The old Portuguese houses, for people who took care of animals (cows, sheep, goats) usually have a small door, the animals slept downstairs and the people on top the main reason was the heat for the winter.
-
I am sure you know, but you must use lime mortar to re-point the stones, never cement. This allows the walls to 'breathe' otherwise you will have issues with dampness
-
Vinegar and baking soda combined are not an effective solution for cleaning metal. This produces water, sodium acetate and carbon dioxide. It would be more effective to remove rust using electrolysis or using vinegar alone
-
Re-planting is stressful for all plants before replanting soak the roots for a good hour or more in water then use the water to water the hole before re-planting. That will give them the best chance of survival especially when it is as hot and dry as it gets to be in Portugal.
-
At 19:59 this is a holder for salt, pepper, vinegar and oil, probably intended as a dinnertime salad dressing device.
-
My family use to break old tiles into small pieces and lay them on dirt roads to make them more durable and less muddy
-
I live in a climate similar to that which is where we get very wet Winters and very hot dry summers. The best thing a structure can have is an extended roof. It keeps you cool in summer and it keeps the structure cool, and it keeps the water off in the winter . The little ruin is a perfect for an extended roof, in whatever Direction makes the most sense for an outdoor living space or storage

The mario music when the guy came out. Made me go back and watch a few times. The #editingteam is doing a nice job. Bravo to the whole #Projectkamp.

I love how you all protect the native plants, creatures and everything ye can. It's brilliant

Hi gang ! Love your videos !! Here is a trick I have used for decades: RUST, Let the metal items soak in cheap white vinegar for at least 2 days...brush and soak/repeat again until the rust is gone. Rince extremely well and let dry. Protect with oil (olive is ok) or a coating (paint, clear, etc.). Then enjoy the items for years to come. 🙂 Keep the vinegar. You can reuse it many times. Cheers from Quebec.

Really appreciate you guys keeping it real and not putting "yoU wOnT belIevE wHat wE foUnD UndEr tHis mystEriOus rUiN" thumbnail and title on these videos 👍

The unbroken glass bottle WITH the TOP is beautiful … will you clean and restore that too? Would love to see it. Thanks for the video, you guys ROCK!! ❤
-
That item at min 20:00 might be what is called a "Galheteiro" in Portugal. The big round holes hold an olive oil and a vinegar bottle or flask, and the two small ones are for salt and pepper. There should be a vertical handle in the middle
-
looks like that little ruin is perfect for, another outdoor shower and toilet since it is near the pig trailer.
-
Hahaha the Mario sound was hilarious 😂
-
why i am so excited to see your video and wait for the next project kamp update, feels like its just our land and we all know it very well just like our child
-
Definitely need to reinstate the floor on that ruin, it would give you additional cold storage underneath for veg etc or just tent equipment in off season. The temperature will be quite stable. You could always go big and add another floor to the ruin with timber to make it super duper 😅
-
Freeing the tree from its bling was a beautiful, touching moment. Thank you so much for your stewardship!

Tip: cut some branches short on fruit trees from ruin. It will prevent water loss and ease reduced root system
