Please, don't even feel you have to say sorry for not having uploaded in a long time. We're not that kind of audience. We're here for your authenticity and because we love Mossy Bottom. You don't count as a ''content creator'' to me, just a man sharing his incredible daily and simple adventures. I'm deeply sad to hear of Moss' passing. I also had to put pets down and it hurts in the soul. Time will heal, but he'll never truly leave you! Lovely to see you back.

Take care Daniel and I wish you success with the sale of Mossy Bottom.

I'm really struggling with this. Your channel changed my life. You enabled me to accept my lack of traditional career ambition and embrace without shame the fact that I'm simply not made for that world. I started a garden in the yard of the humble home I'm inheriting, and it's the most rewarding thing I've ever done. I love Mossy Bottom and would buy it in a heartbeat if it were possible for me. I'm heartbroken to lose Moss and to leave Mossy Bottom. I'll follow you to your next home and I wish you the best, but I'll be homesick.

You changed my life. Hi Daniel. I'm sorry to hear that you have lost Moss. I am sure he will be missed by all of us who watch your channel. With this news, I want to try and bring you a little joy by telling you how your videos have made a positive difference in my life. I learned the word 'permaculture' back in 2010 and realised that this was what I had been searching for for years. I grew up in the Isle of Lewis, Scotland, and I bought a house and croft here so that I could hopefully start trying to live self sufficiently. Unfortunately, I have worked at sea my whole adult life which was preventing me from being able to realise this dream due to being away from home for weeks or months at all times of the year. I was too afraid to give up the security of that job, wondering if I would be able to make ends meet without it. And I wasn't happy there, finding the work very stressful and unrewarding. After watching your videos, particularly those where you explain practically how and why you were able to give up the rat race and the ways of going about living the self sufficient life, I finally found the courage to pursue my dream. Your message: "The pursuit of happiness, rather than money, should be your goal." was the moment that did it for me. I have now resigned from my job at sea, picked up work locally a few days a week with a garden designer and have started implementing the permaculture and homesteading lifestyle, growing a variety of crops on my croft. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your inspiration and I look forward to seeing more videos from your adventures still to come. Best regards, Barrie. ps: How about the Highlands of Scotland as a possibility for your next homestead with Inverness being the closest city for your partner to find her own opportunities there? 😊
@MossyBottom
@MossyBottom Год назад
This was really lovely to read, thank you! And yes, I love the highlands (by blood I'm actually half Scottish) it's just a question of affording something within a reasonable commute of a large enough city.

Hey Daniel--just catching up with your vlog. So very sorry to hear of Moss' passing. Most of us have been in your shoes at one time or another and there is absolutely no need to apologize for anything, least of all your being an introvert. You are who you are and we all love you for that. You gave Moss the best life you could and when it's time, it's time. Holding on and extending things 'for one more day' as you said, is selfish and cruel to Moss. You made the best decision you could have done at the time. It's incredibly hard to let go of someone who means so much to us, but that attachment is also a source of suffering. Be happy and relieved that Moss is not in pain and know that somewhere out there, he is still there for you, though perhaps in a different form. Many blessings to you, Daniel, and to your partner. I am so happy for you both!!

A relevant quote I'm sure you're aware of and I feel you'd appreciate right now Daniel. "End? No, the journey doesn't end here. Death is just another path, one that we all must take. The grey rain-curtain of this world rolls back, and all turns to silver glass, and then you see it. White shores, and beyond, a far green country under a swift sunrise." Tolkien was a true wizard of words. Here is to the next chapter. 🍺

RIP, Moss. I gotta say, as someone who lives in Finland, I do not think language would be an issue. We Finns speak fluent English (if you leave aside some senior folks). As a nation, we also love everything British and Irish. The housing prices are also very low at the moment, and there are a lot of nice places for sale in the countryside. As a bonus, our country has very clean soil and water/nature in general. Of course long and cold winters are a challenge to farmers, but it can be managed. I have a small farm myself in the Western Finland Province, but sometimes I think that I would love to move to Ireland, in a place just like Mossy Bottom. Maybe we should make a swap..? :D

Hi Daniel, I’m so sorry to hear about Moss. The video was a lovely tribute to his wonderful life. While I’m also saddened to hear about your decision to move on, I will always carry the spirit of Mossy Bottom with me in my endeavours to live ‘deliberately’ (as Thoreau put it) in my own piece of paradise here at the southern tip of South Africa. Without your inspiration and determination who knows in which direction I would have gone. Many blessings to you and your partner in your future life together! 🙏

Finland is great place but has some BIG challenges 1.Freezing winters. 2) No sun shine for almost six months. Many people become depressed as a result during this period. 3)introverted locals which means making friends is almost impossible. When you are introvert you need others to not be introverts.

