Low Tech Self-Sufficiency in Her Amazing French Homestead 🇫🇷

[@livingbig]

Marie is one incredible woman. What she has built for herself on this land is absolutely mind blowing! It's so inspiring to see people like Marie who are so clearly following their passions in life and making things happen for themselves. I absolutely love her innovations on the land, the off-grid things she has built like the cool stoves, and how clever are those half-buried structures! That greenhouse is a dream! We hope you enjoy the tour of her amazing homestead! Thanks for watching and supporting the channel! With Love, Bryce & Rasa & Our French Videographer Gabrielle!

[@abcd-jk7mx]

Hi Bryce,i love your channel and dream about having a tiny house,but i always wonder what do they do about amenities? like food,or if u need to see a doctor/hospitale,etc...

[@nancilfilsaime]

Hi Bryce and Rasa! I absolutely love this channel! This home is absolutely gorgeous! The land the view it’s breathtaking! Thank for the share!

[@mithinie]

Bryce please add French subtitles or ask Marie if she wants to record a voice over so I can share her story with my French friends and my family ❤

[@AmusedPineTrees-wh1ed]

Thank you Bryce and Rasa, I'm 68 and I love this woman's desire to live a more connected self sufficient life. I'm living on the road in New Zealand in my motorhome. Love the nomadic life.❤

[@rivernelson7239]

Indeed what a truly incredible human being this beautiful woman is, this is an inspiring life story. To me this is the true essence of tiny houses, it’s not just the houses themselves, but, the life story behind them. Thank you very much for bringing us this story. Peace, love and happiness to all Den ❤

[@pennygreening9210]

I grew more impressed by Marie with every minute. What a wonderful woman

[@andeeanko7079]

Indeed. Amazing woman!

[@Jchathe]

Wow, some people do nothing with their lives. This wonderful lady has been living to the max and long may she continue! Fabulous story, thank you for sharing 🙏💕

[@theWZZA]

This is what happens when you march to the beat of your own drummer and trust in your own resourcefulness.

[@Jchathe]

@@theWZZA Yes, I couldn't agree more

[@Jchathe]

@@UmdogTR Er, in a GOOD way!

[@alexandersushko6211]

Easy to do if you come from $

[@theWZZA]

@@alexandersushko6211 I don't see anything she did as easy. It looks like hours upon hours of hard work, solving problems, and refinfing solutions. Much harder than taking unwarranted potshots from a keyboard

[@MariaBella-h5c]

I am so amazed of how Marie is, independent, self reliant and a woman who is full of talent

[@easygii]

yes, she's giving very witchy vibes. thats the highest compliment.

[@peterwillcox9429]

The important thing to take from this video is the fact it’s finding what is important in life to find fulfilment. It’s not a fancy house or all the bling that goes with it. It’s connecting with the world we live in a meaningful way.

[@GabVnd]

Well said! Thanks for you comment.

[@birdhamilton]

Amen to that..❤️💪🏽

[@peaceforchildren4303]

nicely put!

[@alextrezvy6889]

The important thing is ppl already wasted most of cheap/available resources. So the tiny 'houses' is the only way to go

[@daisylyn2336]

She's must be the most resourceful empowered woman on the internet! And she has 2 horses! So rich!

[@fereldensandwich982]

I love that she updated her living environment as her son grew to accommodate his wishes too.

[@gust1x]

Wow, her story is like nothing else!

[@gamtngirl3655]

Marie is amazing. Awesome & creative. And, Marie, thank you for not ever moving without your two horses, your dog, and your cat. I know they are grateful.

[@guesswho4555]

👏👏👏🖤 I am green with envy at her lifestyle. Long may she enjoy happiness and contentment.

[@susandam5153]

What a courageous woman with exquisite taste! Thank you for sharing your story. I loved it!

[@livingbig]

You're very welcome!

[@ktdisco]

This is such a unique episode - thank you for showing so many different alternate lifestyles and building styles. This woman is incredible and such an innovator!

[@GabVnd]

@tkdisco thank you so much forbyour comment! So glad you like this kind of episode 😊

[@cya2163]

a-MAZ-ing!!! It IS a beautiful life and I wish I would have had her courage when I was much younger bc thatn is exactly how I wish to have lived. God bless...

[@laddoothesweet6381]

This channel has shown the most high-tech of Tiny houses and then there is this one that actually personifies the actual meaning of this channel - Living BIG. Marie is my kind of person (Monami), LOVES ANIMALS, In tune with nature and cares about the universe enough to step out of her own comfort zone. RESPECT. The best I have seen on this channel so far.

[@GabVnd]

Wow thank you so much for your comment! 😮❤ I'm very glad you liked this episode and Marie's lifestyle. 😊 Gabrielle

[@fcdl5688]

I have seen a lot of fancy and modern tiny houses on this show and they are all lovely, but this one stole my heart with its simplicity and efficiency. Deep inside, it’s not a mansion I crave, it’s peace and harmony with nature.

