Two years of renovating an old house and garden in Sweden - everything I did so far

I renovate a small house in southern Sweden, with reused and pre-loved building material. I also try to grow some of my own food in the very overgrown garden... Welcome to follow along my second year of renovating.

A girl after my own heart, unfortunately, I am too old now. What an inspiration you are to young girls to get in there and do things for yourself without being told 'that's a man's job'!! Good for you, well done!!

When I was at school the option for girls was housework cooking & neddlwork I wanted to do woodworking no your a girl it's lovely to day to see that girls do there own things bless you ps I'm 80 but still enjoy watching you

Det är så kul att fler yngre personer som tycks se skönheten i dessa gamla hus. Så många som är övergivna som behöver kärlek. Jag vill absolut själv äga ett sånt litet rött hus

Wow l have just found your channel and sat quietly watching and truly enjoyed every moment. Love the adventure you have chosen and look forward to following you. We are grandparents now with 5 title ones but 30 yrs ago we build our home with our 3 children grew vegetables etc kept chickens pretending it was our homestead. Best life ever. Enjoy every moment of yours and feel proud of you have achieved x