My dog Lola died in September, she was only 18 months old. The guilt still overwhelms me now. I’m sad to see the end of your adventures in Ireland, but look forward to watching you doing it all over again; wherever that may be. You mentioned that Ireland feels like your home and I’d like to take this opportunity on behalf of everybody here on this Emerald Isle to officially grant you the title of Honorary Irishman. (Quite the accolade for somebody born in England 😉). The passion you’ve shown for the country and it’s cultures over the years have been a joy to behold as a viewer. Also, the way you retold old Irish folk tales and legends would make even the finest Seanchaí (Irish storyteller) proud. Best of luck for the future and I’m sure Moss and Lola are wherever they are looking down on us fondly. Dog Bless mo chara 🇮🇪🍀

Also my first experience growing some food. such a learning curve. all the best Daniel, follow you heart.

With the ongoing "reset" in all aspects of life, I think moving and moving closer to a larger city is the worst thing one can do but hey, love is blind, especially for the introverts who tend to put everything they've got into a relationship. As the time goes by, people change and some wake up and start to see the reality. I hope it won't be your case. RIP Moss

Oh, Daniel. I'm so very sorry. As a patreon (Amanda Culpan) I've watched you and Moss for so long. In fact, you inspired us to make the move to Ireland from UK. We're coming in July to start land hunting. Also, we had to put one of our dogs to sleep on Tuesday because of cancer. Yes, like you, it was that decision of when was too soon and when was it best so he didn't suffer. My husband watched your video before me and woke me this morning to break the news of Moss' passing before I saw this video. Our hearts are with you at this time. I'm sure Mossy Bottom will be sold before we get to Ireland - who wouldn't want it? I'm going to miss not having the opportunity to pick your brains in person about what I should plant where. My husband and I wish you and Angela the very, very best for your future.

I hope it works out for you. I did what my partner needed as she too was fresh outta Uni & wanting to get into work. I was several years older & had only a year prior to meeting her moved to where I wanted to be so I could have a quieter life near a quiet beach. 2 years into me having settled & setup my home etc I stupidly said we could move when she said the job she wants is near London. It was good for her, not for me, I hated it, I didn't even want to go out after a while because everything was busy & loud all the time. 5 years into the relationship we broke up & she had everything how she wanted it & her now career & I had nothing & had to leave & go somewhere I felt I belonged which was where I grew up. A huge step back from where I'd got to 5 years earlier.

Watching your videos reminds me of the best years of my life living with my young son and my dog and cats on an island in Puget Sound. Many years ago, but I think of those days every single day. I let that life go too easily, feeling I had to pursue a career. I wish I had found a way to stay there and prolong that time even just a few years more. The career was hard work and stressful, and although it had some rewards it just wasn’t worth it. Think hard before you make that change. Although I wish you all the very best whatever you do. We never know what the future holds. I am so sorry you lost your wonderful Moss, he had a great life there with you, it was a joy watching you together.

Rest in peace Moss. You were a good dog. Very sorry to hear of Moss’s passing. Also so disappointed to hear you are walking away from your life’s work at Mossy Bottom. You poured your heart & soul into your little part of the world. I’m a little confused as to why you have to move. Can Angela not work remotely? And why would someone decide to date someone in rural Ireland if they know they cannot stay there? It’s a bit like Yoko Ono breaking up the Beatles. Maybe there is more to it than you can say, and maybe you yourself are not as happy in Sligo as you portray. Anyway it’s shame, but you might find somewhere beautiful with a cottage ready to live in with less midges. Best wishes. Good dog Moss

It would always be there waiting for you to return :-) Blessings to you Daniel and where ever your next adventure may take you

I know it's none of my business to say this but, you shouldn't leave this place, it's been your dream for so long to achieve it, I know you feel upset with the loss of Moss and feel overwhelmed with situations. But I think you should rethink your decision, please do. Because it may feel so upsetting that you may feel the need to accept the offer of moving away immediately, but I think you should take a break, then decide. I watched your channel for ages, seeing your face light up with joy when you were on your farm and gardening here in mossy bottom, it just feels weird to see you move because of how happy you seemed here.

