You two make such a great couple and this was so intriguing!! I didn't even know it was possible to live like that in this day and age but it has definitely opened my eyes! Looks like a lot of fun
Thank you!! I’m so happy to be sharing this way of living for exactly this reason ☺️
I think living in community is good as long as it's with people you trust completely. I lOved living with my friends it was awesome through almost all my 20s. The only thing when i was a kid my parents kind of let just anyone in our home to live for a while or visit and some of those people weren't good people and i went through some tough times because of that. Not saying you guys would let people you don't trust in your home and my situation was different of course. I think it's really cool how kind and open you guys are and the people you live with seem so genuine and cool.
SO interesting, absolutely loved this. Would love another video about being a couple and living in community - has it changed your relationship? has it created challenges? Do you live with other couples/people in relationships? Super interesting and enlightening!
Honestly never even thought of doing this before but it’s something that I would love to do one day. Living with people who I connect with would be amazing. Love that you are taking about this Raya!
Lovve seeing how personalities connect to the design of their home. Look forward to that video!
ive lived in community a couple times too. it is such a beautiful experience. and you are so right about different types of people making it so much fun, and how much faster you grow and learn with a dozen other ppl around to catalyze things.
Interesting perspectives! They do say having a good community is positive for health happiness and longevity 💛
Honestly, I feel this is what I need right now. I've never felt brave enough to do something like this before and I hope the future brings me something even slightly similar to what you have over there! So happy for all of you
Am from kenya I just discovered this channel,I love how informative it is.Its surprising seeing this .. people genuinely happy for eachother
I love your way of thinking, both, it’s always a pleasure listening to you
love it when you share about life in a community ! :)
This is inspiring me for such a long time and finally I have the perfect people around me to make this dream come true. Thank you for taking us with you ❤️
Yasss! I love this & have thrived when I have lived in community before. I look forward to living in community in the near future, it feeds my soul💚 also I feel lucky that I spent years growing up living with my mom & her 3 sisters so in a sense I had 4 moms & having all that love was very special🌟 Thank You for sharing this video!✨
I love this video I feel like honestly I need my own space which is why I love the idea of the whole treehouse community because you get to have your own little space but still get to be a part of something much bigger at the same time
Glowing as always 💕
raya you have such a lovely voice and beautiful laugh❤❤ you are full of wisdom and compassion and your roommates are so lucky to have someone like you in their lives😊😊
I pay $320 for a full modern house with a Seaview in a vegan yoga community on a tropical island in Thailand. I share it with my girlfriend, so I really only pay $160. Best beaches! Best food!
Where is this ? :)
I never considered living in community before discovering your channel but now I'm so inspired by it
I have always had friends and families as the foundation in my life so looking back it seems like such a natural progression
I hope I can find a great community like yours one day!
Ahhh this makes me SO happy to hear! This is what I hope to do with these videos ☺️❤️
This was so inspiring, I love it!! Thank you Raya. Your positive energy and vibes can be felt through the screen! I hope to live in a similar situation sometime soon.
Aw thank you Amelia! 💕
❤️

Your community household is literally the size of my family 🤣👌 cheaper by the dozen😉
I think you're making an amazing choice ❤️ celebrating life 🌱✨
Waw. So interesting. Its through (healthy) conflicts we all learn and evolve. Also that house really looks amazing. 💡💚😍
This is amazing. So much positive energy after watching this video. Made my day :)
Aw I’m so glad! ❤️
Thank you so so much for this video, Raya! I didn't even know that this existed! It's beautiful. How do you build this? Do you, each time, find a house and then find people to join? I would love to create something like this where I live. ♡
We've been interested in community style living for a while so it's been interesting hearing your perspective on it. I was wondering how the situation would be like for introverts, but it seems like it would be pretty good.
And kids love life, the more we are the more life there is ! I like that point
It would be interesting to hear how a person of Colour (POC) feels living with an all white household.
I have a lot of respect for you and everyone living in the house.
Thank you for letting us into your lives! #TEAMCOLE
ahh I just saw this! haha so cute!
@@RayaWasHere Much Love! #LiveTheAdventure
Super interesting video, thank you! ❤️
Wow this video really makes me overthink my values...
Thank you so much ❤️
This was so interesting
LOVED this video xx
I find this so so fascinating. Although I work in wildlife conservation and that often means being thrust into living situations with lots of people, I never considered it being an option long-term! It was also interesting to see how you can have alone time but also always have people there to hang out with.
