MY GOODNESS I am SO very glad to see you and know all is well (except what you're dealing with in the lovely house in France). You were missed. Please know your followers have you in their thoughts and care about you. Take care.
Must have been fairly traumatic going back after all those years, but with your usual energy and determination your French house should be revived soon and ready for a new chapter. Bon courage !
As a UK citizen setting up a new business in Austria, renovating a not-yet-finished-house in Tuscany and now another project in the Dordogne. Please balance it out well. Finish the basics in your your job first in order to have a clear mind to handle both projects! See you soon!
She left your clothes and books so neatly. She must have cared for you very much and hoped you would return. It’s all very sad but glad you have found happiness now.
Glad you showed up! The house is very beautiful and I imagine that you took a great step back in time when you remember the time you lived in the house. So many memories and objects left behind, it gives a certain nostalgia! Good luck on this new mission ☺️
Raff glad you are well! Funny to see your old cloths I bet. Gave me a chuckle. Okay how about some detail regarding an eight year lapse. You buy her out or you bought her out of the home. Devil is in the details as they say. Best Thomas
Welcome back! Good to see you are ok. Renting this house out will be a good income for you to continue your project in Italy. Facing the past isn’t always easy but you will be very busy while you’re at the house, and another aspect is you will see her past beauty come back to life 😊
What a lovely house. I imagine you really are full of emotion seeing it again. I love the arched beams. No doubt you will bring back the Grand Old Lady better than ever. Thanks for bringing us along.
Thank you for sharing your trip and return to your old house, I am sure it's brought back many memories both good and bad. Your are there now, and you'll bring this lovely house back to life and put the past to rest. I look forward to seeing you bringing it back to its glory.
An interesting past as well as the present! I love following all footage,it makes my life a doddle. You’re teaching me how not to get into flaps over nothing. Thanks for all your hard work.😃😄🧐
It was touching that you included all of us in this trip as well as seeing your house in France for the first time in 8-9 years! I can imagine how many mixed emotions you are feeling. Having revisited old 'homes' after years of absence, I remember it as if sort of in dream; like I am remembering myself as another character at quite a different time of my life. It is important to let your soul absorb all the changes and appreciate the good experiences you had from that life and now the progress you've made in your present life with your family.
Have missed you! And so glad to see you well…was worried about you. Will look forward to following wherever this adventure takes you……it’s a beautiful property that needs some TLC……
Don't be sorry that it took you a while to upload something. Completely understand, you have a busy life! With that being said, I'm so happy you're back! Thank you for the update and thank you for bringing us with you on this trip. Even though the trip seems to be a bit bittersweet, I still appreciate that you're sharing a small part of the story with us. Lovely house you've got there in France as well. Must say that I'm quite surprised how nice it looked inside - expected something completely different, when I saw the exterior, haha. I always get so so happy when I see that you have uploaded a video, and I will look forward to the future ones as well. Thanks again, you're the best!
Ohh yayyy! I knew I was missing one of my favorite channels. I've been thinking about you not too long ago as I haven't seen you since your last update right before Easter. What a beautiful house and village! Always happy to see you and your DIY projects. So much to learn and appreciate what you do. And thank you for letting us see yet another of your beautiful home in France this time. Can't wait to watch what's in the pipeline. Take care:)
Just thought of you another day wandering if you are ok. Here you are. Looking great. You look like you've lost somevweight. It's such a lovely house. Looking forward to seeing more of it.
Charming house. Revisiting past chapters of our lives can be tough. So glad you’re going to save this beautiful gem of a home! You are certainly able to do it! I definitely would need a broom to knock down cobwebs and bug spray !!!! I’m not a princess but I don’t do bugs!! France looks beautiful. You would thoroughly enjoy New York State: Adirondack Mts,Lake George, Finger lakes, beautiful hills, waterfalls and glens and history. New England is beautiful as well. Although videos you’ve shared with Austria are amazing!!!! It really is good to see your smiling face again! We all admire your strength and bravery. It’s a brave man who can face his past in order to move forward!
