Thank you Raya& Louis, these longer videos are so fun. Been watching Louis for over a decade, and this is one of the best eras yet. Hope the family has a beautiful spring
Thanks to Louis for bringing us a glimpse of a good life in Costa Rica! Don’t forget to rest! What a beautiful baby boy! Take care.
See you on patreon! 10 yrs viewing, it's about time 😂 this series is among your best!!

Thank you for the support! It really means the world ❤️
Neo’s rash and fever could be related to his teething ❤

Came here to say exactly this. Very classic case of Roseola.

That’s what I thought as soon as she mentioned fever earlier than a rash. I have 5 kids .
Stop pulling all nighters...you are getting wiser...keep to yourselves for a few days. This is your dream world. Dont under value SLEEP. LIFE goes on, your dreams are ☀️❤️keep living.🌱🙏 Louis for the jungle video.🤗
Love from Montréal Canada 🇨🇦 My grandfather whose no longer with us bought property in Costa Rica 20 years ago and spent his entire retirement there. I grew up visiting him there and as we got older my aunts (his daughters) bought property there as well. This week my mom (his 3rd and youngest daughter), bought a property there. My grandfather passed in 2017 of a stroke in Costa Rica. And our whole family has slowly nourished the seed he planted there. My aunts and grandma now spend half the year there. I’ve visited 4 times (I’m 21 and the youngest of my entire big family). Last time I went I got Pura Vida tattooed in my grandfathers handwriting. It’s impossible to explain the vibes of Costa Rica and the feeling it leaves you with but I love to see anyone embrace it as you both have!! I plan to do the same and one day spend my life there. Thank you for sharing this amazing journey!!
Sounds like Roseola. Kids get it often. It starts with a high fever and maybe diarrhea no other symptoms. Then the fever breaks and they develop little red bumps as a rash. There isn’t anything to do about it but keep him hydrated and out of the sun for a week.

And away from festivals.
37:00 You could paint it green, then plant passionfruit around it. The vines are so lush and beautiful almost year round, the flowers are beautiful, with the added benefit of delicious fruit. It grows quickly, spreads a long way, and can be planted in large pots (so you wouldn’t necessarily need to put in a garden bed if you don’t want to). Or, as another option, see if there’s any local artists willing to paint a mural across it. That could also be beautiful 😊

I love passionfruit flowers! Gorgeous!
To be honest I never noticed the color. Just the dedication and happiness on Louis face on another step in getting to his final goal for the family. Neo is a gem. Great vlog Raya and Louis.
That orange cat is so cute, what a beautiful place. Have fun!!
Shout out to Louis thank you for taking us into your life. This video is amazing and you keep inspiring us .
Louis !! My Word !! To be the Editor is quite a job , its really hard to take things out and to make a smooth transition !! Hats off and major applause for your talent Sir !!!!
Eamon and Louis are basically Twins at this point. They love building and their projects!
Raya has such a good eye for planning and design, and I know that between the two of you, your property will turn out great!!
I would recommend sitting the container on blocks or piers. The floors are usually oak so that may help you prevent any moisture or insect damage. Can’t wait to see what you do with your land, being in natural resource management I love your idea of biophilic design.

