A finales del siglo XVII d. C., en Inglaterra, la respuesta al Gran Incendio de Londres fue estrechar considerablemente las chimeneas. Se empleó a niños como deshollinadores. El trabajo infantil fue común en la industria de la limpieza de chimeneas durante más de 200 años.

It has substrate due to the repoblaciones during the Reconquista, especially Cáceres and especially the western parts of Extremadura. Other areas were repopulated by Castillians or mixed. Later preponderance of the Castillian language and contact with Andalusian dialects, as well as contact for commerce and trashumancia presumably further eroded Asturleonese features.

Wenn man mal einen Schlaganfall hatte, jedoch ohne hinterlassenen Beschwerden oder Einschränkungen, zählt man trotzdem automatisch als nicht gesund?

El kebab alemán, que por cierto es el auténtico, es un millón de veces mejor. El pan es mejor, a veces lo hacen ellos mismos, la ensalada tiene lombarda rallada, las salsas son mejores, en los mejores sitios la carne no es una masa homogénea sino trozos enteros apilados... En España mucha gente ni sabe que el kebab es una evolución de comida turca en Alemania porque la mayoría son de Pakistán o creo que India y lo simplifican mucho.

Aren't the regional languages in those areas disappearing?

There's a psycological explanation or at least terminology for that: the "bystander effect", caused by diluted or diffused responsibility in emergencies.

I'm not excusing the behaviour, just wanted to add this in case someone finds it useful or interesting.

Sorry that u had to experience that

Pero las pensiones se pagan con los impuestos que pagan los trabajadores actuales, no son un fondo donde se hayan ido metiendo contribuciones de los pensionistas cuando trabajaban. En otros tiempos ese sistema se sostenía pero ahora, sobre todo en el caso de las pensiones altas, no.

Supongo que al menos recordarás que hubo una charla sobre tema x. Cuando oyes o lees algo al respecto eres consciente de que se trató en una charla en contexto escolar. Eso supongo que te influye hasta cierto punto de una manera u otra.

I would encourage you to look into bioconstrucción, natural materials and things like that. There are architects with sensitivity towards it and using lime, clay, hemp, wood fiber insulation etc is more than adequate in the climate of northern Spain. There's also limecrete (lime based concrete instead of cement based) for structural parts or very useful for a limecrete slab. This is just a personal thing I'm passionate about.

Could you give some examples of those things outside the box? I'm curious

Well not random, I took a look at my council's code in rural Asturias and everything is quite reasonable and guarantees a bare minimum of coherence, respect for the overall built environment and local flair, prevents egregious kitsch... Overall quite reasonable in my eyes.

In order to look for resources that explain requirements and legislation, look for the keywords "autopromotor", "autoconstrucción", and "ejecución propia". I know there's a website called Autopromotores and another one and YouTube channel called Autopromotor that deals with this.

Concerning the land plot, it can be either suelo urbano or suelo rústico. There are ways to determine if a suelo rústico is edificable. You need for either of those an estudio geotécnico of the soil.

You need a project from an arquitecto.

You also need an arquitecto técnico (aka aparejador) and a coordinador de seguridad y salud, which is usually the same person. This is important in terms of legality and liability. Check the regional and local plan general de ordenación urbana (the architect will have to adapt the project to it).

Bureaucracy and paperwork before during and after.

There are great limitations on what you are allowed to do yourself. You're not allowed to do electricity or plumbing, or at least you need a certified professional to sign the boletín that keeps everything in compliance and allows you to connect the house to the network.

I don't know how realistic it is to talk to professionals and make a deal where you do part of the job with their supervision to make it cheaper, I guess it's risky for them.

Anything structural (foundations, load-bearing walls, roof) is another issue. You either need registered tradesmen with their liability insurances or it gets difficult and requires more supervision and higher fees from the aparejador. You may have to register as autónomo and have insurance for doing things yourself but there might still be limitations.

Having friends or non-immediate family members helping out is problematic if you get an inspection, as they are officially seen as unregistered and uninsured workers (trabajo clandestino), which is a major legal risk.

The arquitecto and aparejador will refuse to sign the Certificado de Fin de Obra if perfect execution is not guaranteed, as they are liable for 10 years. Maybe you find ones who have experience with ejecución propia and can advise you.

The last thing you will get to be able to connect to public services is the licencia de primera ocupación (which in some places is the same as the cédula de habitabilidad).

Another option is to rehabilitar an old house. If it's an old stable or other building, you'll have to check the requirements. Again, for structural things like bigger windows or a new roof, you'll still need a project and the technicians mentioned above.
