Hi friends 🌲 I tried something new this time with a very slow and simple intro, what did you think about it? 😊If you want to see even more of my content I have three new bonus videos over at Nebula, which you can get access to for 26% off here: curiositystream.com/?coupon=kalleflodin Completely optional, but it really helps this channel out a ton. Thanks you ❤
Loved the intro Kalle!! So calm and beautiful. And Im so excited about your little studio cabin! Such a beautiful design, its going to be epic! And I totally relate to you. Having your own space and time is soooo important! 👍🏻❤️
This was one of your best videos Kalle! The beginning was absolutely wonderful😍✨Loved how you put together the sounds and video clips and the guitar playing!!🙌🏻👏🏻❤️ Totally understand the me-bucket!! I think it will be healthy for you both to get enough me-time! Thank you for your great work with these videos, they are very much appreciated! Sylvia & Lobo 🙋🏼♀️🐺
I'm a huge fan of the guitar, it was lovely to hear your playing :-) I came back home from work, saw there is a new video and started watching straight away haha. An amazing as always and very inspiring :-)) Never tried 🥝 with the skin! Me space is such a great idea, I look forward to seeing its progress :-) Much love, Oriana 🌸
I totally get the concept of the me bucket. I’m a stay so I’m always surrounded by my family. My husband works full time and we rarely just get time to ourselves. Don’t get me wrong, it’s nice when we have time together, but sometimes that me time is what we all need to unwind. We’re in the slow going process of building a house and I love when I can just have half an hour to myself to just sit out and enjoy nature. I think it soothes the soul and helps us find more calm in the craziness of our days. Another lovely video. Your guitar playing is so soothing.
I love the ambience created by your guitar as you went about your day at your cabin. I got a chuckle over the Swinger's pond of frogs that appeared after the frog's mating call. Hilarious! Also it's not selfish that you need your own space (bucket time) in order to recharge your batteries. As an introvert I need this too. Enjoy your man cave! Jenny
Very good video, I appreciate your way of editing and recording your videos, they transport me to your property, I loved it, what an interesting day to day... greetings!
Loved this new format you are doing. You are flowing with your energy. Blessings to the 4 of you!! Keep up the guitar! There is a gold mine there for you ☀️♥️🙌
Of all your videos, I enjoyed this one the most. Perfect harmony between sound effects, music, content and videography. Well done. Looking forward to the next one
I had no idea that "The Cottage Fairy's" brother was so involved in film work. I know she had mentioned him from time to time, and that he had helped her to take her own videos to the next level, but I must have somehow missed any further information on him. Sounds like a very interesting interview and I would love to hear more! Your own video here is so beautiful by the way. You get those amazing shots and really know how to work a camera. And no, you are not selfish. You are smart. As an INFJ, and an HSP, I can definitely understand the need for alone time to be better able to give something positive of yourself to others. What you are doing is very psychologically healthy and wise. Thank you for sharing! 💚
Rohan's UA-cam channel is called "Letters from Ro", and he has so many beautiful and calming videos there. He's definitely a very talented filmmaker and storyteller ... and singer ... and speaker ... the list goes on. 😅 A very talented young man. 💚🌲
@@thebalancingkiwi Thank you kindly! I will have to check it out. It sounds really interesting. I tried to search for him but could not find anything, so I am glad you shared that with me. Thank you again! :-)
LOVED all the time with just the sounds of nature, the activities (chopping wood, measuring oats, etc) and your music - very little talking - beautiful! ❤️🌿🌞
I can really understand your need of the „me bucket“ . I need that me-time too. That´s why I am so happy that I have a little tiny cabin for me alone half an hour drive from our cottage. It´s so needed and wonderful to spend me-time from time to time. Btw: Kalle, you are really good in film making! Nice guitar music🌲
For me the bucket is a "battery" :) I am literally going through exactly the same process of building more space for my boyfriend so we can both have our "me" times. I think everyone needs it a little at least but introverts definitely need it more I think.
“What the snow hides, spring uncovers”… maybe something like that? I’m in love with your channel, your family and your videos. I discovered you just a few days ago and I’ve been watching (and liking!) nonstop since then, starting from the very beginning (and in Swedish). It’s really inspiring!!
