The idea of sitting out in your new outdoor area with a cup of coffee while you overlook the waking of the day in your village sounds like a perfect way to start any day. You and future generations will be thankful for the hard work it took to bring this to life.
Isn’t that the truth our team helping us have a wicked humor … they are part of us so a spitting image of our own humor 👌 good thing to remember when we feel challenged 😅😂
Who would have believed an almost 80 year old lady from Canada would enjoy seeing a young man building his house in the foothills of the Italian alps! When you climb up behind the house in the early days of starting, I would say, "Be careful, son!" So, I have adopted your family 😂! I am so proud of what you are doing for your family. May God bless you abundantly! I will be joining you for your first coffee in front of the new fireplace in due course 😂. In the meantime, I will continue to cheer you on! Happy building this week 😊!
You really don't see at Canada stuff like this isn't and you dont see jobs like this olso becouse worker at Canada don't will do nothing like this ,because that don't bring money to builders
I really admire how much you have integrated into the community and your language skills. The project is coming along so well now. I could never have imagined it when you first started out.
Please tell the young man that is helping you build with stone that we think he is doing an excellent job and we appreciate all the work he is doing. Good bless you all.
First time to comment on your channel. Exceptional work Brad and as I’m old enough to be your father I can say your parents must be so proud of you. Best wishes from Wales.
FYI- One of the neatest things you do as a part of the process, is bringing coffee to the hired help. That shows how much you value them, and by now, they that were the help, have become friends. Your family's decency shows.
Just imagine Brady, 100 years from now, maybe 200, there will be someone looking over the work you did here in amazement and awe. What a nice feeling of positive impact you must feel. God Bless!
@@patjutras6627 My grandfather was a stone mason and he too, was from Michigan! So I guess it's a trade that's passed on through good apprenticeship and desire.
I reckon we are all continually in awe of yourself and Allessio's skills with the stonework and yes, it is so relaxing, almost meditative to watch! Your videos always seem to be finished in a jiffy! I hope you are both well rested each morning to start the day again. Riveting viewing, well done.
Watching y'all build has helped us make a decision, If we decide to leave America, we want to move there. It's so beautiful, we homestead, so we know we could do that there. My husband likes the way of life the alps can provide our family. So Thank you for giving us tge opportunity to see so much of your lives as you build a new for your family in another country.
Aloha All, All Italian craftsmen whom have been contributing art extremely capable. the owner is industrious & evidently a superb father. This "barn" will be a masterpiece which will endure for centuries as a testament to this man's will to create a beautiful home which is located in a stunning setting! Kudos to ALL! Aloha
I‘ve been watching from the beginning. To be honest, I thought of you as dreamers first. But now all is coming together . Congratulations, I am looking forward to you finally moving in. Best wishes !
You have a ton of patience!! Love the wall but wow, so much work but a beautiful results!! Love watching the progress, can’t wait to see how the house comes out!!
Brady said if you are new here is a recap of the outdoor area. If you are new you need to go back and watch this series from the beginning. I look forward to Sunday mornings and seeing the progress!
Bradley I think 2 of the most important things that you have done with this whole build is first of all to learn Italian (of which you seem quite fluent) and secondly but most importantly was to be a labourer (UK spelling you colonial) for the trades and then work alongside them showing respect and learning from them. Stay safe, see you next week
Brady it's good idea to embed the centre stone on a top of the fireplace with 2025 engraving anyway time passing by and people that will live in 2525 get know when it was built, and will appreciate it.
Brady, you have gotten very good at shaping the stones and it is fascinating to watch the process. This is going to be a beautiful home and I’m honored to be watching it change week by week. Take care, stay safe. Oh, I forgot, I am so happy to see you wearing a mask when you are making the cement, saving your lungs!
Yours is my favorite of all the house videos I watch. Just the sound of chisel to stone is soothing and to watch your excitement grow warms my heart. Your family must be just starry eyed over such a man as you.
Brady I give you immense kudos for having the drive to learn, process and build in order to have your dream home come to life under your own hands and those of talented craftspeople. Heather and the girls have experienced so much 🎉🎉🎉
This is one’s hunger for beauty and vast of imagination that endure hard work to create a masterpiece. Hardworking dreamers like you are the progressive force of human civilization. Especially here in Italy, your radiant enthusiasm reflects on its eternal heritage, Da Vinci could be your good friend if you happened to meet.
Bless you and your peoples for what you are enduring thru those fires and changes. May you find peace and all that you need, the world is going thru this all together. I find quietly focusing inside on what most matters helps.
I know you are working hard and your talents have improved considerably. There are benefits to working hard and eventually you will be able to sit back with a cold drink or a glass of wine in your hand and what you created with your hands for you and your family will bring you great joy. I guarantee it.