It really is the best balance! I love having my own space and always find I have enough time alone if I want it ☺️
That was a great video (I rarely watch the whole video for 30 min), thank you. I have a few more questions, haha. Are you the only couple in this house? How do you schedule your day/week in order to have enough time for yourself (workwise and freetime), enough play time with Louis and time for everybody else? Thank you and come back to Slovenia soon!
It seems having your own bathroom would have a positive impact. Would you feel the same if you had to share a bathroom with others? I'm sure you would still live in community but would it temper you're enthusiasm a bit?
We actually shared a bathroom with a few other people in the last house and still loved living in community! Obviously it’s nicer to have our own (especially since the last bathroom was shared with 3 other guys 🙃) but either way the compromise is well worth it!
So interesting! It kind of reminded me of hostel living, whenever I stayed in hostels it felt like everyone came together, it was so easy to make friends. Of course not nearly as private! You mentioned being vegan was one of the conditions for finding roommates. Were there any other requirements that potential roommates had to have? Also are you guys the only couple?
Great raya 😍😅
I’m the exact opposite. But I really really enjoyed this video and your unique perspective of it all. I am an introvert and prefer my space. How ever I do think it’s important to have a great support system of close friends and family. I think my ideal situation would be would be to live in a neighborhood within walking distance of my friend but have my own house to create space for me and my family when needed. I have 4 kids, I like the idea of raising kids in a community
Also my jaw dropped when you said how much you and Lui are paying for your one room. That’s nearly the same amount me and my fiancé pay in total in bills for our 4 bedroom 2 bathroom house on 2 acres of land with a huge garage/ workshop that we OWN! 🤯
This was so great! I USED to live communally and I feel I made the decision to go back to living with a partner and watching this I realise this is so healthy and to live with other vegans well so fantastic. Do you know of different demographics like 40/50+ in UK? I have lost my way somewhat 😢 much love and brightest blessings. I’m obviously 2 years after this vlog and baby Neo is here 🎉yay 🙌👏🏻💐🌱💚XOXO🇬🇧
I had to stop the video...I love Blu!. "I love living in a fruit salad with you, too" :) Everyone needs a blu in their home!
Is there a specific reason for not wanting animal products on property? I mean I understand wanting to be vegan as a personal choice but having it as a strict criteria seems odd. Genuinely curious.
The whole living situation looks a lot more enticing than I thought it would be. You guys all seem to fit pretty well with each other while still having your independence. Definitely something I’d consider in the future. Thanks for making this!
Yes I was wondering this as well. I have a very rare condition that means that I cannot eat or digest most plant-based foods. (For those who are curious, I can only eat super processed things like white flour or sugar. Absolutely no fruits, vegetables, nuts, or seeds. And yes, I have a whole team of dieticians. Don't worry.) If I were to come visit you all, I could only eat something like plain white bread with some agave or something. Does this ban on animal products extend past food? Are guests allowed to enter the house if they are wearing leather shoes? Is this like a food safety thing? No spoiled chicken in the fridge? Is this like a morality agreement with the house? I'm also genuinely curious why this rule is in place?
Everyone has fabulous teeth!
How do you manage the “community fund”? Do you use splitwise? That would be the only way I could picture managing it, unless there was 1 person who’s responsible for buying all the community stuff and everyone pays them a set amount each month ... either way it seems complicated lol.
Wow,Great 💙 Video
I can’t help but feel you guys are like our Hogwarts’ prefects from Harry Potter.
Would you ever consider making a video on what your thoughts are on how America is dealing with covid? Coming from Australia I honestly cant believe the way the president has dealt with the pandemic...
Lmao, neither can most Americans. It’s terrifying.
Pleaseeee do more fashion videos!!
This is so Lala land....I can't imagine this in Detroit or Philadelphia.
💗💗
Where is the barbecue for the hamburgers !?! XD
María Bonita Studio sound so boring , a little bit fascist , things from dictators
I wish I could live like you 😭
I use the term house mate here room mate means you all sleep in the same room...
I think it’s like that in the UK. Roommate is used for people living in the same house in the U.S.
Really cool! This is out of nowhere, but I feel like you would be a good match maker. But I don't know if you like doing that. But hi I'm Jenna and I'm single 💟😊
2900€ per month for ONE big room???? WOAH!
To be fair, they may be splitting the price of the room cause couple. Factoring in the shared expenses, its about the price of the small rooms per person. Not a bad deal tbh. In NYC that would get a room in a 3/4 br without any of the other cool stuff.
It’s also on the ocean so that adds to what the property owner asks for.
And all that community stuff? Pretty decent deal for the area I guess
Your rent is 3 times my salary.
Is he actually that tall? Hahaha
Haha yeah, he’s 6’5’’!