Hi Kalle ...Your video was amazing ...the scenery was breathtaking. It was very peaceful to watch . You are following your Soul . Many Blessings...💯💖💖💖🌟🌟🌟🌟
Great video, Kalle. We loved the intro! We paused to talk about our buckets, which also is something we have been working on in our relationship. And so cool that you prioritize which projects you take on yourself and which ones you delegate to other skilled people. All the best, Annie & Julian
Thank you for sharing so much of your days with us. I loved the guitar music it made me tear up as my son would play guitar and he has now moved overseas, it is so important to take time out for yourself, how can we be functioning parts of society and survive other wise. I wish you well in your endevours, It will be fantastic to see the addition one day, keep doing what you are doing and may both you and Christina be blessed.
Wow - when we had our place out in the timber don’t think I ever tossed/burned any lumber (6:00). Stacked it somewhere - never know when those scraps can be useful. You have a beautiful home and your videography is phenomenal.
Hi Kalle, you made a very pleasant video. Thank you. Calm and nevertheless you do transfer a lot of energy. I’d love to see and hear more of you playing the guitar. The “Me bucket” topic is so true and important. Sometimes hard to stick to. Everyone needs, more or less, to act autonomously for being ready to interact again with others. That’s not selfish, it’s necessary to stay mentally strong. I wish you all the best for your studio cabin project. 🌲🌲
You have to fill your own bucket first before you can fill others. It totally make sense. This is why I have a van so no matter where I go, I have my own space to be quiet, creative or to rest. Looking forward to seeing your new creative space, Kalle!
wonderful. peaceful. beautiful. a perfect antidote to the new reports we are bombarded with 24/7. and you are so lucky to have the frogs in your pond, i haven't had any in mine for years, they are endangered here. sending you❤️
Loved the intro, very gentle and enjoyable... :) I think it's important to have a "me-bucket". Mine is very basic at the moment, mostly focusing on the simple thing that my most essential physical needs are met, as I need to seriously take care of two people close to me right now and I am only used to be a care giver for one person... I can also really relate to the challenges a small shared living space creates. We are living in a flat of about the same size as your cabin and that for the last 5 years with my partner being disabled...and us both beings artists with a lot of stuff we need to create...we can't afford any extra space, but if we could we would totally go for a solution just like the one you chose! :) I hope your 2nd cabin gets finished soon, so that you can both benefit from having this essential separate extra room - I am sure it will be a game-changer. All the best :)
Oh MY GOSH! I love when my youtube muses collide! I don't live very far from Paola. I adore her aesthetic and demeanor which is one of the reasons I love what you are doing. Thank you for the continued inspiration and I can hardly wait to see what you and Kristina (SP?) grow into in the next year.
For my partner and me it was the best decition to seperate rooms as well. We decided to rent an apartment with one more room so each of us has their own 'room' and srsly. It helped so much to get more together and enjoy time together. So i can truely understand why you do this and that is has nothing to do with 'loving' someone less than before. It is the opposite. It is helping both to breath.
I love it, Kalle🙏 Only when we feel good, embodying the Love and Joy, we can spread the good vibrations to others, so taking care of oneself is truly the priority🙏✨🧚🏼♂️
I love the image of the overflowing bucket, I resonate strongly with alone time. Just occupy our space and breathe. I hope this will help you both get a boost of creativity and clarity of mind. 😊 Then you can finally finish the roof 😜
Thank you Kalle for such a beautiful video. I've been following your channel for a little while now and sometimes your videos move me to tears because they really touch my heart! I am super inspired by you and Cristina's journey. I send you both so much love from Australia xxx
Having a Me-bucket is so very important. Me and my partner travel the world so we’re also always together for everything and me-time has definitely been key to us living this way
What an AMAZING video! I am so glad you were able to get this beauty up. The music was great as well. It was so soothing and the best thing to inspire me for the workday.
Hey! I'm pretty sure I've heard something very similar as your bucket theory - just with glasses instead. If my own glass gets empty, and isn't filled up, there is nothing we can keep giving to others. The best case scenario is that the glass (or bucket) is overflowing, because that way we give to others from our own motivation - we enjoy it. If we decide to give for example from half filled glass, it doesn't feel very good - we are giving what we need to keep for ourselves. It's something like sharing one slice of bread when you haven't eaten for two days. It is usually giving not because we want to, but because it is expected of us, or because it's our duty. If that makes sense... (I think I heard it in a psychology seminar and also in protestant church)
Having a Me-Bucket isn't selfish at all, Kalle. It's funny in a sad way that you explained so easily what was/is going on in my life recently... having that picture of the buckets in mind i can now clearly see how empty my own bucket is (it's slowly filling up now) and how that effects my relationship. Thank your for that friendly reminder that it's okay to take time and space for myself ♥
I love that song you wrote! It seems like it made the video whole if that makes sense, because it's all you. And I think the man cave project is really cool, for some reason A-frames seem extra cozy! It's definitely not selfish to make sure your "me bucket" is filled. My boyfriend and I are often stuck in the same room since we live in a city apartment, and while we love spending time together we wish we had our own spaces to go to (we're working on it 😅) Can't wait to listen to the new podcast with Rohan!
