This is a combination of feeling homesick and nostalgia for a life I’ve never known. Art in its purest form.
Beautifully said. 😃💕🙏
anemoia - n. nostalgia for a time you’ve never known
Imagine stepping through the frame into a sepia-tinted haze, where you could sit on the side of the road and watch the locals passing by. Who lived and died before any of us arrived here, who sleep in some of the same houses we do, who look up at the same moon, who breathe the same air, feel the same blood in their veins-and live in a completely different world
@@jadew4677 that is very interesting! I have never heard of the Anemoia before, but that makes perfect sense. The video within the website nailed it.
Could not have said it better myself
Lovely comment :) such a strange feeling that is, and yet it makes perfect sense at the same time.
Paola, I am 73-according to my daughter, old. Maybe just an old soul. On these winter mornings, I put your lovely messages on to stream as I have my pot of jasmine tea and wait for the sun to rise. My dear, you do me only good. Thank you. Bless you. Sandy
Sandy you are beautiful & amazing I know what you mean I love my gentle life now Iam retired just to sit is beautiful 🙏 bless you 🌸
This is so sweet! Giving all my love to you!
this is so sweet omg
i hope you live a long life
You are lucky to have lived so long. I wish to do so too❤️
I recently moved to a rural area on an off-grid property. I made that decision after realizing during quarantine that my industry job and the luxuries in the city were not the end-all-be-all for my life. I am learning so much about myself and my environment. It’s great to see that there are others out there who have already made the transition and are enjoying it!
Congrats on that! That's my goal in 5 years time. Want a build or buy a tiny home with plenty of acres. What a beautiful dream!
what do you do for a living? I'm interested in off-grid/homesteading too.
@@waltervega8730 I highly encourage it! Its an accessible dream too. I used to live in a very densely populated metropolitan area and the starting prices of homes there were very high. We never thought we could afford it. It took about 6 months of looking in small towns to finally find something we could comfortably sustain and if I could tell myself anything back 6 months ago it would be to not get discouraged. I wish you the best of luck!
@@LuisaH2022 I work remotely for a tutoring service and my fiancé and I work odd jobs here and there to get extra cash. Our bills are comparably not substantial as all our utilities are covered by the off-grid set up! Our ultimate goal however is to start a small market farm stand/business. :)
Many of today's professions are home friendly, making a move like yours very doable. I assume you're using your own means to make electricity, a process that is both fully sustainable and more reliable.
So congratulations. I think you are in for a very rewarding existence.
People who say she is living the Beatrix potter life - that is right. You embody her spirit and goals: Beatrix potter was a conservationist and protector of one of the most beautiful regions of england, the lake district. She was a rich woman, and chose to spend her wealth buying swathes of countryside, protecting it from development for evermore, while living a simple farmhouse life herself. I am always grateful to her and others like her as i wander over the great protected Fells. This work is as hard as it is important 🍃🌱
thank you for the love you give your world
when you said the lake district and for evermore i remembered the songs of taylor swift "the lakes" & "evermore"
You give me Ms. Honey from the movie "Matilda" vibes 🐝
Omgosh I was just thinking that beautiful teacher ;)
She gives me Miss Muriel Stacy from the series "Anne with an E" vibes
Nightly I play your videos for my youngest to calm him before Nightly slumber. He's Non-verbal Autistic & likes the calming nature of your voice as well as the nature that living in the country brings such peacefulness to his face. We also live in a wooden countryside ❤
Oh how lovely to hear that - my cousin is also non-verbal Autistic. I’m glad to know it is calming for him, that is something I will cherish in my heart 🤍
You are truly a blessing is this world of madness.

My son is autistic also. I should try this. He hates loud noise but this may help as he loves listening to piano music. Me and my wife are thinking of moving out to countryside for him. Always scared for him when we don’t exist in this world to protect him. 😔
I also forgot to mention that it's so refreshing for you to speak on how this magical American Beatrix Potter lifestyle doesn't come for free. You still work and it took intention and conscious effort to make such a move, and I'm sure it has it's tiny downsides sometimes. I just wanted to thank you for not hiding the reality of your beautiful life!
