This was less of a home tour more of a "beautiful human soul" tour.
-
I love how the least interesting thing about Rajiv is that he was in Mean Girls
-
Someone give this man his own TV show! I want to explore and learn with him. The wealth of knowledge and passion for craftsmanship is awe-inspiring. What a truly magnificent soul. 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖
-
I like how he drops in the names of the artisans and suppliers who helped make his vision happen. So transparent and appreciative of the specialized skills of the artists. Amazing man!
-
This guy definitely needs his own show. Call it “How to live beautifully”.
-
A true Renaissance man. Musician; chef, artist, animal lover, potter, decorator, historian . . . is there anything that Rajiv cannot do or attempt? He's living his best life, and I'm envious!
-
This man is absolutely remarkable. Seriously, I just want to sit down at the table with a cup of tea or coffee and just have him tell me about his remarkable life.
-
You can literally see the colour of his soul, all human should aspires to this level of appreciation to the craft of humanity. It’ll change the world if everyone understands just 1% of this man’s ethos.
-
This lad's a freaking polymath! An artist, calligrapher, illustrator, DIY genius, potter, aspiring musician ... a total Renaissance man.
-
This young man is not materialistic. He has a deep appreciation of time periods, effort & detail in items. Break a glass, it’s ok. He doesn’t just see something & say, “that’s nice”. He makes, recreates it. Amazing talent, drive & creativity. I hope he has a long prosperous life.
-
By far the best and warmest home tour. I didn't know him at all and now I want to live like him. Only having things I love and cherish with heart and soul, but if they get 'stained", no need taking it that seriously either. Love this guy.
-
I’ve never watched anything like this is my life, and I’m no spring chicken! Rajiv, you have embraced life to its fullest. It’s remarkable how many interests you have pursued in such a short time, and the wide spectrum of talent that you possess is staggering. To watch your video is like a breath of fresh air and gives me hope and joy. Bless you!
-
From buying forks on his birthdays to being so amused how the pure cotton laced curtains flow in the wind, he is truly just a beautiful soul. He just makes you want to listen to his stories. Very lovely human being.
-
This man is the quintessence of “romanticizing your life” and he’s so charming and has such a deep appreciation for life wow 🥺
-
This man must have lived before! No way can such a young man be so knowledgeable and skilled. I didn’t know him 18.52 minutes ago, and now I adore him.
-
For those of us, artisans at heart, that have made things meticulously with patience and love by hand, Rajiv is a treasure, and pleasure to listen to and watch. In the ever encroaching digital age when nothing authentic appears to be valued it's hopeful to come upon someone like him. Artisans unite. Long may handcrafts reign, and always hold a place in our lives.
-
I want to be as happy as Rajiv is when he looks at his 1854 spoon.
-
I guess this is what living authentically looks like.
-
I love how Rajiv loves beautiful things, like his chalk entry way, and his antique glasses but is so chill if they get worn and used or if there is evidence of life.
-
Rajiv just makes me happy. Just knowing this man is in the world, brings joy to my heart!
