Thanks! Here’s a little something to help with the Kitties! 🐈‍⬛ You are the best ❤

Pay no attention to the people asking nosy, personal questions and commenting on your cats andcdecor. You are doing a good thing taking care of these cats and rescuing animals. Well done you two. Plus, love your chateau!!!😊

Watching your channel, the easiness, the "honest" talk, no fuss, no makeup of things, what you hear is how it is, is giving us, me, the insight of a family, their hard work, really hard work considering there's only two people restoring. You're a mum, a cook, a decorator, painter, gardener, animal carer and wife to an equal hard worker, electrician, plumber, builder etc.etc. I have respect for you both in keeping your children away from the public view. Each completion of a project is your triumph alone, there aren't other helpers behind the scene. The honest approach is what really makes me watch your channel and I hope you have work ahead of you for another couple of years!!! And I loved your diplomatic answer: between €200,000 and €2,000.000!!! Serves them right!!!

Lincoln is the pot of gold! : ) I just love you guys, you bring such joy every week. Best wishes from California for a happy 2024!

Absolutely loved the drone footage of that glorious beach. I love beaches where you don't obviously see all the human footprints and can imagine that you alone are the only ones on the beach. People who ask nosy personal questions are just plain rude. Ignore them!! Love your cats and if they are inside it is no one else's business. I would truly miss you both if you stopped filming.

Your channel is beautiful, creative, peaceful and honest. No fuss, just real and easy. I respect you keeping your children’s lives private and your family life to yourselves. What a lovely discovered beach and beautiful drone shots. Here’s to 2024 and your future renovations. xx

I've been watching another Chateau channel for about a year, then came across yours about two weeks ago. You are fun, whitty and charming and love your home and the care you have for the land and the animals that live on it. Do your own thing, don't worry about the criticism and enjoy your journey. I'll keep watching and hope you never tire of filming. Best to the both of you in '24.

I love your KZfaq channel and would feel sad if you stopped You are so natural , refreshing and inspiring There is also a lot of kindness and honesty in your videos You are sharing ❤️🐱🐴🐶❤️ It is a privilege to watch you and witness your dream come true Thank you ✨✨✨💕 Happy New Year 💕🧚‍♀️🧚‍♂️💕💫

Your videos are much anticipated in our household. I check daily to see if you have posted. You are not boring. In fact, you are adventurous!

The chateau is beautiful and I enjoy watching the progress you are making on the renovations

Boring???? No wayyy!! You are funny, down-to-earth, spontaneous and charming. And hard working and adventurous. I love your vlog, and congratulate you on doing a wonderful job with your chateau and your animals. Don’t go away.

I immediately emailed Magnolia to let them know how disappointed I was that they are not featuring you on a DIY channel. You guys are one of the best!!

It's really good to see that you are taking care of the feral cats. They would live a miserable life if you didn't feed them. It's good to hear that you have gotten them fixed as well. Keep up the good work. You have a lovely piece of property and I like the smaller size Chateau.😊

I'm a cat lover and enjoy watching Americans in France, interior decorating and beautiful scenery. You check all the boxes.

You are NOT boring! Thank you for another witty video with stunning pictures of the new beach and happy New Year.

You aren’t boring! I think you summed up the difference between US and French culture pretty well. Amazing shots of that beach!! Happy 2024!

1. You two are not boring 2. Love the donkeys 3. Love the last cat who I think is lost because he/she seemed so hungry for pets and ear scratches 4. Cats aren’t dirty 5. Looking forward to following your 2024 reno progress 6. Thank you so much for the gift of sharing your new beach with its big sky, sparkling coastline and rainbow!

Apparently 30,000 plus viewers don’t find you boring-I’m always amused watching your channel and appreciate your effort in sharing your renovation projects. I hope you don’t get tired of making your vlogs anytime soon! ❤️❤️

The comment 'you are boring' after explaining the differences between US and Europe and how you prefer France. Don't listen to people who think that, there's plenty of other chateau channels for them. You are both easy listening, honest and down to earth people. It would be sad if you stopped your channel because of them. I can dream through your videos about that lovely property you have, the beauty of your mature trees and your wonderful animals.

As usual you are both a delight! I’m not that outgoing either. But the people I like I like. Oh my gosh! The new kitty is so beautiful!! And she wants to be loved! What a honey ❤ I have a little fellow that took months to tame. He loves being loved now, and is at my side. You are so kind, I think of all the suffering you have prevented! Thank you!

