Hi welcome to Sweden I´am not trying to scare you but it´is better to be prepared. Just some useful tips the winters are usually long cold, dark & don't rely on electric heating or electricity every day. So chop as much firewood as possible, fill your pantry, by lots of candels & if you don´t have a wood fierd stove to cook on look for some alternative. Get the best winter tires for your car keep some extra gasoline for the car at home & in the car. Have some warm blankets, snacks in your car, a small snow shovel & a car charger for the cell phone.
"the winters are usually long cold, dark" Ha-ha. Indeeed IMO the worst is how dark they are. I have lived in Arvidsjaur a couple of years and my mother was born there. Even danced at that hotel in Arvidsjaur where this lovely couple stayed a while in the video. I used to say to my mother that the daylight in the darkest period of the year was so short that You did not notice it until it started getting dark again. It was more like a glimpse of daylight too short to be described as a period of daylight (ok, I AM exaggerating a bit) However I firmly believe that for Your health You should avoid living there in the darkest and coldest period, say 3-4 months, November/December until March. Starting March it becomes sunny and lovely with great skiing for a couple of months and then the summer is incredible of course !
"So chop as much firewood as possible," This is a great tip I think. If You have the time You may be able to pick all that firewood FREE thus avoiding almost all costs for heating your house :-)
@@SnikB If it's a mistake, it's only a £4250 mistake each. The cost of a good holiday........
@@SnikB And they will get their money back if they sell up.
@@SnikB I agree with you on the overheads cost & the low price......They haven't mentioned cost so far, but I have only just started watching. I like what they are doing with their life. Good stuff.
@@SnikB Their home seems to be less then an hour's ride from Arvidsjaur, where they have all those things and services available.
I think their real problem will be abstinence from urban life and it's magic....things will likely become too calm and peaceful by time ....?
Beautifully said young lady. Why wait 25 years. Live your best lives and take it from a 63 yr old disabled woman who worked 25 yr and im now alone. Loved the story so much.
Not alone. You have your internet family. Pretty sure you can reach out to any of us, me included! (I'm 61 and enduring pandemic on my own also.)
It really is a beautiful story!
Unfortunately not all have Money to do that at all. I’m a 62 year old Widow and this wasn’t even an option in the 1970’s . That’s why I look and Love what people have and are enjoying
I love that house. The longer I live the more I realize that it's the simple things in life that truly matter. Not expensive cars, a big house, and huge bank account. Congratulations.
It really is the simple things that matter! I am obsessed with watching and listening to older people give. life lessons and I picked this one up from a younger age than most. I am so glad to take time and appreciate the little things that matter ❤️
happy to see an american realized it
How true
You guys are actually disturbing my life. I just wanted to watch a video about opening a business bank account for Amazon then the first video I watched was yours, laughed a lot, enjoyed myself, liked and subscribed and now I'm just going down this endless rabbit hole watching your videos, one after the other. Thanks guys, I'm now suffering from Naomi and jack addiction. I am so excited for you, this is amazing, CONGRATULATIONS guys.
You won’t need a gym. Shoveling snow, cutting wood, cutting grass, trimming trees, gardening the list goes on... you will have enough work (gym) to fill your day 😉👍
Trust me im in scotland and have enough gym outside, im bigger, broader, stronger, happier and sleep better
Precisely 😉
Amen! My thought exactly, I don't think they know what they are getting into. The "one year limit" is probably good
That's why I don't have a snow blower. Shoveling snow is my winter exercise!
Lot of other things to do the rest of the year.
So true.
I am from Sweden, moved to USA. That looks like the area I came from. I remember summers at my grandparents cabin. I could stay out a whole day fishing. No amount of money can buy that happiness. Thank you for this trip down memory lane. Enjoy and love life. And all the small things in between.
After everything we have just endured in America over the past few weeks, a home in Swedish Lapland would be heaven on earth. I wish you all peace, love, and happiness.
