Dan finds out that a homestead is only a place of work when the love of your life is not there! Great work on the top looks ready to be christened with a curry? Keep the faith and continue to look after each other.

Outdoor kitchen project turned out very well. Love the tiled worktop. Good to see Laura back , Dan needs looking after. Ho hi. Great channel guys. 👏 Sean & Mary belfast. 🍀

The worktop, sink and hob look beautiful. Dan did a fantastic job on the tiling.

Hi Laura and Dan, you lovely couple! I am very happy to see you! Laura I am glad you got to spend some time with your Mother. That is always very special. Dan, you are a blessed husband and the surprise for Laura and you missing her warmed my heart. The kitchen looks so great and the tiles came out perfect. I watched that segment over and over, pausing, so I could take it all in. The beauty all around you and the darkening sky is magical. It will be so cool when you all can sit at the table, chat, cook, watch the sunrise/sunset, and enjoy God's creation. TY for creating yet another gorgeous and inspiring video. It truly does my soul good to share it with you. God bless you & Love in Christ. ~John

Love the kitchen 😊 the place is looking spot on. Loving your journey 👊

You guys are glowing, not the sweat, looking happy and healthy.😘

Don’t forget to seal your grout! Makes cleaning and keeping it clean much easier.

clever buggers

Thumbs up to Dan, for continuing the counter top struggle. 😅 Lots of love from Vienna

Wow! That countertop, stove, and sink is beautiful! Feels good to be with you experiencing this. I mean, you are manifesting a functional aesthetic piece that your life will revolve around, and that little mosaic artwork that Laura did is forever whispering her name to those who know. For us, it was only a few minutes that Laura was gone and it was different but for Dan, it was four whole days! Having a part of you missing for four whole days...I guess life demands that sometimes we make sacrifices. I was hoping to hear an update on the snake, rat, and ceiling thing? Other than in the movies, I don't think I have seen a snake that big in my life! It brought the ceiling down, and there was screaming...ha, ha. Was that Laura who screamed?

Boom! Counter top done. Check. Looks great -that's the thing about graft, the reward tastes so sweet ☺️

Looks great, solar lights so Dan can work later 😂 x

Regarding your immigration process. An encouragement message. Born in Eastern Europe, escaped at 18, sold by neighbor country and sent back. Spent 10 months in political prisons, second time escaped and crossed all the way to Western Europe. Was shot at at one border, long ordeal, hunger, freeze, etc. One month later after Christmas father shot and killed trying to escape the home country.. Crossed the pond legally and lived in USA. My point is that while not all things are created equal NEVER EVER GIVE UP. You guys are young, decent, unpretentious, brave and hard working. Whatever happens it will be OK and you'll be fine! Keep going, and don't look back...

Yes, I have used a grinder to cut the tiles. Boy, the tile cutter was super. Everything is looking great. Super kitchen.

Glad your back! Look’s fabulous.. love the mosaics 😎

wow, things are coming together and the outdoor kitchen is looking really great, so glad you are back home Laura, Dan was missing you so much....bless him 🤣🥰

Hi, If you put some guttering over your outdoor kitchen and run rainwater into a tank your water problems will be solved in the kitchen. 🙂🇦🇺

You can build your house around the kitchen, love the way you both think

So glad that Laura is back with you. I love that you two work so well together. I am quite old, but I still wish I were across the pond to help you with some of the work. Keep up the progress!

The outdoor kitchen looks amazing you will have lots of happy times out there.❤️❤️❤️

Just noticed a couple of screws not countersunk , It is nice to have a countersunk bit to allow the screw to have that fixed first before you put in the screw, so that the head of the screw doesnt have to push away some of the wood to make a nice job out of it.being flush.

Great job guys, you two have done an amazing job on your land so far. I look forward to seeing each of your videos. Thank you for sharing it all with us. Cheers from Ontario

Nice job on the kitchen.

