I Bought Land... (My Dream Property)

[@evazubeck]

Thank you SO MUCH for all your wonderful comments ❤ Just to clarify: I'm not going to stop travelling or creating adventure films, but I do hope to find a way to split my time between travel (which I still love), and my new home (which I now also love). Very grateful to all of you for being here and making this dream possible. You are by far the best community I could have ever wished for.

[@mirka]

​@@evazubeck Nobody can "make you feel" certain way. Ignorant ppl treated Poles as inferior, sometimes. Britons conveniently forgot who saved London in WWII, who broke Enigma code. Their ignorance however wasn't any reason to agree with them. Poland has unique history, we were able to retain Polish identity despite living more than a century without a country. Something to be PROUD of.

I am 83 years old and spent most of my life travelling. Even by the time I was 20 I had lived in three different countries and had probably seen 20 more. As a journalist, I again lived and worked in a number of different countries (nine, in fact) and visited 40 or 50 more. Between the ages of, say, 30 and 70 I never stayed anywhere for longer than a year. I speak five languages (English is not my native language) which is handy when you're on the move all the time. I cannot stay in one place, and if anyone asked me "how are you?" my standard reply for years was "fine, as long as I know I won't be here this time next year!" That's all come to an end now and I live in Australia, more or less by accident. I seem destined to be here until I call it a day, but there are worse places, trust me. Anyway, talking about Poland, the first time I saw it I "hated" it. It seemed grey and sombre and uninviting. But then I came back a couple of times more and, like you, I suddenly saw what I had missed the first time: Poland is unbelievably beautiful. Warsaw may not be the most attractive capital city in the world, but then again Stockholm didn't impress me, either. For the record, I found Poles seemed unversally nuts, but in a good way. I wish you luck as a brand-new landowner and rather think that after all your travels (yes, I've been following you for a while now), I'm sure you will have no regrets. If this has ended up being longwinded, I apologise...

I'm an American and I know that area of Poland really well. My grandparents are from there and I have family there still. The Poles have been a brave and stalwart people who fought to recover from WW II and then only to live under the boot of Communism. They have reinvented themselves yet again, building a strong economy, saving their cultural assets for future generations, developing modern ecological policies, and best of all, saving their family farms while here in the U.S. our farmers are being run out of business by corporate interests. There are large communities of Poles here in the U.S., just not in wilderness areas, which is what you were really looking for. The Carpathians were the absolute best choice for you. Open space. Fresh air. Four seasons. Uncrowded. I know that you will love it there. xoxo Suzi

I understand that you wanted to buy land somewhere in the US but wow what a place you've got now and southern Poland seems beautiful!! I can only wish Sweden were that beautiful and had such an amazing nature!! Congratz Eva!!

[@bouji_]

Poland seems like beautiful country to me. Congratulations.

[@in-the-catbird-seat]

Congrats, Eva. I’m much older and have not only owned several homes, but I have sold hundreds, and I can tell you that home is wherever you are. Congrats on rooting yourself to this new place, for however long you make it your home. ❤

[@jimettamarna417]

Eva - I’m American, but my wife was born in Krakow. I love Zakopane, and the region your property is in. Even with me as foreigner, I’ve felt local Goral people very friendly. CONGRATULATIONS!

[@markgubala9658]

My family is from there also. A long time ago.

[@danielledegeorge2129]

Congratulations Eva!!!! I'm so very happy for you! You're right. I live in the US and we rent because land is so expensive. You're truly blessed and looking forward to many more videos exploring your new kingdom! ❤

[@Simulera]

The thing about land is this: if you come to a point that you change your mind, need to leave, whatever, you can sell it and try something else. On the other hand, you can stay. And that is what you seem to have in mind. So, set off and enjoy Carpathia.

[@terryjagers2280]

Great news, maybe you should build a Yurt on your land?, quick & easy to set up to allow you longer term thinking on how you develop the rest of your land?

[@charonstyxferryman]

Yurts has heating problems. All the heat will collect just under the roof, while it's very cold at the floor level

I understand, I am from the Appalachian mountains and I ended up coming home after being gone most of 11 years. I now live on a hill, in the woods and we have at least five different berries on our place and 3 different nut trees. Good luck and stay safe.

Hell yeah Poland, you have an amazing country and an amazing history that the entire world needs to respect!

Time for a log cabin and a small barn. You could live 100% off grid if you can get to the water table for a well. Cant wait to see how it all works out.

[@charonstyxferryman]

It would be really beneficial if there is a stream on her property. A tiny hydro power generator can make quite a lot of electricity.

[@angie-louapprentiepianiste8322]

Dear Eva. I also travelled a lot in my life... and when I was a young teacher at the UFU (MG), I was close to settle in Brasil. Finally, I came back to France once retired... Seems you gonna make soon the same choice... I wish you to be the happiest in your life, whether it'll be with your dog or your future companion (;-)) in such a beautiful landscape (far from the Ukrainian absurdity I hope...). Keep close to the nature and practicing sport : From your brightful smile it clearly shows it is good for your mental (Acordin to Juvenal : "Mens sana in corpore sano"). Just make your dreams become true !!!

[@Aaron-nw7qx]

Further evidence that the path from travel/vanlife influencer to homestead influencer is a straight line. Glad that dog now has a place to roam!!

[@scotttan6377]

The region name itself - the Carpathian Mountains - sounds magical . Looking forward to many chapters ( episodes ) of your new lifestyle - homesteading . Congratulations !

[@evazubeck]

It truly is magical ✨

[@A_Canadian_In_Poland]

Surprising that you said that land was affordable in Poland and then pointed to a place on the map close to Zakopane, one of Poland's most expensive cities. I was thinking of southern Podkarpackie when you mentioned "Poland, affordable property and Carpathian mountains".

