I’m so excited that you have finally moved in! I’m sure Anna will have in lovely and comfortable in no time! Congratulations on so much finally coming together for you!🧡🤍🧡
I wish I could hit the "Like" button several times. The scenery from your little trips is simply gorgeous. Thank you for not only sharing your Italian villa adventure with us, but also your travel adventures with us.
It's very exciting to see how things coming together after having so many delays. It's going to be nice and great place to live on property in the Stables apartment while you go hard on the Villa soon. I'm looking forward to it. You guys are making a home.
Yes can't wait! As soon as autumn hit we are going to get going inside the villa, most likely going to start tracing the walls for electricity and so on. But before that we still have some minor things to finish in the stables.
Nice to see what has kept you two busy! Both buildings will be beautiful spaces. Love your attention to detail and the plans to replicate the plasterwork on the Villa. Travel footage is gorgeous! Can’t wait to see more! Thanks for sharing your adventures!
Glad to see you back. Happy for you both that you're finally going to be able to move on site. The travel part was just beautiful. Italy has to be my next destination.
Thank you John! Garda is fantastic, truly is one of the great lakes. Water is amazing as well. Well worth a trip but you really have to choose when to go as it's very touristy!
Thank you for the beautiful footage!! I think you must be so patient, having to rely on others for the fittings, and doing work you cantdo yourself. Is it just a little slow in Italy? Anyway I am glad you are both back, I so enjoy your vlogs!!
Thank you! Things get paused as we cant do certain things if other things aren't done before so in the mean time we are doing what we can do ourself. But yes, it's frustrating moving along at such a slow pace, on the other hand we are not really in a rush.
Are these day trips that you have taken? Did you bring the pups with you and were the places you stayed accommodate the dogs? Nice footage and change of music.
Yes just day trips with the dogs but we also do getaways with and without dogs, it's not too hard to find places in Italy where the allow dogs, at least not smaller dogs.
Beautiful scenery! How do you plan to finish the wall to ceiling interface? I see you have left a gap, like you did at the floor. Is that the finished product?
Yes that's finished, we are putting a led strip arouond the ceiling up there and the floor bit will hardly be visible once the floor matts are in, it's for ventilation of the walls behind.
good to see you back, i miss tony. he reminds me of poppy from 'life by living'. they have their own agenda. i think they were homo sapien in their previous life and they are just continuing their journey in this form. lol
Unfortunately not and I actually tried that when we were away, I got upload speads of basically 10kb/s, so it would have taken me days to upload at that pace 😂
They are ventilated walls, so there is a ventilation membrane behind the plaster and openings top to bottom to keep them free from being damp and thus staining the walls.
@@NOLAfugee Not really, we mostly build our houses in wood with well drained foundations etc. This stable is just placed straight onto the dirt which is causing some problems with the walls being damp. We are making a drainage around though which will probably help.
Just to keep the rooms a bit cleaner, having raw untreated concrete indoors is not great, so it's just a solution until we are putting the floor mats in when we are converting it to a gym.
@@VillaAroldi Ahh... I thought you were doing this in the whole house and with Modena, the tile center of Italy, just up the road from Parma... I was a bit dismayed. Btw when your husband is explaining this and that, he really needs to point out what use each room will have, so we can also visualize it. Right now You know, but they are just white walls to us.
Nooo, we are doing tiles in most of the rooms. I think it's been told numerous times in the past videos, but the white rooms will be converted into a gym and spa once we can move into the villa, for now it will be our accommodation for the foreseeable future though. @@lagringa7518
@@VillaAroldi Ayy.... sorry, I've been kind of looking at your videos out of sequence 😳, as I got the beginning and now the latest as they don't seem to be coming up on my notifications.
