AHHH the storytelling is 🙇🏽♀️ every time i’m in a creative rut (which is quite often), my first response is to come to both your channels. Never fails to amaze me, chills, literal chills!
“The life you choose to live only really has to make sense to you” YES!! You don’t need to justify your choices or anything to anyone, not even yourself! If you know you know
There is a word I heard recently made me think of you among other authors, Moledro: a feeling of resonant connection with an author or artist you'll never meet, who may have lived centuries ago and thousands of miles away but can still get inside your head and leave behind morsels of their experience, like the little piles of stones left by hikers that mark a hidden path through unfamiliar territory.
Interesting concept! Another one that I have recently discovered with other authors is the Japanese concept of ikigai. The Japanese concept of referring to something that gives a person a sense of purpose, a reason for living. Trying to wrestle with that as I explore building a UA-cam channel and other projects at the same time.
I am so happy for how far you've come as a content creator. 6 months ago I left a comment under your (now most watched video) that your channel deserves more recognition. I think you were at maybe around 40k subscribers. And now almost 500k 😎 Keep you doing what you're doing. The quality of your content is so high.
When you keep showing up for life, eventually life will show up for you. I love that sentence. Thank you for sharing it. Been having difficulty with my own journey currently and your video inspire me to do more. Im not a creator or anything, but i hope to build something of my own eventually. Btw, both you and Colt are so cute. Wish you both the best!
Happy New Year and best of luck on your journey! Every voice has an important message to send to someone, so don't let yourself discouraged by starting fresh, while so many voices already speak loud out there. 🙏🏼❤️
You got this! I can definitely emphasize with the feeling of difficulty with my own creator journey with this project and others. But take it slow, results take time and patience. Definitely learning that as I go along.
kariza, you are such a big inspiration to me! I hope that someday I will inspire others, too, as you did to me. I don't know how many times I cried watching your videos
I know now the feeling of creating content and having this impact. And I am not constantly posting comments or liking a video, but since you made this in such a good way and at a perfect time, I have no choice but to express myself in the comment section, haha
I’m an older guy,,,no doubt much older than your target audience and most likely the peeps that follow you. But I really enjoy your videos for one simple reason,,,they make me feel a sense of peace. I realize you have a message in every video, and I’ve seen others talk about your cinematography and ability to marry music with each scene, etc….. But honestly, your videos just make me feel good. Thank you for your content.
I'm literally in love with your content! I wanted to start creating content and have been caught up with the typical type of vlogging and I came across your channel. You're my no.1 inspiration rn!
this is like a movie. I just love it so much. I can't help watching them all over and over again. so if I comment twice on these videos and I forgot? apologies. I just love watching them all in a playlist
Thank you Riza! I started creating videos pretty much around the same time you posted the main character video, and I've been following your journey since then, I love all the messages you put out in your videos, but this video in particular is exactly what I needed to remind myself to keep it simple as I also find myself overcomplicate things so much when creating. so thank you! Lots of love xx
Hi Riza!! I have recently found your channel this year, and I am so glad I stumpled across it. Every one of your videos feels like it should belong to a museum, of how *beautiful* you make your videos. I love your videotagraphy, and Can't wait to see more! Thank you
Just discovered your channel and what an amazing storytelling talent that you have! So warm, aesthetic, and most importantly touching as well. Definitely very new to the UA-cam game, but excited to study some videos that you have and learn from you.
Girl u are soo soo inspiring...I always wanted to do vlog of my life but being introvert I am always sceptical ...but after following u from last one year I am so ready to start my own channel... thanks for being such inspiration....u are and always will be my fav along with Gawx...
