This is the first of several videos from our most recent trip. There will be more coming as soon as I finish editing, which could take a few weeks each.
I smiled when I saw you had given us an update. It was beautiful. Thank you. I grew emotional at the end as you spoke of what you hope your son gains from this endeavor. Rest assured that he will benefit in all the ways you mentioned. He is the spitting image of me fifty years ago; it's truly uncanny. I too was a biracial Asian-American boy whose family traveled every summer. We mostly took long trips by car, camping in many national parks, but one summer was spent visiting relatives in Malaysia. There is nothing more edifying for a young mind than seeing new places, whether near or far. But what caused the lump in my throat was the much greater gift being bestowed to him, the one which I did not have. My parents were not friends and ours was a household rife with acrimony and great tension. Seeing his parents collaborate in a calm, mutually respectful relationship is in my view the most impactful aspect of his childhood. It is giving him the freedom to breathe comfortably and absorb everything, like every child should. And for that I commend you both. 🫡
I'm two glasses or red in and completely invested. I'm currently doing the same in Molise except my family is not from here. We just wanted to be in Italy for the rest of our time here on earth. It's a long labor of love.
You need a 4x4 vehicle & create a road into your property - first thing ! It's very beautiful ! Remember in the old days they had carts & old 'Dobbin' horses that pulled them - I'm 83 - I spent a week on an old farm in UK as a child & we kids took the milk churns to the roadway for collection thru the fields via Dobbin & the cart ! Dobbin knew what to do without us making any moves, or leading him. It is how they lived in those days - that was around 1948 & that place was VERY rural ! This place reminds me of that time ! Thank you for a great video !
Very interesting to be able to "dig up" your family roots. You are extremely fortunate to have this opportunity. A lot of work but in the end you have preserved family history. I am enjoying your journey with pleasure and thank you for sharing it with us followers. 🌺🍷🌺
There is something wonderful when couples have a common project that forms your future together as a family. As physically straining as it may be, the bond created between you is priceless.
We've been thinking about this a lot recently, how different the lifestyle is in this area. It kind of forces families to learn to understand each other and work together.
I LOVE seeing couples working together on this sort of thing. Congratulations to you both for taking on the challenge yourselves. You have a strong family.
Welcome to Campania! Our storms can be frightening but when the sun shines, there's nothing like being in the mountains. I'm glad you're back. We'll be watching! Thank you for taking us along.
I would do anything to have remained in the home that was on our original homestead, and was in the family for 107 years. Unfortunately, there had been a fire, and the fieldstone and masonry foundation of the home was compromised from the water, and the house was razed. I believe this was owned by the fourth family since we left 67 years ago, but to me, it was the connection to my ancestors, to whom I felt an affinity, and I feel something was lost. The family that owns it now has been thoughtful, considerate, and amazing, inviting Dad and me to see it before it was torn down. I remember finding an arrowhead as a child, and feeling like an interloper, but I loved that land.❤️ I cannot imagine hesitating over inheriting a family home, and see your family as extremely fortunate. Growing up in the country and having dogs is great for kids.
Right on Brother. Beautiful sentiments. Best of luck on your journey. I bought an old property from a relative. I was all day removing old paintt to expose the lime plastered walls. The labour makes the place feel a little more like 'mine', by degrees.
When u get back to the land and the natural elements(as opposed to city), my God, that’s heaven on earth. In my opinion, what a gift to be offered this place!
Really glad to see that you have started posting videos again. Your videography is absolutely stunning and your narration shows great thought and intelligence!! Yes, the rain does slow you down, but the rain is also what enables that incredible scenery. Keep up the hard work and I look forward to seeing more of your restoration and adding life back into the old family property.
Wonder when you can get rock base on your road up the hill, or whatever y'all use in Italy? We have rock base, 1/2inch -1"rock, from the main road to our home here in Texas Hill Country. It is a 400 +foot level road, but without the rock base, it would be a muddy, rut-filled mess.* *We have to add more rock base every 5 years or so. Latest rock base dump was 1/2inch to 1/4" rock, and it has worked best at keeping down dust, no dust actually, during hot summer months w/ no rain.
What an amazing once in a lifetime opportunity. Stunning area and your beautiful child is growing up enjoying the good life climbing trees. Great place to be.
Wow, lots of hard work but it sure looks like in the end it will all be worth your time,work and commitment. The views alone are spectacular and I look forward to following your journey. Best of luck and happy restoration
I was amazed to see you using the very kind of copper pot I'm looking for to make jam for a trash bucket! I'm sure much great food came out of that pot to feed your ancestors. But mostly, I'm grateful that you've chosen to share this part of your journey with us. I wish everyone could discover what you're learning. That's probably part of why you're posting these vlogs. Thank you!
@@gloriasmestad3803Unfortunately the bottom of the pot had holes drilled in it, so it can't be used for cooking unless repaired. Instead, I use it for holding kindling. It actually belonged to my father and didn't come from Italy. He bought it, along with the large copper cauldron, while he was working in Sweden in the 90s. Whoever sold it to him was selling it as a flower pot. He died years ago. The house is from my mother's family. I brought these copper pots and a few other items to have some trace of his memory here. You'll also notice that I'm using a copper pot for mortar mixing sometimes. That one was recovered here, but it had been used for mixing cement in the past (there's portland cement residue stuck to it) and was badly dented so I will just keep using it for mortar. The nice copperware, 3mm tinned pots and such, were purchased by myself. I am also a fan of copper cookware and have immense respect for it.
@@gloriasmestad3803 No worries, just explaining the back story behind those items since they're important to me :). I will talk about it more in video form at some point.
18:18 you got a new sub, with thanks mindset. That’s a great way of looking at things. People don’t understand the ghost that can be set in the beginning of things.
First ... envious :) Second ... envious ... of that view! My word :) I don't envy the work that will be required to bring that lovely house back to life as a home but, one day, you will be able to relax within and float on that cloud of deep satisfaction that *you* made it happen.
