seoul vlog 📹 hiking barefoot, hidden cafes, korean skincare routine, my apartment & life updates
I love the chill style of your vlogs. They’re much gentler on my brain and eyes than constant smash cuts and sound effects and zoom ins 😂
Hahahha thanks!!
Yes same! Nice and relaxing but engaging and never make me feel anxious like some other channels do.
Thats what i love about Cari's channel, i dont feel overwhelmed by the content being thrown at my face. Sometimes i just feeel so chill just putting her video and sound on in the background while doing some cooking haha
i'm currently living in korea as an exchange student and i'm absolutely obsessed with korea's obsession with cafes. they're such a vibe and so welcoming. the only issue is that they're open at like 11am and during the weekend i tend to like to go out much earlier than that lol but anyway~ thank you for another lovely vlog, cari 💞
Yeah its my least favorite thing 😭 i wish they’d open earlier!!
The barefoot walking is so funny to me. Ever since the pandemic, I started seen foreign tourists here in Mexico City walking barefoot around the city and was taken a little aback lol. To us locals, the street, the concrete is soo dirty, going barefoot would never be an option for us 😅. But in nature it seems way nicer
Yeah nature for sure but catch me NEVER doing that in most city streets hahhah
Totalmente de acuerdo jajaja
You could wash your feed afterwards…😊
Hello Cari, I've been following your videos for a long time, as well as on Instagram. Currently, I'm living in Spain, in a small village with only 2500 inhabitants, and I came here alone with my dog. While I'm very happy here, I make a lot of plans by myself because it hasn't been so easy for me to make friends. So, when I watch your videos, I feel very identified and happy to see you enjoying delicious things or exploring places on your own and being happy. Thank you for doing this. May you be very happy 🩷.
Hope you and your pup have happy adventures too 🥰🥰🥰
So happy to see that earthing/grounding is becoming a noticeable 'thing' in such a busy and developed capital like Seoul. I just started to dig into it earlier this year - watched a podcast interviewing Clint Ober who's known as a pioneer of this movement. It's fascinating stuff - so simple yet so vital (and something most of us urban dwellers are missing out on). Let me just quote from the book introduction ("Earthing" by Clint Ober):
"Put another way, your planet is a six sextillion (that's six followed by twenty-one zeroes) metric ton battery that is continually being replenished by solar radiation, lightning, and heat from its deep-down molten core. And just like a battery in a car that keeps the motor running and the wheels turning, so, too, do the rhythmic pulsations of natural energy flowing through and emanating from the surface of the Earth keep the biological machinery of global life running in rhythm and balance-for everything that lives on the land or in the sea. People. Animals. Fish. Plants. Trees. Bugs. Bacteria. Viruses.
Throughout history, humans have sat, stood, strolled, and slept on the ground without knowing that such simple contact transfers a natural electrical signal to the body. Only recently has the knowledge and significance of this connection been explored and explained by scientific experts in geophysics, bio-physics, electrical engineering, electrophysiology, and medicine. From them, we are learning that the Earth's electrical energy maintains the order of our own bodily frequencies just as a conductor controls the coherence and cadence of an orchestra. We all live and function electrically on an electrical planet. We are each of us a collection of dynamic electrical circuits in which trillions of cells constantly transmit and receive energy in the course of their programmed biochemical reactions... Your heart, brain, nervous system, muscles, and immune system are prime examples of electrical subsystems operating within your bioelectrical body. The fact is, all of your movements, behaviors, and actions are energized by electricity.
Most people, even in this scientific age, are totally unaware of their bio-electrical nature... So nobody knows that we have largely become disconnected and separated from the Earth. In developed societies, in particular, we have essentially lost our electrical roots. Our bare feet, with their rich network of nerve endings, rarely touch the ground. We wear insulating synthetic-soled shoes. We sleep on elevated beds made from insulating material... As an analogy, think of a lightbulb with a loose connection. The bulb flickers, shines weakly, or doesn't light up at all. Many people go through life with flickering or weak health.
