Oh, I will have to check this out. 🤗
I think your YT channel has been hacked please read my IG DM
Such a beautiful story of how you met ❤ I sat with a smile through the whole video. You are so beautiful together 😍
And we have you to thank for that 😉❤️
❤️❤️❤️
Same Jonna, It was beautiful to listen to them both... 💖
I also adore that you watch them.😁
@@KalleFlodin Oh do tell more, you didn't mention that in your video. How was Jonna involved in the 2 of you two meeting? ❤
@@simonemeister8978 Jonna inspired Kalle to move out into the wild 💫
Back in 1970 i met a Swedish girl who was on holiday in London.We had two wonderful weeks in swinging London..She went back to Sweden and we wrote to each other and she decided to come to London and live together.After a few months i said we are going overland to India driving in a VW are you up for it yes was the answer.The trip took 6 months and i ending back in Stockholm completely broke.I started working in a bakery starting at 5 in the morning.Once we saved enough money to fly back to the UK.52 years later we are still together 2 sons and 6 grandchildren.We live in a small village in Kent.I grow my own vegetables and drive a 1991 240 Volvo Estate with 263.000 miles.Still a bit of a hippy at my mature age.
Hehe that's great, I like your brand loyalty to the girlfriend too ; )
❤❤
What a great feel-good story! Better than "When Harry Met Sally"!
I used to visit London in the 1970's and 1980's. I live in USA. I still write to friends that also live in Kent.
Great you found each other 😊
This made me smile SO MUCH!! I met my (now) husband on a train while solo travelling through Scotland, and 2 years later I moved here and we got married. You never know!
Wonderful
Lovely. My daughter met her friend in England during her 4 months final internship. She came back home to Belgium to leave and move back living together after a few months. Now +3years ago and they are happy and expecting a little peanut (baby). Happy Nana to be. 🥰
Sections on the train are called wagons in Dutch and English you can say that too. 😊
Carriage in English. I work as train crew. Wagon is very American but not used in UK.
What a heart warming story. My wife and I met on a blind date set up by my parents and her aunt and uncle when she was in Florida for a vacation. We spent nearly every day together while she was there and I knew immediately she was the one for me (it took her a bit longer. 😊) We were married forty-three wonderful years when she lost her battle with cancer. You two are both beautiful people and a beautiful couple! ❤️❤️
Forgot to answer the questions.
Crazy? Yep
Stupid? Maybe
Romantic? ABSOLUTELY!
I’m sorry to hear you lost your soul mate. I hope you will find love again in many forms in your future. Many blessings to you
Love to you Jeff!
much love jeff wishing you nothing but good health and happy life
That was such a sweet story! I'm sitting here with a big smile right now. 😊So happy you two found each other! ❤
Aw, so happy you liked it Leena ❤️
What a sweet story! Also very brave of Christine to go, following her dreams and see what is on her path!
I'm very she's this crazy and brave! ❤
I met my boyfriend over 10 years ago on a random bike ride. I was riding to the beach around 9pm and he was riding with a group of friends the opposite direction. One of his friends complimented my bike, which started up a quick conversation with an invite back to his house for a game of Foosball. He happened to live in my neighborhood so I agreed to a game since meeting new friends seemed way more fun than solo ride to the beach. Probably a crazy idea at the time but they all seemed really kind. Anyway, he and I ended up spending every day together after that initial meeting and now have 2 beautiful children together. Life is great ... good thing I took that chance meeting a stranger that is now my partner for life. 😊
I had a very very similar story with my husband. We are from different countries and also met in 2019 on Internet.
I immediately understood “ this is my husband” 😂😂😂 so I know what Kristine is talking about.
Love you guys❤ you made me smile ❤❤❤
I could understand so well what Christine meant when she said that she needed to contact you and come to you as that was exactly how I felt meeting my partner abroad. These kind of things really make me believe that certain things are just meant to be 🌱 Much love from next door, Finland! 🥰
Don't make dreams, make memories!
I was a Paramedic and an adventurer earlier in my life and I always had dreams of meeting a beautiful girl and living in the wilderness together but I never found the right girl that also wanted that. Now I am 69 years old and I'll probably never find her. I've had a good life, few regrets and very satisfied but still alone. I am so happy for you two.
They never talk over each other but help each other embellish their stories like a singing duet.
I love this. Absolutely beautiful. It's amazing how internet allows us to connect to likeminded people around the world - we're no longer limited by the close physical environment. Sure, in ways one could say we're less social and interactive nowadays.. But also the complete opposite. Social media can be such a cool place.
If it weren't for the internet, there are many of my friends I would never have met ❤
@@KalleFlodin You don't know how lucky you are. I've never found someone in my entire life, internet or not, in whatever country I've been in, that shared my idea of a happy life. I'm 42 now and I've given up on the idea of ever finding someone.
