Here's a little look at what we've achieved over the last 12 months on our land. We still have to pinch ourselves that we live here and we are actually doing this! We can't thank everyone enough for all the advice, tips, suggestions and support you have given us along the way. We are so grateful ❤️ now the big question...Will we be in for Christmas?! The countdown is on 😅
I have no idea who is saying that you two are going to slow. They need to jump out from behind their keyboard & volunteer to help! I am true to say, you're going faster than I could, that's for sure! I hope you both are so proud of yourselves! That's a Whole building & don't forget you have built other buildings on the property than just 1!!! Give yourselves the credit & pat each other's backs. You deserve it! Great video!
You really have achieved so much and worked so hard at every task and project you have done and are such a lovely couple , I've been with you from the beginning and on every video the love you have for each other and your project shines through, you have come such a long way and expanded your knowledge and mine and learnt some hard lessons along the way, But it's been amazing to be able to be a part of it so thankyou. Looking gorward to seeing your dreams coming to fruition, you deserve every success and happiness big kiss as always to Maggie xxx
I love this recap. I have been watching since your third video ( I went back and watched the first 2 ) and have enjoyed your journey with your cabin build. Turning rubish piles into a beautiful debt free homestead is amazing. I don't mind that it's taking time, I enjoy your videos. I am looking forward to seeing what comes next. Hugs to you all 🤗🤗🤗
The 3 (have to include Maggie) of you are doing amazing. Not only are you working full time, your building your future and upkeeping the land. That is something that you should be proud of. Da iawn, hugs from a nain.
You’ve achieved so much in the last year, when I’m watching each video it’s hard to realise what you’ve done in such a short space of time. That’s as well as working in your main job! I was sorry your first glamping tent didn’t work out but I’m sure you will get it sorted in the future. You are both an inspiration and just keep doing what you’re doing at a pace that suits you, which is great as you aren’t trying to fit too much in to each video. ❤
Amazing work guys! You have come so far in such a short time, in so many ways. Super excited to see you in for Christmas & we’ll buy you a Mulled wine or 2 if we see you at the Christmas market 👍👌👏
Been watching u guys from the start, your doing a fantastic job, love your content, me and the wife love watching u guys! Were be a customer of yours once your up and running. Watching u guys from Portsmouth.
You two are your have watched you for a long time now .watching this brilliant vlog .I have no doubt you will fulfil your dreams and even more and you will be in by Christmas. ❤
I can't believe that you have done so much in your 1st year. Watching you from video to video really doesn't show how much you have achieved. I hope your families are proud of you because, if not, your viewer family totally are. A question and suggestion. When finally finished with your plans, are you going to move your candle making to the site? Will you build a little viewing cabin with videos to show how the site was re- energised and how it came to be a beautiful holiday destination. ❤
I cannot believe how much you’ve done without racking up debt and maintaining your careers. Your determination and hard work are truly incredible. I hope the next year is truly wonderful for you. ❤
Anyone who says you are not getting things done fast enough is crazy!!!! You have so much!! Plus you are so smart not to be going into debt and building as you can afford it. Just ignore anyone who says that!! They obviously haven’t been paying attention. I have been watching since you first started and I am just amazed at how much you have accomplished while working full time.
I feel so honoured to have shared your story from tje beginning. I love and admire what you are doing. Stay well and happy. Are 4 tiny Chihuahuas allowed to come and stay for a holiday with me and my son when yiu are up and running?❤
You two have done an amazing amount of work over the past year or so! Just cleaning up those old caravans was an enormous task. Ive followed along with you and have been so impressed with your tireless dedication and perfection in all you do. Jon and Emilie you are to be commended. Look forward to the rest of the journey!
I’ve been watching your videos right from the start, whilst building and travelling in two consecutive truck-home builds of my own. Anyone who says you’re building too slow needs to realise that you’re not just building a home, but also preparing the land for a glamping business and smallholding so getting your drainage sorted, your vegetables growing, glamping tent areas planned and built, and facilities such as showers, toilets and laundry also has to be factored into the entire project.
You two work so hard, and are doing an amazing job. Don't listen to the ones saying you're not fast enough. You're doing great. Looking forward to seeing the next steps.
Occassionally an abandoned piece of land gets the perfect owners. That's what happened here - you are creating such a happy place for yourselves and future guests. Lots of love from the Netherlands
I can't believe that it has been a year! I am here for the long haul. Your journey has been amazing. Thank you both for sharing the amazing journey! Hugs to Maggie ❤
It's hard to see how much work has been done on the land watching it week by week but watching this one it's blown me away how much you 2 have achieved. Well done guys! It's looking amazing ❤
I don't understand why people would comment that you are slow! Much respect for you guys, doing this next to your jobs. I really love what you're doing. It is very inspiring. ❤
Quality re-cap having missed a few videos over some of the last year. Will never understand anyone complaining too slow etc. it's people like yourselves and a few others that show a more realistic and proper way of going about all this while still having too work jobs and play the long game which will work out a lot better in the end. There's some great off grid channels doing good things but they seem to get crazy stuff delivered every other week just about , which is so unrealistic and more or less impossible to most people who are interested in learning about living this type of way. Great to see it coming together from where you first started. Hats off to you both & all the best
It’s amazing to see in a time lapse just how much you have achieved. I have watched from the beginning and appreciate the amount of work that has been, you are not to slow and to be debt free at the finish is the best goal. I know it’s also time consuming to film and edit what you are doing. ( even though it’s part of you job it still takes time.) thank you so much for sharing 🇦🇺
It's really nice to see a recap video... so we can see how far you've come and get an idea of the big picture you have in mind to bring into reality. I hope you maintain that sense of accomplishment even when it feels like you are just spinning your wheels. Every little accomplishment makes a difference. Thanks for sharing this journey with us.
