Our Lake House in Sweden - How we turned a dream into reality
Вставка
- Опубліковано 10 чер 2024
- This is the story of how we made a lake house in Sweden our home. After moving from Germany, we always daydreamed of turning this vision into reality: our own Swedish lake house.💛 Come along as we share the journey of how we ended up here and what our first year by the lake-surrounded by nothing but forests-brought.
Thank you for watching - so glad to have you here!

Sehr inspirierend, vielen Dank!
Guys honestly ... this was SUCH a wonderful video!!! The storytelling, the scenes, the house, your beautiful smiles ... and you even had a VIKING WEDDING?! IN SWEDEN?! I am flabbergasted. Wow. Thank you so much for sharing this with us and I am looking sooooo forward to see more of you, your future projects and your beautiful smiles! My husband, me and my dog are going to move to Sweden this year in May as well. We also had a viking wedding 2 years ago. Maybe, one day, it would be lovely to meet you guys as it seems we have a very similar good taste in things 😄🥰 Sending you much love, luck and happiness!❤
Wow, thank you so much for your incredibly kind words! We're thrilled that you enjoyed the video and our Viking wedding-Sweden truly is a magical place for such celebrations. How exciting that you're also planning to move to Sweden in May! It sounds like we have quite a lot in common, and it would be wonderful to meet you one day. 😄🥰 Wishing you and your family all the best on your upcoming move and in all your adventures ahead. Sending much love, luck, and happiness right back to you! ❤️
Charming video, success in your new life in Sweden!
Thank you so much! We're thrilled to share our journey with you. Sweden has truly become our home, and we're excited for all the adventures that lie ahead.
Schön euch wieder zu sehen😊
So happy to see you back on UA-cam! I followed your journey while making plans and finally starting our own new life in Sweden. By accident we also ended up with a lakeside house and moved in when winter started. It were and will be busy and challenging months for us building a new life. Your video made me just realise that we need to shift focus back to the magic of living close to nature and spending more time with adventures.
But maybe 50 cm of snow and the temperatures we had in the last few weeks are just a good reason to experience the magic of staying inside by the kitchen fire and wait for spring to come 😂
Thank you so much for your kind words! It's amazing to hear that you've been following our journey and that it resonates with your own experiences. Living close to nature and embracing the magic of the countryside is truly something special. 😊
Enjoy those cozy kitchen moments and here's to spring soon! 🌼❄️😄
@@PikeAndOakNice house and you've done well.
Winter can be surprisingly long. Or short. Varies from year to year.
Have you embarked on "the other" journey ett? Learning Swedish. Getting to know the lands history, culture and traditions.
Subscribed! What fresh and lovely voices and visions you bring to the homesteading community!
Thank you very much. We really appreciate your support!🩷
BEAUTIFUL WEDDING.
Thank you so much! It really was a special day for us!
Muchas felicidades 🎉 y gracias por enseñarnos ese hermoso lugar del mundo 🌎

Thank you! It feels great to be back. 😊
Hey Alex and Sarah,
I am happy finding you again on UA-cam with a new Vlog - very appreciate it!
Beside that, I was looking for your eBook Travel Guide about Sweden. Is it still available? The links you provided earlier are not working anymore, unfortunately.
Maybe see you this year in Sweden, by accident ;)
So good to see you,missed you so much.So much happened .I will enjoy it.❤
Endlich wieder zurück ❤
Great video! Living by the lake looks like a true fairytale, though l am sure it comes with its challenges. The wedding pictures and the decorations are lovely, and building a wooden bench on the porch yourselves is truly impressive. 😊
Thank you so much for your kind words! Living by the lake truly feels like a fairytale, and you're right, it does come with its challenges-but the beauty of our surroundings makes it all worth it. We're thrilled you enjoyed the wedding pictures and we take pride in the DIY projects. Your support means a lot to us! 😊
Hi, greetings from Christian in Sweden. I found your vlog and has seen a couple of episodes. Nice! Im glad you enjoy Sweden. May I ask why you moved here, and where in Sweden your house is located? North? South? Mid? Have you learnt some swedish yet?

Beautiful….. Did I see a Jonna Jinton ring for your marriage? 🥰
Yes, you spotted it right!😁 That ring holds such a special place in our hearts. Her work is incredible! Thanks for noticing!
@@PikeAndOak I’m ordering my first piece made by Jonna and Johan soon.
Glad to have found your channel too 🧡
Pitty you dont mention WHERE in Sweden this is? I have followed many vlogs of people moving to Sweden, but it seems that you Germans somehow are better suited to do it than many other nationalities. Somehow the cultural and environmental shock is not overwhelming, but managable for you.
I agree
