First Time SWIMMING IN OUR NEW POOL - (During a STORM)

Finally we are able to jump into our half full pool! But it was during a storm :D

[@mbcat43]

Plant more trees along side your house, so when there's a severe storm to prevent from landslide, and it will look more beautiful!. love your new house!

[@mylifeinthedesert4942]

I adore so much to this couple. You can see them both really working hard to secure their future in the Philippines. Especially Finn who could choose to have a very good life in Iceland but somehow found his home in the Philippines with Sherlyn. Likewise to Kyle “kulas” found his home in the philippines. Finn and Kulas i think are directing their life to the same direction. I support this two vloggers since they have few hundreds subscribers. God bless you!

If your newly purchased sapling endured a rough night of windy, wet weather, you might notice it is now leaning. Knowing how to fix a leaning tree in this situation can save your tree from growing crooked or possibly dying. If the soil is still wet, it shouldn’t be too hard to do, but it the soil dried out, you can soak it with a garden hose first. Here are the steps you can follow: Use a mallet or sledgehammer to drive 2-3 stakes into the ground, at a 45-degree angle, around the tree. Take care not to place them too close to the tree to avoid hitting the rootball. Push the tree upright using even pressure along the trunk. This could take more than one person if the tree is already a decent size. If the tree was already fairly rooted, this may take a bit of effort, but use slow, steady pressure to avoid damaging the trunk or branches. Use straps meant for staking a tree (found at the hardware store) and secure the tree to the stakes. Using straps that are wide and made of canvas is ideal to avoid damaging the tree. Never use rope, cables, or barbed wire as this will harm the tree and leave it susceptible to disease and pests. Check the position of the tree after you’ve tied the straps to the stakes and reposition if necessary by tightening one side or the other to get it fully upright. If the soil around the base of the tree has shifted, gently push it down to keep the roots protected, and further support the tree. Give the tree time to anchor itself in the new position. You may want to keep an eye on it for the first several months, especially if it has been windy or rainy, to ensure the straps haven’t come loose, allowing the tree to lean again.

Am super kilig with your excitement. You both are blessed 😇and it feels good to see you enjoying the fruits of your hard work🤩Beautiful FinnLyn Palace with certainly million dollars scenery around and beyond.

[@angelitasmith8794]

Hi Finn and Sherlyn. I admired you both in making your dream home come true. Also your ecology project, planting trees, fruit, vegetables and animals etc. looking after the environment and planet that we all lived in. You both are inspirations to us all. Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us. Good luck to all your projects and thank you for choosing Philippines as your home with your beautiful wife. Take care and god bless you both always. 🙏😊❤️

[@genepothier8398]

Finn & Sherlyn … almost there. Beautiful home with great views. What else could one ask for? Fantastic! If I may make a suggestion, if you are not going to drain the pool again I would suggest adding algecide to the pool to prevent algae buildup.

[@mylene-eg4wf]

Perfect time to have kids to finally and completely call it home. Be happy always.

[@markjavier5533]

Hello there Finn! I'm unsure if your area often experiences strong storms, but considering the number of exposed glass doors, I recommend installing brackets that would allow you to easily slide plywood panels into place to serve as storm shutters.🙂👌

[@paulfredrickson2181]

Beautiful homes guys. Many wonderful years of home life for you and your family.

[@AFSHomestead]

Finn, Sherlyn, and Jake's team, it is great to see you enjoying the house. As far as your tree, at times, cutting the tip is the only solution to slow down the growth, and aventually new branches will grow after the tree strengthens itself. As far as the cats 🐈 they will enjoy the pool if you get them in water early as kitties 😸 enjoy

[@FinnSnowVlogs]

Thanks for the tips!

[@claribelpalomares260]

The most anticipated moment! At last you did it, guys, even when the water's half-full. Couldn't resist, huh! You both were like little children playing in the pool, so carefree and funny, haha! The sound of your laughter was filling the screen and found myself laughing along with you guys. Ah! It feels good to be alive and enjoying life. Lots of fruit-bearing trees, something to look forward to in the future. And you and Sherlyn be blessed with small feet running around your beautiful house. Always stay safe and God bless us all.