Omg...I am so jealous. Let me say this...never say no to quickly. Many years ago 2 Swedish doctors visited my little island where I was born in the Caribbean and they were very eager and sincere that we should visit them in Sweden. They wrote to us and again invited us my mom and I. My mom was always so cautious and not very sure so she turned them down. Now that I'm grown up and travelled a bit, I truly wish she had accepted their offer. Maybe I'll still be able to see what I missed. ....enjoy your home and life. Don't be scared of life, it's an ongoing adventure.
for £8k it's amazing. Land with lakes, forests, nature. Would get a boat to go fishing. Been telling my family to do this for months.... Just get away from busy city. And at last live a dream. Congratulations would love to take a step myself
So wise! I'm 52 now, but have always riled against the rat race. I travelled when I was in my early 20s and went to university after that! Since then, I've worked at a career for 15 years before selling up, paying mortgage off, moving to the coast and buying mortgage free in my mid 40s. I now work part time (25 hours a week with every third week off). Life is lovely when you don't need to worry about a mortgage!
I'm 52 yo as well. I chose a different path then you, but it sounds like you have done quite well for yourself. So shout out to those of born in 68'!!
I too am a 68 baby
what did you do for a career and now?
@@markshoenus2591 , USA is the best country to be what you want to be.
Exactly!
Jesus Christ this almost brought me to tears!! Everything in it rings true with me.
I live amongst the vineyards of the beautiful valley in Germany now and am establishing myself as a freelancer. My house cost me less than a beach hut in Hunstanton. I spent years living overseas working for big corporates but I was perpetually sick of the corporate bulls**t, so I just threw caution to the wind and followed my dreams. I am waiting to move to New England as my partner had to move back there following the economic crash in Lebanon where he was working. The USA is not my ideal place to live, but we plan on buying an RV and hitting the road for a couple of years. I look at the lives of my friends and family back home and think to myself I am so glad I have my lifestyle. As I once read somewhere, live a piece of your retirement each day - don’t wait until you are too old to enjoy the fruits of your labour, or dead..
Good luck guys. You are a cute couple with the right outlook on life.
Good luck to you and your family. Stay safe and healthy and blessed 🙏🏾❤
All the best..
Some tips from a fellow swede, it has been mentioned before; Start chopping as much of that wood as possible. And I mean chop to pieces which are not more than two inches thick and lay them where they are protected from rain and snow (under roof) and off from the ground. A good idea is to buy a hygrometer for your firewood. It should not be more or less than 18 % moisture to burn ideally. Plus anything above that will develop a posionous fume that clogs your chimney. Also buy flashlights and batteries for those and tire chains. Extra gasoline is also great, and make sure you don't store it too long since old gasoline burns bad in the engine. Make sure to buy a outdoor stove or if you have some woodfired stove inside where you can cook if you have a power puttage. If you have those things you will get along fine. Welcome to Sweden, you have many pleasant moments ahead :)
If you have a 98 oktan gasoline it doesn't age, not as much enyway..
I always use 98 in My snowmobiles, both because it's more power but most because it doesn't age, when the snowmobiles get put away for the Summer it's almost mission impossible to get them running again if you have them fueled Up on 95, if I have 98 in them there is no problem 👍
Tire chains? I live close to them an I never used or seen anyone using chains? You should have good winter tires though.
Interesting. Not needed in Scania though :)
They also have a portable paraffin/oil heater in one of the garage that should also be able to heat a pan.
Tire chains might be nice to have, but if thy buy proper tires, like Nokian Hakkepelitta, they should only be there as a backup.
You're so kind. Stay safe and healthy
I'm a 58 year American wife and mom. I'm inspired by your fearlessness. Thank you for lighting the fire beneath me.
Bingo Jennifer!!!
"Why not choose paradise... Even if it's just for a year, even if it's just for 6, mos...". I felt that.
same here..
For that price, why not?
I didn’t understand that part, do they just own it for that time or forever?
@@iiAmChristopher I was confused always. Are they just there using it for a year or did they purchase it for 10,000 pounds outright?
