So glad you're enjoying the seasons!
I live in southwest Virginia! Learning to love and appreciate each season is something I've been trying to integrate more myself. So, it's refreshing to hear some of your thoughts/realizations on the topic. It sounds like Boise climate and fresh-food supply are very similar! Growing your own produce is basically a necessity around here if you're really wanting to nourish the body. Such a sweet video! 😊❤
You're so right about Minnesota friend! I've lived here my whole life and the winters are pretty tough! BUT I really believe the hard winters make for a magical spring and more gratitude during the summer and fall. Loved this video ❤️
I live in MN as well. I will admit the rough winters do help you appreciate the warmer weather. However, as someone who loves farmers markets, and growing my own food, it’s not easy to live in MN.
I’m glad MN is working out for you, but Mrs. McNeely actually lives in Idaho.
@S Yes my friend, I'm aware. She mentioned the brutal Minnesota winters so I was responding to that. But thank you for the reminder of why I never comment on You Tube. Have a great day 🙏
@@elissajohnson3698 I understand how you feel.
Here in the Netherlands we attach the baby carseat to the bicycle or put it in a cargo bike. As a result, mini babies already go along on the bike 😂
There are also "baby hammocks" for a bike trailer where you can put the little ones in :)
That the same here in Denmark. It not recommended to put a child under 6 months in a bike carseat but in a cargo bike with at conventional autoseat is not a problem.
@@rosaliepeter-isenburger9811 yes we have one of those it's great
Same in Austria
Great video Hannah. I think you said you were going to link the recipe for the soup you made but didn’t see it-looked great so would love the recipe. Thank you!
I live in North Dakota and grew up in Minnesota. Our winters are long but our summer and fall (and spring) too (except this year) are beautiful. I can’t wait!
This was a tough winter. My second year here and I’m also from OC. 12 weeks pregnant and we love our life here and can’t wait to raise a little one in Boise. Thanks for sharing your experience, we almost have sunshine ☀️ 🙏
It’s cute that you said it’s almost spring here! Bahahah not till June. I saw that you really liked the alchemist pub, You should definitely try out frondescence too! I’m glad you’re happy here ❤
I was born and raised in Boise. I moved to Oregon about 5 years ago and the more time goes on the more I miss it there..especially the river! I keep thinking about moving back and hearing you talk about it makes me miss it even more!
Sharing other children’s faces/bodies is still just as weird and exposing.
Hi, have you tried getting a life instead of following people you don’t like ?
I totally understand you, I moved away from my family and friends to much hotter summer's and much colder winters. I went to school in my new town and now I'm working and my daughter left her first school, teachers that are amazing, and her friends she doesn't see anymore even when we go home to visit family. My friends tell me how much they miss me and how much better it would be if I moved back. I'm determined to stay here in our new city and continue to crush my goals I keep making for myself and the life I was and see my daughter and I living. Thank you for your videos and for being honest and truthful about yourself, your life, and your family.
Wow Hannah your house is so beautiful!!
I love hearing this. I'm third generation OC and have watched this place change so much. Leaving here is scary because of the journey into the unknown. But I can reassure you.. this is Babylon and you've made a brave and fruitful decision.
I’m not from California, but from afar, it seems like the political scene has made it difficult for anyone to live there who doesn’t share the same values of the far-left.
Girl I feel you on the farmers markets!! We used to live in Altadena and I’d go to the South Pasadena farmers market every week. We live in Spokane now and they just aren’t the same. Glad you are loving Idaho living🫶🏻
How are you feeling living in Spokane? I have a friend there and it sounds like it's turning into Seattle Jr!
I moved from Vancouver Island, Canada to Nelson, Canada last spring, and I can relate with and understand so many of your pros and cons! My biggest con with my new mountain life is that it's SO DRY ALL YEAR! Haha, I do miss not having snow 5 months of the year, but the pros I have gained make up for the weather factors so much. The community soooo much richer, my life feels slower, and I'm just a happier person despite normal life struggles and the constant dry skin 😂❤. I feel like people commenting here forget that changes require adjustment, and it takes time to fully settle in a new place. And there's more to how someone feels about their life than what they share on UA-cam.
