* I realize now watching throught the Q&A that is sounds like I ghosted my date. I didn't really, I did reply a little I just didn't really carry on the conversation and made it flow and therefore it ended. I think ghosting is wrong.
Your fair skin is one of the things that makes you unique and beautiful! Your face is flawless. Especially with your fiery red hair and gorgeous vivid blue eyes!
I think pets are a true committment....not to be adopted lightly. I applaud your sincere consideration about your"timing" of life to be ready for any pet.👍
Don't settle, as far as a partner goes. My niece was in her late 30's before she "found the one". They are a perfect match! You seem to be an intuitive person, trust your feelings. 💖
You DO have a talent. It's your artistic eye that finds beautiful clothing and beautiful things for your house. You MAKE places more beautiful . You inspire us to live more beautifully and creatively.
Everyone has gifts. We often don't recognize them because they come more naturally. One of yours is your creativity... fashion, plants, decorating, even meal preparing. Also, you have more skill than most at running a business and producing videos. You connect well with others to boot. Enjoy your vacation!
Elise, there's nothing wrong with being friends with someone you do not feel the romantic connection with. Getting to know men on a friendly basis is good. In many ways it helps to clear those whom you could potentially find a love match with and those who you can just be friends with. Not every male interaction needs to be romantic. Friends are good too. They also add layers to life as well. They often open circles of other people whom you can have meaningful friendships with. There are alot of lessons to be learned from friendship. Blessings and I hope you have loads of fun on your vacation. Enjoy the restful times spent with family. Those are often the most significant times in one's life. Beautiful memories and just fun as well as easy going moments mean the most in one's life.
Having tenacity and determination is a gift and talent. Not giving up and the willingness to try until you succeed is a gift! Another of your gifts and this is coming from a 66 year-old grandmother is that you have a fabulous sense of style and fashion! Not everyone has that gift and you need to realize that you do.❤
That outfit you wore with the vest is so delicate l and feminine. I like it very much. 😊 All the things you photographed today are too. I am tired today and something about seeing these soft, willowy clothes is very soothing.
Just came across this vid. NO NO NO! Your beautiful as you are. Yout were blessed with two gifts. Your artistic talent and the BEAUTY of your. I say sweet milky white complection and strawberry hair. Strawberry and Cream! BEAUTIFUL! Don't ruin that. All the best and KUDOS to your channel.
Perseverance is also a gift! And being an independent person who is afraid of very little. And knowing about how to put together colors, patterns, shapes in a beautiful way. And recognizing the beauty in vintage things. And knowing how to do things for yourself. All gifts!
I'm super proud of you for knowing that you don't have the best situation for pets. So many people get pets without having the means to give it the attention it deserves!!
I hope your vacation goes amazing for you and your sister. You deserve a relaxing time. Im ready to see a gallery wall in your living room tho!! Lol As for pets, I feed the birds. If I need to go out of town, i know they can fend for themselves, and always come back when I get home. No guilt, no worries.
Living alone as a woman is an absolute blessing especially if you own your own home, no one should ever fear that! Also being single doesn't mean you need a pet in your life, that is weird thinking, not everyone has that need or want! Keep being yourself and never feel put-upon by other people's expectations or fears... You are doing you properly, flaws and all!!
I always enjoy your videos. You’re so humble and real all the time. 😊 As far as dating goes, don’t rush the process. Just take your time, enjoy being young and remember how special you are. Blessings Elise.
i am an elderly woman who was in my 20’s in the 70s. dating was always hard and in fact i never found a perfect fit. i did have a daughter and she has been a joy. i also learned to be independent and do things on my own and also felt i had no talents. but i must say i think you do possess them. you have kept a business going for one thing…and done wonderful things without help at the allotment and your house. i think i could live in your beautiful garden! it is such a delight!
Hi Elise!! Girl you have talent pouring out of you!! Growing flowers & plants, your painting, decorating, & your ability to pick out those gorgeous outfits to name a few!! I hope you had a safe, relaxing, & fun vacation!! Hang in there your prince charming will come along & sweep you off your feet when you're least expecting it!! 🩷☺️
You do work so many hours- luckily many of us love to see you take care of your garden and home and cooking, and sitting and eating in the garden. Also other activities like your painting etc. hopefully vlogging those activities gives you a healthy work balance. That is my hope for you 💕
Don't tell the world about where your sensor lights are. Although, you are fearless, amazing and just a beautiful person . Do have security on your home,there are so many sophisticated systems that can be secured and not seen. Well it is true you are. very TALENTED. You don't give yourself enough credit.
