It’s a really inspiration. Congratulations.

Wow, i randomly found this, what a gem!

Hey Nik, just what I know of you you were a lot like me building with your hands. I built cabinets for my dad and ran his shop 6 years and went on my on and started my cabinet shop built houses too all by myself and built my house in 3 renovations all by my self and worked every day in cabinets built my house and other houses on my off time from day light to dark. And now Iam a old man broke down and disabled and still do what I can and that’s not much. You do a great job at your work and take pains in your work. I live in the U.S.A. Just outside of Chattanooga Tennessee. Keep up the great work and I’ll keep watching, you take care of yourself and stay in good health I hope for you

Hello Nick I have really enjoyed watching you, your family, and friends building your and their beautiful wooden houses. We have just recently started to watching your videos and have seen them all. My husband and have always wanted to build a wooden home after we retired but he has since been diagnosed with Leukemia so we’ve put that on hold. We actually have a trip planned in 2023 to Slovenia and looking forward to seeing your beautiful country. Thanks again for sharing your life with us.

Leo, Greetings from the Midwest USA. I want to thank you for doing this video. We have a group of friends and family that have watched Nik from the start. Your interview brought a better insight into Nik's outlook on life. Nik has done a masterful job of showing his passion for excellence and the patience to continue to push onward. His comment about YT creators getting caught up in the "fake" reality of YT is so true. You brought things out in your interview In a way that only a friend could do. Nik is a very humble private person, but has not been driven by the pressure of YT that most creators get caught up in. People watch Nik's channel for many different reasons. I believe many of us watch because Nik he has a vision , passion and a drive to use his mind and hands to accomplish his goals. I believe his videos demonstrate attributes that only a small number of people in this world have. Many of us like to dream about creating and building projects. We have no problem dreaming up projects, but getting to the next stage is where most fail. Nik has shown the reality of accomplishment. You interview was done in a tasteful manner, giving us a little better look at the "inner Nik". I commend Nik for keeping many aspects of his like private and your interview respected that.

Compliments are waste of time. Nik likes to talk about what he's doing not what he is...love it.Ni

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 luck in all that you do. Jim 🇨🇦

Thank You Nik, and Leo. This is the best thing I've ever seen on the internet, from someone I don't know, but really like.

Адскую работу проделал.Мир его дому.

Nik, I like that you share your life as it unfolds, your work, your family, your love of nature. And not acting out just for more you tube hits. Alfred.

Hard to believe I started watching since the beginning, over 2 years. Such an awesome journey. It will be interesting to see how they decorate and if they install solar, gardens etc. My dream homestead, except for that hill icy drive in winter.

Thank you for your interview with Nik. You did a very good job and it helps me to understand my admiration of Nik.

im so glad this popped up, thank you for taking the time to give us this casual look at Niks life! i have so much respect for the work and ideals Nik has shown us and i appreciate the new perspective! Love from Bc canada :D

Thanks for the interview - a nice way to learn a bit more about what drives Nic.

What a terrific video. Thank you for sharing Leo. Much appreciation and respect from Alaska. Blessings.

Nic is one with nature he is a holy man

Awesome and so rewarding to hear Nix share parts of himself and his other lives apart from the log house. So look forward to his videos and whenever they pop up. He is like a strong rock steady and secure and i know God willing he'll be back, so i wait. Thank you and Nik for sharing

Well done GOD BLESS you both, I see him as a man of integrity, compassion and perseverance. Great work Nick.

You are awesome! Thank you so much for all your videos! ♥️

Nik, the way I started viewing and perceiving your videos, is that it is you finding an outlet to express yourself in something you were already doing. The cabin, and the documenting of it on YT, it is your song. It is your painting, it is your sculpture, and all great art and those who do it, reaches out to others and inspires them to do and create. You are right where you are supposed to be. I like the idea of the sauna and I also hope that you're considering doing all of the plumbing and electrical on videos, as well as the full furnishing. As a viewer we start envisioning that open space and wonder HOW can those things be done and what might it look like, and then I know you will just surprise us with something we never thought of and inspire us to think outside the box even more.

@@LeoGamboc Maybe I overstepped, but I was kind of hoping you might share it with him since he gets so many comments to fish through. Watching the interview with him, I could see his frustration sometimes with others' perceptions of him and then his inner struggle and always trying to keep himself in check. Wanted him to know, there are plenty of us out here that understand and don't presume to know more than we are shown.

Can't think of a better channel than his. Love every time I see a new one to watch.

