Hi Janette. Haven't thought about those really. Actually a good idea too. Getting more suggestions. I think I need to be able to find them. Would be lovely and carefree.
Your work day after day looks great! Taking a day off here and there never hurt anyone. I agree with the Taylor Swift music but she's a billionaire now, so she's doing something right. Have a fabulous week ahead.
Hi Rosa. Alsolutely true and yes she is doing something right. Ultimately I wasn't really taking away by the music. So I guess I stick to the idea that there is better music around :)) Thanks for the nice comment!
True inspiration of how one guy with a vision and purpose can create such an inviting environment. Survey your surroundings with great pride young fella. Best of the day is seeing a much deserved vino while observing the many changes in progress.
Thanks Jay! I really look forward to many evenings enjoying the fruits of my labour and admiring the job done but mostly just looking at the creation itself is a joy for me!
Pfff tell me about it. And you seem to need them always and everywhere. Garden, pavement, tiling, painting, welding...... Looking forward to a slow summer. I mean .. without any building work.
Hallo lieber Bartholome, jede Woche gibt es so viel Interessantes in Deinem Haus und Garten zu bestaunen. Einfach großartig! Weiterhin viel Freude und Energie zum weiter bauen und werken. Liebe Grüße Bea 😊👍👍👍🦋🐝☘
Danke Bea. Ja, manchmal geht es jetzt sehr schnell. Nach so vielen Jahren kann man jetzt wirklich die Ergebnisse all meiner Pläne und Ideen sehen, die ich hatte und habe. Das finde ich auch sehr schön und ermutigend. Gruß.
A great video Bart, yes maybe Mama Nature forced you to retreat a little, take a breather, have a coffee and off you go again at full gallop! I always love seeing the garden areas in your videos, they make me happy. The older I get, the more I prefer the in-your-own-sweet-time philosophy to life. I am sure your knees must be wrecked from all that work. Alcohol of Rosemary rubbed on the kneecaps it may help to reduce suffering in these areas. I am fascinated to know what the "romantic side project" is. Thank you for another wonderful update of your work in progress. Have a wonderful week. 😘
Thanks Vivienne. And oh yes. That little side project has been on my mind ever since I build that tecnical room and the adjacent staircase with chestnut beams. Left some space there for that romantic idea I have in my mind. Hope it works out well. Just that the weather is a bity in the way right now. Need to do some welding. Not with rain.
Absolutely love the garden and I am in awe of what you’ve built, the place is beautiful! I see you’re doing very well with the welding, I bet it saves you plenty doing it yourself. Did I see you had 6 apartments? Wow, I thought you only had 3….
:))) Thanks Romo. It was really one week but if I look back sometimes ... it's a lot. I don't really stand still too long and too often. When something is done like the pavement around the pool, today it looks like it has been there for months..
Thanks for the update Bart. In spite of the weather you managed to get a lot done this week. Good to get the bark mulch down. It’s great for keeping the weeds down. We are having a cold snap as well. I had to cover all my veggies in case of frost. It’s hard to believe it nearly May. Thanks Bart. 😊👍🏻 Till next time, take care of yourself. Happy gardening! 🪴😊
Hi Ann. In ourt valley the lost lots of potential fruit blossom because the temperatures dropped to much. Lucky for me I am on the hill. During these periods there can easily be a 5 degree difference. I think that bark looks nice too but I still have lots of meters to clear, clean and cover. W'll get there. Greetings!
Nagyon megnyerő az ízlésed, akár a kertet nézem, akár a házat. Sehol nincs túlzás, az arányok tökéletesek. Ha minden elkészül, teljes lesz a harmónia. Gratulálok, sok öröt kívánok hozzá!
Köszönöm Csabane! Ezt jól látod. Ez egy nagy projekt, de mindig úgy éreztem, hogy az egyik nem megy a másik nélkül. a jövőbe nézek. Valami szépet látok!