You're so right! We tend to forget that all this social media craziness can actually be for sometning good :) at least I can forget sometimes. Still, there are real people behind the content they create, what an amazing concept that the whole world can be connected that way. Thanks for the reminder, Max and Kalle.
@@LeutnantJoker don’t worry. It’s only a matter of time before the novelty wears off, she gets bored and moves back to the city and they’re both single again 😹. No relationship lasts anymore we all end up single in the end.
@wulfsorenson8856 Why so miserable! The energy you put into life is the energy you get back. Christine & Kalle are lovely together. I have every faith their relationship will survive. They want the challenge of this lifestyle. Good luck to them and may God bless you with some hope & happiness of your own.
What a blessing, finding a mate of the same vision and value; furthermore of good looks. What a match.💞
This got me a little misty. You're so lucky to have found each other. Please never take what you have for granted. Eight years ago I had this fear of being alone and just longed to have someone special, but out of stupidity, I settled. I spent the next seven years being mentally and physically abused, and only escaped after he almost killed me when he burned my apt down. Now I am free but still hoping one day that special someone will enter my life. Good luck to you both.
Unfortunately that’s the reality. These too will split up eventually when the novelty of cabin life wears off. Sad but true ☹️
@@wakingtheworld you’re going to make a great cat lady 🐈
What a beautiful love story ❤️ You guys are such a perfect match!👏🏻❤️ Thanks for sharing it with us! 🌲🙋🏼♀️🐺🏡
That's sweet of you to say, I'm so happy you liked it ❤
When you’re not searching for love is when you find your soul mate ♥️ I love you both SO much and I loved hearing your love story! Another amazing video Kalle!
Lots of love from Northern Minnesota ❄️❄️❄️
Thank you soooo much for sharing your personal story with us. I loved all the ladies on the train looking out the window 😆🥰 and Kalle's 33/42 questions! Very mature. Yes, Christine is right - we all have to take action towards making our dreams come true. 33 years ago on New Year's Day, I tore up my return plane ticket home and decided to make my home and my dreams come true on Vancouver Island on Canada's west coast. I have not yet, ever regretted my decision. May God continue to richly bless your beautiful union. 💦💫💞
Awww such a lovely and special story. The Universe works in very strange ways. You are both such beautiful people. 🍂💕
OMG! Your story are so alike mine and my hubbys. We actually met IRL at a wedding for a couple of hours the first time. But then we did not connect for about 6 months (even if we were on eachothers minds). When we got connected we chattade for 2 months/talked on the phone all waking hours when not working. And then our first date was 4 days. My friends and family were also so scared when I was saying I would travel to this mysterious man a couple of hours away. And here we are.......18 years later ;) . You both are amazing. Love your content. Kram Linda
Love your story! Here in Pennsylvania USA we call that section in this case a “passenger car” 🚂 the front is called the “locomotive” and the back is the “caboose”
A cargo car with no seats can ship goods/supplies across the country 😃
Love your videos!! 🌲 🏡 ☕️
In England it’s a carriage.
I don’t think we have a particular name for the face-to-face seats, I would call them table seats.
I’m in pa:) js
Where in Pa?
Omg this is hilarious to me as my boyfriend and I met on Instagram. And I hid it from parents too 🤣 What a cute story Kalle and Christine! ❤
This is so inspiring! Thank you for sharing your story! I love how Christine just knew that you're meant to be together.
When I'll meet my husband, I know I will just simply know, too. 🥰
Much love from the Hungarian countryside 🌈☀️
Alexandra
Wonderful story! A proof that when one feels this is the right person, it usually IS that one person in the whole world, 14 hours away, no matter what. Super that you two met so early in life :)
That sounds a bit similar to our story. 😀 Me and my husband met online over our mutual interest for off-grid living in 2015, he took a long journey to meet me, and we had a week-long "date" at my place in early December, then he came over again for ten days over yule and new years, and two weeks after that, he moved in. 😊
We still don't have our place though, still in limbo about where we're going to go.
What a lovely story. The way you’ve tried to impress each other, when you were already in love with one another, was so pure and genuine. Your video is like a message of hope for all of us out there, trying to find that special connection that you both have.☺️
I have actually also travelled in to the Swedish woods to meet a guy. 4,5h drive away from my place at Finland. Aand I'm moving in next spring. 🙈
..........and the rest was history! Love this story. Christine is lovely, inside and out. I see how these two mesh and get along so well, because they're both so laid back, and they really click with each other. Loved what she said at 22:18! So sweet. What a wonderful story of how you two met. Thank you for sharing! Thumbs up. Beth
What a nice story! You stick to your values and find your person, this is a very sweet message ♥️
So sweet and the background of your cabin , the logs , the firewood , etc. is so so beautiful !!❤
Lovely story!!! Sometimes you just know when you meet someone that you are meant to be together forever. That is how my husband and I felt when we met. Yesterday was our 21 year wedding anniversary.
