Job well done ! I'm two years into my mountain cabin in the rocky mountains with off-grid solar as well. I'm 75 years old...It's nice to see young folks making a sustainable lifestyle using sweat equity, dedication and smart planning. Best of luck to you both!!
Man mountain land is expensive. Not to mention the super short growing season. The land over south by alamosa is $5000 for 4 acres. But no beauty of the mountains. I'm just tired if city living.
I know an older British man living in Nova Scotia who is building a house out of huge timbers and stones. I wish I could keep up to the amount of stamina and drive he has!
I want to do solar but living in New york I'd need a big 11 kwh system to get enough power to supplement my power consumption. And those cost like 20 grand WITHOUT the batteries lol
We choose to live in the mountain, in Argentina 7 years ago, the life is really rough, but we didnt change it for anything. We love it and share in our channel too. Best vibes to you both!!
I genuinely enjoyed every single second of this video. This is what I’m working towards right now. I’ve wanted to quit my dream of traveling and having my own land in the middle of nowhere because these last two years have been especially challenging…. Thank you for sharing your life online. It really inspires me to keep on going despite all the bumps in the road. Absolutely loved this!!!
I am deeply amazed! This is the exact dream I ever had in my life!!! You inspired me deeply! Sooner or later I will have my own farm using the elements as a source of energy! Sending you much love and adoration!!!
That was one of the best narrative videos I have ever seen. Kaylee, you did an amazing job! Very cute outfit. Jordan did a great job behind the camera showing every detail. It's so nice that you can use the wood from your surroundings and at the end of the day, you all built everything with your own hands. What an accomplishment. If you find more downed trees, use the wood to make a goat pile with steps. The reason why they climb on top of their roof is because they need to climb things. Just a thought.
Well done, Kaylee showing your audience around Lola’s Farm. What wonderful accomplishments this year, I can see your pride in not just the amount but the quality of what you and Jordan finished in 12 months. Bravo to your vision and perseverance and best of luck in the next instalment.
what a beautiful episode. A terrific tour of your fabulous homestead and a great overview of all the love, sweat and tears, plus the laughter and communing with nature that has been so pivotal to lolas farm and your vlogs. Bless you all and cheers to a million and more happy days. Hugs from Australia
Amazing couple with amazing drive. In my fall of life and at 74 have never forgotten Great advice from gramps. " its better to wear out than rust out ".
So brilliant to share and expand this homestead with a community. The desire to travel and responsibility of caring for the land and animals has been my concern too with living a sustainable lifestyle.
Thank you both for your video. You have restored hope in a 75 year old Aussie man that not all youth are lost to the $. Yes we need money, but we need the earth more.
Such a surreal experience realising how much time has passed, it seems like yesterday that I saw you guys doubt about what land to get, drive the bus is, starting the deck etc. Love the progress
I admire all of this so much... The courage, dedication, resillience, humility, and love it all takes. Also, i think this is alot of progress for only a year! I'm so happy to have seen this video, much love from Portugal!
For that rough road of yours, try getting hold of an old grader/tractor tyre. The bigger/heavier the better. Lay it flat, put one of your pieces of offcut square tubes on the inside with a strong U-Bolt through the tyre. You can even add a grate inside and add rocks/gravel inside for additional weight. Then, just drag it behind your truck using a strong chain when you go down to town and then back up again on your way home... In no time your road will be smooth and driveable as the rubber even rips out the small rocks sticking out the ground for a nice smooth finnish...
@@agarqueen9126 That depends on how many spinal fusions that you have had and I can hardly keep up with 4 Grandchildren especially in a 2 story house !
Wow! Time flies. I've been following you since the days of feeding the homeless. Your progress & the sustainability of Lola's Farm is just Amazing! Great job! I can't wait to see the continued evolution of the farm. You both have such a giving heart.
Hello, I have been to Boquete 10 years ago, Many times to CR and like the town of David. Wonderful warm people, loved talking to the fishermen. Be careful in Panama, of course you know the stories. Help the locals when you can. Ross, NW Indiana.
