From a Portuguese who has lived in France for 10 years now, but born and raised in Amarante (not far from your home) it warms my heart to see your work to rebuild a home and a city that so much deserves it. From all the Amarantines a big Thank You

With the world going nuts .. Self initialled young people and the worlds media, going down the rabbit hole. You guys have made me happy. I am 71 years old lives whose home is New Zealand . As a family you give us hope . Blessing hard work give so much benefit to the whole community... WELL DONE... GREAT STORY SO FAR....

Makes me so happy to see Caruso getting dirty and wet and playing and helping. What a wonderful life for him and his brother! Great parents!

Accomplishing all of this with a toddler and a pregnant belly is no mean feat . You guys are amazing!

I wouldn't think that it was possible to fall in love with a family just by watching videos but today's post has brought happy tears to my eyes. I really envy your lifestyle. I think that the best part has been watching our little man growing. He is such a happy little boy. You are both leading by example and teaching the boys that you can achieve anything if you work hard enough. Lots of love from Pam.

Wow 9 months already it was your biggest "New Baby" that you inherited from Portugal. Thank-you for more of your "criadura" did not know all the details. Always a JOY every Sunday to see you all. Peel back the years love that expression I would add to it and eating the fruits of our labours the years to come. Just lovely, keep the good work and creating new memories and more friendship such as Super Mario😂😂😂. Cheers to you all. Thank-you again Tara, John, Crusoe (love to see him with his little diggers), Sawyer getting bigger each Sunday. Hugs and kisses to you all.🏡🇵🇹🥰🥰🥰🥰💖🌺🦋🙏🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗 Still amazed at all your hard work, John's craftsmanship, your culinary talent Tara, prune marmelade would be great also.

As a Portuguese living in the UK over the last 10 years it is so nice to see someone do the opposite journey and starting a life in my home country. To see the progress and what you guys have achieved in the last 9 months is astonishing and I am so incredibly happy for you guys. You are such a beautiful family!!! To also risk, buy/restore something that as been neglected for so many years makes it so much more genuine and rewarding than simply buy new and move in - Your dedication, skills, sweat & hard work is paying off immensely and I cannot wait to see future updates on your new projects. Thank you for sharing the experience with us :) A word of praise to the local community that received you so well and helped you guys is any way so far, we truly are hospitable people and always eager to help whoever is in need. Wishing you all the best of luck and happiness in your new gem! xD P.S. - Subbed & like

Wow! Amazing! I’m Portuguese. Parents were born in the Azores. It’s a magical country and I’m so impressed by your work on the farm. Wishing you much success and memories! Much love from the USA! Parabéns

My social media feeds have been flooded with travelers and fitness enthusiasts who have moved to Portugal. It's a country on our bucket list and finding this as our first introduction to your story and journey is incredible. Your kitchen and living room space renovation is my favorite montage. Congratulations on your find for just an interesting property. Great work between you as a couple and with your neighbors and friends. Very impressive and totally worth a follow! Thank you.

OMG there appears to be nothing John can't build. What an amazing transformation inside and out. You deserve an award for accomplishing all that in under a year. What to come going forward? Congrats you two. 👍

I'm filled with admiration for you two! In nine months' time, you've not only given birth to a beautiful baby boy, you've given new life to a farm that was crying out for love and attention! Thank you for all your hard work making this video ~ a labor of love. Congratulations on all you've accomplished to date. I'm so happy for you! Much, much love. 🌿🩷🌿