Good luck to your freedom I'm 62 and I'm constantly thinking about saying time to leave life and start mine just me and my dog

Your 1st meal will be such a happy meal regardless of what it is👏👏👏👏👏 well done guys all the best from 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿💪👌🤘😎

Just another added bit of information you will want the tile to hold up both the sink and the gas burner, rather than just butt up against the outer edes of them

Stunning is my word of choice. Lots of hard work on the patio and fire pit. Then, adding the cover made it homey. Now, with the kitchen done, it looks "STUNNING" love the color combinations!

Huge congratulations! Seeing you two puzzle things out is so joyful! Well done.

That's a real nice job. For a long lasting satisfaction of the tile countertop, you need to put 2 coats of heavy clear sealer on the tile, once it's cured. It will make a great end product. for the outdoor cozinha.

Love it. Wonderful. Thanx for sharing all of this. Inspiring for sure. Gina in Upstate New York USA moving to Portugal

Well done to you both. I am just fitting a kitchen in my Charente farmhouse, I know how hard and time consuming it is even though I am a handyman as a profession. The mosaic pattern looks great.❤👍

That outdoor kitchen is fire! Great job!!!

Excelente job. I like to recommend to put any partial wall in the back to protect the kitchen because is very exposed to rain etc . Wall can be acrilyc wood, Abe plastic curtain. Partial , not since the floor to the roof, no, partial. God bless you both.

Hey folks, let me give you a tip. You could've made the countertop out of concrete with some reinforcement bars and you'd never have to worry about humidity ever again. Just don't forget to set up a "wind blocker," or else the stove burners will go out with the slightest breeze. 🌬And finally, get some covers for the stove and the sink because the winters around here aren't a joke. Keep going strong and... barnnnnnnnnn! 😛

You've done a good job with that tiling Dan ...even with the gaffer away for a few days 😂😂, brilliant ✏️📐🔨

Nice to c u both lovely guys

Wow the counter top and everything looks so beautiful. Dan I could tell you really missed Laura being there but you made it through. I cant wait to see whats gonna happen with the barn. See you guys next week. :)

Vocês os dois estão de parabéns a bancada ficou giríssima ❤

I see that curvy timber is not just a British problem!

Dan, the countertop with hob and sink looks great!

Hi guys good to see yous 🖐️❤

Getting better and better everytime😂🎉

Did you use Flexible tile adhesive? Remember the board you’ve used absorbs moisture so will swell slightly in the winter and shrink in the summer. Looking good!👍

Everyday you are learning more congratulation , can't wait to see what's next.❤

your outdoor kitchen came out great

Im not usually a commenty type of person, but give credit where credit is due....Good job! 😎😎😎

I think the out side kitchen is coming on magnificently and the counter top is beautiful, lovely colours and I like the big tiles, well done Laura a good choice, like the mosaic tiles on the floor. You kitchen is going to be a lovely place to hang out, can not wait to see it in operation and the table and chairs etc etc. Have a lovely week end. Laura Dan missed you and welcome back.

Wow..Outdoor kitchen looks fantastic! Great job!!

A LITTLE BIT OF AN UPDATE SO FAR!! Great video, with what you’ve shown me it gives me ideas on making a homemade outdoor kitchen area in the UK. God Bless.

Ok, I really like Your outdoor kitchen. Very Nice !! Stay Safe and Enjoy life.

Laura, a grateful heart is a happy heart. Appreciate your lovely heart. Dan complimenting you, it's lovely, so much positive energy.

Hi Laura, Dan glad you two are ok, after not having a video last week started to get a bit worried, you two take care stay safe.👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧

That out side area is really looking good smashing job

Looks great, you will be happy cooking outside with lots of room!

Good job on the kitchen. All starting to come together. 😅 i like you explain what you are doing, showing the before and after. Still haven’t seen the sunset. 😢

A wee mobile Windbreak for the Windy days & nights would be good.

What a Beautiful Young Couple ..making there dreams Happen !

Nothing but progress going on at this homestead! Everything seems to be falling into place, and it is a beautiful sight. I say AWWWWSOME!

