Good morning!
Welcome back to a new video.
This is our one year house renovation story.
Oopsie.
Ah, there we go.
Did you go in with the right feet?
I don't remember.
Good luck.
One bag after.
Two bags.
Three bags.
Looks good.
See you next time.
Oh my god.
Bag one.
Two.
Three.
Four.
Five.
Six.
Seven.
Eight.
Nine.
One more bag.
Ten is done.
We have finished.
Oh, we have a curtain.
We have a window.
Yeah, I think so.
I think it's okay.
Echo.
It's nice when things...
Okay.
The ceiling is high.
The ceiling is not that...
Oh, I can touch it.
The ceiling looked really disgusting.
Obviously, it doesn't look disgusting anymore and I could touch it.
I can still touch it, but I really have to jump.
It looks disgusting.
I did a good job.
That's our kitchen.
I really don't like the idea that this...
Good.
Dude, leave it like that.
How smart we are.
Oh.
What are you doing?
Ready?
Yeah.
It's a big window though.
Finished one window.
Wait.
Oh.
Nice concrete floor.
Cementing.
All done.
Not a big fan of the foam, but...
Who knew?
But yeah, as you see, it looks pretty good.
Much more different.
We are all done.
Our sink also joined in on the first day pretty much because this here all was disgusting
and I didn't even want to use it.
I didn't even know if water is running.
I had no idea, but we did not want to use what they had.
So we got a sink.
Temporary.
We put on 80 cents piece of wood and it's still like that.
I mean, we have made our countertop, but we haven't finished it.
It's still working.
It's a bit falling down because it's soaking all the water, but it's still standing.
And for 30 euros sink with tub, really good.
Really good that I bought.
We did.
So it's still standing.
Probably is going to go outside after because we want to buy a new sink and everything.
The sink.
That was 22 euros for that sink.
Yeah.
Let's get rid of the old one.
And here is the new sink.
Evie, we have water.
We have water.
Careful.
Open it.
Open.
Everything.
There will be a playlist down below to see all the videos in full length.
Second layer where the sink will go.
This is our fridge.
Obviously, it is the first thing that arrived in this house before we even had electricity,
before we even had anything.
This was the first thing we got.
We bought pretty much.
Used.
We bought a fridge.
How do you like that?
Cool.
We have a fridge.
That we forgot.
It's my thing.
Has been through a lot.
One more dusty job we have to do.
We did it.
I'm sweet.
You okay first?
I'm okay.
We have bumped it quite a few times and outside it doesn't look that good but it's working
perfectly inside.
Then we have our freezer which came much later because we didn't need to freeze anything.
We were like saving up.
We did not need a freezer with all our spices.
This is our cooker that also joined quite fast because we ran out of gas in our van
so we needed somewhere to cook.
We're actually cooking on the fireplace that was here.
Yeah, we already had it from yesterday.
A soup.
It's a soup.
A vegetable meatball soup.
We're just preparing it on our nice looking cooking fire.
Look at this.
Burning beautifully.
Nice.
And it's already hot.
You can even use the oven if you want.
Burning hot in there.
You can cook a cake literally.
I don't have a thermostat in there.
But yeah.
We're gonna eat.
We're doing a small breaky.
But what I want to say is that it actually broke after one week of...
Not even a week of using it.
And a person had to come here and check it and see why it's not working and bring us
a new one.
So this was the only person that came to fix something in the house.
Which was just like a cooker.
So yeah.
We're really proud of that because we have done pretty much...
No.
Not pretty much.
We have done everything ourselves.
No one has come here to inspect anything.
So I hope it's all structurally safe.
But I'm pretty sure so.
It was actually worse when we arrived here.
Now we have made sure that the ceiling is sitting correctly.
And it does not just collapse down.
So pretty much we have done a really good job.
Yesterday and the past few days we were organizing the whole thing.
Because all of this one was in the other bedroom.
So pretty much to get something you needed to go there.
But the time you got there you forgot what you wanted.
And it was just like a long trip.
It was feeling like you were living in a big, big, big house.
Where you have to do a lot of steps to get something.
So we brought everything out here.
We organized it for now.
As we go we will change it again.
It's a bit squishy in here.
Put them in here because we're going to be doing a lot of work outside.
And we don't want everything to get dusty again for like another 24 hours.
So this is becoming our guest bedroom and our kitchen.
Yeah.
It's an old house.
