The Biggest Transformation So Far! OLD STONE HOUSE GLOW UP 🤩

But after realising how wonky the angles are on the ancient granite stone walls, we are still pretty nervous to find out if the tiles will look good in the end! (…and if we can actually manage to lift all 3500lb of them on to the roof by ourselves! 😂)
LIKE THIS VIDEO if you enjoyed it & SUBSCRIBE to follow our journey as we document our life here in Central Portugal & the many DIY projects that we'll be tackling including renovating a tiny stone cottage, setting up systems to grow some of our own food & finally restoring the 100+ year old farm house.
Also say hi in the comments! We'd love to hear from you 😊

We're Ricky & Victoria 👋 We're slowly bringing an abandoned off grid Portuguese farm back to life & transforming it into a beautiful homestead for us & our two rescue dogs Teddy & Poppy.
We both agree that we’re not experts in anything that we do here, however we don’t let that stop us from giving it a try. We live our life by trying. We live our life by doing. We live our LIFE BY LIVING.

Hi guys, to say I’m impressed would be an absolute understatement….. your refusal to cut corners and get the task finished as fast as possible is a testament to how beautiful the tiny house is looking. 🔨⚒️🎉💥👍

Just need now the topping out ceremony once the angle tiles have been laid. Well done Ricky and Victoria, Poppy and Ted.

You two have THE BEST ATTITUDES! What an inspiration you are.

All the hard work has paid of looks great that roof will last for another 200 years

I'm so impressed by how you work and what your priorities are, and the absolute joy you have with each other and your dogs. A joy to watch!

It's amazing how much it changes the look of the cottage. Beautiful.👍

Well done, both. Hugely satisfying to see the roof up at last. Onwards and upwards ... I mean, onwards and onwards. I think you've done enough upwards. lol. All the best. 👍

Taking those tiles up was exhausting to watch. Well done both of you. OMG. Well done Ricky and Victoria. That roof is a labour of love and a work of art. Congratulations and cheers.❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

So happy for you guys. On a dreary, stormy day in Nova Scotia this video put a smile on my face.

OMG you guys!! The roof is (virtually) done👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽! It is just beautiful🥰. So much hard work that totally paid off. Btw, olive oil and beeswax melted together makes a very nice balm for hard working hands. Add some essential oils (after it’s off the heat) and it’s even nicer! Loved seeing your adorable, happy pups too! Thanks for another fab video, now… to the spa you two, with a nice glass of wine. You’ve earned it❤

Looking at the scenery from atop your roof, while watching you two install the beautiful tile was VERY enjoyable!! Everything is coming along so well. Great job!!

Fantastic work Ricky and Victoria. The roof is looking stunning already and just needs the finishing touches. Floppy Poppy was so adorable laying in Ricky's arms.
