Ollie and a friend are visiting, and it's the first time this year we eat outside again. We take a walk around the neigbourhood. I'm tapping birch sap, make a new fire pit, finish the inside window frames, pick up fences and fix the outdoor kitchen.

The gorgeous new chair, like the ornate outdoor faucet, the new mirror above the basin, the hardware for the arched doorway, really models Martijn's aesthetic for the cabin. Martijn is like his grandfather, a creative drive informed by an eye for beauty. Martijn's grandfather built whole working steam engines from scratch. Martijn is building a beautiful life from the scratch of Val Pellice. The gift to us is that we get to watch!

Watching you and "the guys"on your walk around the neighborhood. and gathering in your cabin for food. The feeling of peace began to return some hope to my soul. Thank you Martijn.

I think in times of need you can count on both man. Johannes is a more experienced man living in the mountains being Austrian. So i think it is wise for Mathijs and Ollie to listen to him when he explains things and also living longer in Italy and in that area so he is a good resource for help and info.
