    Carrie I have been watching you for years and this is my favourite phase. It's so inspiring watching you two. My husband and I bought our first home recently. We're doing so much more on it than we expected and we love it... Although since having our baby house things have slowed a little. I was never someone who knew how to do these things but it's amazing how fast you learn. Life is beautiful.

    I'm from Washington State but have been living overseas for 7 years now. I started for 2 years in NZ (which I'll probably go back to) and have been based in Aussie for the remainder of time. It's so much fun adjusting to new ways of living, lingo, driving, ect. Enjoy the initial stages, it's crazy how quickly you just adapt. It's your new normal after awhile, sometimes I have to pinch myself!

    I lived in Australia for a year and when I tell you I relate so much to everything you’re saying! I had to learn to drive manual while also driving on the left side of the road for the first time. I’m a barber so learning the metric system was critical. The temperature conversion, picking up on the new lingo etc. makes everyday a slight challenge. So worth it!!!

    Thank you for this escape to your beautiful, peaceful homestead! 💗 I look forward to your videos each week. 😍 Looking back, the best decisions I've made are the ones where I trust my instinct and leap without knowing all the details in advance. You are inspiring! It is so fun to follow your journey of learning as you go. ✨

    Hi Carrie, I love the video (getting up in the morning on Tuesdays and Saturdays, sitting down with a chilli hot chocolate and watching your and Alex's videos is my favourite new routine).
    Just wanted to say you and Alex have inspired me to get back into the garden this spring, (I just sat down and ate a salad with all my home grown produce!) So thank you for making such lovely videos week to week, the mindset you both have (learn as you go, do a bit at a time, things take time) has been so encouraging re my gardening journey - thank you for helping me get back into doing a hobby I love 😊

      hey super late comment. But if I want to move to the countryside in the near future (not currently married) is that something that I should take as a dealbreaker (not red flag) if my future spouse don’t agree? Because I have strong reasons why I want this life.

    Keep taking before and after shots, great to look back a year or so later as you kinda forget how much you have done and what it was like before. I often forget what we have managed to do so far, (kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, lounge, decks, driveways, wiring, new walls and gardens, plantings, veggie garden, orchard etc) just like what you guys are starting out on. One other tip if you need to put in new walls say for a bathroom, take photos that show where the wiring and studs are before you cover the frames with gib (plasterboard) so you know where to drill for hanging bathroom vanities etc. If going with floorboards, try get good insulation under them, you will thank yourselves in the winter. Good work so far, and well done to you for learning to drive on the opposite side.

  • @wendywalsh-pardey9439

I’m so excited for you regarding your bathroom! That would make a wonderful Christmas present! Looking forward to seeing how that comes along! Do you guys have a second bathroom to use while the renovations are taking place?.. And, loved seeing you in the orchard. Made me hungry for some fresh cherries! Hehe!

  • @robinhoward4204
    @robinhoward4204 2 роки тому +1

    I think it's a lovely idea to appreciate the wood floors after rejuvenating them. I guess you'll be able to gauge whether you really need carpet when full winter sets in. As a child living in rural south-west Queensland, Australia, we didn't have carpet anywhere, just wood floors and good quality rugs, and our winters were bitterly cold. Back then I thought carpet was the bees knees, now I just love old, characterful wooden floors.

    Those pink flowers are Alstroemeria aurea (Peruvian lily). I have them growing here in Auckland and they can become very thuggish if not carefully controlled.

  • @wiltonnolan4816
    @wiltonnolan4816 8 місяців тому

    My husband, kids, and I (we’re a blended family with 6 kids) are moving from Utah to Texas soon and it’s really scary sometimes. We don’t know a single person there! I’ve moved 40ish times in my life and I’m only 31, but I’ve been living in the same general area of the country for the last 13 years. The last time I made a move this huge was going from Philadelphia to nowheresville Idaho when I was 17, but I was in college and it was so much easier to meet people then. We know it’s the right thing to do but it’s such a huge change. The scenery is different, the weather is different, the people are different, etc. etc.

    Hi Carrie, you'll get there with your driving, hit those Country back roads to build your confidence, have you tried 'Ranui Strawberries' 🍓 so delish and juicy from Julian's berry farm in Whakatane, I reckon you'll love it there and the ice cream is so "yummy" and the other food 'sooo refreshing' and I can't wait for the watermelon 🍉 "yum. I brought me Alstroemeria 'Inca Goal' yesterday, they're a beautiful flower, look absolutely gorgeous in my hanging pots, yours in the vase look like mine, either way they're beautiful 😍 have a wonderful day Carrie

    Hey Carrie. I’m loving your vlogs, loving the difference between yours and Alex’s vlogs. How is Waddles? Have you guys thought about getting goats to keep the grass in the paddocks down? They eat anything and don’t mind the length of the grass, if you put them in the orchard you’ll have to protect the trees in case they start eating the bark. The house looks beautiful, you should be very proud of all you’ve accomplished 😁👍🏽💜
