Hey to everyone!!
We are two young adults, Despina 24 and Deivids 25 renovating an old farm house from 1817 in Latvia.
Everything in and out of our house has been done by ourselves with no hired help.
DIY is going to apply to nearly everything in our house. Our budget is tight and that has made us appreciate every “ugly” part of this house and turn it into something new and beautiful.
We give new life to things that others would throw away!
In this journey we are not alone! We are starting up our little Farmily:
7 Goats & 2 Bucks
3 Sheep
4 chickens & 3 Chicks
1 Rooster
and 3 Geese
Oh yeah and our cat Ivi & Dog Keita
Despite our daily problems we are two young people full of joy and happiness, ready to start a new crazy chapter in our life. It wouldn’t be fair to keep this fun just for us!
That’s why we want YOU to also be part of our Farmily!!
We love our very supportive community!!
Thank you so much for the support you are giving us. Every view, like, share, subscribe and financial support means a lot to us. Any support is extremely appreciated!

What an amazing transformation from loose stone walls to a nicely finished smooth
usable basement ! You two are awesome in doing this hard work as a team and never giving up. Once you finish both the bottom floor and the floor over the iron beam you will have a perfect cool place to store your vegetable and fruit harvests. Hard to believe this desirable space was once filled with soil,ruble and trash before you worked hard to redo it. I've been around for over 80 years and have rarely seen any people your age with so much knowledge and ambition. Bravo !👍👍👍🤩🤩🤩❤
Dungeon is totally transformed. The best place to keep potatoes, pickled vegetables, jam etc. Well done 💕
You are definitely preparing for a better winter in your home . Amazing all the projects you have completed. ❤
The walls 🧱 look so much better since you guys cemented them. It doesn't look ugly anymore. ❤❤😊😊
The walls look fantastic. You two work so well together.
You two did a great plaster job. You work well as a team.
What a transformation already!
I am amazed at what you two can do, it looks great!
Oh my dears, you are so busy. Thank you for the Video and music.Good evening.
Love the hand prints. I’ve watched a few vlogs on older properties and most lean towards lime render for breath ability even in damp areas to prevent mouldy patches. If you find your walls get damp patches after using cement render then you might consider removing it and using lime instead. Painful job but possibly worth doing for health reasons. But hope this works for you. Others often do the French drain options on the exterior sections which may be tricky too.
Like how you2 love your home,you getting every nook n cranny.🌞🐓
The sweetest thing was both of your handprints. Great job on the basement ❤
You should be very proud of the amount of work that was accomplished this summer
w😲w..
what an awesome job , l💚ve the ✋hand prints..
y'all ARE amazing ❗

The stone walls were so pretty but what you have done is so practical, another good job
Good morning you guys are good afternoon hope you guys are having a great day hope you guys having a wonderful day keep up the good work❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
What a Job!!
Great work 🙂
5:40 & 8:57 Someone is looking beautiful in their cute outfit 😍👍
Timelapse gold with perfect work and music ❤
Grandma referred to her room like this as her root cellar. It was where she stored her potatoes, turnips, carrots, sauerkraut and all her home canned fruits and veggies. Good luck and enjoy!
You are two of the hardest working CZcamsrs on CZcams. I enjoy your videos, never know what you will do next. Keep it up.
Your tenacity, your persistence. Such incredible dedication. It’s very joyful to watch you succeed. I wish you all the best keep on rocking.
Great job ❤
THank You
Nice idea with the prints😀. Basement looks very good. Great Progress 👍
Here comes shelving
You keep me amazed by your choice of music.
To help you to keep moisture out you can use waterglas/sodium silicate.
That is some tedious work you are doing. It really looks good! Who knew you could make that space look at as good as it does. Well done! ❤❤
Nice time lapse video. Nice job on the stone work and plastering. Look forward to the finishing job. Blessings.
The stones are so cool! Too bad you couldn’t find a way to waterproof the stones.
Bravo for grading your own sand
Looks great well done!
I thought Lime with sand would let the Walls breath. looks ok 🙂. Power pack looks good.
I thought the same, old stone building need sand and lime .Although it looks ok I wouldn't be surprised if it starts leaking in water. Hopefully not but time will tell
This is exactly what I'm trying to find out. I've a much bigger basement that has the same walls and leaking water and slowly allowing sandy soil to leak in as well. Have little money or resources so hoping to find a way to improve my very damp home. In a decade the water table went from being dry to lots of flooding around my property. So... It's impossible to trench out all around the outside. Likely cause collapse is my fear, even if I could afford that option
The basement looks so good now !!! You did an excellent job. This will be a very nice space to store all your jams , jellies, potatoes etc ! ❤🎉❤
Time lapse very smooth great job on plastering blessings to All
Ineeded you two when i had a historical home built in the 1720 s
It's for sure strengthening your house 🏠
Bravissimo!!!❤
Since it can't be sealed from the inside, a automatic pump is the only soulution
Good project to complete before winter.
Dig a deeper basement or raise ceiling
So glad you just said screw it and put that coating of concrete & sealant on the walls. It looks so nice & clean. Fresh new life for the basement.
Wow, you got a lot accomplished there! Good job! 👏
Great job
You should make a time capsule of your story..years from now your grown children may find it and be overwhelmed with Joy.
