In 2015, Julia Pryke from South Africa and her British husband Gareth Shone bought a £3,000 derelict two-room farmhouse via the internet. They had never visited eastern Europe before, but wanted to lead a low-impact life and be as self-sufficient as possible. Ben Fogle meets them at the property in Gadacs, a traditional village in the Somogy county of rural Hungary, helps install a window and assists then as they try to buy chickens in the local market
