I just wanted to say you're a boss lady for talking, over on Instagram, about how not everything is all sunshine and daisies all the time and that everybody has their own battles (even if you can't see them)! It's so important for people to hear and read that. It helps. You're wonderful so thank you!! And I hope you Alex, Roxie and the kitties enjoy your new home x

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Thank you very much, that means a lot! xx

[@xFanysk]

While I will miss seeing your lovely cottage, I am very excited to see the new place and what you will do with it. It's so sad you have to leave your shower /bathroom behind, it's soooo amazing..

[@indigosky9578]

I am imagining the new people who move in starting a channel: “Madeleine Olivia’s old house” 😆

[@cariosaoharte1212]

OMG the Safeway crates, what a throwback

[@amybennett4335]

Yes! I immediately recognised them too!

[@karenhall7191]

Funny Alex making bread in amongst the chaos 🤣 that is what I would be doing lol 😆

[@BUMOKA]

Yesss! I'm so excited for this one and all the moving and reno vlogs to come! 🧡🙌🏼 Lots of love from Germany!

[@saragutschmidt6103]

Your cat being "packed" - so cute!

[@flibbertygibbette]

I love how dogs can sense the energy of exactly where you're about to focus your attention, whether it's working out/doing yoga, cleaning house, packing up and moving... they are like NOOOO PAY ATTENTION TO MEEEEEEEEE. And I mean, fair enough.

[@beth8401]

They know and they get very stressed, believe me.

[@luciep09]

Having done 10 house moves in 13 years, I got a little bit anxious seeing those packing boxes! 😬 Can’t wait to see the new house Madeleine!

[@kmich2636]

you never feel like a minimalist during the moving process do you? i’m a minimalist but it feels like so much while packing, so stressful but i’m glad you’re in your new home now! I think my record for quickest move is 24 hours i packed house and moved across town that was wild 😅

[@pixkypix7071]

I can’t possibly imagine waiting for 6 months!! We had to wait one and a few days and it felt FOREVER!

[@Lolathebluesmartie]

Hahah "i think I need to take that ring off" 🤣🤣

[@bysarahalexander4426]

I love the whole style and vibe of your home. So cozy but sophisticated. Excited to see how you set up the new place. :D

[@niamhcreed866]

Loving the moving content, your excitement and happiness is so evident in these videos! Hope you're enjoying your new home!

[@courtneyokeefe6014]

“Do these look like green lentils?” Omg I laughed so hard 😂

[@coconutii]

EEEEEEK i'm soooo looking forward to seeing your new home! Hope Alex had a nice birthday considering all the work being done xD

[@trisarahtops8928]

I've been watching these videos whilst also decluttering and packing to move house, and they really help to get me in the right mindset! Hope the move went well!

[@katzenlady5339]

It's funny to watch you packing while we're also packing. We moved around the same time you moved in your house and now we're moving again in nearly the same time. 😁 It's unbelievable how much stuff we accumulated. It's my first apartment I'm moving out and my boyfriend just had a one room apartment, so it's a lot to pack compared to when we moved in.

[@Claudia_K.]

Ohhhh so exciting! You guys seem so chill (I’d be a hot mess before moving) and I enjoy your dynamic. I hope you and Alex and the fur family have a lovely time in your new home. You deserve it! x

[@kendrafarris9891]

Catching up on all your videos - I’ve missed a lot! Thank you so much for sharing your journey here 💛 I love decluttering or cleaning while watching your videos. 🥰

[@quinnoq1642]

it‘s so great to see the change in this video - it seems like most of the existential dread is gone, only the packing stress remains! good thing about that is the time limit ;)

[@Iris-gy2mi]

Kudos to you for keeping the packing going on the first day of your period! 🙌 Ugh, the first day is the worst! I also feel very fatigued the first day as well, completely drained of all energy. Congratulations on your new home!

[@beatewolpert8685]

I'm so excited for you ❤️ you seem so happy and the sneek peaks on Instagram look STUNNING! Can't wait for a tour in your new home! Please tell me it's the next video haha

[@BaronHumbertvonGikkingen]

"do you think i should break up with alex because he does things like this" lmfao

[@erineccentric5810]

I am so excited to see the new house and what you end up doing to it. The yard looks gorgeous

[@IzzyLo]

Found her in my recommended and really am enjoying these. Also, did anyone else’s experience a sense of dejavú. I honestly thought I was going a little crazy when the same clip played back to back.

[@rachelspoon4741]

Rollercoaster of emotions seeing the packing done as it feels like yesterday when watching you move in there. Madeleine - you are such a beautiful and inspiring young lady ^_^ wishing you and Alex happiness in your new home :)

[@lexichapman7588]

Very excited to see the new place!

[@MaddieCassidy]

cannot wait for all of these moving videos maddie 💌 so happy for the two of you!

[@meeralakshmanan7190]

Happy belated birthday to Alex😊❤️🎂🎉🎊💐!! Can't wait to see the new place!!

[@vikkielora]

We moved two weeks ago and I’m getting ptsd flashbacks 😂 congrats guys! I love how honest you are about the whole thing as realistically this part of moving sucks!

[@UnlovelyRita]

this is so cool! I've been watching your stories on Instagram and the new house looks so beautiful! So excited to see a house tour when you're finally settled :)

[@HayleyMichelle12337]

I moved into my current house from a very tiny 1 bed and we moved everything in one van. I'm defo dreading moving into a bigger house and going through everything! Good luck with the move 😃

[@brittan-morganpistole3192]

This vlog gave me SO MUCH ANXIETY! I'm moving the 1st of May--already started packing--and completely overwhelmed. I thought this would make me feel better, but instead, I just kept thinking "You only have a week! We need to get this sorted!"

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Haha I’m so sorry!

