I bought a piece of land in Italy 5 years ago. Exactly the same as you, no electricity, a bell tent and basically hardly anything here. If you stick at it, you’ll learn a million things you need to know through trial and error. I now have a cabin, wood mill, woodworking studio, shower room, loads of comfortable areas, vegetable garden and loads of animal pens. Each one made from the land, each one was daunting to make at the start. Just slow and steady and try and build to last first time. Wouldn’t trade this life for anything as hard as it can be. The first year is always the hardest.
You are going to be sharpening that chain alot so learn how to do it well and quickly. More short sharpenings is better than letting it get dull. I would say once a day. To bad you don't have any moving water to produce power from.
Thanks to Instagram I saw your videos thank you very much for uploading your journey it's really refreshing for me from now on I'll your permanent subscriber nd hope that in future I'll be there for saying nice to meet you on your Island ❤
Again realy interesting video. I like the Tent a lot. I would recommend to buy a semi professionel electronic chainsaw from Stihl or Husqvarna. Yeah theyre not cheap but especially for building the cabin it would be a good investment! Keep it up :)
Those tent stakes that come with the tent are absolute JUNK, invest in better, thicker ones - first decent wind storm your whole tent will blow away and be in the lake, also maybe tie a cpl ropes around the base of a nearby tree and thru some tent eye-holes in case she does come loose when youre away for the week back at home....
Love it, can't wait to see where it's going! Are you planning on planting anything on the island, like more berries, maybe some potatoes, onions and other root vegetables, or even fruit trees like apples?
Its amazing what you're doing. Imagine spending your most of the summer in a place like this 😳 I with there was a way to remove bugs in a certain area i don't like bugs 😅 also are you gonna bring all the wood from store or use some from the area as well?
Bc it’s CZcams… if you want the most views-have your lady speak in the videos. Doesn’t matter what she looks like 😂 trust me. The internet will like more content and keep watching if there’s a (pretty) girl in it ❤😂 pls take this seriously lol

I’m really enjoying your new channel,it’s a refreshing change from the usual off grid content. Please keep those videos coming!!!
You should buy a cheap portable gas stove (Clas Ohlson has a good one), gonna be much more efficient than making a fire everytime.
very cool im happy to see your journey in how you change this island
These videos have been really entertaining, love seeing progress.
Love your videos! Good luck on your jorney! Tip: build a tent or a wooden storage for your logs to dry
I just love the simplicity of this. Keep going!
really interesting to follow the journey from the beggining. everyhting looks beautiful, hope to see more videos soon!
It's great to follow this journey! Watching from Brazil 😀
One tip is to buy A Electric Motor for the boat it is gonna make transportation much easier
i love your editing style its super pleasant to watch
thank you!
beautiful little island, you could build a small wine pier for convenience

Thank you! Hopefully we can turn the island into something worth visiting.

Keep it up :)
Thanks! Ya I basically got the cheapest one I could find, might need an upgrade at some point.
I was looking for island off grid stuff
This is really cool. I trust there are no hirvi's on the island
Thanks! Only frogs so far

love your videos
Bro I'm really enjoying it, it's really a unique idea to start with, hope you will get more reach soon.
Yaay ship shot

I think it would be really cool to plant stuff eventually. But I haven't looked into it much, though.
Good video
wow, nice content.
maybe do some videos in finnish that would be nice!
Wellcome,I live 6 months at The Saimaa lakes.
Electricity I get from My cat,nice
🙂👍🔥
Love from India ❤️
👍👍✔️✔️👏👏
I think you need to build some automated turrets in case want to rob the island
Great content and lovely to watch! How many times did you need to charge the chainsaw batteries that day?
I like and comment bc im a true homie

Hopefully, we will mostly use wood from the island and only buy wood when we have to.
So sick
What do you reckon on the Ducks rebrand? Also who's ya fave Liiga team?
Looks sick! Happy to have the old logo back. Probably the pelicans watch the nhl way more though.
You seriously need some working golves!
Can I have your autograph?
