    Your build videos are great. I love sharing them with my nieces, you are an inspiring woman.
    Please do NOT include this into your budget. It is meant only for a frivolous, fiscally irresponsible, materialistic gift to yourself that you would otherwise never waste money on. (This concept was introduced to me by a stranger when I was on a very tight budget, living in a twelve year old car somewhere that gets meters of snow in the winter. I hope you use it for something totally ridiculous that brings laughter every time you look at it. It’s better for the soul than it sounds, promise.)

    So good to feel like we get a little insight into your motives and to hear you say we need to keep testing ourselves is food for the soul. Keep being safe as most of us are here to watch you on your build. I totally agree with your philosophy - If you think you can, you can, and if you don't at first, its not a failure - its a growth lesson.

    I’m really sorry that you have to deal with people’s lack of respect and boundaries so much. Sad reality of society with some people feeling they have a right to know more about you extra.

Hearing you speak on sharing and not revealing. I've noticed all ready and feel the same. Feels good to me that you're on the wave link, I know compares with yours. Admiring YOU Lady, for being you, Hearing you speaking on and Hearing everything. Gardening we share, BOSS LADY she looks like a Plymouth Rock..( does she lay a large brown egg???) Different kinds of chickens than her. And your pet with no shoulders, cool to me seeing who beyond sight. Your true beauty is shining through, in case you didn't know.. I'm not blind,, Yes, all good to me.. I learned years ago I can be a friend with a lady and share with conversations that I miss.

    Unfortunately, sometimes people get the wrong idea and start to think they know the UA-cam creator they spend so much time watching. As viewers, it's easy to forget you only show us what you want us to see and that your privacy and safety is still No. 1 most important factor in all of this.

    Hi Jas,
    Love this video, it shows massive courage to express vulnerability like this, I could see you holding back tears during some of those answers. Esp when talking about safety.
    I can see some trauma lurking, most pain comes from lack of choice, either a choice was removed or there was no choice. Hope this can help somewhat.
    I love how you are optimistic about everything falling into place, I trust the universe too.
    I think people are afraid to be seen trying and failing so they don't try.

    G’day Jasmin,
    Firstly thanks for letting me watch your journey ❤
    As i was watching your Q&A video,
    I totally forgot how at the beginning, you had dramas with nosey people and the safety issues that you went through. I’m sorry to hear that you still have personal safety issues.
    I definitely would have been one person who would like to visit your b&b. To be honest, I probably would have chewed your ear off, asking a million questions about your build haha!!😂
    I’ve been watching your build since I believe around January. I again honestly thought that you would have been nearly completed by the end of the year. Haha!!
    How wrong was I …. This build was a lot bigger and harder than I ever imagined 😂.
    I too looked at kit homes, removable homes but in the end I had decided to go a shipping container home. It was at this stage I started to look on UA-cam for ideas and inspiration. That’s when I came across your channel, you were the only Aussie doing this. I was also lucky to find your channel pretty close to when you first started. So I’ve got to see the progress along with the highs and lows.
    I thank you for so much inspiration and information you’ve so openly shared.😊
    Once again, thank you and well, bloody done.
    Cheers mouse

      Hey Mouse!
      Honestly I can’t thank you enough for being here for the entire journey, it’s been so lovely to know that whenever I post (I get anxious every time 😂) that you will be here to give me words of encouragement!
      I’m really bummed about the circumstances too I honestly had the most incredible community base in my mind, but I’m still trying to head there I’m thinking maybe if I start growing it with people I know around first it may make it a bit safer to grow the the wider community 😍
      And honestly I’m so happy you told me why you started to follow because that’s exactly one of the reasons I started sharing my journey, I was looking for people in Aus building container homes and couldn’t find any! So I thought being a teacher surely I can just explain my process along the way and the videos might help people here so that’s made my night thank you! ☺️
      I hope you continue to enjoy the journey and I hope yours is going g amazing too as always thank you for being here and I’ll see you next week 🥰🙏

    Well done jas i am in full agreement with you and i think most of the followers you have feel the same, your safety is paramount and keeping your private life out of your UA-cam channel is a necessity in keeping you safe.
    I love everything you do and admire your can do attitude.
    As a carpenter retired and enjoying doing anything for myself friends and family i understand why you want to do everything you can towards finishing the build.
    Please think about making your entrance to your property a bit more secure and maybe have some solar flood lights in the tree's near the gate to deter those unwanted visitors.
    Be strong be safe and look after yourself and your family of three characters.
    Lots of love and positive vibes from the UK John xxx

    This has been an absolute favourite video of mine. I'm also going to build a shipping container home on my block down in the south west and I'm learning a lot from you alone, even if I have done tonnes of research. One thing I'm surprised is that you are using timber frames windows and doors in a bush fire zone. I've got steel and Aluminium for mine so I minimise the risk of fire as much a possible. I've also got double glazing for everything so it's a solar passive home. Did your council allow for timber? Will you be using single glazing for windows?
    I'm really looking forward to seeing you install them, and everything else for that matter.
    Not only are you a champion at building, you are a master at presentation, editing and creating extremely entertaining content. I would not be surprised if a tV channel asks you to present a special deco or a show out in the bush. You'd be absolutely brilliant, as you are in your own videos.