You're on my favourite list.... With your voice and Lincoln's coolness with two donkeys, dogs and cats, watching your château transforming, I look forward to every vlog. Happy New Year! love from Bournemouth ,England xxx

OMG, ‘you are boring’…the clip following was phenomenal!!! You two are the antithesis of boring! Your channel, music, edit, content, animals, history…fascinating!!! Thank you so much for sharing as much as you do!!!

Anyone who would call you boring is just green with envy. Who wouldn’t be envious of your beautiful relationship with your spouse, peaceful lifestyle, and an absolutely gorgeous home? 🙋‍♀️ You two make a dynamite design team because you both have impeccable taste! I certainly would watch your tv show; however, with unreality of reality tv here in the USA, I can certainly understand why you wouldn’t want to be bothered with the nonsense. We’re fortunate that you allow us into the inner workings of your lives. You don’t owe us that privilege. I hope you will continue to share with us and to those who want to heap their negativity on you- BUGGER OFF! Happy New Year!❤

I echo tons of other voices, iterating all the lovely, positive attributes of your delightfully entertaining and illuminating vlogs on living and thriving in the French culture, having transplanted from the madness of California! Today, I was utterly transported to serenity, viewing the stunning beauty and talented editing of your trip to the newly discovered beach. I was born and grew up in a coastal town of Oregon State, where our family went to the beach nearly weekly. The tide, the waves, the rocks, sand, and tide pools with the many dancing lights reflecting from the sun... it all resonates with my treasured childhood memories. Even in my late 7th decade of life, I'd be in heaven spending even a day at your dazzling new beach! Thank you for sharing your fascinating, illuminating, educational DIYing, and entertaining life with your KZfaq extended family. You both definitely put a smile on my wrinkled face! From Barb in the PNW, USA!🥰

Beach drone footage was superb. I enjoy when you include footage from your travels away from the chateau.

That kitty eating wet cat food provided great ASMR with the delectable eating sounds. When you live in the country and have out buildings, cats seem to find you. They are good mousers and can earn their keep. Anyhow, I like the channel. Happy New Years!

Your channel is fast becoming my favourite. Don’t know if it’s your laid back vibe or the minimal gold guild that appeals to this quiet Canadian.😊

Yes Amanda! I’m glad your planning on doing some cooking/garden segments ;)

I love watching historic homes being renovated, especially chateaus, plus I so enjoy you two! The donkeys, the indoor cats, feral cats, the dogs - just love how they are a part of your "family." Anyone who cares for animals like you folks do is okay by me. Love your wit and how you two "play together" so well and you're so down to earth! My favorite episode was when Lincoln put up the macrame swing chairs under the tree. I almost fell off my chair from the laughter! You just continue being you and I'll keep watching. And, it's really cool that you draw the line by keeping your children off screen. God meet all your needs in 2024.

I just adore your humour, thank you for making me smile. I so enjoy watching your journey on your beautiful property, I envy your sense of adventure- thank you for sharing that with us. You are a lovely couple and I wish all the very best for 2024.

You guys deserve much more attention and success in 2024. You have a lovely property with so much great potential to share.

We bought our Brittany house sight unseen, though we did investigations about the area and had reports made about the condition of the fabric. We were not disappointed and still love going to Brittany each year from Australia for the Summer months.

Happy New Year! Yours is my favorite chateau and exactly what I would want should I want to buy a chateau (trying to convince my friends to chip in on one and they are starting to warm up to the idea). Your chateau is aesthetically charming, not too big, has the right amount of land, beautiful outbuildings, near scenic towns, not too far from the sea, donkeys and my favorite part of your chateau is your dreamy allée. Considering how crazy the USA is now (not that there are any places on this earth that aren't crazy right now) I one hundred percent think the two of you have gotten it right. Yes I know I live in SoHo, NYC and Dollar A Slice Pizza is right down the street from me (don't be too jealous!) but I think you and your family have landed an extraordinary chateau and lifestyle.

Oh wow...missed you guys...happy 2024❤

Lincoln is definitely the “engineer.”🇺🇸❤️ Lincoln, concerning marriage , “seems like nothing at all.” 😂😂

You are not even close to being boring, your channel and everything you do is pure joy to watch. I look forward to your new episodes and would miss your channel immensely if you chose to stop.

Very glad you all said you didn’t miss much from the US.