My husband and I are in the same place, we also work together. So when one of us needs some space, we just say I need a mental health day. You get to do anything you want, all by yourself! It works. 💜
Thank you for sharing your life with us all Kalie. You two are so blessed to have each other. I understand what you are saying Kalie about the buckets. Now to me: I don’t have a home right now. Do dream of having one somewhere someday.
I really loved this intro style! It reminded me of how it felt to watch you in your earlier videos when it was just you and your puppy living in the woods. Very peaceful and lovely 💗💗
Just amazing!! thank you Kalle! your videas are getting better and better!! And great song too, you've a lot of talent! congrats man!! As always, the best! 💚🌲
The swimming club seems buisy! Are there any places left? hahaha, I loved this video! And while I was watching it my father who was passing by (he's a luthier and a musician) told me: who is this? Oh, the sound he expresses with the guitar is beautiful and clear! And I agree! Have a lovely week!
I loved the beginning of this video, just the sounds of the tasks you were doing and your guitar, no talking... it was very calming! And I agree with a lot of people in the comments here, taking "me time" is not selfish. I have always felt the same way and I disliked that I sometimes felt selfish or guilty for it, but in reality, it's other people that make us feel that way, because they may not understand or are caught up in society standards. Saying that ourself comes first and then the others and needing time alone, doesen't mean we don't care about our loved ones 😊 Being alone and spending me time is probably one of my favourite things to do, because that's when I feel the most connected to myself.
You described this "bucket thing" perfectly. I don't think either that this is a selfish thing to think about. Everyone needs the chance to be only by her/his self. 💫
I loooved every second of this video !!! It was so inspiring. And about the 'me bucket'. I understand you completely. I want my own room in our new house. It feels also selfish or something and strange in a weird way. That if I less love my partner, but I know that isn't the case at all. Life is so busy, I need my own little space where I can be me with my own thoughts. Then I have the energy back to be a great wife (if a may say so hihi) and person for my husband and our animals. Lots of love Mar
I am an only child and I know exactly what you are talking about. Now, as an adult, no matter how much I love my family, I need quiet time to be alone; to walk, watch UA-cam 👍🏻😁, focus. It’s essential for some people and there is nothing wrong with it.
Your videos has been an inspiration and a joy to watch. After three years of daydreaming, me and my girlfriend will move into the woods (somewhere in Värmland) at the end of July. Thank you for making videos!
A stunning video, my friend ❤️ What an incredible opportunity to make a place uniquely your own from the ground up as well! Can’t wait to see how the project goes and what you learn! 🌌 -Ro
first of all, love your song! 😍 it even made me emotional 🖤 and no, it's not selfish, everybody needs his/hers own space. some people more, some people less but everybody needs that. beautiful video as always Kalle 🖤
Heey Kalle... Your me-time- project, gives just so so good meaning. We doo all need me-time to be a better human, partner, version of your self- call it whatever. So much right. Thanks for another wonderful video and insight of your life. So amazed and thankfull. Love fron DK
Thanks for the upload. So peaceful and pretty in the forest. But I was wondering.... why are you burning the wood from the old planks instead of cutting them and keeping them for firewood or stove wood in the house? Can you use them indoors?
Great video Kalle, and no, you're not egotistic for wanting to have a "me"-cave. I would say that more of us should have a "me"-cave. A place where we can fill our me bucket so we have more to pour over to other buckets.