Working on your dream, looks like lovely and charming project. I love italy and would love to have the opportunity like this. best of luck construction work is rewarding and challenging at the same time. cheers
I find it incredible that you went to your family property, my family also from Italy but I have no record of their former property at all. Great seeing you guys making a go at restoration of such a beautiful place.❤
I can tell how you say that your family means everything. Keep up with what you are both doing. I will continue to cheer you on from here in Nova Scotia, Canada. I am cheering you on.
You’re constant sighing says it all; this isn’t a easy task.. it takes a lot of learning and hard work… but ones you slowly progress you will find a lot pleasure in knowing you did it for you and the next generations to come… ironically you’re grandparents left for a better future, and now you return for one. In the same place generations before worked and lived… it’s a beautiful thing to own that house and land!
The roots and the future, nice project, I’m doing the same it’s my footprint in preservation of my grand mother’s old house in Portugal. Good lock am enjoy.
Des paysages grandioses! Quel panorama impressionnant! Such beautiful escapes! And the 🔥 fire place! So confort! Please, excuse my mistakes. My first language is French! You have many skills. Go a head!
Had been eagerly awaiting another of your videos for so long--this one was fantastic! Truly engaging, excellent film making--looking forward to the next. Thanks for sharing!
Great to see your back to the beautiful area& how the weather slowed you down in Italy…..! It seems reaching out to you as you are to it. Happiness& Good Health to you all. Thank you for sharing this adventure of change.
I remember watching the vlog when you were cutting down the tree....and I wondered recently if I had missed any more vlogs. So glad to see this one! Your filming is so beautiful. Very calming. You have a beautiful family and I love how you both are teaching your son through doing, and seeing and exploration. Your words are inspiring and very touching. Making the choice to restore your family's home is a wonderful thing, although it will be very hard work ! Best of luck ! Looking forward to more vlogs.
You’ve really kept us waiting and it was well worth it. Great job again and I’m looking forward to more. I like your pacing and introspection Cheers from Memphis
So much more than the typical 21st-century fixer-upper show, this is a picturesque vignette of a great-grandson and his family connecting to their heritage tangibly and with respect and love. Your authentic methods of true restoration of your farmhouse seem metaphoric, somehow, of the restoration of lost heritage, and the rain and panoramas of the land and sky fit into that as well. Sharing this with us is a gift. Thank you.
The copper pot was probably used by grandma. Can’t wait to see the rest of your trip and accomplishments. What a blessing and gift. I remember the tree and how scary it was but you accomplished it. Get all trees removed around your house as they just come back to haunt you when they’re close.
That’s a beautiful copper pot you’ve been using. Use it with honor, take care to preserve it, so it’s going to be a part of your decor in some special way, it’s such a treasure ❤. Hi I’m new to your channel, just peeking in simply because it came up in my scrolling, it looks promising, I might peek in again to see how you’re progressing, best of all things you’re trying to accomplish especially the part where you’re learning about yourself, your family and how you want your journey to go and be meaningful for your future and your children’s future, be blessed in all love, kindness and service to others as you return it to others ❤.
What a wonderful opportunity to inherit your family home and land. So nice you've looked into how the house can be restored. Looking forward to watching your journey
Bello vedere il nipote di Italiani che hanno lasciato il proprio paese a causa della povertà, ritorni a far rivivere quei posti e con cosi tanto rispetto senza stravolgere niente. I paesi cosi non si spopolerebbero, vorrei ci fossero piu persone cosi, bravi 😊
Congrats ! Very good to see your passion . I do the same with my heritage house from my greatgrandparents . All of my heart in the job just like you do . The feeling is uplifting to restore a piece of history of our family . I hope you will enjoy every day your journey ! In bocca al Lupo ! 🤌🤌🤌
Great to see another episode, looking forward to more, they're top quality! I'm not off grid, but I've been working remotely from out in the countryside for a long while, it's a great way to live, though sometimes work can get in the way of all the things I can see need to be done out on the land. Fantastic way for the kids to grow up as well! Good luck with it all.
Bravo! You did a Fantastic job in making this video. I spent about 10 weeks in Rome and Traviso, but while in Rome, i had a strong sensation I was meant to be there. Now I am building a position as too living somewhere around Florence, and buy another possibly in Sicily to spent to during the winter months.
Im just catching up with your videos. Remember to wet the area your putting mortar on and the stone as well. It keeps the stone from sucking up the moisture from the lime mortar and possibly failing prematurely. 😊
Salute.....I guess the first thing that comes up from watching and listening is.... you and your family are courageous. Thank you for your honesty and sharing the experience. My family came from Anzi in Basilicata. I've applied for citizenship and still unsure whether I will make the move. Be well.
What a really well made vídeo!!! I love it!! You guys will have a wonderful live in this place and your son will have great memories from his childhood… Wishing the best!!!!
Beautiful house! I have a similar waterway on my land. From a spring, it rises above me , mostly underground but part open . I couldn't make a water feature or divert it as it feeds all the farm land along it's way.
I would have one question: what measures do you take to prevent all stones from falling over you in case of earthquake? Great job, love it! Thanks for sharing.
This is the first of several videos from our most recent trip. There will be more coming as soon as I finish editing, which could take a few weeks each.
Take your time, these vlogs are so meaningful for many of us and your very intentional words and filming is greatly appreciated.
I smiled when I saw you had given us an update. It was beautiful. Thank you.
I grew emotional at the end as you spoke of what you hope your son gains from this endeavor. Rest assured that he will benefit in all the ways you mentioned.
He is the spitting image of me fifty years ago; it's truly uncanny. I too was a biracial Asian-American boy whose family traveled every summer. We mostly took long trips by car, camping in many national parks, but one summer was spent visiting relatives in Malaysia.
There is nothing more edifying for a young mind than seeing new places, whether near or far.
But what caused the lump in my throat was the much greater gift being bestowed to him, the one which I did not have. My parents were not friends and ours was a household rife with acrimony and great tension.

