I hope you guys enjoyed this look inside my space! Let me know your favorite part of the apartment down below. 👇🏼

[@vinniciusrosa8284]

Creation Station. As a computer science student this is the place.

[@SamEckholm]

@@vinniciusrosa8284 Haha mine too.

[@SAINT-ANTONIO]

Hi Sam Eckholm, impressive living enviroment indeed! I like how well it evolved! You performed exellently giving it the best look possible! 🏆🥇Very masculine design choice. The couch looks really comfy... I could imagine that some light spots in the corners of your flat could give a great visual effect at nights, extending the room and giving good comfy moments. Have you considered some projectors running beach sceneries at your huge walls? There seems also lots of space above you for more stuff... Guitar session was pretty mood swinging!🎸 I think that you would be an exellet character for Stargate SG1Universe. There is even an actor resembling you called Lt. Matthew Scott. Wish you Sam also the best and stay safe & sharp! HOAH

[@SamEckholm]

@@SAINT-ANTONIO thanks so much!! Appreciate it haha. Yah there’s so many ideas I had.. just had to do something :)

[@animpastaishere6466]

My most favorite was figgy the plant.

[@MorganRWest]

I am disappointed to see such a talented creator have such a small audience. These videos are informative, innovating, and motivating. In fact, Sam has given me such a passion for the Air Force that I am enlisting this coming year. Much thanks and credit to his work and skills!

[@SamEckholm]

Really appreciate that!

[@troy______]

I agree

[@owenbrown5704]

Wow, he really has his life together.

[@TheInfantry98]

The military allows one to become highly successful no matter what your original income level as long as your intelligent enough. An E6 Infantrymen can bring in around 70k if he plays his cards right and he’s out of the barracks

[@n1msu]

@@TheInfantry98 having 80k youtube subscribers helps even more. This isn't normal 'infantrymen lifestyle'. Helps that his boyfriend is also an airline pilot with a lot of subscribers which makes them both combined extremely weathy.

[@coltdoolittle2251]

@SamEckholm I have been in the Air Force for a year now. This is the best experience of my life.

[@johnwalsh6163]

Awesome apartment, top class presentation, and an awesome presenter. You have a great attitude, real professionalism, courage and a very bright future! I love your videos! Keep going Sam!

[@Perspectologist]

Wow! I’m impressed. Thanks for sharing this with us. I appreciate how you balance your priorities, balancing value with higher end items. You’ve shown me some things I didn’t know I wanted.

[@amiralcookie3221]

Love that guitar, when deployed in mali with the French army i got a guitar off a local market, I used to sing songs about love so we could remember our girlfriends/boyfriends. Also the creation studio is just 🤩🤩

[@wotan10950]

I actually found your channel via Swayne’s. Your apartment is fantastic for youngish guys with exciting careers. My adult children are probably older than you, so my house is decorated in what I can only call “Early Bed & Breakfast!” My soul is from the 19th century. Anyway, good luck to you guys, and I look forward to more videos.

[@5530alex]

I love everything about your place and how the whole space represent who you are. You inspire me and love your energy. Your place is beautiful.

[@kjkj-ms7xl]

as an architect ,I think u did really well for an apartment inspired by aviation.👍👍👍 people will have good experience when they get in.

[@georgevisser9346]

Hi Sam, what a beautiful interior, the living room radiates peace and luxury, the workspace is fantastic, thank you very much for this video, it also brought me to many ideas. Hope you and Swayne make lots of videos...enjoy!! Warm regards from Holland!!

[@darylniewald1624]

Great Industrial Apartment! Love everything you have done. Thank you for sharing with us 😊

[@Adventuregirl96]

Nice place you did a wonderful job decorating and expressing yourself into it. Love the reading nook I have one in my new place and it's helpful.

[@jakemerchant950]

Now that's what I call aesthetic. Also, take a shot every time Sam says "...that I picked up off of Amazon."

[@SamEckholm]

😂

[@voodoodisco]

yeah its a link to pay him

[@diegoyepez5308]

he’s really got it together. this is such an amazing design. the guitar and singing was good too

[@ButterscotchAngel77]

Hi Sam, awesome video! I started to watch your videos while looking for information about USAFA since my son is now a C4C. I have enjoyed your travel adventures but mostly I enjoy how you are living a fun and joyful life while serving our country. Thank you for sharing your experiences as I hope the current cadets can watch your videos and be encouraged that there is life after USAFA and it is well worth it.