Well done for being brave and moving forward, as that is what life is all about, and wish you and Angela the best of luck for the future.

I wish you well. I don't think this planned move bodes well. To give up what you've put blood, sweat and tears into to create the ideal life for yourself for a partners career (does she even have a job yet?) seems crazy. Unless she's going to be ceo of a top company or something I just can't see it being worth it. Edit: why not just get satellite internet and a wfh job? Pretty common these days.

First time viewer here, very impressive what you have achieved. And sorry for your loss. Sometimes it's not wise to make big life changing decisions at such emotional times of grief. Maybe sit tight for a few months and see how feel then? Donegal has a very respected University with brilliant academics and practicioners. Maybe your partner could tap into them? Or even Belfast? So much is done on zoom and online now. Anyway, best of luck whatever you end up doing. The west of Ireland is very appealing.

Some in city limits. But I'm ready now to move to acreage, hopefully 40, and live as you have. I'm so sorry about Moss, he knew he was loved by you!! I have a mini farm and experience that loss. We will all miss you and Mossy Bottom, the properties you showed available, and the 'kids' your pets. Please do keep us up to date. MOSSY BOTTOM IS ALREADY MISSED💔❤️‍🩹 Good luck and God Bless!

I also sold up and moved to rural Ireland after lockdown and 100% inspired by Daniels channel. I lived for over 30 years in Germany and I doubt if a self sufficient lifestyle is possible there. Land prices are high and there are almost prohibitive laws and regulations that you won’t encounter in Ireland. To integrate and become part of a rural community will be difficult unless you speak good German. Even then you might struggle with the local dialect. I couldn’t be happier after moving to East Galway. I’ve got a lovely cottage with 10 acres of land. I’m 55 and feel now that I’ve got a brilliant project for the rest of my life. The neighbors are extremely friendly and helpful, and the sense of freedom here is overwhelming. I’m never going back to urban life and I think, Daniel that you’re making a mistake. The community here is so strong that we could easily survive a zombie apocalypse. Many thanks for your honesty and valuable insights. Choose wisely.

I am sorry to hear you are moving on to other adventures. I always envisioned you and Moss there for decades to come. Terribly sad to hear about Moss but it has to be the better option than suffering my friend. It is the thinking human's way to go about things for Moss's sake. Its a good thing you have found a life partner there all the same and the love can't thrive if she cant follow her dream too. She would have had a dream when she started her education and she needs to fulfill that too I guess. Who would have thought all that was possible when you first arrived at Mossy Bottom. I'm a bit sad too because I always wanted to come for (paid) visit and stay for a few days or a week. Help with what I could help with etc and have that experience whatever it cost me. I have always envisioned buying a place like Mossy Bottom that was already established for the most part and slowly finishing off the original ideas the owner had for it. Would love to know what these midge things are ? Some sort of flying insect I take it ? It would be wonderful if somebody like myself could buy it but with you retaining a interest in it for future purposes. What sort of degree did your Angela do ? what sort of job is she afternow ? All the same GOOD LUCK Daniel from Queensland Australia.

Thank you for the update, Daniel. Moss was and is still a lovely soul who accompanied you on your journey for the exact time when you were alone, Daniel. A true friendship and love story. Such a gentle soul. I am incredibly sorry for the news and for your loss. We know how it feels. Lovely memories of sweet Moss. Blessings to you and your partner.

The song at the end made me emotional, following your journey for a long time. But you descriped it beautifully, it isn‘t easy letting this place go, but it is also an exciting new chapter. Such sad news about moss, he will be missed. Loosing an animal friend is always hard, you definitely don‘t have to apologize for beeing absent. Everyone griefs in their own time. I wish you and angela the best of luck finding your new home🍀🍀

I am so sorry for your loss Daniel. Please remember that he lived the absolute best life that a dog could ever have. I remember watching him pull you on your bike. WHAT??? He loved it. Running through the property and being way to curious about the ducks and rabbits was so fun to watch. We all loved him. Thank you for sharing his wonderful life with us. I and many others across the world mourn his passing. The Moss bloopers were my favorite. I hope someone buys your home and will appreciate all the hard work that you have put into it.

