Masha, you shouldn't be so negative. You were a beautiful child. Thank you for doing this channel. Your soothing voice is helping me treat my stress and anxiety and get me to sleep.
Oh my gosh Mila looks IDENTICAL TO YOU AS A BABY!!! Also thank you UA-cam for recommending me vintage Gentlewhispering, been here since 2011 and I'm very grateful every day
Hello Maria, I just want to cross the screen and tell you that you have a beautiful baby girl, that looks the same as you in the first photo, you are married to an awesome person and you are the most happy woman, I can only imagine how was your life when you filmed this video, but you are now in a better place. I just wish you happiness and health, for you and for all your familiy.
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
and these photos look like art! seriously they look so vintage and they literally look like a work of a professional photographer who's theme is "lost time" or something!
Now I know where you get your beautiful smile and great looks ... your Mom! You look just like her and she was beautiful ... thanks for sharing, relaxing and nice to get to know you just a little better ... keep up the great work! Nothing but love, Jim
Your sister looks like your dad and you look like your mom! I love seeing old photos from my friends and family so it is such a treat for you to share with us ❤️
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 :)
Sb Phoenix hey hun :) Yes I know what you mean. I prefer to watch simple easy videos myself :) But I love to do all kinds of different stuff. As far as those 2 vids, they are both still up, probably hard to find :)
Gentle Whispering ASMR please could you do more simple/back to basics asmr where the camera is down facing the objects rather than facing you ? This is really relaxing to a lot of people when the camera focuses on the item close up and tapping etc. Please please
I love it when you talk about your life in Russia/USSR!! Is just so different to me and to know your experience and impressions of it it's just really awesome. Loved the pictures, thank you for that video :)
You dunno how long I've waited to hear about your life in Russia. I never imaged we would get pics too. Thank you and you're hubby and you make a very cute pair, Maria.
Watching this particular vlog for the first time ( Jan. 2021 ) and am blown away at how much Maria looks like her mother and how much Mila looks like her in that first black and white photo !!!!
Your mother and your sister are so beautiful!! Now I know where you get it from! I loved this video and being able to see you as a child in Russia. ♥ Amazing as always!!
This is a great video! You and your family are so beautiful and you can see the love. I'm so happy for you that you finally found a person who deserves you. I enjoy all of your videos. 😊
It's amazing! When you share things like that with your audience , it means that you trust us. You are the very good person , and I think this is why so many people love you and your videos. We feel your energy and kindness, and you know...It's beyond just a casual ASMR stuff. It's something very pure and live. Thank you so much for everything! This video touched me so much...! Спасибо тебе огромное !!! Я тебя обожаю!!! 😄😄😄
Мария, для меня приятное открытие, что мы с тобой(вами) родились и выросли в одном городе)). 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))
Mila looks just like Maria as a baby and Maria grown looks just like how her mother looked back then that’s so cute. I hope she’s a lot happier, she seemed very sad here
That was lovely. Thank you for sharing. I have to say one of my favorite pastimes is going through old photos, even though it can be a bitter sweet experience.
These are great pictures Maria! You were such a cutie as a little one! I love that you've shared these with us! Going through childhood photos is so much fun
I'd not yet found your channel 13 years ago so I never saw this video until now but it was delightful. Russia fascinates me and it's really cool to be able to see your life before the US. You look just like your mom. In that first pic you can really see it. Beautiful women. And seeing pics of Olga is really awesome too. She's such a talented ASMRtist
This is honestly one of my absolute favorite Maria videos. It's just so natural, it chills me out instantly.. I'd love another video like this with more photos/momentos!
Just found this and 😢so sad how the world has changed for the e worse but sweet hearts like u give me hope that love is able to bloom again in this cold world
I adored this, what a wonderful video. :-) You have a beautiful family and it's clear how much you all care about each other from the photos. Thanks so much for sharing your life with us!
Beautiful, you are so like your Mum, Maria. And your Dad is what we would call in Australia, a good sort. Thankyou for sharing and making me laugh, that school photo 😂 we would have been in big trouble if we did that in our school photos.
It is so fun to get to hear about your life like this. Such a gem. I've been watching your videos for such a long time, but only found this one now :) Love it! Thank you.
Loved it !!! your husband is gorgeous also !! he better not ever cheat on you , you have to many fans who would teach him a lesson, make sure he reads this post, and keep doing what you do it is so therapeutic
Everyone saying how Mila looks just like Maria and Maria like her mom... crazy how genetics work huh ? you’d almost think they’re related or something 😂 Love you Maria!!! This video is so cute. Your family is beautiful.
6:59 And I'm an alcoholic. xD Oh Maria! Great video by the way; you really do look like your mother! It's interesting to see your life before you came to the US! :)
Awww thanks for sharing your photos with us....your mum and dad and sis are gorgeous looking now I know where you get your good looks from....so sweet. BTW they had colour photos in the 80s don't make me feel older than I already do I am 16 years older than you and everything in the 80s was technicolour one of the most colourful decades lol xx
also not sure why you were embarrassed about the uniform picture. you did indeed look great in it, not surprising though; you could wear a potato sack and still manage to look good i think. also amusing that you thought your hair in the prom picture "looked bad". why are you so overly critical of yourself?
awwww Maria, this was a lovely video, you certainly were not ugly, looking at photo's is great, we do it all the time at my moms, thank you for sharing them :) x
What a beautiful life! Everything looks so 'healthy'. Reminds me of my youth time in Eastern Europe. You don't have to apologize for anything: it is easy to feel everything is genuine.
Thank you for this personal insight to your early life. The short jeans are called flood pants - the Dutch would understand. The class school picture is a riot. You are a wonderful lady Maria, and you warm my heart.
You are such a cutie from beginning to the present! I was born in 1951 and you were born in 1986; that makes me 35 years older than you. Thank you for being there, laughing and showing how great life is! Love to you...
I'm rewatching this in 2019 and Mila looks exactly like Maria as a baby!!! So sweet
I'm from the future it's 2020 and ww3 is trending again
Exactly like her
yes I see the picture of little mila too.
Omg yes the resemblance is shocking!
Malachi Miller oh just wait.......
Oh my God you look exactly like your mother! Both so beautiful!
yep
I thought it was her omg
It looks like they are the same person, creep but cut 😍
lol I was just about to say that.
Same
Masha, you shouldn't be so negative. You were a beautiful child.
Thank you for doing this channel. Your soothing voice is helping me treat my stress and anxiety and get me to sleep.
Matthew Coates same she inspired me to do ASMR too ❤️
Matthew Coates Her Name is Maria I think her nick name is Masha just to let u know okay I'm not being rude.
Matthew Coates lucky my anxiety is so high I can’t even sleep to anything anymore

