The sheer amount of work involved is inspiring. So many nights just crawling into bed dusty and exhausted only to get up and do it all again. I'm sure there were arguments and days where you questioned it all, but it's worth it, so so worth it. The results are beautiful. The production quality is amazing. The combination of light, color and sound is transporting. I can see, smell and taste it all, quality storytelling. Keep doing what your doing. Thanks for sharing and bringing us all along for journey.
I’m a 75 yr old man from South Africa. Your endeavours are inspirational. You succeed even when you fail because others are taught. Your parents would be hugely proud just as your children will be. Bless you all in a world of new values. Stay true to yours.
Your family is living the dreams of many people. for some of us it will only be a dream because of different circumstances. But hats off to you, for your hard work and your videos are very well put together. All the best for your future
Ikr! I also dream to someday find a home that is somewhat run down, but manageable so I can restore it and make it to my taste. Sadly that costs loads of money
Wow! I loved every minute of this, I was lost with you and slowly it all started to come together, well done both of you. Such hard work and the vision you have , I take my hat off to you x
What an amazing job your family is doing! Your two boys are getting such good training and they are so adorable! Thank you for sharing what you are learning!
@@LivingintheLoire Haha! So true, my parents brought me home from the hospital to our old farmhouse and there are STILL jobs to be done! New jobs that haven't even been started yet!
I don’t know if it’s the music, the fact that I’m waiting to homestead, the fact that I’m pregnant, or just that the video makes me emotional but I wanted to cry the whole time 😅 Such a huge and rewarding undertaking for your family. It’s beautiful to watch you build a legacy on such a beautiful, historic property.
My wife and I retired and moved to Kentucky, USA at the beginning of the Pandemic. A year later we found and purchased property and because we were waiting for the economy to become stable again, we planted fruit trees, established 18 no till garden beds, several raised beds and preserved lots of good healthy food while waiting to build our home. This year we added 21 additional garden beds and hope to sell at the Farmers Market. Your video brought me to tears. Such great memories. At 66, I remember the first year. It was challenging work but never have I felt more complete. I admire you for beginning this journey and teaching your children this way of life. I loved the video and will continue to follow your journey. Cheers!
Bravo for your efort and forward thinking. Those years broke a lot of people ...& I don't mean just physically. Many lost their businesses and whole way of life. Moving to the country increasingly sounds like a good idea. I just wish I were younger, like this industrious but sensitive couple!
In all honesty the sheer amount of work you put in reviving the land is indeed appreciable. Y'all are living my dream. The cinematography and editing is top notch.
Totally agree with you 👍💯 What an amazing family with an amazing vision & mission 🏆💪🎊🎉💖 Yes , you are so right - the cinematography , pacing & music are exceptional 🤩🤩🤩 I felt like I was watching a Documentary in a cinema that pulled me into an alternate reality 💫💫💫 I could even taste the cherries & watermelon 😆😂😋😋🍒🍉
“We grew in our ability to transform the neglected…” such a powerful line. You have definitely made such a transformation! I loved watching you plant and harvest. Not only in your farm, but in your life. All your hard work has given a fruitful harvest. God bless you and your beautiful family💕. -Dyana
How wonderful you both are. Not only to tackle such a (seemingly) endless and uphill task, but to do it with two babes in the midst of a pandemic and in a new country. I am filled with admiration at your story thus far and hope that your future plans bring you equal amounts of achievement and joy. Brava! Bravo!
I can't imagine the face you guys made when you first arrived at the property and saw all that mess! But woah! This is probably the best restoration video I've ever watched. We got to see your children, plants, and abilities grow, everything. What a beautiful video, glad you documented this process. I have no words to describe how happy I felt watching it. Hats off, you did an incredible and beautiful job, guys.
Every time I watch one of these things I learn something, we did something similar in central Portugal back on 2016, never looked back. A smaller house, an acre of garden with vines and 25 mature olive trees, but not a gardener. Mind, I am a good few years older, but still pushing it, a lot of similarities and still making improvements. Thanks for sharing.
Absolutely amazing what you both have achieved, and while raising a young family, beautifully put together video, hope you’re well and can’t wait to follow you on your further journey x
Just bought a 4 bed townhouse with 1000m² of land in the Almeria mountains of Spain. I am a 53 year old lady used to singing in Spain, but am not going to let this stop me 😅 Thank you for ideas - would love more insight into your struggles and wins. Love Claire ❤
I’m amazed at what you’ve accomplished so far. So many unexpected problems with the houses but you did a boatload of renovation. The gardens are wonderful. I subscribed and look forward to watching more of your progress. 🌷
I am from SouthWest France. We are so lucky that so many northern europeans come and restore lands, houses, and even entire villages, that we unfortunately don't always take care properly.
