    Hello. I am from a place in New England called Vermont. We always have grazed sheep and large herds of cows. This is the best way for living and raising children. As a young mother I carried all our water and washed by hand. We worked on the lands daily and were always healthy. Thank you.

    My grandfather actually migrated from Sweden to Maine. I was born in Maine. My grandfather taught me everything I know about the woods. I have tried to carry that knowledge on to my children and now my grandchildren. I have always attributed my ability to survive and my strength to my grandfather. I loved and admired in every way. I truly enjoyed watching your family. I to always wanted to live in the alagash which was a uncharted wilderness in northern Maine. I still day dream of being there to this day.

    Growing up poor on a farm I learned to pray when it was butchering time and say thanks before I ate for the life given to sustain ours. My job was to hold the chickens when mother chopped their heads. If you decide to eat meat, you can do it in a humane and loving way. I may have cried eating some pet animals but I was always thankful for food. Beautiful video, looking forward to safe improvements that take advantage of modern knowledge for building and improving your lives.

    Thank you for another view of a family that I have been following for the past year. In the early 1970s I lived a similar homesteading lifestyle on one of the Gulf Islands on the coast of British Columbia, Canada: no running water, no electricity, raising goats, chickens and sheep. Now in my 70s, I follow several 'back to the land' homesteading sites. One in particular and who seems to be a leader in this chosen lifestyle is Justin Rhodes who lives in North Carolina. What viewing these people has impressed upon me is the real need and commitment to 'partnership. Without it, is failure. I admire the couples who have made sober commitment to this lifestyle. It really is the superior choice in living a balanced life anywhere on our beautiful Earth. Sincerely, Sharon Penneyford, Victoria, BC, Canada🐝🐝🍀

    Kalle, your videos are very important to me. I live alone as you used to. Sadly I am not in a cabin in a rural area but a brick built bungalow in a town, and it might sound strange, but it is just as lonely.
    I like my own company now and keep busy with creative projects, painting, drawing, crocheting hand made blankets in mosaic style. Sadly I am not self sufficient, but making good food with organic produce is important. I am disabled and unable to garden or grow my own things, and as much as I would love to isolate myself in rural place, it is not possible. That is where you and your videos come in to my life. Inspiring me to go on with my life as it is, and to see a young couple living their dream and sharing it, so thank you 🙏 to both of you. Merry Christmas 🎄

    Don't sweat the unfinished projects. There will always be unfinished projects. Down the line the projects you got done years ago will need refinishing. We've had our home for about 24 years. The first project we tackled was the kitchen. Now, we desperately need to redo it. The tiles are worn, the cabinets need refacing, appliances need to be replaced...etc. The key is not to feel defeated. Just do your best, and take one day at a time, and work on the most pressing projects. You'll get there. The great thing is that you are documenting everything, and one day, you can look back and see how far you've come. You are so inspiring! Keep up the good work.

They may have several unfinished projects, but they never stop working…I have so very much respect for both of them. It’s like you said…everything takes time. There projects are HUGE for just two people, then when you include everyday chores on top of it!😳 it’s definitely a young persons like style. I get exhausted just watching them!🤣.
    The effort also when they create their vlogs is magical. The time put into filming and editing, well you know. It’s consuming!

Electricity is reasonable here, but if that changes, it will not be a hardship to light the kitchen wood stove and our oil lamps. We would need a deep well hand pump, but otherwise good to live off-grid and be ok. We are grateful to be sheltered away during this pandemic and live close to the land ~ Diane

    For a long time I dreamt of moving in to my cabin in Norway. Now that that’s a reality I dream of having a farm. A farm with sheep, cows and chickens. The only issue is that I could never butcher them, and when the butcher comes to take the animals I could not know about it. 😅 For now I’m hoping I can help some of my neighbors with their farm animals. Next year I’m hoping to build a greenhouse to get some more food from the garden. This year we only had herbs and tomatoes. Thank you for yet another beautiful video Kalle! ❤️🌲

      @@HannahWestsea I am so glad to hear that people starts to question where their food comes from and how it is produced!
      Here are some thoughts.
      You still would need to manage your herd, you're going to run into problems with too many roosters, too many rams or too many bulls and if one doesn't cull them everything is going to be a disaster.
      There is nothing wrong with butchering ones own food, especially from animals one has raised and loved.
      In nature, nothing lives without death.
      There is no hierarchy - we are all in an interconnected cycle of which death is a completely normal part.
      We simply cannot have life without death.
      Concider this:
      A peasant becomes fond of his pig and is glad to salt away its pork. What is significant, and is so difficult for the urban stranger to understand, is that the two statements are connected by an and not by a but.

    I do enjoy watching these videos from various “youtubers “ about simplifying lives and living in nature appreciating her terms - adjusting our pace. A lot of people seem to be longing for a change in their current lifestyle; wanting to get out of the rat race. However, we viewers should remember that watching someone’s video is not life - it is a collage they choose to show. All of us cannot for various reasons move into remote cottages and live off the land BUT we can practice a mental state of “Talasbuan”/“Kalle Flodin”/“Jonna” etc in our everyday lives wherever we live and whatever we do. It’s about stopping in the midst of it all and breathing, seeing the beauty around in both both nature and people, appreciating what we have rather than thinking we are lacking, being kind to ourselves and others, saying thanks and asking how can I help. Accepting that we need help and support.I wish all of you the very best in finding your own “Talasbuan”❤️🙏🏻

    Best crossover in the "nordic youtubers" section ever. It's obvious that your video quality is outstanding but I want to mention it anyway. There are so many details in the way you produce your videos, like fact that the dynamic range in the fire scenes is so good. I just love it when you can see all the details in the flame and still have a bright enough surrounding, although I often fail to achieve that look myself 🤣 But these are things I always notice and like a lot.

    I've been a patreon of Talasbuan for more than 1,5 years, and got to know Kalle and Christine, an this channel, from Talasbuan's video of your visit at their place, and now I've subscribed and watches some videos from this channel too.
    Like with Talasbuan, I have the same "problem" here: The videos are too short! :D
    But luckily, there are prior videos I haven't seen and more will come :D
    It's very interesting to follow these amazing "journeys" and a lifestyle that for centuries and until about 100 years ago was a completely normal way of living.
    And now called a "stress-free" life despite all the long and hard workdays and with every task depending on the seasons and the weather, and what was/is basic needs in short and long sight.
    Prior, when this was a normal life, I don't think it was a choice for many, and this being a choice today, after living/witnessing a stress-filled, unhealthy and very unnatural life, can only make a huge difference and make this life a lot better today than for those back then who didn't choose it.
    It was a hard life for all, and I don't think was seen as an idyllic lifestyle for the majority of women... Though I more or less was taught this from watching "Emil fra Lønneberg" when I was a child.
    And women today choosing this life, it's kinda an "honor" to the women back then, as well as an overall honor to the work and craft from the men and women, as I know you use their experiences in so many ways in your daily life.
    Thank you for inviting us in, and giving us one more unique perspective of a
    of grid lifestyle in northern Sweden anno 2021.
