    This was the first ever GentleWhispering video I ever watched. At first I thought, why I am I so hooked watching this lady talk about her life? And then I realised. It was the feeling I used to get as a kid, that tingling feeling in your head and your eyes start to get heavy. And the official term for it was ASMR. I just want to thank Maria for this, as if it wasnt for her, I would have never have known :) xx

    I miss your videos like this Maria :(. There's something really special about videos like this when someone shares not just their creativity but a part of themselves and their past.
    Out of curiousity I searched for a couple of other videos I remember from over the years. The draw my life one and the binaural microphone test (the second part). I understand why you took them down - but still a bit gutted :S. They were very relaxing and there was something special about them, they just seemed to be an honest reflection of you - which, for me at least, was more relaxing than all the RP's combined.
    Thanks for the tingles Maria :)

Дом с синими балконами очень яркое воспоминание из детства, жила в такой пятиэтажке(может были соседями)). И вообще может это 90е, а может особый липецкий колорит- у меня детское фото абсолютно в таком же стиле и фото выпуска и пляж, мир тесен))
