    Well done. I appreciate your easy narrative style of vlogging. Unless they would like to have some privacy, interacting with family and local friends and acquaintances (doing groceries, etc.) always attracts new subscribers.

      Thanks Edwin! A lot of the people around me are quite shy when it comes to the camera, so it may be difficult, but perhaps over time it will become a little more comfortable and I can show those things too! Good ideas

    Are you going to get water sorted and add in ac? And also do extra insulation where needed ? Ceilings etc…?
    Thanks

      Hey Mark, that depends on what you mean by sorting the water haha. We've contacted the water company and reconnected the line, this is for the mains water. I don't think we'll bother with our own elevated water tank setup, not at this location. We're planning on buying/building on 1 hectare of land in future, when money is there, and on that setup we'll do the whole sha-bang, elevated water tank, solar, agriculture, etc etc! There's just not enough space on this plot for those things, as we will be building a small 2nd home on this land for my Father to join us, this will be to the rear of the building. As for air-con, we're just buying one of the setups right now, this should be fitted tomorrow, well get the larger and 2nd unit next month! Insulation, hmm, I'm not sure what we need that for here in the Philippines, as the only insulation that I am aware of is to make the home hotter (being that I'm from UK), so we certainly wouldn't want to achieve that, haha!

    One more suggestion - an image or emoji of the flag appearing with your title or even your thumbnail always draws in more Filipino viewers. Best . . .

    • @Jora-tuber
      @Jora-tuber 9 дней назад

      And, display attempts at speaking Tagalog. American made, by the way, just know your Filipino members will grow exponentially.

      Great idea - I'll be editing the titles to everything later!

      We agreed with them to pay a higher day rate, and provide snacks/drinks, they provide their own dinner :) They are Muslim, so we didn't want to offend them in any way by accidentally giving the wrong food!

      @@LifeAsWestwood I didn't see when I was there, but I expect there is Halal food, since some Filipinos' are muslim. Good times! I am looking forward to the build with envy.

    • @LifeAsWestwood
      @LifeAsWestwood  8 дней назад

      ​@Jora-tuber yeah I'm sure there are lots of Halal options, me personally though... I think I'd rather get a higher daily pay than hoping someone buys the food I enjoy haha

    Young man i also live in exactly same type of house.
    We hade open ..eves. The house was hot but was still ok
    We ended up enclosing the eves on the underside oyt sede ...and the hous has no bres and its like a hot oven inside now ..
    Think twice before you enclose the eves ...i regret wasting $$$$

      Thanks for letting me know! Yeah it's pretty hot in here already, especially with the lack of trees and open areas around us! Think I'll be leaving them open ahah