Your outdoor cooking area is looking great. Keep up the great work.

Make sure your underlay is solid for the tiles. If not, the tiles will flex and cracks can appear.

Hello guys! It looks awesome. Well done. Looking forward to other projects. Love and be safe!🤗😘🌼🇻🇪

Wow, your out side kitchen looks totally amazing, well done both of you on all your hard work, looking forward to your next video, take care ❤❤😊😊

DAN !!! Don't forget to drill your holes for your faucet before you tile😮

Wow... Great Success!! High five!! Very nice! Dan, thanks for not crying on camera because Laura was gone we all missed her but you both did a great job.

I am so impressed in how this came out.....Dan did create a nice surprise for his beloved...again looks beautiful!!

Fabulous job Dan and Laura, your outdoor kitchen is beautiful, can’t wait to see you cooking in it…..

Hi Laura and Dan the work top and sink and hob look great think Dan missed Laura when she was away I wonder what the next project is waiting for the next video stay safe friends

Kitchen is great, you have done a fantastic job

Love ur outdoor kitchen, look forward to watching u making delicious meals. Well done 👏 👏👏👏👏👏

Beautiful, Excellent,Congratulations, very hard work. Everything looks good!!!, I wish you all the best.

Smashing outdoor kitchen. Well done you two

Nice work. Your getting better & better and the whole unit looks really great. Looking forward to the next installment. Best wishes and stay safe J.

Maybe a nice idea to make a iron bar ( or wood ) between the two standposts, on the corners of the cooking island, hang metal hooks on them and hang your pans, and other cooking stuff. Just like in the older days. Just an idea. Makes it vintage and modern at the same time.

Very good job, well done. Looking forward to your barn renovation.

Excellent work. The kitchen was spectacular. 😲

LOOKING GOOD . GOOD LUCK BE SAFE

Outdoor kitchen looks amazing 🇬🇧😊

I missed a video last week. So glad to see one today. The kitchen looks so great! I can’t wait to see what you do with the barn😊

Wow, it's looking great, love the look and the mosaic adds a wonderful touch. Stunning guys.👍

Wow the countertop looks amazing. Well done. ❤❤❤

Love them tiles bud .... Great job

The kitchen looks great! Cant wait for you to be able to use it. 😍Hang in there 😉

Well done you two it’s starting to come together.

Looking great Dan and Laura.👍

When the wood starts to shrink all the tiles will fall of. You should have made a concrete slab to set all the tiles.

That kitchen's looking fantastic! 😎

I do hope you are both okay. We love watching how you are creating things that are not only functional but beautiful too. Take care of yourselves. And hello from Australia ... your 'Ozzie' accents crack me up!

Such a beautiful space that you have created. Happy Days 😁

Missed you both.

Your kitchen counter looks amazing well done ✅ great teamwork 💪👍

Stunning!!!!!!!

That Mosaic is beautiful!!!!!

Great kitchen!

Somehow I missed this one. Looks great! I'm trying to think of an idea how to build a cover for the countertop. I'm thinking if you have to clean and prepare the countertop every time you want to use it, that'd be kinda discouraging to ever use the kitchen. I was thinking you could put a cover on it and put it on a hinge. That way its easy to open and everything stays clean and ready to use.

I envy you guys. Nice homestead and good work!

Amazing, love it. Greeting from your fan from Slovenia. You two are such an inspiration, thank you! Wish you all the best!

Nice work!! 🧡

Outstanding job guys! Being outside you will need a little wind guard of some sort to keep the flames from blowing out. A couple of pieces of plywood screwed together will do the job, it doesn't have to be fancy. Again, GREAT job!

Thats looks fab great job 😊

Just a little tip when cutting the tiles, cut the face of the tiles not the back thats probably why your getting bag cuts. Transfer the marks from the back of the tile to the front using you tape measure and a streight edge. Looks good thought keep up the good work but hopefully be a bit easier for next time 👍