Wow. The last time I looked in on this channel, you were just starting on the metal structure for the workshop and the greenhouse. Just goes to show; if you blink you miss stuff. Just wow.
You guys are great to watch......and easy on the eyes too. I have been watching for around 3 years now. When you guys first started traveling in the bus I really wondered how long you guys would last. Wow 3 years later and I am still watching every episode! Cheers.
I’m so intrigued on how successful the both have accomplished while the crazy pandemic happened. This is such an accomplishment I see and I’m sure there are many more. I’m excited for you all. This video brought tears for joy and happiness for you both. Congratulations!! My journey is through yours. Thank you 🙏
I can tell y'all really love each other and love what y'all are doing and how y'all are living which is fantastic and I just come across y'all's video as of father's day 2021 and I'm glad I did your videos are very interesting
Thank you all so much for bringing some joy into our days , you all bring such warmth and amazing hopeful vibes in this ever growing uncertain world , we always have a big smile at the end of each video, keep being excellent to each other :)
Hey,kiddos. Been with u all from the beginning. I still have your hand written notes. My life took a turn with covid. I got a RV and working as a traveling nurse and then....I got covid in February of this year and was DX with long haul covid the day I got fired from my job for being sick. I was able to relax and healing now. Great to have your update on this day Aug 14th. Everything looks so beautiful including you 2 with all your extended family and live stock. Hug and congrats on your successful year. Soul peace dear ones Virginia B
You guys have come such a long way! Lola's Farm is looking awesome!! It's truly amazing what can be accomplished .... even during the most difficult of times! Looking forward to all of the videos that will come during the next phase of your homestead build in beautiful Boquete! This way of life should blossom all over the plane with small communities coming together and being self reliant! What a beautiful way of life! Happy New Year to you!
someday i will have my own small farm.... thats the dream me and my wife have. we are still young and aren't afraid of doing alot of work itself but the cost over here is tremendous. buying 3 acres for example wouldn't even be possible here :( seeing this inspires me to keep fighting for our dream and one day we will get there!
wow!!! I stumbled across your video by chance and I've learned so much, thank you! I've had similar ideas for a while including making communities around the world which eventually all network and rely on each other.. I'd be keen to know how this community would govern itself and I hope I get to visit your community someday soon! Thanks again for sharing this
Congratulations! I am a huge fan from the beginning. With all that is going on in the world, it is such a joy and pleasure to experience your heart, spirit and hard work each week. Thank You...
Standing there, with your skirt and boots, in the middle of the grass, surrounded by green grass and flowers and mountains, I was waiting for you to break into song, ''The hills are alive, with the sound of music...'' or maybe ''Edelweiss'' 😄
That joke about the contacting the aliens.....for half a second I thought you were serious and I was like, WTF type of channel did I stumble upon. Classic!
Aliens indeed, I’ve spoken to a number of Americans in the mountains and on the shores around Panama using HF ham radio there area couple of places there were a lot of US citizens retired too.
I just discovered your channel and subscribed- with all the back to the land channels on You Tube, you guys are the real thing! I'm retiring in 3 years and hope to build an off grid house, chicken coop, and greenhouse myself. I think the photovolics will be the hardest part for me; but your channel will definitely help. I'm thinking Arkansas, Tennessee, Missouri. Hope there is still some affordable land left somewhere! Even though I won't be around to see it, I'd also like my land to become a community.
What an amazing life you have being living! Having traveled around America in a converted bus, now building a homestead in Panama during a pandemic! And you achieved all these in such young age!
I am so proud of you guys. Everything looks awesome. Happy 1 year anniversary. You have accomplished so much! I knew you would though, you guys are determined. I loved watching you in the bus for so long and then moving on to this wonderful project. What an adventure!
amazing seeing how far 2 people with nothing can get with just dedication and teamwork,my gosh tis place looks amazing,espicially the location in which you started it looks stunning
HEY! I remember you two from a video you made on a home maid air cooler just before you left the states. You were concerned about driving in south America but ready to make it happen. I admired your enthusiasm but had to say that I didn't think it was a good idea. I'm happy to say I was wrong. This homestead you're building is awesome. I'm impressed. With everything you two have been through, you really done a lot and that has to speak for the love you share. Totally awesome. 😀. Looks like I have some video watching to catch up on so take care you two.