You are SO talented at SO many things! Decorating, fashion, owning your own business, gardening, creative in so many ways, vlogging, expressing yourself, videography and editing. I really could go on. Girl! I don't think you understand what being gifted means. You are FULL of talents!
@@EliseBuch Yes, we also have to work hard when we have talent. You use your gifts and talents. You can have abilities and never grow them, but you have nurtured them. You put in the effort. Talent doesn't mean you also don't have to work hard to achieve things. You are an ARTIST in the way you live life. That is natural born, not everyone has that. It's unique to you. EVERYONE is gifted. Everyone has some sort of talent. It's about finding what that is and growing it. You have done that. 💕
Dear Elise, as all comments say, you are “artistically” talented obviously. But even more important than that, you are bringing so much light, so much truth, so much hope to so many people. And you care. Although I really admire your strength at being self employed and managing your life with such courage, the one thing that I find truly unique, and that to me is your most wonderful achievement, is your Humanity. Your honesty, your will to do the right thing - typically showing in the book you chose to bring with you, and your wisdom about not adopting a pet now, the way you deal with rejection after a date - all this makes you such a conscious and beautiful Human being. May I just tell you: you are never alone, and you make others feel they are not alone. Thank you Elise.
I don't wanna judge or anything. Please take it with a grain of salt. I also find hard dating and I was rejected and rejected people. Sometimes people just kinda ghosted me with no further explanation. Left me on read via message and after this pattern being repeated so many times, I felt like something was wrong with me. It took me to a bad place, so your not so direct attitude towards people you are not interested can also lead them to a bad place, thinking something is wrong with them. Rejection is never easy, for both parties, but ghosting is far more hurtful. IMO. So rip the band aid and try to let people know, firmly and direct that you are not interested.
Your alabaster skin is part of your natural beauty. It makes you YOU. I understand wanting a change just like hair color, but know your beauty cannot be purchased. ❤️☺️❤️
I have a theory about asking kids 'what do they want to be when they grow up'. For some reason that is the 'go to' question for kids, and people don't mean anything by it. However, I feel that it's a habit that innocently and inadvertently takes away from them just being able to be kids, and being in the moment. At school, so much of the teaching is focused on "teaching for the upcoming state tests", or when kids are in 5th grade, they talk/teach all about the 6th grade years, and so on and so forth, straight up until high school. Most adults don't even know what they want to be, and they're already grown up. Can we allow children to be who they are, and trust that they'll grow into who they'll be at their own pace - can we do this with ourselves no matter what age we find ourselves at? On another note, I so appreciated your honest response about having pets. Hope you enjoyed your vacation!!
Commitment, drive, independence, organizer, friendly, knowledgeable, pretty, knowing how to dress-I could go on and on. Look at your personality traits and realize what talents really are!
You know, I have lived alone most of my 76 yr life, and am never fearful either. Surrounded by my plants, love flowers, good food, music, gardening, beautiful things....a Taurean sensuality you know? I too, love sleeping alone. Wish you were the daughter I never had.
I think that you will know when and if you will have another pet in your life. You show a lot of maturity in knowing that it is not the time right now. That must have been heartbreaking but also very brave to give Luna the best life possible. I am such an animal person but went for a few decades without a pet of my own. Then the perfect time came up for me to have a rabbit - I woke up one day just knowing it was time and five years later, even with major life changes, she proved to be the best decision.
I think what you feel about your abilities is “determination”. My husband is the same way. He is not naturally talented at the things he likes to do, but because he likes them he puts in the effort to learn as much as he can about the subject and does it over and over again to get better at it. He’s very determined. Also, I love your make up in the Q&A ☺️
Thank you Elise, I really enjoyed this video I am excited for you going to Greece I loved the packing and the Q&A I met my husband through the newspaper 38 years ago, and it was very exciting we really haven’t told too many people especially family. It will happen. Hugs Bea
I can't believe you got all that accomplished and got everything in one suitcase, but your clothes are tiny❤ I have been Watching you for almost the entire time you have had your channel.
