hvala ti puno. mi smo tako zaljubljeni u vašu zemlju i vaš narod. ovdje smo dobrodošli kao da smo jedni od vas. ne mogu izraziti veličinu naše zahvalnosti.
Welcome to Montenegro, I hope you will make your dream come true. My husband's ancestors are from that region. Wild and beautiful area, water has always been an issue. Best of luck!
I cannot help but be filled with admiration for your journey of renovating a ruin in the mountains of Montenegro into an eco-luxury boutique resort. Your story is one of perseverance and dedication, a tale of rediscovering oneself and finding solace in the beauty of nature. Your words transport me to the rough black rocky karst landscape of Montenegro, where you have found a little piece of paradise amidst the magical nature. Your vision of an off-the-grid cabin with a permaculture farm, fruit forest, and polyculture-raised garden beds is truly remarkable, and it warms my heart to see individuals like yourselves taking steps towards sustainable living. As I watched your video, I was struck by the passion and love you have for this project. The care and attention to detail that you put into every aspect of your homestead is a testament to your commitment to creating a truly special place. Your spiritual journey is an inspiration, and it gives me hope that we can all learn to live in balance with nature. In short, your video has left me with a sense of wonder and excitement for what the future holds for your eco-luxury boutique resort. I eagerly await the next chapter of your story and wish you all the best on your journey.👏
I guess this was recommended to me because I’m watching Martijn Doolaard. Love to see more over here! I find it very interesting how people create their home
Beautiful ! I live myself high up in the mountains in Dovre nationalparc , and have restored Sveetun lodge for 3 years, mountainlife is magic 🙏🏾🏔love from Norway
Thank you for sharing your inspiring journey with us. I am very excited to see the following episodes as you grow into whatever the desires of your heart include. Bless you and your beloved family, dear.
I love the property , looking forward to seeing what you do with it. Sound like you do know where to start, you must have temporary housing while building and or renovating . It may be a little rough going at times if you don't have farming or construction experience but you will figure it out. Best of luck to you and your family.
Basic tool for those bushes locally in Montenegro is called " Kosijer - cosiyer " or in english (billhook,hedging-bill or something like that. There is a ton work to be done there as you already know ... I have no idea how experienced you are, or did you check what can or can't grow there. Main issue with that particular place is water. There is also venomous snakes, bears, wolfs etc... That house you bough looks like was used for animal lately. And it looks like they had even older houses next to it. Watch out for those rocky fences and rocky constructions surrounding house because snakes love it. Don't know how much money you paid for it, I do know that they tend to overprice it for strangers. Don't wish to discourage you but you need to be ready for a lot investing into it not only time and work but also knowledge and money. My suggestion is to always negotiate for better prices and to learn what tools are used for what. Also look into cascades to create levels of ground then on those levels of ground navigate rain water to gather it on bottom. Also use it to plant things on each cascade different. What I know grows well there is onion, garlic, patato, carrott, cabbage. Also look in what is profitable to sell on local market ( you need to start looking into profiting of it because before you notice money will be spent ) For example organic eggs are very profitable, if you can create a base of chicken for example organic natural eggs are 4euros per 10 eggs and if you produce 100eggs a day that could finance all the rest of your work step by step ... Bees are also very good, but be aware if not experienced or without knowladge. Look into local community to create connections and relationship. Many will look you like crazy but keep you spirit up. I moved out of Montenegro to earn some money to be able to come back and buy land and do similar thing you are planning to do there, but I would look to get land closer to river or spring that is lasting whole year. Because without water in wild it's very very nearly impossible... good luck and hope to see more of you update in upcoming time.
Thank you for your time and sincerity and great advice. We are looking out for snakes daily as mating seasons starts we will probably see a few, although up until now we have only seen 1 snake last year in spring and not the horned viper. I think with current technologies it can be easier living here and even grow a bigger variation of crops, fruit trees and bushes. I’m just going to experiment and try, and first find a whole lot of ways for harvesting water and adding soil. Next to making the little house livable for the end of this year. Would love to see you when you come back and have a drink.
