Get to know him better - Nik Rijavec

After watching the first episode of the new series that @Nik Rijavec is producing on KZread I ask him if I can come to his place and help him. A few weeks later I was there and had the best time. As Nik I also love to make videos, so one day I said I would like to make a video about him. He agreed even if he didn't know how will I picture him in the video. Actually, in the first moment, I also didn't have any idea.
I hope Nik likes the video and anybody else that watch it find out something more about this great person.

    I’ve been following Nik since he started his log cabin build, Nik is most inspiring craftsman I’ve ever seen! Anyone that knows him well must be very lucky to have him for a friend! He seems so real and happy with life and family.

    The peeling of the logs is something to behold. When I first saw one of the peeling videos I instantly subscribed to Nik's channel. It's not aggressive, toiling movements. It's paced, deliberate movement, easily recognizable to someone who has done manual work for a long length of time. This is really something to respect because it represents an internal discipline that's contagious. I see a man slowly working toward a vision with patience and faith and that is a rarity to find. I'm really glad the peeling movement was mentioned in this video.

    Leo, Thanks for bringing us more Nik, and nice to 'meet' you too.😊 A couple of comments related to what you discussed; Everyone knows people who have an aura or a vibe they relate to, and I think Nik's type/style relates to a broad spectrum of people. I think honesty and trustworthiness are the perception for me, whether its down-to-earth, or 'getting real' i would probably trust him in serious situations guite easily, and I would care for his well being or safety. I've never met Nik,but I've seen all his published content, and even so, I probably know very little about him and yet I feel like we are friends, and all that can be, and is, true at the same time. A little odd maybe but cool too. Thanks again, good fortune in all that you do. Jim 🇨🇦

    I have been following Nik on his KZread Channels and I am greatly inspired by his "vibrations". I do not know what to call it, but he exudes something that makes me feel calm when I watch him work and listen to him speak. I like his outlook on life and meeting challenges head on and with purpose, dedication and calmness. Thank you for sharing your video about Nik. It was very good and I enjoyed it.

    WOW, thanks for this Leo! I have been watching his cabin build and I could tell there was something about him that I liked, but after hearing this, it is clear to me now why I connected with him. Nature is a deep part of all of us - even the ones lost in the cities, but to follow your dreams where ever you are is the right path.

Such an amazing genial giant! Thanks for sharing your world with all of us! Best wishes to you in all you do! God bless!

Great Video (too short! 😳🤣😂🤨) Leo, but finally some info on that Guy called Nik that it's really tough finding any real or usable info to learn about who he is, what he is or why he does what he does and likes it so much. Cool👍🏻 Greetings from Bavaria, Germany. Hope for more to come as it seems, you would be able to get more details on that "subject" called Nik 😉😇

Im greatfull for the videos he has shared with us, i've received a lot of inspiration and knowledge. One day im building a cabin, different from his. It'll be my own. I wish i could give mr. Rijavek a gift, but i dont know what to give, as i would never give anything useless/pointless.

    What I know about Nik I have learned from watching his vids. It is clear to me that he does not fit into any stereotypical category and that he is uniquely talented. One of the many things that sets him apart is his determination to put his creativity into action and do it in such a sharing way. Suffice it to say, this is Nik's way.

    Regarding the Beauty Dear Nik, You started an exciting journey of discovering the beauty. This, I can assure you, is joyful a lifelong, meaningful and satisfying endeavor that can continue, if we choose to, even after if we are not anymore around. It is very personal, but it is even more delightful and rewarding to share it with others which can understand you. Can you imagine, we are the only live beings on this planet which can recognize, wonder, and admire the beauty of this creation. The Beauty is not a devised by man ideology, religion, or whim. It is objectively existing to let us recognize behind it the Creator of everything, to commune, be in harmony, and peace with Him. He gave us as a gift a spark of beauty inside us and it is up to us to keep and make it brighter. One great writer realized the most important truth, saying: “Beauty will save the world!” And indeed, around 2000 years ago the Beauty came to this world in a form of the only perfect Man, to dwell among us for a short time. He even, at some point, was a carpenter, but He was not just a carpenter. The Beauty has three essential attributes: faith, hope, and love. It is up to us to accept and develop these attributes in the spark given us. But we are given also the free choice to cherish or to quench the spark. The world would be a much better place if more people choose to develop the gift of light given them. Unfortunately, most of the people still reject the Beauty as they did 2000 ago. Enjoy on your journey to the Beauty here and beyond.
