UPEA SAUNA 🙋🏻‍♀️🇫🇮 yhtä upea kun teidän kartano 🌟💫

[@Tcosby]

What a beautiful life you all have & love the video, I had questions about the bathroom too..although I've watched you from the first video I had forgotten where it was located. Have you ever considered opening the wall between the cowbarn & make your living space in the cabin larger even with your other cabin build you'd have more space for now ? I love watching Ivar growing up..I wish all children could be so peaceful & happy. Hope to see more videos & have a happy Christmas ! Love from the USA !

[@TheMariepi3]

I recommend to that unfortunate family that in such a cold and snowy climate, that they have reindeer and yaks as cattle (these cattle are like cows covered with a lot of long hair, they withstand the cold very well, they are beginning to be considered as cattle in greenland, and can be milked)

[@BengtochEmily]

Ni inspirerar oss. Tack för era fina videor

[@julesanderson552]

When the world around us seems to be falling apart and people look at the violence as if it's a hit TV show. Your family are a breath of fresh air, a calm in the storm. Watching Ivar learn and grow into the man he will become, with life skills and dedication to family that most kids will never learn in today's world. Blessings

[@ca6177]

100% true! So glad I found this channel! So refreshing!

[@snowpixxie6673]

This beautiful and kind child is raised by wonderful parents. You simply bring joy in my life and whenever you upload a video, I call my family and we watch it together. I admire you both soo very much for so many reasons. Thank you for sharing all these videos, thank you.

[@lacyLeeK]

Awww! I need friends to do this with. It's such a good idea! Thanks for sharing.

[@dRb33f]

This has to be one of my favorite videos you have both done. Simply wonderful to watch from start to finsh. Keep warm and safe in these winter months 💚💚

[@loriwilliams2167]

I remember that stage with my kids. They start to outgrow the nap but got tired around 4. If they fall asleep then they're awake until late. I guess a short, little nap is the answer. I think it's great Ivar sleeps outside. Some people are so nervous about their kids in the cool air, but it's so healthy! Love your videos and hearing about your life.

[@beachnmountains]

Yeah. My boy is 3 but now he naps at daycare, but when he's not in daycare he won't sleep and if he does it's always when we put him in the car seat after a long drive!

[@judith6696]

Do they have bears or wolves there?

[@kathrynmoll86]

Along with your camera work, photography, room lighting, and editing, I've noticed sweet Ivar's vocabulary improves with every video! Thank you so much, Mathias and Tova, for giving us a glimpse into a life's work we would should all be living. I could go on and on about the beauty of Malva, the tabby cat, the sheep, the chickens, and the animals you take care of, but in short I love everything about your content! Hugs to the three of you!

[@sharonford9605]

I have been following your journey for a year now and find that it brings joy and hope to my outlook on life. Fifty years ago my husband and I chose a similar off grid lifestyle on Bowen Island, British Columbia, Canada. We had sheep (Suffolk), goats and chickens. No electricity and water from the brook. Our house was a loggers’ cabin built in 1800s from four inch thick cedar planks. Good luck in your quest for a sustainable lifestyle, and keep your relationship strong. I look forward to seeing your family move into the house. 🐝🐝🍀. Sharon, Victoria, BC.

[@bethelle9099]

Are you still there?

[@monikacarless_wordwitch]

Sharon what a wonderful picture you paint of your Bowen homestead. My daughters used to live there. I has a similar few years in a cabin in the woods in Ontario. I'm in Victoria too.

[@PScottCummins]

We always admire Bowen Island when journeying up to Malibu on the Princess Louisa Inlet every summer! I hear the views from the south side of the island at night toward Vancouver are magical.

[@lilia5144]

Can you see the happiest child in the world? I can say: Yes. When I watch your vlogs, I believe, that some day every child will be so happy and free as your boy is. The God bless your family 🙏💝

[@DavidWvu]

@@chickenlover657 What are you talking about? That beautiful boy is always smiling. He looks so very well fed and healthy. He gets to read books with his parents. He's very happy around all the animals. Ivar is so blessed to be in the environment that he's in and to have two wonderful parents that love him so much. I could only wish that all the children on this earth could have and enjoy the life that Ivar has. He is very lucky.

Having a Swedish grandmother and being raised around her you know her ways was having us kids sleeping with the bedroom door closed up and windows open she always said that the cold air when a person sleeps help keeps colds and sickness away and I believe it to this day. My windows are wide open in the winter time and cold air comes in and a person sleeps soundly and is not as sick as others get.

