It's hard to be patient, when you know that the house that they're building will be ever so beautiful and one of a kind. But I will gladly sit through hours of trench digging and measuring if it means I get to called "man" all the the time. I like it. Feels like high school all over again. 🙂

[@marilouw207]

So excited to see you start on the house! Eugenia you are truly an iron woman! Respect to you girl. Pepe and your precision is truly remarkable. Good luck guys. I will be following every single episode! Already looking forward to the next one.

[@b.hodgkiss3893]

I’m so excited to see you guys building again. Every two weeks of entertainment for us. So appreciate these videos.

[@joelicorn]

I'm from Portugal and I just stopped the video to say that this is gonna be good

[@miriamlorenz7687]

Good to see Aspen and Lolita were supervising. You can never have too much quality control! :) Looking good.

[@lottie2525]

Wow, you're so precise and tidy. Love watching the way you work. So exciting to see the first stages. Good luck.

[@ModernHouseCabin]

thank you for your kind comment, looking forward sharing more soon

[@erinnjackson638]

I’m here watching you guys on this journey of building your house because I too want to build mine in another 10 yrs tho. Your previous videos of cultivating the land and your tiny home builds and lifestyle journeys have been insightful, inspiring and innovative. I will admit tho seeing you both building your dream home after watching majority of your videos is making me emotionally happy for you both. I cried a lil because it has been a long time coming and a labour of love. This romantic house will last til the end of time. Congratulations in advance on your new home. Keep the educational, fun, and enlightening videos. It is greatly appreciated.

[@CharlotteGreenTruthSeeker]

I only just found you yesterday and have binge watched 14 episodes already 😂 you guys are fantastic and sooooo inspiring. 💜🙏💜

[@ModernHouseCabin]

Welcome aboard!

[@hansmuller9121]

Congratulations the groundbreaking / excavator shovel is done. This is the important step towards your own house. Greetings from Berlin

[@twinlessflame]

Intro is captivating af man

[@catherinecooper2360]

You guys are AMAZING!! I like the longer videos as it is easier to tag along than to watch a short one and then lose your place and have to mentally recalculate. I love how loving you are to your pets!

[@juliad1768]

It’s great your both doing it together, your building your dream home United which is lovely, enjoy the process xxx💞

[@ModernHouseCabin]

🤍

[@metislamestiza3708]

you will look back at these initial exciting moments with pride when you complete your home. but then again, you should be proud of everything you've worked for and achieved. you have tenacious natures to do this project. i'm glad we can watch this as it evolves.

[@ModernHouseCabin]

thank you

[@radzi1969]

I’m excited to be part of this project, not physically though….. but just by watching this video. Thanks for sharing another great adventure! ❤

[@rudymazar5266]

a good long episode a month is fine .. you are doing a great job ! pleasure to look.

[@jorgearaya6736]

Muy inspirador, no estar vendiendo tu tiempo por dinero, sino haciendo lo que te gusta con amor, aunque sea algo tan duro como la construcción, y cuando uno trabaja con las manos, con la cabeza y con el corazón, el resultado son esas obras que se destacan del resto, porque se puede apreciar el Arte.

[@ModernHouseCabin]

gracias Jorge, agradezco tus palabras. un abrazo fuerte y hasta el próximo video!

[@luccalazzarini]

Feliz de haber encontrado su canal unos cuantos meses atrás! Siempre esperando con ansias un nuevo episodio de MHC. Gran trabajo!

[@madelynes9369]

2 shorter episodes is fine for me. I look forward for your post. I haven’t seen it in a while.

[@MikeMills-vd6qu]

my sister sent me a link to your channel. Good thing to see.... My GF and I are having a good laugh - I said "look they have been living in a van and are now building a house..." sound familiar? hahahaha - looooong story! we will watch your videos. so glad to bump into your channel Thanks

[@ModernHouseCabin]

Welcome aboard!

[@cphysomavuso6386]

Good news that you have stared on your main house, an architect in Swaziland, I am learning a lot and I have watched all your videos.... GOOD LUCK

[@tjortaraja]

Bravo. Who would have thought that ditch digging and depth measuring could be so captivating? 😮 I am always astounded by both of your knowledge and work ethic. Have no idea how you figured out those measurements or even how to use those levels and I so want to be confident in that myself. Loved the music, laughed at you dancing with your headphones at one point. Imagined the music was more like what you used to use in your first videos. And I laughed when you you said it’s time for the ‘volunteer’. I am here for however long this build takes.

[@doloresmartinez3960]

I never tire of seeing you two. Its exciting and very instructive. You should be very proud of having this wonderful opportunity,. I bet you get up with a purpose every day.

[@ModernHouseCabin]

100%!

[@Sunnbuzz]

I find his precision beautiful

[@robertnachtsheim3594]

One brick at a time...ty for sharing!

[@ModernHouseCabin]

You got that right!

[@KnutBluetooth]

No hurry, just planning and precision!

[@gudeliamorilla1354]

Wonderful episode, questions; will you be building a two bedroom home? Will you have a built-in in wood burning fireplace? Are you going to install a septic tank? Cannot wait to see more episodes. One last question: Will your current home become a quest house, or will you lease it out for extra income?

