After eight years of digging in the garden to build a house, Andrés has a place for himself with electricity, water, and Wi-Fi.

Andres resides with his parents in the Spanish town of La Romana. Many years ago, when he was just 14, he yearned to don a tracksuit and play in the city, but his parents refused to let him.

Enraged, he grabbed a hoe and began digging in the garden, determined to construct his own dwelling.

After some time, he carved out a subterranean space and sought a tranquil area to unwind. Fast forward eight years and the modest hole had transformed into Andres' own personal underground lair. Now 22, the teenager resides independently in the comfort of his subterranean abode.

Ascending from the courtyard, a set of steps lead to the structure consisting of a living area, bedroom, and kitchenette. Inside his underground abode, Andres has installed a complete sound system to listen to music, four electrical outlets, and a coal stove.

Despite the presence of insects, snails, and spiders, as well as frequent flooding due to heavy rainfall, the temperature inside remains cool, hovering around 20-21 degrees Celsius even in the hottest summer months.

Andres exclaimed, "It's fantastic. I have all the necessities. Sometimes, the humidity and lack of ventilation can be exhausting. Nevertheless, I persist in digging every day to perfect my apartment's home.