I’m 46 and I’ve lived alone most of my life, plus travelled a lot and moved around and I ALWAYS wanted a cat, but never got one because I didn’t want to subject it to all that change, and plus me always going out and not being with it for company. It’s a creature who also needs love and company and it’s family around. It was only when I turned 40 and felt more settled and then eventually bought my own home - and LOVED staying at home and not going out to bars or parties anymore! - is when I got a cat. I think it’s totally acceptable and also kind to wait until you feel more settled and a homebody :)
Thank you so much for this wonderful video from your life with a home, gardening and wonderful creativity. You have a talent for creating beatiful videos. I hope that you had a nice trip. You noted at one point that many of your followers are past sixty of age (me too). Somehow I believe that it touches some of us who were seventies-eighties 'hippies' (my daughter tells me that I am one), and who never really left that type of life with a pretty basic lifestyle, colorful shirts etc. I still wear my floral or patterned shirts to this day, and my youngest tend to borrow the barets that I bought from you. Some of us still believe in a good and somewhat simple life with thrifted items, gardening and crafting many of our own things. I belive that you probably also remind of your mother as well. All the best. 🤩
Always enjoy your videos. The clothes are beautiful, your style is timeless. I also love your interior colour schemes. The garden is beautiful. As for dating, sometimes when you stop looking the right one comes along. Hope your holiday is fab and you had a lovely rest x
Self teaching and learning is a pretty big talent! You are very inspirational! Thank you! The right one will come along when you least expect it! That's the beauty of love and life! Enjoy your vacay! Be safe!
When will people be okay with the colour they were born? You were beautiful just the way you were. There is nothing wrong with being fair skinned. It looks stunning on you. You have a wonderful look. Appreciate it and don't worry that you 'have to' have a tanned to be summery or vacationy. I am a fair skinned red head myself, and I have never felt the need to be anything else. Enjoy being your unique self.
You are incredibly driven, motivated and tenacious. That is an amazing combination of fantastic traits. You are very independent! Have a great vacation.❤️
I get what you are saying, Elise 🤗However, I think your gifts are discipline, determination, tenacity, and work ethic. So on and so forth. I agree with you in that your gifts are not in the sense one would expect, let’s say as an artist, or a sculptor, etc… however, you have a gift of perseverance, despite your circumstances. You show us that you can do whatever you set your mind to. And at times yes, it may not be perfect. And that’s OK. That helps us to see that everything we do simply needs to bring us joy. And you bring us joy!
Intuition is a powerful gift, as I think of it as the ability to very quickly, subconsciously, synthesize information from many different sources. So, when you meet someone there are many social and physiological cues happening at once, and your intuition comes into play as that gut "yes" or "no". I fell in love at first sight with my partner, and we've been together 7 years now - there were so many practical things when we first met that should have gotten in our way, but my intuition was too strong to ignore.
Also, packing cubes are the best! Effortless organization when traveling. You can basically live out of your suitcase without feeling insanely stressed.
Very wise about pets. They are a huge responsibility if you want provide the best life for them. I don't understand peoples pet pressure. Almost like kid pressure.
I hope you’ve had great holidays, congratulations for putting up this video in advance - so organized 😮 also have fun with your projects back home, I hope the lemon tree is still happily producing fruits 😀
I agree with you completely on knowing in the first five minutes if things will go any further. And yes, it’s super hard when they like you and you don’t like them back. Dating is so hard.
People just need to be honest from the start and say what they want and need from a partner. If the person is still interested in meeting up then thats great and if not then that person wasn't right for you anyway. To much texting back and forth before meeting is a wast of time. See it as a job interview where the other person has to convince YOU to hire them🙂
Elise you look lovely. I am so white I'm almost see through😂 There's no hope of me ever having a tan so I always fake tan before I go. I do mine myself at home and I take it with me so I am tanned all holiday. Just some tips for a flawless tan. The day before tanning exfoliate, shave and moisturise. Also avoid any products with citrus as this can effect the tan. Have a wonderful holiday.x
The brick wall. Glad you mentioned it as its crossed my mind a few times. Treat it with a matt varnish/proprietary protection before painting it any colour. Right now, you know what you want. In 5 years you might decide that you miss the warmth of its natural colour. Once painted without protection you'll never be able to strip it back. An extra expense in time/effort/money but one that you might be glad you did (or a new occupant) and it will do no harm if the change is permanent. Just a hopefully helpful thought from my hyperactive brain. I hope you had a great holiday. I too, am a frightening to men lady as I don't believe in getting a man in to do a job I enjoy. The best men appreciate working together. ;)
I hope that you have a wonderful time in Greece. I love your brick wall in your sitting room, but I know it is your home, and your choice what you do with it. Love to you from West Devon, England. xxx
You are so cute. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing some more personal details about your life. I look up to you a lot, honestly. And you DO have talent. I feel very similarly. I always said “I am just mediocre at a lot of things, but not GOOD at any of them.” Lately I’ve embraced my best qualities and have been calling them talents. Your ability to decorate, to see colors and patterns, to put together outfits, run a business.. being KIND, being confident, being genuine and authentic, the ability to see beauty everywhere you go. I think your most used phrase is “that’s sooo beautiful”. That is a special gift, Elise. 💕
I am surprised in modeling agency. Hasn’t snapped you up by now. You are uniquely beautiful and have a fun personality and Darlene grin. I think the fact that you have to work to learn a skill and that you don’t give up is more complementary then if something came easy to you. Have a wonderful vacation and remember that spray tans can be applied in the winter. Lol summer vibes always win.