This is how healthy child-rearing-aged adults are designed to live. Good on ya for accomplishing the baseline of our ancestors status quo. It’s soothing to live vicariously
I liked how you showed the neighbor farmer at work in their fields as a time stamp. And when this is all done, you get to live & grow old IN FRANCE! And you were able to give this gift to your children. Thanks for sharing this video with me, I really enjoyed it!
Always happy when something you fixed has solved the problem. Kudos to you. There is just no telling how much money you have saved over the years being able to do all the repairs you have tackled. Have a Blessed day.
Thank you for such a lovely vlog on your journey to France. You have done so much and have worked so hard. I have been watching your channel since the very beginning and am so impressed with all you have done. You have both learned so many amazing skills and have been such wonderful roll models for your two beautiful boys. Thank you for this 2 year celebration of your journey!!💝
I have the utmost respect for anyone so willing to live their life without compromise. You decided on the life you wanted, and went for it. Good on you.
I am utterly moved by your way of living that YOU have created for yourselves. Watching the process, i could only imagine how challenging this must have been. But in the end you pulled through - beautiful to watch. Greetings from Vienna, Austria
Это прекрасная история, наполненная смелостью, стойкостью, творчеством и свободой. Огромная работа! Очень вы серьезные умные ребята!!! Удачи Вам и Счастья!!!
What a great job these people have done, what the household looks like at the beginning and what it looks like at the end, after the completion of the complex renovation work!
Your video really caught my attention with its editing. Things like trimming vines on the wall then cutting hair absolutely drew my attention to the fun you have together as a family. And I wanted to watch more. Thanks. I really enjoyed your 24 minutes covering 24 months.
You deserve the absolute Very Best of good fortune. Your work ethic is incredible. Wishing you every blessing the universe provides. Look forward to seeing your well earned success.
This video is an documentry of grit, resolve and perseverance. It shows how our ooder generations lived and enjoyed nature. As well as why humankind has been able to survive after all, its because of strong minded hard workers like you two.
It already looks so beautiful. Its a big house, with many options, & that’s a lot of work. You do such a great job. I’m looking forward to see your new website. Good luck with the next steps. 🍀
When I was a younger man about 125 years ago,I had ambitions like this.Now all I can do is sit back and admire those who can and do these endless projects.My hat is off to them.
Hi Brook and Rebecca and boys, what you two have achieved in the past two years is absolute legend! I hadn't seen such detailed footage of the state the property was in as a whole when you moved there, only bits, and seeing that, and what you've achieved in the grounds alone is truly incredible. The continuous battle of dampness, electricals and leaks would have had most people throwing in the towel very fast, but you have stuck it out and made it all work. I realise there's still a lot of renovation/restoration work to be done on the buildings, but you've proved that you're well up for it! Huge hugs and much love xxx🤗❤❤🤗
What a lovely comment, thank you Karen. Brook tried really hard to use footage that he hadn't previously so for long-tome supporters like yourself you'd still be seeing new bits. Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for the support as.always 😊
Wow I got goose bumps because that’s how I grew up with my grandpa and grandmas house was 20 trees of fruits and a big garden of all the vegetables it was so much fun clomping the trees and enjoying all those fruits and that’s what I call it a true healthy life and you guys made the best decision for your kids and it all worth it
An absolutely delightful video. Has been wonderful to watch. Yes it is damned hard work,been there done that, but you as a family will reap the benefit for years to come. Lovely too your parents are able to contribute and the children will always remember their presence. You made the right decision and your resilience throughout your lives together will always hold you in good stead. Thank you for taking time to give us such a wonderful insight. Bless you all and feel blessed. You took an enormous step of faith and the universe worked with you. Xxx
this was so beautifully filmed/edited, and it’s so inspiring 😭 to do all of this in a foreign country, during a pandemic with children!! it’s insane but clearly so worthwhile. congratulations, i wish you all the happiness, health and success!!! 💕💕💕
I have never been so proud of complete strangers in my life. I am in tears! My husband and I have been farmers in America for 7 years with 3 small children, farming on old land that is in need of so much love and redemption. Circumstances have been difficult to say the least, but I have never respected and loved my husband more and watching one another grow in skills and dedication to our shared passion has been inexplicable, I wouldn’t trade it for less hardship and work. I also see this in your story and have just subscribed! Thank you so much for this video, it has made me all the more committed to our family ideals. You are doing good work, redemption and sharing beauty with the world is a holy and worthwhile thing. Best of luck!