makeupabsolu no shii

Oh my gosh Mila looks IDENTICAL TO YOU AS A BABY!!! Also thank you UA-cam for recommending me vintage Gentlewhispering, been here since 2011 and I'm very grateful every day
It literally could be a photo of her. What a striking resemblance
Hello Maria, I just want to cross the screen and tell you that you have a beautiful baby girl, that looks the same as you in the first photo, you are married to an awesome person and you are the most happy woman, I can only imagine how was your life when you filmed this video, but you are now in a better place.

"it's a typical russian family... she's the typical housewife.... and i'm an alcoholic" i was supposed to be relaxing but i laughed so hard

This was my first ever ASMR/Maria video :)
This is such a great video! I love when people share themselves like this. It makes me feel like her friend...
Mine too!!!
It is one of her most heartfelt ones!
and these photos look like art! seriously they look so vintage and they literally look like a work of a professional photographer who's theme is "lost time" or something!
lol
"I love my sister a lot" and then stroking her picture everytime she came up
What a coincidence! My name is Svetlana and the friend who started my ASMR was my friend Maria. I just loved watching her draw pictures :)
You look SO much like your mother!!
Anna Juliet no suit
@@prophetanal9585 funny how people are amazed that someone looks like they people that made them
I just watched your draw my life and can't imagine what you were going thru at the time of filming this video. You've come so far since then Maria ❤️
My goodness, You look BADASS in that soldier outfit!
***** That's right :P I mean biznez :)
+GentleWhispering you look JUST like your mom in the first picture just different hair!!!
Gentle Whispering ASMR you look so much like your mom now in the picture with you in the swimsuits
Ella Edwards
that's what I thought. she totally does
Your dad looks like Brad Pitt!!!
I agree!
so glad someone else thought so too!!
I legit thought the same thing 😂
Brad Putin?
omg completely was gonna type that, that's crazy
Maria stop saying you weren't pretty! You were SUCH a cute little kid!!
That first picture the resemblance with her Mom is shocking.
Now I know where you get your beautiful smile and great looks ... your Mom! You look just like her and she was beautiful ... thanks for sharing, relaxing and nice to get to know you just a little better ... keep up the great work! Nothing but love, Jim

