First time seeing your video, and wow the way you handle that coconut is so smooth. I never do it like that, always end upp with pieces of coconuts in a mess👏👏👏

I am fascinated when your house was built and slowly you asked to put the solar panel to an engineer. I have watched also your feast ceremony or your wedding which is different in the church.In your remote village or provincial and island life is very beautiful to live in a well built house like yours.

@OurIslandLife 3 месяца назад

@freedomforestlife 3 месяца назад

Your buildings are coming on so beautifully - where did An learn all of his amazing building skills? Thanks for another great vid 🙏✌🌿

@OurIslandLife 3 месяца назад

Yes we are pretty much finished now 😁 just a bit more painting and An wants to do a boat shed next 🫣 He learned by watching others and working on a few projects when he was younger.

Thanks for all your videos.👍🏻😊💪🏻 Me and my girlfriend saw one episode and got hooked :) But please man, use ear protection when using the power tools. Trust me, you will regret it in 20 years if you don't. I can see you are really skilled at building, which means that you have been using a lot of power tools... So again, ear protection! Looking forward to more episodes ! Summer Greetings from Stockholm

I just found your channel, love your open concept of living space. What is the population of this island?

@OurIslandLife 4 месяца назад

Thank you! Hard to say as there aren’t really people living on our island permanently. Most local people have some huts here and they come a few months a year to harvest coconuts and bananas. There are some surfcamps around too so the owners of those also live on the island.