Hannah was fortunate to have an established friend when she moved to Idaho. We moved about 45 mins away from a suburb just outside of Seattle to a smaller area and it took years before we finally felt like we "fit in". It was like an extended country club when we moved in. We have lived here 13 yrs now and they have built 4 new neighborhoods and people from bigger cities slowly moving in. We moved to get away from all the politics and mumbo jumbo. The small town feel is still here but the vibe is definitely changing to what we tried to escape from. Moving out of the state is next on the list!
It’s funny you mentioned Minnesota. I live in MN. Winters are very rough, so much cold and snow, often lasting 5-6months. There are definitely things I do love about here, but it’s not my ideal place to live by any means. My list of reasons for wanting to leave has been growing for years and years. Hopefully I will be able to move in the next year or so. Take care Hannah.
yes where ever you go there you are !! You will never be able to out run yourself. finding peace and happiness within is key. idaho looks great on you. i would love to move to a tropical place one day. And also nothing is final you can always move again if you find something else better serves you.
I’m so glad you’re liking Idaho! I moved here from Washington and I’ve had such a hard time making other mom friends lol
Native Boise, Idahoan here! I’m glad you’re enjoying it so much💖
Once you know your town more and have your favorite places that are indoors etc you’ll miss winters 😂 definitely do like a snow sledding trip with an Airbnb with a wood stove. Life changing for the winter blues. Love you and your videos ! Xoxo ❤
Hannah, I love your house 💕💕
A greenhouse on your property would be SO FUN!! ❤
you're making me want to go visit boise, idaho!!
Yep we’re in Minnesota and it can get cold 🥶
It’s nice seeing a number of Minnesotans here.
In eagle there are a few families who put their veggies out to buy that they grow. As well as the eagle market that’s seasonal. It’s right off of eagle rd.
There’s more cows in Idaho than people and the politics abortion laws one of the most extreme in the country . They also have a list of banned books😩
And they don't have Chaz, aka summer of love, loss of job due to tyrannical mandates, etc.... We all have to pick and choose what we are willing to live with vs trying to turn our city/state into the place that we left. There are reasons people choose to live where they do.
Still not allowed to cross the border (short drive away) into Idaho but Idaho was still so much more free than Canada, where we were forced to give up our jobs, businesses, ability to have visitors in our homes, access to public transportation, facilities and businesses (aside from certain stores). Hard for some people to understand that because they think abortion is the only thing that matters when it comes to a person’s bodily autonomy.
And I bet it’s 90% white!!!!
@@MrSprite2005 wow.... racist much?
@@MrSprite2005idaho, Az, Texas..all referred to as “white flight” during Covid 😂 it’s funny bc quite a few have moved back.
My nephew lives in boise. I live in Ammon by Idaho Falls and you wouldn’t believe the difference in weather. We get LONG HARD AND VERY SNOWY WINTERS. My nephew is like no thanks I’m going back to boise lol 😂 I love the idea of soup nights ❤
Boise looks like such a nice place. No wonder you are enjoying it, though adaption takes time. My family and I are also trying to figure out where to settle and of course no place is perfect.
You said you are going to homeschool your kids, why is that? In Spain where I am from that's such an uncommon thing that I wonder the reasons behind. Also whether it's compatible with a full time job and what curriculum you follow.
Btw, love your videos! :)
We're moving out of California this week, after 29 years!
Hi Hannah, I really hope that everything's doing fine, but watching your video I can really say it.
So...I would like to ask you something, and I don't know If you will ever read this, but I want to try anyway...
What do you think about homeschool as a ex teacher as you are?
I am really curious.
Ps.
Sorry for my english but it isn't my mother language...
You don’t have to explain to us about California , we see what’s going on. Idaho looks much more appealing .
