A NEW YEAR UPDATE
Added 2025-01-12 18:04:09 +0000 UTCIf you just so happen to find yourself spending some time on this little corner of the internet, you're one of my people, and I'm so grateful for you. Thank you for being my support team for YEARS. You have made a crazy, far-fetched dream to be a full-time artist come true for me. Thank you endlessly.
Sending all of you love. <3

As Cyndie says...I've enjoyed watching all that you've done in the past few years. I was interested in you because of your love of nature and how you respected it along your way, and doing it while still so young; and your filming continued to improve. I was excited when you were excited about new adventures, your time in Mexico, seeing the super bloom, moving to Germany, and all the renovation you've done. You and Ally are so lucky to have met and to have a common interest and each other sharing it together. As always ... follow your heart.

2025-01-23 18:24:22 +0000 UTCThanks, Maddie. I’ve been following you for quite some time because I’ve always felt you were real. You’ve shown it here again. I’m wishing you the very best in every way. I honestly didn’t think I’d enjoy you’re house remodeling as much as I did your van life, art, and nature stuff as I’m an avid van camper and that’s how I found you. But your personality and style have remained consistent and keep me coming back. I think you’re awesome! I’m going to stay positive, incorporate more travel into my time, and work with joy on a quilting project I’m preparing. I hope you seek all possible assistance to speak fluent German asap so you feel more connected where you’re at, you get a chance to get back to your beautiful art, and you find laughter in every single day. Sincerely. 🌸

2025-01-18 23:15:51 +0000 UTCWOW this was such a beautiful video. Thank you so much. I felt i got to know you for the first time. I have been following you for a long time and JUST been able to create a Patreon account. I live in Egypt and its blocked here but i found a solution with vpn. I am actually in love with your more poetic content. I can get a bit lonely as an expat sometimes and following you and other vloggers makes me feel less alone. I’m excited to see more of this kind. And please show your wild life videos. Sending love from Egypt ❤️❤️❤️❤️

2025-01-13 20:24:54 +0000 UTCLike everyone here...thanks for the update, and honesty as you head into the year of 2025. I definitely look forward to seeing you on YouTube for when you share. So sorry to know that your family has been affected by fire; and yes for all of our CA neighbors who are suffering now. As a 72 year old person, I've enjoyed seeing such a young person follow her dreams even when there is anxiety of where they are headed. I wish I could have know that much about myself at your age. Hugs to Eliza for healing.

2025-01-13 17:16:13 +0000 UTCDefinitely understand your dilemma. But you definitely have to be true to yourself. And you can only rebuild the house for so long so you might as well start transitioning to where you want your new direction to be. Having lived in Germany for four years I have found it very interesting on how their homes were constructed. And may I say that room you’re in During this video looks absolutely wonderful. I hope your pup is doing good now. It’s always tough when our fur babies don’t have a true voice, and we have to make their decisions for them. But the two of you look like you give her plenty of love. Please give her a kiss on the nose for me. I don’t know whether or not you’d want to consider letting your lovely partner take more control over a project or two on producing a video. Maybe even changing up your schedule a little bit to allow you the time to create with a little less stress. Your concern and a little stress did come through on your video, on the last thing, any of us want is for you to become burned out and you’ve been doing this long enough that you know what happens when you do get burned out. Yes I did look to see whether or not you had posted this weekend but from my side if it’s because you had something you were dealing with or even just a mental health weekend, – totally fine with me. Love of three of you and want to do the best for yourselves, which will lead a better content for us. Ken.

2025-01-13 06:10:42 +0000 UTCThankyou, Maddy, for your honest update. I have really enjoyed watching your progression from Van Life to House Renovation. In addition, your nature photography and video's are great. Keep on persuing what makes your happy in your work. I hope you have a fantastic 2025. Cheers Tony

2025-01-13 00:45:43 +0000 UTCI've been watching your videos for some time now. I enjoyed your van life, especially how you included nature photography and your beautiful artwork. I think, though, that I'm enjoying your new life in Germany even more if that's possible. I've always enjoyed watching house renovations on TV, so I love that aspect of your videos. But the cultural aspect of discovering a new country is what truly fascinates me. So, keep doing what you're doing. Let us see your latest DIYs, take us along on country walks, share your daily chores, show us some beautiful nature videography. Maybe a town excursion in the spring? Thank you, Mattie, for sharing your life with us. Best wishes for a healthy and happy New Year to you, Elli, Eliza, and the three duckies!

2025-01-12 19:51:15 +0000 UTCThere is sooooo much to share other than van life. Your life with Elli, all of the house projects, short trips to interesting towns, villages and nature in Germany. Then there’s your fabulous artwork! Just watching the love and joy of you two brings joy to me. Our entire world is in a difficult stage with climate chaos, right wing extremism, wars, genocide, etc. Just navigating through this can be difficult for so many. Live your life for you. Do what makes you happy. When you were in your van, I watched everything you did outside the van. So pretend your beautiful home is just like your van and share as much as possible about your home, your new country and so much more that Patreons and YouTubers will enjoy. Te deseo paz, alegría y prosperidad en el Año Nuevo!❤️❤️❤️

I have loved your renovation videos. You and Elli are creating a beautiful home. I can’t wait to see the future renovations. ♥️♥️

2025-01-12 18:27:59 +0000 UTCVan life brought me to your channel but personally, I really like the house renovation content. I'm sure the change in your life and Youtube content is challenging, but you're doing a great job and it's appreciated!
