I’ve been worrying about you, and am so glad to see you back. You’re a ray of sunshine in these times.

I’m an introvert who lives alone so the isolation is nothing new to me and I actively enjoy it. I talk to myself all the time, or perhaps I should say to the air rather than to myself I just have my inner dialogue out loud, but I’m well aware that I do it so it’s ok. I also talk to the radio and tv, but I am most definitely sane. There’s is absolutely nothing wrong with talking to yourself 👍🏻. I enjoy your vlogs and I’m happy to see that you’re alright and thriving. Well done 😊

Your life is wonderful my friend. A great example of self sufficiency and being one with nature. Could not get any better than that.

Well done young man! You cheer this old man up! You have the right attitude, just do it! And although you're here already for four years may I welcome you to Ireland 🇮🇪 ☔🌤️⚡⛈️🌂😁

thank you for the advice, I am an introvert also and I work from home, and alone most of the time, my friends tell me I might go crazy but we introverts can really cope with isolation very well... I actually prefer to be alone when working! take care and good luck with your projects!

He's alive!! Thank goodness for that.

Keep busy and keep dreaming - the best prescription ever!

16:38: That dog loves you. Proof you are an amazing person.

You have very good neighbours and the Irish are renown for their friendly and kind natures

Hi, great to see your still alive and well , you are so lucky to be living in fresh air,countryside and freedom, I share all your beleifs ,I am stuck in a flat in Darlington,England in this lockdown, and miss hiking in the countryside in Richmond ,North Yorkshire, I am still hoping to win the lottery to buy a place in the countryside, take care Daniel and mossy , Gary Jones

I was thinking about you the other day, wondered how you were getting on. Lovely to see you and Mossy again, and looking so well. Look forward to your future video's. As for talking to ones self, I do it all the time. Take care.

You are inspirational, especially to someone like myself who is introverted.

I am so happy to see you and learn of the progress you’ve made! We think of you often. Blessings, Mary

I feel calm when and after watching your videos. A lot of content has a frenetic "must hold your attention" feel about it, which is nowhere to be seen. Love the videos, please keep that style as I think it's what makes your content unique and and so enjoyable

Huzzah!! Have a wonderful gardening season. xxPS. re " talking to self".... it's the only place I get good answers🥳👍🏽🤣

You're absolutely right about talking to yourself 🙂👍 Stay safe and all the best!

Hello, Daniel! I’m a pretty extreme introvert myself. So it’s been illuminating to confirm for myself that, although it’s tempting to imagine escaping all this scariness to live far away from society off the land as self sufficiently as possible, I’m finding myself more attracted to the scenes of drive-by birthday parties for a neighbor, or people sharing music across courtyards and balconies. We all need to think about our own ideal between society and nature. We all need both. I know you chose to live where you do because you are near a small hamlet, and an internet connection. I need to know that when I choose to come out of my shell, that I am within walking distance of a coffee shop, farmers market, and library. A hiking trail nearby is lovely too. And a backyard garden. It certainly is a time of reflection of what is important to each of us. Thanks for allowing all of us to see a different way to be. Knowing how intentional you’ve been about choosing this, and making it happen, allows us all to make sure we do the same with our own dreams.

“Every morning was a cheerful invitation to make my life of equal simplicity, and I may say innocence, with Nature herself.” ― Henry David Thoreau, Walden

Very positive view! Great to see someone else focusing on working through things by sharing your experiences.

beautiful! you continue to inspire the world Mossy Bottom.

Genuine people are enjoyable to listen to - Thanks Mossy Bottom!

So nice to see you again and all the animals.

Good to see you and Mossy again. I see your magic has been extended to the kune female along with nugget and Mossy not to mention your subscribers! You're as welcome as the flowers in May as my uncle used to say. Great that you have so many plans and I look forward to seeing them in action. The hair is fabulous incidentally!

Welcome back! Sending peace from South Africa ✌️🇿🇦!!!

Dreams... your dream is manifesting in a lovely way for you. All the best!

Good to see you're well, Daniel. Great video as always. Cheers! :)

Hi Mossybottom! I moved to Ireland county longford in the county, I live in a caravan with my border collie whilst I'm doing up a cottage on my parents land. I've been here 10 months and have learned so much about cementing, plastering, electrics and plumbing. I love ireland, rain or shine. Good on you my friend.

I've been thinking about you and wondering when we'd see another video. It was great to see it pop up. I too, am an introvert, so staying home and focusing on my homestead even more, has been a gift to me. I have children that normally require me to leave my place much more, than I would choose on my own. I've wondered for awhile if being able to stay home all the time would bring me as much peace and happiness as I imagined it would. It does!!! I love it! Great to see your projects. Some similar ones here. Looking forward to more. Best wishes to you also.

Very nice video!! I shared it to my Facebook with my over 2,500 followers there. So glad to see you are thriving and accomplishing so many projects. Wise man. Life is our own to make.

