To add to my comment, few years back, I went back to the forest thinking I will never find back my childhood shelter. Guess what, after more than 20 years, the shelter was still standing. Very proud of our achievements 😁

This man is not just a brilliant designer and builder. He also knows how to set a wonderfully relaxing mood in his videos. The last few minutes of this video felt like a piece of Heaven.

Reminded me of when l lived in a 'Bender'....wonderful home. A Bender is made from slim usually Hazel sticks made into a dome shaped frame and covered with (hopefully) waterproof canvas and insulated with more cloth inside. A woodburning stove and a pallet floor, A chest for your food and a tight fitting door. 😁

Hi I'm from Philippines, I'm a nature lover that's why I love watching your videos so inspiring and stress reliever.🌲❤️❤️❤️

There’s just something so satisfying and calming about this video.

The only one thing that remains, is the interior plastering... nothing else!!! That shelter is the best I have seen in the KZread!!! Both a simple, natural appeal & construction's appropriate details!! Congratulations!!!

I take my hat off to you. A true piece of quiet determination and patience. A real "made by hand" job and a privilege to see. Thank you for sharing it. Your efforts are much admired. Well done.

When I was a kid, in the forest down the garden, our greatest pleasure was to built almost similar wood shelters (not with a burner otherwise, parents will be furious😁). It was great fun and gave me at younger age, some insights about construction and insulation

Only a real Druid could conjure a steel bed frame out of the ground! Seriously, I just found your channel today... I wept when I saw what you had built. This is absolutely beautiful. I plan to go back and look at all of your videos. Thank you so much for this! 😘

I think the moss planting on the roof is very good because it has a cooling effect in summer and a warming effect in winter. If you also build a rain gutter with a cistern, you will have high-quality water for cooking, drinking and cleaning. Try to find an old bath stove (as often found in Germany in the post-war period). Then you have contemporary comfort in nature.

Really cute, insulating the walls & roof with moss is great. But when it 🌧 , it looks like it will flood.

With the slope you have going towards the door. Won't rain just collect at the door? You did a hell of a job either way. Very impressed

We all keep coming back to watch life like years before us. It gave some kind of comfort and for some, like me, wishing we can have this experience for ourselves at the same time keep living the way we are right now. Might as well we build this kind of build on our back yard too, no need to leave our comfort zone but still can enjoy this too.

The tenderness and delight that we experience from the contemplation of nature is a memory of the time when we were animals, trees, flowers, earth. More precisely: it is the consciousness of unity with everything, hidden from us by time.

Wow, thank you so much, simultaneously relaxing, entertaining and informative! ❤ I could watch you work all day.

I've seen a lot of amazing videos of bushcraft shelters but yours are in a class of their own. Whimsical, artistic, and still keeping basic functionality the main purpose. This on really feeds the soul. Planting on the roof great idea. Your sweet saw moves were unexpected and made me laugh! Thank you for sharing your solitude with us those want the same but haven't gotten there.....yet. 😎💞

It's so nice to see someone doing something they enjoy that is as practical as it gets. So useful, amazing.

This is just incredible. So beautiful. And now I see how you will keep your cob walls and roof tiles sound. They are protected by the moss. What a beautiful way to protect and insulate the home. These videos are just such a pleasure to watch. I subscribed.

This has become an exulent home. I used to visit an old gold panning site from the 1840s, not many know it now. It's deep in the bush in a narrow gully. It was once a hotel but all that is left is an old chestnut tree. I would go there each Autumn with a couple of old prospectors and spend a week panning and exploring during the day and in the evening we would roast chestnuts and eat them with butter washed down with port. I live a long way from that tree now but each Autumn I think of it and the stories it could tell hidden deep in the Buckland valley. No youtube back then but Australia had just got this "thing" called the internet.