New viewer here. I really like what you’re doing. I would like to ask two questions: 1) what brand is the tiny wood stove, I haven’t been able to find one that small; 2) could we get more info on the wind turbine, that is another thing I haven’t been able to find good info on. Thank you so much for putting yourselves out there for us to enjoy.
My biggest dreams would become true, if I would be part of this community. You really spoke from my heart and you live the life I always desired. Congratulations! I am so happy for you, that you made it ❤️🍀
Love your journey,,, thanks for the recap of the year!! I am a nomad artist,,,have lived in my 5th wheel with my 2 dogs and traveled all around the western U.S. creating tiny stoneware vessels and hitting art shows along the way. Covid bit me hard too, and I now am remodeling an old barn on my sons property up in Washington state. It’s so cool to see the things we are both doing in a similar manner, although I am no longer off grid as much as I was when I was on the road. I subscribed to your channel and look forward to seeing more of your journey. Your plans for a community is totally awesome! I wish you both prosperity and joy.
This was awesome to watch...well done, you worked so hard and must be courageous to take on this way of life. You made me wish I was young again and could start all over. So impressed by you beautiful people, you took control and responsibility for your own lives. Oh we need a world full of you two 👍👍🥰
A good point of reference for those that would like to live like you is a detailed budget and actual expenses. Just in the solar gear and the chain saw milling tools there is over $5,000. I imagen that the materials for the different building structures are probably about another $5,000 so you probably have a good $15,000 invested and that is without the land, taxes, etc.
Yeah that's without building the house lol I'm buying 2 acres, putting a mobile home on it, and having utilities run and even THAT is gunna cost around 55 grand. Offgrid would bump that number up, but I'll get off grid incrementally as I save my money back up lol I'm trying to fund all of this in cash 😅
Wow that’s so cool! My boyfriend and I purchased a plot of land and house January 19,2020, we moved in! After a 2 year search. IMO your timing is impeccable!
I would make a large sealed “pond” at the top of the hill and run a pipe all the way down with a hydro electric generator if it rains that much and you can make the pond big enough u might be able to make electricity 24/7 or you could basically use the pond as a massive battery and only open the valve when u need power
A very well thought plan for your property. I'm glad that wasn't really an alien contact antenna. Congrats on putting it all together. I drove a 79 Mustang to all 49 continental states and all of Canada and part of Mexico in the 80s. My sticker/decal wall was a Coleman cooler. I still have it to this day.
@@joecrowe7062 Depends what you wanna do. If you go to foreign countries you get different culture, different food and drink, different chocolate bars.
@@joecrowe7062 Yes, I agree. I think we have just about every kind of Terrain there is. Took a "Train" ride (didn't have to keep my eyes on the road) from Florida to California. What an experience, we have it all right here in USA. If Crowe is your' real name I went to school with a Donald Crowe in Massachusetts 70 years ago. :O)
You guys are leading an amazing life and purpose. Thanks for sharing your story, which is really inspiring. This is the way to be and many are returning to the land and building their own tribe along the way! You are all amazing!
Love the extensive use of apparently well designed steel fabrications, though no doubt expensive. I suspect it is very important in an environment where wood is a meal for the native insects.
What I would really love is it channels like this would give some indication for the kind of financial commitment these types of things are. Moving off the grid like this sounds absolutely amazing but what kind of a nest egg/monthly income to you need to make it work, I.E. Survival of day to day plus construction and mantience.
So, you guys obviously don't know all of your viewers, but we all know you, and I just really want to say that I am so proud of you guys!!! You've put in so much FUN work to create your dream!! You are so passionate and courageous to be doing all of this and it inspires people by the THOUSANDS every time you post a video!! It's been so beautiful and amazing to follow your journey and I am so thankful and blessed to have influencers like yourselves to remind me that it's not only okay, but inspiring to follow your dreams and listen to your soul's guidance!! You are so loved and appreciated for all that you do!! Thank you so much for being who you are in this world ❤ P.S. Kaylee, you absolutely SLAYED that tour and I am LIVING for your aesthetic!!!! 😍😍😍😍 Along with great filming from Jordan!!!
