EP 44 | Return To Normality, Cutting Grass, Thunderstorm - Alone In The Italian Alps

After the exhausting recovery of my SUV and the persistent rains, I finally return to normalcy, alone in the Italian Alps. The property needs attention, as it only takes a few days for nature to reclaim its space, reminding us of how small we humans are. However, the sunshine is short-lived, as new torrential rains plague the area once again.
Thanks for watching.
Alex

Beautiful camera work filming the closeups of the butterfly.

[@mywildlifeitalia]

Thanks, it wasn't easy, the macro lens isn't professional and the position I was in isn't either....but I'm happy with the result, the target was to bring the viewer as close to nature as possible

[@karipreston1204]

Glad that normality has returned! The raw beauty of a storm is truly a sight to behold!

[@mywildlifeitalia]

I absolutely agree, with the echo of the mountains it was a moment of nature's grandeur. Too bad the microphone I use didn't do justice to the sounds

[@eponder8876]

I love that you use your land resources to complete a task. I really like your bathtub flower pot!

[@mywildlifeitalia]

Hi, I always try to use what I have around before buying material, I find that everything integrates perfectly then, with simplicity. We would like a few more flowers perhaps, what do you think?

[@eponder8876]

@@mywildlifeitalia Definitely more flowers but not necessarily in your pot. Consider herbs and couple of vegetables .

[@mywildlifeitalia]

💪👋

[@j.e.h.7578]

@@eponder8876 or some raised beds for the vegetables... Anyways... I'd do this next year and meanwhile focus on getting the renovation at least of the smaller part done. Just start with the pointing of the walls, bit by bit... It's something easy (in the sense of physical demanding) the wife could help with... Or she could help with the fire wood stock... Whatever it is: 4 hands can easyly achieve more in the same time than only 2

Hi I just discovered your channel. Fantastic shots of you connecting with the gorgeous butterfly! I also watch another guy Martijin Doolaard who has restored a lovely stone cottage in the alps like you. So I now have 2 great channels to enjoy. Thankyou.

[@mywildlifeitalia]

I'm very pleased, thank you for watching my video and I look forward to seeing you in the future with some advice to give me perhaps. I like to involve the public in what I do!

I am glad to see you back to your house! I hope you got your arm rested while you were away. I see your furry friend is still with you. I wish you safe happenings while you are back. Blessings.

[@mywildlifeitalia]

Thanks, yes the dormouse is always around, but it always rains so you don't hear much. The arm is quite good, I always have to stop between one job and another, but... that's okay!

[@helenmayor5111]

Hi Alex - nice to see you getting well. Love your simplicity in creating your offgrid place in the mountain. Looks very cosy inside as well as outside, well done & keep up the good work. Relaxing & enjoying life is a factor as well, don't overdo things. Take care & God bless.

[@mywildlifeitalia]

Hi Helen, thank you, you are always very kind. Simplicity is the basis of the cabin project here in the mountains, whenever I can I use materials present here, nature will do the rest!

[@oliverpapp8271]

Sei cosi in alto sul livello del mare che hai bisongo di riscaldamento anche a fine giugno.

[@mywildlifeitalia]

Ciao, no, non così in alzo, ma in una struttura di pietra l'umidità ci va a nozze. Anche solo per lavare una maglietta etc ho bisogno del fuoco per non dormire all'umido. Tre o quattro ceppi sono più che sufficienti

It's so good to see you back at the cabin, Alex. Mother Nature has certainly exploded with a lot of gorgeousness! The little door mouse is so cute, even though they can be a problem. Hopefully the rain will subside a little for you, and all the ones affected. Thanks for sharing this video!❤

[@jaapklok5560]

Hi Alex, how beautiful is your cabin and its surroundings 😍. Everytime I see it it is amazing! Beautiful taken video from the gathering stormclouds and thunder storm, but I can imagine it is a little scary to be in the mountains with that kind of weather. Stay safe and healthy!

[@mywildlifeitalia]

No, no fear, fascinated I must say... as always, I almost skipped dinner to catch up on everything, I waste hours on it, I love it! Too bad the microphone couldn't make the thunder echo

[@jaapklok5560]

@@mywildlifeitalia I can imagine how beautiful and impressive it is as long as it can be watched from a safe place, I watched your mobile with much pleasure and can imagine how the thunder sounds between the mountains 👌🏻

Hi from South Africa, love your place, nice and cosy

[@mywildlifeitalia]

Hi from Italy, thanks for watching...I'm glad you like the property 🙏

[@j.e.h.7578]

Don't know your plans... But how about starting a compost with your grass, some of your ash, etc.? So in the future you'll have your own rich soil and don't have to buy it and especially take it up the mountain... Just an idea...