[@GabVnd]

Wow thank you so much for your comment!! ❤

[@Wayfarer889]

Me too! It is the pulse of this dream that keeps calling me. But although I am resourceful, I am not at all inclined to build things. I love that this place is such a beautiful expression of her spirit, and I aim to create a similar experience for the 2nd half of my life.

[@figmo397]

Marie is amazing! I love the way she not only put on the extension to her "caravan" tiny home, but that she also built two cabins for the hotter summer months. One of my favorite things was that bicycle-controlled washing machine. There's something about using yourself as a power generator that seems really cool!

[@thinkplanetearth2946]

My goodness, the woman is simply impressive, and charming, and fearless. I mean, wow. Talk about living life to the fullest. And it's a great education that she's giving her son in learning not only to be self sufficient, but to living life on your own terms. Great example.

[@JanesDough855]

This is one tough and determined woman. I love her zest for living a good and clean life, and she is teaching her the son the basics that so many of us lack. What more do you need but a solid roof over your head, good food and water, and the ability to become more One with Nature. I wish her and her son the Very Best in their coming years.

[@ElizabethGrindon]

Love the pedaling washing machine and her reading a book while she pedals! So inventive! Also such a beautiful smile!

[@katella]

I think that these pedal machines should be offered for sale. I'm sure there are people who would like to get their exercise and laundry done at the same time.

[@johncopeland3826]

You have one of the most astonishing lifestyles possible Marie ..I am in awe of your total independence . Fresh air ...freedom ...animals ...peace and quiet....natural foods and no one to have an argument with ...now that's the life alright . Best wishes from Scotland and enjoy yourself .

[@ardethellis8930]

Wow. Just wow. I need to rewatch this every week to remind me what is possible. Thank you Bryce and Rasa for bringing Marie to us.

[@GabVnd]

Ankcyou so much fornyou comment! Very happy you like this episode :) Gabrielle

[@emilypeterson4886]

This woman must never have a boring day in her life! Everytime i thought that the video was nearing the end (because surely she couldn't accomplish MORE, right?) it kept just kept going on. 🤯 one of the wisest humans on earth. Wow, what an honor it would be to be her friend 🩷

[@delphina1111]

This is so liberating compared to all the fancy tiny house videos. She brings elegance to true simplicity. In her i see there is a saintliness to living in such harmony!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@mattoliver7765]

This homestead shes got going on is brilliant the dream what an amazing woman too

[@elGordo1888]

What an utterly astonishing woman!

[@BreaBreaBreeze]

This woman is a living breathing example of taking life by the horns. She is a true nurturer and caretaker of her child, the land, animals, plants and others. She’s using her time on earth and FULLY LIVING. What a woman! I bet her birth chart is out of this world lol

[@alicemoon-star367]

Marie is a very inspiring and beautiful soul, she has so much optimism, knowledge and self sufficiency about living in the world!

[@jeniehuynh4805]

This chick is bomb! Is there anything she can’t do ? What a bloody warrior LOVES IT ! Hugs from Australia 🇦🇺 xxx

[@rebeccaandersen655]

What a beautiful person!

[@NunyaBiznes-o2u]

So glad she's the type that brings her animals even tho it's challenging. Love u animals

[@Aziyza]

Really enjoyed this one. The lady has a beautiful spirit. She accomplished so much and watching her story at the same time makes me sad. Thanks for sharing.

[@Lalita_Chevaliere_108]

Why does it make you sad?

[@pdq5465]

My goodness, what an an astonishing woman!!! Apparently, she’s not daunted by anything. And she’s so accomplished, with her education, building skills, gardening/farming skills, animal care, music, bilingual. So impressive. It seems that there’s nothing she can’t do. Thanks for sharing this lady with us.😮🇨🇦

[@jackiewalsh5081]

What an inspirational woman.

[@K3Bear11]

A woman after my own heart....no matter what....no matter how many times she moves...she always takes her animals with her!!! I wish other people would do the same!! I know I always have too!! Bless your heart Marie!! OX

[@meloearth]

A truly creative and curious spirit and I love it that she carries her entire family with her as she moves. She does not abandon animals, as so many people do. And the smile on her face is constant. Inspiring!

[@angelaberni8873]

Not only is this lady very talented ,her English is far better than many Brits. Hats off to her !!!

[@meimei-jh6of]

Just wow! Nothing else to add .. wow what a lady!

[@ListeningLibrary.g]

From Japan, I am watching with interest.

[@lynnecahill2859]

Marie is a very inspirational woman! I am sure her son must think his mom is like superwoman! And I’m sure that she’s raised him to be a very self-sufficient and just an overall good human being. I wish her luck on her next nomadic adventure. I wonder if her son will be taking care of the horses or will she take them with her? Either way best of luck, Marie! Good find Bryce!🥰🥰🥰

[@alaneverett2531]

What a hard working gorgeous lady ❤

I really want Marie to be my friend! What an amazing, inspiring, wonderful human!