I can't wait to see your kitchen and bath come together. I especially love fixtures ..... You and your team have done a spectacular job creating a comfortable and beautiful home. Bravo ! Can't wait to see you and the family relaxing by your fires.
We in my Anglo-Italian household have been watching you from pretty close to the beginning. Amazing progress. Puzzled as to why you are doing this before final fit … but I’m guessing you have your reasons! Keep on, the place is looking beautiful, you Italian is amazing and you work so hard. Respect!
He mentioned several times the weather is a factor. I don't blame him at all; I can't work outdoors in the heat! This is all speculation on my part, but I think this work may have been done while the family was in the states for the holidays, so maybe he wants Heather there for the last-minute questions that inevitably come up when fitting kitchens and baths. Getting all the work done on that side of the property means they won't have to drive large equipment past the house, which I imagine would be dirty and disruptive (and potentially destructive) while they're living there. It also could be a matter of crew availability, or materials, or money. (He is paying one person, plus buying sand and cement. It's probably MUCH cheaper than any other project they have left to do!) They've also mentioned using their new home as a base for their travel business, so I imagine the outdoor space would be high on the priority list. They previously discussed hosting gatherings there as a starting point for tours.
Your stone working skills have really improved a lot over the past several months. The fireplace looks really beautiful. Love how everything is coming along.
Generations to come, will tell the story of how this Ancestral home came about, and Brady will be the Protagonist 😊 So incredibly proud of how far you've come. ❤
I am surprised you’re not finishing the house first. There was so much progress on it and it’s so close to being moved into now, but something must’ve halted the indoor work I assume. Can’t wait to see the kitchen and bathrooms finished!
Yeah, I can imagine how beautiful it will all look when you're finished. Can't wait to see it blazing as you greet the sunrise with your fresh cup of coffee.
The large square "yellow" church in some of your shots, looks like a Waldensian Temple. The people who built it, waaayy back in the day were my ancestors. They lived in the Italian Alpine Valleys of Piedmont, Lombardy, near the borders of France and Switzerland
Bill, I am related by marriage to the Waldesians. We live in the Valdese, NC area. That is where they first settled all those years ago. This area is beautifully emersed in their history and rich culture. You should visit the Waldesians museum. There is a festival every August. There are many stone buildings and some barn like structures very similar to this one. Excellent stone masonry. There is a exquisite stone Presbyterian church in the center of the small town. Families lived in top floor and livestock lived in bottom floor of the very rustic barn structures. So similar to what we've seen here.
The weather where you are seems pretty perfect! So impressed how much work you are putting in but wow the results are stunning! And the views from there never get old.
This is amazing. Bellissimo! I have so many questions: Do curious villagers come up to see the progress? Have you learned how to swear in Italian? Can the girls speak Italian Yet? What is happening with your visas? Do you still have to leave the country for periods of time? The goats. The goats…. Thanks!
@MaryMac199 Well, I sorta knew . That is not Her Handle , not sure she watches over in San Francisco, I'm in Cork City, and Pleased to see a familiar Name. Have a Grand Day.
I have been watching for over a year now, you are coming down from the crescendo of this project and now it is almost entirely esthetics, which is much more fun. I have so much respect for what you and your family are doing!! As a fellow midwesterner, I can appreciate a work ethic but you are quite exceptional. Hang in there, and remember goats only live about 20 years!!! 🐐🐐😆
That wall is looking fabulous. You may not have passed your exams twice but I bet you have done wonders compared to the ones who passed. Cannot believe that on your day off you go hiking and climbing so you’re mad in a nice way-lol.
At the end of the stonework series, you should end the video like ironman in Endgame. The banging of the hammer to metal, or in your case stone. I am living vicariously through you. You are doing exactly what I wanted to when I was your age. Thank you for your videos. I can't wait to see it all done.
The craftsmanship that has gone into this whole process is amazing. Every single stone is thought out and considered. Very cool to imagine building something that you know is going to survive for generations.
Impressive work Impressive quality Impressive eye for details Impressive work ethics of your craftsmen and you…. You documenting it all for current viewers and future inhabitants 👍🏻
I like the hiking photos. All work and no play…all that work has paid off as it’s looking like the additional structures always existed. I’m certain the outdoor fireplace will look that way, too. This comment started with a remark about an image of something other than the work on the house and property, I’ll end it by saying I enjoyed the closing night shots of the two churches. Actually, I’m always curious about those churches. I would love for Heather and the girls to give us a tour of the village.
That wall and firebox are absolutely stunning.I mean who doesn’t love a brick wall,and your wall is a GREAT wall. I’m looking forward to seeing it progress.
