Some updated photos of the garden progress, it's been a challenge but its finally starting to feel like our own tropical paradise! still a long way to go and lots of plans for the future! Also still needs time to mature and I´m doing my best to improve the terrible soil that we have here.

Looks awesome! The pools are gorgeous, but I'm curious about the design with all the "islands" in it. As a lap swimmer, gotta ask why, though the look is quite stunning with the beautiful tile. Your palms have really taken off! Congratulations on a massive effort and obvious success.

Thank you! That section of the pool is only 40cm deep as a kids play pool or adult relaxing pool and the islands are steps to cross from one side to the other and later will link a guest house which is not built yet and also a hanging seat area next to the fountain ☺️

I watched one of your recent videos, and things are really filling in nicely. Some of your palms and trees are getting to the point that you can really imagine what it's going to look like in another couple of years. once they reach more mature sizes. You've done a great job.