I Love you, Kaylee. And I’m lovin’ this vlog and I just got into it...”alien communication device”. LOL...and out loud laughter is not necessarily my type of laughter. Keep on keeping on...we’re loving The Nomadic Movement.
Thank the US government for focusing on 20 years of failed wars rather than improving our infrastructure. The US has the slowest broadband speeds in the developed world
@@alysiamiller1629 totally not a coincidence that we are all in this comment section right now from pinellas county haha, girl we should team up and make this happen, ive been searching for conscious creators to build off grid community with, and i whole heartedly believe it was divine intervention that we are literally here within 12 hours of each other :)
starting to see a lot of rich young folks moving off the grid, with professional equipment and portraying that they have to move there out of necessity.
at least they're not sponging off the government ayyee?!?! the definition of unnecessary is blowing one's benefits on ciggies and booze ayye, good words though like "portraying" really switched on person
Do rich young foIk deserve to be happy? They aren't hurting anyone and even with professional equipment, it isn't an easy task to take on, so I say good for them and support anyone who wants to make the most of their Life in such a positive manner
Same here I left LA california 1/2 weeks b4 lockdown. I'm still in the states, purchasing 11 acres outside peoria illinois. It's in chilicothe farmland lots of trees and hills. Luv it!!
I know from having been to Panama that they have leopards, coyotes, parrots among a fierce array of gorgeous birds, rats of any size you can imagine, spiders you can’t count, bugs, bugs and more bugs.
Fantastic. I'm sure it's on your "To Do" list, but you've really got to get into some low fired pottery. Impressed by your Shou Sugi Ban work, I've been using that technique myself since the mid-80s. So you should get into some Raku pottery to match. :) Looking forward to following you.
Love your guys been following you since you were traveling in the bus! Stay well and keep up the amazing videos! Thank you for sharing your experience and life on UA-cam!
You two have the right idea, down to the concerns of not being tied down, or a hostage to your home. I stumbled upon your video. Thank you so much for making it. Ive got this huge smile on my face now. Love seeing others dreams become reality!! Its the good stuff!!! Get after it you guys! Woot! Woot!
I've watched your videos... The work you have done is amazing.....but.... Anything is possible with pockets full of money. I'm glad that you have realized your dream
It is s amazing when I see everything you and Jordan have done to yet, love watching everything you all have done so far, amazing you people you all are thanks 👍❤
The first project on the land was actually the first water catchment system that flew like a kite with the high winds. The progress has been awesome to see.
So wow-WoWed am I. You"re both so lovely energetic and bright- spirited. What a great host and tourr guide and explainer-of- things you are !!. I had no choice but to avidly stay tuned. Thankyou for the very presence of your inspiring selves. 🌿🌱
I like watching videos like this with people living off the grid or finding their dream property. Just wondering where you get the money to do all of the work and buying everything that you need to create your dream.
Awesome. I'm rehabbing an old prefab home on-grid and I thought that was tough. Building something from scratch in a foreign country? Amazing. Great job.
You guys are so so so inspiring and phenomenal. You show us it can be done and I think everyone of us should do this. And you seem so perfect together. Well done guys
It was only a year and you have accomplished sooo much! I'm so excited for Rodrigo that he gets his own A-frame! You all together are a role model for what is possible when people share the same dream and working and building it together! 🌹
Am speechless.. Wow.. 😘😘😘 Currently I am building my own Musang King orchard with watering system on 4 acres of land. There got house for tools for my machineries and 2 safety dogs. Solar is my main source for lamp and fencing system. Glad to see you put some info on this video. There maybe the budget, costing of what you have had in your farm while you displaying them next to you. Esp wind turbine, temp house, solar panels, rain collecting system and so on.. 🙏🙏🙏 Now having abt 150 premium durian varieties and 150 small fruit trees in between durian trees. Love to have full solar system and 3-5 chalet in near future. 😜😜
Job well done ! I'm two years into my mountain cabin in the rocky mountains with off-grid solar as well. I'm 75 years old...It's nice to see young folks making a sustainable lifestyle using sweat equity, dedication and smart planning. Best of luck to you both!!