[@ShawNshawN]

I went skiing near Zakopane. If you can believe it in 1989, you could ski, rent a lodge and drink beer daily for about $50 a week. It was wild. Very cool place to ski. I'm sure its way more expensive now.

[@darek4488]

@@ShawNshawN It is more expensive, but the standards of everything have improved too.

[@djobrien1119]

A little late to the party but so happy for you Eva! Congratulations on your land!! I love your excitement on your find of blueberry and strawberry and mint tree/bushes! How wonderful is that! Yes the land is welcoming you without a doubt! What a wonderful steward you will be! Best of luck to you and Vilk! ❤

[@Lixmage]

Eva I am so glad you rekindled your love of your home country and so sorry the UK was responsible for you losing it in the first place. I associate Poland with the breaking of the German Enigma machine in WW2 if that helps. Greetings from England!

[@HolgerJakobs]

Breaking the enigma was done by Alan Turing.

[@Lixmage]

@@HolgerJakobs Yes, indeed it was at Bletchley Park, and the first Enigma machine the British codebreakers got their hands on was provided to them by the Polish...

[@wethepeople7629]

As a child back in 1984 I spent a couple weeks in the Romanian Carpathian Mountains and it was magical!!! I’m going to visit this year again at the end of August. I’m 48 years old now and it will bring back some wonderful/beautiful memories.

[@christopherharris6005]

Awesome video as always Eva and Vilk. Congratulations on buying your own peace of land on this wonderful earth that God has blessed us with. Keep up the great work protecting our planet.

[@Deb_BG]

I actually burst into tears when you expressed gratitude for the wild strawberries. Beautiful.

[@markcrosbie3699]

Wild berries are so much better! Twice the flavour packed into half the size.

[@Deb_BG]

@@markcrosbie3699 When I was 6 visiting my relatives in Italy, I remember picking wild blackberries. Sixty years later, I still haven't tasted any store bought berry that comes close to the sweetness. I still dream of them.

"nie pytaj mnie dlaczego wciąż zasypiać i budzić się w niej chcę...". Mialem 15 lat gdy wyjechałem do Kanady. Gdy wróciłem, bo nie było we mnie tyle odwagi aby się usamodzielnić, nie podobało mi się tu, było tu tak szaro i zawistnie, wydawało mi się że zamieniłem siekierkę na kijek. 25 lat później żyję wspaniałym życiem w kraju który kocham i który dał mi dużo łez ale jeszcze więcej radości. Polska.

What a gorgeous, bright young lady ..... wonderful attitude !!!

[@trueloveingod2691]

Congratulations, you did what many people are never able to achieve: you found HOME! And what a stunningly beautiful home it is. Poland is a gorgeous Country with lots of great people. Sad that history has made them suffer, but it’s a wonderful land, and there’s much to be confident in as being from there. The view there is magnificent. But there are BEARS 🐻 and other wild animals that are both awesome and potentially dangerous, so always consider that. Especially with wild berries growing there, the bears will consider that their food source. So be careful, you and Vilk. As far as a building, they do sell prefabricated homes that are inexpensive, really well-made, and fully equipped for a quick settling in. I’m sure there are many options available. I’m very excited for you, this is truly an amazing homecoming. A new phase just beginning with lots of adventure of a different kind. And I’m here for it. God bless you, Eva and Vilk, here’s wind in your sail 💨 ⛵️!

[@evazubeck]

[@danaalbert3890]

Eva- you are the most amazing person I’ve ever encountered. We are very similar but your travel style is different but better than mine. I’ve been to 68 countries. I’ve lived in 10ish. I first hitched hiked across the USA at age 15, and hitched it three other times to include hoppinga freight train for four days- no food or water. I drove a motorcycle across the USA at age 16. I drove a British Austin Healey cross country at 18. I just returned from Spain backpacking- my 20th trip to Spain. I went to Ukraine recently during the war. I took a photo tour of South Africa in 1986- during apartheid. I’ve lived in the jungles of Colombia. I served in five war zones, the last was Afghanistan, but I had to learn the language first. Life has been good. I live in Boston, New Hampshire, Florida and California. I was recently in Poland- Krakow and Warsaw-of course.- third trip to Poland. So, how can I be more like you? You’re highly educated (Berkeley for me), business minded, pet lover, adventurous. So much in common. I leave next week for Boston- New Hampshire- Quebec City. Let’s chat some time. Your biggest fan. I go to Alaska soon… and Argentina too.

[@michaelcheli5842]

Eva. One would never guess that you're a happy landowner; except for that beaming smile of yours, which just slightly gives it away. 😂 Roy Rogers from America used to say; "buy land, they ain't making no more." And I really thought you were going to settle in the U.S. and that your followers might even get to attend a housewarming gathering at your new homestead in America; but it looks like America's loss, is Poland's gain. And as a Northern California landowner myself, I have an affinity for beautiful land, and the land that you recently purchased in the Carpathian Mountains, is absolutely breathtakingly gorgeous! Wishing you every success in making your land dreams come true; and I'm glad you'll still be traveling from time to time as well. I look forward to watching your posts, and catching up on your goings ons.

[@bobbiejay2085]

Poland is central Europe, not eastern. Most migrants experience judgement to varying degrees. Native born can also have a hard time growing up. Poland is beautiful. People too. You can now find yourself ... and be at peace. No need to run away. You've been called home. Europe is incredible. The beauty extraordinary. I'm in a tiny country close by. It called me and I'm Australian. Have fun.