Austin Christopher I understood they bought it outright & plan to be there for 1 yr...will be there longer if they love it or will sell & continue their journey elsewhere. I think they say 1 yr since they don’t know the complete specifics on living in the environment there. But it’s their’s unless they sell it & move
"God did it the only way that he could."
So beautiful. Fills me with incredible joy to see a young couple with the humility it requires to have faith in God in these times.
Most Swedes are atheists.
@@jonaswladimir6889 So sad.
@@dherman0001 . In fact we also don't have the death penalty or put people in prison for profit. And all have hospital payed by taxes. Social wellfare so you don't have to wait for handouts. Free schools. Over a year paid parental leave and an right to child care. Lots of benefits if you work hard as an nation and not beeing held back from any holy book. Visit some time and have a look. And most Swedes are quite nice even if they are atheists. Sad that you are held back by your religion.
You've just got a treasure for that money. Wish you to enjoy every moment. God bless!
Congratulations! We're English and we bought ours for £9,500. It's perfect. Light, spacious, warm and comfortable right from the outset. We added a log burner in case of power outages (minus 30C isn't funny!). As others have said, invest in a good snow blower and a snowmobile. Also a decent ride-on lawnmower (Biltema do a good one for reasonable money) because when the 24 hour daylight hits, the grass and other plants will ROCKET upwards! The only other thing to watch for as mentioned elsewhere, Mosquitoes and Midges. Get some protection and some screens. Otherwise, Lapland is one of the most wonderful places on earth. Midwinter is absolutely unreal. Good luck!
That's good! Any good website agents? Thanks :)
As someone from the north of Sweden, this is really wonderful. Hope this place and this house brings you lots of joy :D
@@Chopper8472 I beg your pardon?? You can’t be serious! How dare you claim to speak for all Swedish people living in the North? You're not, so shut up, you despicable racist. Really. YOU'RE the one who should leave the country.
Nope! You do not speak for all of us! If anything, polls have identified the people in the northern part of Sweden to be the least racist in the country.
@@elisabethbjuhr3775 What polls is that? I might not speak for all, but I speak for majority of Swedish people 95%!
J B At which point do you see “more crime coming” with this lovely couple moving into a house in Lapland?? I would absolutely love to have them in my neighbourhood! And so do 100% of the other comments. Sorry to break it to you, but you’re very alone with your opinion. Calm down. They're actually choosing to live there, and will honour and embrace our strong Swedish culture. Don’t be afraid, they’re not taking anything away from you.
J B And no, you don’t speak for the majority. Deal with it.
That means it was meant to be yours! Congratulations, it's beautiful.
Such a nice place in a quiet peaceful wood area with a lake nearby and a gorgeous girl by your side. You guys are lucky. Wish you both the most happy life! You deserve it.
Long life from Israel!
Aw thank you so much, we really are lucky and glad to be here ❤️
I admire you two for your sense of adventure!
Thank you! what is your dream adventure ?
Oh my God! Words are not enough to describe the love I feel for this village. I grew up in Glommersträsk and my heart beats for that village! Welcome! I'm sure you will love it as much as I do (and everyone else who set foot there)! Best wishes! / Erika
We love it here so far thanks Erika!!
You bought a gold mine
@@coleenrose5127 is property generally this cheap there?
@@thinkgood7412 it can be, depends a bit just where and in what condition. But, that cheap can be a little difficult to find and for it not to be falling down
Is it just for a year? They didn’t mention if it’s a year rental, but said even if it’s for a year? So, some of us are confused whether it’s a year only buy out? Maybe that’s why so cheap and all items still inside to make use of.
Hello guys, just came across this video. Congrats ! i now live in Finland after buying a cheap home here. I paid peanuts also for my home compared to what i would have paid in the UK. Good luck with the nordic life.
What did you pay and is there any good sites to watch for home in finland?
I predict you will discover that you will not want to leave anytime soon! Congratulations! Imagine a business that will work there in your local community. Enjoy the experience of learning together. Why just a year? My husband and I also bought a property and home with buildings 1 1/2 acres six years ago and now are living sustainably upon it. We grow our own food. It's takes tome to renovate, but we are enjoying it. I am so happy for you both!