Bonjour Bartholome, je viens de découvrir ta chaine TH-cam, et je me suis visionné toutes les vidéos une après l'autre en deux jours. Je trouve ton aventure passionnante, tu sais bien travailler, tu fais des bons choix de matériaux et tu as choisi une très belle région. C'est vrai que c'est stratégique comme tu le dis dans une de tes vidéos. C'est un point central et il fait bon vivre. Je suis français, mais j'ai des origines italiennes (dans le Piémont aussi, vers Alessandria). Mes parents y passent leur retraite. Moi aussi, un jour, je partirais en Italie, et un compromis entre les montagnes et la mer, pourquoi pas. Tu me donnes des idées, un peu dans tous les domaines. Je te souhaite d'ouvrir dans les temps tes logements, et quand ce sera fait, je passerai te voir.
Salut. Ça fait plaisir à entendre. Regarder de façon excessive ? Waouh. Merci pour votre beau commentaire. Vous êtes donc à moitié italien. J'espère ouvrir fin juillet. Ce sera quelque chose de nouveau pour moi, mais j’attends cela avec impatience. J'espère que nous nous rencontrerons ici. Bien entendu, le Piémont a longtemps fait partie de la Savoie. J'habite donc plutôt dans le Sud. Sous Cortemilia. Presque à la frontière avec la Ligurie. La Ligurie est également très belle, mais en réalité uniquement sur la côte. Il existe également quelques villes et villages à l'intérieur des terres. Cette section est l'Alta Langha. Moins de raisins, plus de forêts et plus de production de noisettes. Plus silencieux aussi. De nombreuses personnes regardent autour de Nizza Monferato. Au large des côtes, cela dépend de l'endroit où l'on habite. Il y a quelques routes provinciales vers la côte, mais si vous êtes à deux vallées, cela peut facilement prendre 2 heures ou plus de route jusqu'à la côte. De toute façon. Peut-être que nous pourrons faire connaissance cette année. J'annoncerai certainement si et quand j'ouvrirai ! Salutation.
@@borgopoggiodeifiori I can't find the location on google earth, could you narrow it down a little more?🙂Great to hear you will open soon, though don't push yourself too hard. If not July there is always august september etc. Your "unexpected week" vlog is doing well in the views!
Hi Marianne. Yes it is a bit hard to find on the map. I need to give it a name so it will be easier to find. All these hills and many small roads also make it hard to find something.
Aprilletje zoet geeft nog wel is een witte hoed. In deze maand moet je de mindset even aanpassen aan het weer. Tis niet anders. Daarentegen kan je weer andere dingen doen die je anders gepland had. Ondanks het weer heb buiten nog best veel kunnen doen. Maar zo het ernaar uitziet worden de komende weken goede weken, want de materialen gaan toch binnen komen? Veel succes weer toegewenst Bart👍👍👍
April doet wat ie wil. Nou het lijkt wel winter hier Reinier. Toch effe lekker door kunnen werken buiten maar nu is het de laatste dagen toch weer vooral nat en koud. Terug naar het tegelwerk. Dat is natuurlijk ook wel leuk. Er is nog zoveel te doen. Keuze genoeg en gewoon met het weer meebewegen! Keukens eind mei. Dus vloeren moeten er dan in zitten.
Another great week, so much done but nice to see you relax too! You must be pleased to see a lot of the stonework done. I am glad to see you focusing on the pool area as it is something that you can really enjoy yourself shortly. Your garden is amazing with so many beautiful plants. The electrical work is so well thought out....well done!! All....looking great!! Have a wonderful week!
Thanks Jane. Yeah it's good that it's done. Almost there concerning the pavements. Still 2 pieces around the house and a small piece going up the stairs to the pool terrace. With this weather ... I couldn't have asked for anything better. Plants and trees seem very happy. A bit of sun now and they will grow really fast!
