I'm also so happy that you will continue. In time it will get easier to record and edit. The work will go faster and when it does consider Patreon, I think many KZreadrs earn more there than here, I remember how happy I was when I got 10 and 100 subscribers and I never dreamed of having a channel that is so big today. My channel started to grow when KZread suddenly suggested a video that I uploaded in July 2022 and now it has 8,3 million views. With that traffic, I got more subscribers (today 108,000) and because of that, I got many members on the Patreon (page today 493). My advice is just to keep going, sooner or later you will benefit more from KZread's algorithms. ❤💜❤

I rearly comment on youtube but you two are so presious. Love that you can be vulnerable, like real persons we can feel. Hope you will be able to keep that along the way. (Although internet can be harsh) Take care.

Menudo cumplido. Mil gracias!! De verdad ❤

Thank for this information. I believe I discovered your channel in that second wave of subscribers. I think you were suggested because I subscribe to several homesteaders. I stuck around because I enjoy the energy and passion you both have for your projects and for each other. I can tell some weeks when you are struggling - it tugs at my heart and I send you comforting energy when I see that. I enjoy that each of you contribute your special talents, crafting, cooking, architecture - it is real, inspiring and refreshing. Keep up the good work and congrats on your success this far.

You are great it gives us older folk pleasure to watch you do your thing. ❤Contentment comes more often than happiness in most lives. Happiness is like the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow 🌈 it comes from time to time. I like to Welcome it and celebrate 🎉🎉🎉when it comes.😂😂😂

I'm glad you are going to continue making KZread videos. I really enjoy your channel.

Your video quality and narrative are excellent! The algorithm likes your farm renovation video. Well done and keep up the good work!

You give such an honest and realistic look at being a content creator. As a fairly new subscriber, I have seen how much you have grown in the how in a relatively short time. You suddenly showed up on my feed in December 2023. I figured you did because I have been following another couple living in Spain on a piece of land that had been abandoned. Regardless of how I came, I am interested to stay. Thank you.

Hola chicos!! Me encanta vuestro contenido,he empezado hace poco a ver los vídeos de las cabañas de piedra ,me gustan los paisajes,las reformas de las casas y sobretodo las personas que me transmiten buenas energías como vosotros.Saludos desde Sevilla 💚

I found you a few months ago, probably because I follow Living the Skye Life about a young couple who moved to a cottage on the Scottish island. They started small but suddenly it took off. I'm sure your channel will do just the same. I love your videos and thank you for making them so enjoyable to watch.

Habeis mejorado mucho en cuanto a tecnica y naturalidad, lo que nos gusta mucho es que igual contais lo bueno como lo malo de cada dia y eso crea expectacion . Seguid asi.

Pratim nekoliko youtube kanala i vi ste mi jedni od dražih jer ste tako ranjivo iskreni, nježni i brižljivi. Ne brinite se za budućnost, ljudi ce prepoznati vas trud i zanimljive videe. Nervirala sam se gledajući Wernera kako se muči dok je krčio onu šumu oko vaših kućica a samo mu je trebala dobra motorna pila i vidim da ste je nabavili. Znam da treba mnogo ulaganja u opremu i strojeve kako bi mogli odrzavati vaš posjed a pogotovo za renoviranje vase kuće. Želim vam svako dobro i samo tako nastavite. Pozdrav iz Hrvatske !

I found your channel a couple of months ago and went back to watch many of your older videos. I watch a lot of big KZread vloggers in the homesteading/gardening sphere but I often prefer to watch people who have small, developing channels to see how they are growing. I have enjoyed your channel so far and looking forward to seeing how your future unfolds! It's just a shame the 'haters' can't just move on if they don't like what they see... 🤨 Good luck! I will be following along.

so glad you're going to keep going, i'm interested in the renovations of your cabins & the lifestyle you're choosing to live; i live in a country town renovating my own home & it's fascinating seeing those being done in other countries; i don't watch as many Americans or aussies as i do for Portugal. Italy & Sweden, i find the differences quite interesting. I hope you keep it real as well, plenty make mistakes on camera, just ignore the haters or cruel comments, it's a recorded file of your journey & you are being generous by sharing it also take a break when you need to from vlogging, can't always be in the public eye plus you don't want to burn out thoroughly enjoy your content about the land & cabins thanx for sharing

Well! Thank the YT algorithm for putting you in my feed. So you are 11 months ahead of me - and I love your "pearls of wisdom". They are all so recognizable, relatable. I think for a lifestyle / vlog type channel like yours and mine, it can be difficult to find a target audience - but you are right - they are right out there, somewhere - waiting to be discovered. Travelling with my Campervan through Spain atm, so maybe I get to North Spain as well ! Greetz and 1 more subscriber !

Thanks so much for your you tube journey video especially the last scene which is so much like me filming me!!! I'm 1 year in and struggling big time to get 1000 subscribers. I feel i'm forced to post poorer quality vidoes every week just to try to get monitised. i'd rather make one great video per month. Every day i'm losing views that I worked hard for 366 days ago because the target moves forward. But I LOVE IT!!! I believe its my future and I'm just going to keep going.

KZread is hard, but it is great that you love it. You're doing amazing, both with the building of the cabin and documenting it! And we specially appreciate you including the little critters and how you care for them. You'll get there! Wishing you the best 💪

It would be interesting to hear how KZread actually works! It you can also give examples of what you make for a breakfast that is full of protein (Vegan). I went back to eating salmon and chicken because I was tired. I eat a lot of nuts which taste great but I tend to over do them. Love your channel.

We're not the best at breakfast because we both tend to be a bit lazier in the mornings 😅 But we have included a nice recipe in the next video, so make sure to check it out!

Moving to north of Spain soon and also slowly been experimenting with the algorithmic gods of youtube, so your channel is right down my street! Started uploading less than a year ago (almost at 1000 subscribers) and can tell how much work you guys put in. You're great!

You guys are awesome

Hi Alejandra & Warner! This was a great video. I have 2 KZread channels for podcasts that I am a part of including one that I do about my husband’s parents who are from the Galicia region of Spain (that one is called Everyday Macaroni here on KZread if you are interested). We are just getting started on KZread and I find that all of your comments are exactly correct. It is difficult to record yourself, post consistently and deal with negative comments (we still haven’t had that many comments yet). You are especially right about the importance of storytelling in successful videos. I find myself struggling with every aspect of the process but it is so fun that I keep posting anyway, even when I make mistakes (and I still make plenty). I also agree that creating videos that are true to your identity as a content creator is key to attracting your tribe. I’m watching your subscriber numbers grow and I’m confident you will reach your 10k goal quickly. I enjoy your content but the best thing about your channel is the two of you and your authenticity. Keep at it. I’m rooting for you and you are on your way! 💗

In my experience talking to a camera is difficult for everyone, especially at the beginning. It just feels so strange and it’s difficult to not get in your head about what you’re saying etc. But the only way to get over it is practice. One thing that also helps me is to not look at the screen. I know that a lot of people have the tendency to look at themselves, but if I do that I get more nervous. Hope that helps!

American people should learn much more of their European neighbors from real European people than from biased and corrupt news media. Hope more channels come along like yours!

You are a very nice couple, and I like your video's. I hope that you don't spend to many years damaging your precious bodies' and minds by not eating your natural diet of, meat eggs fish cheese liver and animal fat, My daughter almost died because of the VEGAN CULT god bless you