It's rather amazing how much you've accomplished in that short of time! I'll be looking forward to seeing your upcoming videos! Hopefully when you are able to root out all the didden and not so hidden troubles in your own living space, the unexpected obstacles and setbacks won't be so traumatic to you and your darling children! You both are quite gifted in narrating your videos. It was very interesting but your voices were relaxing as I sit here nursing a broken leg! Keep up the good work! Hope to see you again soon! Shorter videos more often would be ok if it would make it more possible! Thank you, and blessings from WallaWalla, Washington USA
Absolutely beautiful film. Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us. Such hard work, and yet such harmony. I can’t wait to see what the future holds for you x
Wow! I’m so impressed over how good of a job you guys have done. You’re definitely not amateurs anymore. Very inspiring. Thank you for documenting the work!
To me this is the dream life. I was born and raised in Paris so I am a city girl at heart but I can’t wait to one day buy a house in the French country side because I have beautiful memories as a child visiting my aunt during the holidays at her country side home . It looked exactly like this her house was literally in a middle of nothing she had 5 neighbours. But the landscape, and trees of fruits, the potager, I use to call her place the little house on the prairie. You guys did are did and are doing an amazing job. You’re kids will be forever grateful to you. You should be proud of yourselves.
Congratulations on your huge restoration project. The farm is growing more livable by the day through all your hard work and your children are beautiful and happy. The garden is incredible and I love the flowers. I wanted to shop at your online "Studio" but the page wouldn't come up? Your weaving looked so interesting and so did the pottery. Can't wait. Bonne chance and thanks for taking me along on your journey. Mary Ann, Chicago
your family unit, mommy, daddy, children and grand-parents are so lovely. It's so nice to grow your own food especially great for children and to live in green spaces. You did an amazing job at restoring so far, can't wait to see the progress :)
A big congratulations to you both for all your hard works and determination. So much you have both achieved, whilst raising to adorable children. I wish you much more success in the next year of your projects. Loved watching you on your journey😘
My goodness you have worked hard, and what a beautiful family. I would have loved an opportunity to do something similar, but a bit late for us now, as we're in our 70's! I guess I'll be watching your progress and remaining a tad envious!
I have nothing seen more beautiful than this ever on youtube. This is something I wanted all my life and now I see my imagination as a reality in your video. Thankyou. 😊
I loved this! We're just 2 months in working on our old farmhouse. (Only 160 years old.) I'm looking forward to having 2 YEARS of progress under our belts. Thank you for the inspiration!
I am thoroughly exhausted and this only was 25 minutes long. I don’t know where you guys found your strength. But I am so impressed. Keep going.
I second this
Probably because you just wasted 25 minutes of your life and didn't benefit from it. Like everyone who watches television or some media.
@@SCARRIOR oh you must be fun to be arround with
@@FoCuSsports
Time isn't wasted if you enjoyed the video. That couple and their kids are all awesome! 💙💙💙💙
@@SCARRIOR not wasted if you learn something. You apparently DID waste 25 minutes, because you can't find anything positive to say!
I am a 37 year old contractor and watching this moved me to tears. You have a beautiful family and are creating a beautiful space to enjoy it.
Calm down.

Good luck in the garden this weekend Felicia
I love the ethereal music in your video’s they compliment the content so very very well.
Thank you, I'd love to take the credit but it's all Brook!

You have accomplished so much in a relatively small amount of time. Wishing you much success with the shop and selling both your pottery and weavings.

Absolutely remarkable your work ethic and grit and determination is paying off. Keep going, don’t stop, push on.
A big congratulations to you both for all your hard works and determination. So much you have both achieved, whilst raising to adorable children. I wish you much more success in the next year of your projects. Loved watching you on your journey😘
Thank you Annette, that's really lovely of you. Thank you for supporting the channel 😊
My goodness you have worked hard, and what a beautiful family. I would have loved an opportunity to do something similar, but a bit late for us now, as we're in our 70's! I guess I'll be watching your progress and remaining a tad envious!
You should be proud of all you have achieved & deserve every success.
I have nothing seen more beautiful than this ever on youtube. This is something I wanted all my life and now I see my imagination as a reality in your video. Thankyou. 😊
For beginners you both did a wonderful job fixing up the house and property!
This is my first time watching your blog and I must say I like it very much and will be looking forward to watching your progress. Keep it up!
This is a great story. I look forward to seeing more of your improvements and successes.
Thank you Diana 😊
I do as well, it's great to see such determination.
Superbly done...I loved the story, the way it was told, and the engaging film work. Well Done!!
YOU ARE THE KING AND QUEEN OF WORKING AND FIGHTING LIFE
I loved this! We're just 2 months in working on our old farmhouse. (Only 160 years old.) I'm looking forward to having 2 YEARS of progress under our belts. Thank you for the inspiration!
Incredible! Can’t wait to see more.
Loved your vlog. Congratulations to all. Cheers from Melbourne Australia 🇦🇺
Amazing! I am full of admiration for all you have achieved.
Hats off to both of you to do this with two small kids. Very very well done!
I am literally speechless. What a determination what a beautiful family.