[@rmsdimplessodeepicoulddrin5703]

Wow I've never heard of that! Being raised in the US my first thought was, "surely the cold air would make you sicker.." but after researching it, it's true :D

[@helenabravi4161]

I haven't seen little ones put outside to nap since I was very young in Germany. I Love that this practice still goes on -- it's so healthy!! Also love everything you do on your off-grid farm.

[@ca6177]

I had never seen this done before, but I have to admit when I took care of my first grandson, if we went for a walk and he fell asleep, I would let him sleep in his stroller and it was fine! I sat there and watched him sleep! It was wonderful!

[@robynjohnsob6395]

Aren’t you worried a wild animal could attack your sleeping child who is alone and asleep outside?

[@amazinganna9982]

They both have many excellent qualities, and I am especially struck by Tova's strength, gracious spirit, and natural beauty. She is like Demeter/Ceres, and Antonia in the Willa Cather novel though more complex. It is good to see young people working the land and utilizing a wise mix of old and new ways. God bless this dear family!

[@pennyolson1143]

Love the look into your day! Your son will be so bright with all the reading you do with him and the time you spend with him! Wish all children had such good parents! Love the drone shots !!!!!

[@Lisboooa]

I know it’s a hard life but in my heart you are so blessed. This way of living is so pure it makes me tear up. I look around and I do not recognize the world or my fellow humans. Than a video of yours pops up and everything slows down around me. For a while it seems everything is normal again and my heart is happy and hopeful. Thank you for sharing your time and life with us

[@carolynspaulding6322]

Ivar is the most handsome little boy absolutely adorable. Love watching how he is growing and just love children.

[@JC-justchillin]

I am glad to hear you discuss refrigeration. Can't emphasize enough the challenge of keeping perishables when living off grid. Natural options are often too cold or too warm. I've been living offgrid most of 25 years and still no ideal scenario. I appreciate learning your ways to help me with mine. I wish I started when I was young and vibrant as you three but even as a 67 year old woman I look and feel younger. The simple, slow, manual life has a natural rythm that seems to encourage physical and mental well being. All the best to your beautiful family.

[@kathym6603]

Thank you for the info. I'm thinking we all have to find some natural rhythm outside the immersion into electronics and a false existence. Pray for the children.

[@joannadavis6716]

I am so impressed with the healthy diet you eat. And, what a happy young man you are raising. I am 78, too old for living off grid, but I respect your healthy way of life. I try to “eat clean” as we say in the USA, grow a lot of my own fruits and vegetables. I would have chickens too, but they are not allowed where I live. Your breakfast sounds so great a way to begin a busy day. Most important meal of the day. You will figure the cellar out. It just takes time and trial and error. God Bless all of you.

[@gabbym7560]

What a joyful little boy, an absolute delight. You have created a beautiful way to live and to bring up your child

[@Jojospyder]

This is an absolute masterpiece!!!! I have watched every video you guys have put out, they are all interesting in their own way. But this is a stand alone piece, It could be on TV and beat everything on the tv. People that have never watched you, can watch this and feel like they have known you for years. Y'all are so down to earth and I marvel at Tova, She is such a wonderful woman. As a woman in America myself. I can tell you that she is strong and at the same time very delicate and feminine. 🌻 I hope this next year you guys can move into the big house. But all good things come to those that wait. I have shared you to my Twitter and FB.

I find you are very honest and modest. Matthias has a lot of skills for working wood but he doesn't hesitate to say his doubts. Both of us look as agreed with this life and nature and Yvar seems a child very stable. Let's go as you feel!

You are such a great editor/Cutter, Matthias, so well done in the end, when you were switching from your workspace at the Laptop right into the video from the drone 👍🙂. You all are such a great family together,, with Tova, Ivar and with all your sheep, chickens, Malva and the cats. Never let that go.💖

[@joyceschwaller1]

What a precious little boy and thank you for sharing your day with us.

[@dannyreed2887]

Ivar has inherited your gentle spirit. I would be hard pressed to present a Video Log of Peace. Mathias, you are so skilled at cinematography. Tova, you are a supportive mother and wife. I know so many would offer advice but you are well equipped with experience of what works and what does not work. I live in similar climate as Sweden in the United States so the dying of the Sun comes earlier each day and the festival of light is welcome. Know that you are not alone with your little family and I deeply appreciate all that you do I love you all, your friend Dan in the Americas...