[@mrs.tomcollins2424]

Damn Pepe, way to go!!!!! Pushing past the mind is difficult. The accuracy of each project you complete is visible. I’m so proud of you both 💪👍👏🤍

[@henleycheung3615]

[@heinrichbuchler8491]

Ooooh… you did so good ‼️ Such brilliant teamwork … which is needed to make a dream come true. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽💕

[@bengtriise6504]

Wow,something tells me this will be awesomme! Good luck to both of you🌞🇧🇻

[@Lilasun]

Hi guys, great admiration for you two :) I'm wondering if it will be a problem when heavy rains come that the water will run down those slopes right onto the foundations of the house?... Maybe not, it's just something I thought of when I saw the land. Best of luck with the build! :)

[@groundspeed3954]

Well done. Everything depends on the foundation. Pains-taking practices at this stage pay dividends on the rest of the build.

[@alinamatselisobonde5354]

Good Boy , well done👏👏👏👌From Danmark🖐🏻🖐🏻

[@petrlaco7331]

As a geodesy student i am having funn at this episode :)) But from me, well done.

[@natxotxuri]

Kaixo Eugenia y Pepe. Os felicito y os animo a seguir adelante con ese maravilloso proyecto de construir vuestra propia casa. Y muchas gracias por enseñarnos todo lo que hacéis. Un saludo

[@roelienrudijansevanrensbur4172]

[@scandilines5157]

Love it! 🚜 I have also tried a small digger once during landscape architecture school. So fun!

[@jack-wo4xp]

best luck with the house, it will be wonderful

[@davidfellowes1628]

I think there is something quite empowering for Euginia, to be in control of the once boy's toy. Fascinating.

[@julyaparfenova1062]

Наслаждаюсь процессом и с удовольствием наблюдаю 😊 Удачи

[@yolandadelossantos9827]

Increíble!!, cada vez más admirada del trabajo que estáis haciendo felicidades!!

[@keluargaganfais1027]

Saya malah senang melihat video pendek per episot😁👍👍🙋‍♂️

[@jorojiga]

Felicidades. Buen video. Estoy seguro que podrías lanzar, a la par, el mismo video con voice over en español explicando la parte técnica de todo lo que vas haciendo y tendrías mucha más gente viendo tu contenido. Nuevamente felicidades y éxito

[@kikisarri2995]

You are the best !!!

[@librarylady6mena368]

[@duartemonteiro7463]

Olá Pepe é Eugénia! Eugénia, não me esqueci de ver o teu vídeo. 😀

[@ModernHouseCabin]

🤍

[@veroavileslugo6031]

Alucinante! Felicidades!

[@Womboo369]

Great music

[@esejavito]

un video maravilloso!

[@nielsantsorensen881]

Belo projeto. Parabéns.

[@ModernHouseCabin]

🤍🙌

[@crosisofborg5524]

After watching this I am positive I am going to use screw piles. Faster and easier.

[@ModernHouseCabin]

screw piles are great, they would not work for our design tho

[@syarifafatimaha]

Could you please share the house plans and layout? like how big the house will be, how it will look from the main street, etc

[@CarlosAguilar-f5p]

Very nice video! Do you have a floor plan you can show us viewers?

[@Simon-dm8zv]

Very interesting video, thank you so much for sharing all the details and steps. How hard is it to get permission to build something like this and are the building codes very strict about how the house should be built?

[@sahaja1089]

Interesting. Mb you can also try Kundalini aweking and free sahajayoga meditation? It will help

[@JoelGrant-ie4ly]

I have a non technical question. I noticed that Eugenia prepares wonderful looking dishes. My question is this...what type of food do your pets eat? Is is store bought, or do you prepare have a special diet for them?

[@TheIndigoEscape]

Look at you guys with a digger!! How cool was this video man! Did you find it easy to get used it pepe? Well done guys!! As always, superb video! x

[@ModernHouseCabin]

it was a bit complicated the first few hours, after that is like having a super strong third arm attached to your body 🤣

[@fcosantos]

I live in Aveiro and I would like to see You guys and share knowlodge about construction and law because I build my house in Brazil but here I don't understand the proccess to do this.

[@fdelaat]

wow...

[@zat6442]

2 shorter

[@lucijalovrinovic9325]

2 shorter, because it is too long to wait whole month for new episode.

[@BT-lm4fd]

4 longer episodes a month please......😁

[@lottie2525]

Shorter, but really just do whichever is easiest and makes sense for you. Will enjoy whatever you produce, I'm sure. Thanks

[@marialindberg9564]

I don't mind 1 longer episode per month as long as they keep coming... I love your work!! It's a real retreat from a distens. Can't wait to se more of your excellent work and be inspired.

[@ojitasdefreya]

Epic teamwork! Hoping you are met with what you most need moment to moment. So much beauty in watching the progress step by step. Along with the inner drive + will to keep going. Bravo. 🤍

[@keluargaganfais1027]

Hallo selamat siang🙋‍♂️👍

[@gunawandinata3556]

❤️❤️❤️

[@amandamorgado7555]

Absolutely loved watching your latest vlog. What’s the name of the digger?👌🏻

[@boitumelosekgothe]

You need to get face protection for when you’re using the digger. At the very least get eye protection. A stone or rock can easily jump out and hit your face and cause permanent damage.

[@BatisteBieler]

Did you show your plans yet? It would help to put things in context.

[@connyruiz84]

Pongan subtítulos en español por favor 🥺

[@DictatorMars]

Great work. Why did you call the excavator/digger a volunteer?

[@NOS2022]

Your blade must be on the back side for this type exavator

[@RCMworldtour]

How did you manage the license with the County Office? My experience is bad though. Great job!