@@Riannesstories 1st of all thank you for the invite, it would be a pleasure to have cup of tea together. Mentioning tea I think I saw " Sipurak " or in latin. " Rosa canina" that could be used as tea :D in some of those bushes around house you tryed to remove ... Putting new earth and building up cascades etc is proven method. I am happy you are going to put that work up there, because even work around house is good form of meditation and stress removal if approached in a certain way ... Also I am not sure at what altitude is that location but above some altitude one horn snake (Poskok) doesn't live on high altitudes, high altitudes is domain of locally known venomous snake called ( Sharka/Šarka or Šargan ) so depending of altitude there should be different type of snakes. It's advisable to always wear boots, even tho in my village we were mostly bare footed but we know where was safe to do so. Also this might be very hard smell but there is a way for example to scare of snakes for a while and that is to put a little bit of sulfur (sumpor local name) on old t-shirt and burn it, so then smell will scare of snakes... Also be aware that carbonized trees after open fire can attract snakes. And always in summer months watch out for branches of trees because of heat snakes go up on branches to cool down. So then it's dangerous for those who doesnt know because they could fall of branch or someone can grab a branch with a snake on it ... All in all good luck, wish you the best and I rly hope you manage to get water to your home. Other things like solar and internet will be much easier to get with new tech. Good luck and thanks for chossing Montengro.
Oh thank you again, highly appreciate all your advice and information. We are looking for leather boots, or do you think thick rubber will be good enough as well, and are between 900 -1000 meters above sea level. Mostly barefoot I believe that is so good for the soul. And indeed when you know the lands things are different. This year is all about observing for us and trying to grow a diversity of vegetables and fruits on small scale just to see what works and what doesn’t. For water I’m now looking at a combination of: constructing a water tank, water reservoirs, drilling a well, fog harvesting nets, condensation methods, but also making sure we harvest more water in the ground. And of course reusing the water several times. Let’s see what we will find out and discover. There is more then enough rainfall to capture to last the droughts- so that is good.
@@Riannesstories I do think that rubber boots are more then enough. Regarding water. Altitude you mentioned is like border zone for (Sarka/Sargan venemous snakes mostly but Poskok (one horn shouldn't be excluded). Be aware that in summer months temperature rises to + 40 degree Celsius so water harvest by mist nest wouldn't be an option. I know many use plastic 5k liter containers with those metal protection on sides or couple of those 200l blue round containers, but do your calculations ... Land get very dry in summer, and watering of plants in summer months is done very early in the morning when ground is coldest because during day or night ground is still too hot and evaporation can burn leafs and cold water can shock the roots .... I would highly suggest you to go around and walk around in villages met people and have a look into their garden and see how did they solve those issues on that location. And what are they growing. Locals should be friendly and ready to help. Language could be a little barrier with older people, but younger folks should be able to speak very well english. Best way for water harvest should be to put all reserves on lowest point and using permaculture canals guide it towards there. Also if you are looking to dig for water best to do it in summer because then water level is lowest ... you dont wish to find winter reserve underground and then in summer run dry on it ... but step by step 1st that roof, then solar, then inside of house etc ... watch out for quality of wood for roof construction and protect it well. Also look into protecting house from thunderbolt ( lightning while thunder ) and ground it well. You rly pick up a wild place in a bit wild country :D wish you the best of luck ...
Good luck with your project! I've been in Montenegro for the past few months, and have also fallen in love with the place. A true nature lover's paradise (at least at higher elevations!).
Looks like a beautiful property with a lot of potential... you mentioned wild boards🐗 and wolves 🐺 ... I would carry some kind of weapon when walking the grounds... Good luck 🙏👍
I immediately was attracted to your new channel. Many of us have dreams and a beautiful home is often one of them. We dream but always have to measure our dreams with our abilities and finances. I've seen enough videos of people overcoming the seeming lack of abilities with their determination but it is more difficult to overcome a lack of finances. When I cruise the internet and RUclips for my dream, I always am concerned with price. For some reason, people are always afraid or at least hesitant to state the cost of their dreams and projects. I then become disappointed. I usually then lose interest. So please give us an idea what this beautiful estate would cost and the costs of your upgrades. Many RUclipsrs in the midst of their project take breaks and visit other places to show. You could do that with other places both more expensive and less expensive than yours to keep people of varying finances interested. But please, don't ignore the costs. We care deeply. And good luck!
A shovel might have helped, but it was a dramatic start. Later one learns how much more the shovel can do. Everything is one step at a time. Brief moments of success are very important. Simple successes.
O yes , Montenegro is beautiful, I am from Ctoatia , living in Miami now. Visited Montenegro last year , and loveeeee it. Nature's paradise. Good luck from new subscriber.
Beautiful introduction to your concept of what's ahead. Very gentle and soft. Exciting too. Yes to permaculture and all things gloriously simple, exquisite and grounded. Hope to see you soon. I arrive in Tivat on 17 March.
@@Riannesstories ... hello dear Rianne - what a lovely reply from you. I'm so looking forward to meeting you, the other three :) and of course Perfect Sense and your new land based home. So exciting. I will find you when I get to Montenegro and we go from there :) ... big hugs from Australia.