IS A BEAUTIFUL PLACE, SO TRANQUIL, YOU ARE SO FORTUNATE TO HAVE A PLACE IN THE COUNTRY. THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR SPACE. GREETINGS FROM TEXAS. 🤠👍

Finally! Somebody using lime mortar instead of porland cement for restoring an ancient house.
check out atelier mavi's reno. they're doing the lord's work.
Such a privilege to have inherited a gift from the past!
I inherited a gift from the future, not so priviliged
I'm two glasses or red in and completely invested. I'm currently doing the same in Molise except my family is not from here. We just wanted to be in Italy for the rest of our time here on earth. It's a long labor of love.
Welcome
Advice for me wanting to do same?
That cast iron Dutch oven/stew pot is priceless!

Nothing like a wonderful thunderstorm. I love them 😍 Your very fortunate to have a legacy property in Italy.

Wellcome back to Italy ...and all the best to you all. We need families like your to keep our countryside alive.

Beautifully shot. It's a noble mission, a grand opportunity. Stay strong.
Nice to see you back and making progress.
Your son is a very lucky young man! You are very thoughtful awesome parents!

Ancient dust like that can be deadly !!! Please remember to always protect your eyes , hearing , lungs , & hands & feet !!! Safety is no joke !!!
indeed
It's a lovely house with beautiful vistas, hoping you will all enjoy bringing it back to life.... back to where it began.
These last words of the video gave me... chills. In a good way.
Bellissimo...

Very nice sharing-you do a great story while talking on the video.
You questioned your inheritance? Consider yourself a very lucky bastard. I mean that in the most kindest way.😎

sir is a new models of living pioneer. not just internet but eventually hyper mobility too when drones become useful for deliveries
When you lay tiles don't forget to wet it, as you wet the floor. Another suggestion, use more water to wet the floor.
Wonderful place ! 😍
What you are doing now will benefit your child in ways you couldn't imagine.
Personally, I would want to move there full-time.
