oh god in east, that's not the greatest part of country, people are moving out and not moving in. I bet you had to to be absolutely in love with your wife to move there I had been living in Zilina, love that town.

It's not that bad, but I am only here temporarily for three years, then we are moving on together once we both complete our studies.

I would consider moving back here for retirement once I have earned enough and have a lump sum to live off... but we'll see if that ever happens



*edit* and updated again.

Updated a few days ago again, moving in almost full swing again now, 1 more week of the semester and then final exams.

Took delivery of 7 pallets of Ytong and 60m2 XPS insulation for under the floor, also 35 bags of cement etc to get started on building up again soon.

Once I've worked through all that material we'll need to order even more!

Hoping to get another 9 tonne of aggregate tomorrow.

Updated again, started a little bit of building walls again but I need to go out and buy a new SDS+ drill as the last one decided to die.

Few more things to sort out with School this week, then I can go into full swing building mode since most of the material is here and ready to go!

Hi,
Nice blog. You have a BIG project going on there
Are you doing everything yourself or are you hiring some people?
So far ours is DIY
I live just outside Presov.

 

[Mrdjc]

Mainly myself, had some help with new sewer stuff but only to fill back in, and help with roof beams... rest has been more or less myself except for the first room I had a fair bit of help tidying up etc since they were trying to rush it to get it finished so granny would stop complaining.

Are you an Expat then?

I'm just south of Kosice.