The spray tan looks great! Of course your fair skin is beautiful too, but i totally understand wanting to look sunkissed fir certain occasions! Im also fair skinned, but i enjoy using a self tanning mousse in the summer and there's nothing wrong with that! Hope you have a fantastic vacation!
I'm also a red head and use fake tanner. I completely understand why you got one and I think it looks great on you! Nothing wrong with wanting to feel tan! Loved your video ❤
I agree with you about dating. I had been the same way. If there was not the possibility of a future, then why waste one another's time. When I met my now-husband, early in dating we went to a nice restaurant for lunch and we both told each other we had the other investigated, lol, we knew it was meant to be. ;) that may not be romantic to everyone, but to us it meant each was serious!
Be careful of spray tanning or tanning beds, but extra careful in too much sun. your skin is beautiful. Tan naturally is safer. Artifacts tan causes cancer
You can achieve same results with self tanning at home for a fraction of the price… and you can be tanned all year round if this is what you want! Used to do this and it looked amazing ☺️ Happy vacation 🤍
I love the way you say mosquito!! I shall be saying it that way from now on. You are a strong independent woman and that in itself is a talent. You are an amazing roll model for young women 💜
Good for you Elise. I am like you. I am much older but I am also a curious person and open to learning new things. WE can all learn something new and gain skills.
Everyone has something they are drawn to or have a knack for. Skills come from practice, from growing and from learning. All of us watching, we all have something we are interested in and we can all grow and learn skills. We just need to be brave and try something new on our own. Asking for help from friends is good too.
I definitely understand what you are saying about instant chemistry and interest. As soon as I saw and met my husband I knew it was right. We spent all of our free time together after that, engaged a year later and married the year after that...51 years ago!!
* I realize now watching throught the Q&A that is sounds like I ghosted my date. I didn't really, I did reply a little I just didn't really carry on the conversation and made it flow and therefore it ended. I think ghosting is wrong.
Your fair skin is one of the things that makes you unique and beautiful! Your face is flawless. Especially with your fiery red hair and gorgeous vivid blue eyes!
Isn’t she gorgeous? No spray tan needed!
Absolutely! But she looks awesome with a tan too! @@daisydukes8252

@@sejbomb Her natural coloring is hidden with the tan-fair skin, beautiful against her hair so I cannot agree with you.
I agree
I love being alone and having my home❤it helps when we have a million hobbies🥰😉
I think pets are a true committment....not to be adopted lightly. I applaud your sincere consideration about your"timing" of life to be ready for any pet.👍
Me too ! What you said. ❤
Dear Elise you are wrong, you have the amazing talent of enjoying life and navigating it through difficulties. Believe me this is a gift
100% agree with you on this.

Don’t knock your natural skin tone, it’s lovely and special!
I totally agree
I totally agree and would love to hear more of that sentiment from people! Enjoy your natural lovely self! 😊
Sun screen and no artificial tanning. Your skin tone is magnificent. Isn’t it the truth we all want what we don’t have!
How about not telling people what they should or shouldn't do with their looks? :)

Elise, there's nothing wrong with being friends with someone you do not feel the romantic connection with. Getting to know men on a friendly basis is good. In many ways it helps to clear those whom you could potentially find a love match with and those who you can just be friends with. Not every male interaction needs to be romantic.

Thank you so much for this wonderful video from your life with a home, gardening and wonderful creativity. You have a talent for creating beatiful videos. I hope that you had a nice trip. You noted at one point that many of your followers are past sixty of age (me too). Somehow I believe that it touches some of us who were seventies-eighties 'hippies' (my daughter tells me that I am one), and who never really left that type of life with a pretty basic lifestyle, colorful shirts etc. I still wear my floral or patterned shirts to this day, and my youngest tend to borrow the barets that I bought from you. Some of us still believe in a good and somewhat simple life with thrifted items, gardening and crafting many of our own things. I belive that you probably also remind of your mother as well. All the best. 🤩
Sometimes we are not ready to date for a while. It takes some time until we feel secure in ourselves to open our heart again and let someone in again.
