I've heard I said, and I believe it's true, that whatever gave us joy as children is our true life purpose. 🥰

This is why it is important to let kids play in the dirt, play with their hands, let them get dirty! I bet, anyone who would try doing something like this- it would wipe away their depression! So natural and peaceful compared to our busy, noisy, high tech world! Whenever I get involved in nature outside I feel “normal” again. I would love to do this! My childhood friend and I were always outside adventuring, we often say how thankful to God we had a childhood & did not have phones and such. We miss those days so much. Thank you for sharing! Must work up a mighty appetite when working like so, making any meal even tastier with hard work done. I like reading people’s comments and stories too.

I remember when our grandparents build houses out of straw and mud, and not having to work 40 years+ to afford a small apartment...now these type of houses are regarded as old fashioned or "poor". Somehow, at some point, someone made us think that we are stupid and cannot build a house, and therefore we must get loans from the banks, work a misserable job all our lives, and miss out all our youth so we can afford a home. We fucked up , and we must go back ! Thank you for all your inspiring work sir !

Wattle and daub,is a tradional building method in the u.k. many houses are still standing after hundreds of years, they were made from a mixture of animal dung ,soil, horse hair or chopped straw,mixed with water, built on a stone foundation, to raise it from ground level. It was always thatched with Reed or straw, wide enough to jut out far enough to protect the walls from running rain water, this building wouldn't survive very long in a wet climate like ours.

How blessed you are to have soil with such a high clay content! Those walls and roof must have very high “R Values!” Curious on the chimney… is it going to open into a fireplace?

@@timbushell8640 I would disagree, he has a pretty decent setup with the structure being essentially "pinned" together with wooden dowels. He also sealed it up with an old and effective method using cob (mixture of clay and plant fibers) which is really good with providing insulation and structure. However after an earthquake or storm, it may be likely that there will be some damage which would be relatively easy to repair. My only possible concern is flooding, given that the floor had been escavated.

Just if he would take the bark of the wood sticks and let the wood dry a bit and burn them a bit, the house would last longer... But now the wood will get rotten especially where it touches the ground and all of them will get a lot of termites soon. It can last 4~5years the most

Watching something like this come together is really cool! However, if you are considering building something like this than understand it takes months and months and months to complete a project like this. Maybe even a year or so. The more elaborate you get the longer it takes. There’s no way a shelter like this could be built in just a few months unless you have a lot of people helping you.

This shelter I built alone last year, currently I just modified it to be able to enjoy the daylight and see the nature. It is important to know that I am on a private property and I take the time to do simple things as I like!

Way back in about 1953-1955, I used to build "playhouses" in our garden. I did not have the wood to build a real playhouse so I dug out a hole in the ground and roofed it with whatever material I had, including in one case two large wood garage doors. My dad had made a room out of our double garage and saved the doors for some future project. I made a frame and laid the doors over this and then covered these with some of the dirt I had dug out for my play house. I usually went down about 5 feet or so and maybe 10 by 15 feet in room size. Yeah, I had a lot of dirt. Anyway, I would build a fireplace so I could cook something like hot dogs while I was in my room. My next-door neighbor - best friend - would come over and we would play games, play with our toy soldiers, and so on. It was so cool. The biggest problem would be it would rain and the play house would fill up with water, so we would have to do the whole thing over again. We had no way to protect against the water. I suppose we really did not mind as it gave us a reason to do the whole thing over again. Your shelter is what we really wanted all along. Outstanding.
