Those of you who have been here in my blog for quite some time now know that we (my husband and I) are renovating our small cottage or as they called it "Stuga or Torp" in Swedish. I know it takes years and years of progress because we are doing it all by ourselves with a little resources and tight budget on hand, but it's okey because we are enjoying each of every moment of it plus we're not in a hurry to move in on it anyway! We just enjoying and learning the process of doing it.

The last owner has taken down all the roof tiles and replace it with this metal roof (which is look awful!) |
Can you imagine! this is the cottage before (picture above) year 2018 when we started clearing out around the house. It surrounds with lots of bushes and apple trees, nestle in the middle of a jungle with overgrown grass. All windows are in bad shape and it has a one leaky roof.

Here at the back of the house that looks bad, the wall has so much green algae and trash everywhere. |

And so autumn season comes! everything turns into yellow :) it nice to see our cottage in full view and it seems like it is the first sunset that our cottage saw for a very long time |

Our logs for winter season.
