    It’s so interesting to hear that you’ve been feeling uninspired… while you create this beautiful masterpiece of a video, sew a BEAUTIFUL dress/wardrobe, cook alllll the food and live a life that so many people fantasize about. I get it though! I live in a tiny house too. I do cool things, travel often, and yet feel kind of sad and uninspired at times… yet loving a completely different life than I was just one year ago. Being a human is weird sometimes ❤

    Isabel my darling, you are an old soul. You are such a special young woman. I am so proud of you. There hasn't been a video I haven't watched and I missed you while you were gone. Don't take this the wrong way, but watching you in the kitchen, comforts me so much as it reminds me of and makes me feel my grandma. There are not too many women like you and I think you lived another life before this one. Right down to the way you dress. I just adore you!!! You're so wholesome and such a wonderful person. I am sure Logan feels so blessed to have you in his life. Anyone would be blessed to have you in their life and I don't mean romantically of course, just your presence. I feel lucky to have found you on RUclips. You bring me comfort as my past has been so prominent in my mind. I think as we grow older, we reflect on our younger years and our experiences, our happiest times. Mine was at my Grandmas in the kitchen. Hot water bottles at my feet and fresh smelling sheets and pillow cases that I would breathe in. You are that freshness, yet the old. Does that make sense? An old soul, doing what women did in the faraway past.. It's unique and I hope that never changes.

    Did a media/caffeine fast this past week to start off the new year and when I got notified that your video was up ...I couldn't wait to watch it in the next few days! Finally broke my fast this morning by making a cup of pour over coffee and starting the morning watching your video. And Isabel, when you took that sip of coffee at 1:45 and said, "mm- a warm cup of coffee on a cold day", I couldn't agree more in that moment while I had mine in hand!
    Always admire your grit and desire to notice and appreciate the simple beauties that is all around. Stay warm and safe!

  • @jenniferrodin1454
    @jenniferrodin1454 Год назад +1

    Isabel, I want to thank you for your videos and encourage you. Winter is hard, especially off-grid, in a tiny home, and up north where it is cold and dark a lot of the time! I have lived off-grid (but in Africa, so it was never cold!) long ago, and of course camped a lot, and many of my friends have been living that way for decades; built their own homes, lived without running water, built their own wind turbines, solar ovens, etc. I think it is very admirable, and also very difficult! Good for you, for doing this, but make sure you let yourself have some joy, easy days, and pure fun as well. The January Blues are nothing to sneeze at!
    Anyway, what I wanted to ask you while I was watching this video yesterday was if you would consider making a video about the nitty gritty not so pretty parts of off-grid tiny home living, without (as you mentioned) indoor plumbing. I think it would be a great service for viewers who are romanticizing off-grid living, just to see what it's really like on the day to day. It might sound yucky, and I'm not being creepy or kinky, but I think lots of people would be interested in your bathroom set-up and how you maintain it, where you get your drinking/cooking water (especially in winter), whether you have to thaw or purify it, if you ever get sick, how/if you guys bathe, and honestly, just being able to see what an entire day is like there in your house, like a fly on the wall (the good the bad and the ugly) would be SO interesting.
    I know. Of course you need your privacy! But my daughter, who told me about your videos, and I often wonder: Who is filming you? What does your partner do every day, or is he right there off-cam? Does you-tubing give you enough to live on? You share beautiful cooking demos with ingredients that are not so inexpensive. What is your road like? Do you get snowed-in? (I sometimes get snowed-in and I find it a little bit frightening.) Do you ever feel frightened out there? What does a day-trip to get groceries look like in wintertime, when you likely aren't living 100% off what you grew or stored in warmer months?
    I ask this because (I'm almost 60 now) when I was younger, I wanted to live off-grid in a bale house in the country with just a hand pump for cold water, a solar shower, and a composting toilet. I ended up not getting that dream, BUT am in a wonderful, quirky, very old, cozy, small house eight miles from the nearest town, and half a mile from the highway. I no longer want to be this isolated OR to be off-grid (unless I move somewhere that's warm year-round!). I am not in the off-grid existence, but I am okay with that and I still totally LOVE hearing people tell the stories of how they are thriving at it. Some of my friends have been managing it for decades.
    I really enjoy your videos, they are beautiful, and you seem to be a wise old soul! I have already commented before, hoping for a cookbook, and I see that you have actually already done one or two. Thank you! Your passion and attentiveness in all you do seems very genuine and spiritual, and you are truly a gift to the world. Just please remember to keep taking rests as well, and please consider my request. It would be so interesting to know more of the nitty gritty, but like I said, it's also none of our business at all!
    Peace and joy to you and yours in 2024.
    Oh! And thank you for saying that January is the worst time for resolutions! Thank you so much for that. I completely agree.
    Take care and be well.

    This was a lovely video. I have loved the gentle sound of the snow landing softly on the blanket of snow when everything else is quiet all my life. I've always wanted everyone to know that experience, so was so happy when you shared it in your video. My husband and I used to chop wood to warm our home. I remember getting up before everyone to get the fire going and warm the house before getting the children ready for school. Even though I loved the smell and warmth of the wood, I used to dream of just flipping a switch to turn a furnace on. I admit, now that I have that, it's so nice. But, like you said, you don't need all the other things to be happy. Over the years I have been blessed to have everything I wanted, but now that I have, I want to get rid of a lot of all the material things and go back to simpler. Don't get me wrong, I still want my indoor plumbing, electricity and heat, but I don't need the "fluff" anymore. You see things and think it will be better if you have them, and for some things it is, but sometimes you already have what makes you happy. Rather than thinking you need more, or something else, don't waste time on trying for that. Spend your time appreciating what you already have. I've been blessed. I've worked hard all my life and so has my husband. Our children are grown with families and doing well in life, but I do and always have taken the time to soak in all the simpler beauty that surrounds me and I wish that for everyone. Your videos are inspiring.