Well, I and many others it seems have enjoyed watching your progress. Not once have I ever thought you are going too slow. I love your energy and kudos for your achievements so far. Am looking forward to seeing your dreams realised, in your own time.
Great progress and I love your approach "No Debt" this will allow you enjoy what you have achieved without worry. The pace of the build is appropriate to you and that is all that matters.
You guys are amazing. Whoever said you were building too slow has no idea what is involved and that you have full time jobs too. Ignore them they are fools! I love following your progress and keep everything crossed that you are your home for Xmas. Kia kaha, stay strong. With love from New Zealand x❤
Amazing recap. Just love your channel. Never apologize for being debt free and being such hard working people! Here’s to your future while acknowledging how far you’ve come🎉
As a banker and a member of life long zero debt couple , my wife and I applaud your choice to avoid all debt. IMHO Zero debt makes for a better stress reduced life. Bad economic times come and go but zero debt makes them more tolerable.
You two have done an amazing job! With a very small budget and a ton of work you have come so far and not only have you done all that you also consistently put out great videos about it. Really look forward to seeing what else you will do. Greeting from Vancouver Canada
Wow. You have done amazing things with the site. You both have learned so much and come a very long way. The tiny house is almost there on the outside. Great work. I notice Maggie is always interested in what you are doing.
I'm glad to see you guys are making an amazing amount of progress on your property and your new home. I looked forward to seeing what the future hasn't stored for you guys. Sending you much love and prayers from orange county california.
You have both done really well. You are building for the long term so take your time and ignore the naysayers. To have your land and your home free of debt allows you to develop your dream and relish the freedom it gives you. Hope you are in by Christmas, but if not then you will be by the next one. Don’t pressure yourselves and make sure you smile at the end of everyday. 😎
Its amazing all youve done,no doubt you will be warm and toasty in your home soon,if not fully completed by December 25th,you will be able to be comforable in there with Maggie opening presents and drinking something lovely.
you should be so proud of yourselves. the trouble when you have so much to do is you forget how far you have come, there's just no time to reflect! what a great adventure for you both and to be working full-time as well is incredible. I'm sure it doesn't feel like it sometimes but what a dream you are creating. continued best of luck and here's to many more happy memories in the future. best of luck with your Christmas plans but there will be plenty more if you don't make it 👍
Have been watching from the start - love your vision and unrelenting energy.. you are inspiring and love that one of you does so much DIY in very fabulous clothes including white 😁 Very excited for your cabin - and can't fathom showering outside in the UK!
Very sensible staying clear of debt only adds more stress, you are doing an amazing job and have really come a long way in the last year it is the best thing to take your time. I hold my hat off to you both on how far you have come . So hope you are in by Xmas and look forward to your progression good luck to you both and keep calm and carry on.👏🏠♥
Great recap of all your hard work on the land! I’ve been here since the start of your channel and think you’re both fab! What you’ve achieved in such a short time is astonishing. Here’s to Christmas! 🎄
I love your hard work!! Question, will you have security on your land for visitors staying? Especially if you just in a tent, i was wondering how safe that would be. If i ever make it to the uk i will most certainly be a guest!
Yes we will 😄 we will have cctv and the guest area at the back of the land with be secured. Each glamping guest will also have a lockable space within their private ensuite they will have a key too to store any vaulables 😃
Wow, you made a lot of progress. I missed some bits of the beginning so this was nice to fill the gaps. Ps: when you use the multi tool please please please angel the blade the way you are going 😁🥳 Love seeing your hard work
Just found out that the rental property me and the kids are in is being sold! We have til just after Xmas to find a new home and move! Needless to say it has hit us hard, we have begun packing up bits we can whilst constantly looking for houses! Today I need a rest day as I have Me amongst other things so to lie down and get a full recap video is bliss! We might be camping out somewhere after Xmas 😂
Sorry to hear about your situation, hopefully you find somewhere for your family and don't let it all stress you too much, i'm glad you've enjoyed watching our timelapse, these are video's for us to look back on when we feel a bit worn out with out project to give us a reminder of what we've done and get us motivated again to crack on.
You two are doing such an amazing job! Its astounding that which you have accomplished! Removing the tons of rubbish was an enormous feat in itself. I'm looking forward to seeing the continued progress. Just a question though: will you have to remove the sheets that look like foil in order to run your plumbing and electric? Or did I miss something? Again jobs well done!
Hi Guys I've been here right from the start and you've achieved so much, Hope it does work out that you're in by Christmas 🤶 that will be just super smashing great lol 😂 cheers 🥂
I'm so disappointed with myself. I didn't manage to click the thumbs up button until 5 seconds into this video. I apologise profusely. 😆 Love you guys!
Here's a little look at what we've achieved over the last 12 months on our land. We still have to pinch ourselves that we live here and we are actually doing this! We can't thank everyone enough for all the advice, tips, suggestions and support you have given us along the way. We are so grateful ❤️ now the big question...Will we be in for Christmas?! The countdown is on 😅
Full respect for the debt free approach. Don’t listen to anyone who says you’re doing it too slow.
I have no idea who is saying that you two are going to slow. They need to jump out from behind their keyboard & volunteer to help! I am true to say, you're going faster than I could, that's for sure!
I hope you both are so proud of yourselves! That's a Whole building & don't forget you have built other buildings on the property than just 1!!!
Give yourselves the credit & pat each other's backs. You deserve it! Great video!
Great recap guys, remember it's your journey and nobody else's. Enjoy the ride,and may the weather be kind the next few weeks 🤞
You both have come so far since purchasing your block, so proud of you both.