I look forward to your videos! I admire your honesty and attitude! I also have no desire to be a tv star. I am impressed as you tackle what seem like huge projects to me and totally understand the feeling of being overwhelmed on some days. Steady but sure while taking care of yourselves. Bravo to your family!

I love your channel! I don't think it is boring at all. love having the animals and the house cats are great! Keep the videos coming! Happy New Year to all of you!

Love, love your low key personalities, your humour and still waiting patiently for the only fans. Thanks for doing this out of your comfort zone. Happy New Year🎉❤

I'm glad you are still willing to post these videos. Your channel is so much better than others which are clearly enslaved by the algorithms. You are open enough to show your life, warts and all, with humor.

I watch 2 people who are renovating Chateaus, and I ran across yours a little over a year ago and watch every week. Of course, if you are putting your life out there, you will have to take the bad with the good! I think the property is beautiful and I am a cat lady, so I enjoy watching the animals and I like watching the rooms get done! Who doesn't want to be happy in the Country? I would love to be there! Happy New Year and stay well!

You’re not boring!! Love your channel!

Thank you for the Q&A, it was great to hear some of the questions and answers. One of my favourite parts of your channel are the animals. The cats are just so adorable....I am truly a cat lover. I also enjoy all of the DIYs, your humour and the camera and drone shots. Thank you so much for taking us along with you and hope you continue for a long time!!

😍Looking forward to watching your progress in 2024!!💖

Great video. The drone footage of the beach was beautiful. So nice you can visit from time to time. Much love to your family and all the critters. Looking forward to your new stories in 2024 ❤

The camera work, scenery, color palette, music selections, wit, and narration combine to create a feeling of balance. Honesty. Like exhaling. I always look forward to our next visit. Thanks for sharing it all with us.

Thanks for sharing your info........always love your videos, laid back plus the inclusion of cats in your decor and donkeys in your garden always brightens my day.....I look forward to the restoration of the cottage and watching the seasons change in your beautiful grounds. Happy New Year to you and your family. xx

Love you guys! Been waiting all weekend for this update. I hope you had a wonderful holiday! ❤ FYI - You are my favorite channel on KZfaq, and I subscribe to A LOT of channels - almost 300. Please don't go away!

Happy New Year! First, I don't think y'all are boring, more like refreshing. I follow a couple other vlogs for the same reason I watch yours. Relaxing and not fast paced. We live in TN and it is all fast paced. Thank you. Second, I usually don't watch Q & A s. Find them really boring but yours was interesting and entertaining. Hope you have an uncomplicated renovation for the cottage.

She's not feral, she's a stray. She's definitely used to people. When you get done with the chateau DIY you could do a cooking/gardening show?

I love your channel, it's very refreshing! I absolutely loved the response or should I say nonresponse to the comment, 'You are boring'...I just smiled and thought that was brilliant! Keep doing what you're doing! I think the cats are telling their friends...hey come on over, this is a wonderful place to be...good food...good people, what's not to love! Thank you so much, appreciate all the hard work putting together these videos. Take really good care, stay well! Lots of love Kathy x💕 (Ontario, Canada)

I really enjoy your channel, not boring at all. That was enjoyable learning more about you and the animals. I’m a cat person - or a crazy cat lady as my family call me - so was pleased to hear an update on the outdoor cats - the newest tabby is so friendly and pretty - thank you for helping them all. Look forward to following your journey in 2024.

I love you guys, enjoy seeing your escapades, and triumphs. Than you so very much for sharing with us. Low Key, and real is what I like to see. All the best to your entire family!

Thank you so much for sharing answers to all of these great questions and for welcoming us into your wonderful lives. I’ll happily volunteer when you are ready for some grunt workers! Cheers to a great 2024. 🎉

I LOVE ❤️ your channel plus your wicked humor is wonderful-so please don’t leave. Your kitties are adorable and the last one that was eating on the table I hope you’re able to catch it. They’re all beautiful!! Happy New 2024 to you both!!

Kitties are telling all their friends to come to the Chateau! We just had 19 and counting feral cats removed from my Dad’s property. Dad just passed away so no one would be there to continue feeding them. Dad would pay for neutering and yet they still multiplied! I am enjoying your videos so please keep filming and answering questions! Happy New Year from deep in the ❤ of Texas!