    Hey Jas, I don't usually watch the Q&A vids, but this one was actually good. People are so weird, you need to keep yourself safe, especially after those randoms were turning up at the gate. Another youtuber I watch just had a couple of weirdos turn up, one of them went to her place, found out she wasn't there then flew to Africa where she was because he was convinced they were supposed to get married, lucky she was filming with nat geo at the time so she had people with her.
    Steam boxes are easy, you could knock one up with the left over steel you've got from the container wall you cut out. I used a couple of wallpaper strippers for the steam. If I remember right it's 1 hour per inch of thickness. Make sure you have the shape before you take the gunwales off as those plastic canoes tend to spring out a bit.
    Have a fantastic week Jas, look after yourself

    Nice Q&A … Very understandable that your private life and safety are top priorities… There’s a lot of crazy out there 😅
    I do think that you’re doing an amazing job… Not a problem at all that this wasn’t a build video, in the limited way you let us peek into your life, this did shed a bit light on you as a person, and your motives in life…
    Happy to see, that the universe guided you that way, to your destination 😉
    Keep up the spirits and love for your animals and the land you live on/from… Boss Lady still demanding her role i see 😂 luv her… Not a winter person either, and we’re nearing winter here in Belgium, so definitely not my time of year, but i warm myself to your video’s, quirky personality and amazing sceneries (that’ll get me through winter i hope 🤞)
    Enjoyed this vid Jas… keep it up 🙏🏼❤️

Jango was so funny with the bacon, she seemed to be thinking, lm not sure about that, looked at her friend and thought well he has eaten it so it must be okay lol. Jango and boss lady standing next to each other just watching was so cute. When you were on your deck answering questions I noticed 3 jugs type things filled with water on the bank behind you, and just wondered what they were? I love your philosophy on life and I’m very pleased you are being so careful with your safety, thanks for sharing what you did x

    Heyyyy Jazzzzzz … Thank you so much just for who you are❣️It was so generous of you to answer questions just like it is so generous of you to reply to comments. Thanks also for all the time it does take to roll out these videos … the quality shows it 🙏🏽
    I am so grateful about you keeping safety 1st … I had noticed along the way that you kept the focus tight & glad to hear you address it. I was warned early on as I started sharing on-line & started UA-cam-ing about my land … separate accounts & no usable real personal data & no hint of where I am 😎… took a minute to get used to it coz I am used to being a pretty open woman. So gross really but … We gotta do what we gotta do so we can keep doing what we want to do! Not living fear based, just smart & proactive. 💪🏼
    Speaking of which: Your fear conversation was fabulous🙏🏽. So damn spot on🙌🏽
    Thanks also for sharing some of the budget. Damn you are doing great! My 1 year build is going on 2 years now coz’ 1) US County government regulations & permitting getting tougher dragging out time & 2) big price jump in materials 2023-24, etc. causing me to have to work more to pay for 2-3x original costs. I am so impressed with how you have kept it reined in by doing EVERYTHING yourself (‘cept those big 4 hours 🤪🙃🤪LOLOLOL).
    You never cease to amaze me … even as a Vampire who likes to live hanging upside down from the roof in the dark … you are still adding windows … probably just for the challenge, eh? Bet that’s why you walk around & do all this stuff during daylight too … just for the challenge 😂😂😂😂
    Gosh, my heart melts & I giggle at the same time with Boss Lady & Jango & neighbor dog pal. Have a fabulous week with the creature kids❣️❣️ Sending all of you love & clear skies for the week🙏🏽💜

    The property is looking beautiful.
    I think it's amazing, and to be commended, how you try to reply to almost every comment that comes in. It must take a lot of time. I haven't seen many youtubers do that.
    Also have to smile as I've noticed there is not a reply to anyone who says anything too personal, or below the belt, so to speak (!) The fact tgat you answer all the others makes your silence glaringly obvious - it is a smart strategy, I think!
    'Hint hint', but I think sometimes people don't get the hint, lol

    Hi Jas I am Andy from the UK Felixstowe suffolk .you said you can’t do the electric installation your self but when the electrician arrives he will do the first fix which is running conduit that takes a long time so ask if you can run it he might just mark were the cable needs to go and let you do it will save you a load of money . I don’t know if you use twin and earth cable in Australia I saved a lot myself and got the electrician to sign off the work . Well done for teaching yourself to build . If you use spray foam make sure the inside of the container is bone dry or the foam will keep the moisture in forever . I have done a lot of building work and I kept Bees so if you need any advice on those things ask away lots of luck regards Andy.
