    My neighbour lived in his old stone house for the entirety of his 85years, did zero upkeeping since his parents past away & never left the house in his last 30years. Neighbours shopped for him & would leave it on his doorstep...he wouldn't allow anyone in his house.
    On him passing 5years ago, I was fortunate to go inside & I was totally amazed at what I saw. It was just like stepping back in time 50+ years ago...his kitchen was a fire pit stove & solid stone worktop balanced on solid stone uprights.
    The house has since been completed renovated.

    46 years old Swede here. I would guess the old man died in 2004 year, or during the end of 2003 year, and during the last year(s) of his life didn't have power or possibility to do any upkeeping. Before that he at least tried (the typical Swedish Christmas lamps in the windows, even if he lived where noone saw them except perhaps the mailman!) The woman's clothes could as well be his old mother's, or maybe he was once married but his wife died suddenly or left him, and he never threw the clothes away, maybe dreaming some strange dream that she would eventually return? Or maybe she was his sister which would explain that there is no real bedroom for two in the house? I noticed some details on the ground floor were clearly from 1990s or early 2000s (like his surprisingly newish landline telephone and some of the grocery store paper bags), but on the upper floor the grocery store paper bags were of a 1980s style just like I remember them from my childhood then. Maybe the upper floor was left in a mess when the man got old and couldn't walk up the stairs any more. Probably he lived his whole life in this place and it wasn't any problem as long as he had his power, but finally he got too old and couldn't move, let alone take care of the house, but still refused help (or refused to ask for help) from the local authorities, There are, or at least used to be, lots of people in Sweden living like this man, alone in a small wooden house deep in the forest, where time stood still since their mother died or something like that... At least this man had electricity, a landline phone, a mailbox and it seemed he had some contacts with the outside world.

      I know it all too well. I bought a house that was built in 1924, I lived there for 20 years and just sold it because of health reasons I couldn’t keep up with repairs and all, I stuck it out as long as possible because it was my home. I thought as long as it stood, I had a roof over my head. It had started crumbling down around me. When someone came in and looked at it, they did a test with some kind of meter to test how much moisture was in the walls and they were full. It almost costed me the sale, but someone finally bought it. It broke my heart. It was the only home I ever owned. It’s been a year now and I still cry over it. It may have been crumbling, but it was still my home. I raised my son there. Now I live with my son and his wife. She is great daughter-in-law and all, I have no complaints in that area, but I feel like a burden. There’s nothing like having your own. Even if it is falling down around you.

    Hey Lesley, I just rewatched this video of your explore together with Danny. Already at the beginning it was interesting to see how challenging the hike was to finally reach the location. - I can imagine, that this wood house was back in the active days quite a cozy and comfortable home. Very typical nordic style from the outside with these red and white colours, which I have seen many times in Finland as well. - I saw an electric lamp at a bedside and a switch on a wall. So the former owner even had electricity, also necessary for the fridge and freezer. - It is actually quite unique to see, that in this remote location was electricity and other equipment to have quite a comfortable life. - I also loved seeing how respectful you and Danny were approaching the probable life of the former owners. Despite of the heavy decay and the messed up state of some rooms there were still a lot of nice and charming details visible, especially in the living/dining room. - Once more a wonderful explore video with strikingly beautiful background music! Respect, my friend!
    I am already looking forward to your next explore adventure! - Stay safe, bro, many hugs, peace and kindest regards from Switzerland.

      I have a second cousin in Scotland (my dad's cousin), who is in her 90's and lives in the house where she was born. I am the only one of the extended family who has kept in touch and visit, and most of the relatives in Canada don't even know she exists. She never married or had children, and neither did her two brothers. So, maybe just that no one has the authority to do anything with the property?

      For others, living alone can be the only peace they have in their lives. If you lived in the city like I did, the worse sense of loneliness happens when you are surrounded by people but they still make you feel alone. Some people have been with people their entire lives and they have gone tired with the drama, the maintenance of connection or bonds that drift apart. These can be too overwhelming so they find peace by focusing on themselves. Living by themselves.Sadly, it is not their fault, its just a fact of life that happens.
      I know you are from a different culture so it may be difficult for you to understand.
      But have you ever felt the feeling that your closest friends doesn't know who you are? That you don't want your family to see that vulnerable side in fear of making them hurt or upset? Or you cannot trust your co-workers because work in the office is too professional for friendships. Well, you can see why people will choose to live more alone, but at peace.
      I hope you know how to take care of yourself.

    You opened the plastic covering the typewriter and left the typewriter exposed.

    Less I like.

    There is one relationship in this mortal life which effortlessly scores above all other known relationships on this Earth. Feeling confused? Don't scratch your head too much as that extraordinary relationship is none other than that of the Mother..!😊😊

      So many Swedes in the comments here know this house now, one said he was there a few weeks ago.
      This video is a prime example of how not to do Urbex.

    the red candle holder was typical Swedish and not a Menorah and the little houses may have been for Tomte, or gnomes... Swedes build them homes outside
    another wonderful documentary

    very nice and well preserved typewriter. Tears the packaging, pushes some buttons, leaves it uncovered, lefts... Thanks for preserving it :)

    I bet that the little building beside the house is food storage. It is very common here in Sweden

      Correct. Also a woman must have lived in the house. I belive she was the last survivor.

    Hello Lesley and Danny! Really cozy 🏠. I am thinking the hole in the back probably was cause for one big storm and the destroyed building was one sauna. It is not easy to write in beautiful machine 😂. Big hug to both 🤗 ❤ 😊👍
