Living in a rural cottage | My daily life

    Hey Nikky. I love following your videos and learning about how you live. I find it quite inspirational because I would love to live the way you do. I'm also an outdoors kinda person, but I live in the UK and go a regular job....so you are my connection to that way of living. I really think you're a great person too, and I share alot of your approach and values. Great to connect with you! ❤❤❤

    Hey, thank you for your comment! I'm so happy to read this, it really motivates me. It means so much to hear I'm your connection to this way of living and I hope I can give you some more inspiration. You never know what's going to happen or where you might be in a few years. Thank you so much for your kind words, I try to just be myself and show a little bit of my life and the way I look at things and it means a lot you think I'm a great person. I try my best, every day. Great to connect with you too, and see you next week! ❤️

    Hi 😊 It was lovely to see a day in your life. Our weather is very similar . The weather can change within a blink of an eye and it really does determine what you can do. Also keeps it interesting. You can make plans but they do change all the time. daily even and however frustrating that can be , there is something nice about it. I've lived in the city when I was studying in London UK and I enjoyed my time there but it didn't feel like home the way it does in the forests and countryside. Lovely to see the ducks and chicks. I wonder what you will use your pottery for? Thank you for sharing your day. Really enjoyed. I wish for you a wonderful week end. 🏚🐶🦆🐤🐔🍞🪵🌳💚

    Thank you! The weather is really crazy this year, but you are right, it does keep thing interesting, always! And yes, you understand the feeling. I also enjoyed the city, but it will never really feel like home. I think some people just don't really belong there. I'm happy you enjoyed the video! I'm not sure about the pottery yet, I think I will just use them for flowers, but I'm still waiting to see the final product, because they needed to go in the kiln first. Thank you very much! I wish you a wonderful week end and see you next week! ❤️

    Hi Nikky! Another great video. I love how much you love your life here, and It comes through the screen to us.🙂I wouldn't want to leave my homestead either. You're precious animals are so beautiful. I have a couple questions if I may ask. How far are you from town? What is the economy like in the netherlands? I ( Here in the states , its VERY BAD) prices are out of control. Gas prices, and the highest they have ever been. Never before have I seen it like this. You were made to be a homesteader. I would love it, but I don't know about the cold winter! I can't wait to see summer videos from you. The bread and sandwich, looked AMAZING. I would love someday if you took us on a drive through of all the rural areas. that would be fun to see. Take care, and see you next week! ♥

    Thank you! ❤️ You can ask me anything! I'm very close to a small farmers town, the bigger city's are a bit farther away. The economy is also not great right now, prices are getting a little crazy. For grocery's, but also for gas and electricity. I really love this live, I'm happy it shows! I also love the cold winters, even when its hard work. Thank you, the bread tasted great! That's actually a very good idea for a video, I will write it down! Thank you so much, and see you Sunday! ❤️

    Hi Nikki, somehow I landed on your video while scrolling and I decided to check it out. Usually I’m watching some of the stuff going on in the world but I know I should watch something more conducive to sleeping. I live in a very small town about an hour from Dallas, Texas in the United States. Your video is a welcome break for me. I’m interested in learning more about your lifestyle so will be checking out more of your videos.