It doesn't matter that you you didn't get to tile a bathroom as you first envisaged this week Bart - because you have achieved so much (as always) anyway. A pleasure to watch it all come together, be lovely to see that pool full. Jo 😊
Hi Jo. Tell me about it. I thought I would be able to inaugurate the pool right around this time, but with this weather the truck with the liner can't come up. To muddy. So probably more towards the middle of May. Glad I did the rest of the work around the pool. Next the railings. Got some friends coming over. Thought it to be a nice job for them ...painting the railings :)
@@borgopoggiodeifiori Nothing like the synergistic effect of friends helping out....and the companionship. Be nice if you could all eat on one of your terraces at the end of the day. Happy Days!! Have fun!! 😊😊😊
Dirge/requiem for a welding session..Lol Tiling setting grouting UP AND DOWN...oh my.!! Safety rails , lites handrails etc..looking good Got your elec meter , ..resited and better installed.. Ok....
The gardens are looking great Bart. Bit by bit, week by week things are really starting to come together. Hey loving the swanky new electrical cabinet too, it looks cool. Not quite the week that you planned but lots done nonetheless. Keep up the good work. Wishing you a safe and productive week ahead mate😁👍🏻
Hi Burrough. Yeah it's quit cool that electrical cabinet. Lots of space left for the future. In tke end lots of conduit went into the place but having everything seperated the way it is, is really nice. Tiling now. And looking forward to some sun. It's been really cold. Using my last bag of pellets for the stove so that weather better turn around soon :))
No not really William. I might just leave some gravel there for now. A future project. Some plants and pots. Seating areas and it will be alright for now. The trees are all doing really well.
The pathways with the woodchips look nice and neat! Good to see the pavement around the pool more or less done, work on the railings in progress. What thickness, are the steelwork pergolas at the poolside made of? I might try to replicate this at my home on a smaller scale. Love the garden shots, thank for that. Also really impressed with the electric panel (both the central and appartment ones), labelled and everything, another thing I urgently need to replicate at home😉! No beach day unfortunately this week, who knows maybe next. Looking forward to your (for now) secret project. I hope you will install and connect the washing machine soon save you some work. See you next week.
Oh the washing machine. How I need that one. Postponing washing of work trousers. For the iron work, much depends on the area you need to cover. Up to 3 meters you can do with 3x2. The ones at the poolside are H-beams. 8x5 if I remember right. Much stronger and suitable to cover larger spans. And I missed that beach opportunity two weeks ago. Now it looks like I need to wait at least another 10 days or so. The weather forecast isn't looking rosy to me ;-(
@@borgopoggiodeifiori Yes I am referring to the pink ones, I will go out and buy them. A kiwi is also a great idea. I have to pass on the honeysuckle my significant other is not a fan of the smell. Today is a very sunny day in The Netherlands, finally! Have a great day.
I think I heard you say you are going to put grass next to one side of pool. No matter how you cut it, you will get debris in the pool. Have you considered using artificial turf. The quality of it now looks really awesome. Since the area is small I don't think anyone would condemn you for going non-organic. The time saved cleaning the pool would justify the use. Cost should be acceptable! Fantastic progress!!
Hi Pat. I hear you. TRhat has been a concern for me too. I actually thought to put clover. But that needs to be cut too. Maybe it isn't that bad an idea to put something artificial. For sure ti will be much easier and cleaner to maintain! Thanks for the tip! Greetz
Het is langzaam aan steeds minder een bouwplaats en steeds meer een villa in het groen op een heuvel, dat doe je niet verkeerd… nu ff die tegeltjes op de muren pleuren en de inrichting van de appartementen doen, je bent er bijna… succes komende week!
Plant something pretty like Erigeron (lovey little flowers) where the pool stone paving ends and meets the wood poles beneath to soften it up.
Hi Janette. Haven't thought about those really. Actually a good idea too. Getting more suggestions. I think I need to be able to find them. Would be lovely and carefree.

I have two words for you Bart, Yeah Mon! You pack four weeks of content into one. It’s looking great!
