    Congratulations to the great work you are doing. I understand the work in front of you since I have restored an Hotel Particulier in Québec City Le Chateau du Faubourg that I’m using as a B&B and after 20 years we are still working on the restauration. You will have all kind of happy and depressing moments but the Château will returned all the efforts by converting them by unforgettable and great moments. Don’t give up, we are following your videos from Canada. Hopefully you are back to France to look after your big, old child. Good luck!

    I think you are both wonderful!! I am so happy that you are using the gifts God gave you to restore this chateau and make a place for young people!! God bless you!! I will suggest that you set up a "work away" program where people come and work for room and board. A lot of times you can get skilled workers who know about structural things, electricity etc... Reach out to some of the other chateau owners on you tube! I'm sure they can fill you in! Anyway, I just love what you are doing and I love your attitudes and willingness to follow God's lead!!! Prayers sent your way!!!

    Loving these longer videos 😊 What a fantastic journey to be on. I was thinking the same thing about the work away... Especially if you are going back and forth. You don't need to be 100% up to snuff to have people stay with you. Lots of people are into the process. It would mean things moving along more quickly (not that WE are in any hurry!) and often you can post that you are looking for special skills. It's typically younger twenty somethings that are looking to travel on the cheap but can also be small families and such that are just looking to experience new things. I have a ton of friends who have WOOFERs help on their properties and the response has been overwhelmingly positive! (Praying for you to get back asap!)

    You DID NOT talk a lot! You’re interesting and we love that you share. It must be murder to leave France and the home. I am turning a house into a museum in Ohio, and I don’t have much building construction to do (thank heavens) but just decoration to do, is a lot. And I hate to leave the place even though being here is constant work.
    I can’t get my head around the costs you are incurring and the future costs (mine is costing quit a penny) but I’m glad you are saving this gem -just like I’m attempting to do. Great luck!

    @risalangdon9883 4 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    To be fair, my observations are that it may seem like even though others are complaining about the costs. They are just trying to paint very realistic views/expectations for those who are thinking of buying one of these architectural gorgeous old properties. And they wouldn't want to live anywhere else even with the expenses. You two are doing an amazing job with this home. And I greatly appreciate your openness when speaking of your faith. Sadly, too many people feel threatened by the SJW and hide their beliefs. God should always be front and center. Your channel is refreshing! Wish they were longer lol. But refreshing.
    May God continue to Bless you and you continue to be a Blessing to others 🙏

    Great find, those old post cards and the garden outline. When restored, it will be stunning. The symmetrical garden adds so much more to the chateau and also restoring the square around the building (no grass). No apologies needed for being Canadian. You are both doing a wonderful job and it takes time. The present condition didn't happen overnight so it stands to reason, unless you're a billionaire, that it will take time, research and planning to get to your desired conclusion. It's a process. From your US neighbor.

    As I’m watching these wonderful Chateau videos on TH-cam, I stumble across your channel. I am a fellow Saskatchewanian and believer. Since you mentioned Briercrest in your first video I’m guessing we know a few of the same people because I have a few friends that attended there around the time you would have been there. My Aunt and a uncle used to live at Caronport, I believe they ran a store there. Last name Wollf. I live near Saskatoon. I love your vision for your chateau. It is so beautiful and I love that even though you are turning it into a school you are keeping it as authentic as you can.

    I am so enjoying your adventure. I’ve seen the videos of the tours of each floor, but I haven’t seen ones that use the layout of the Chateau, as you are walking through, for the main floor and the basement. I know you walked through both but it’s sometimes hard to picture exactly where you are. Did I miss those videos? Anyway what a wonderful opportunity for the both of you and what a blessing for the students who get to participate.

    If you can live with the French and can't speak French but Canadians do speak French. To take this major project on I have to salute you.

    You should build a pizza oven to use all the wood and everyone can make their own pizzas

      It's not so bad when you do your own work. Paint isn't too bad, some of the appliances and furniture were a bit spendy, but lots of things can be done for a reasonable amount. The roof..... that will be spendy :(

    Replace with timber. Have you thought about Work away's think you register then I don't know it works but people come help with home work about 5 hrs everyday, you need to look into in because you might find a few really good helpers, from cooking washing cleaning just helping. Google work away see what pops up.

      Oh YES!!! Yes PLEASE!! No doubt you will get SO MANY VIEWS and most likely donations! Everyone loves a good come back and I haven’t seen anyone redo any of the original gardens as of yet on any of the chateau TH-cam channels yet. Even if you did a little at a time... maybe you could even have a landscape artist and gardeners teach classes at the chateau in order to have additional people/students come to learn while getting it back to its original state!! That would be a great idea and would be so fun for them to experience and for us to watch from a distance!!
      I’m so thankful I found your channel so I can live vicariously through you both. It’s my dream to come to France and buy a chateau as well... One day!!! Xo!!
