Welcome to my channel!
I’m an Englishman who’s traded life in the UK for a new adventure in Slovakia. By trade I’m a builder, and here you’ll find videos of my work, the ups and downs of starting a building company abroad, and a look at the real costs of making it happen.
I’m just beginning to learn Slovak (with a lot of help from my girlfriend’s translations!), so you’ll see the journey not only of construction projects but also of adapting to a new country, culture, and language.

If you’re curious about building in Slovakia, moving abroad, or just enjoy watching someone start fresh and get stuck in—this channel’s for you.