...Electrons give the Earth's surface a natural, negative charge. They are present, as science informs us, in a virtually limitless and continuously renewed supply, fed by the natural phenomena of rain and thousands of lightning strikes per minute. Maintaining contact with the ground allows your body to naturally receive and become charged with these electrons. When thus "grounded," you automatically absorb them, which in turn reduces electrical imbalances in the body and the oxidative free radicals involved in chronic inflammation and multiple diseases. The body's natural electrical state is restored."
>> Just make sure to walk on grass, dirt, sand, etc. and not asphalt - and walk barefoot or with flip-flops/sport shoes that are designed with 'conducting strips' that enable electron flow (I for one am squeamish about walking barefoot on grass/soil in the tropical climate I'm living in, so I have 'Grounders' flip-flops for that). Thanks for bringing this to our attention, Cari!
Hey cari, your videos have been a source of great comfort for me especially now that I am preparing for a very big examination in my country. days have been rough but I'm fighting through it, thank you for your videos. You inspire me to continue to live my life and hope for the future
Wishing you so much luck!!
Watching you before you walked barefoot on the clay, and then afterward... I don't know if you realized it, but while you were apprehensive before you did it, you were definitely more mellow, calmer and seemed at peace the last part of the video after your walk on clay. And that's with you packing for a trip! You weren't your usual tense, wound-up-Cari-getting-ready-for-a-trip self. I think it definitely did something to/for you! Have a safe and fun trip!
☺️☺️☺️
i’ve been a follower of yours for around 2 years and i just wanna say you are such an inspiring person for me ❤ hope you’re having a good day sending love and good vibes 😁😁😁
Oh my goodness 🥹 thank you!
I literally met a good friend of mine at a party and the reason we became such good friends was because I started talking about your Crave videos and it turned out she was also a huge fan of yours.
Just wanted to let you know you're bringing bookworms together lol. Lots of love ❤
omfg that crave magic bringing people together i LOVE it hahahaha
I always lose my mind at how absolutely fluffy Louie is 😭 I just wanna cuddle him ❤
Hi Cari, I’m a usually silent but faithful viewer and just wanted to say I LOVE you and your vlogs so much 🥹 praying for you and Kirk and I am so thankful to have found you here!
Thank you so much!! Kurt and I had a wonderful trip 🤍
Love how you film.🌳🌳🍁 Beautiful. Have a safe and fun trip home. Looking forward to seeing Louie.🤗💐💕💕
Thank you so much!!
It's so interesting that even though I live in Seoul and have walked in almost every place you've been almost same time, your perspective on hot places and Korean traditions is very unique. I was like, 'Oh yes, there was such a place I've been to.' I think it's because of your filming skills? I don't know. I mean your video was good.
The taste in music is just immaculate
🥹🥹🥹
Wow ,that’s right on time. Thanks for making such an amazing content, now I’m gonna enjoy my time 🥹💕💕
thanks so much!!!
Yay, a Cari video! I needed this after the awful week I had. Hope your trip home is going well and you're enjoying the launch to spooky season!
noooo hope the awful week was just the universe balancing out the excellent week coming your way soon!
Trees , pastry, friends and Louie, lovely video. I'm always barefoot in the forest until snow . 66 f is my perfect temp.
Agreed - mid70s and up is too hot haha
Loved the music in this video! Thanks for sharing your life with us
I love your vlogs so much. They’re so chill and calming. It’s like lofi for my eyes.
This is one of your calmest packing videos EVER!
Right?! Hahahha
I love your music selection!
Thank you!!
Love your vloggs always Cari ❤❤❤
Your videos make me feel so nostalgic for Korea even though I have never been (yet!). Safe travels in the US and back to Korea!
Love the clay trail! What a fun idea. The scenery is absolutely gorgeous. The cafes the green nature walks, the yummy food. I may have to go to Korea one day! That is my idea of fun!
Great timing Cari for your video & crazy that in this video you were catching a cold, I’m recovering from a sinus infection here at home in LA. 🤧😷. Thank for taking us with you in your journey. God-willing I’ll travel to Korea one day
Loving the music in this vlog! Great video ❤️
🥰🥰🥰
hope you enjoyed your last days of Korean summer + nice vlog Cari, 10/10❤❤❤
Thank you!!