My husband and I have a similar story in many aspects. Seventeen years later- we are so grateful. ❤😊 Best to you! We enjoy both of your channels. Thanks for sharing!
Yes, whether we want to call it law of attraction, quantum physics or something else, living intuitively truly does have a way of bringing to you to everything you need.
All in divine synchronicity - All good things come at the right time.
Throughout the whole video I was constantly saying "aww" :) You both are so sweet and I am so happy for you!
Such a beautiful story 😍 I had a crazy start with my husband too, something inside just knows and flows with it.
Your story is so beautiful, true intuition, sincere knowing you had to be together. So happy for both of you. Great you walked through the wall of fear that's projected by so many...
Beautiful story of finding love…a year after my divorce I told my 7 year old son that I was ready to date and explained what that was about. One week later I had a leaning fir tree that concerned me so called a friend for an arborist recommendation. I’d had jokers in my land that were clearly not professionals…I wanted a professional. My friends arborist/forester called and said he moved from the area but recommended a man that he said he would and has trusted his life with…that man came to my door almost 19 years ago…I knew what I didn’t want (had that in my 26 year 1st marriage) but I had ti get crystal clear about what I DID want. I wrote it all down and drilled down to my 5 highest values for a mate…I completed that list one week before meeting my (now) husband.❤ He is the polar opposite from my first husband. I would not have been ready for this relationship had I not done the year alone, raising my son and figuring out who I was. Love comes when you love yourself and are content with yourself-you are a whole human. ❤❤
Oh my goodness!! This is like a storybook love story! Thank you so much for sharing such a lovely and intimate part of your lives with us. You are both such wonderful and amazing people and the fact that you found each other and are living the life that you both dreamed of is just so heartwarming ❤ I wish you both many many beautiful years together. It is evident in your faces how much you love each other! 🥰❤️
I’m the 70 year old and it’s amazing the similarities of our stories. Unfortunately I was seeking a soulmate to share my dream of living off grid. I met someone I thought was too good to be true. Texting for hours n weeks. I was skeptical and my intuition told me she was a fake. And she was lol
I’m still seeking lol
Oh im so sorry . I hope you will find you partner in life 🥰
Your story is so relatable and heartwarming. My fiancee and I started our journey somewhat similarly. She was doing her Ph.D. in Germany at the time, and I was 2500km away in Macedonia. But we'd known each other for years but didn't really get to know each other until we had our first date. And then after Covid hit, we didn't see each other for 5 months. Long story short, we realized after barely half a year that we were meant to be together. I love your videos and you are always so kind, you deserve all the attention.
You guys are so sweet. Thank you so much for letting us in on this story.
I just got to watch this video now 😅 I have a similar crazy story , the way i met my husband :) only thing we met on a dating app, and I moved in with him after our first date , and the rest is histroy. Been married for 10 years :) sometimes you just gotta have a leap of faith
What a beautiful story - you are clearly meant to be together. A real lesson of how following your heart can lead to wonderful things - it is how my wife and I got together and we have now been married for 25 years🥰🥳
So glad to see longer videos especially when it comes to things like this. It can't be explained in one or two words..so we thank you for taking the time to talk and the hours to edit and film this. We appreciate you both!!!
Much love from the eastern Kentucky hills in the US
Thank you Brian ❤🙏
@@KalleFlodin you are most welcome. I get lost in your videos. Your voice and accent is so calming that it helps with my anxiety. Especially all the gorgeous scenery and backdrops from the cabin help as well.
@Brian Adams totally, I started watching Kalle round about the time when I discovered I was anxious...his videos were so calming, the scenery too, that was 2 and a half years ago and I still watch him and Christine now. till today. Thanks for the great work Kalle. Out here, we really appreciate what you do !
A Lovely Story… you are a very blessed man! God Bless you both!!!🙏🙏👌❤️
Watching this video for the 5th time... My Husband and I were so very happy for you guys. We are so glad you both have gotten together for love, life, support. Live your dreams... never question the definition of why you sought this lifestyle out! We pray for you guys with winter here... always stay strong and try to you both. It is a life line to the life you are living. I gave up everything, leaving friends and family to be with the man of my dreams and soul mare. I do not regret it.. I’ve been trying to survive aggressive breast cancer... took chemo and then decided to to alternative treatment. All is going well. Recent bloodwork came back with zero tumor markers... I believe the body has a way to heal it’s self. You both have been so great about healthy living and recipes. We are blessed with you both we look everyday for new videos. Please don’t stop... it keeps me going through the cancer fight. God Bless you all. Please keep with the videos... they are my inspiration and up lift me, and give me peace and hope for a extended life to come...
This story is simply great! And the message behind - to take actions, don't wait - is so important. Thank you for sharing!