Love your videos. Thanks for all the info. The outdoor cat you featured is a sweetie. Can’t wait to see what you do in the cottage

Love your channel and seeing the beautiful scenery as well as the ongoing renovations!❤ happy new year 🎉🎉🎉

Happy New Year. I just love you guy’s. Your humor, candor, wit,style, your relationship. I love your cinematography. The beauty you capture in your surroundings. Oh your selection of music. Your love of animals. So much to enjoy and learn. I hope you continue sharing your lives with us. I keep telling my husband to solidify his Italian grandmother relation to see if we could get citizenship and do such a thing? But she’s passed away and I don’t know. Wishing you all the best.

I love your spontaneity, your humour, your taste in decoration and your choice of music (the other day, I listened to Jonny Greenwood until 3:30 a.m. after you gave me his name … couldn’t find that one, but I discovered others… he is absolutely amazing, I wonder how come I missed him). thank you for showing our beautiful region with amazing beaches (we are only 37 mn away to the west). Happy New Year to all ❤

Happy New Years you two! Always enjoy your hard working,humorous banter!🎉🥳🇨🇦

Happy New Year to you and your family (whether they be of the 2-legged or 4-legged variety). May you never lose your « brand » of boring! 😊 I wish you continued success with all your renos and your youtube channel. You deserve a much wider audience, with your great cinematography, music and editing. 🎥 🎶 🫏 🐈 🐕 🏰 Thank you for taking us along for as long as you want to do this. Greetings from 🇨🇦

Hello from PEI Canada.🇨🇦 So you don’t miss the traffic. I understand the quietness, peace and nice people and culture, as we now have here after living in Toronto

I look forward to you each week Keep it going. Please..

Oh my gosh, that beach! How lucky to have that in your area. You both have become two of my favorite vloggers. I love your senses of humor. I also appreciate you both so much for your love of animals and how you never seem to hesitate to help an animal in need. Happy and health new year to you both!

I love love love your videos. You have the best sense of humour (very Australian actually, we’re laid back and into self deprecation too). Those who said you are boring are just rude, but more importantly, just totally wrong. I love that you let us into your lives in France and I feel I live there vicariously through you all the chateaux that I follow on KZfaq. I love all things French and it’s a delight to see your part of the world and how you live in France. Please just keep on doing what your doing and let us keep coming along on the journey with you

You are a delightful couple and I thoroughly enjoy your show. Hope you never burn out!

I have grown to love you our vlog and the many adventures you share with us. …yours is ‘The Peaceable Kingdom’ … it has to be with the animals and woodland surrounding your beautiful chateau and the outbuildings with their unique charm. The drone footage of the new beach was breathtaking, thank you… I watched it over and over each time seeing something even more spectacular… thank you for sharing your sweet and magical experience living in France. May 2024 bring you many more Blessings and adventures with your ever growing family and friends 🕊️🌟💛 with gratitude, Ana María, in Perú and Washington state🌸

Wishing you all the very best in 2024 with your plans and dreams. May the girls have a good year at school, may you have delight adventures and much joy and laughter.

I sincerely hope that you continue with the channel for as long as possible. Your wonderful dry senses of humor remind me of the people here in Minnesota. It really is always a joy to see how the DIY is progressing and to get some indication of what it will be like when my spouse and I finally move from MN to France.

Don't change a thing. **** everyone else, wishing you everything you wish for yourselves. Have a Great 2024 looking forward to watching your adventures. Cheers Lynda

I always look forward to your post. I admire your husbands and your work effort. I love your how you are styling your chateau. I also love your sense of humor!!!

You are both just beautiful people sharing your life, Thank you!

First of all Happy New Year to you both and of course your children. I discovered your channel while we were in lockdown and have viewed just about every video you've posted since. Whatever the recipe for a successful youtube channel is I'm not sure, but you guys are certainly cooking up a winner. Maybe having a pro chef in the house helps. I must ask, who picks the music for your channel? For me, it's possibly the secret sauce. Love it. Anyway, enough of my nattering, here's to a happy, healthy and successful 2024 both for yourselves and everyone else. Cheers!

Love your house The cows watching try out keys to open the doors was hilarious

I must honestly say, I enjoy seeing the beautiful world you both have created. It is truly a pleasure to see the projects, the animals, and a part of the world that is so peaceful. It is so unlike the craziness of large USA cities. I thank you for sharing, and Happy New Year.

You are NOT boring, definitely not. You are authentic, that's a difference. I too, absolutely loved the drone footage of that amazing beach. To a happy, productive and healthy 2024!🌞

Enjoyed this Q&A very much. You guys make a great team.