It’s always v satisfying to see the clips transition on the beat of the music ☺️
☺️☺️☺️
I'm so happy to be getting into fall 🍁. Hope things are going well Cari 🙌
Thank you 🍂🍁🥮
Another Sunday, with the lovley Cari ❤
thank youuuu :'')
@@caricakes Love youre Vlogs :D
Being a barista in seoul is the dream, there aren’t that many good Cafés im cologne so the few that do exist are always crowded
Yeah its nice in Seoul that if you find a crowded cafe you can walk a few minutes and find a not crowded one 😂
I love your vlogs so much! I've been watching your vlogs every week for over a year now! I love that you notice all the little things. Thank you so much for you channel!
🥹🥹🥹 thank you!!
Here comes the best season of the year ~~~
🥮🍁🍂🤍
I love lazy Sunday morning with your new video 🥨
Hope you have lovely days with your family 💖
Sending love, from Busan 🌊🥺
Thank you!!!
Excited that I can see videos right when they come out now that I live in Japan!!!
wahhh hope you're settling in well^^
11:50 - 11:53 is a great shot, really puts me there and encapsulates a lot
🥰🥰🥰
Visiting Seoul from Vegas this coming week. Thank you so much for the great videos
I wanna say i learned lot from your videos rather than just enjoying. So happy to see your vlogs. And your earrings were so pretty. I love it 🧚♀️ waitting for your next videos. 🩷
Thank you so much 🥹
Hope you had a lovely holiday with your family 🌕
Thank you 🤍🤍
I was watching the clock go round like a hawk waiting for the video..... yayyie 🎉
Bdw my current read is One For My Enemy 🌹 you sold this book to us pretty darn well 😅
omg i hope you enjoy it :')
Sure i'm ✌️
Louie!!!! Love seeing the doggie :) Also, so true with jeans as jeans can be weird. Better to get a bigger size and be comfortable! Hope you're having a wonderful trip in the US
💯 and thank you!!
Yes. "Grounding" it's so good once in a while 😊
going to have to do it more often!!
Cheers to not stressing about packing!
Thanks 😂😭😂😭
Lovely vlog Cari ❤ As a fellow American living abroad I hope you have the best best time at home and enjoy your time with loved ones and also visiting your favorite places 😊 💕
Thank you 🥹🥹🥹🥹
Your videos are so healing~ I'm so thankful my friend introduced me to your channel, and now I have something to look forward to every week
wahhh thank you to you and your friend hehe
It's October 8th and 28C as I write this... I desperately want the last days of summer to be the LAST days but here we are.
Loved the vlog, specially the footage outside the plane, for some reason that was highly calming to me.
Yeah it was 28 here in the US last week and i was like WHY 😭😭😭
girl...i just love you and your videos. the thing you mentioned about jeans one size bigger, i actually had that enlightenment this year and just threw away most of my before-covid-jeans and purchased bigger ones. Now I don't feel dread each time i want to wear jeans....simple but i guess we all have that little voice inside that insists we can/should still fit in the same pair of jeans from 100 years prior....as if bodies never change....(and i am already on the small side...can still wear a lot of my school shirts...).
when i go to seoul again, watching your vlogs for inspo will be the FIRST thing i do
I thought the persimmon was a green apple, lol. Also i love your desk! The one on the background, not where you sit now. It has a unique shape, ansd i like the wood tone. Also barefoot in cconcrete gives me shudders but barefoot in sand or grass? 10/10. I miss having a garden so much
I love you citing 22 degrees as turn off AC weather. Where I am in UK it was 22 degrees and everyone’s been wearing shorts and talking about how great the Indian summer is
Haha yeah we noticed that this summer in the UK! But in the US we encourage people not to use the term indian summer because of its racist meaning - try just saying “the uk is hell” hahahhahah
Hi Cari! I really love your vlogs, they really made me dream of visiting Seoul and one of those cafés with such a chill vibe and delicious pastries!! It so happens that I will be having and 8 hours layover there in 3 weeks and I was wondering if you would recommend getting out of the airport and if yes, what would you recommend seeing in such a short time? Thank you and keep up the great vlogs 😊
8 hours is pretty tight but you could technically take your bags, get the train to seoul station, and walk around there for a bit! Or taking the slower train to Hongdae Station and walking there! Im just nervous about flying so im not the best to ask ahahha
Thank you for your quick response 😊 you are right about being cautious, I hope we’re not over ambitious as to lose our connecting flight 😅
I love you video’s ❤
Thank you!!