And this is our living room now.
Enjoy it.
It's your last word.
We have problems here.
I want to see what's revealing here.
What are we doing again?
Like nice lamps hanging down.
We're going to put a window in.
Done.
And here it is.
Start putting on the ceiling.
We have finished the ceiling.
We have put a lot of work in it.
But it's not finished.
We have fire.
We have a table.
We have like heat.
I mean not fire.
We have a heat.
We have a table to eat on.
And kind of a couch.
We haven't finished the couch.
But we're getting there.
We will finish it.
We're doing it ourselves.
So it might take a while.
And it's okay.
We can sit.
And we have a lot to sit outside.
We can sit everywhere we want outside.
So we don't really need a place to sit inside anymore.
Because spring is coming.
And nice sunshine as you saw.
So we can sit outside.
Yucky.
What do you think?
I mean you have seen it probably in our videos.
But now you can see like straight comparison.
That has already plastic windows inside.
Cop the work done for us.
Turns out that that window that we said.
They have done the work for us.
This one was not sealed correct.
Like they didn't cement it on the outside of the phone.
So pretty much was blowing air here in the front everywhere.
So we had to redo this one.
And it would be better if we could redo it.
So they didn't do anything for us.
Let's see.
Oh, that's nice.
Oh, it's big.
There's a big window.
That David said.
Wow, look at the big window.
And it got bigger.
It's a lot of work needed.
Oh my.
Did they really try to fix the house with foam?
Let's go.
With the fat removal.
Babe, wait.
Holy ----.
Bye bye ceiling.
Babe.
This mask, it works.
Back to work.
And back on the ceiling.
Firing.
You stepped with the back feet on the phone, right?
King size bed.
King size headrest.
King size everything.
Everything amazing.
But like the lowest budget you could imagine.
Time to start assembling the bed.
It broke.
That's how it looks.
I really, really like it.
So this is our workstation.
Where we spend all our time editing the videos.
We have really never showed it.
It is on an office table.
Which we did make ourselves as well.
From an old door.
We had a video for that.
But we never posted it for some reason.
No, because we have never finished it.
Yeah, we never finished locking it.
But in theory it doesn't need a super smooth.
It has smoothed itself out.
As we are using it non-stop.
This is our main computer.
I play a lot of games.
So I keep it for gaming as well.
And a lot of editing.
Good morning.
What the hell?
Door.
So that's one of the bedrooms.
That's a bedroom.
One of the bedrooms.
We use the guest bedroom as our first working place.
Three.
Welcome to my crib.
Check out the new floor.
So much bigger.
Should we have some fun?
What have you done?
They are building the windows.
I finished them.
Look how amazing it looks.
We are running out of time.
David is doing the ceiling.
Everything.
A little bit off.
Nice.
The bed is halfway assembled.
Poop outside. Poop outside.
I mean, it's not that spectacular.
When we arrived, the doors were open.
This is not a nice room.
This is our...
Okay.
This is pretty much our storage room for now.
We have all our glass drawers down here.
Everything.
Because we moved it from the cauldron.
So it's pretty much a mess.
It is still a livable room.
We will have to clean it up anyways for my mom to arrive in summer.
Hopefully, this whole thing is over.
So we have to clean it anyways.
It's not hard to clean.
It's not going to become a room where you just pile up things.
And it just becomes a giant messy room.
It's going to get cleaned up.
But we have a nice living room.
So that's what we're going for.
Nice outside.
And just leave this room alone.
It's okay.
It's going to get good when the time comes.
Here's our...
We don't have electricity yet.
But here's our bathroom.
It's very dark.
Can I have your phone?
Can you see it?
No, I can see it.
The tiles look nice though.
Oh, there's nice tiles.
What are we doing in the middle of the night?
Careful, careful, careful.
See if it works.
I mean, it's going to work.
But see if it pumps water.
Okay, I'm not seeing any water anywhere.
We need to go back all the way out.
Because it's not cut on the correct size.
Done.
Papa, where are you going?
Blastering.
It's laid down.
And this is the plumbing that we're getting.
What are you doing on those three layers?
It's the first clean floor of the house.
We never cleaned it.
It's from the shop.
Not the green I wanted.
And that's the color it became.
Here's our bathroom.
We did that pretty early.
It was the first thing you need.
You need to shower, you need to go to the toilet and all that.
So that was pretty much the earliest thing we did.
We did it quite good, quite nicely.