Welcome back. We too are about to move from London to a village near Kilkenny and would love to come and WWOOF with you. My wife's a fantastic builder. She'll come and sort out that cottage restoration project while i'm more of a gardener. We come with our own teepee! Thanks for your inspiration and tips

Love seeing your progress, thanks for sharing.

I look forward to seeing more of the building stuff because that is what I know least about and what scares me the most. I'm at the crossroads where I either work up the courage and just do it now or probably never. I think I might.

Great to see you again Mossy Bottom, love the series. Would love to have a little plot of my own, but making the most of my window pots and sunspots!

I quite adore you :) And I think the cow behind you thought you were quite mad, talking to yourself, interrupting her breakfast.... how wonderful :)

Good to see you again.

Thanks for sharing this great experience.

Nice to finally see you Mossy, I keep you in prayer. OBVIOUSLY...'No moss grows under your feet!' You must feel relief over your elevated land berm against moisture = one less problem. The guest house is beautiful! You canNOT tell me that you are not a craftsman. The chickens will have a grand roost/coop! The granary is looking loved/appreciated again. And AHhhh, the 'greens' of Ireland...balm for any drooping spirit. How blessed you are in countless ways, but especially of 'spirit'. I know that it is hard NOT to work on Sundays...but in doing so, you give 'thanks' to thee one who has given you soOOooo much...you also allow your tired body to re-coop! = Double benefit. AND...by so doing...you never get behind...the work waits...the body heals...the blessings are allowed to flow. God Bless you n' yours...and thank-you for giving us an update.

Good to see you. Happy spring 🌻

Can’t wait to follow the developments. Thanks for the content.

Great to see you are alive and well from up the road in cavan 😁

Great to see you again ☺️👍

Everything looks terrific!

Great to see how everything is progressing

I love your tips for isolation. I laughed out loud at number 3 (talk to yourself). I talk things through when I drive my car. It helps me prepare for some conversations (introvert too), problem solve and vent. I also sing like a madwoman to tunes I love which makes it entertaining to watch other on-coming drivers! Can't wait to see all your projects. Thanks.

From the NE to the west fantastic as always thank you 🙏

Glad to hear all your news, Thankyou!

We can talk to ourselves, but we can also talk to the plants we put in the ground, the trees around us, our home and, of course, our pets, if we have any. They all appreciate it and respond to the attention. By the way, that`s the secret behind many people`s green thumb. :=)

Glad to hear from you again ;)

Glad you're back watching your videos are really helpful for our minds at this time 😊 we love Ireland 🌈 we go every year but the virus is stopping us this year .We well be back soon keep safe we love mossy and seeing what your up to so till next time Diane 💯💚🇮🇪🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🌄🌅🌈🐸🌎😇👍👍👍👍

So good to see you back!!! You are an inspiration!!!

You’ve been busy! Well done.

So nice to see another vlog from you. Happy days.🌅

It was so nice to see you and your little farm things are coming along so nicely.

It's good to see you and your progress. Thank you for taking the time to share it.

Good to see you back, with wise and interesting words, as always.

Your small "farm" looks great. All the best for the coming summer. Hope to see you soon !

Thank you. You are a real inspiration. Blessings.

Always a pleasure to hear from you and Mossy. Be safe and well.

Exciting times at Mossy Bottom. Great to see this update.

Love you young man god bless you and love your pup 🐾❤️

Love this video! Thank you for sharing your life😊

Really good to see you ❤

Great video. Love what your doing X

Nice to see u again dude.. stay healthy

Like the hair! At least we don't have to learn to isolate....I live on my six acres in central Florida...backs up to a state forest. I have a small cottage, large barn, garden and lots of pasture. So I really enjoy hearing from you. I have had Border Collie's since visiting Scotland and the Shetlands many years ago - can't imagine life without them. I wanted to say that I too make goals every day....and try to finish them. I love to work - I am 75 and maintain my six acres, with a wonderful garden - but, due to our summer heat do not try a summer garden - too many bugs. Can't wait to see your cottage when you show us. Take care - hugs to Moss and stay healthy and happy! Judy H.

Thanks for the update, keep busy!

Good to see you again hopefully you put more videos regularly

I love this video! Great to see you doing well. Thanks for catching us up on your projects.

Your videos are a breath of fresh air.

Your days must be packed with stuff to do. No time to think about anything else. Your farm is looking very good. Your pigs and cattle look so well looked after. That's how animals were meant to be cared for.

Missed your videos 🌿✨ sending you love and happiness

Nice to see you again, hope you’re well

Well I hope you take care and keep safe and sane.

I so enjoy your expression of being separate, but not separated. Your recommendations are spot on.

Great video..Really looking forward to the next one. The place is looking great!!

So glad you’re back, can’t wait for new videos, put them on your list then we’re sure to see more of you.

It is lovely, encouraging, and a general lift to hear you again, and to get caught up with what's been happening at Mossy Bottom . Much affection and good fortune to you from New York, where I plan to both follow your advice and share it with others.

Loads of changes! Wonderful to see another video from you and amazed that so much has happened since the last one. Yaaaaaay :)
