Summer has finally arrived in Germany. We start exposing the wooden beams in the bedroom and open the doorway we found in the previous episode. This was hidden to us and must have been hidden for decades or even over a hundred years. We also clean our Plaza and make it a cozy area for summer relaxation.
We are Lex and Marianne. On this channel we are sharing our story about renovating a 230 year old neglected and abandoned half-timbered (fachwerk) farmhouse in Germany. Our goal is to turn it into a beautiful, comfortable, ecological, debt-free, sustainable and self-sufficient homestead. And we have no building experience. Great! What could go wrong?
