here xx

    300 BGN for 1 week worth groceries ? Sorry as a Bulgarian I was a bit shoked. 300 - 400 is usually my month worth groceries in Sofia.

    Good to see another video and you are doing well. The progress on the house is coming on, just out of interest Lee what is the price for timber especially the oak.

    • @ourderelictdream
      @ourderelictdream  3 роки тому

      Thanks Paul! Currently oak is 1350 bgn a cubic metre. Softwood is 650 bgn a cubic metre. Plywood is non-existent and OSB has tripled in price recently, at 48 bgn 9mm OSB-3

    • @leesparkes1524
      @leesparkes1524 3 роки тому

      Hi Paul,
      I just wanted to add that the above prices are for raw materials.....planed and moulded timber costs a little more- although the quality I've found locally is questionable and only available in softwoods- best to buy raw stock and run it through the machines yourself in my opinion, especially if you're interested in hardwood.
      Cheers for the comment, I'll be making a video in the future about the costs of materials