Welcome to Norrland I have lived here my whole 70 year old life, wonderful landscape to live in.
Thank you Bengt we love it here so far, so peaceful and beautiful! Wishing you all the best
Where is This ? How Far North ?
He’s soooo sweet. He always says “I love you “!!!! While popping the bubbly champagne 🥂 🍾
He loves her so!!! ♥️♥️

I love watching your channel and seeing the growth of your relationship ❤ along with the growth of your channel! Thank you for sharing.
Love what she said "God did it the only way He could"!
Welcome to Sweden. Love to have you here. I hope you will be happy and be part of our country. Lots of hugs from me and the Tornado (my cat). PS. The story of the mexican actually made me cry.
The narration, the photage, the American Mexican story I love it. 91-100 audio quality. Perfect video. Keep going.
what a lovely story and a fine young couple, a fairy tale least to say,
loved how things magically came together for both of you
and this video is really one of my best ... congratulations
There was a moment he looked at her with such love in his eyes, so sweet! Congrats on your home!
I don't know why this was in my CZcams suggestions today but I am glad that it was...thanks for sharing your story with me, us, we...I am a new sub and I am here for all of the next steps that you share...
Sharing some love from Trinidad, you guys are living your best life now. What is for you will always be for you!!
amen amen amen! Thank you so much for your inspiring and grounding words 🤗
Awesome dream you guys went after and how incredibly motivating for other folks to see your story. Sweden looks amazing. All the best to you two trail blazers.
Like so many other people here, I’ve been enjoying watching Naomi and Jack’s videos of their adventures in Sweden. As a US citizen I worked with a summer work permit in Norway for two summers back in the late 80s. Ironically, my first casual job in Europe was in Gothenburg Sweden.
I’m amazed that Naomi & Jack bought a functional house for under SEK 100k. Sweet. I’ve managed to save over one third of my SEK 500k goal thus far. I’ve been working on my Swedish comprehension and speak descent Norwegian. I’m so fortunate to now have EU citizenship so I am allowed to work in Sweden. I never had a good work/life balance in the UK, US, Germany or even Austria. However, by owning my own place outright in Sweden, I hope to give my cat a wonderful life and live in peace and harmony with nature…
I thought the next thing after she said - "there is one thing I forgot to tell you about the house" was going to be - All previous owners have disappeared under mysterious circumstances
Oh gosh haha that is very ‘Nordic noir’ haha
🤣🤣
😂Wise words about the Mexican story. also both of your outlook, enjoy, “ you can only sleep in bed at a time, , eat one meal, at a time , drive a car one at a time! 👏👏😃✊🏻👊🏿.
🤣🤣🤣
Ha-ha... thruth is that Sweden's Laplandia may be the safest place in the world !
A warm welcome to Sweden. Enjoy the nature
Thank you Claus, we are loving the nature
Hey claus
omg I was so happy for you that I don’t even know how to explain, and this is the first video of you that I see hahaha. I don't know how to explain it but your happiness is contagious and the way you told your story really touched me. I already subscribed to the channel and I can't wait to see all the videos, I loved meeting you
Always when taking over houses like this, sort out the obvious garbage first but then get an antique dealer go through the inventory.
There could be incredible treasures in a place like this.
Might cover the cost of renovations.
Absolutly gorgeous place and such a great story totally agree ! Tip as a Swedish person - install daylight lamps and start taking 10 000 iu d3 + 200 micrograms k2 as well as omega 3 with 2 grams epa a day and keep doing it to keep on top of our fairly dramatic season changes... it will make it a lot easier to adjust -it’s a thing! Great place! So cool! The Big lamp like thing is a heater and a really good one ask at the local gazstation for the right fuel and how to work it ... bring it with you . Great to heat up the house quickly and use under a powershortage ( ps those lamps/ heaters are fairly expensive) you can also in a pinch cook on it.
I live in Seattle and this is really good advice to give newcomers !
Anna Rehbinder, you are so thoughtful and giving to offer this advice. This is vital information to know. May you and yours be well.
