We Built a Spanish Adobe Hut in 10 Days

Utilizing simple hand tools, me and Robert @supervivencial dug a hole in the Earth and converted the raw dirt into adobe bricks to build a semi-sunken hut with a beautiful fireplace and thatched roof, large enough for two people to comfortably sleep inside. We completed this project in ten days and then, on the eleventh day, we simultaneously made a friction fire and lit the fireplace to commemorate the achievement.