I cannot wait to see what will you do with this place. I am amazed you have chosen a place looking that isolated and remote and so far inland , away from the sea. Best of luck with the project!
Bonjour Rianne. Magnifique projet que vous avez là. Vous ne savez pas vraiment par ou commencer mais commencez et petit a petit les choses se mettront en place. Courage et persévérence sont les maitres mots de votre nouvelle aventure. J'espère que de temps en temps nous aurons des nouvelles du bateau et quelques vidéos de la mer Adriatique. Au plaisir. Amitiés du sud de la France. Olivier.
Hi dear friend! Yessss we will be sailing and making videos on the feel the breeze channel as well. We just split them up because not everyone enjoys this adventure as much as I do 🤣 and yes indeed step by step. Thanks for the encouragement ❤
I followed you as I saw “Feel the Breath” on the mast in Porto Montenegreo. I knew you bought some property somewhere in Montenegro. Never thought you did this! It’s so cool! If you need any help with the roof or any other construction I’m in it if you want. I’m now in Serbia but it’s not a problem and everything is discussable.
Purchase price? Elevation? Temperature range (especially winter lows)? Annual precipitation? How far to the nearest village, to the nearest mid-size city? Amenities in the nearest village and the nearest mid-size city?
Nou wat een leuke verrassing ook zo 🤩🤍🙏 ik produceer een keer in de zoveel tijd een vlog, niet elke week. Hoop dat je het leuk blijft vinden ☺️ Momenteel druk bezig met de eerste volledige aflevering. Hele fijne dag en wat is Montenegro toch mooi hè?
@@Riannesstories Ga het zeker volgen, erg mooie locatie hoor, erg rustig en een sterrenhemel die super moet wezen denk ik. En wat een mooi groot water reservoir, zo zie je ze maar weinig.🥰
Very brave move and we are happy to have you here. If you need anything, help or advice we me and my family would be more than happy to help. Good luck 🤞
Wow! So beautiful area! I just discover you and your project at the same time, we (my family and me) have just found our place for à similar project in France ! 😊 glad to see that, you have a new follower now ! Wish you the best ! 😃
No, nowhere for the moment. We think about it but we are absolutly noobs with making videos and social média 😅 maybe we will, will let you know if that happens :) congrats to you too ! :D
I got hooked on your sailing vlog and this project looks like it will be amazing to follow! Please consider showing costs of the property and the improvements you make for those of us that fantasize about doing this ourselves. Beautifully filmed, btw!
Hi Walter, great to have you around here as well. Will take costs into account and so great that you are fantasizing about this. It is a beautiful day project of the heart. Totally bold and audacious, but that is what dreams are for ;)
its official: rural european offgrid video content is completely gentified. we have: skinny white women in silly hats, emotional soundtracks, drine shots, land rovers, puffy jackets, and asmr voiceover
I saw your message on Instagram. So great to meet you and what a beautiful property you have. When you are around would love to see if we can meet. Have a great day!
Good luck, all the best. I hope you guys will succeed. Temperature differences between summer +40 and winter -20 can be very problematic for any plant.
Thank you - within Montenegro and different regions you have very diverse climates and temperatures, we have a climate similar to my home country the Netherlands
well good luck, i hope you have enough time and money for such adventure. Montenegro is old and beautiful country with good people so if you endure you will make a great home for your family :)
Im subscribing because I’d like to see more of your vision come to life. You should probably get as stihl trimmer to help with bush clearing. Much better than the car. 😉
Lovely place, you may want to consider getting a coupla dogs for out there, they would love a life out there with you. Plus they will keep you company as well as protect from other critters. Cant wait to see what you do with the place as you move into the future. Cheers from Down Under.
Interesting how you bypassed Croatia, you've got all the ruins you want there but the price will be hefty and the red tape even worse. A house like this in the mountains of Montenegro would be inexpensive and probably easy to purchase, although renting would probably be a better option. Many Euros dream of escaping to places like these but fail to realize many of the issues that come along with living and rehabilitating these backwoods Balkan retreats.
A channel that kind of remindes me of Martijn Doolaard`s. Can`t wait to see what you gonna bring up next. Subscribeddd!
was thinking the same thing
Same
Was thinking the same.
He’s likely the inspiration for all of us

Montenegro is amazing, it was in our radar for long time, I was told people are nice and mostly women are very easy going and thankful people.
Montenegro is everything you have been told and a lot more 🤍
Dobrodošli u Crnu Goru! Uvek se radujemo dobrim i plemenitim ljudima, a vi to očigledno jeste, kad ste u ovoj divljini prepoznali lepotu!