I am a bit ignorant when it comes to the vitamin/supplements so please excuse me for asking but what exactly are the IU d3, K2, omega, and epa for individually and as well as your personal reasons for suggesting it? I also thought it was very kind to suggest the things you did had a loving/caring/prepare your ass or else... feel to the comment so it made me even more intrigued to know that of my unknown LOL.
J. Arm. So basically when you live in Sweden especially northern Sweden the seasons affecting mood is a thing especially when you are not Swedish but if affects Swedish people as well. Vitamin d3 is basically to compensate for loss of sunlight and also is in itself an effective antideppressant, k2 is a substance used to get all of the vitamin d3 absorbed properly and also works to strengthen bones get the kalcium where it’s supposed to be in the bones ( you need it when you take 5000 iu D3 and above ( iu stands for international units and is the amount) Omega 3 is fish oil and in the olden days basically people in Sweden especially northern parts lived off fish -We are talking work contracts stipulating that one day a week you wouldn’t have to eat fish .... In order to absorb D3 properly omega 3 is needed. Can you skip that part yes but it will decrease the efficiency of the d3 and is in it self very valuble to handle seasonal changes and SAD ie seasonal affective disorder and most importantly prevent it. Today it’s really really hard to get enough omega 3 through diet. Epa is a substance which can be found in Omega 3 and is part of how you know how much omega 3 to take since it varies in strength. 2 grams EPA a day is how much is needed to handle seasonal affective disorder ie seasonal deppression to prevent it. Figured it was more cool to tell about this aspect of life rather than let them find out for themselves when everything get’s dark ... the dark is mandatory but SAD is not, and it can be really tough. On the plus side winter is really Beautiful and Swedes tend to get cosy and pretty much hibernate , if possible in front of a fire mixed in with some outdoors sports like skiing when possible.

So happy for you both!! Hope you’re enjoying life in Sweden!!!
to love and be loved is to feel the sun from both sides. Congrats!
Sounds exactly like my story here in Canada !!!!!! I work from home and was able to live anywhere.. We were in the rat race living in a big city paying a fortune in rent and bills, We saved for one year and saved $20 000. We then bought a older farm house on a nice lot of land for just under the amount we were able to save in the year. Mortgage free !!! And guess what ???? We also own a Volvo. LOL
Where did you buy? I'm in the GTA toilet bowl and everything is so extremely overpriced
Wherein Canada did you buy this please?
@@roxorz007 Northern New Brunswick, just south of Campbellton
@@AeriolNicols Northern New Brunswick. I was living in Montreal and realised we would never be able to buy a house there ( $$$$$$$ ) where I am in NB there are many people who have moved here from Montreal ,Toronto and even Vancouver.

Oh guys that's beautiful and the surroundings. Nature! It must be life-giving atmosphere
This is wonderful brought tears to my old eyes. Good luck both of you from the bottom of my heart.
Congratulations. Watching from South Africa. This is mind opening. Thank you
Congratulation! I hope you'll love the winter in lappland. Its beautifull but long and dark. Just about the winter and the lack of sunlight. Make absolutely sure that you get enough vitamin D both of you but especially Naomi as a young women with darker skin. Lappland is quite a lot farter north than UK so just in case you missed thinking about it. Check with a doctor about a preskription if you need to. Just be carefull if you're more tiered then usual during the dark months. I have seen a few of my students strugeling a lot becase we didn't think about it and before the cause was known to us, them and their familys.
Best of luck to you. The house looks lovely.
Thank you soo much, it means so much to me, I didn't think about vitamin D I will look into it ❤️
@@NaomiandJack Vitamin D is the difference between you getting depressed or not in a dark and cold place.
Welcome to sweden!
When renovating old houses use a good mask www.bauhaus.se/varumarken/sundstrom
You can get really sick from mousepoo,asbestos and other dust
Use a good vaccumcleaner too(industrial) +wetdrought the floors when done
You dont have to paint the whole interior white but the roofs for sure and install good LED lightning.
Be outside during the day when theres light. Dont get stuck in front of the computer/tv!
