- Too much going on simultaneously , but a lot of change happened during the course of the past few weeks. With extra helping hands, the greenhouse projects is coming along nicely. We also renovated the roof of the small cabin.
Hi! We are Laura & Jonas, a Belgian couple living on the Estonian island Saaremaa. Here we are in the process of building up a resilient homestead from scratch.

Thank you so much for watching!
It fills me with so much joy and happiness to see your pace of life and how you connect with the place.
The round green house is fabulous!! Leopold and your neighbor's dog seem to not bother each other... What fun to have a friend come for a working visit!! How nice that Jonas' parents are so handy and willing to pitch right in :) !
So pleased that the little cabin is getting a new roof. How cute. Greenhouse shower...as usual beautifully utilising all space.. so clever.
Dreamy …great editing
I love your channel. Keep it up! From Texas
I enjoyed watching this new video as much as the other ones. You guys inspired me to follow a natural building workshop last weekend :) Nice to understand more of what you’re doing (and to see variations). Looking forward to seeing the goatees 😊
Very glad to hear that!
Very lovely place. I plant out after may 24, except onions go in the ground as soon as the ground can be worked.
가치있는 삶.. 좋네요.
What a valuable life !
I always enjoy your videos. The calm relaxed pace in both your filming and audio is wonderful ❤️😀❤️😀
I love your green house and how the whole place is set up and looks, so natural. Thank you
Ive been binge watching all your videos since I discovered your account about 5 days ago! Your process and journey has been enjoyable and I look forward to following along in the future. Watching you from Newfoundland, Canada. 47th-ish latitude.
I can't believe you're watching all of them! Thank you, very much appreciated!
What a magical place you are creating! I would, personally, love to live in a round house.❤
I do not want your videos to end! You are such an inspiration. It’s wonderful to have helping hands at times. The cabin’s new head is terrific with the added skylights. What a stunning place where you live.
Ahw, thank you very much :)
Beautiful, beautiful! Can‘t wait for another.
I agree
My grandma had the white sheets ready in spring - all the old ones would be quickly spread on her garden if she smelt frost in May :)
So glad to see your dachshund, I thought something had happened to her. Greenhouse is fabulous.
Yes she is the neighbors dog, but sometimes she pays us a visit. Last year that happened more often :)
Wonderful.very uplifting. I love Estonia
It's always difficult to be patient when the weather looks promising. This year this year there was frost in some parts of Germany even in June as I saw on the weather forecast. 🤔❄️ A shower in the greenhouse, what a great idea 👍
It's all looking very nice. Goats will make a nice addition, something we are also thinking about. Love that trellis, i need to redo ours too.
Yes, looking forward having them here, but we know at the same time these goats will provide us with plenty of challenges to tackle haha :) Perhaps next springtime we have some baby goats if you're interested ;)
❤❤❤
Hi from Russia! Thanks for the your video! Really cool buildings. In Russia there is such a thing as family estates, very similar 👍🏻
Epic :)
Should char the outside with a torch . Help a lot
It seems You are building a house in a day.🎉
Wait until
June to plant outside ;-)
You both are amazing so much work. Things are coming along quickly. What where you drinking it looks like a tea with berries. Recipe please if you have one.
It's waterkefir :) Just fermented with some lemon and sugar+ some grapes!
For long life and against eny insects for your wood beams, logs ...is beter if you treat them with fire gas torch before oiling them.
👍😎🇨🇦
Good progress! Can one build a wooden log wall with mud plaster with any kind of wood? Thanks
Se poate cu orice lemn, dar sa fie uscat minim un an fără coajă
@@alexandruene6069Ok, thanks for the info!
2 dagen geleden jullie channel ontdekt. Echt super gaaf! Ik voel véél inspiratie :D Mag ik vragen waarom je bij de plantenkas 2 dakdelen met hout hebt gemaakt? Is dat tegen te hete zomerzon of omdat daar juist geen zon op valt (al dacht ik in de video te zien van wel) ? Liefs uit Nederland :)
Goed om te horen!! Wel, dat deel is naar het Noorden gericht dus daar valt niet echt veel zon op inderdaad :)
Just curious. Did you strip the bark off the logs first before you used them in building the walls. Great job.
Yes we did, in wintertime!
You burn the bottom of a log so it will not rot when put in the ground? What is the name of the trees you build with? It is rude to ask, I know, but I wonder what language you speak to each other?
Yes! and we surround it with stones so no soil touches the wood. Mostly pine and fir is what we're using. And not rude haha, we speak dutch to each other! (Flemish, from the north of Belgium)
@@The.Land.of.Slow.Living Thank you, very much, madame! Your films are like a very pleasant interlude for me during a busy day
Hoi, leuke video's hoor! Hebben jullie een Nederlandse bouwtekening van de kweekkamer? Of een tip voor een praktische handleiding voor bouwen in een 8kantvorm. Ik zou er graag eentje bouwen. Het boek, 'building with strawbales, dat je in een andere video aanraad, heb ik al besteld. Bedankt alvast en petje af hoor!
Nice to see youre progress guys!! Eva 😍wil je met mij in een houten huisje wonen?! :)
You are very bold, sir! She already has a man...
@@bjohnston3659 and how would I know? See it as a compliment!!
I don’t believe late frost means you should wait to plant. Even if I’m left with 1/3 of what I planted in May, I’m still ahead.
Well, the unexpected frost from last night managed to wipe out all my outside tomatoes, beans and half of my pumpkins so I'm not sure about this sentiment :p