I really hope they do that especially after what happened in the bus under the cabinet 😂
Thank you Louie for such wonderful editing. Momma you are doing amazing, kids are gonna be kids. Heat rashes unfortunately are part of it in hot climate. But they are more resilient than you think. Blessings
Louis, you're very much appreciated for all you do. Just make sure to get some rest. ❤❤❤❤❤. I hope Neo is feeling better. His little eyes looked so weak. Poor baby. When babies are not feeling well, they just want and need mommy. If there's a product sold there called Aveeno, you should try it for Neo. It's an oatmeal bath he can soak in that's really good for rashes and helps with healing.
Another beautiful video. Thank you to both of you for sharing your lives with us. And thank you, Louis, for your excellent editing!
There’s no better sound than a baby’s giggle! Thanks for sharing🥰
Louie’s smile is everything when Raya is talking about his saving of everything is so cute. Thanks for sharing your lives with us💐🤗
I have been loving this series. Having raised three children myself I know how tough teething can be on little ones. You are doing an amazing job and it is reflected in how happy Neo is most of the time.
Neos laugh such a joy to hear! Containers are so versatile. Just note that if you are storing items in them you need to consider air flow (here in Australia we call them whirlybirds) as they can become ovens and in your climate you could end up with mold situation. I love the idea of growing passion fruit around it. Keep delivering great videos Louis.
Thank you Louis! Keep an eye on the rash. Measles is on the rise again. Hope he has all his boosters.❤❤❤
Sweet little Neo’s rash could be because of teething 🥰🇨🇦!
Loving the honesty of when it is hard. Doing good momma!
Louis you’re killing it with editing. Your vlogs lift my spirits and have gotten me through this cold dark winter. Thank you both for sharing your beautiful life! 🎉
You can cover the container with wood walls to make it look like a palapa. Or put bamboo around it. You could grow vines on it, fruit or vegetables. So many ways to camouflage it. Have an artist friend use it as a palate and paint it to blend with the natural habitat or something fun! Can't wait to see what you do with it!!
I appreciate the videos you put out. They are really well produced. I also like the extended length of them❤ it gives me a good glimpse into what's happening in your world. Good for you for starting patreon crowdfunding
Love watching Neo and all he is starting to do! My youngest grandson is about the same age, it is so much fun! Enjoy life always!
I am absolutely living for these Costa Rica vlogs, the nature and natural living you guys do. Love everything about it!
You guys are amazing parents, firstly. Love your adventures. You can turn the one side of the counter into a hanging garden. Paint it green, hang wood panels, and plant climbing vine vegetables