Chop wood to smaller pieces, very good to have when its dark and cold(nov-mars)
@@NaomiandJack How could you not? :/ Not to be rude but I mean I'm Irish and I find winter difficult and it gets dark at 3-4pm. You're going to be living in a place where you will get sunlight for a few hours max. And darker skin tones usually need more sun because very pale skins have adapted over evolution to produce less melanin so we can handle those winters. You will need a very large dose.
@@teamswix But don't vacuum mouse poo. Wipe it up with paper towel while wearing gloves. It can cause a great deal of sickness, and the dust from it isn't good in the vacuum.
Getting a plot of land, tool sheds, with so many tools included for that price, that’s pretty damn good! Sure, the house itself needs some touching up, but all those tools etc alone, was worth quite a bit. Nice find!
Yes exactly our thinking! We’ve used as much as we can that was already there to make things we needed, it’s been great!
First thing I noticed too, lots of free stuffs both in the house and the surrounding buildings which look to cost more than the house pricing.
Congrats!! You guys are in for the adventure of a lifetime together!! Just always remember why you got married and love each other when times get tough and tempers run thin! Been married for 22 years and trust me it works.
Thank you Chuck -and thanks for the advice. Hope you are well 😊
Aww just discovered your channel, did same as you did, left UK 4 months ago for a new life in Bulgaria, looking at houses to buy. Wanted a much peaceful and relaxed life and not the stress of the hustle and bustle of London really. And it was the best time with the pandemic to finally follow through on what i had been considering to do for a whole 3 years :)
OK this has really got me thinking, I love Sweden and really love the idea of having a smallholding. I really wish you guys all the best!
Congrats guys I am so happy for you; I even did a happy dance for you 'smiles'. Big love to you guys.
Thank you Nigel!!! We have done many a happy dance hehe
This is so incredibly AMAZING!!
Congrats
Thank you Amber!
Wow that's really good buy! I think there are so many people are looking to relocate not just from Uk to have a better life - but in general: by the lakes, by the forests, near the nature. Well done for having courage to do it! My husband and I been in this "idea" for the last year now and still didn't get anywhere so far :), eventualy these places will get busier and taken - so good timing for you guys! Very happy to see someone do well and go for those dreams! Greetings from England, Devon!
Love all the stuff that came with the house.
Congratulations !!! So happy for you two.
Thank you Angela! We hope you are well ☺️☺️
Buy a good snow thrower (snöslunga) because the winters here is unforgiving, and if you can - a snowmobile (snöskoter). Owning a snöskoter in northern Sweden is freeeeeedom!
Wish I lived in a country where I can own allot of horses and have a whole wide Forrest to ride them threw🥰while listening to Soundgarden or Audioslave on my EarPods and taking a break from now and then to have them rest and drink and eat then continue to ride them
Home. And be with the one I love make allot of babies and be wholesome and happy and healthy.
Ow I can’t image the fresh air over there
@@Chopper8472 are you ignorant or rude or what🤣😂Why even comment that .. I’m from The Netherlands. OMG YOU SOUND SO RACIST, if you are talking to the couple in the video.. than you are the fool... they are in love, color should not matter. Only how they treat you..and if you have a problem with her, how she would treat you. Black and white make good relationships as long that there is love and .. they make the best lovestories and later grown up adult people because their children have the best of not their parents outside beauty but inside caracters. They treat people fair and evenly, when they have both parents. But that goes for all people.. has nothing to do with skin
@@Chopper8472 Let me be clear. I am swedish and you do not represent me! Period! BTW, have you heard about commas and capital letters and stuff?
@@brallybear620 I do not represent you but I speak for 99% of the native Swedish population. Are you really trying to give me advice on my grammar when you used BTW, which isn't a word but a written abbreviation for 'by the way'.