Hey Riza, your videos are simply amazing. I wanted to tell you that I’ve gained a lot of inspiration from them and hope to implement the advice in my own journey. Thank you for sharing and look forward to your story unfolding
I want to cry, guys this is the type of content I've been dying to see. I'm so glad I found my niche again after ages. I don't how to explain to you guys how happy and emotional I am while typing this message. I feel so alive and you guys have sparkled my creativity. Much Love guys.
Yay you came to Stockholm! During one of the best Decembers we’ve had in many years. I have followed your channel for over a year now and it’s amazing to see what you’ve done and what a great life you’ve built! Hope Sweden was very good to you.
This is so encouraging and heart warming! Looking back and reflecting How far you've come is so wise! Sometimes I'm so surprised when I look back! I never want to be the same person I was a year ago! The saddest parts of your videos is when they end. 😭
Not me tearing up watching this. Another masterpiece, another hit to my soul. Thank you for those words to Riza from a year ago because I needed to hear them 🤍
Hi Riza, I am also shy, so when I heard you mention that this time last year, you were shy and unhappy with your work, it literally brought tears to my eyes. In a world where social media seems dominated by outgoing individuals, I was struggling to find a place for myself. It wasn't until I saw your video that It shows a way of how quieter people can also beautifully express themselves. So about two months ago, I finally had the courage to start my own channel. I've drawn so much inspiration from you, not only in the way you tell a story and shoot videos but also whenever I feel lonely on this journey. I come back here and remind myself that i just need to stay focused and carry on being myself. Thank you for being there. ❤
Ever since I found your channel a few months ago when I was in a slump, your videos have pushed me to learn a new skill. Videography is always something I was interested in but never took the time to actually learn it.
What a year it has been! It's been amazing to see your journey progress after your years of preparation and it's cool that you can share it with someone who also gets it like Colt! Love your vids and always feel inspired after watching 🥹
So inspiring to see you in Stockholm at a creator conference! Love the crispy audio in this vid. I actually got the mke 600 after watching your videos and wondered why you're audio sounded so good. It's a bit big for vlogging but my favorite sounding mic, even more than the mkh 416!
My audio on the video wasn’t working for the first minute, but it was shot and edited so well I wasn’t sure there was any audio. Just great visual storytelling right there.
That relatable content and being authentic is what works with the way UA-cam is going in 2024! It's amazing and inspiring for folks like me that just started this year and have no idea what they are doing lol.
Recently discovered your channel and you give off the most comforting and soothing vibe. Keep up the good work! I am currently going through it but this brings me joy! have a good day
Always, I get inspired by you. One day I will be out in the world, creating art just like you are. I absolutely cannot wait. Thanks again Riza for another amazing video as always!
pretty new to your channel and i really really love the intro section of your video. Is like watching a movie/netflix drama of those storyline, and your voice is really theraputic (not trin' to be a creep), but is truly special. Thank you for creating such interesting video content and Merry Christmas to you!
so proud of how far you've come. i dont watch often but when i do catch your videos, it's always a treat. to think that you were once a girl cwalking with me on a parking lot with several others and making videos of that, to what you do now. can't wait to see you upload a video for a million.
THE BEGINNING is so cute omg
oh
im obssessed with the beginning
Moonrise Kingdom
Personally, my biggest struggle is deciding which coordinated upload from you or Colt to watch first..
Exactly ikr! 😭
I’ve never seen something capture my life so perfectly
Same 😂
Always ladies first 😅
Good struggles though 😂🫶🏼
"when you keep showing up for life, eventually life will show up for you". THIS IS MY STICKY NOTE REMINDER FOR THIS WEEK. THANK YOU!!
AHHH the storytelling is 🙇🏽♀️