Thank you! Yes it’s been a journey of accepting a bit of risk and working to make ends meet every month, especially my first year here. I’ve grown so much in the process that I really wanted to touch on that fact. Yes there are downsides, and sometimes I get so frustrated with them, but in the end I remember why I came. Thank you for your lovely comment and being so kind and thoughtful 🤍
@@TheCottageFairy Thank you for your honesty, care + beautiful spirit. Health + success to you from West Africa 🌿💚
Nothing is perfect :D
I love how you speak about the environment. The connection humans have with nature really is a relationship; it can have it's ups and downs; but the more love and care we give to nature, the more love and care it will give to us, both physically and spiritually. It seems like that is the relationship you have with your environment - so that even if you don't live in that physical house forever, the lessons you learned and the peace you found there has lead it to being your spiritual home :)
Also, that raspberry and rose green tea looked so delicious I could almost smell it's sweet and earthy aroma through the screen! I'll have to try my best at making it myself, I think!
Thank you for your lovely comment! Yes there are definitely ups and downs, but I keep trying to learn and be better everyday, and it’s so healing and uplifting for me - yes, I absolutely feel like nature gives back to your spirit! How beautifully you worded that. I remember an indigenous woman saying once “if you love your garden, it will love you back”
And yes that tea smells so amazing! The taste is yummy but the aroma just makes you feel amazing! 🤍
We need more people like her in this earth
Thanks UA-cam for recommending me this beautiful video. Such a life
Nyasar kesini bang haha
She is just obsessed with "When Calls the Heart" series. Nothing else!
Me too! :)
Me too
Dont waste your time watching her, Instead! Improve your life, walk, read, be social. There are millions of comments which she dont even response. Get a life!
i would never be lonely to live here. there are just people who are much happier to live a quiet life.
“it’s not easy.” I think it’s not just that you live in a beautiful place, but that you appreciate its beauty instead of being upset about all the work and issues associated with it. Thanks for sharing your magical videos and wise perspective.
Ah, thank you, I appreciate that 🤍 yes it’s so easy to focus on what’s wrong around me instead of what little things I can do to make it right. I do my best, it really helps to step back often and just marvel at the beauty ❤️
Isn't it best to purposefully live the grateful life? To be thankful every moment for what we have, not just physically but socially, professionally, emotionally, & intellectually. rather than being unhappy about all it is we either don't have or have not attained?
@@lakemichigan6598 So true. I think it is gratitude that leads to happiness. It isn’t easy to always realize that we have so much, but we can always try 😌
@@nehainthebay It's difficult to be angry when you're feeling grateful.
And yes I agree, a high level of gratitude makes for a happier life.
I am half Alaskan Eskimo, Inuit. Seeing you use my people’s knife, the ulu, touches my heart ♥️
I was wondering what type of knife it was! it's very beautiful
@@kathleenwelsh9301quyanaq/ thank you :)
@isi nark hoping you're not being serious! It's just a useful tool.
@isi nark the person literally said that they appreciated it lol what
What a wonderful thing to say...✨💛✨
It's like Narnia where and how you choose to live. Breathtaking & so soothing.
Simply beautiful. Thanks for sharing
Living in the mountains of northern BC Canada, away from all the crowds myself, it is good to see that some young people are on such a peaceful path, returning to their natural roots. My compliments to your style of making movies; rhetorically and didactically they are perfect. Your pupils are lucky to have such a good teacher! Keep up the good work!
Oh, that's beautiful. I dream every day of living in a place like this, I live in a city surrounded by industries, it's suffocating. I'm glad to know that there are people like you who care for and give so much love to places like this.
I hear you! I'm a city dweller and getting pretty tired of it! Longing for tranquility like this. And I know it wont be all easy or without sacrifices..
Thank you, I appreciate hearing that 🤍 I know you will find the right place for your spirit in your own time and way 🙏 -
I have friends who live in the city that are incredible change makers in bringing awareness to nature and visualizing a greener form of city life. I feel like they show incredible love for the earth that way as well ❤️ but then some spirits thrive elsewhere, like myself
Thank you for your lovely comment, sending good wishes to you!
Actually. very beautiful
Alexsandra come to my village! You are welcome!