[@maryanngibbs6963]

It was so nice to spend the day together it didnt even feel like an hour. It was so relaxing watching you guys do your chores and how precious little Ivar when you went to wake him up I have heard that in Scandinavian countries they leave the babies in buggies wrapped up outside to give them fresh air but also help them get accustomed to the temperatures so it was interesting to see you do that as well.

[@unkiesacredspirit4938]

Sweden is a beautiful place,one of my favorite places to visit. My husbsn6is finnish and we now live in the States. I am Native indigenous ,we get away into the village to help family growing up we had a similar lifestyle. It made the best memories. 💗.We had sheep and pigs,etc to sustain us. Now a days we have the consciences of coarse... one thing my family loves is the workmanship of my husband carpentry skills..he does beautiful work. We miss Finland and traveling to Sweden...I will definitely pass on this video. Thank you for sharing.

[@jamestroy9625]

I would like to thank you and your family for taking us along, it has been very enjoyable. So many ways of life and family living and I believe this is the best way. Children grow to learn responsibility and respect. I love how you talk to each other, low and respectful. The nap outside I have heard of , sounds healthy, something that would be dangerous in a city. I have enjoyed watching you and your family so much I missed my milk and cookies time at 2:00am may god bless you and your family and keep you all safe.

Awww Ivar is at the stage where he talks and talks and talks 💜 I remember the nap stage and when we transitioned away from the daily nap and into an earlier bedtime. It can be a struggle but it sounds like he's signaling to y'all that his little body is readu to make some changes. Thank you both for sharing a tidbit of your daily lives with us 💜

[@susanne4028]

I am sure there is quite some some hardship and a lot of work in this kind of life....but there is something really beautiful and and happy about such a simple life too....without many possessions and hastle with lots of people. There is freedom and quietness behind it too. I wish this family all the best on their journey.

The "collision" between....what I call "stylized medieval peace".....and modern technology(the laptop) in the opening is wonderful. Reminds me of a Star Trek : Next Gen episode where Picard went back to Earth to visit his brother, and you see his space shuttle landing amid vineyards. For me, such a "melding" of cultures would be magical.

I still remember the naps in the pram outside,all babies had a nap in the garden(1959) I noticed how well you wrapped him,as you wrapped him up my heart swelled,I remember feeling very cold,maybe not so well wrapped in those days.

[@pattyhansen7563]

This used to be a common practice in the U.S., too, but for some reason parents got weird about it & it went away. People used to 'walk' their babies in all kinds of weather, too, but not anymore. Parents are hyper vigilant & want the cushiest existence, but it has not lead to more resilient children. My kids played outside in all kinds of weather & I would take them for walks on cold days, bundled up. They napped outside (not really during the winter, because they don't sell that kind of gear in the US to make sure they really are warm & it gets about 20 below zero Fahrenheit where i live) and played in the rain. They were NEVER sick. I am glad to see that some countries' parents have not lost their minds in this regard. I think it is very healthy for kids to live like Ivar! Wish more parents would do that here.

I absolutely loved that you incorporated food into this!!! Thank you so much for showing the way you eat and prepare food. It gives inspiration to others. Random question, how often do you eat potatoes? I can see you don’t do grains. Also that pizza looked amazing. I wish I could have a recipe book from you guys haha Thanks for an amazing video and hope you all stay warm! It looks very cold. 🥶

We very much enjoy eating potatoes. Baked in the oven, boiled, mashed... But we try to keep them as a side dish and a treat. We feel best when not eating too much carbs and plants with potentially harmfull anti-nutrients. We do eat some grains from time to time, but very little.

I love the sauna. Outdoor bathroom would be very cold but I guess you get used to it. Very simple but very healthy life you are living. Kudos to you all. 😊

Me agrada ver gente nature, como nosotros...encantada de conoceros. Un gran estilo de vida,.. seres compartiendo con la madre naturaleza🍂💚

Tova & Mathias Watching your videos is an experience that calms the chatter in our minds. I can unwind after a difficult day at work where I am in constant conflict with time constraints, complaints, employees and management. I look forward to escaping into your world and have begun my own private journey as well by paying off debt and building out a shuttle bus for wild camping. Soon I will find a piece of land where I can build my off-grid homestead. Stay warm and keep making those delightful dishes!!!! The pizza was inspiring!!! Kimberly

I actually have been following you since Tova's video and have been hooked ever since. Living in South Africa, I cannot immagine your kind of cold in winter. (Ours rarely go below 0*C and to me thats cold enough, but our summers are mostly over 27*C) Your way of living, your genuine care for the land and your animals and the way you raise your son is fascinating and awe inspiring. I hope this video takes off too.
