If you're new to my channel and videos, hi! I'm Evan Edinger, and I make travel vlogs of all the exciting places I visit. I started travel vlogging about 8 years ago because I wanted to see more of the world and be able to watch back some of my adventures. I also make weekly comedy videos every Sunday on my main channel usually revolving around funny differences between British vs American things! Anyway, thanks for stopping by!

evan being proud for getting better at fixing things is the positivity I needed this week
Éadaoin and John, didn't expect to see them here!
John from the TRY Channel 💕
Hab das echt nicht kommen gesehen! Hoffe ihr hattet Spaß auf dem Roadtrip :)
The bathrooms are gorgeous. Love using your own photography hanging up because they're so nice. I think adding the tiles to your bathroom would make it more cohesive but it's not necessary
That navy bathroom is chefs kiss
"how else do you want me to open it? Fiiiiire?" 🤣
The difference in your DIY confidence levels is really amazing. From your first step into DIY you have come a long way. In a relatively short time period you have become fearless. Proost from the Netherlands!
Evan your house is stunning! you did an amazing job with it :') hope I'll be able to make a home for myself like this one some day
Love what you did with bathroom. I once painted all the walls of an windowless bathroom black. In my current bathroom that does have a window, I have a corner painted black and went for a monochrome leaf print wallpaper on the biggest expanse of wall.
Love the background appearances of Seamus Gorman
Yes! Do the tile! It was beautiful in the other bathroom!
I really like the tiles, I think they go better with the rest of decor, the original grey ones are drab.
In regards to the putting things down and losing them and spending 20 minutes looking for them. You are not the only one. Everyone I have ever spoken to that has ADHD (including myself) does this
The flat looks absolutely fantastic! Being a DIY hater, I shudder at the thought of the work, but you have really achieved something here. Is that why your‘re called a „creative“? 😉
I will file documents in what I think of at the time as the only logical place for them to be filed. Six months later, I go to get something - and it’s not there! After tearing apart the flat to find it, I usually do, and I think: “Why on earth did I put that here? Makes no sense whatsoever!”
My parents went to get their electric knife - and it wasn’t where it belonged. Over the next two years (yes, years), they periodically looked for it everywhere, including in their RV and back in its usual place, thinking it really must be here. Nope! Then one day, they went to get something else - and there was the knife, right where it was supposed to be the entire time. I have a theory about this. Objects have the ability to shift into a different dimension where we can no longer see them, but the energy required to do this is limited, so at some point they always reappear. But there will be a time when they are invisible
Mr Sharpson! Good to see you John !!
hey hi, purely here from the thumbnail... JOHN SHARPSON WTF ARE YOU DOING HERE? nah worlds collide ahh wtf. also hiii everyone, evan your editting style really gets to shine in these vlogs vs the main channel, love the change of speed!
I put stuff down and can't find it again, ALL. THE. TIME. 🤪 I worry about my brain too☹️
It makes me feel so proud of myself when I fix something 😂
You've done an awesome job!! Looks great!
two bathrooms! That's so American I have to say...😉 - houseplants tip - get some stone planters/plant pots.. they may be more expensive - but much less likely to blow over in the wind...as they're super heavy....
also your prints might get damaged from the steam in the bathroom...not quite sure how you counteract that.. even using an extractor fan won't necessarily solve the problem... but I guess as it's a new build the builders have hopefully thought of that... mould can be a real issue in bathrooms with no windows/decent ventilation
OMG Evan! Another CZcamsr Seamus Gorman was in your group to the NASA station. He’s in the background around 9:02 & 9:59. That’s so cool! Two CZcamsrs I watch in the same video together
Excellent vlog, you should totally use the floor tiles in the guest bathroom for your own bathroom 😀
you are wonderfully eccentric.your home is fabulous i love it.peace and love 💖
The place is coming a long nicely. I am happy for you and hope you are enjoying flat ownership.
LOVING that Irish chap! 🙏🏼❤️
On the topic of losing things on a regular basis, I spent over an hour looking for my glasses the other day. I had not put them down somewhere odd, I'd pushed them off my bed in my sleep, only they didn't make it to the floor. Only I couldn't remember where I'd put them the night before... the more often I use a thing the more likely I am to lose it
Because of this video I finally got the energy to unpack my luggage from the vacation I got home from 3 weeks ago. Thank you Evan :)
Love the board and batten in the bathrooms. It looks so rich. In addition to your channels I very much enjoy the folks over at the Try channel, nice to see Mr. John Sharpton in your video.
Neat!!! Great stuff and funny!!
Custom tiles for both bathrooms, definitely! Also, new career as an interior designer...? 🤔I'd let you go nuts with my flat 😀
i like the bathroom tiles. really give a pop compared to the base ones.