I live in Southern California in a prime location close to the beach. Although this year we had terrible cold lot of rain and even snow I still think it’s a great climate here. The living cost is very high luckily I am able to afford my home but I worked my ass off to be where I am today.. however, I am getting feed up with high taxes ..
Please link the soup recipe ❤🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️
Daylight Savings Time (aka artificial time) doesn’t give you more daylight. Of course, the days are longer now because we’re nearing the summer solstic, but we’d have the same amount of daylight if we were still referring to Standard Time (aka natural time). The difference is that with ST, the daylight hours are earlier in the morning, which is actually more beneficial for our circadian rhythms. More light in the evening/nighttime has been shown to increase the risk of cancer and obesity. There’s been a bill proposed in congress to keep DST all year round, which sleep experts caution against. Every year, when the clocks go forward, there is an increase in car accidents. DST has also been shown to increase energy costs for individuals, who spend more money on air conditioning and overall electricity bills. It would be better for our health, individually and as a nation, to stick to natural time year round. We’d still have the same amount of daylight, but with better sleep and overall health.
I worked in early childcare and the time change hard on the Littles!
Minnesota ♡♡♡
" Wherever you go - there you are" - It is both true and not true. I am the same me but I feel vastly different in different places. Of course, you could argue that one can be happy in the arctic - but if it's not your vibe - it's not your vibe - no matter how "happy" you are anywhere you go. Just because you can make it work doesn't mean it's the best place for you. If it's easier to be happier somewhere else - why not choose that? Not everything needs to be a strugle.
Following you forever and I just love you! I live in Boise too so maybe one day we’ll run into each other and I’ll say hi!
Hannah-have your parents come out to visit in Idaho ?
Link to the orzo soup recipe?
You should organize a farmers market in Boise!!
I'm sure they already have them, it's the types of food and the growing season that is the problem. Not a wide variety that grows there and a much shorter season compared to us here in W WA for an example.
Also South Florida has the most vegan families that homeschool and the best climate for growing year-round 🌞🌴🥥🤙💚
Are any of us happy where we live tho?
I live in Minnesota, while there are some things I like about living here, as a whole it’s not my ideal place to live. I would love to move at some point in the near future.
I love where I live. Florida
I live in Germany and I like it far more than my home country.
I used to be but Canada’s mandates were extreme. Like Hannah explained, I can’t just force my spouse to leave even though he is still considering it. He fled from a tyrannical country to Canada and just finds it difficult to be put in that position again.
Could you post the soup link? Thank you
She must have brain farted because when she said she would link the recipe I went searching for it to no avail. Got to love pregnancy & post pregnancy brain! 😂
Hanna is very sassafras with her friend 🥰
am I the only one who thinks Keslie should have her own YT channel😅🤘
Seriously, she is fun and super expressive, I loved listening to her talk.
I 💜 MN
Girl you are SELLING me on Idaho!!!!
That bunk bed is deadly. My mom's friend's child broke his neck falling asleep and slid off the bed while his head got cought in the bars. Please see this and get a safe bed 😇🙏💚
for those of us who love to ski and love our winter clothes and gear then Orange County sounds terrible to live in. I love stepping out my front door wearing snowshoes or driving 20 minutes to ski my local mountain. My kids started skiing at age 2. I hate to say it, but you don't look happy in Idaho, Hannah. I have been following you for quite a while now.
Am I the only one who thinks the bangs aren't very flattering?
If you want to cold plunge you should cold plunge! Trust your intuition mama.
i was born and live in montreal, canada. I am blessed to live in a free country, no war, democraty, good services but.. winter are hard ! It can reach -30*C ( -22F), lot's of snow, ice, and it last forever, April 5th and we have freezing rain outside. Last week it was snowing.. I might be a little happier if winter didnt last 5 months and counting !!!
I been to Idaho so beautiful just new a more liberal environment to thrive in. Nothing personal !! 5:55