[@mywildlifeitalia]

Hi, yours is a great idea, but I'm not good at composition. I'll have to find out first. A thousand thanks !!

[@tamirose8562]

Hello again 🍻

[@alanvanreed6878]

hey Alex, The cabin that you have is unique from others that I have seen ..... I am most familiar with the stone work on Martijn Doolaard's cabins which for the most part are built of small stones and one color. I have noticed that your cabin has a wide range of sizes and color and looks solidly build .... and your location looks quite remote with drone footage that shows no other ruins or cabins nearby. Are you also near Turin ? Can you tell your viewers about the history of the area ? Should you have access to Spotify or Apple play ....check out this song from the film sound track "Into The Wild" The song is by Eddie Vetter ... the song title is "Society" I think it matches with your thoughts on living apart from the City. Regards, Alan Boston

[@mywildlifeitalia]

Hi Alan, I'll gladly listen to it. It's always constructive to talk to you, I really like our exchange of comments. Yes, I am near Turin, but in a hidden valley if I can say so. There are other cabins but they are vacation homes, from their location I am not visible to them, and I would say that's okay lol. The stones are different, it's true, it's something that struck me because it gives character to the house in my opinion...aesthetically speaking

[@daniellewotherspoon6252]

It is absolutely beautiful there and your house is coming along. well done

[@mywildlifeitalia]

Thank you so much Danielle 🙏🙏🙂

[@gegemendes7387]

Olá. Amo seus vídeos, parabéns, mas seria muito bom, se deixasse a legenda disponível. Obrigada ❤

[@mywildlifeitalia]

Olá, estou feliz, obrigado. Para legendas, é um problema que às vezes afeta o KZbin em vídeos longos. Sempre insiro, mas às vezes a plataforma não as processa. Infelizmente não há muito que eu possa fazer quando isso acontece 🙏

Ciao Alex, Vedo che tuoi erbette sono cresciuti bene. Pensi di fare quel mix di erbette per carne e verdure grigliate che ti ho detto anno scorso? E molto buono, io ho fatto di nuovo questo anno. Il timo e molto buono anche per fare te. Se conosci altri erbe di montagna puoi fare te misti, hanno aromi sempre freschi di montagna. Tuo piccolo amico vedo che ancora ti fa compania. Non ti fastidicse quando dormi? Mi sono piacuti tanto anche paesaggi di montagna selvatica. Pero uno dei colori verde e troppo giallo. Ieri siamo stati in Gran Paradiso col mio marito e abbiamo preso la pioggia. Nivolet ancora non e aperto, troppo neve li, questo anno non si riesce ad uscire in weekend. Grazie per questo video rilassante! 😊

[@mywildlifeitalia]

Ciao, al Gran Paradiso ci andavo da bambino! Con le erbe faremo una pasta e qualche mix, col tempo vedremo, mia moglie sicuramente inventerà qualcosa. Per quanto riguarda il troppo giallo hai ragione, brava ottima osservazione. Purtroppo con il drone attuale non posso fare di meglio, a seconda della posizione la lente tende a variare il colore quando si vola verso il tramonto.

[@MimiPet]

@@mywildlifeitalia grazie per la risposta. Sono curiosa a vedere cosa cucinera tua moglie. Mi piace tanto cucina italiana e faccio cuocere tante cose nuove.

[@renan3916]

I enjoyed the videos more when all we could hear was the birds and the emptyness of nature, i noticed you started using some sound effects and musics which are really annoying =/

[@jules7239]

The mobile going off endlessly is way more annoying 😆

[@mywildlifeitalia]

Gentlemen, right, but I'll give you some explanations. It's not a cell phone that rings, it's sensors that I have both in the driveway of the cabin and scattered in the forest. Unfortunately I don't always remember to turn them off while filming or not to enter their detection zone. For the music some is necessary because the drone shots are silent and therefore there would be a hole in the audio. Otherwise no other sound effects. I'm sorry that some things bothered me, but I take images in the most natural way possible. In any case I will listen to your advice on eliminating these "annoyances"