[@victorpatiu8491]

I’m laughing so hard when Finn said it’s cold😂 I’m thinking you are from Iceland and I’m sure you are used to cold! But I know what you mean. So much fun to swim under the rain👍🏻😄💕Good fun🌻

[@aidalaurente5559]

[@mariaross4340]

Wow, beautifully finished house-congratulations to you both! Yes, I couldn't agree more that domestic pets should be spayed or neutered by responsible pet owners-this is to avoid a bunch of stray cats and dogs out in the street! So lovely that you two are setting an excellent example for the community👏💕

[@joereima198]

This is excellent! I bet its going to be refreshing! Out of curiosity, how do you circulate/change the water in your pool? I'm sure you have some kind of system for that. I have always wanted to know how people who have pools, do that. Can you enlighten me, please? Looks paradise what you have there.

[@raphaelrennaissance3027]

I enjoyed watching your first reaction to your first dip, nice! very nice!....Will the tank be there permanently? The panoramic view is obstructed. Jake is always scratching I presumed he has lots of tick(s )a parasitic arachnid-it sucks blood. Please check where he scratches. He can be treated. Check your other dogs too.....Nice pool, it is nice to swim even it rains. Happy to both of you, Congratulations!!!!

[@joelreyes8175]

Really nice to see how all your hard work, sacrifices and effort have finally rewarded and given u guys the fruits of your labor. It’s a great feeling! Power on! lol

[@milacaibal3976]

You can install a robot swimming pool cleaner like Mikey Bustos used in his swimming pool. It will save you a lot of time and effort to clean the pool. Love your house. It's slowly coming to life. Your dreams are coming true. Take care and God bless you and Sherlyn and everyone.❤❤❤

Hi Finn...I've been watching you ever since then and how goal oriented & a family guy you've become😊 Proud of you and thank you for choosing 🇵🇭to be your home too👩‍❤️‍👨 God Bless..From 🇨🇦

[@offthecuffadventureswithjamie]

Congrats guys on your first swim! I’m sure you’re both overjoyed. 😊

[@fayecastillano7267]

Hello Finn and Sherlyn, avid ko since then, here in Jeddah. KSA just a piece of advice about ur Narra tree, just put a steel pipe, tied up to the main tree so it will be stronger while growing up..

[@tomato8888]

Everything is beautiful♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️ With regards to the narra tree, plug in a long piece of wood or a bamboo next to the tree, Just make sure that it is deep so it will be sturdy, then tie the plant loosely. You can use a screw to hold the rope ir string in place so that it will not slide down. You can wait till the tree reach at least 3m high before you cut the tip to encourage growth of branches. This should slow down the growth of trunk vertically but it should become thicker to hold new branches. I hope this helps.

[@dennispatrick4999]

Put up a very tall pole next to the tree trunk and use a soft plastic gardening tape to attach the tree and support pole.

[@celynatividad4584]

Great house location, amazing view, beautiful happy couple! ❤ Just one question, wondering if those tiles around the pool are slippery?

[@nesspersonalvlog5760]

Wow! Congrats Finn & Sherlyn🎉❤. The pool is beautiful so as the entire house.

[@neilfpv]

WOW! Very beautiful house at a very amazing place! Glad you enjoyed it! ☺

[@gingerl2995]

Lol scuba Finn from Iceland won’t go in pool. I think Sherlynn is more excited about the pool. Sorry I got a little giggle from that. Everything looks so nice guys. Coming along great.

[@dennisb7930]

I love how you controlled all the water to use it that’s great,not sure on the monotony tree if you top it off ? Find out from a knowledgeable person. The house looks great you’ve created a real plantation congrats Finn n Sharlyn

[@milacaibal3976]

Please put a support piece of long wood to support your Narra tree when it's still young. Thar's what we do with the Maple trees here in Canada when the gov't planted the young trees. Good luck.❤❤❤

[@donquixote1502]

[@romeong5218]

Plant sampaguita around the pool, so as to act as barriers. Also Ilang-ilang trees. When the gentle wind blows, your whole house will be fragrant.

[@stevec7712]

Hello from America - I would use two large bamboo poles and make a splint to hold the tree straight

[@lullaby1925]

Maybe u can add Agoho tree as well it makes a nice soft touch to the landscape. Gives a more relaxed and airy feel to the eyes.

