    Most of the people in my country live in apartments, with no/small balconies, it is sadly considered a huge luxury to have a garden. My balcony is my garden and stray cat shelter, but having a garden, being connected to nature, just being able to sit out there, walk out there, plant flowers, hear the birds .... all so important. So everyone out there with a garden - enjoy it, take good care of it, know how lucky you are.

    Another Sunday and another morning with you Jo! I love when you take us with you on your “travels “ as such, and we get to see where you live, work and play when things are normal. Don’t apologize for anything. I look forward to these mornings. I even tell my husband where I’ve been with you as he was stationed in London and he loves to hear all about it! That was great advice to buy a plant or a flower. And support your local florist. I love Simon!

    Jo, loved this with Simon and Philippe. I just recently stumbled upon your channel and have been binge watching during lock down. Your London life has made me crave a visit here. What a blessed and wonderful life you’ve made for yourself. Once life starts to return to some sort of normality, it will make us all appreciate what we often take for granted. Just looking from your window fills me with a sense of wonder - it’s so beautiful. Stay safe and thank you for sharing! X

    Another lovely vlog. You look lovely. If you had woken up in full make-up and hair done that wouldn't be real. Your appeal and charm is your authenticity. I hope when you do have 100k subs you won't change a bit! So many do, I guess it becomes more of a job then and people rely on the money from you tube so lose a bit of the real-ness. Anyway, thanks for a lovely stroll around London, and the chat with Simon was lovely too. :-) Happy Sunday x

    I look forward to this wonderful time of my week, a lovely cup of coffee and your vlog 💗. Absolutely loved your chat with Simon. My garden is definitely my happy space, particularly in these difficult times!! My local garden centre, which is run by a wonderful family, is such a lovely place to visit, and I have been worrying about their long term prospects following on from their closure at this time. Unfortunately they don’t have an online service - I wonder what will happen to all the plants they usually have in stock around this time? It’s heartbreaking. BTw, for the first time in my life I have been practicing the alternate nose breathing regularly, so calming and hopefully improving my lung capacity too! Stay safe Jo, have a good week xx

    Jo, sometimes I have been catching your vlogs later than the sunday, so don't then comment as you probably don't see then. Just get overwhelmed with how much I truly love you and some people might think sad, but you have become a friend, probably a virtual one, but hey!!! Your stripping yourself bare (if you pardon the expression ) with this lock down, and that takes confidence, you and your dear Mum stay safe, lots from away up here in Scotland x

London on a nice sunny day, nobody about perfect! Most clear evenings I go outside, take in the cold night air, look skywards and look at the moon and stars. SO peaceful, good for the soul. 🌎🌛☄

    It's true what Simon said about all those industries being gone. I work in hospitality, in a big hotel in Southern Sweden, and even though we don't have a general quarantine here, my job was one of the first ones to go, because events over 500 people (conferences, concerts, and sport events) were prohibited very early on. We went from 700 guests, to 120 overnight, and dwindled down to less than 50. Only a tiny skeleton of staff remains. I was hired by the hour, normally had a good enough income, and that is gone. It is scary, but I have faith things will get better soon. We can only hope. Stay safe everyone!!!

    Good day,
    I was very surprised to recongnize myself when you talked about that woman who left a comment earlier. I think it was me. I'm shy now. I feel like I may have been a little too fast jumping and typing. I may have been emotional, I kept hearing and seeing people not taking this matter seriously ( Covid-19).
    At the start of my trip, after 5 hours on the train, by myself, that brought me to the airport for the flight to Spain; I wa saying to myself: I'm going to Spain, Spain...oh my ! Extraordinary, wasn't it!
    I flew overseas for the first time ever, for a period of 90 days. Well, to my surprise my stay was no longer a vacation. The governement of Spain declared that everyone should stay indoors and go out only for absolute necessity.
    So, there I was, confined in my little studio, helicopters and police drones ensuring that nobody was outside. An apocolyptic scene! Police ensuring security at the grocery store. On my only allowed outing I would get stopped by police on my way back, asking for proof of purchase to ensure i was out for neccessities. After my husband from back home, managed to secure me a flight to go back to Canada. And presently, I am also quarantined for another 14 days.
    I am grateful for the chance I had to be able to fly home, but my only trip in years and years and years, turned out into a pandemic !? Isn't it extraordinary ?!
    Long story short, may I be excused for the comment I made, but that was the context ? ! It was a harrowing experience!