I’m so impressed of the work you’ve done nikbuilding a Log cabin by yourself sometimes you have help from family and friends the log house is beautiful, the endurances and you’re will is so driven to fulfill and succeed of the building for yourself you are a very carriagious person thank you all man’s out there should watch you’re videos and lean from it admired you’re work and carriage… God Bless

Great format. This idea to build an igloo to protect the mics from the wind is really something.

Thank you Leo, this was great. At the 20 min mark I thought of the word "Perfectionist".

Nik is the best KZread guy. He keeps me locked into what he is doing. I love it.

Nik and Leo great interview God bless you all. Kathie from Louisiana 🇺🇸

Great interview Leo, Nik is a very remarkable man, pretty much a genius when it comes to how to do things. The way he single handedly constructed that log cabin was just brilliant. I would love to meet him and his family one day but that's not likely as I am in Pennsylvania USA. If you are reading this Nik, great job buddy, and keep the videos coming.

Very well said both of you! Thank you

Great idea and interview. Thanks to both of you.

Thanks for sharing your life and time with the world

you have a great humble way about u Your parents brought you up well God bless

When I was young, I wanted to use lumber.

I have been following since the beginning. Brilliant work Nik. Love your skills. I wish I was young again and I could use your work as inspiration to do something similar but completely different I am in New Zealand, in the north where there is no snow but beautiful beaches and native bush And LOTS of trees Always look forward to your videos

Nik, you amaze me! You are a very devoted worker and very family oriented, whatever people criticize you on is not reverent. This property is yours along with gods creation. What you do with it is only your business. Some people get jealous of you because you are so dedicated to your dreams in your life and you include your family as well. May god bless you and May he walk with you and your family. Thank god for your blessings and your family. Enjoy what you have accomplished. In Christ …

I have watched them all I get great satisfaction just to watch all of your videos you are wat all men should aspire to be a true man

Hey Nik, what you have created may not be accurate, but I think it's amazing and beautiful. You have inspired a lot of people, and have created a fantastic living space, and a wonderful life. Congratulations to you!

Very simple and humble person….

He can see in his mind eye not every can see in their mind nic has a gift to see in him Mind and make it happen

Nik must be just as passionate about making videos as he is about building a life for his family in the way has envisioned in his mind. Following a passion is difficult as soon as it becomes a job. Doing it for views is a job, doing for any reason or on any schedule that doesn't suit the passion is a job. His humble attitude towards life shows he isn't doing a job. I respect him for this.

Great interview

When Nic hoisted that lift in the air and made it work, I was hooked on his channel. I thought he invented that, but he referenced a book in a later video. But here, I think he said he came up with the idea of the lift himself? If that's the case, there should be some kinda award for ingenuity. Even though I've watched countless hours of Nic working on the Log House, I don't pretend to know him. But I'm inspired by him and admire his humility, craftsmanship and the wholesome lifestyle he displays on his channel. His nature channel has inspired me to try and capture the beauty of my surroundings here in the Pacific Northwest. Inspiring people to be better, isn't a bad thing where I come from. But we're all bent here. Not broken! ·Be well·

The idea for the lift was mine, book has nothing to do with the lift, it's only about log scribing, that I used later when building the cabin walls. Thank you for your words!

@@nikrijavec47 Did you make a little model of it and work it out on a small scale first (Kris Harbour) , or did you just put it up, thinking it should work? When I watched you working with it, it made since but I had never seen anything like it. In my country we would call that "Fkin Clever"! Thank you Nic, for your inspiration, vision and kindness. Be well, from Oregon.

He is the real deal making use of what we all have but some of us never using our grey matter the brain

I love your channel.

Butterfly are good spirits so the sense your good Spirit that’s why the are attracted to you

At first I had to laugh at seeing two nice people sitting in the snow, both humble, quiet, silent at times, and what I heard from Nick's words was a deep personality... In general, a lot of people judge others, that's what Nick doesn't like about the "internet culture"... Look at me, see how tall/rich/smart I am and all that... I mean, Nick is great at what he does, at what he shows us... In other words, he doesn't need to talk much, his accomplishment speaks for itself... Caring worker, caring father, caring lover... Sometimes he shows me the child that he is in his inner part...He has a very endearing personality. Sometimes, seeing the task he has undertaken, I would feel like helping him, because I also built my house but in the city!!! Like him, I am passionate about construction, woodworking, nature, and I like to see nature as his eyes see it... Long life Nick !!! Keep going this path of your life, I feel it the best !!! A friendly hi from France (Alsace) !