[@roycd6950]

you can cut the narra tree so that it will branch out.... plant more native flowering trees around.... narra has a beautiful flower.

[@debbieco2967]

Hi FINN that mansanita is called aratiles here in Luzon,that is a superfruit,it can cure Diabetes,just 10 pieces of ripe one a day it can lower ur blood sugar😊

[@gerardpadua1980]

You should have been in your classic old yellow shorts Finn. 😂

[@winnieabeng9263]

You two looks like two happy kids enjoying in the swimming pool

[@El_.5794]

Put a tree cage around your Nara tree long enough to support and protect it from bowing from the wind. Tree cage also serve as a brace in training the tree to grow i straight. Your trees are vulnerable to bowing from where the wind blows because there are no other tall trees or structures that covers and acts as a natural windbreaker. It should have been planted away from where the wind typically blows. Tying also helps from breaking it. Just be sure it has balance

[@AngryKittens]

I still can't get over how gorgeous your view is.

[@manungjoeblogchannel]

❤ nice swimming pool..at last you can used privacy.nice❤👍🌐🇵🇭

[@tinanugget5419]

Such a beautiful place to live 🌴🏝️🏞️🌄🌅🌿🌊🌊🌊💧🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭💚💚💚

[@artemiodunay2512]

Drive a bamboo pole beside your narra tree, then tie the tree to the pole to control the tree as it grows...then maybe prune the early branches to get a nice long straight tree in the future.

[@dynastyduck3799]

Finn, the issue with your trees, I'm sure you already know, but you can dig a hole right next to the tree and temporarily drive a thick wooden inside the hole, like a post, and strap the tree to it with plastic zip ties; you can then later remove the poles :))

[@carolyncain617]

Awesome! So happy for you guys. Enjoy.

[@2011Mamamia]

pruning the top during rainy season is good for new young trees, its good for future growth of the trees..open up canopy of the tree..

[@luzespejo123]

Very nice house Finn and sherlyn. Congratulations.

[@larryt90745]

For your nara tree that's still has a skinny trunk, drive 1 or 2 long narrow post next to it but sturdy (like a 2" x 2") without damaging root ball then tie trunk to posts until trunk is thick enough to stay upright.

[@vidapdl6854]

Great to keep you cool on this warm weather!

[@ylocoslovakia]

Put a stake (wood or metal) beside the narra tree or any soft trees for support to help it grow tall and sturdy. I used old crates and removed the top portion also to keep animals from eating the leaves.

[@HONEYBEE10589]

Wow! You guys is in the nice Beautiful spot place😍

[@OtterMom]

Beautifulhome..but I hope it is non slip tile!! Also, not forward thinking for old age!! Haha it comes to us all. I wish we had planned for it ourselves when we built our paradise in Palawan.

[@OtterMom]

@@dionfield1558 it’s need not in the pool but around the pool when you get you, if the tiles are shiny you can still slip and fall

[@OtterMom]

@@dionfield1558 Good to know.

[@ajpw2d489]

For the Narra tree, place a long straight pole beside it and use it as a guide for the tree to grow straight up.

[@robadventure8007]

At least the rain helps you to see something to adjust from your house.... earlier 👍

[@araceligalolo2651]

Congratulations Finn and Sherlyn.❤

[@bryanprehoda]

So happy for you guys. Your dreams are becoming more realized each day

[@Owen-o9j]

For your trees You have to use long stakes to tie to it for a year so that the hardiness of stem and strong roots can catch up and support its growth. Be careful not to damage the skin with the rope when you tie. Use a small one foot garden hose to feed in the rope and rope the tree with it,

[@mjjamwal3870]

It’s a beautiful house 🏠 beautiful place as well

[@samuelcanfield703]

Certified arborist: Living in South Cotabato. Terminate the top of the Nara tree. Go down until you reach about 1/3 diameter of the base of the tree and terminate there. IE if base is 90cm, go down from top until you reach 30Cm and make cut there. Try and make cut close to branches that are spreading.

[@jbond1991]

Haven't watched in a while. WOW! Your compound turned out amazing! What a life:)

Jeez I feel excited about your pool i feel like jumping to it too hahaha I was all smiling watching you guys in that pool! Oh I love swimming too and I miss it so much! Come on start filling in with water, i do hope on your next blog it will be the swimming pool for real! LOL