Glad to see you are OK. Life always finds a way to show you the real priorities And like the old saying goes ... if you want to make God laugh, tell him your plans. Looking forward to seeing how the new old house comes along.
It's always nice to see your videos. This looks like a new project. Can't wait to hear what your long term plans will be once you get the place sorted out.
Wonderful to see you back. the house in France is quite nice. It seems to be in good shape after sitting empty so long. Looking forward to part 2. You certainly have some serious outdoor work to accomplish. Good Luck
I can't tell you how nice it is to see you again. As you might have gathered, we were all concerned. Another hidden gem...I LOVE IT. Keep sending the videos. 🍻
It’s great to know all is well-sort of, anyway. If only I could, I would take on this rental challenge in a heartbeat! All the best as you sort things out. Looking forward to updates! Stay well!
Love the pebble floor in the barn. Looking forward to seeing the yard cleared and learn more of your plans and the town. Glad you are making progress on solving the problems with the videos.
Good to see you again, & what a great house. You are truly an international person, with homes in Italy, Germany & France. You are a Very fortunate person. When I grow up I want to be like you! HAhAh Good Luck with all the new projects.
@@annedodd5888 He explains better in the next video: he's had this house in France for 8 yrs, then there was a couple breakup and I guess didn't want to deal with it, I have no idea if there were mutual money issues... but now he wants to fix it up to rent. He will remain in Italy and I suppose goes back and forth between the UK and Italy because he is still working in the UK. A bit complicated ay? 😵💫
Yay, you're back. I was starting to worry that something had happened. That's a lovely little house. At least the animal was nice enough to go to the bathroom in the bathroom, and not elsewhere😂
So good of you to take us along. Loved your description as you travel the motorway. Can feel your sadness going back into your house. Sometimes we have people in our past that we cared for Send good thoughts & leave it there❤️. You have a beautiful house. Will you rent it or sell it? All best
Raff, SO great to see you again! I am sorry that you have had so much trouble but I am glad you are back on line . It was good to hear you during the long drive and maybe we were a bit of company for you. I have been in and out of the Toulouse area as we have friends in the Lot. And yes so many castles and amazing how many are lived in. Imagine taking care of one of those? The place in France looks like it could be a great rental but more work for you. I can understand not parting with it. We are here for you so will look forward to your next video. Xo
I’m so glad to see you again! I kept popping back to your channel to see if you’d put a message up and was quite concerned. When you don’t know what’s happened to someone, you always fear the worst! The house in France is lovely! ❤️xx
We were just in Italy, and visited Pontremoli. What a lovely town. I was prepared to buy you a coffee, but you were not there at the time. Hope all is well.
HELLO RAFFI & FAMILY...OH MY, I WONDERED WHERE ALL YOUR VIDEOS WENT!...GLAD TO KNOW YOU ARE ALL WELL...DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THIS PLACE IN THE NICE AREA OF FRANCE...ALL THE BEST...🙏
Glad to see you’re back online. It’s always good to see you, even when not online for a while. Life goes on , right! Quite an emotional time arriving there at first I bet, but you can do this, you are a strong man. Renting it out or even using it through a holiday letting firm will at least save your investment in this house. It should be a great investment at least. You have a second holiday home in the meantime. So glad we all get to see you this weekend and your adventures in life. Take care and be safe! All the best, M.
So sad when you share the ownership of a property and cannot do anything for years. I have the same problems with some houses I own but I cannot do anything because I am far and other people don't do anything maintenance . I totally understand how tough is for you. I will probably never come back.
Glad to see your back really missed seeing your videos. Cant wait to see what you do to this beautiful house gardens etc. Would love to live in France but doubt i could afford the rent on this property. Looking forwards to seeing more videos.
Welcome back. You have had some much going on. Loosing control of your channel and thankfully getting it back. Going back to your old house after so long. Seeing you're old stuff. Look after yourself
Have missed you so is great to see you. Love that area of France and will be there in June. Looking forward to watching you catching up with this lovely house and area.