Or also addd a vertical garden :)
Thanks Louie for all the great editing on your incredible vlogs! So glad Neo was feeling better! ❤❤❤
Another vlogger was just saying how important it is to grow your own food and teach children where the food comes from. So many city children don’t have the opportunity to experience planting, nurturing the food until harvest. It is a big advantage to having freedom to get out of the city and enjoy country life or island life
Regarding the container: How about painting it black and fitting some windows framed with brown wooden frames? I think that would make the container an eye catcher. Also it would realy go well with all the green arround your lot.
I am SO EXCITED to be a Patreon member!! Thank you for creating it! Patreon is so much fun❤❤❤
I think it can be really great eventually. To start definitely paint it a green color. I love the idea of leaning a trellis and gardening around it. I wouldn’t even worry about covering it with bamboo. Just landscaping around it with short and tall plants. Later on you can add windows and a mural.
Love you all. Thank you Louis for all the extra editing time. You all look wonderful!❤
Is there anything sweeter than a baby's laughter!?
Painting the outside green and the inside white will help it to disappear and make the inside light and bright. Most people I've seen spray it.
the vibe in these vlogs is just so awesome! i'm really loving it and it really motivates me and makes me happy. also Neo is just the cutest and seeing you guys with him is so beautiful!
I love you guys. You're perspective is great! But just remember one thing please. Where you thrive, Neo thrives. The change in ALL of you has been BEAUTIFUL since your return.❤❤❤ Take it from an old father of 4.
As my clientele rises , i will most definitely beca patrion and support you on your lovely and amazing journey !! Im completely living via you three !!
14:14 it looked like Neo was raising his hand to talk😭😭😭 so cute
I enjoy your videos. Great editing job Louis! My suggestion to help beautify the shipping container is to paint some windows on it and attach shutters beside the painted windows. This would soften the boxee look and add charm! :)
I've always been impressed with the editing of your videos, but never mentioned it. Great job, Louie...and thank you! You both are giving Neo the best life!
Love these long form videos! Thank you for letting us travel with you!
Oh man…. Neo is adorable. When he was laughing, he stopped and looked at the camera just as I laughed. It was as if he was saying to me “what are YOU laughing at”. ❤❤
I’m loving the longer videos. Seeing you spend time planning where things are going on your land is exiting for what’s going to come. I’m sure the home you build there will be wonderful. You’ve got an amazing spot for it. Also plenty of people build houses out of shipping containers and make them look like proper homes so there is always the option to clad your workshop so that it looks like a building rather than a metal box.
It looks like Neo has sensitive baby skin. He is a sweetheart
29:30 That's the sweetest thing; and you can see his wee little teeth :)
I actually love the container. People have done a lot of cool things and even turn those into homes. Lots of potential
I also been watching you both for 10 years. Love these vlogs. Neo is awesome. You are doing wonderful job as parents. Teething is hard but lots of cold frozen items helps a lot. Things he can bite on to help push teeth thru. Lots of mothers around to help you, Louis doing great job editing and getting things done. You are a great team together. Just paint the container. Do some art work and plants will also help it be cooler. The sun will make it very hot. Looking forward to next video. Love the longer versions. You have so much to share.💖
Thank you louie for all the hard work on editing you are killing it !
Thanks for sharing the vlog - so sorry Neo isn't feeling well...teething issues with our children were the bane of my existence as a parent. It is so hard to see them in such pain. Hugs!
I really like watching Neo. He is so musical, the way he imitates rhythm and sounds. He is also really observant, like his parents. Thank you for sharing your family.
Thank you Louis! ❤ We appreciate your editing so much! I have been absolutely in love with these jungle diaries and love seeing you guys living and working in paradise. And I just can’t get over how cute Neo is. ❤❤❤
It is so nice to see PURA VIDA on your channel. Life is so glorious in paradise. I am in the raging heat area but I have a beach and nesting turtles🐢 just minutes away. It is all give and take in the jungle.
Thank you Louis for the amazing video edits!! Neo is such a cutie! Love from Kenya 🇰🇪
The best advice my doctor ever gave me for my children and my granddaughter teething... Find a set of keys you can have anywhere between 5 to 10 keys. Clean them really well, and then give them to the child. And it's literally the equivalent of tenderizing meat. So this way it takes the pressure off of the gums but it doesn't hurt the baby.. literally when I say teething was a breeze. Best thing ever.. You guys are doing absolutely amazing as parents and I love watching how happy and healthy he is
Have you seen photos of container houses? They look so cool and you could totally make that work on your property!
Thank you and props to Louis for your hard work that goes into editing! I’m always impressed by the dedication that goes into filming, editing, long hours wee into the night until morning, and then have even more time to be such a great dad and husband. You really are a GOAT 👏🏽 ❤
Raya,you are stunningly naturally beautiful inside and out!
I know I’ve said it at least twice before, but since Raya asked - I LOVE this weekly jungle diaries vlog! I really appreciate all of the work Louis puts in to editing a whole week, every week. I love, love, love it.
Guys.. if he doesn't like the car seat.. maybe it is hot? The material and harnesses get hot.. trick i lernt with my kids living in a country that gets really hot in summer 1) you need a cover for the seat eg towel and 2) use a spray bottle with drinking water and spray the seat lightly a min before you want to use it.. the fast evaporation cools the seat really quickly..this was my lifesaver with my kids in summer/hot weather when my kids were small!
Have you thought about turning the bus into a guest house/airbnb space and then using shipping containers to build the main housing structure? Some shipping container homes are sooooo cool.
Looks like you have alot more privacy at the new home as well. Thats always refreshing when you need a break!❤
I think y’all should paint it with different animals from Costa Rica as well as the local flora and fauna!!
A big thank you for inspiration and positive motivation🇧🇬🎥👍
Thanks to Louis for working so hard to give us a glimpse of your life in Costa Rica. I really enjoy watching your beautiful family.
Hi, I love this series, and I am very excited to watch your new home evolve. Choose your colour palate from the surrounding plants so that it blends in with the area and then grow things up it that are indigenous to the area. That way, it will look like it is supposed to be there. Love from London ❤
I didn't watch your videos for a while and not I'm getting to binge watch them and it's been the best few vlogs seeing the community, all the different beautiful house designs, cant wait to see the journey of your place and how it'll turn out
Louis we appreciate the phenomenal editing work you’re doing😊
She's seriously so beautiful!! What a power couple!
Thank you Louis!
I'm convinced after watching this far that Neo is 50 percent banana and the rest is a mix up of furrowing eye brows lol he has that down pat and I love it baby giggles. You guys are great
Thank you Louis. Enjoy the blogs. Hope you feel better soon,
Great job editing! I think the container would look cool painted green then take cut bamboo and attach it all around the container like “siding”. That way itt keeps the jungle vibe and blends in!
The vlogs are edited so well!! Good job Louis! Thank you so much for sharing part of your lives with the world! You all are so inspiring! Much love!! 🤍
Container topic -> But a balcony on top and a slide down for Neo ❤
Thank you both! I’m bed bound a lot over here in Australia and I’m always happy to see your lovely wee fam and adventures on Monday’s 🩵 Appreciated ⭐️✅🙏🏼!
Yes! Thank you both for the wonderful videos going on your adventures! You are both hardworking and precious! Neo is growing so beautifully! Stay well and safe dear ones!💝❤️❤️