When I was recovering from burn-out (is that what’s it’s called in English? Utmattning på svenska) my psychologist taught me about “my sun”, which is the same principle as your bucket! Whenever I’m kind to myself, do stuff I enjoy, or allow myself to rest, I’m colouring my sun, filling it with colour. Whenever I do things I don’t want, or things like boring work, or am mean toward myself, the sun drains in colour. And it’s only possible for my sun to shine on others, to spend and share my energy with others, when the sun is fully coloured.☀️
First of i cant believe i missed this video and im so glad i noticed! I understand so much what you mean about your me bucket. My me bucket has been empty for a while now and i just cant take it any more. I have spent so much time focusing on others and completely forgot myself. This all ended in a panic attack and loosing my creativerty. I have so many me things i want to do, but just dont have the energy for it. Im finally starting to get better and want to get back on track with my things. Its time for me to be selfish. Next weekend im finally all alone and can do what ever I want! Im hoping some time alone will get my creativity back so i can start focusing on creating again. i miss making videos, but have had no time or energy to do so because others peoples needs have come before my own. Thank you for sharing Kalle! ❤
That " me bucket " is a need for 90% of people !!! It is good or bad, I don t know and I don t judge !!! The only thing I know and was so fortunate to live is that always was "our bucket ", me and my life partner. The source of renewed energy, joy and happiness, the source of inner force and power for each of us !!!! When he left this world, once again I realized how blessed we were !!! There are 8 years since then and, of course, I didn't t find another soul to match that way !!!!So, I just watch the others, with calm compassion, who are not so " lucky" to find or achieve this as natural, genuine happiness !!!
Oh wow.. first 5 minutes! I feel like I can watch this for 3 hours... Did you record the guitar? What equipment did you use? I can definitely not record the guitar with my phone and have that sound 😄. 👍👍👍
Beautiful! Thank you! I lived out in the forest of Latvia on a small farm with my family. It was a great experience. I've been watching Living Big in a Tiny House for years now, and have Created my design. I need about 100,000 for land and materials and maybe like the outer shell so I can create my own living space. One thing I noticed, is your medallion is the cedar? Have you read The Anastasia book series? If so what do you think about it? I saw a lot of the stuff you did like bathing never ever quite similar to what she teaches.
@@KalleFlodin I live in a small province in Canada, its quite surprising how similar the landscapes can be, including the weather. However it is incredible how well your cinematography can portray the feeling of being in the middle of it all.
Hi friends 🌲 I tried something new this time with a very slow and simple intro, what did you think about it? 😊If you want to see even more of my content I have three new bonus videos over at Nebula, which you can get access to for 26% off here: curiositystream.com/?coupon=kalleflodin Completely optional, but it really helps this channel out a ton. Thanks you ❤
I love it👍❤❤❤ Slow with beautiful view and musik, less talking.
Beautiful Kalle, really
Love the intro! More of that! :)
It struck me as neither slow nor simple. But without words, the pictures speak and tell the story. Loved it.
More of this please 🙏 😍 It's just soothing with the silence, the birds and especially you playing soothing guitar ❣️🙏🥰
Loved the intro Kalle!! So calm and beautiful. And Im so excited about your little studio cabin! Such a beautiful design, its going to be epic! And I totally relate to you. Having your own space and time is soooo important! 👍🏻❤️
Thank you Jonna 😍 Yea, I think my little cabin will make a huge difference! ❤
I am going to start my "Me bucket". This is a great idea. And it's not selfish to take care of our self before taking care of others 💖💖💖
I'm happy you like the idea Nathalie 😊 Let me know what goes in your bucket! ❤
@@KalleFlodin for sure I will let you know ☺️
Happy to wait dears..
Everybody needs ‘me bucket’ time. It’s for self reflection and recharging, and is vital to being a good human, in my opinion.
This was one of your best videos Kalle! The beginning was absolutely wonderful😍✨Loved how you put together the sounds and video clips and the guitar playing!!🙌🏻👏🏻❤️
Totally understand the me-bucket!! I think it will be healthy for you both to get enough me-time! Thank you for your great work with these videos, they are very much appreciated! Sylvia & Lobo 🙋🏼♀️🐺
I was having depression and this video helped me. Thank you Kalle.
We lost our snow (Wisconsin, USA) in March. We had a lot of spring cleaning up too. I love the hard work and how good it looks when it's finished.
Yea, that's the reward to look forward to! 😊
I could watch this forever 🥺❤️
Thank you Susi 🥰❤️
I'm a huge fan of the guitar, it was lovely to hear your playing :-)
I came back home from work, saw there is a new video and started watching straight away haha.
An amazing as always and very inspiring :-))
Never tried 🥝 with the skin!
Me space is such a great idea, I look forward to seeing its progress :-)
Much love, Oriana 🌸

Happy that part of the video spoke to you 😊 Important to think about!
