Скачать или смотреть Tortoises Get an Upgrade....and...Why We Didn't Own Our House for a Month

We officially closed on the house.

But it wasn’t that simple.

In Thailand, you can own the land… and not own the house sitting on it. That’s exactly what happened to us. We took a calculated risk closing on the land first, hoping everything would come together a month later.

Thankfully, it did.

At the same time, we’ve been expanding “Turtle World Phase Two” — giving our tortoises more room, more shade, more security, and a better environment overall.

This video captures:
– Building the new tortoise enclosure
– The reality of closing property in Thailand
– Cost of living comparisons (yes… $1 property taxes)
– And a bittersweet goodbye to Mama Tortoise

This is what building a life here actually looks like — progress, risk, family, and a lot of concrete dust.

Thanks for following along.