I am deeply amazed! This is the exact dream I ever had in my life!!! You inspired me deeply! Sooner or later I will have my own farm using the elements as a source of energy! Sending you much love and adoration!!!
As a 56 year old man who did some growing up in Massachusetts I am very inspired to see you two living life outside the norms of that way I grew up.

Thank you both for your video. You have restored hope in a 75 year old Aussie man that not all youth are lost to the $. Yes we need money, but we need the earth more.
its not the youths' fault that boomers in every industrial nation have put regulations that make living a natural life impossible.
Yeah everyone line up and get yourselves 3 acres per two people, we will end up needing land indeed
Such a surreal experience realising how much time has passed, it seems like yesterday that I saw you guys doubt about what land to get, drive the bus is, starting the deck etc. Love the progress

That probably would work better when the ground is wet.
So crazy. I started watching when you were still in Mexico. To see all of this is just so heartwarming. Thank you guys for sharing.
This video has made me realize i am definitely not living my best life.
you can escape the system!!
This video made me realize that you should do this in your twenties and not sixty and up !

My biggest dreams would become true, if I would be part of this community. You really spoke from my heart and you live the life I always desired. Congratulations! I am so happy for you, that you made it ❤️🍀
Love your journey,,, thanks for the recap of the year!! I am a nomad artist,,,have lived in my 5th wheel with my 2 dogs and traveled all around the western U.S. creating tiny stoneware vessels and hitting art shows along the way. Covid bit me hard too, and I now am remodeling an old barn on my sons property up in Washington state. It’s so cool to see the things we are both doing in a similar manner, although I am no longer off grid as much as I was when I was on the road. I subscribed to your channel and look forward to seeing more of your journey. Your plans for a community is totally awesome! I wish you both prosperity and joy.
This was awesome to watch...well done, you worked so hard and must be courageous to take on this way of life.
You made me wish I was young again and could start all over. So impressed by you beautiful people, you took control and responsibility for your own lives. Oh we need a world full of you two 👍👍🥰
A good point of reference for those that would like to live like you is a detailed budget and actual expenses. Just in the solar gear and the chain saw milling tools there is over $5,000. I imagen that the materials for the different building structures are probably about another $5,000 so you probably have a good $15,000 invested and that is without the land, taxes, etc.
Yeah that's without building the house lol I'm buying 2 acres, putting a mobile home on it, and having utilities run and even THAT is gunna cost around 55 grand. Offgrid would bump that number up, but I'll get off grid incrementally as I save my money back up lol I'm trying to fund all of this in cash 😅
all that travle... they dont work...where is money coming from_
@@glovozagreb6594 youtube and sponsors, brother
Wow that’s so cool! My boyfriend and I purchased a plot of land and house January 19,2020, we moved in! After a 2 year search. IMO your timing is impeccable!
I would make a large sealed “pond” at the top of the hill and run a pipe all the way down with a hydro electric generator if it rains that much and you can make the pond big enough u might be able to make electricity 24/7 or you could basically use the pond as a massive battery and only open the valve when u need power
Or 2 ponds to pump it back up with unused solar/wind Power.
A very well thought plan for your property. I'm glad that wasn't really an alien contact antenna. Congrats on putting it all together. I drove a 79 Mustang to all 49 continental states and all of Canada and part of Mexico in the 80s. My sticker/decal wall was a Coleman cooler. I still have it to this day.
Best boss I ever had use to say."I don't know why people go to other parts of the world when there is so much to see in the states" do you agree
@@joecrowe7062 I liked that I could spontaneously drive anywhere and see so much along the way vs dealing with airports.
@@joecrowe7062 Depends what you wanna do. If you go to foreign countries you get different culture, different food and drink, different chocolate bars.
@@SongWhisperer Same here. Great experiences.
@@joecrowe7062 Yes, I agree.
I think we have just about every kind of Terrain there is.
Took a "Train" ride (didn't have to keep my eyes on the road) from Florida to California. What an experience, we have it all right here in USA.