We didn't film so much because we were rushing through it.
There's some few videos, but a lot of things are missing out.
Okay, here's a floor falling down.
Here, this door is a basement.
But it's all digged in with dirt.
Oh, look at that cool opening.
Oh my God, that's disgusting.
That's creeping me out.
Good morning.
Someone filled it up with dirt because it had a water problem.
So it was keeping some water in down there.
And not just dirt.
Where do you put your trash when you're living in the middle of nowhere?
In your basement.
You throw it in there.
All nice.
So next owners have to clean it all up.
Let me show you how it looks down there.
So we have just your typical basement with some typical trash.
We have some bar wire.
Four buckets of glass.
Six, seven buckets of metal.
And a lot of buckets of plastic and trash.
There's a bra.
Nice and wet.
Okay, here's going to go all the potatoes and all the goodies.
Here we have John's.
Look at the floor up there.
That needs to be.
She's super excited because...
Yes, okay, we're not famous.
And behind here is the storage room.
Which is an incredible mess.
Because we've just been dumping things in there.
And all the tools are in there.
So it needs a lot of cleaning up.
And it's also missing insulation.
So it's really cold in there.
That will be something that will be done.
But we kind of don't want to clean it all up and make it nice.
As we want to do the basement.
And we want to change the floors in there as well.
So no point of doing all that work.
If we're going to be then taking it all out and redoing it.
So we might just do it all in one go.
If we can't.
But yeah, that's this side of the house.
And welcome to the cement tutorial.
That's not the biggest hole we have.
Come on, you can do it.
Are you going to bring that now?
I have to keep working.
I don't stop working.
Ever.
This wood needs done.
Here, it's ugly.
I feel like I'm eating that.
What's wrong with your ribs?
What did you do there?
Someone slapped you with black hands.
Jungle.
Did I do it?
No, don't put it in your face.
Is it good?
What are you doing?
They call me the red lion.
The black lion, but sure.
So we're ready to go to the lake.
And David insists...
We have to go to the shop first.
Yeah, that's what I...
Come here.
Where are you going?
And David insists that he can go like that.
I want to wash it in the lake.
I'm not wasting water in here.
Okay, sure.
So, shall we go?
Yeah, let's go.
Can we please talk about David's hairstyle?
It's beautiful.
And you like it.
As long as it's practical, it's good, right?
Yeah.
Can we please talk about your hairstyle?
Why?
Can you turn profile?
Nice.
Oh, I can't see.
My face is probably orange, no?
Nope.
Can you do a turn for me?
Fully.
What have you done today?
6.26.
Why are we even...
I said 6 o'clock.
Why? What's wrong?
Other side.
I thought you're ready.
I have...
I have cleaned up the wood.
I've seen a part of it.
There's a ******* shovel in this.
It's very sticky.
Clean up the wood.
Okay, not that much.
I have...
Go.
I have cleaned up the wood.
I don't know how to do it like...
Okay, I have cleaned up the wood.
I have cleaned up the wood.
It is two centimeters from the bottom, so I know it's straight.
Because these woods are not that very parallel.
And I have no idea how to use this thing.
So, we're gonna put three screws into it to hold it on.
And then we're gonna put two big, big screws on it.
Okay?
So, one screw goes in here.
I don't see.
I live up here now.
What?
I live up here.
Or like a fluffy armor from the medieval times.
That is one year over.
It was quite a lot.
I think we did a lot.
I hope we did a lot.
I mean, everybody said we did a lot.
A little bit, yeah.
Yes, we relaxed as well.
But I think we did a lot.
House renovation and farming.
It was a lot.
But we have a lot more exciting things happening.
A lot, a lot, a lot.
Yeah.
So, we thank everyone that followed us from day one.
Or just joined in now.
Or whatever.
We love you.
We thank you so, so much for your support.
It means a lot to us.
And virtual hugs, everyone.
Because we cannot hug you.
We're literally just talking to the camera.
But we think we are hugging you.
And we thank you so, so, so, so, so much.
For all your support you've been giving us.
Let's keep going.
It's cold.
We didn't put the jacket on like the previous time.
We were freezing.
We didn't put the jacket on again.
So, hope you enjoyed.
And we're going to see you tomorrow.
Next time.
Probably tomorrow.
We love you.
Yeah, that's pretty much it.
Hope you enjoyed.
We're going to see you next time.
Bye-bye.
