In case no one has mentioned it: the floors are most likely soaped floors. It‘s the traditional flooring treatment common in many places. They WILL last, and last beautifully if you take care of them with floor soap (it‘s easy by the way) Please consider not doing the linseed oil and continue the soap treatment. (We have soaped floors and they are wonderful)

this is a damn good review very fair

Bro can we use only bentonite clay , and it is necessary to use kaolin clay??

I use regular hairspray for my hair and I have to wash them every single day with shampoo and conditioner because of it. What about your homemade clay, do you need to wash your hair with shampoo every day as well ? Thank you and thanks for the time you spent sharing your ideas through your videos !

You need a decent sauna.

Barefoot and zero drop aren’t really competing with each other. Barefoot allows for foot strengthening and achilles lengthening, to where it should be naturally. Zero drop kinda only accommodates the achilles issue. Having zero drop, but 20+mm stack height, isn’t correcting for poor foot health due to the shoe industry lies. TLDR: barefoot is MUCH better than zero drop for your foot mechanics. Just transition properly for “your” feet.

I wondered when this would occur to you……

I have Altra max cushion. Next shoe will be altra medium cushion as a transition then topo minimal cushion. If it all goes well i will try xero neo prio then tyr drop zero then vivo primus lite. I am 40 with bad knees so im gonna go super slow with it

Best decision I have made was going to a barefoot shoe, been wearing the Hykes Escapes and love them, soo comfy and my feet feel so good. Feel like I have been lied to all these years with regular shoes and Never going back to regular shoes.

Phillip, you could try Osmo for the flooring ❤

What about the hold?

Amazon has cat beds that are electric warming ones

Such a BEAUTIFUL house,l love it.

Nice to hear that the Tree felling company are so responsive. Having lived in several forest's in northern Europe you can & will see things re-grow, it may be worth a limited survey of your own forest to check to see it's healthy, trees are a long term cash crop & commercial companies loathed to spend money on unnecessary work, I think you are good for the next 50 years. Cheers.

If I was younger I'd be envious of your purchase, you sound ill researched concerning living in through a Scandinavian winter. Not withstanding and more experience in DIY would serve you well, good luck.

Stress and fear is one of the most common things in Sweden witch lead to depression and burn out.

This is why they sold you the house... Kalhygge is something they know about in advance. Now look out for bugs witch eat the wood that's chopped down so they don't get into your house as well

Are you sure you want to move to Sweden....? It's not easy even if it may look idílic on KZbin

ormanın içinde ev çok güzel fakat benim dayanamayacağım kadar soğuk. yaşadığım yerde kışın ortalama sıcaklık 16 derece.

If one would buy a house/farm in sweden that has a few hectares of forest, without having any knowledge and ambition to manage that, could one give the forest rights to a management company or something that would take over all wood production in exchage for a fee or something? Basically renting the land out? Anybody have any knowledge on this?

If your “luftvärmepump” is not effectively heating the house, try vacuuming the filters on the indoor units! It can make a 20C difference!

Hey Phillip, how could I adjust the ratio if I’d like a smoother texture, should I increase the shea butter by the amount I reduce the kaolin clay?

i concur with bobnh regarding apple trees. i've about 400 apple trees here along shore of lake michigan, usa. your trees are good sized, certainly compared to trees grown in uk or usa for that matter. they appear to be standard rootstock. smaller trees on less than standard rootstock will not perform well in your climate zone 4. also, apple trees will take quite a while to come into their own (10 years plus) on standard rootstock in zone 4. you can learn all about this of course via internet. please seek some professional advise before cutting the trees down. Love your videos and best wishes for a great life in beautiful Sweden.

What's wrong with insulated flues going from your stove up through the chimney?

If forest is mainly monoculture it will most likely be taken down at one point. There are also advantages with getting more sun, you will see more low growth in the summer, less mosquitos and more bees/bumblebees and butterflies.

So, if I got this corectly... You can buy lots of forest land to build your dream house on it and they still can come to your land and chop your dream off??? Please please corect me that I'm wrong.. If that is the case, I'm really sad about it and feel you brother...