This video always calms me down when my anxiety is high. I’d love for another video of memorabilia or pictures.
I love videos like these!!! It's so interesting and lovely but relaxing at the same time.
It feels like we all have a connection to you Maria! ❤️
Thank you so much for bringing this video back. It’s one of my favorites. ❤️
I don't know why you think you aren't beautiful. You were a beauty when you were a child, and you still are! By the way, those red boots are FAB!
you look almost identical to your mum, so beautiful 💗 thank you for sharing this piece of your life with us!
Mila and you are exactly the same!
Maria: "I was so not pretty when I was younger."
Also Maria: * literally Kirsten Dunst's twin *
that’s what i was gonna say!! her and her sister look so much like kirsten
i kept thinking it too!! i was like this is literally Kiki if she was russian. so cute
You dunno how long I've waited to hear about your life in Russia. I never imaged we would get pics too. Thank you and you're hubby and you make a very cute pair, Maria.
For some strange reason...your dad KINDA reminded me of Brad Pitt, haha! Not entirely of course, just a little. Lovely family!
I See It Too! He Has This Resemblance To Brad Pitt When You First See Him InThe Picture :)
i agree hahahahaha
Kamal Saggu yeeeeeeeeeeessssssssss hahahah
Seriously the shoes you're wearing at 15:36 came back to style 😂💖💖
Things I remember russia for: communism, migs, Ukraine, stalin, snow, and gentle wispering
LOL
Ian kearns
but. but. but the cold war :(
I was born in the year before the USSR collapsed.
Vince Rutherford, I suppose, this is not the best thing to remember of Russia :)
Don't forget some bad ass tanks too! Not to mention the black shark attack helicopter.
Watching this particular vlog for the first time ( Jan. 2021 ) and am blown away at how much Maria looks like her mother and how much Mila looks like her in that first black and white photo !!!!
Your mother and your sister are so beautiful!! Now I know where you get it from! I loved this video and being able to see you as a child in Russia. ♥ Amazing as always!!
Therapist : Don't worry, Soldier Maria doesn't exist. She can't hurt you.
Soldier Maria : 8:15
This is a great video! You and your family are so beautiful and you can see the love. I'm so happy for you that you finally found a person who deserves you. I enjoy all of your videos. 😊

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))
Это не колорит 90-х, это мыльницы полароид
Mila looks just like Maria as a baby and Maria grown looks just like how her mother looked back then that’s so cute. I hope she’s a lot happier, she seemed very sad here
You made that prom dress? wow! So talented!
You are one of the most awesome individuals I've ever come across! I thank you for everything you do for me!

Loved this!!!! Stop putting yourself down! You are so beautiful! We all have those pictures of us as teenagers...if we're lucky. Treasure them. ❤️
That was lovely. Thank you for sharing. I have to say one of my favorite pastimes is going through old photos, even though it can be a bitter sweet experience.
In the beach picture with your sister I almost couldn't tell which one was you! You look a LOT alike!
Фотки улетные)))) Огромное спасибо, Машенька)))

also amusing that you thought your hair in the prom picture "looked bad". why are you so overly critical of yourself?
husband doesn't want you to show his face clearly, because he doesn't want an angry mob of guys hating him for snatching you up. ;)
okie calm down smh
Thank you Maria for sharing this video with us!
Your dad looks a mixture between Brad Pitt and Nathan Fillion O.o
awwww Maria, this was a lovely video, you certainly were not ugly, looking at photo's is great, we do it all the time at my moms, thank you for sharing them :) x
I thought your mom was you at first.

Looking back, Mila looks just like you! 1:19
Thank you for this personal insight to your early life. The short jeans are called flood pants - the Dutch would understand. The class school picture is a riot. You are a wonderful lady Maria, and you warm my heart.