So beautiful!!!!!!
Wow! Looks great! You guys did a super job. Love from Wisconsin! 🥰❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
The basement is really looking good how y’all are doing it. I sure hope you don’t have any problems with it. It’s gonna be great to be able to store food down there. The solar bank will come in real handy. Especially if your electric goes out you can keep your fridge and important other things plugged into it. So it’s good to always keep it charged up. Plus they are great to take camping in case there’s no electricity wherever you go.
Great
I’m so very proud of you two! What a monumental job you’ve done with that basement. I sure hope it works. Love the hand prints 💕💕
SO MUCH HARD WORK!!! LOOKS FANTASTIC. GOD BLESS.👍👍🙏🙏
Such hard working couple..ut looks great!
Hand prints are perfect 🤗 keeping water out is a real concern….I live in Uk in flats built in 1971 on the ground floor and over the last 2 years we have noticed problems with the hallway floor 😳 yep rising damp/water we will find out more on the 20th when the inspector comes out ..fingers crossed it will be sorted soon.
Maybe you guys could sort it out faster 🤣.. take care xx
תודה❤❤❤
You two are work machines….amazing work ethic!
You guys r hard workers..
Amazing work. So much patience! But worth it in the end. Wonderful result. Well done. You make a great team!
It’s best if you tie the cement into the stones and remove any exposed crevices with a course sponge.
Nice job. White wash walls stops molds
Hi Peter, you don’t fancy popping over to the uk and doing some plastering for me do you 😂😂😂😂. Keep safe and give all the furry and feather ones a cuddle. ❤🇬🇧🙏
Your walls look good.
❤❤❤
Well done good job
Tur nu gan bija daudz darba, aiztaisīt visas spraugas un noklāt sienas! Pavisam cits skats!😀
Wow this will be awesome storage for your canned and others foods like potatoes! Root vegetables etc. storage shelves will be ideal to organize your belongings in plastic or glass containers .
I wonder if you could have just sprayed it over with Flex Seal? But your way is much better. You will have a very good basement.
I'm so glad you have started working on the basement again I have been waiting for you to start again on it can't wait to see the end results
You two did a great job loved it could not be better loved the way you to work together to get the job done thank you for sharing and your time was awesome never miss a video 👍
That's great thank you 🎉
Hi,
I am surprised you used cement to "point" and render the walls. Several CZcams channels featuring renovations in Portugal and Italy talk about stone walls needing to "breathe" and that lime mortar allows this while cement does not.
Maybe there might be different building practices between Latvia and Portugal, or that you are working below ground already. or adding the damp proof solution will help you solve this.
Good luck!
I think, because they’re below ground level already, that breathable lime is not what they need here. Essentially, they’re building a swimming pool, but with the water on the other side.
Looks great Rick from California
Nice job, guys.
I'm ❤ hoping that the two of you might one day consider creating some type of studio on the property. Because you really do seem to possess a very good artistic talent ❤ and you might be very good at creating decorative pieces 😉🧩 maybe even learning the art of working with Clay. It's only a suggestion but I do have a way of expressing yourself that has a great artistic flair that you might want to explore. Congratulations on any of the progress that you have made over the past year.
Uau…you always hardworking! It’ll be a very useful basement
Nice job. 👍👏👏
Thank you I enjoy watching your videos you sure do work great together
You guys are doing great job with the house. Great videos.
Nice and meticulous work. Have you ever watched Sean’s world? Also a CZcams channel he works a lot with older buildings. I watch him also.
Maybe a lot off work, but when the rains are coming the basement is hopefully waterproof ! The basement is already so much better !
This kind of wall shouldn't be sealed with waterproof material. They will have to do it again in 10 years.
If you are able keep going up and cover the brick layer too. It cant hurt. (?)
Nice job! Looks like the original builders ran out of vodka 😂
🙏🙏🙏🇨🇴🇨🇴🇨🇴COLOMBIA
Esta quedando fenomenal!!! Cuanto trabajo , pero va a merecer la pena . Vais a arreglar los ladrillos y el suelo ?
you should have water down the rock with a fine mist then apply the cement
😊😊👍👍
Great materials and techniques to dry in your root cellar. Looks very sturdy and more finished.😊
interesting to see how that works for you.. Like your stuff.. As a historical mason.. I would Only use hydralic lime, as it's breathable.. i wonder how this will work for your climate.. might be fine... I would only use lime and try and figure out the moitstur problems.. Maybe from exterior ...
If cement stops moisture, will that moisture eventually turn the stones into dust ? If so, how much time would it take.
Awesome job you both did so glad it done before winter so storing food will be great 👍
good job 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
a lot of work
Lubię Was oglądać i podziwiam za ciężką pracę. Myślę jednak, że piwnicy nie powinno się tynkować cementem, bo cement chłonie wodę i piwnica może być zagrzybiona. Powinno się zrobić domieszkę wapna do tej zaprawy. Pozdrawiam.
I don't think that's an old basement, it looks like an old cistern to me. There was one just like it in an old house I had. It's going to make a great root cellar, it looks fantastic.
👍
What are you going to do with the bricks that aren't straight along the top? Gonna put in more bricks or cement it too?
👏🌟👍🍀💐
I appreciate the hard work but they made this super hard on themselves. They should have just used a trowel
