YEAR TWO | Renovating Two Stone Cabins in the Italian Alps

  • Опубликовано: 10 июн 2024
  • Compilation of the second year living off the grid in Italy. I was halfway the roof renovation of the first cabin and got it weather tight just before heavy snowfall. During the darkest days of winter I carved out wooden rain gutters. Then moved on downstairs with the big work: digging out the floor, building foundation walls, digging trenches for drainage, sewage and plumbing. In summer I poured a floor, completely rebuild the small side room, replaced a lintel, fixed the holes and cracks and pointed the inside walls.

    He just gets on with it, no complaining, just gets it done, its actually inspirational in a way that RUclipsrs often aren't. This is content that should be heralded, flippin brilliant.

    • @midnightmc3096
      @midnightmc3096 5 месяцев назад +44

      So true. Although, I in fact actually somehow feel it demeaning to him and his craft - what he produces in total, both by hand on the ground as well as cinematographically “content” - as it sort of lumps him in with so many RUclipsrs who actually do NOT even produce “content” but are merely acting as some sort of online, desperate prostitutes, and thus only represent the way over-commercialized, likes-begging online and “social” media hordes of our age. Martijn’s work and production, quality, to me, are more along the lines of beautiful short films.
      From Southern California ~ Happy New Year!

    For me, growing up and not learning the skills to handle adversity, Martijn is the example of calm under pressure that I need to see. It soothes me to watch his videos, to see him prioritize the situation, understand that he is safe and the rest will get sorted. His attitude, skills, musical selections and beautiful cinematography are the best. He has added value to my life. THANKYOU Martijn. Can’t wait for your coming adventures.

    What a pleasure it has been to follow your journey martjin, I started following you late 2021ish, I had a serious accident that very nearly killed me and I had to relearn to walk, and I'm now on my feet again (95% with a lot of fighting and hard days but i'll never be 100% but i'll take the 95%), you have inspired me to live more and go after what I want. During that time I could live a little through your videos while I was stuck in bed for nearly a year, thank you for your content and what you put out into the world, truly.

What percentage of the population has the mental toughness and perseverance to overcome, to see a project like this through to completion as Martijn will? ~~Minnesota/USA

    Happy New Year from MINNESOTA, USA
    Few months ago I found this young fellow with a bit of land in the mountains. I raced thru 80+ videos and started over at #1! The difference in Martijn is striking. The first videos are more peppy and energetic, which makes his recent clips sound tired by comparison. But I don't think that is the case...it's his cadence that has relaxed and slowed down. He's moving with a new rhythm.
    What an exciting adventure I can have right here from my cozy cottage by the lake!
    Happy New Year!

    Martijne - your channel is similar to medItation. It's a study in patience, calmness, serenity and artistic integrity. I am an American that lives in a tiny village on the Mediterranean Sea with my Dutch wife on the southcoast of Turkiye. We had the shell of a small village-style house built for us - walls, roof on a 1100 sq meter plot. We ourselves have added covered porches, stone paths and an extensive garden. We laid the floors, built wooden cabinetry in the indoor kitchen, an outdoor kitchen and shower and several small storage buildings as we're a bit too old to have done it all. The silence here is almost profound and the lack of humming background noise soothes the soul. After watching your cycling content were thrilled at this home content. It is definitely like s meditation and a very enjoyable channel you have created.

    bonjour Martjin, c'est avec plaisir que je visionne votre compilation, je pensais avoir tout vu, mais non je n'avais pas vu la destruction de votre campement, vous y aviez fait allusion plusieurs fois mais je n'avais pas très bien compris. Vous avez un grand talent et êtes indestructible.
    je vous souhaite mes meilleures veux pour l'année à venir.

    Martijn, thanks for another year, sharing your life and not hiding behind either "bliss or hardship." I so appreciate your illustration of living in the moment, yet never losing sight of your goals. We're all pulling for you, feeling privileged to journey with you in your building process--life itself.

    Happy new year Martian from Phillipsburg Kansas. The nurse in the hospital turned me onto your site when I was going to my chemo for cancer so for the last eight months I I have been watching your videos from the start. It’s been great company for me lying here recovering from all of this. Thanks again happy new year

    This channel blows my mind. I mean, just doing all the work to renovate these cabins in a country where you are not native and don't speak the language is incredible. But then to film (with all the camera angles, and drone footage), edit, and document everything, well, it's nothing less than awe-inspiring. I've created a video or two for fun and it is incredibly time-consuming. I don't know how you accomplish all of what you do.

    Martijn , greetings from the USA, in Tucson Arizona. The precision in your build is a joy to watch. You are not afraid of hard work, and ask for help when needed. I like also that you take the time to hike and enjoy the beauty of nature around you. My husband is a craftsman, so I appreciate your attention to detail. I also get a real kick out of the cowbells as the neighbor moves their herd.

    Minden nap izgatottan nyitom meg az értesítéseket, hátha van új epizód... aztán jön a csalódás... :(

    Marrtijn, I love your videos. Very inspirational. I just wish I was young enough and in better health to be able to do something like this. Your chickens showed me where the phrase "bird brain" comes from. You throw down food for them and they all head for the same piece. Not thinking that there is enough for all of them. They all want that one piece.

    Martijn, my sympathetic nerve needs a season of rest before the work on the next cabin begins apace. I found it difficult to rewatch the stonework and scaffolding after only just reaching the point where you're able to live snugly in that cabin. I hope next year will go more comfortably, what with both your hard-won experience and the level of infrastructure now in place. I can't wait to see what you've planned.

    Thank you for this review of year two. Have watched all your videos & am inspired. My right leg 4" shorter than left, so spend lots of time in bed...watching your Vlogs & waiting for 2024...drinking a bottle of Cava and eating a feast cooked by my wonderful son. Looking forward to your New Year of Vlogs, Superb!!!