I bet you have tons of yars with Raspberry Jam now, or perhaps the bushes will start growing next year, either way, that's the upside of deforesting, Raspberry bushes will start growing like crazy

What you typically do is plant lots of trees, and then cut down some of them to use as firewood and leave the rest of the trees to thrive and eventually become timber. It souds a bit pricey to me, but those things depends a lot on the location, my first house in Blekinge 150 sqm plus three sheds cost me SEK 700k

Thanks, Phillip for a very inspiring video! The ceiling/Roof of the "Shed" looks in good condition and newly rebuild... But the "attic" seems to be somewhat crowded with different derelicts

Did you notice a change in energy levels? I am always so nervous to go bare foot as i have been in a few crashes from motor racing and broken them in a few places in a nasty 120mph off. I say this so you can imagine how busted up they are and i am very self conscious about them. I have been looking into it and it seems there are different types of responders, like say a medication some people get much better results compared to the other individual who seems some to none. I best just crack on as the nice weather here in the UK won't last forever!

Bro..the quantity you suggested can give strong hold ?. becoz i have thin hair

Absolutely banger animation and humorous presentation! Would love to see more of these

Why have you not been posting???where are and how are you all doing???

Fill the rooms up with children lol

I'd like to see the community that your home is near. I'd like to know how far you are from any sort of civilization and I'd love to see the town. I love little towns in Europe and Scandinavia and NOT America LOL

❤😊😊

Would love to see your recipes for soaps and deos etc

!!! Did you got the permission ? "Alla kan publicera zonkartan, men alla måste inhämta tillstånd först, och för kommersiella verksamheter är det även förenat med en liten kostnad (se prislistan nedan). Riksförbundet Svensk Trädgårds zonkarta och detaljkartor är skyddade enligt Lagen om upphovsrätt och tillstånd ska alltid, oavsett tänkt publicering, inhämtas från Riksförbundet Svensk Trädgård." Anyone can publish the zoning map, but everyone must obtain permission first, and for commercial businesses it is also associated with a small cost (see price list below). Riksförbundet Svensk Trädgård's zone map and detailed maps are protected according to the Act on copyright and permission must always, regardless of intended publication, be obtained from Riksförbundet Svensk Trädgård

Made this for my husband. Let see what he says 🎉

I’m confused, does the heat pump not work and is that why the room is so cold in winter?

I can't understand why you are so cold indoors, you have a heat pump..you don't use it and it's just a matter of putting some wood in the stove to get warm. Minimum inhos should be +20C

Tysm for sharing

Climate change fire storms are impossible to stop. These days living too close to Forrest's is risky.

Exactly what I was looking for

There is a big difference Between a natural grown forest and a plantain. I hate plantains

I sincerely recommend you not to apply for a loan guarantee or loan from SEB. It is so troublesome. I am a customer of SEB. My salary is deposited into SEB's account every month. I sent to them my latest pay slip and work contract. SEB even asked for a proof of employment and other documents. After applying for a loan promise from another bank smoothly, I went to SEB to discuss a loan. They asked me to apply for a loan promise from SEB again. What kind of logic is this? I didn't care about the bad service daily, but I didn't expect the loan application to be like this. I plan to transfer my bank account and stop doing business with it. I remind you who have just come to Sweden that if the immigration agency commissioned by the company recommends SEB, don't use it. Many people I know who used SEB when they first came to Sweden stopped using SEB after experiencing the house purchase. I hope everyone will not take detours.

Oh, no... I'm so sorry. Hqppened to my cousins, too, in cabin in the Colorado mountains. When those pines burned down, my cousins were left, like you, living surrounded by stumps (charred stumps in their case). But the forest grew back within ten years... Colorado pines do have cones that germinate only after fires, so regrowth was kind of guaranteed. In your case they were cut, still, surly reseeding will be done...

Thank you for the information, you have helped educate me a bit before I make my choice (:

Hi Philip. You have great topics here about Swedish nature, life, and well-being. I absolutely love the Swedish people and culture. - (Neil from San Francisco)