Always enjoy your videos. The clothes are beautiful, your style is timeless. I also love your interior colour schemes. The garden is beautiful. As for dating, sometimes when you stop looking the right one comes along. Hope your holiday is fab and you had a lovely rest x
Self teaching and learning is a pretty big talent! You are very inspirational! Thank you! The right one will come along when you least expect it! That's the beauty of love and life! Enjoy your vacay! Be safe!
You may say you aren't talented, but determination and loving to learn are the backbone of success. 🙂
I think that is something that people who are self employed tend to forget, that they also deserve a vacation! I hope you have/had a wonderful time! 🤩
When will people be okay with the colour they were born? You were beautiful just the way you were. There is nothing wrong with being fair skinned. It looks stunning on you. You have a wonderful look. Appreciate it and don't worry that you 'have to' have a tanned to be summery or vacationy. I am a fair skinned red head myself, and I have never felt the need to be anything else. Enjoy being your unique self.
What?
You have a gift of seeing style, color and pattern and putting it together. Plus you are a beautiful woman inside and out. Have a great vacation.
You are incredibly driven, motivated and tenacious. That is an amazing combination of fantastic traits. You are very independent! Have a great vacation.❤️
Hi. Love love love the curtains in your room❤❤❤
I get what you are saying, Elise 🤗However, I think your gifts are discipline, determination, tenacity, and work ethic. So on and so forth. I agree with you in that your gifts are not in the sense one would expect, let’s say as an artist, or a sculptor, etc… however, you have a gift of perseverance, despite your circumstances. You show us that you can do whatever you set your mind to. And at times yes, it may not be perfect. And that’s OK. That helps us to see that everything we do simply needs to bring us joy. And you bring us joy!
Intuition is a powerful gift, as I think of it as the ability to very quickly, subconsciously, synthesize information from many different sources. So, when you meet someone there are many social and physiological cues happening at once, and your intuition comes into play as that gut "yes" or "no". I fell in love at first sight with my partner, and we've been together 7 years now - there were so many practical things when we first met that should have gotten in our way, but my intuition was too strong to ignore.
Also, packing cubes are the best! Effortless organization when traveling. You can basically live out of your suitcase without feeling insanely stressed.
Very wise about pets. They are a huge responsibility if you want provide the best life for them. I don't understand peoples pet pressure. Almost like kid pressure.
I hope you’ve had great holidays, congratulations for putting up this video in advance - so organized 😮 also have fun with your projects back home, I hope the lemon tree is still happily producing fruits 😀
I agree with you completely on knowing in the first five minutes if things will go any further. And yes, it’s super hard when they like you and you don’t like them back. Dating is so hard.
People just need to be honest from the start and say what they want and need from a partner. If the person is still interested in meeting up then thats great and if not then that person wasn't right for you anyway. To much texting back and forth before meeting is a wast of time. See it as a job interview where the other person has to convince YOU to hire them🙂
I understand perfectly how you feel about a pet.😘
Elise you look lovely. I am so white I'm almost see through😂 There's no hope of me ever having a tan so I always fake tan before I go. I do mine myself at home and I take it with me so I am tanned all holiday. Just some tips for a flawless tan. The day before tanning exfoliate, shave and moisturise. Also avoid any products with citrus as this can effect the tan. Have a wonderful holiday.x
Yess!!
I just love ur hippie / bohemian vibes ❤
The brick wall. Glad you mentioned it as its crossed my mind a few times. Treat it with a matt varnish/proprietary protection before painting it any colour. Right now, you know what you want. In 5 years you might decide that you miss the warmth of its natural colour. Once painted without protection you'll never be able to strip it back. An extra expense in time/effort/money but one that you might be glad you did (or a new occupant) and it will do no harm if the change is permanent.
Just a hopefully helpful thought from my hyperactive brain. I hope you had a great holiday.
I too, am a frightening to men lady as I don't believe in getting a man in to do a job I enjoy. The best men appreciate working together. ;)
Some of the MOST BEAUTIFUL dresses I have ever seen!
