I have been following Jake for a long time... You Nicole- are a breath of fresh air- Speak your truth, please. Life is NOT always rainbows and glitter. Seeing how people persevere through those times- is what people want to see. Rooting for the best for ya'll!
Thanks Nicole...thanks for sharing... your heartfelt confession is my favorite part. Fun to be on this adventure with you two.
Barbara C thank you 😊
You're a trooper Nicole. I wouldn't be there till it warmed up at least twenty degrees more!
Have you ever made a house plant using the avocado pit, or ground up the avocado pit and mixed with fruit and nuts, ice and water, lime or lemon. Good for breakfast smoothie! Pit is loaded with vitamins!
Nicole,I'm so looking forward to you both moving into your Yurt. Its very fascinating to see the process of settling right from the start,bit like in the pioneer days,Nicole Pioneer woman,but I just can wait to see you both enjoy your cosy Yurt home.
Awesome job guys! My wife and I love watching your videos and keeping up with your new projects. Nicole thanks for being transparent and sincere, for pouring your heart out. Look forward to all your videos.
Alex Felix 😊💜
Hi Nicole & Jake, you guys are doing AWESOME, I ❤️❤️❤️ all the Sustainable Hacks, like collecting Water off the tarps 👍👍👍 you got this, hang in there it’s a big adjustment going from City living in the Desert to Off- Grid in a Rain forest, Yum that dish looked like the “ bomb” Thanks for taking us along & great job on the Carport/ House can’t wait to see how much rain water you can catch from that roof 👍👍👍 Marta
11:20 Jake looks like Grumpy Cat! You are doing amazing and keeping that positive energy is hard! Love watching the progress.
Coco Lee Funny because I always feel like she is grumpy and Jake is upbeat. Lol
Congratulations on finishing the carport! Looks great!! If you need more shelter from blowing windy rain to keep things dryer you could put tarps on the inside below the sheet metal where it is open and even hang tarps on the ends from the inside to keep out blowing rain.
Love watching your progress. You’re such an incredible couple. Stay safe!
Can't Wait To See This One!
Thanks for sharing. I am looking forward to the yurt build.
It will definitely all pay off! You are a strong person and this will make you even stronger. Years down the road you will look back and laugh at these times, just right now it is no fun.
It's so inspiring to see you eating such rich, healthy food while you are roughing it! And great to see you dancing and jamming to the cooking...lifting your mood. You are 2 amazing personalities. And Jake is learning a LOT about building. ;)
Ive been following your channels for quite a while now and i must say everyday i hope there is a new video from this series/stage of your journey. I am not a vegan, but over since you guys were in AZ i have really changed my eating habbits toward the vegan side. I look for better sourced ingredients, and often find myself getting vegan food. I work in seattle and in the south sound, im originally from kelso and portland so i am loving the NW connection! Just think when summer comes how awesome that place your in is going to be!
I really feel for you Nicole. I treasure your “confessions “. You’re so honest and real. I watched one of your recent vlogs and have gone right back to the beginning of your story. I skipped the travelling vlogs for the moment and have started on your off grid journey. I love you two xx
Your honesty is welcome...and props to you for being so productive w/videos during this incredibly challenging adventure!
I think your video confession has lifted your spirits Nicole. You had seemed a bit down in the last few episodes. Even though it’ll be fantastic when your finished, getting there must be very difficult to deal with some days. Keep your chin up.
Good to see your spirits high! Keep up the great work. It’s so going to be worth it!!!
I love watching your videos and the journey that you both are on. I did notice when Nicole was making lunch that you had your veggies in a string bag, however they were inside plastic bags in the string bag. Just a thought, maybe get the veggies without the plastic, then you will have less unnecessary waste. Also, plastic is really bad for the environment. Keep up the great videos.
11:30 total The Shining vibes!
You guys are doing fantastic. Really appreciate the "confession" Nicole. One of the things that helps me live a yurt life is letting go of our modern perception of timeliness. It's a lifestyle that takes a lot of work and time. So it's going to take you longer to do things...and that is ok. Give yourself grace. Love to see how you support each other. Humor helps a lot!
Good On Ya for workin' hard and realizing this is a step on the journey and you will have moments of "oh my GOD what did I agree to?!?!?" and even more moments of "oh my, this is my Life now I am So Blessed!"
It's great that you're doing a journal of not only what you are accomplishing but also how you are feeling along the way, next year when you look thru these video's you just might shock yourself :)
The two of you have done a lot of hard work and what you have accomplished together is wonderful and you should be proud of yourselves. I found your channel a few days ago and I've watched all your videos except for a few of the early ones after you started again Living Off Grid. I only have a couple more to watch and now I can watch the new videos as they come out. Keep working hard and after a few years, you can look back at what you've done and wonder how you did it all. I know this for a fact because I look back at things I've made and wonder myself. I thank God that I save all my drawings so I could do it all over and in less time.
You guys could make a rain catch for water with the roofing of the new carport.
I hadn't watch the video up until you were already doing this with tarps lol. Oops.
