Dawn Till Dusk In Our Shipping Container Home

I have to say this was one of my favorite days so far living off grid, and I'm so glad we got to capture a lot of the moments, from baking sourdough with our new little starter, to sledding in the snow for hopefully the last time this April, and all of the snippets in between. If you enjoy these longer-form videos, please let us know in the comments because we'd love to keep making them in the future : ) PS, one of the shots in this video was shot on a different day, curious if anyone will notice which one!

Big love,
Lou, Dana, Max & Freja

Oh I was also going to say, my mum is a Montessori teacher and agree, it's amazing what babies and kids can do! Go max go for the fire making! Our little guy is almost 3 and since 1.5 he's loved his knife (there's a brand called Kiddikutter that makes great serated ones), and he helps cook dinners every night. Such great play for them!

I remember watching those van life videos years ago! It is so sweet to watch your family grow and the journey you create throughout these years. Sending love

Thanks for the lovely - day in the life. Spending 3 months off grid myself, really grounded myself in the necessities and simple things. - cheers.

I wish I had been kid living with you, loving parents and nature so beautiful, so nice to watch you also with your dog

I would love a full video that is similar to the first 4 minutes of this one. It creates such a calm feeling inside me. Love the vid and you three!

[susanmlister]

to a video about living in your feminine off grid or whatever you said! 💗💗💗

[esthergerlitz]

It so sweet to see Max talking ❤ y’all have such a beautiful family

[alexpfeiffer]

Everything you said about motherhood and watching your baby grow is everything I've been feeling with my 8 months old!

[rachelaske]

Absolutely yes, to more long form videos. This was beautiful. A true inspiration for the future I fantasize about with my partner and our life.

Thank you for sharing your day with us. ❤

I know what you mean about time passing fast Dana. Mine being 14 and 15 now! Todler age is such a wonderful period, I recal the wonder from your video here actually in a nice way, like it´s part of me and not lost on me. The excitement of new words popping out, I remember enjoying that time SOOO much. And just think of the days when he will be able to express himself in sentences of his own, - there is so much to look forward to. And his personality will reveal itself more and more in different ways. Even with the loss of aspects in connection and role as a mom to teenagers, it´s like a whole portal rich with information and initiations, really reorienting. But still so many memeories had together and it touched me to think of the priviledge it has been to and still is to see these souls become their own people ❣ I´m just now starting to get excited about making space to explore my own creativity more in different ways.

Watched your shipping container videos, caught up to present and I realized I'm addicted to you're guys energies! So I went to the start of the van build right through the boat build and now back to shipping containers build. Looking forward to you're next videos! Hope all is well, I'm so inspired by everything you guys have done. I'm currently in the process of moving a tiny pull behind camper to my property in town to convert to off grid living 😊

Peace n love from loch lomond Scotland ❤ love watching your good vibes 👍✌

[oscrar]

This is such a beautiful video, it felt like watching a movie.
I wish I grew up the way you're raising Max ❤

[jenmitchell]

It's so cool living in central NY myself and knowing what day this was. That was a surprise snow! We haven't gotten that much snow this winter, but I'm ready for spring!

[andrealubberts]

Beautiful video:) Thank you for sharing. Love the longer - form vlog. And love your sweet little family. I have been following you for a couple years now. It's so cool to see where you have ended up - off grid and with a little sweetie in tow. You two are such great parents! That little human is pretty lucky to live the life you created.

[lynnemac]

I recently started baking bread and it came out so good, really enjoyable process. Love seeing Freya sleeping they are so peaceful and it reminds me of my dog when he splet, I could watch him for hours x

[clairebattersby]

I missed you last week. I hoped your family was OK. However everyone deserves time off, so it’s all good 😊

That was really comforting to watch. Yes Dana, I would love to for you to expand on your famine prospective on homesteading. Lou’s skills and work ethic. Max and Freya are so lucky!
