The very beginnings were perhaps the most challenging. Drainage, site preparation, foundations, the first construction work… All of it was physically and mentally exhausting. On a slope, almost everything was more complicated than on a regular flat plot of land. Every subsequent step brought new complications, decisions, and problems that needed to be solved right on the spot.
The romantic idea of building cabins quickly turned into a daily reality full of mud, dust, hard work, and an endless search for solutions.
It was hard. Complicated. Sometimes almost unbearable.
There were times when I felt like giving up on everything. But at the same time, there was something within me that constantly pushed me forward. The desire to finish what we had started and to finally see the place I had once only imagined in my head standing before me.
And I wasn’t alone in this.
A huge part of this entire journey was the faith of my then-partner and now wife. She believed in me, in this project, even in moments when we ourselves didn’t know if we had embarked on something beyond our capabilities.
We embarked on Bella View young, without experience, and without knowing everything that awaited us. But it was precisely this project that showed us what it truly means to believe in your dream – and above all, in each other.
When you walk among the cabins today, look out from the terrace at the landscape, or notice one of the small details inside, know that almost every one of them holds a piece of our shared story.
They contain our ideas, our decisions, and our work. There’s a lot of love here, but also many sleepless nights, fatigue, mistakes, disappointments, and moments when we had to start over.
