Becoming Gardener - no dig vegetable garden with a tiny house

After completing their studies in 2013, Robert Špiler and Tjaša Štruc, decided to build a little house on a forest clearing. In addition they established a food garden and at the age of 22 began to live their simple life, hand in hand with the Mother Nature.
They combine Tjaša’s academic knowledge (MA in Biology and Ecology) and Robert’s practical work in the gardens throughout Slovenia.

I watched the whole video with a smile on my face. It's funny how this showed up for me in the KZbin recommend videos. I'm a civil engineer as well, 26 years old as well and love to do gardening like you do. But, I'm still afraid of let all behind and follow that passion to a life dedicated to gardening, farming and living close to nature. Congratulations and best wishes!

[@blackhagalaz]

I just quit my studies after 5 years and feel so relieved right now. I was also thinking gardener could be a good job for me. For now I have the opportunity to stay at the job I did beside my studies, and get a higher position even without a finished education! I will just see if this works out. I have my balcony garden as a counterpart and spend a lot of time in int. It just makes me feel so happy and alive. I'll see if there is a future for me at my current workplace, and I am satisfied with the work I will stay there. If not my plan is to start an education to become a gardener

[@fireworm91]

I wish the best for all of you guys but watch out... gardening it's not a secure way out... it feels good and it's relaxing but it's unstable and sesonal work... this amount it's enough for cutting living expenses and share some vegetables with people but out of those 3 months of production (to make things simpler) you should make money to live for an entire year and covering expenses... i will not speak more... i just don't want you guys going bankrupt because of some feeling

I traveled to 58 countries world-wide due my job. I was born in german family that left Germany before the war and came to Brazil. And stood in the farm up to my 14 years. Than I went to the big city, made my studies, start travelling, etc. And what made this virus last year is to open the eys and see: I want to go back to the farm. So, last year I bought in South of Brazil a farm. Abandoned one. Start to clean, plantation of fruits and also some native trees, etc. Now, I can see with my eyes the first results and how I am happy. Than I ask me: why have I not done it before? Your garden is still a dream for me! But is in my project to do the same. In reality I started it, but now slowly, due this moment to much rainning and in a few months, will come winter. And winter here in this region is a little hard!

​@@hanbanaroda i'm also in engineering major in architecture. i currently thinking to start gardening as a hobby, since my grandparents were also a farmer, i enjoyed the time when they fed me with their home grown corn and sweet potato. imo, engineering major had the most stressful work field. when all the deadline and pressure to make the structure works or the construction will be safe or sometimes the overtime, etc, is too heavy to bear. a year just went by when a project ends.

I love gardening and I'm 26. For me, it started little by little. First with green onions; when I went to buy green onions and tomatoes, I kept the root part of the green onions and wow did it regrow so well and for the tomatoes, I planted the seed and wow did I get lovely and tasty tomatoes. I even got to share two tomatoes with my neighbor and he appreciated the gesture with his warming smile.