[@brittan-morganpistole3192]

@@MadeleineOlivia I'm just so glad you managed it!

[@charlenewagoner9523]

Can’t wait to see your new home!!

[@mangafreak09081]

When I moved out of my old flatshare me and my dad had to pack up everything in one afternoon. And we only had one family van to put all the stuff in and in was a serious struggle. I still can‘t believe we managed it. But I did not think about putting the stuff I need on top at all 😅

[@juliaa.9870]

Aww, I hoped to see your new home!

[@momentmemos]

Yay, excited to watch this in the evening and relax❣️

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Thank you! Hope you enjoy! xx

[@LuceWithLove]

My boyfriend and I were moving from England to Wales last year, in the middle of the pandemic, and I used to get headaches every single evening after all the packing and worrying 🙈 hope the move goes smoothly for you and you settle nicely in your new home!

[@lisak574]

Thank you for sharing your life with us, this had made lovely, lazy,b Saturday morning watching x

[@laurak7247]

That is such a weird coincidence. I also just moved one month before you and it was also in the week of my birthday. So this video feels very relatable.

[@biancas.6283]

Happy birthday, Alex!! 🎊

Good luck in your new home 🏡

I love seeing the process ! I'll be hopefully be moving out of my family house fairly soon, so it's quite exciting to see how you do it :)

[@josefinasavarese8439]

I'm going to move next month probably and I thought I could do it in one weekend and know I think I might have to do a plan in advance so I can pull it off! thanks for the moving inspiration :)

[@gill2292]

So looking forward to seeing your new home. Amazing how much we accumulate over the years. I came to the US from the UK to get married, with one suitcase! 4 kids later and many cross country moves, we have needed each time, over 24 ft tractor trailers to move our stuff! Seriously trying to declutter before the next move! Also would love to know what meals you are eating during the move to keep your energy up..Thank you and good luck

[@kingaa7]

Congratulations and good luck on your moving day 🥳

Giggling because when I first followed you....you were minimalist. Packing everything into backpack to travel!

Best kind of vlogs are moving vlogs 💗💜💗

I'm glad you love them! xx

This is all so exciting!! Having moved about 10 times in the last 11 years, I know all about the stress of moving.

Yes moving from Brighton was a lot easier. Moving is always a hassle and is very stressful❤

Hi! Where is that one line drawing print from that was in your office?? I’ve been looking for one just like it 🙂

[@Kursk431]

I liked the cottage! Are you moving into another home with higher ceilings?

[@jacintaanderson]

Watching people move makes me want to go and declutter. Haaaate moving haha

[@rebeccagreen692]

We are moving house next year and I'm not looking forward to packing up our stuff. I should do a big declutter this year.:)

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Good Luck with the move!! xx

[@draumpje]

Exciting Last time we moved, i started decluttering heavily in the year leading up to it The more you decluttered The less is there to move ;)

[@rebeccagreen692]

@@draumpje- we were going to move back in 2015 and I became almost a minimalist as I decluttered so much but then we didn't move and stuff has started to creep back in again.☺

I had packers in 2015-what bliss!!!!!

[@MsIdgie1]

Who is the artist on the first track on your video! I love it! Good luck on the move b

[@princesskaideka]

Are you staying in Cornwall? X

[@misscliffgrows]

I can't believe you packed up the whole house in a week! That's amazing! We were slowly packing for months 🤣 Do you think that being more minimal and regularly decluttering made packing to move easier?

[@sustainableteacheryt]

So cool, these videos make me want to be porductive at home XD

[@ichbin0s]

do you know, how many square meters your house has? I mean the ground and the first floor seperately

[@Woeschhuesli]

When you think how little you had when you moved from Brighton.... wow!! :O

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Yeah one bed one storey flat to a three bedroom two bath house with a garden makes a big difference!

[@VeganBeautyGirl]

I really liked the start of the video, it reminded me of old big brother episodes where they'd show you lil clips to keep you watching at the start of each episode + i'm just sat here like ... omg can't wait to see why she needs to break up with alex.

[@PaulaJoW]

Don't you wish tasks could always be done in fast-forward?

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Haha omg yes I always think this when I edit!

[@hanasykorova2839]

Alex could start ASMR channel.

[@Tanya-M]

When you packed your books, my back ached for you. Books should always be packed in small boxes or tubs to prevent back sprain. Sorry, if I'm abrupt, it's a bit of a pet peeve. My mom sells second books, and I can't tell you how many times I've picked up inventory and had to lug a 60 lb tub to the truck. Never mind, it's never just one tub. I really enjoyed this video. Thanks for sharing this process with us!

Well you're already in your new home by now. Exciting times. Pets get really stressed and uoset when they see packing up. Careful with your cat the first couple of weeks but you probably already know that.

[@sunuman4454]

Hi. I cannot believe you are leaving your beautiful cottage. Why? Xxxxxx.

[@glynnL]

I know they are trying to move without too much waste, but I worry that a lot of the boxes don’t stack well and aren’t secure. Moving a bunch of piddly little containers, boxes, and bags can mean a lot more trips and hassle than just using bigger boxes. I guess it depends on the moving company and the van. Hopefully nothing got broken along the way.

[@MadeleineOlivia]

Thankfully not!

[@glynnL]

@@MadeleineOlivia glad everything reached safely! I’ll be looking forward to the next video, whenever you are able to get to it.

[@glynnL]

@@MadeleineOlivia also you’re one of the only larger channels (that I watch) that still regularly goes through their comments and responds. I understand why not a lot of others do this, besides the time it takes, it’s not always healthy to be reading online comments on your own creative work. So your efforts stand out even more and I wanted to tell you that it’s appreciated. Thanks for making the effort and the sacrifice to be active in your own comment section. If it becomes too much, that’s understandable and no sensible person would blame you for taking a step back.