Congratulations on not using th air con anymore!!!!!! SOOO envious! We're still in the middle of an indian summer in paris T_T I have to wait for next week to get rid of my fan!
Oh nooo! And here in the US we’re encouraging dropping the term indian summer due to its racist meaning so we now just say “this weather SUCKS” 😂😮💨 hope it gets better!
@@caricakes Never heard of it! Thank you for letting me know
Cariiiiii can we get a skin care routineAM & PM in the next videos? Your skin is always so pretty! I need to know all of your secrets >
Wahh thank you! I’ll try hehe
i love Cari's obsession with the barefoot walkers mystery lol, but on another note -thank you Cari for these vlogs they literally brighten my day
😂 and thank YOU!
i've been having the same great experience of buying pants one or two sizes bigger just so they're extra comfy, and it's wild how yeah in the mirror/on camera it just looks like i'm wearing jeans that fit WELL, such a reminder that it's easy to just get used to jeans being too tight and thinking that's normal 😅
🙌🙌🙌
I didn’t know you were from NJ. Hi, neighbor! And my corgi is named Louie, so we’re basically twins 😊 I started watching because you look and remind me so much of my daughter who is currently teaching in Japan and I miss her so much!!!
We need a coffee to watch Cari's videos....❤
🥰
Had to pause to say that it's a constant battle to get my husband to not work as well. It's also a constant struggle to not have him feel guilty any time he's not working (cause we live in a capitalistic society etc etc). He's working on that unhealthy mentality and I'm doing my best to help him on this, uh, journey.
Exactly 😭 good luck to all of us!
There are many like him but there can only be one LOUIE
exactly 🥹🥹🥹
The best barefoot girl on youtube
😂😂😂
I’m also sick right now and was feeling so miserable about it until you said “it’s a good sign because it means the seasons are changing” and it magically made me feel better 🥲 Thank you so much!
Wow, that barefoot hike was nice! 🌿 Would love to do that as well
😮.. hopefully .. I can travel justlike this place...soon..
Silent..and relaxing❤
Hey! Two qs, would you ever do a live around visiting SK or Seoul? I have loads of qs! And also, wouldn’t the bare foot walking be a bit risky for health? Not saying Korea isn’t clean as it looks clean everywhere but I don’t think I’d walk bare foot in my country either 🇬🇧
Actually this clay was being brought in that day and they had a big crew keeping it wet and walking around with leaf blowers to get any sticks out of the way so this particular spot was really looked after hahaha and you mean a live stream? timing is hard but I will definitely try to do a q&a sometime soon!!
@@caricakesohh interesting, sounds very efficient then. Sorry, yes a live stream, I see what you mean though as choosing a time to go live might be difficult as I am sure you have viewers everywhere 🙂
Hi cari!! But will you be doing a past lives review??
Earthing is healing 🧧📚🥑
☺️
Have a great trip. Take care
Thank you!
👋🏻❤🇫🇮. I hope you have a lovely visit at home😊.
I think by the end this month autumn is going to be gone here. Yesterday (saturday) here where i live snowed little bit❄. And it's been raining so much last couple weeks, will last until middle november or even more propably until snow stay on the ground & it's cold. And when full winter is finally here it's going be until march - may.🙈😂
Omg not all the way to may 😂😭😭😭
@@caricakes yes i have pictures taken 29.april of this year and we still have 20-30cm snow🙈😂. And at the beginning of April there was still almost a meter of snow.