Lovely, pure story ❤ No hidden agendas, just seeking the truth of what your heart drew you to and in the process love came too! I love both your countries and have visited Copenhagen the most many, many times and traveled around. Such an interesting, sweet story!
This is so charming , almost like some kind of fairy tale come true . Everybody hopes for just such an outcome. How fortunate you both are . It was such a joy to watch .
What a romantic story!! I am so happy for you both, because I think you found your soul mate. Maybe serendipity played an important part in your story? Who knows...
Aw this is so sweet, thanks for sharing you two ❤
The train wagon in English is carriage x also Cristine, You find love when you stop looking. That's when I met the love of my life as well.
I’ve watched your channel from the beginning, so hearing your stories together has been wonderful and I’m so very happy for you both!! 💜👍
I was smiling from ear to ear listening to your story 🥰 And I am so happy for you that you found each other!
Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful story!
Such a lovely story guys!!Always enjoying videos of you together!!
Y'all are so sweet! Your story made my heart swell for you guys!
Such a beautiful story! So so happy for you both! ♥️
Always so relaxing to listen to you both and thanks for sharing this lovely love story ☺
Such an amazing story! Thanks for sharing. So true in my life right now to follow my dream...no one will place it in my lap.
That’s beautiful, it was supposed to be🙏🍀✨ I wish you a lots of Love❤️
Brilliant video, thanks for sharing. My dear wife and I have been together for 53 years and we too had unlikely start. You stirred up some old memories. Loved hearing about yours, Thank You
Wonderful story.Love it.Thanks for sharing.
Your story is truly uplifting and inspiring! I am just where you were Christina; feeling I just have to do this on my own. You have given me the encouragement to forge ahead with my vision of living quietly and peacefully in the woods....Bless You Both! 😊🙏
Awww this reminds me of the Movie You've Got Mail or Sleepless in Seattle. So sweet. ❤❤❤
Oh I adored this so much, even though I more or less knew your story from various mentions on previous videos... It was so nice listening and watching you both chat together 💖
So precious a love story, thank you for sharing. The stars in your eyes are so apparent. 💜🙏
It was wonderful. Thank you both 🥳💞
Such a sweet and beautiful video and story Kalle and Christine 💖🧡💖
Such a lovely and heartwarming video! 🥰 Thank you for sharing, wishing you all the happiness in the world ❤️
I just started following you and when I saw this video I had to watch it. So happy for you two finding each other😊
You're both very brave, in several ways. Such inspiration!
Love, love your story ❤️. Thanks for sharing!
Such a beautiful story, you are perfect for each other, I was smiling throughout. Reminded me of how Anthony and I met. We met through a dating website, wrote to each other for a couple of weeks before meeting in November. We spent the whole of the Christmas holidays together and he proposed 2 months later. We married and are still together and happy 17 years later. I wish the same for you guys.
Great story. Thanks for sharing and congrats on the life you two are building together!
Beautiful and inspirational couple! Thank you for sharing your story. All the best wishes for the future
Loved this video! So amazing how you both met and all that has led you to where you both are now in relationship and life❤️ So beautiful!
Begin to take action, don't wait. Really good advice. Set goals and begin the journey.
I am sooo glad you guys shared this!! So cute, and such a fun story! I just recently met someone and we have that same crazy connection and we “just know”, so it was amazing to be able to relate so much with one of my fav RUclipsrs! You guys are the absolute cutest 🥰
It is such a rare thing to see so beautiful, clear, honest & amazing souls like you two are, guys! You are people of their principle as I am and I think it is an amazing example for all of us and also the future generations! You are so brave to follow your hearts and dreams and the Universe awarded you to meet each other and share your experience with us. I have very similar experience with my partner - he joined my life in a time of loneliness and when I gave up on a dream to find my soulmate. So I guess the key should be to stick to our values and whoever is meant to be for us will find the way to our heart. Thank you again for the beautiful, adventurous and heartmelting story! May your wild hearts be forever together ♡ Much love to you both! Vicky from small Bulgaria
Thank you so much for sharing your story, this is such a great inspiration🤗 You two are really a lovely couple💗
Such a beautiful story Kalle and Christine! There were so many awwww moments. Thank you for sharing it with us! ❤❤
Much love from Toronto
This is such a great video. You two are so perfect together. What a wonderful way you two have meet.
This video will inspire many. It is truly marvelous the life you manifested. 💜🙏🏼
That was such a delightful and heartwarming video. Thank you for sharing your story! I especially love that you both used the guided questions to learn more about each other during your first date. And that Kalle “accidentally” put on Christine’s favorite music. ❤
So beautiful! Thanks for sharing your story.
You two are so adorable! It blesses my heart how sweet you both are to each other.
Such an amazing and beautiful story! Very inspirational! I wish you much happiness! 💞