Brady, watching you shape the stones has a meditative quality… the irony of your Geology experience in academia with your work now just goes to show you never know where your passions will take you! You are definitely a hands-on learner! 😊
Brady, you flunked geology 2x & ended up working with stone - ironic, yes. I flunked math 2x then ended up drafting for a living years ago - using the math I flunked out of. Funny how these things happen huh? I am retired now but ended up being a caregiver for those who need help both in their homes & private facilities. Serving others was more rewarding. ❤ Well done pal. You have a LOT to be proud of, all round. You have a beautiful wife, daughters & now working on a beautiful home in a beautiful place. You are blessed & I wish you & Heather even more blessings going forward. ❤ Much love 🥰🙏🏼🙏🏼🇨🇦
Everything you do is perfection! I can picture waking before the birds, coffee in hand, sitting in a comfy chair out on your patio & waiting for the 1st birds of the day singing good morning! Maybe a part of your magical morning routine would be to keep a short journal of the new day's wild life activity. Then enjoy the reverse in the evenings, with a beverage to sip, relaxing & gaze at the stars .
I am going to call a cement truck company in Italy today; must have cement pump! Amazed at the daily effort, process and journey towards the family goal!
I totally relate to your geology story! I was a solid student as well, but failed economics once, and very nearly twice, in college. Forty years on, and I've worked in financial services for two decades. The universe teaching us a lesson, I reckon.
Aww thank you so much for sharing this beautiful journey with us and I can’t wait until everything is done with i hope that you guys give us a tour of the new home
😂😂 I'm glad you've acquired knowledge and appreciation for geology!! Cool climbing course!! The scenic photography in your videos is amazing!!! Gee whiz!!! How many bags of concrete and loads of sand have you used to transform this home? You all have worked so hard and long and are inspiring!!! Thanks for sharing. God bless you all!!!❤❤❤
I would think this dream is only something found in books. You’ve brot it to life. The colors, sounds, textures, everything & it’s visually stunning. I’ve said it before, bc I have a similar calling, I’ve built many things, none like this. you are not a prideful man but you must feel a sense of it whenever you see what you’re creating. Strabiliante!
Just a thought regarding nutrition - you are in one of the best places in Europe to get good full of bio available nutrition food. Better than convenient shakes on a go. Love you guys❤
Hello from Sweden🇸🇪 - (Småland-Jönköpingslän) 🤗 I love your videos!!! I look every Sunday 😍🤗 I have seen every video from this house project 😍❤️ And I love it!!!! You are fantastic and have a very talent to fix things!
Hi Brady. I've been watching since the beginning like so many people here. Watching from Alberta, Canada. The amount of work you have done is just staggering really. I'm such a numbers nerd that I'd be interested to know (roughly) how many stones have been hand hewn .... probably thousands. What an amazing gift you have given us all by videoing and memorializing for all time the work that has gone into your labour of love. I can't wait to see the end but truly love seeing the entire process. My family and I look forward to your videos every week. All the best to you, the family and the other craftsmen who have contributed.
That was a great school story! I wonder if any of ur teachers are watching!! Who knew u would end up here!! That wall is so beautiful and ur doing a great job on those rocks it's going to be a show stoper! I would love to see it from the bottom of that Hill!!?😮😮😮😮😮❤❤
I could watch this all day long! Love the stone work and colors are spectacular...I would hang out there all day long! I love anything to do with stones and rocks. ❤
The idea of sitting out in your new outdoor area with a cup of coffee while you overlook the waking of the day in your village sounds like a perfect way to start any day. You and future generations will be thankful for the hard work it took to bring this to life.
and lets not forget our goat friend,... I'm sure he/she will be enjoying the beautiful addition to his/her backyard as well !! 😂🤣😂🌿🐐🍀🍀🍀🍀🐐🌿

That Italian guy helping you with stonework is amazing professional. Watching him work is so pleasant, he makes it look simple.
True Professional Stone master
@@frenchfan1278 that guy is a professional. Maybe have a segment eventually showing his other projects.
It’s great to watch the stonemason, a true professional. It would be nice to introduce him to us, to hear his story of how he learned his skills x
I admire both, but it´s true that guy seems to never lose his focus. Not even phased by coffee. :D
I recon too
Considering your block in Geology, God has a wicked sense of humor❤

I am almost in 80 year old lady from the USA and I look forward to the weekly posts on the construction of this house.
Who would have ever thought that watching two guys hammer stones could be so entertaining. You're making a masterpiece. Love it.
@@davidross976 hammer? I think the term is dress or work the stone.
Everytime I watch an episode I am finding my self stunned about the amount of work and the determination you just show us. And it looks beutiful.
It is so funny when you give us an Italian word when speaking forgetting English. As an army brat I really appreciate that challenge.
Oh yes, please, bring that camera with you on hikes and out & about in town. Great stuff
I really admire how much you have integrated into the community and your language skills. The project is coming along so well now. I could never have imagined it when you first started out.