I was led to your channel a few days ago as autumn has arrived and seeking simplicity. I am a highly sensitive person and introvert. The state of society with so much action and busy-ness drains me. I am grateful for your simplistic yet profound presence. Thank you for sharing your journey of peace that soothes our soul. Thank you for mirroring back to me the time to slow down and just "be" Only finding your channel a few days ago, I find myself already becoming calm and my actions are more simplistic and gentle to allow the beauty of present to be witnessed by the heart and spirit
Highly sensitive and a introvert is what I am too.. but are you ever misunderstood.. I am only yesterday someone called me miserable because I find others draining.. be interested if you've ever experienced similar..
@@hayleycharles5332 Yes, i have always been misunderstood, from a very young age. I have also been told I look miserable. I am not miserable, I am just in deep thought which comes across differently. I have finally given myself permission to be totally me and authentic. I am made the way I am for a reason. The right people will surround me in understanding. And those who don't I am just reflecting back to them their true nature :) Sending you much love dear kindred spirit
@@shellystrank6633 thank you. We do have to be true to ourselves. We are confident people who are happy with our own thoughts and company. We are not weird.. take care n stay safe x
@@shellystrank6633 i'm the same, I've been told to cheer up many times (me not being unhappy) and usually from drunk people.
You are simply smart. You probably look at things, people, events perhaps think about it. That’s called being thoughtful but certainly not measurable. We are surrounded by pointless noises. One of the reasons I am looking into moving to places that are peaceful🦋
Your artistic camera work angles, editing, and detailed close-ups are really wonderful. Since your videos are so calming and serene, they has helped me so much with the stress in my life. Thank you for sharing!
Yes, I could not get over your ''mind's eye'' clarity for angling, editing, and detail necessity as it pertains to each capture. The patience you must have and longing for the simple things in nature you surround yourself with is extremely present in every served shot! Your purpose could not be better presented, ma'am. You are living your fullest life far above and ahead of any human being I have ever known... : )
My day was just made so much better by experiencing this video. This person is so enlightened, blessed, and sets a wonderful example of the importance of being connected with life, nature and the beautiful world all around us.
I feel the same way❤
Please be safe and keep your location secret and off the internet.
Very true
True....more power to you💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝happy New Year 2021.
What do you mean by closing internet? I mean why!
@@MA-by4dq
Closing of the internet, does not mean cut of internet. This person wanted to point out, that she should not put her contact adress on internet. So, nobody can find her, who has negative intentions, or harras her.

Your videos are simply amazing!
Agreed - her artistry is breathtaking!!!
I agree!!! ♡♡♡ Love them!

Hello Everyone!
Also, I forgot to add that you dry the orange slices in a dehydrator or oven!! I recommend adding some drops of cinnamon and orange extract to the decor craft I made to give it a lovely scent!

Thanks for the idea of what you did with the orange slices. I have some on hand that I’m now going to try to make something similar ♥️
is it weird that I feel like crying just from watching this?
It's not that the video is sad or anything. But the feeling of jealousy mixed with admiration. You are such a brave person for doing this. I know a lot of people including myself, who simply unable to throw away money and opportunity for the sake of spiritual fulfillment. You and your videos are amazing!
me too. just feeling like crying every time i watch these videos
I cried omg
Mas.. aku juga sama :')
Me too !
Yeah, pretty weird if you're a man.
I could listen to that voice all day....
Ive lost count of how many of your videos ive watched this evening.
I moved full time from the city to my mountain home with my 4 horses and 2 dogs. I did this in March during the pandemic to escape all the craziness of the big city. I love the tranquility and the beauty of the landscape.
Oh wow! What an expedition, how exciting for you! Yes, we got an influx of people moving permanently into their vacation homes in March - we are so grateful to have those empty homes full with people interacting with our community now and helping it thrive. It’s wonderful ❤️
Snow has a magical way of transforming the landscape. I look forward to it every year. Thank you for sharing some serenity with us.
Your videos bring me so much peace
Aw! I’m so glad to hear that 🤍
Hello Anna, how are you doing
My family and I love the rain! Something about it is soothing to our souls. Love your videos. Thank you for sharing with us. Take care.
I'm a city boy, and this is the life I dream of.
Even me...I dont like crowded cities where life sucks...countryside and rural life is what God made us for.
