After 6 years of full time van life and travel I have bought my dream land and plan to create an off-grid homestead! Occy and I would love for you to join us on this journey and learn with us along the way!

Well what a way to round out 2023!! Thank you so much for always showing up and being so positive this year. Appreciate you all more than words can say 💛 See you in 2024!!

I definitely think Simon has earned his own reserved parking at the property, what a champion, I hope he can stick around for a long while!

keep the brick raw unpainted, it will help with the cooling in the summer

[rosek]

Simon’s right about the brick, keep it as is.😀 You have wonderful friends Max, the place looks great!

[noxlove]

The scream I screamed when he painted the ceiling 😭😭😭. The wood was so beautiful. Thank God Simon saved the brick feature. Wonderful job, a week was a tight deadline.

Max, you have one of the most positive and supportive communities on YouTube. I think you can attribute that to your authenticity, your kindness and your ability to tell your story through truly beautiful filmed and edited videos. Now that you have your basic needs met you can take your time and build your dream home. Well done everyone!

Simon is right not only you are keeping a part of the house but the contrast with white makes it more interesting.
😊🥰🌸

Wow the before and after videos are incredible! The exposed brick was a good decision and I can’t believe you got it done with $2500!!

[stevens-buk]

Thanks for all your content. I celebrated solo this year as my wife, Belinda's 36yr old brother passed away unexpectedly ans is in South Africa to support her dad. We are both wearing the "Be kind, always" teeshirts! In separate hemispheres. See you soon mate, thanks again Stephen

Max, I was on a cruise from Galveston, Texas and in an elevator, a young woman recognized my sweatshirt - be kind always - Max and Occy - she stopped me and said, 'I love Max and Occy, watch them on You Tube all the time'. Cudos for your reno and looking forward to more of you and Occy! Have a great 2024!!

Max, Simon, Ren you absolutely made the cabin sing a new life, love it! Simon, I'm definitely with you on keeping the bricks.
Wishing you all a truly wonderful New Year. Heaps of love 🧡 🌱 🎉 ⭐ 🦋

[douglashoward]

Shoutout to Simon and Ren for all the help pulling the renovation off. Happy New Year to all 🎉 Max hoping your 2024 is full of happiness and joy! Cheers 🥂

[suzcruize]

Max, you shine through adversity and uplift the collective community. You are a beautiful soul and I thank you for sharing your stories and taking us along for the ride. My heart always warms when I see another installment to watch. I also enjoy renovations and the joy the end result brings. So much better when there are friends to lend a hand. All the best for 2024 and many new land adventures 🎉.

Simon was right! The Bricks look great with the flooring and love the white walls too!

[taketothehighwaydotcom]

"Pretty bloody good" is right! WOW, what a transformation! And I love the natural exposed brick! Really nice accent.

[KelmieJBigelow]

Simon was totally right! Too much white is not a good thing. It makes an artistic point in that room to leave it in its original colors!!
Happy New Year Max & Occy also Simon & Ren!! 2024

What a beautiful testimony to who you are and what you’re about. Your Reno is warm, cozy and perfect. Love the fireplace brick. Adding your G-Ma’s box to the house, enhances the sweet vibe.
Your friend’s Simon and Ren are such a blessing.
Thank you for sharing, what is possible in life.
Healthy and joyful blessings Max and Occy💞

[jennifermoody]

I also agree with Simon and the brick. I also think you are so blessed to have good friends who will come and work with you. What a treasure! Loved the sight of Occy just being "fanned" by the blower. Too sweet. You've done a lovely job, Max. Congrats to you and to all who have helped you with it!😘

[ritabandita]