@@patjutras6627or it’ll still be in the family and they will know the full history.
@patjutras6627 to be fair, it appears it's the Italians teaching him the art.
And it's Absolutely Gorgeous
@@patjutras6627 My grandfather was a stone mason and he too, was from Michigan! So I guess it's a trade that's passed on through good apprenticeship and desire.
@@patjutras6627 It's both.
Those guys will be signing you up to their company!
I reckon we are all continually in awe of yourself and Allessio's skills with the stonework and yes, it is so relaxing, almost meditative to watch! Your videos always seem to be finished in a jiffy! I hope you are both well rested each morning to start the day again. Riveting viewing, well done.
The stone masons concentration on the job is admirable. Looks like you are a great hard working team. Hope he enjoys the work as much as you do.
You are becoming quite skilled stone Mason, laying and chipping away at those stones to get exactly what you need and want… beautiful
I found a coffee pot just like yours and bought it for our boat! Why don't you use the filtered water when making coffee?💜💛💜

Like meditation, prayer, therapy, isn’t it?
Brady said if you are new here is a recap of the outdoor area. If you are new you need to go back and watch this series from the beginning. I look forward to Sunday mornings and seeing the progress!
Bradley I think 2 of the most important things that you have done with this whole build is first of all to learn Italian (of which you seem quite fluent)
and secondly but most importantly was to be a labourer (UK spelling you colonial) for the trades and then work alongside them showing respect and learning from them.
Stay safe, see you next week
❤we miss seeing your family especially Heather's awesome smile
Me too. When I first stared watching I really enjoyed the family interaction. Where's Heather..missing her face that smiles.
Good morning from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. I love watching your home come together.
Brady it's good idea to embed the centre stone on a top of the fireplace with 2025 engraving anyway time passing by and people that will live in 2525 get know when it was built, and will appreciate it.
I always hate to see your videos come to an end. I just want to see more and more of your projects. Thank you for each and every one of your videos.
Brady, you have gotten very good at shaping the stones and it is fascinating to watch the process. This is going to be a beautiful home and I’m honored to be watching it change week by week. Take care, stay safe. Oh, I forgot, I am so happy to see you wearing a mask when you are making the cement, saving your lungs!
Dude, your arm strength is impressive. Swinging a full size sledgehammer over your head is hard core workout! No gym membership required for you! Lol
Im exhausted from all the hard work and im only watching!

😂😂 I'm glad you've acquired knowledge and appreciation for geology!! Cool climbing course!! The scenic photography in your videos is amazing!!!
Gee whiz!!! How many bags of concrete and loads of sand have you used to transform this home? You all have worked so hard and long and are inspiring!!! Thanks for sharing. God bless you all!!!❤❤❤
The wall and fireplace looks great . Can't. wait till your next post.
Great effort in building that great wall🌞🌞🌞👏👏👏
The outdoor fireplace is going to look amazing when it's finished! I hope you will be making lots of 'smores in it.
Good morning Exeter USA here.
Assisto todos os seus vídeos. Sua casa está ficando muito muito bonita. Parabéns.🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷
Your wall is just beautiful! The fireplace will be so wonderful.
I am just blown away with this huge project! Thank you sooooo much!🦌💌❤️🔨
I would think this dream is only something found in books. You’ve brot it to life. The colors, sounds, textures, everything & it’s visually stunning. I’ve said it before, bc I have a similar calling, I’ve built many things, none like this. you are not a prideful man but you must feel a sense of it whenever you see what you’re creating. Strabiliante!
Thank you Heather for all your editing. Love to you and the girls from a Grandma in Florida. 😊
Just a thought regarding nutrition - you are in one of the best places in Europe to get good full of bio available nutrition food. Better than convenient shakes on a go. Love you guys❤
Outdoor lighting on that retaining wall would be beautiful and add perfect ambiance
The wall is already looking beautiful!

Hi Brady. I've been watching since the beginning like so many people here. Watching from Alberta, Canada. The amount of work you have done is just staggering really. I'm such a numbers nerd that I'd be interested to know (roughly) how many stones have been hand hewn .... probably thousands. What an amazing gift you have given us all by videoing and memorializing for all time the work that has gone into your labour of love. I can't wait to see the end but truly love seeing the entire process. My family and I look forward to your videos every week. All the best to you, the family and the other craftsmen who have contributed.
That was a great school story! I wonder if any of ur teachers are watching!! Who knew u would end up here!! That wall is so beautiful and ur doing a great job on those rocks it's going to be a show stoper! I would love to see it from the bottom of that Hill!!?😮😮😮😮😮❤❤
I could watch this all day long! Love the stone work and colors are spectacular...I would hang out there all day long! I love anything to do with stones and rocks. ❤