The Me bucket is a perfect analogy. We all need our buckets to be filled to overflowing for healthy relationships. 🌲💖
The only thing what would make this video even better is Christine's voice and smile 😉 Amazing video Kalle! As always 🌿

Peaceful video.💚 I needed it to day.🙏 Thank you Kalle. Epic week to you and Christine. 🥰
Thank you so much Mia 🥰 You too my friend! ❤
That was so great that you composed your own music for your video! Enjoyed the video and you both have made us jealous! 😁🐶

Aw, thank you 🥰❤ I'm so happy you liked it!
Loved the intro! It’s so recognizable to have a me-bucket and totally normal. Exciting to see when Isak is going to start building. Vi ses!! 🌲💚🌸
Aw, thank you 🥰 Yes, I'm really looking forward to that too! Kram🌲❤

I really loved this intro style! It reminded me of how it felt to watch you in your earlier videos when it was just you and your puppy living in the woods. Very peaceful and lovely 💗💗
And I loved making this intro! 😊❤️
Of course.. you said it..
Good to see u together. May be together forever with happiness
I started running because I needed the me-time. Alone in the forest. Not because I liked running at all. But I grew to love it ❤️
Just amazing!! thank you Kalle! your videas are getting better and better!!
And great song too, you've a lot of talent! congrats man!!
As always, the best! 💚🌲
Love it! Greetings from middle of the Finnish woods. 🤗🌲🇫🇮🎥
❤🙏
The swimming club seems buisy! Are there any places left? hahaha, I loved this video! And while I was watching it my father who was passing by (he's a luthier and a musician) told me: who is this? Oh, the sound he expresses with the guitar is beautiful and clear! And I agree! Have a lovely week!
So peacefully love everything the music, the birds singing in the background
just so great ❤
Aw, thank you so much 🥰❤
I loved the beginning of this video, just the sounds of the tasks you were doing and your guitar, no talking... it was very calming!
And I agree with a lot of people in the comments here, taking "me time" is not selfish. I have always felt the same way and I disliked that I sometimes felt selfish or guilty for it, but in reality, it's other people that make us feel that way, because they may not understand or are caught up in society standards. Saying that ourself comes first and then the others and needing time alone, doesen't mean we don't care about our loved ones 😊 Being alone and spending me time is probably one of my favourite things to do, because that's when I feel the most connected to myself.
You described this "bucket thing" perfectly. I don't think either that this is a selfish thing to think about. Everyone needs the chance to be only by her/his self. 💫
I'm happy you liked it 😊 Totally agree!
Loved this one Kalle! ❤️
Aw, thank you Dagmar 🥰❤
very very calming - new to your channel and am loving it! cant wait to catch up with your videos
Thank you so much 🥰 I'm happy you liked it!
I loooved every second of this video !!! It was so inspiring.
And about the 'me bucket'. I understand you completely. I want my own room in our new house. It feels also selfish or something and strange in a weird way. That if I less love my partner, but I know that isn't the case at all. Life is so busy, I need my own little space where I can be me with my own thoughts. Then I have the energy back to be a great wife (if a may say so hihi) and person for my husband and our animals. Lots of love Mar
I am an only child and I know exactly what you are talking about. Now, as an adult, no matter how much I love my family, I need quiet time to be alone; to walk, watch UA-cam 👍🏻😁, focus. It’s essential for some people and there is nothing wrong with it.
Happy to hear that you also feel this way Mandy ❤
Your videos has been an inspiration and a joy to watch. After three years of daydreaming, me and my girlfriend will move into the woods (somewhere in Värmland) at the end of July. Thank you for making videos!
A stunning video, my friend ❤️ What an incredible opportunity to make a place uniquely your own from the ground up as well! Can’t wait to see how the project goes and what you learn! 🌌 -Ro
Thank you so much my friend 🥰 yeah, can't wait to get started!
first of all, love your song! 😍 it even made me emotional 🖤
and no, it's not selfish, everybody needs his/hers own space. some people more, some people less but everybody needs that.
beautiful video as always Kalle 🖤
Aw, thank you Dominika 🥰❤ I'm happy you understand and feel the same way ❤
@@KalleFlodin I absolutely do! lately even more 🙂
@@KalleFlodin yes, I have learned part of loving others is to love ourselves.
Heey Kalle...
Your me-time- project, gives just so so good meaning.
We doo all need me-time to be a better human, partner, version of your self- call it whatever. So much right.
Thanks for another wonderful video and insight of your life.
So amazed and thankfull.