Good point. Add mesh covered gutters on both sides, it slopes down toward the back so have another gutter on the back channeling all runoff to a tank on one side
I love watching your guys journey!!
Genuinely YOU ARE BOTH AMAZING.. Your strong spirit and focus is an inspiration. Real talk by Nicole is the human experience making thought and vision meet, with real-life experiences. The yert will make all this worth it that's for sure!!!
Kindness your way
Neil ( Lochness Scottish Highlands
I love both your channels! Put a gutter up on both sides of that structure for water! It will save you so much time and energy where you are located. Get that catchment system in place for the time being and you will be loving it! Love your channels and keep on keeping on. 👍👍
You guys are doing great, dont let the weather bring you down, embrace it and remember we are all cheering for you! Great things are coming soon!
Congrats on the garage!!! Thank you Nicole for sharing the ups & downs of starting a new build. Keep up the spirits, cheering on from Texas!!! My ears perked up when you extended a visit out to the island 🌴 for your patreons 😊
キッチンは外なの カナダの冬は？寒いのでは 毎日がキャンプ 最高だね
Love you all. Keep going. You both are awesome!
More power to you for opening up...since you usually show only the good times, it is nice to know that you do get down at times--it is only human! I am truly amazed at the accuracy of your weather forecasts there for when I lived in Anchorage it was rare, and I mean rare, that our weather forecasts were any where close to accurate, even here in Arizona one questions the forecast when it is not hot, hot, hot! Thanks for your wonderful vlogs!
Thank you again for the peek into your lives, and journey. It's ok to have feelings that it's hard, it is hard! If it wasn't, everyone would do it, then it wouldnt feel like pioneering, cutting your own path in life. Thank you for the positive outlook while remaining real about it :)
Subscribed a year ago, but needed to feel the energy of your beginning. Well done...you've inspired us to consider emulating you two. 👍
Great Video. Nicole you are doing a fantastic job editing. Love you two. Thank you so much for being so honest about how you have been feeling. Much love to you both. Happy building.
It's best to be thorough in building any structure. You two have the life that I want.
Yalls vision is short of amazing
So exciting. What an awesome adventure. Love you guys. Cheers 💖🙏💪🎉
That ramen is so good. I pick it up at Costco. 💖 You guys cooks the yummiest meals😍
Thanks guys for the inspiration and sharing your journey. Glad to offer a little support!
Staceycoha C 💜
Love you guys. I have two days off and still staying home from this delta pandem...so I will be watching a lot of vids 💕💕💕
I am really looking forward to the Yurt. Good luck to you guys, you are my daily does of Zen.
Hi guys, it would be so worth your while acquiring some guttering and 2 downpipes and a couple of barrels like your composting toilet, if it rains so much there you will find you probably won't ever have to collect water again.
Nicole you are so strong and I love you guys! I loved the "confessions with Nicole" skit, awesome getting to know you! I can't wait to keep watching all of these episodes. I'm only on episode 5! I'm so excited!
Whoop whoop it’s done!😄
your living many peoples dream. Enjoy the show. Did you purchase the property your building on, or is it part of a family place/property...I love seeing young people with the energy and determination to do something productive..I am 82 years old.
Shelvie Parker they said on episode one that they sold all their stuff and bought an 8acre property so I think it’s just there’s :). I love your doggo in your profile picture
It's hard, but it will be worth it. You have that vibe and it's awesome and shows in your videos.
A +for Resilience and Strength of Character ! ! !
I do admire your decision to make it happen. Makes me wish I was about 40 years younger to start again. Well wishing you the best there
Go girl your a real trooper always pray for your safety . Things will be come more amazing 🤗. Such amazing couple you can do it Bless you both
Just started watching...thought I’d start at the beginning, ...to see your stamina
A much needed “True Confession “ by Nicole
...yes it’s not peaches & cream easy ..all the time
I’ve camped ... for a few days then hightailed it home, can’t imagine FULL TIMING from scratch !
Awesome!!! Loves😊
It is hard now but will be so rewarding in the end 🌺
Loving this! I started from your first episode of starting over, and am currently binge watching!
Making "Top Bomben" cuz it's the bomb
You two are amazing. ❤️❤️
have a brew and push on through
Sometimes I'll take my wet logs and put them atop my gas stove to dry and subsequently ignite them, then place them in a fire ring. Only takes a couple of minutes.
Did I mention 80 degrees and SUNNY in Southern Arizona? I'll mail you a package with 20 degrees and 5 hours of bright sun light in it to use as you wish. Merry Christmas. lol
Hi guys watching you two fixing your meals makes me hungry until I see what your going to eat, I'm sorry I'm a meat-eater but I do like some veggies but not to eat them for a complete meal, to each their own. It looks like your getting your campsite set you nicely.
Very interesting I'm watching progress closely
im normally a meat eater but for you guys I tried a Moroccan vegetable pasty a vegan one it was hot spicy I loved it
Looking good!