I genuinely feel at peace after watching these videos almost like I am there.
Oh! I’m so glad to hear that ❤️
Actually. very beautiful
@@TheCottageFairy not your family member father mother sister brother? ???
I cried.. 🥺 I couldn't help it. The city life has robbed us of our souls, and we're only aware of that once we enter the land of nature.
I cried too 😢
I feel like there's a message to be taken in the fact that you already traveled when you were young. For example, I spent 12 years traveling the world right out of highschool. When I came back I did the typical pattern of working overtime for years, building credit, saving money for a down payment when I realized that my soul calling wasn't to establish myself in society, but to live as a natural born person in a natural world. The message I take, and that other people should consider is that you sometimes need to go through your bucket list before you are truly ready to settle into your peace. You have to see for yourself that there's nothing in the civilized world that has more value than sentimental value. That being a consumer while playing a role is baseless. I think alot of psychological/spiritual work has to be accomplished beforehand to undue all of your programming. You could have easily lived your life without anyone knowing your story. But by sharing it, people who are meant for the same path find support and encouragement. The old cliche of uneducated, unwelcoming mountain folk doesn't hold anymore. I know of many people who have made the move and who are living off grid in a relatively comfortable, financially feesable manner.
True words. Just FYI, it’s undo, not undue.
Between the outfits, cooking, home, and drawing skills and basically your whole aesthetic, I feel like in a movie you'd be a manic pixie dream girl in a plot where some city cold hearted business man gets in a plane crash and wakes up in the woods then finds your cottage. Then in the movie he'd fall in love with you bc you teach him to be less selfless or something
She’s too peaceful and calm to be a MPDG!
I hate these scripts as they are horribly unrealistic. Cold hearted people very rarely change.
Uau! Daria um livro entanto seu pensamento
Its is nice to know that I am to some extent feeling what you feel and touching what you touch, So often folks do not understand this desire or need to be in and part of nature. Your way of life was one I wanted to adopt once but so many events got in the way. Thank you for reminding me that there are others whose life is more in experiencing and not just rushing around doing.
I'm so grateful for who you are. Really 🧚🏼♀️❤🌿
Oh, you are so kind. That is such a sweet thing to say, thank you 🤍 I will cherish it
Oh how I enjoy your channel! I’m 16 and actually half Puerto Rican too and I live in a mountain village in the Rockies. I love crafting and art and also I make miniature furniture!! ❤️you have inspired me even more and my dream is to grow up and live like this. Anyways 🤣I get so excited for your videos they’re so wonderful !!!💕

A 3 season porch, with glass door where I can sit covered with a blanket, or watch from my kitchen window the birds....my Spirit Bird is the Cardinal this connects me with my family who have all passed. I seek a quiet life, filled with just a few friends, my wonderful cat Chachi, books, music, cooking and crafting.

Recently my husband and I moved out of the big city and across the country to a smaller town in the Canadian Rockies. We've been here for only a week and already my soul feels lighter.
Which town?
@@M64936 Kelowna
@@MeiKasai lol, you must have come from wayy back East from a very big big big city indeed to refer to the city of Kelowna as a "smaller town in the Canadian Rockies."! The much higher Canadian Rockies are a completely different Mtn range sort of "back east" a bit themselves, (east of Cranbrook and Golden BC) compared to here in the Okanagan. Anyways I won't keep nitpicking, and I know what you mean. Compared to say, Toronto or Montreal, Kelowna kind of could feel like a small town, I imagine. I'm a bit south of you, btw. The whole region is mindblowing in so many ways, isn't it? Welcome to the Okanagan, and enjoy it!
🍒🍎🍇 🌳😃☁️🌞🌲🍇🍎🍒
@@WizardlyDanny Eh, as long as you got what I meant. I'm definitely still learning the region. Yeah, I moved from Toronto so to me Kelowna is small lol. I absolutely love it here. Such a wonderful place to live and the people are so welcoming and lovely! Thanks for the welcome :)
@@MeiKasai You're indeed welcome! You have so much to look forward to - the mild winters, explosion of bright flowers in the early springs here, and the summer abundance of fruit, wine, trails and so on. Btw I recommend the quiet paved backroad on the W side of the lake northwards thru Fintry, for country drives. 🌳🌲😃🌲🌳
I love your videos, you've inspired me so much.