[@SamEckholm]

Thanks so much! Best of luck to your Doolie :)

[@SAINT-ANTONIO]

Good morning Sam, your bookshelf with your Zen Garden looks inspiring! Interesting books! Thank you for the inspirative design ideas...

[@dannydillard8233]

🎸🌱🪴 Fav is the couch/vibe area, but I'm a creative so the CS is the vibe also.

[@MegaSukhoy]

WOW...Awesome! thanks for share with us your space Sam. Is inspiring and motivates us to pursue and achieve our goals.

[@1900intz]

Thank you Sam. Nice guitar 🎸 playing and voice. Glad you’ve made such a nice home.

[@rainnguitx3702]

WOW. NGL that apartment is the kind of apartment i wanna live in when i grow up and become a pilot. Good job man,keep it up.

[@zicsoletzailub9431]

Nice to heard you enjoyed your time in Thailand and always welcome 🙏🏼

[@spiderjesse4632]

I was getting to be such a fan of yours already for I’ve recently discovered your channel but then you start playing John Mayer AND I LOST IT. HUGE DUB. COOLEST GUY EVER.

this is actually amazingly put together, both the apartment and video. ive never been so interested in someones apartment lmao

[@SamEckholm]

I appreciate that 😭

[@startupset1527]

​@@SamEckholm ⚽💝

[@Scottie404]

On your bookshelf: "Man's Search for Meaning" by Viktor Frankl. Excellent.

[@jomontanee]

Wow! It looks stunning especially the loft style windows!

[@AvanaVana]

I used to live in an renovated old department store in Brooklyn, and it had very similar windows. Really loved that place. Also the J train, which is elevated in Brooklyn, ran right outside, so I even had the same train problem as you. 😆 As beautiful as the light and industrial design was, that window was such a huge heat suck in the winter.

[@smedberg]

🎸 Nice -def picking those magnetic lamps

[@molly_edits.8041]

Wow you can sing and love your house and the pictures on the walls ow and also the creation area keep it up

[@SamEckholm]

Thanks :)

Wow I love that sign!

[@Nyra890]

Well i am very new to this channel and i became addicted! I watched like 2/4 of your videos and i enjoyed everything till the last minute! Best aviation content creator🎉❤

[@andrewsprague3855]

Awesome video! My favorite part was the creation station and when you played the guitar at the end.

[@samcarrell1669]

great song great guitar great apartment

[@KO-D00M]

Clean, organized, and visually pleasing apartment with a simple theme that doesn't overpower the natural aspects of the space. The equally attractive tenant is a plus.

[@GlitteryGaydinosaurs]

He is pretty attractive

[@AeroBueno]

Hi Sam! I loved the moon/sphere lamp in your bedroom. That one rocked the place!!

[@jayhawk09]

The production quality was amazing and I loved seeing glimpses of your sense of humor. Planning to move to Kansas City in the next 3-4 months and might steal a few ideas! Great video.

[@joeroscillo4015]

Great pad!!! Wow, you can play and sing too!!!

[@fxhndav]

Wow man, you have it all.. love it.

[@TimJimDoug]

Hey Sam. Awesome video as always. What’s the rent over there in the states for apartments like these? Although both Swanye and you have your own channels, we would love to see more footage of you together. Maybe on how you handle your relationship with two jobs in aviation etc. Greetings :)

What a great video! You did an amazing job

[@luismertins516]

Sam. I am much older than you but I love to watch your videos. My dad was an airplane pilot in my country-Guatemala- and we grew up loving airplanes. He love it but always told us to get a professional career and then consider learning to fly ( I would have not have him as an instructor, he was mean- sometimes he will turn one engine off to see how the copilots responded. I probably would never use him, even though he was a great Pilot). I became a Doctor and never did it. I still watch a lot of videos of airliners and air force jets. I love the videos taken from the cockpit. Did you ever consider flying airplanes? I live 40 minutes from St. Louis and love to go by the airport every time that I can! Great skills decorating your Hangar!. Keep doing your those great videos. Luis.

[@SamEckholm]

So cool to hear that! Thanks for the support.

[@thomashelm6931]

Excellent home and well thought out! What is used for the HVAC? The ceiling height is a bit of a challenge, perhaps. Beautiful home!

[@randyscott1496]

great video, Sam. Thanks for sharing a part of you.

[@SamEckholm]

Of course! Thanks for watching.

[@kjekel6626]

I should start playing the guitar again, haven't played since ~2014 (when I was 12). Thanks for the reminder!

Nice guitar playing at the end love your videos !