I really enjoyed your video and comment
Oh dear, that "a Place for Everything" has an Amazon shop as well! This is going to cost me a fortune!
After we moved into our house we upgraded the closets using ClosetMaid kits, which has similar style to the ones you got from A Place for Everything. It really makes a huge functional difference, I even removed the closet doors/tracks.
I'm considering moving cities right now (aka, I love my current city, but as soon as I get a job in a place that has a subway I'm gone) and if my future place will only be half as pretty as yours is Evan, I will be a very happy human.
Finish the job. So. Funny
Hey Evan love the home vlogs! I’ve noticed a lot of the things you’ve said align with what I was struggling with when I was diagnosed with ADD. Ever thought of enquiring about that?
Beautiful job and great space. Love the big balcony.
Brilliant result Evan. Brilliant. I am loving the tiles!
I so enjoy your content. Your home is looking so excellent! It's comfortable and calming and stylish. Thank you for sharing.
Way to go. Wish I had the design sense you have and the patience to do all the work!
20:21 I personally like the normal tiles, I would vote in favour of leaving them as is
I actually think the grey tiles look great as they are. I am wondering what that says about me. Keep floors simple I guess.
The grey doesn't really go with the rest of the space.
I absolutely adore your decor choices. All except the floor tiles! Everything else seems classy and elegant and then those floor tiles are a bit loud and obnoxious, IMHO;. But you do you, Evan. You've got great taste and everything looks wonderful!
I really like the tiles as they brighten up the room and add a lot of extra contrast
omg you were in Leicester and at the space centre which is like 30 mins tops away from where I live and I had no idea
Your bathrooms look amazing. Well done!
it's been so fun following along
It al looks beautiful
love this style of video!
I found my car keys in the fridge, so you are doing well.
Your whole place looks amazing
Nicely done. I think the bathrooms look great.
Loving all of these house videos! Crazy thought: dark cocooning ceilings in dem bathrooms?
💖
I find things for everyone else all the time. It's like my superpower. My sister lives across the country outside Seattle and she calls or texts me regularly "help i need to find my X"
So hmu next time you need to find something Evan
We weren't allowed to paint for year after we moved into a new build. We've hit that year point and honestly I don't have the money to pay someone to do it. Nor am I sure on the colours we chose any more. I'm a wheelchair user it's not like i can just get up and paint. Trust me I tried that in the old place, sat on the floor and spent a day trying to take the paper off the wall so we could paint it. I learnt fast it wasn't gonna happen.
Professional painters are so incredibly expensive (because they are incredibly good at a highly skilled task!) plus the feeling of doing it yourself is very nice. Picking colours is really difficult tho!
Yes Evan I have the same problem, but I’m in my 70’s🧐❤️💕
Love this!! Where are the mirrors from in your bedside tables?
What's the watch you're wearing? It looks very stylish!
Seriously what is the name of that paint in the bathroom, I love that dark blue
I had no idea tiles like that existed! Are they completely safe for bathroom use? I’d be a little concerned about moisture getting between the tiles.
Wow it's looking great Evan! What's the name of the blue colour in the bathroom? I absolutely love it
Mysterious
hey did u tile ur bathroom?
I lose things at least 3 times a day... if I never leave my bed, more often if I actually move around. I can never find my coffee cup.
Guess who is now on the wait list for ADHD diagnosis....
is it me
@@EvanEdingerTravel might be
I have never been diagnosed, and I don't know why I am so scared to put a label to it/be professionally questioned, but I think it is a "shame" thing that my family (and husband) has attached to being diagnosed with any kind of mental problem or diagnosis, saying that it becomes a crutch and will then be used as an excuse. : /
Evan Evan please could you answer my question about your lovely blinds. 😢😢. Your flat is really quite large for London and now it looks really high end.
wat
Use fake plant for your bathroom. It has the same effect on mental health as real plant and it’s nice looking too !
Oo
FYI, the setting things down and completely forgetting where you put them is potentially an ADHD symptom! ADHD can have a huge impact on short term memory. I just got diagnosed myself, and my life makes so much more sense now!
When are you getting your hernia surgery? It can be done laparoscopically.
Losing things or misplacing them around the house is super annoying and then having your brain skip over them mentally when actually looking for them.... (like you and your screwdrivers), or putting them in places where they are obviously not meant to go... (like my cell in the fridge.... or being so in your head that you put face wash on your toothbrush..... 1000% would not recommend that, it is disgusting and kind of tingly on your tongue)
Grey tiles look boring compared to the other ones, but the walls are super nice in both!
Also whats with the WhatsApp person spamming under half the comments with your profile picture? Very fishy!
What's with the scandalous overalls?