My partner owns a castle-like structure in rural AZ and he has always wanted to move out there and become self sufficient. The idea always sounded great to me in theory but on a deeper level I've always been a bit unsure about it. Seeing how beautifully and peacefully you live makes me feel more confident in the decision to ultimately move out there. I'm a writer and am very interested in herbs and gardening so I'm sure I would be able to keep very busy in that setting.
You have definitely become a role model to me. Thank you!
Oh! What an exciting possibility - yes depending on how rural you are it takes a some work but can be so rewarding too, I am very at peace here after a period of adjustment. I’m not off grid so it’s a bit easier for me, but I’m definitely open to that someday with the help of my bf. Either way, the experience would be such a fascinating one! Best wishes and good luck! 🤍
I am watching your videos before bedtime, to calm me down and put me in nice dreams
You make such beautiful and meaningful videos which are really an art to be admired in of themselves. You go girl for being brave and following the cries of your heart to go where you needed to be. 💕💕
her voice is sooo calming
thank you so much for showing me that this way of life is possible - your channel is really lovely. It can be stressful as a student feeling forced to think towards a future of making money, being in the city, making connections, living in a big capitalist rush...etc. knowing that this is a real and achievable way of living is so refreshing and I thank you from the bottom of my heart that you show it in such a beautiful way. I am so glad that more and more people are valuing simple living and now I know that my dreams and aspirations are not unrealistic in such a fast-paced, modern age. love and appreciation x
Just the video I was hoping for! I’m having a very stressful day and your videos give me such peace and serenity. Thank you!
Oh that makes me happy to know, and I hope your day gets better! 🤍 sending hugs
This is world class picture with powerful message to mankind, we must stand and protect the natures...
it's wonderful seeing people who care. you know, taking care of their pets, enjoying nature and helping nature. I wish more people are like you.
It's hard to move out of our comfort zone but sometimes life has this way of throwing things at you that will push you out of your habits, rather you want it or not. For me, this pandemic was a blessing. This past 20 years I've been living in a big city, which quickly became one of the country's hot spot for the virus, so I packed everything and moved back in the semi-countryside to my hometown where my parents and childhood friends still live. Without the pandemic I doubt I would have ever made the move, and now that it's done I wonder why I haven't done it years ago. Everything is quieter here, and simpler. I can see my parents 3x a week rather than 3x a year. The seasons are harsh but living in sync with nature is so less stressful. All of this to say : to anyone reading this, if you're hesitating to make the big move to a simpler and closer-to-nature life, DO IT. It will always be a good idea!
Wow, that was a magical Narnia moment. So peaceful a slice of heaven. Thank you for sharing your intentional style.🌹
Aw!
I thought of Narnia too when I saw the snow! I was afraid including the reference would confuse people. Glad to find someone who thinks similarly, I thought I could just glimpse the white witch through the trees! ✨✨✨❄️best wishes

This is so magical how you captured Mother Nature in her most beautiful simplicity!

Beautifully made video. I've recently watched all your videos and became a subscriber after one of your videos brought me to tears. I am 19 and I go to school full time and work 40 hour weeks. My life is NON stop. This video made me stop, and realize that being busy is really not fulfilling. Im working on slowing down, but its hard... Im hoping I can learn more from your videos, thank you.
Oh my heart goes out to you - at 19 I was working and studying too, it was a stressful time in my life, looking back on it’s amazing I got through it. In my case, things got drastically easier after I graduated. The experience taught me the importance of keeping my physical and mental health in check 🤍
But my goodness, 40 hours a week! That would be so hard to balance with school! I’m glad we could connect through these videos, I hope you are able to take good care of yourself. Sending hugs and encouragement ❤️

Hello
This is my dream!!😍😍 I used to live grew up in the country and I miss it!!😭😭 there was a farm across the street and we were on 5 acres on a hill with a beautiful view of the mountains yet we were 15 minutes away from town so we my city is small I lived north of it out on the ridge my dream is to move back!! On the ridge you’ve inspired me I’ll save up get land and build a little cottage like you🥰
Hello pretty nice comment beautiful is seen in your eyes at this very age. Can we be friends
Country road... take me home, to the place I belong.