      Hello Gail, thank u so much for sharing ur thoughts and experiences. So interesting to read.❤ Sending you love from Lake Maggiore in Italy, today it's a cold foggy grey day with snow up in the mountains. And we are very happy if we just have to turn on the gas heating. At the same time I'm missing the smell of the wood stove we had in Spain...🎉😊

      ​@cosmicwings7211 how wonderful it is for you to be able to enjoy different countries. Yes, there is nothing so nice as the smell of the wood burning while you are surrounded by the cold. Thank you so much for your kind comments and sharing a little piece of Italy with me❤

    Your thoughts about owning stuff and how it owns you, is very right on. I think we find more contentment in our lives, when we're happy right where we are, with a more simple lifestyle.
    Logan absolutely cracked me up, and honestly, I was wishing I was enjoying your cooking along with him. Please share the recipe. :)
    Thank you for sharing your winter thoughts with us, knowing we're all going through this together. ❤

    Hey Isabel, it's nice to hear from you again.
    Glad to see you and Logan doing well.
    Sewing at this time of year is a great idea.
    You have the time, the place, and the inspiration to make really neat things.
    Every time I hear you saying how small your space is, I think to myself, "They really need an addition or two to that tiny home!"
    One of my favorite things is castle architecture.
    As buildings that have been around for centuries, these buildings often started quite small.
    They often lacked amenities, and the owners often had to add parts on to include new ideas that came along.
    However, they rarely did any of that solely by themselves.
    They usually had help, lots of it.
    So if you can figure out what you would like to add, and where to add it, that's the first step.
    I bet you could put a septic system in if you really wanted an indoor bathroom.
    While your current place is a bit of all things, as the building organically grows, it could be repurposed for a number of things.
    Anyway what I'm trying to say, is don't feel constrained by what you have now, because you can change it.
    That would be a good project for the warmer seasons of the year.
    Plan it out, get lots of help, and make this tiny home into the home you'd like it to be, if you'd like to stay here.
    Personally I think you should, as you and Logan both seem to enjoy the area.
    I hope you continue to enjoy the winter season, and I look forward to your next video, whether that's in a week or a month, or whenever.

    I am so thankful to have found your content. I'd been really really struggling. I suddenly lost my son at 3 years in December 2023. I felt this was a unsurvivable loss and stopped finding beauty in ANYTHING. Then all the sudden i found YOU. You and your content have brought me so much peace and insight, so much. You have also inspired me to make a lot of changes, to let alot of things go and get back to what is really important and to let go of what no longer serves me.
    I now live in a little cabin in Northern Wisconsin. No power otger than my generator when absolutely needed, no indoor plumbing...and i have a new appreciation for life.wake up every morning thankful and while i still carry grief shes become a companion and no longer my enemy. . I had forget to appreciate the true beauty that was around me in the woods, the water and the sky I had forget to LIVE. So thank you for helping ME to realize how strong I truly truly am. I will forever remember you with admiration and love

    Yes Isabel, it's been a very difficult few months. It's been breaking my heart and it's keeping me mindful to be grateful for the safety, security and the basic needs that I have been granted. I've taken my stand and will not be moved, discouraged or swayed from it. Even when I don't see the evidence with my own eyes, I know God, the Universe or whatever you believe has a plan. It doesn't stop the tears from falling. It just makes it more bearable. God bless.

And then maybe build a green house type structure around your bathtub 😁. I too have an outdoor bathroom. It is no more fun in a tropical climate let me tell you. Please keep feeding Logan for our entertainment. It is so nice to see you again.❤

    In last half a year you changed, like you actually did what you talked about....u got stressed out, because you popped and now you dont have to try so hard and you are not happy for the small things.....
    but i swear this happens with every youtube that gets big, they dont love it anymore, but keep doing it and when i see that, im sad

    Hi again Isabel it has been a few minutes since we last saw you but that's ok considering the time of year that it is. I hope that the holidays were filled with plenty of joy and good tidings for you and yours. I too get the blahs when I don't see the sun much this time of year but I'm always amazed at just how quickly those go away when I get to see even just the sun light if not the sun as well even if it's just for a few minutes. That usually perks up my day and sometimes that feeling lasts for a few days. I hope that you don't mind me saying this but I really like that shade of green that you wore in this video on you. I also love that little red Riding Hood cape that you wear as well. Thank you for sharing another sweet and calming video with us. I think that I could listen to your old soul for days if not weeks and never grow tire of your voice. May y'all have a good one. Have fun take care

    Thank you Isabel for sharing yourself with all of us. Thank you for reminding us just how beautiful this world is and that we need to be thankful for the little pleasures in life. The rat race of everyday life that so many of us get caught up in can sometimes bring us down. Life is what we make it, if we want better then it’s up to us as individuals to make it better. Be grateful and love one another. Live in community. Blessings to you Isabel.