If Crowe is your' real name I went to school with a Donald Crowe in Massachusetts 70 years ago. :O)
You guys are leading an amazing life and purpose. Thanks for sharing your story, which is really inspiring. This is the way to be and many are returning to the land and building their own tribe along the way! You are all amazing!
She’s so wiggly and cute, I smile the entire video!!! 🤗🤗🤗

Love the extensive use of apparently well designed steel fabrications, though no doubt expensive. I suspect it is very important in an environment where wood is a meal for the native insects.
I love that you love each other enough to do this journey together. I wish you all the happiness in your beautiful life together! Just awesome..❤
I could live off grid happily as long as i have highspeed unlimited inernet
Kind of defeats the actual definition of "off grid" .. don't you think..lol
Anthony Lehner exactly 😏 it seems to be a “novelty” to some and a matter of life or death to many..
I agree. Give me high speed Internet with access to fresh water and some type of power and I’m good 🙂
🤣 I could totally live off the grid...as long as I am still 100% on the grid.
Starlink 👌
I was impressed with the project, especially when she said our "120 volt system" (everyone says 110 volt)....this girl knows her stuff.
Her boyfriend does. He built all that, and let her know.
What I would really love is it channels like this would give some indication for the kind of financial commitment these types of things are. Moving off the grid like this sounds absolutely amazing but what kind of a nest egg/monthly income to you need to make it work, I.E. Survival of day to day plus construction and mantience.
It is indeed very rare to see people giving full disclosure how they can afford this, although it is an integral part of the story
Dude - they're making money off of 1.7M views on UA-cam
@@jefffaulkner8793 good point
once ur set id imagine maintenance costs are very low

You guys, all of you have done a phenomenal job !!! I can't wait to see you working on your forever home !! May you be safe and always content 🙏 🥰🥰🥰😘
So, you guys obviously don't know all of your viewers, but we all know you, and I just really want to say that I am so proud of you guys!!! You've put in so much FUN work to create your dream!! You are so passionate and courageous to be doing all of this and it inspires people by the THOUSANDS every time you post a video!! It's been so beautiful and amazing to follow your journey and I am so thankful and blessed to have influencers like yourselves to remind me that it's not only okay, but inspiring to follow your dreams and listen to your soul's guidance!! You are so loved and appreciated for all that you do!! Thank you so much for being who you are in this world ❤
P.S. Kaylee, you absolutely SLAYED that tour and I am LIVING for your aesthetic!!!! 😍😍😍😍 Along with great filming from Jordan!!!
You got some brown on your nose..
Thanks!
I Love you, Kaylee. And I’m lovin’ this vlog and I just got into it...”alien communication device”. LOL...and out loud laughter is not necessarily my type of laughter. Keep on keeping on...we’re loving The Nomadic Movement.
awe, was actually really interested in how you guys do the compost toilet.
;I
Awesome!!
What an amazing undertaking. Well done - wish you all the best!
Their internet faster in remote jungle than in Metro Tampa FL, thanks Spectrum.
True, I even feel like they stealing me for my internet service in NE compare to them.
@@joseaguilarmelgar3622 how fast it is and how much do you pay for it?
Hahaha I live in St Pete. So true!!
Thank the US government for focusing on 20 years of failed wars rather than improving our infrastructure. The US has the slowest broadband speeds in the developed world
@@alysiamiller1629 totally not a coincidence that we are all in this comment section right now from pinellas county haha, girl we should team up and make this happen, ive been searching for conscious creators to build off grid community with, and i whole heartedly believe it was divine intervention that we are literally here within 12 hours of each other :)
starting to see a lot of rich young folks moving off the grid, with professional equipment and portraying that they have to move there out of necessity.
Or maybe they don't smoke a pack of cigs and drink a 30 pack everyday.
at least they're not sponging off the government ayyee?!?! the definition of unnecessary is blowing one's benefits on ciggies and booze ayye, good words though like "portraying" really switched on person
Do rich young foIk deserve to be happy?
They aren't hurting anyone and even with professional equipment, it isn't an easy task to take on, so I say good for them and support anyone who wants to make the most of their Life in such a positive manner
Liberalism: An ideology of greed, envy, and laziness.