Hello from Russia, your nature is amazing, like our one.
MARIA LOVE YOU - FROM SLOVENIA
I don’t know , but when you were walking in the rain I started to cry. I felt very moved. Maybe it was because I felt envy I don’t know. 👍🥰
That kind of peacefulness is just... lacking, overall, in the world right now, isn't it?
I also had a revelation in my heart when the rain was shown on video - of how wonderful it is to just be outside and allow the rain to fall without umbrella or complaining about this inconvenience. Rainy days are beautiful!
@@arp5843 I remember when I was little my mom would let me go out and play in the rain. It's one of the best things I remember.
A lot of people cry watching her videos. Including me. I wonder what's going on there?
@@sarainventura Her videos are soothing. Perhaps it is a release of anxiety and a longing for nature.
I feel comfortable when I watch your video. Thank u!!
I love your videos. They are so peaceful & calming. I love watching them right before bed as it helps me relax & at the same time inspires me. Thank you for sharing.
Loooved seeing the snow falling, we don't get alot of that here in Australia. We don't get alot of that here in Australia especially in my state. But in saying that about a month ago we had a cold week due to a polar cold snap and it was so cold one day that we got a small dusting of snow up in the Adelaide Hills and in the Flinders Ranges which is the beginning of the Australian outback. It's mostly the states of Victoria and New South Wales that get the snow in winter in the alps. Beautiful scenery too. thanks for sharing.
Oh lovely! My brother lives in Australia and he was just telling me about the snowfall there, I didn’t know how much there was there. I hope to visit him someday and see it for myself ! Thank you for sharing ❤️ best wishes
The best part of Wednesday is your beautiful videos. They bring me such peace and joy. The Snow was beautiful! I love your furry companion, he looks like such a sweet and loyal friend.
Aw thank you! That’s lovely to hear - yes he’s actually the first dog I’ve ever raised and he’s such a good friend, always keeping an eye out for me ❤️ best wishes to you
I love your philosophy on how you view life. I'm mesmerized by your lifestyle. It is simple, yet satisfying.♥️ God bless!🙏
Just watching these videos make me so calm
Hello Denise, how are you?
I'm glad youtube recommended me your channel. I find so much peace and joy watching your videos ✨♥️
Living in the middle of nowhere with no one around must be the best place to be right now in a pandemic
Haha in a way yes! A lot of places to go while being socially distant. At my preschool I’m constantly masking up and bleaching everything! It’s extra scary if we have outbreaks here because we only have a tiny clinic. Fingers crossed we get over this soon 🤍 best wishes
It is! I was lucky enough to live like that when it all started, nothing changed for us.
@@TheCottageFairy WOW! My sister and here family live in a tiny town called Shohola in PA, they are surrounded by the woods with few neighbours. Most people in the States, never heard of the place, but it's beautiful there 🌿💚
Probably all the time, city wears out on you after a while
@@skatinka5788 true...
This is a kind of Life that i can dream of...Forest living with Nature.
Thank you for bringing us along.
The world and its troubles pass a little smoother in such places. 🙏💗🙏
Hello Michelle, how are you?
You have definitely been blessed. That is a gorgeous place. I am addicted to the outdoors. I used to be able to ride out deep into the forests at night and just sit and listen to the sounds of night's nature. Especially breath-taking when the moon is out...I would sit in the midst of some evergreen trees and soak in the sight of moon beams filtering through the canopy and alighting the cushy ground. Brings tears to my eyes.
Hello dear friend, thank you for sharing these glimpses of your beautiful life and your precious animals in such a
majestic setting. I have to say that the cinematography of your videos is superb, with nature being the star of
the show.
Autumn has finally arrived here in all it's gloriousness and I'm loving all the wonderful colours and the crisp air.
Stay blessed. ~ Love from Toronto, Canada.
The rainy valley is so beautiful! I am so excited to see more autumn shots from your corner of the world 😍 growing up as a military brat must have been difficult and I can see why you now seek out the calmness and stability of living slow - when I was a kid (and even today - now that I live there again ) most of my friends where constantly coming and going as their parents (or now spouses) where military too (we live next to the biggest US / NATO base in Europe).