@@Chopper8472 please read your comment out loud and see how it sounds. I believe the Swedish people are far better and more humane than what you give them credit for... and I live in The Netherlands I’m not concerned about far right extremist people because civil people are far more then the racist bigots 😉👍But what you’ve just said sounds like a treat to me.. why would she end up in a ditch? I’m sorry but you really sound racist even if you don’t mean it. Be aware of what you say and how it sounds if you wanna state your concern just tell her to watch out and not trust everybody with a blue eyes and a smile. But do so in private message or something. On this comment thread it sounds like a treat to me and many others. And that’s not oke, I’m sorry but it’s not. Why not be evenly concerned about Swedish people going to African to shoot an kill innocent lions for the hunt. Or white people who go for sex tourism to African countries to sleep with children... IM sorry but this can go on and on...and it has no point to it. Just let them be happy and in love. Love rules more than hate
Congratulations guys! Awesome find! Yall are so nuts! Love it! Have fun in your new house and stay safe. ❤
Great video. Best wishes with your new place in Sweden!
All I can say ,is WOW ,just WOW 🤩!!!
It’s fantastic. Can’t believe previous owners left all that stuff ,it’s like they left in a rush. Anyway, Mazel Tov 🍾🥂 here’s to Sweden 🇸🇪🎿🛷
Thank you Charlotte! Yes I know so much ‘treasure’ amongst the clutter ☺️ The previous owner died a few years ago and the brother decided to sell it after using it as an occasional holiday house for the past few years. He just kept a few sentimental items and left the rest, a much easier sale for him!
@@NaomiandJack With Airbnb we all have a holiday home in every country so no need to own a holiday home.
@@higreentj Nice to make something your own though. Especially if you like one particular country.
@@autumnkate280, I agree but in the brother's situation, he was right to sell it. Technology is changing everything and giving us more choices so we are not limited to hotel rooms when we travel. Because of automation, we will have to introduce a universal basic income which will give people the financial freedom to experience different countries. Neuralink might solve the language barrier but 90% of the Swedish population speak English. www.neuralink.com
SCREAMING CONGRATULATIONS!!!🎂🎊🎈🙌🏾 new home owners...🥂 to all the WONDERFUL possibilities to come. I can't wait to enjoy this journey of yours. PLEASE continue to let me tag along via CZcams...BLESSINGS...💜🙏🏾💜
WOOHOOO 🥳🥳🥳 Thank you Ann!! So glad to have you along for the journey with us, we can't wait to share more. Blessings to you also 💜💜💜
You guys INSPIRE me to take this LEAP of faith pending on my heart for some time now... PRAY for me???
That's amazing - we will of course 🙏🏿🙏🏼 We are grateful to God because your prayers have already been answered. Just remember to take action when he shows you what to do. We love you sis 💜
Old houses often have lots of old stuff, the remnants of a lifetime.
God has truly blessed you both. I'm not just talking about the tremendous score of your fixer home, but also the "Mexican Fisherman" realization and philosophy. Take it from someone much older than you, Life is short and gets shorter every day. Or, the late great John Lennon "Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans." I am so HAPPY FOR YOU.
But in this case the sea is frozen solid during winter, what will the fisherman do then?
Congratulations to you both on your new home....following your beautiful story
Thank you Carol! We are pleased to have you along for the journey with us ☺️☺️
Baby girl your parents wanted you and your husband out their house now you out their house and so far away from them what they must be in tears plus you own your house outright I am so proud of you and your husband I'm just laughing at the bits 🤣🤣🤣👏👏👏👍 congratulations🥰🥰
Amazing, I'm very happy for you guys. Best of luck.
Happy for you guys!.
Many congratulations. God Bless.
Congrats!! Your excitement was palpable. I could feel it through the video.
Thank you!!! We really were excited hehe
I love this video. I especially loved the story about the fisherman.
Awh we are so glad - the story is from The Four Hour Work Week 😊
It was a beautiful story. Sweet couple.
The fisherman sure knows how to avoid the slavery system in the modern society and that is in debts and consumerism
@@veegood6404 yes, they are so adorable!! i wish them and you lots of love and happiness!!!
Yes and the narrator voice over was phenomenal. That transcends us to the story. Truly amazing job!
Hi, I’ve just discovered your channel and I’m loving your vlogs.