@@michaelpuglisi5108 nearIy as bad as communism
Same here I left LA california 1/2 weeks b4 lockdown. I'm still in the states, purchasing 11 acres outside peoria illinois. It's in chilicothe farmland lots of trees and hills. Luv it!!
Curious, being in Panama. What kind of wildlife have you guys seen on your property.
I know from having been to Panama that they have leopards, coyotes, parrots among a fierce array of gorgeous birds, rats of any size you can imagine, spiders you can’t count, bugs, bugs and more bugs.
Fantastic. I'm sure it's on your "To Do" list, but you've really got to get into some low fired pottery. Impressed by your Shou Sugi Ban work, I've been using that technique myself since the mid-80s. So you should get into some Raku pottery to match. :) Looking forward to following you.
The enthusiasm that you guys emanate is contagious! Please keep up the good work!
Love your guys been following you since you were traveling in the bus! Stay well and keep up the amazing videos! Thank you for sharing your experience and life on UA-cam!
I am, dreaming of living off the grid, you guys are giving great insight. Living with nature is heaven living in the city is a trap.
Maybe it just me, It's kinda of going backwards. Human passed on information, so we can evolve a better life. Not productive at all.
Guys, you are such a beautiful couple, in paradise, congratulation, and wish you all the best from the heart, hugs, and keep smiling.
You did all that in a year? Great job.
You two have the right idea, down to the concerns of not being tied down, or a hostage to your home. I stumbled upon your video. Thank you so much for making it. Ive got this huge smile on my face now. Love seeing others dreams become reality!! Its the good stuff!!!
Get after it you guys! Woot! Woot!
I've watched your videos...
The work you have done is amazing.....but....
Anything is possible with pockets full of money.
I'm glad that you have realized your dream
your place is beautiful and the rainbow, it's like the cherry on top.
LOL I love it. "We got goats mostly for cutting our grass" hehe :) You guys are living the life, awesome!
It is s amazing when I see everything you and Jordan have done to yet, love watching everything you all have done so far, amazing you people you all are thanks 👍❤
Love the tour.
You guys have rocked it
AMAZING !!!
You guys did a great job.
I feel the LOVE watching your video. And where there's LOVE, there's success! God bless you and your future projects!
The first project on the land was actually the first water catchment system that flew like a kite with the high winds. The progress has been awesome to see.
Party pooper. Smile. Learning experience!
So wow-WoWed am I. You"re both so lovely energetic and bright- spirited. What a great host and tourr guide and explainer-of- things you are !!. I had no choice but to avidly stay tuned. Thankyou for the very presence of your inspiring selves. 🌿🌱
love the tour of you Lola's Farm. looks natural incredible beautiful
I like watching videos like this with people living off the grid or finding their dream property. Just wondering where you get the money to do all of the work and buying everything that you need to create your dream.
By being rich.
You can make a lot of money from doing videos on uTube
You guys are living nice out there keep up the good work!
Awesome. I'm rehabbing an old prefab home on-grid and I thought that was tough. Building something from scratch in a foreign country? Amazing. Great job.
You guys are so so so inspiring and phenomenal. You show us it can be done and I think everyone of us should do this. And you seem so perfect together. Well done guys
It was only a year and you have accomplished sooo much! I'm so excited for Rodrigo that he gets his own A-frame! You all together are a role model for what is possible when people share the same dream and working and building it together! 🌹
Am speechless.. Wow.. 😘😘😘
Currently I am building my own Musang King orchard with watering system on 4 acres of land. There got house for tools for my machineries and 2 safety dogs. Solar is my main source for lamp and fencing system.
Glad to see you put some info on this video. There maybe the budget, costing of what you have had in your farm while you displaying them next to you. Esp wind turbine, temp house, solar panels, rain collecting system and so on.. 🙏🙏🙏
Now having abt 150 premium durian varieties and 150 small fruit trees in between durian trees. Love to have full solar system and 3-5 chalet in near future. 😜😜
This is amazing!!!!
agreed lets do this!!!