No Elise..you are verrry Creative and talented..❤️💯😘
I hope that you have a wonderful time in Greece. I love your brick wall in your sitting room, but I know it is your home, and your choice what you do with it. Love to you from West Devon, England. xxx
I truly hope you had a great summer holiday in Greece! All the best, take care, stay safe, and plenty of success with your shop!
Hope you had fun on your trip. So great to have a good relationship with your sister.
Lovely video, thanks for sharing. ❤
Have a fabulous vacation in beautiful Greece with your sister. Take lots of photos and please share some with us.
You are so cute. Thank you for being vulnerable and sharing some more personal details about your life. I look up to you a lot, honestly. And you DO have talent. I feel very similarly. I always said “I am just mediocre at a lot of things, but not GOOD at any of them.” Lately I’ve embraced my best qualities and have been calling them talents. Your ability to decorate, to see colors and patterns, to put together outfits, run a business.. being KIND, being confident, being genuine and authentic, the ability to see beauty everywhere you go. I think your most used phrase is “that’s sooo beautiful”. That is a special gift, Elise. 💕
Hehe I love that's my most used phrase 😄😄🙈 thank you so much, that was so sweet! ❤️✨️
Hi Elise from beautiful Greece! I hope you had a wonderful time on your holiday here.❤️🥰
You look amazing for your vaca.. Enjoy every moment and be - safe....... Have fun!!!!!
Cant wait until we all see photos upin your return. 🌹
Happy that your taking time for a vacation, you deserve it and I know your going to enjoy it.🎉 Thank you for sharing Shabbat Shalom 🕊
I am surprised in modeling agency. Hasn’t snapped you up by now. You are uniquely beautiful and have a fun personality and Darlene grin. I think the fact that you have to work to learn a skill and that you don’t give up is more complementary then if something came easy to you. Have a wonderful vacation and remember that spray tans can be applied in the winter. Lol summer vibes always win.
i love the brick wall color as is. i would not lighten it. i live the united states and our brownstone buildings have brick walls and love it.
Hi from the USA, I just want u to know how much u inspired me with ur creation and being urself.. Stay strong and beautiful.. 🙏🏻🥰
Greece sounds good for you! Hope we get to see just a glimpse of the Greek countryside.
You are very talented in your artistic fashion sense. That is a gift, you have a beautiful style all your own . Don’t ever change. 😊
Sophie, is a very special friend.
We would love to see you together ,or at least do a show together.
What is your birthday?
Elise, you are the loveliest and most authentic person on UA-cam 💚 My fav!
The spray tan looks great! Of course your fair skin is beautiful too, but i totally understand wanting to look sunkissed fir certain occasions! Im also fair skinned, but i enjoy using a self tanning mousse in the summer and there's nothing wrong with that! Hope you have a fantastic vacation!
I'm also a red head and use fake tanner. I completely understand why you got one and I think it looks great on you! Nothing wrong with wanting to feel tan! Loved your video ❤
♡ Yes, all your videos are enjoyable! I hope you had a wonderful week off!
I agree with you about dating. I had been the same way. If there was not the possibility of a future, then why waste one another's time. When I met my now-husband, early in dating we went to a nice restaurant for lunch and we both told each other we had the other investigated, lol, we knew it was meant to be. ;) that may not be romantic to everyone, but to us it meant each was serious!
Be careful of spray tanning or tanning beds, but extra careful in too much sun.
your skin is beautiful.
Tan naturally is safer. Artifacts tan causes cancer
Elise,
You are inspiring and a wonderful
Example for girls and women.
I think you are very awesome.
You can achieve same results with self tanning at home for a fraction of the price… and you can be tanned all year round if this is what you want! Used to do this and it looked amazing ☺️ Happy vacation 🤍
I love the way you say mosquito!! I shall be saying it that way from now on. You are a strong independent woman and that in itself is a talent. You are an amazing roll model for young women 💜
Thaanks 🥰
I was wondering what happened to Luna, glad I found this particular video today. I’m glad she’s ok.
Good for you Elise. I am like you. I am much older but I am also a curious person and open to learning new things. WE can all learn something new and gain skills.
Everyone has something they are drawn to or have a knack for. Skills come from practice, from growing and from learning. All of us watching, we all have something we are interested in and we can all grow and learn skills. We just need to be brave and try something new on our own. Asking for help from friends is good too.
I definitely understand what you are saying about instant chemistry and interest. As soon as I saw and met my husband I knew it was right. We spent all of our free time together after that, engaged a year later and married the year after that...51 years ago!!
I hope vacation was great and you have lots of fun stories!