I just kept smiling all the way through this video. Naomi and Jack, you are awesome and your new home is going to be fantastic.
To live life without having to say... I woulda done, coulda done or shoulda done, but to say I lived my Dream...that Is Priceless! Congratulations and God Bless!
Notice all the extra pipes in the shed. You might need to learn about your plumbing and what to do when a pipe freezes.
So happy for you guys. Good luck in your new home xxx
Thank you Miche! So glad that you can join us on our journey ☺️☺️
Wonderful and congrats lots of blessings on your new life and your new home all the way from South Africa xx

Thank you Evelyne! Blessings to you 💜

Congrats. Looking forward to more of your stories
Congratulation guys 🎉🎉🎉🎉!!! I'm watching you from France🇨🇵 and it's so great to see you grow together.
I can't wait to watch the next épisode 😊😊
Awh thank you Corine! Bonjour, tu vas bien? ☺️ We are looking forward to sharing the next episode with you!!
@@NaomiandJack oooh that little french 😍😍😍
Je vais bien merci, j'espère que vous aussi !
Congratulations!! Awesome achievement in such a relatively short space of time. Continue to enjoy the adventure of life with all it beautiful twists and turns, ups and some downs. The main things is to be who you absolutely are born to be... free, unhindered and full of zeal on this amazing journey called life!! I absolutely enjoy following all that you are prepared to show! Again congratulations to you both, I am so, so happy for you. Do all you can to remain in the good blessing that God is directing you.
Awh thank you Lenda that’s so kind of you. We are so glad you are joining on our journey with us. Hope you are well ☺️
Many congratulations guys. I am sure you will love it. I have been to Sweden before it is different to UK but you already know it but believe me in more than many ways much better!!! Enjoy your life and explore the Lapland. 👍👍👍
So happy for you guys. You deserve it!
Wow, that is beautiful. Congratulations. In American, one can't even buy a car for what you paid for this house. What an incredible deal. All it needs is some tender loving and care, some paint and a little fixing up, which is probably easy for you guys. Congrats!!!
There are similar cheap houses in usa too. Saw many on youtube. But they need fixup
Clarity with KJ, You are wrong, I have bought a house for $3800. in OK
@@ajrt_2118 Just go and don’t leave. Lol. Well, that’s what some do, i guess - they use the power of rhetoric to get their way no matter what.
But a more legitimate route is actually through property ownership. You can often get visas and residency much more easily when you buy property. Some places even offer a path to citizenship that way.
Beautiful blessing shared by you two.. Congratulations! I bought my home out right, here in the US and it feels good to be mortgage/rent free. Now I am debt free also(No CC's debt or student loans,etc).. That one decision open my life up to achieve all sorts of financial goals. Next goal is building major wealth because once you get rid of a mortgage and you have no debt, it's possible to just keep saving😇 Wishing you two all the best.😇.. Btw, I love this documentary format of your video.. Very well done. 😇
Thank you!! Congratulations to you that is an amazing feat, particularly in the US! It must feel so good. Yes that’s true, once your debt free that’s when the real savings start. Glad you enjoyed the format, we are enjoying making the vids!
I totally would love to be debt-free!!! May God give me the WISDOM to do so...
Congratulations! 🎉🍾😉
This is the first video of yours that I’ve seen and you two are great. This is an amazing place especially for the price. I’m watching it first thing in the morning and it’s an inspiring start to my day.
Congrats! This is so beautiful and so very inspiring.
SO YOUNG, YET SO MATURE👍🏾
I LOVE THE SINCERITY OF YOUR LOVE 💙
CONGRATS ON THE HOUSE DEAL, WHAT AN AMAZING FIND👍🏾
GOD BLESS YOU BOTH, IN ALL OF YOUR ENDEAVORS 🙏🏽😇🙏🏽
Awh thank you!!! God bless you too 🙏🙏
Awesome enjoy you’re new home and life together looks lovely
Congratulations guys. OMG, so proud of you two
Awh thank you Mardia!! We are so blessed to share our journey with you ☺️