I await your videos each week! Y'all have great personalities and wit. The animals are adorable even if they don't play with toys. Your design and color choices are perfect. Christmas decor was natural , I could go on and on. I'm not a designer but I know when I see good choices!

Absolutely love you guys. I get so excited every time you post a new video. Thank you for loving and caring for the cats etc.

Happy New Year 🥂🍾🎉 I enjoy your videos so much! I hope you continue to enjoy making them 😊 the place is so beautiful! Take care

Have a happy 2024. I have enjoyed every vlog and all your enthusiasm.❤❤

Been following from the beginning and will continue. I’m in South Carolina and absolutely love and appreciate your sense of humor. Wishes for the best in 2024 ❤❤

Hi to both of you and all the pets and kids. I love watching your content. I do appreciate the information you provide also I wanted to say your chateau seems manageable to work not overwhelming. At least the drone won’t be stuck in a tree . Love you both take care and I’ll see you in the next one . 💕😊🌼

What a beautiful beach. It reminded me of the beaches in New England that my family visited on summer vacations about a bazillion years ago. The blue water, on the other hand, when the drone flew over, is the exact color of Pamlico Sound in North Carolina. I live in the Appalachian Mountains at present, and I am desperate for salt air right now, so again, thanks. Inside kitties rule. 😺

Love your content, its a great mix and you are special people.

I love Brittany, and really loved the footage of your "new" Beach- I wish you told us where it is. Your channel has just the right amount of everything- some go on for 20 minutes showing us scraping something [!] Even your music is good. P.s. - if that cat lets you pick her up - she's not "feral" per se. Worth taking to the vet, yes. Happy New Year!

I lived in Easton,Ct and in Paris for a couple of years in the 60's.....I so enjoy your KZfaq channel and your vlogs....tonight the footage from the beach was breathtaking!!! Please

You guys are great. I have watched you from the very beginning! I think there were about 30 of us then. Anyway! I love every video you put out. You are both very dry witted and highly intelligent! It is a pleasure to watch your beautiful videos. Here’s to a happy, healthy and prosperous new year! Praying for you to get done what you want to this year. God Bless! 😊love from Denton, TX, 🇺🇸

Happy new year!

I love your low key attitude towards all the projects you have ahead of you. You are both so calm and you have a great sense of humor, I look forward to watching your videos.

Happy New Year, wishing you and your family a happy, healthy and successful 2024. I am a lurker and have watched you from day one but this is the first time commenting. You are both doing an excellent job and love what you have achieved, it is very honest and it is great watching you grow more comfortable in front of the camera. I love that you don't perform and are true to yourselves, I do hope you continue. As accomplished people in different areas I am sure your future projects are going to be interesting and I look forward to continuing with you on your exciting journey. You are an awesome couple; your kindness and nurturing of the beautiful donkeys, caring for stray cats, dogs (and a three legged fur baby) speaks volumes, we need more people like you in the world. St Malo is a gorgeous area and of all the chateau restorations that I watch on YT, yours is the one I would want to own and the outbuildings are a bonus set in beautiful land. Thank you for all your hard work entertaining us and I would add, Lincoln has a fabulous speaking voice, a wonderful, gentle tone, very easy on the ears, I am amazed he is a New Yorker. Good luck, stay safe...cheers to 2024.🥂🍾🎆⭐❤

You seem to have been there a few years by now. How have you integrated into the community? Have you made friends? Joined groups? Learned french? Thank you for your really inspiring channel, I appreciate greatly. Bonsoir. 😊

🎉happy new year 🎉 enjoy your vlogs you keep it real and lol with a funky sense of humor 😊 it is great how you take care of strays my daughter here in the ill is very much with spay and stay for feral cats 😊❤😊

The best French channel on KZfaq by far Until I get mine lol

Love your lifestyle, especially the animals...Liz

I love how you take care of the cats, they are my favorite animals! My daughter feeds the strays around her house, but unfortunately cannot afford to do more for them. I feel so sorry for them, being out in the cold and so afraid of people, to not know the love people can give them. We all have indoor cats also, so she cannot take in anymore but there are regular ones she feeds and has made a shelter for the ones who will use it and lets them under her porch if they want. So bless you for taking care of the ones you can! 😸😻 Happy New Year to you all!

The beach was so beautiful, I was thinking the drone might have been at the end of the rainbow and had found the pot of gold but was keeping quiet. Lovely to see.

Happy New please don't get bored with you I want to see you finish the chateau in the outbuildings. I look forward to watching your videos