Love fron DK
As a Chef I love videos with a bit of cooking in it 😍 I would love the potato recipe 😁
love thiss....so calm and relax
cosy vibes my friend
Happy you liked it 😊❤️
Loved the meditative style at the beginning ❤️ Hope you get over 10,000 likes, would love to hear you and Christine do a song together :)
This me bucket way of explaining it is so useful. I am definitely going to use this in the future!
Seems like a good idea to have a separate office space
Being able to be alone sometimes is important :)
Love your videos and loved your slow intro. Masterpiece! Have a peaceful spring! I wish one day I could film as good as you❤️
Thank you so much ❤ Just keep filming and you'll get better!
Thanks for the upload. So peaceful and pretty in the forest. But I was wondering.... why are you burning the wood from the old planks instead of cutting them and keeping them for firewood or stove wood in the house? Can you use them indoors?
Great video Kalle, and no, you're not egotistic for wanting to have a "me"-cave. I would say that more of us should have a "me"-cave. A place where we can fill our me bucket so we have more to pour over to other buckets.
A get away cabin is a great idea for you both! The cooking looks yummy!
Keep the Music coming Kalle!! 👍👍
Coming more in the next video! 😊
When I was recovering from burn-out (is that what’s it’s called in English? Utmattning på svenska) my psychologist taught me about “my sun”, which is the same principle as your bucket! Whenever I’m kind to myself, do stuff I enjoy, or allow myself to rest, I’m colouring my sun, filling it with colour. Whenever I do things I don’t want, or things like boring work, or am mean toward myself, the sun drains in colour. And it’s only possible for my sun to shine on others, to spend and share my energy with others, when the sun is fully coloured.☀️
Vilken fantastisk film! Mer Kalle på gitarr önskas verkligen! Vad duktig du är!
First of i cant believe i missed this video and im so glad i noticed! I understand so much what you mean about your me bucket. My me bucket has been empty for a while now and i just cant take it any more. I have spent so much time focusing on others and completely forgot myself. This all ended in a panic attack and loosing my creativerty. I have so many me things i want to do, but just dont have the energy for it. Im finally starting to get better and want to get back on track with my things. Its time for me to be selfish. Next weekend im finally all alone and can do what ever I want! Im hoping some time alone will get my creativity back so i can start focusing on creating again. i miss making videos, but have had no time or energy to do so because others peoples needs have come before my own. Thank you for sharing Kalle! ❤
Loooove the long intro 😊✨
Nice bro... Happy to watch it..
That " me bucket " is a need for 90% of people !!! It is good or bad, I don t know and I don t judge !!! The only thing I know and was so fortunate to live is that always was "our bucket ", me and my life partner. The source of renewed energy, joy and happiness, the source of inner force and power for each of us !!!! When he left this world, once again I realized how blessed we were !!! There are 8 years since then and, of course, I didn't t find another soul to match that way !!!!So, I just watch the others, with calm compassion, who are not so " lucky" to find or achieve this as natural, genuine happiness !!!
Thanks Kalle. I found this video particularly soothing and calming. What grain do you use for porridge please?
What a lovely video, i really enjoyed it! I definetly know what you mean by filling your own before you can pour into others!
Thank you 😊❤
Really love your song! Absolutely beautiful
Love your work man, keep going! You are doing awesome and inspire a lot of us ❤
Loved this video - everything about it! The “me” bucket - everyone needs one!
Thank you so much Don ❤
Oh wow.. first 5 minutes! I feel like I can watch this for 3 hours... Did you record the guitar? What equipment did you use? I can definitely not record the guitar with my phone and have that sound 😄. 👍👍👍
Always sparking my motivation whenever i watched your videos!! And also i agree to your me bucket!!! 💁♂️🪣💯
My first time in your channel Love I .Can't wait to see all videos.Blessings..Hi from Florida.
Beautiful! Thank you! I lived out in the forest of Latvia on a small farm with my family. It was a great experience. I've been watching Living Big in a Tiny House for years now, and have Created my design. I need about 100,000 for land and materials and maybe like the outer shell so I can create my own living space.
One thing I noticed, is your medallion is the cedar? Have you read The Anastasia book series? If so what do you think about it? I saw a lot of the stuff you did like bathing never ever quite similar to what she teaches.
Always love these videos, they help me escape to nature when I can not be in it.
I'm happy you like them ❤
@@KalleFlodin I live in a small province in Canada, its quite surprising how similar the landscapes can be, including the weather. However it is incredible how well your cinematography can portray the feeling of being in the middle of it all.
❤ makes sense to need our bucket full to fill other buckets
The 📸 work is really good. Ohh, and so is the sound...