This is just absolutely beautiful Rianne! God bless family. Much love!
You are good story teller. Can not wait to see the whole process of renovation.
Welcome to us! Wish you all the best in our country! ❤️🍀
Make these beautiful videos at least 10 minutes long..The algorithm picks this up..
Generate a bit more money for yourself.

Ohhh thanks for following us so long and joining me in this crazy journey as well 🤩🙈 can use the support 🤍💪
I am with you! You can do this. ❤
if it's a karst and limestone area, the rocks are probably full of groundwater. Try to figure that out and see whether you can make a well.

Thank you Igor, we will be needing a lot of help. We have now three workers to help us with the walls and roof. 🙏
Purchase price? Elevation? Temperature range (especially winter lows)? Annual precipitation? How far to the nearest village, to the nearest mid-size city? Amenities in the nearest village and the nearest mid-size city?
Will take them into account in the video about why I choose this plot of land 🙏 will let you which episode it will be.

I got hooked on your sailing vlog and this project looks like it will be amazing to follow! Please consider showing costs of the property and the improvements you make for those of us that fantasize about doing this ourselves. Beautifully filmed, btw!
Hi Walter, great to have you around here as well. Will take costs into account and so great that you are fantasizing about this. It is a beautiful day project of the heart. Totally bold and audacious, but that is what dreams are for ;)
Plan your work, work your plan. Live your dreams. Good luck to you.
Looking forward to seeing more of you!!!
Short while ago I saw another Dutch lady and her husband live in the extreme north of Norway… the Dutch are literally everywhere 😂❤
hahahah we try to....we used to sail the seas for hundreds of years
Quite the life journey project in front of you and your family, best of good fortune! 😎👍
This was a barn, of course. The prospect must be daunting!
Looks beautiful, I wish you a lot of luck!
its official: rural european offgrid video content is completely gentified. we have: skinny white women in silly hats, emotional soundtracks, drine shots, land rovers, puffy jackets, and asmr voiceover
Now what?
@@FuhqEwe soon they'll find a new culture to gentrify once the content revenue slows down and sell their homesteads
@@daltonbedore8396 To which culture does European off-grid living belong?
This guy thinks he knows everything. You dont like it , dont watch.......know it all
@@badgeswedontneednostinking5571 i dodnt watch it. know it all
Success with this new chapter of your life!
Love your video I own a huge piece of property Montenegro I’m actually going back to next year To remodel a 400 year old house❤
I saw your message on Instagram. So great to meet you and what a beautiful property you have. When you are around would love to see if we can meet. Have a great day!
Good luck, all the best. I hope you guys will succeed. Temperature differences between summer +40 and winter -20 can be very problematic for any plant.
Thank you - within Montenegro and different regions you have very diverse climates and temperatures, we have a climate similar to my home country the Netherlands
well good luck, i hope you have enough time and money for such adventure. Montenegro is old and beautiful country with good people so if you endure you will make a great home for your family :)
Wow so beautiful indeed 👏👏👏
🤩🤍 yess
Looking forward to the next episode. Good luck!
Dejo mi comentario para que el algoritmo ayude a que se vea más. Saludos buen video.
Thank you 🙏
Im subscribing because I’d like to see more of your vision come to life. You should probably get as stihl trimmer to help with bush clearing. Much better than the car. 😉
What a beauty 🙏❤️🏴

Hey I am looking to volunteer with you for the space .
@@MGX5683 you can contact me on project.riannesstories@gmail.com
This is fabulous I love this place well done
Keep it up see you soon CHEERS 👌🏻👌🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks 🙏
What a stunning place !
Lovely place, you may want to consider getting a coupla dogs for out there, they would love a life out
there with you. Plus they will keep you company as well as protect from other critters. Cant wait to see
what you do with the place as you move into the future.
Cheers from Down Under.
Australia one of my favourite countries 🤩🙏 we just adopted a dog. Was left behind and really skinny. He just stays around and is enjoying him self
Interesting how you bypassed Croatia, you've got all the ruins you want there but the price will be hefty and the red tape even worse. A house like this in the mountains of Montenegro would be inexpensive and probably easy to purchase, although renting would probably be a better option. Many Euros dream of escaping to places like these but fail to realize many of the issues that come along with living and rehabilitating these backwoods Balkan retreats.
Will make a video where I explain this
Great to have you here
#227. I'm looking forward to your families journey. I wish you the best of luck.
Hi #227 great to have you here 🤩🤍
Incredible
Bonjour Rianne, this should be interesting. You have your work cutout with that building. Looks like it needs alot of work.
Wish you the best of luck!
Hedge shears is very useful.
