    Hey "Travelling K".
    I've been following your channel since "Hunt for the Karavan". I was looking for alternative living situations to my own and I started watching your channel to see if a 'Karavan" was a serious alternative to my 3 bed in the waikato. I've watched you travel around the world and end up less than a hour away. It reminds me of an add from the 70/80s regaling the idea of "don't leave home till you've seen the country". Anyhoo... I've watched relationships grow, life been made and life been lost. I've seen life changing decisions been made and life changing directions been taken. I think I've been vicariously watching for about 6 or 7 years now and I want to tell you how much I appreciate your honesty and vulnerability and that of those around you. It must be scary at times to put your life on line. You are an admirable person deserving of everything good that comes your way. Your work is humble, honest and most importantly, entertaining.
    In short... Thanks Karen, keep making it, I'll keep watching it.
    I've got nothing going on, it's nice to see someone who has.🙂

    Awesome work, I think it's best to also have the exterior cladding as complete as possible prior to winter so was worth the time and effort. Now you can get a room lined and sorted and get the fire in and work away in a nice warm house finishing things off.

    In England we put a gold sovereign into the wall space for good luck….i knew somebody that found 8 in an old house wall during a refurbishment..great place for a time capsule….a newspaper or a letter..

    Just a tip, When using sprayfoam the can should be upside down otherwise you waste all the gas inside before the foam runs out.

    Wow, what beautiful views you have from those lovely big windows. You really have picked a gorgeous spot for the house to be built on. So slow and steady has paid off in the end, far better than having redo something for the sake of compliance. It’s going really well & all power to you Karen for rolling up your sleeves and getting stuck in. That insulation should keep you all warm and cosy, you’ve made a really neat job of it, well done 👏🏻

    It’s lovely to see you so much happier. You will certainly be in your cosy home for winter. It’s really nice to see an authentic someone on the other side of the world making a beautiful home and gardens. I first met you when you met David on the canal in England. I live in Ontario in Canada.

    A job well done K .knew you'd pass the inspection it looked so good iyou've been very thorough in your work .Here in Canada its nearly Spring so I'm guessing ts its fall or autumn for you .We had a strange winter ,not too much snow, quite wet but we did have some -20c. I'm almost finished the rehab course from my stroke and feel alm0st back to normal..
    With the exterior ipretty much done this winter you'll be able to do the drywall and decorating and you'll be snug..
    Take care, my best regards to you all ......keep smilingX XX

    It looks like you have enough scraps of insulation to do the interior walls as well. You'd be surprised at how effective that is at keeping heat/cold in a room, as well as quieting the space.

      No fencing to keep a dog inside of makes it too much of a work load on a woman who is alone on a large acreage with a toddler. When Reese is a few years older he can help with looking after a dog and keeping it exercised with lots of play and running around time.
