    I've seen a few bits of Europe, but there is so much I haven't seen, and my travel days are over. My advice to everyone: While you are young enough to walk and climb and explore, travel! And don't be satisfied with just formal tours. Wander down the side streets and walking paths. Visit villages that rarely see a tourist. If you know just a smattering of the language, most people are patient if you do your best with it. Your eyes will be opened!

    • @VillaAroldi
      @VillaAroldi  11 месяцев назад +5

      I completely agree! Sad to hear you can't travel anymore, it truly is one of the greatest activities there is! Especially with car without any real plan on where to go, just explore wherever you end up.

    Okay I'm 12 minutes in on your latest video.These are my thoughts that probably nobody will be honest enough to write. I can't believe that you let your "garden" grow to such extreme. What did you think would happen when you left? Really what? It's too funny. You need to hire a local contractor to move you along at a better pace. At your pace God only knows when you will be done. Now if this is just a hobby then you are moving along at a good clip. I have to ask what do you do for a living? Your pockets must be pretty deep for you to move ahead at a snails pace. Now DIY is great, I do what I can but when it's out of range I hire the right people. You have to understand why almost nobody will work for you, don't you? The locals are watching you struggle and laughing at you my friend. Really take a step back and think about it. When I watch your videos I know I'll have a good laugh. Thank you for those. Now you brought back your poor father to break his fucken back to help you while you and your wife take a trip throughout Europe and let your property go to shit. You have no shame my friend. And then you have your wife remove the facade of the house while you go into town. Really!!
    These are my thoughts 12 minutes in. Okay now I'm ready for the next 17 minutes. You know honesty sucks so please don't hate me for being honest. And I know being from NYC I have no filter.

    • @VillaAroldi
      @VillaAroldi  11 месяцев назад +1

      I wouldn't blame my lack of upbringing on NYC, it's too easy to do that.
      Don't you think my wife has her own saying?
      She is an independent woman with her own free will, if she wants to remove the facade I will let her do that. We don't have a caveman relationship where I tell her what to do and not to do.
      As for the garden it does not really matter what happens to it as we are getting bulldosers in at a later stage to redo the whole thing.
      We are in no hurry whatsoever to finish our house, it's not a race but something we do because we enjoy it, sure there are certain things we want done fast but we in general we are not in a rush and if you cant come with some sort of constructive advice or you really do not have to comment, I am surprised i actually spent such a long time even answering you.

      I never accused you of having a caveman mentally, maybe you should have filmed the both of you removing the facade and filmed a small clip of going into town together. Just a thought.
