Our mediterranean kitchen build hit a big setback when we had to remove our newly poured concrete floor. But we don't let hiccups set us back for too long on this old house renovation. In this video we're back for Round #2 as we re-do the kitchen floor, again, and push ahead on our DIY kitchen build.
This self-build kitchen renovation is testing our skills, and determination; as any old house renovation will do. Can we push through to build our dream mediterranean kitchen?

We also, FINALLY, get some rain in the mountains in Spain! Hooray! So we head up to the land to try and collect as much as we can, to replenish our water stocks that have almost completely run dry.
Thank you for following our journey.
¡Un gran abrazo desde Smithsdale Farm!

[ABOUT US]
We're Danny and Kate. In 2015 we moved from the UK to Barcelona, and after 8 years enjoying the busy city and sunny beaches we moved to the mountains to start a new adventure. We'll be renovating a town house, building an off grid cabin, restoring an old stone house and farming 12.5 acres of land with regenerative agriculture and permaculture practices in Catalunya, Spain.