Your vlogs are literally asmr for me with the peaceful relaxing music, everything you talk about and show us.
Thank you ❤
🥰🙏🥰🙏
Those ginkgo trees are pretty but when the leaves fall and fruits it smells a day old gym clothes in high school locker rooms
😂😂😂
Weather update from Bangladesh,
Today is sunny like the last 3 days it was gloomy and rainy and a bit cold but today it's sunny. I picked up vespertine, I was like the weather is perfect to read it. I'm still gonna red it cuz I have like 10% to finish it but, the weather is not weathering with me☹️
Hope you get a gloomy day to finish it hahhah
Huge spiders, yeah that's a no from me😱 "Lookin for feet now"😂
Yeah the summer spiders in korea are noooo joke
Cari what camera do you use? Do you have any camera recs? I want to buy one hehe
Iphone12!!
The best barefoot lady in the world~!
😂😂😂
재미있게 놀다 가여
Those baristas who told people to get quieter would have a nervous breakdown in Balkan cafes lol.
Hi!!! 💛
👋👋👋
Come visit Arizona some time ♡ 😊
I am from Turkey and some people walk on dirt here too! It is for grounding and releasing toxic energy to earth I guess :) Whenever we are in our village my dad takes his shoes of and walks barefoot. It is probably just a silly belief bu it is fun
I love it!!

I’m still curious, what was your take of Past Lives? I’ve been wanting to watch it since the trailer first came out.
I loved it! I think people hyped it up a bit too much so i was expecting my mind to be BLOWN but it was a beautiful heartbreaking film!
Actually walking barefoot is good for your feet - it releases muscle and ligaments tension, but you need to walk on something bouncy (definitely not asphalt or concrete), hence - clay.
This clay is also famous for releasing toxins! Its called hwangto in korean!
It’s called “earthing”
Its called both grounding and earthing! Interchangeable!
where did you get those denim shorts? they are like the perfect baggy fit. Please let me know :')
I got them from an online shop over a year ago so sadly i don’t remember 😭😭😭
❤❤❤
^____^
I don't know if these people walking barefoot do it because grounding thing or because it's supposed to be healthy for your feet. It was thing here (Finland) couple years ago. Walking barefoot is supposed to strenghten your feet and be good for balance or something (not expert here 😅). There is actual barefoot shoes which are supposed to give benefits of barefoot walking with some defence against rocks and stuff on the ground.
Thats a separate thing here in Korea! There are lots of paths with stones of different sizes to help you balance. We actually have one on the roof of our apartment building hahha this was for getting rid of the toxins in your body 🤍
I absolutely love walking barefoot, but I know I would slip and fall flat on my ass in the red mud 😂
There were some treacherous spots 😂😂
but..... we need to know what happened to the persimmon?
😂 i passed them to a friend who could eat them later
Why is Louie just so adorable!! What breed is he?
were you able to get to eat the persimmon? 🤭

I settle for barefoot shoes. I slowly started chaning shoes 3 years ago and now I only wear bf shoes. Can recommend. In the city and for work you can't have bare feet so this is great
❤
❤❤❤
3:23 where is this please? Visiting in a few days with kids (one in a pram) so would be great to find a pram friendly nature walk! Thanks so much
I always link everything in my description box 🤍
Hi, wat song u use? Nice song, in the beginning…name the song? Thank u! 😉…🙏🏼
Re: the feeling that jeans don't fit right after Summer.... I feel like I always have this after not wearing jeans for a while, because I'm just not used to the whole leg being covered and having something tight around the thights/stomach, but then after a week or so it feels normal again 😂
i have a tv recommendation for you!! “Our Flag Means Death” it’s produced by Taika Waititi and it’s about pirates and it’s goofy and gay and beautiful and also not too long!! i promise it will HOOK you
Hahahahaha
Did u move to Korea?
I've lived in Korea for almost 10 years hahaha
Can you talk about your experience getting botox in Korea? thanks
See my last video! I have never gotten botox lol
Selamat siang mbaku kekasihku sayang dan ❤️❤️ c i n t a k u untukmu sayangku.