Yes! I see you have insight into what it was like. While I wouldn’t trade my childhood for the world it was hard a times - I think for my more extrovert siblings it was easier, for me the changes were very difficult (definitely one of the reasons I sought out stability here). At least moving so much made it easy to take the chance of coming here. Made me wish to embrace a quieter life after being so close to war and politics for so long. Thank you for your lovely comment, I think we are just finding more and more things we have in common! If I ever find myself in your part of the world again we will definitely have to have a cuppa. ❤️ I can’t wait to share more images of fall and winter here
@@TheCottageFairy absolutely understandable! But often the struggles in life are the things that lead us to our true calling and dream life and it seems you have found a beautiful purpose and lifestyle 💚 and yeeees, if you are ever in neck of the woods come by for some tea and magickal cake!! 😄
Hello 👋, how are you doing
This looks so lovely and relaxing, just a tip (if you're interested) pop a lid or cover your herbal tea when steeping, so you don't loose some of the nutrients in the steam. Great video really enjoyed it.
There appears to be an inner strength to your core as you openly share and reflect to yourself and others about you. Very few people exercise the time to find the time to grow their inner core. Opening and sharing about yourself is likely the best medicine a body or spirit can have. There is poetry and prose in what you obviously find is natural to you.
You are a vision of dreams past. lovely and pure. I pray you are happy and loved. Thank you for sharing moments of your life.
How serene. One of the best things I've seen on UA-cam.
The view is so beautiful it looks like you're standing in front of a green screen with a mountain backdrop😍
It’s amazing how unreal it feels out there, thank you so much 🤍
It's really cool to see how you are turning your passion into a career. Quiet rural life and making art/videos. Very dreamy. I would love a video where you share about what led you to start making videos and how your grew in your craft as a video artist.
Love you for your peace which is spreading all around the world. Thank you for your way of life. Si inspiring.
I have learned to buy from local artists. Especially paintings and crafts. They don’t ask for more but just support. So, buying their works here and there really help the small entrepreneurs to motivate themselves. Also, it further encourages small-medium enterprises.
Sending love from Mauritius 🇲🇺
I absolutely enjoy watching every single one of your videos. It's very calming and for some reason it pushes me to be more productive. Please keep continue doing your good work ❤❤
I grew up in a place like that; eventually will transition back to that life again! 🙏 love your channel!
I like u am single ❤😍😍
She is living the right life👍
Look at people in big cities including me , while lockdown. Theyre going to starved while actually theres no natural disaster n the foods still grow naturally at the fields... Really really weird...
The lazy people will starve
@@HospitalForSouls.X right. Also another factor , luck👍
@@HospitalForSouls.X are you lazy?
I can’t believe people can live in such peace...I’m an unsettled human, too much hurt I can’t forgive from horrid humans...and regrets that haunt me , everyday....then I see this peaceful video....clearly a life I can’t have....but for those who can, may you enjoy it and be better people for it...
Honestly, I don't think that these videos are meant to realistically represent her way of living. She has mentioned before that it's the best moments, but she also has frustrations and hard work that we do not see. I, too, have been through and seen a lot of trauma and find it difficult to have moments like Paola without feeling guilt. I find it hard to truly trust and get very close to people. I feel like the point is to practice mindfulness and find joy in the small things that we tend to overlook. Even if moments of peace are fleeting, it's still nice to have small moments.
I love your Tone and calm spirit. You are in nature that brings peace to the inner man.
Just being in the rain is one of lifes greatest experiences.
I recently discovered your channel and it's really calming and beautiful. I think you would really enjoy making inks/paints out of materials in your garden. I've recently fell in love with it. You can find pigments most anywhere.
Oh! Yes I am greatly interested in making my own paints. I’ve been reading about it, maybe one day I will try it! So glad you enjoy the videos 🤍 best wishes
It’s like Thoreau for the Instagram generation. 💙
It is the need of the hour to take care of nature. Wonderful.
Wonderful place, wonderful person!
May everyone find that awareness for the peace and quiet in the simplicity of life in 2021!
The video is so beautiful. I also supported the Aava channel. Congratulations going forward. God bless you
