  • It's the second Sunday in the month so I'm visiting Gran Balon, a flea market in Turin. Back at the cabins I continue with the kitchen. After 2,5 years the trusted Suzuki is making place for a new car.

    I had a friend who rented the cottage at the end of my property - a retired Priest. He used to carry two boiled eggs with him at all times. We'd often go walking together for hours, discussing everything under the Sun during those trips. Many times I'd laugh to see him suddenly pull a boiled egg from his pocket and munch down... with a sprinkle of Salt from a small container he also carried. He was a fascinating man who was a font of wisdom for me during a time when I most needed it. He passed away this morning, as I sat by his bed.
    His last words to me were 'Thank You'. I don't know why he was thanking me - I always seemed to get more from our friendship then he did - but I'm grateful that I was there with him at the end.
    I know this comment has nothing to do with your excellent content, Martijn and it's just coincidental that his name was James (Jimmy to his friends) but I thought I'd share a moment of our friendship with the world.

    Hi Martijn. I’ve watched you make bread over the fire and in your oven and thought if he can do it, I can do it. So, I dug out my parents Dutch oven and did what you did and made my first homemade bread. I’m a 68 year old women. Thanks Martijn. You’re never too old to learn something new. Love your videos

      I have made standard homemade bread for years, and after looking at making focaccia bread, it's far easier. I added salt before baking, put bits of onion slices, a bit of grated cheese and it was delicious.
      I still wonder why I hadn't learned that before.
      Enjoy that marvelous aroma of freshly baked bread 🍞.

      I've made focaccia several times with fresh rosemary or a tomato and garlic sauce. Sea salt adds just the right touch before baking. I make it on a half sheet cake pan, cut it into portions and store some in the freezer. It takes just putting it on a warm pan with olive oil to heat for a meal. Great for any time of the day and as an addition or a main in any meal. I love it because I can dress it up as pizza without the expense or the calories.

      And they aren't even real trucks with 8' beds to hold a lot of materials or construction items. They have half a bed & an empty backseat most of the time anyway. And you can't see over the front of them.
      Can hardly find a good, solid, older truck anymore either. Mine's a 2005 & I'll be running that workhorse into the ground. I own the truck since the hubby has the reliable car for work commutes. It just makes sense.
      It will likely be my one & only truck as we have most of the homestead infrastructure put in & don't need to renovate much more so won't have much need for a big truck bed.

    Yes, someone else waits all week for this. Gorgeous, awesome, interesting, always informative, and we think we know Martijn personally. How would I, at 81, ever get to know Italy and the alps? This is my way.

    The word we southerners use for a vehicle like Jimny is workhorse. To be dependable and flexible enough for the environment of your mountain area certainly was important. Now with the bigger car and a tilt/dump trailer your work and expenses for carrying loads will be more economical money and sweat wise. We live to learn from our experiences as you have over the last two years. The second cabin build will be easier because you have learned so much from the first. The first cabin ambience is lovely. TY for sharing this building journey. Best wishes from San Antonio, Texas, USA.

    Jimmy was like you in the beginning, concquering feats almost too big and hard for you both... but winning nonetheless. Most of the times, at least, because no one (and nothing) is perfect.
    It was a joy and great inspiration to see what you have done sofar. My humblest compliments!

You have an admirable quality of hard work with pure pleasure, devoid of resentment. The contentment of making, with our own hands, is so marvelous.

    Dear Martin, when i watch ur videos it reminds my experience. Alone in the mountains, stone cabin. Life changing experience to be able to start hear yourself in the deepest level of the mind, and naturally answering questions you had never new the answers. The main difference what i didnt do i had no cameras, no work, no watch, no calendar or anything for bussines purpose. Nature is not about this.Because all this dont let you be truely free and stops from becoming more pure and wise mind. Nature itself its a universal remedy against traumatized systemic mind , if you feel sick in anyway this is the place where everything transforms into pure self love . I Wish you to start share more hugs with humans, you need this. As we all. We cuddle animals, we say how beautiful they are, we want share a kiss with them, lets try to do the same with humans the ones we meet in our way. Namaste

    I love all the white bark trees around there. They remind me of the paper birch trees where I grew up. Also, what an ode to that vehicle! You actually made me feel emotional about a car...something I would have sworn I was incapable of. (I drive a Geo Prizm, don't you know.) If I were Suzuki, I'd pay a small fortune for that footage!

    Martijn, I understand the sentiment for your Jimmy. We had a Chev Astro van that took our family, 2 shepherds and 3 cats everywhere. She was heart and soul. But as life would have it, at 450,000 kms we had to put her down. I wrote a huge thank you on her dashboard, it was emotional, all those beautiful memories. I get it, hugs my friend.