Hello Daniel , My heart breaks hearing the news about Mossy, grief has its own path which must be followed until we come out on the other side, Never forgetting but moving on as life always does! I lived in Streedagh doing what you are doing now. I had to move and husband has now passed. There is never a day (25years later) that I don't miss Ireland, It is unique, just special and so are the people! Whatever you do I wish you and Angela all the very best doing what makes your heart sing!!

You will regret living close to a large city in the coming years because you will end up becoming a absorbed. Thr cities have become so much worse today than they were just 10 years ago. I would opt for an Island.

Thank you so much for updating us Daniel, and the best for your and Angela's new homestead hunt. It's so difficult losing a companion such as Moss, and to leave a place you love... I know this well... but a new adventure with your beloved is waiting, and you will find another magical plot to create in. I cried a few tears, for Moss, for this beautiful parcel you have so lovingly tended, and also tears of happiness for your future. Looking forward to seeing your new home!

So very sorry for your loss ❤️ Pets become family. I loved watching your life with Moss, so much so that I named a dog character in my last novel after him (which made the top 10 in the Irish fiction chart!), we will always remember him! Safe travels. I hope you and Angela take us on the journey 💚

Honestly my opinion, stay put!! There are weird things happening in the world (understatement) lots of big changes coming. The grass is never greener, at the age of 51 i have learnt that the hard way. Dropping places that now I deeply regret dropping. Sometimes you don't realise what you have until it's gone, I've learnt that too. It has taken you years to sow (literally and metaphorically) into where you are. Angela could work online, work away in the week, start a business she adores, so many options. As an older person I can truly say, jumping ship especially at times of huge flux in the world might not be such a good idea. The world has changed in the last 3 years not in a good way Daniel, plans afoot that are not good, do your own research. The only other place I would consider is Finland, this being they are not part of five eyes etc, and it will be easier to remain autonomous there I expect. Please research things going on in the world and don't make your choice based on how things were for you in the world in the past. My advice good luck whatever you both choose.

Going to be longer than two years. I'm gobsmacked Daniel would even consider going to Canada. If I were them, I'd hunker down. Whatever "career" his partner seeks isn't likely to be there in a few years anyway (unless it's working towards the "sustainable" goals of the WEF - note the sarcasm).

As for Finland, I would say that more challenging than the language would be the climate. There is frost and you don't get to start the season before April-May. And it may be cold long after the frost has melted and you can dig the soil and sow. Like this year we have had night temperatures below 10 C - in the south of Finland. In recent years there has also been long droughts. You can fairly easily lose most of your crop early in the season. I'm just a hobby gardener who grows mostly flowers and shrubs, but I can tell you farming is frustrating in such a short season. Add to that a long winter when you can't do any farming without a greenhouse. Chop off a month or two of your Irish growing season and you will get the idea of frustration. Oh, I almost forgot: damage done by animals. I think the worst ordeal is deer these days. They eat everything. Literally. Most flowers before they get to even bloom, but also potatoes from the ground and currant bushes and and and...

I'd be lying if I said your news didn't make me shed some tears but I wish you and Angela so much love and luck on your adventures and truly hope to see you again on RU-vid. Best wishes and blessings to you and the beautiful land that you've shared with us. Peace.

Dear Daniel, l have been following you from the beginning , and l could be your grandmother. I just want to say l have missed your videos so much ! When l did not see Moss around you, . my heart sunk . How l wish we did not have to hear your pain in losing him . 43 years since l lost my last l still miss her so much because she was so special unlike any l have had. So l do understand l think how you feel, and how in words you can not tell us or explain. But l could breathe better after you told us you would still do videos for us. I wish, and l hope you both find your dream and what you both needed to be happy . .... but most of all, l hope you take us on the journey because you are a gifted storyteller. A big hug for both of you from Australia❤❤

I loved how Moss hung on your every word, he was the extrovert in your videos. I am sad Eire may not be your home anymore. Your acre there would be a wonderful place for children to grow up. You have such an affinity to Ireland, you may physically leave but your heart and soul never will.