“The life you choose to live only really has to make sense to you” YES!! You don’t need to justify your choices or anything to anyone, not even yourself! If you know you know
I needed to hear that, thank you so much, Florence!
Slowly realizing that myself as I have this project along with my other passion project that I am living. If you know, you really do know.
Every video Riza makes is an auto-click for me. I just love your storytelling style. Thank you! ♥♥
thank YOU! 🙌🏼

Your videos are filled with so much OPTIMISM... and that's the best part. They leave you feeling good about yourself. Incredible.
This is the mere beginning for you Riza, you are INCREDIBLY underrated right now.
I only just found your channel but man - I'm already a fan for life! Glad you found your passion, and here's to a big 2024!
Love this video! You are a literal inspiration to so many people especially Filipino Canadians out there!! Thank you for showing up ❤

Thank you Riza!

your videos with colt and colt's videos with you are like love letters to each other. Modern day love letters. :)

The beginning was so freaking cute
The beginning reminded me of a Wes Anderson movie, this was so cute and well made happy you found your way !
The best UA-cam couple 🤍 thank you, guys, for all your videos ! You’re a great inspiration ✨
This is so encouraging and heart warming! Looking back and reflecting How far you've come is so wise! Sometimes I'm so surprised when I look back! I never want to be the same person I was a year ago! The saddest parts of your videos is when they end. 😭
DAAAMUUMMAAAAA!!!!! I just cant get enough of it
I have never been more inspired by the work of someone like you Riza
LOVE LOVE LOVE
ANOTHER RIZA+COLT BANGER, u guys are seriously such big inspirations to continue creating even when I'm in a rut
i always find that i gain motivation to create when i watch your beautifully made content!
Going into the snow looks so surreal
I see Riza I click! Such a cute integration of date/travel vlog/sponsored video, cozy vibe throughout! loved it
Not me tearing up watching this. Another masterpiece, another hit to my soul. Thank you for those words to Riza from a year ago because I needed to hear them 🤍

Wes Anderson would be proud of that intro 😅
Hey Kariza, we absolutely love your videos and take so much inspiration from you for our own channel. Just want to say thank you! ❤️
The vibe of your videos has always this little inspiring and comfy thing i love !

There is a place for everyone when you start being yourself ❤️ thanks for being here!!
Ever since I found your channel a few months ago when I was in a slump, your videos have pushed me to learn a new skill. Videography is always something I was interested in but never took the time to actually learn it.
Cool Editing, music, Story and not forgetting the color grading. Merry Christmas folks 🎄
Some of the footages in this lovely gem would make Wes Anderson proud. I love it. Keep going Riza!
Riza would you mind sharing where you get your music selections from? They are bomb!! Keep up the good work.
"just say yes"
"you become more of what you do"
soo true
What a year it has been! It's been amazing to see your journey progress after your years of preparation and it's cool that you can share it with someone who also gets it like Colt! Love your vids and always feel inspired after watching 🥹
You and Colt videos make me happy. Different styles but sooooo good 🥹. Y’all are so cute 🥲❤️
So inspiring to see you in Stockholm at a creator conference!
Love the crispy audio in this vid. I actually got the mke 600 after watching your videos and wondered why you're audio sounded so good. It's a bit big for vlogging but my favorite sounding mic, even more than the mkh 416!
UA-cam IS GETTING LOVELY 🥰 WITH CREATORS LIKE YOU
You guys are so darn cute!! Love your videos Kariza and the important messages you share in them😊🥰
the moonrise kingdom preference is cuteeee
My audio on the video wasn’t working for the first minute, but it was shot and edited so well I wasn’t sure there was any audio. Just great visual storytelling right there.
I’ve always wanted to visit Stockholm! I bet it was something out of a storybook, especially this time of year. Enjoy!
your videos give me so much comfort~
This is destiny!! I just watched moonrise kingdom today and now your video pops up!! You’re great!! I have to say 💗💗
How does she have half a million subs already? Jeeze. Good for her.
That relatable content and being authentic is what works with the way UA-cam is going in 2024!
It's amazing and inspiring for folks like me that just started this year and have no idea what they are doing lol.
Half a million subscribers is just around the corner! What an honor to be your fan since before you reached 10K
thank you for sticking with me !! :’)
As a Chinese, I'm a little admiring your life, you're living but we're surviving. Merry Christmas!😊
OMG! Riza has everything!!
Story telling 💯
Shots 💯
Editing 💯
Beauty 💯😅
WOW! That intro was just incredible! You're a hell of a filmmaker. Hope someday you can direct a movie, I would watch it! Love from Brazil
Okay, very nice. Only a few seconds in and I noticed the inspiration to this intro. I love Wes Anderson movies so this made my heart smile!!!!
Yayyy Kariza and Colt both uploaded !!! 😊
You are always an inspiration! Every time I’m in a rut I watch your videos and am again inspired. Happy holidays ❤❤❤

Recently discovered your channel and you give off the most comforting and soothing vibe. Keep up the good work! I am currently going through it but this brings me joy! have a good day
Always, I get inspired by you. One day I will be out in the world, creating art just like you are. I absolutely cannot wait. Thanks again Riza for another amazing video as always!