If you split the round logs in half or quarters they take up the fire much quicker : )
Good luck with your lifetime adventure. Lovely to see the love you share. Why don’t you get some waterproof clothes and proper hiking boots? :) also regarding the easy build structure, if it is only temporary, wouldn’t it be more convenient to get a big gazebo? Gazebos are waterproof and easy to build and move. This one will be hard to move because it’s metal and fixed in the ground with concrete. Just a few thoughts.
Yes girl!!! Yay!
Nicole your cool 😎
Shaquan Conyers thank you 😊
What's the next video for your project
Captivating watching you two. I keep checking wanting to see more. The videos are too short :( though. I could watch you two for hours and I do lol. please realize you both are living the dream that many of us have always desired but will never get to live. Im 59 and have always been spontaneous but my husband of 8 years is not. We did do a little traveling but his 35 year old daughter died tragically and we are raising her little girl who is now 6 years old. Have fun and savor every moment. God bless.
Love you Nicole!
Love you too babe 😘
you need to get some rain barrels to collect the rain water.
♡♡♡♡♡ you Nicole , stay safe and good luck!
i realize this was ages ago - but for the benefit of others - a dead-standing tree would be dry, seasoned and easier to process for fire wood.
Looks great guys !! Congratulations !!
Been watching your adventure on your new home base. And the trail to the river that you share with the wildlife for water, I think you should get a game cam, you really need to know who and what shares it with you. I was attacked by bears in the mountains, they were not after me, but my food. Not sure of where you are at, but I think it would be wise to know what critters are lurking about. Understand they know your there , they smell the cooking and food. Anyway thats my 2 cents worth. By the way 4 more years and I retire, plan to build a cabin in Colorado mountains to live . But haven't located that perfect spot yet. Well good luck and be safe smart. Doug
"Its called easy build structure, so it should be easy- right?"😂😂
Good life!!! I to am looking for land to move off grid and i hope i can find land as nice as you. I take it you are going to live in the carport till you build your home good luck.
when will the fishing begin ?
vegan fish??
However did you find this awesome property? Way to go on getting the carport done. Cut a bit of firewood and make a rain catch system before the yurt.
I love you both and what you do
Fab vlog 👍 our gorgeous trooper Nicole 💚 ...
Yey!
Watching ep.5 from Maldives, you almost lost all that rain water when you were trying to collect it to the bucket
I split my wet logs with either a hatchet/axe or by batoning my knife to split the logs. Unless your logs have been floating in the ocean/lake for months, they should be dry inside. lol
Good luck with everything, hang in there ;) 🍀thanks for the music inspo btw! 😊
It's refreshing to hear and see your bright cheery attitude towards life in general great spirit both of you.
Will your Yurt have a bathroom in it as well?? Or is there an outhouse for the call of nature?
WOW! I am so happy for you two! I just want to pack my stuff here in phoenix and come visit you to help clear trees and move soil. I have the experience to climb trees and cut them, the strength to share a lot of it with you for free and the motivation that someone needs to help someone change their life. You guys inspire me, you guys are awesome. I honestly wished we would have met. You would be a but surprised if you knew who my girlfriend is but I am positive it would be a happy surprise haha. You guys are awesome. Seriously. I can help. And I don't want anything in return. Being friends or calling you two friends would be a bigger payment than anything else. Stay safe and keep going, so many are watching. The negative comments are from the ones that just don't have the balls to go out there and do what you are doing. Ignoring them is the most powerful thing you can do. It will destroy them one by one. :)
Had to watch the dancing cook part several times
You guys really good
Very inspiring....
Keep the gnats out by using a hat with a wrap around net, like the beekeepers use.
Thanks for the awesome vids.
Nicole, your so adorable and a very strong woman. You can do it because you have such a supportive man.👍👍
Thanks for another great video.
You're stronger than you've ever known Nicole 👍
My initial plan was also to do a UA-cam channel when I bought raw land and built my yurt. There was so much to do that that the channel never happened. Having enough dry firewood continues to be a concern for me and doing the dishes is a pain without running water. It's amazing how quickly you adjust to the raw conditions you are living in.
How big is your yurt going to be?
Mine is only 24ft and although it is big enough for me, it would not be suitable for two. What brand did you go with? Mine is a Pacific yurt.
Young and crazy!
I love your attitude. Your the wild side of that duo LOL
Jake is deeply in love😍😍 nicole, sweet couple
Everything is cool and I wish you well. I'm just curious why you picked this particular place. It's pretty dark and cold, will your veggies and fruits grow surrounded by this dark forest? Unless it's just few winter months like that and then it's gonna be warm and sunny?
💚🌱
Hi Jake and Nicole...Greetings from Cave Creek, AZ. Just out of curiosity, does BC require building permits for the work you are doing/plan to do? Is "living off grid" regulation free?
Depends on the Regional District, they are probably in this one www.rdmw.bc.ca/
I hope you guys get a firearm. You might need it with those critters on occasion. Bears and cougs are nuthin to mess with.
Вы очень красивая пара, у вас такая идиллия
