I can relate to so much in this video, from the Reverse Culture Shock of coming home, to the strange phenomena of doing your best work when you’re actually really busy with other things. I hope you find what you’re looking for back in San Francisco!
So good to hear from you, Olly. I can definitely imagine you’ve had many of these experiences. Thanks for watching, mate, it’s been great to see your continued success while I’ve been away!
Congratulations! And welcome back to the Bay Area-so happy you’re back! I missed your language learning content, your positive energy, and your candor when things go wrong. Thank you for sharing your challenges with so much authenticity.
Thanks so much for this warm comment @francefy! I always try and hope to put positive energy out into the world while always being candid about the good and the bad in a way that is authentic and relatable to people - but it's always hard to know how things get perceived. So it's really heart-warming to read that you get these things from my content. This kind of feedback helps me to just continue being myself and to trust that my intentions will be felt.
Congrats on the job at Google! And it's great to have you back! You're 100% right about failure and success. As Dan Povenmire (co-creator of the show _Phineas and Ferb_ and voice of Dr. Doofensmirtz) put it, it's not a failure, it's a setback, and it's part of the process to success. All you have to do is trust the process. This video actually came at a good time, where I was feeling down about my own creative endeavors seeming coming to a crawl, but you got me to reflect on what I actually did accomplish and how far I've come. I've been watching your content since you did that 30 day video challenge, and I'll be sure to keep watching from here on. Welcome back, man.
Heyyyy Kirby, it's so good to see you again! Thank you for the warm comment and congratulations - it's SO good to be back! ✨ Honestly, I think one of the simplest principles that helps me most in life is to "trust the process". It's amazing how simple, practical, and reasonable it is, and how much pressure it takes off our shoulders when we embrace it. It's so nice to read that this video made you reflect on how far you've come with your own creative endeavors! Along with trusting the process, I think it's so important to allow ourselves those moments to reflect and simply give ourselves credit for how far we've come and how much we've grown along the way. Keep going, I'm sure you've come even farther than you might give yourself credit for 💪🏼
To "look back and see: We didn't fail at all" is one of the deepest conclusions I have ever heard of, thank you for this - it will greatly motivate me in future.
We missed you so much! Congratulations on getting the job and I'm so happy for you. I can see in your face how you're excited about your new chapter of your life. All the best wishes!
It's so good to see you @lary_go! Thank you for the wonderful comment and congratulatory wishes, it makes me really really happy to see these heart-warming comments. I hope you are well and look forward to sharing more videos!
I really appreciate that you chose to share your journey with us. Thank you, truly. It helps to see that we're all going through things and sometimes you have to get past a rough patch. I look forward to seeing more of what you are up to. Congratulations! You deserve it
Thanks so much for your heartfelt comment, Tiffany! I was quite nervous about sharing this story, especially while writing the script and trying to figure out how to tell it, what to share or not share, worrying about how it would be perceived and so on. So it's really encouraging to read this feedback and see it was all totally worthwhile and positive!
We missed you so much, I had asked myself multiple times what happened with you and now I'm so glad you're back (y) . I can't wait for your language learning videos
Thanks so much for your patience and for caring about what had happened to me, Vanio! I'm really happy to be back now and hope you'll love the new videos
I’m not crying you’re crying! 😭😭This is so beautiful, Robin. And what a lesson in life! That sometimes our perceived failures are actually pathways to unexpected things that give us even greater joy. Another indicator that we don’t always know what is actually best for us, but it’s the daring to try any way where we make all our discoveries. So happy for you, Robin. Congratulations!
Aw thanks so much for this warm and heartfelt comment, Julia! I’m so so happy that you found this to be beautiful 🥺❤️ I think you’re totally right about how it’s the being brave and daring enough to just try that often shows us the way. Sometimes that ends up being what we thought, oftentimes it isn’t, but as long as we’re always trying our best I feel we will find our way. The not knowing is one of the great spices of life ✨ thank you again for the support!
Heyyy Carol, it's so good to see you in the comments again! Your fingers were pretty fast and it made me so happy to see the notification. I've really missed being here, and it means a lot to be told that I was missed too. Thanks so much for your support!
Hiii María, I'm really happy to be back and reading these warm, wonderful comments! It makes me happy that you were so excited to hit that notification 😄 I hope you loved the video!
So thrilled for you! I have missed your positivity and helpfulness. Wishing you great joy! Congrats for realizing the final message decades younger than I did.
Welcome back! I’m so glad to hear you are doing well. Although I have to tell you, multiple times over the months I had a worrying thought that you were in real trouble, sleeping under a bridge or dead or something…I even admit to Googling a couple different things to make sure there were no obituaries for you out there somewhere. Setting boundaries and protecting personal space and getting time away from the online crowds is often necessary, but maybe saying so publicly would have helped allay some worry from your fans. Just a thought to consider for next time! Anyway, congrats on the job and personal developments, this is a much better outcome than my overactive imagination was drumming up. ; )
Hi @J. Kos! Thanks so much for this comment and for your concerns about my well-being these past months. I have to say, I did leave a lot out of this video and at times I did feel in quite a lot of trouble or unsure if I'd end up sleeping outside again - thankfully this time things ended up much better and I don't ever want to have those thoughts, worries, or anxieties ever again. I'm sorry that I had you worried and didn't make a more public statement about my time away sooner. I guess at the time all this was happening, on one hand it was such an intense period emotionally I honestly didn't know what to say. On the other hand, I also didn't know that it would last as long as it did - in the beginning I thought maybe this will last a month or two; then at one point about 2.5 months in it seemed like it was all over, but then it wasn't. Finally, perhaps the biggest mistake on my part was wanting to make something beautiful for everyone and not wanting to just put any old thing out there - but it could have been better to simply post something so that people wouldn't worry. Once again, thank you for your support. As I mentioned in the video, I've always felt this way, but it's been so, so heart-warming to see the supportive comments pouring in and that the connections we make on these platforms can be so genuine and people really do care for each other.
Your video feels like catching up with a dear friend I haven’t seen for a while. Which is true. Amazing how you can make us all feel like dear friends. Wishing you the best with your new job. Google will be a better company for having hired you. And we are all better people having known you. Looking forward to our next chat!
I'm a little late, but congratulations on landing the job at Google!!! That's so exciting!!!! Also, thank you for making this video. It's so easy to look at how things aren't going as planned and feel like a failure, when, you're right, often we are succeeding (or building towards other opportunities and dreams) that we can't see in the moment. It's a great reminder that life often takes us in unexpected places and that the journey is worth the hardship, even if it doesn't seem like it at the time.
You're a modern day hero, Robin. You're the reason why I decided to become a programmer after a completely different career. Congrats! You totally deserve it. I look forward to your new content. We've missed you. That's for sure.
Thanks so much Ziadi! It makes me very happy to read that my videos can be a source of serotonin and motivation that you can come back to whenever you need to. I hope to make even better videos that can be that resource of positivity for everyone!
Heyyy Marina, thanks so much for the heartfelt and encouraging comment! It's so good to be back, I really hope to tell many more stories as well as I can :)
THANK YOU so much @A Campos! It's so heart-warming to see how happy we can all be to share in each other's triumphs and successes. It always makes me so happy to see all of you doing well, overcoming obstacles, and having breakthroughs. I really appreciate your warm congratulations and support!
I can't describe how this video and your coming back means to me, I have been following you for about two years or a little less, I was in low intermediate level in English and lost my way in language learning, I have seen most of your videos and when you disappeared from my life I genuinely missed something, you came to my mind multiple times and I just hoped that you are ok. I'm now in place much simillar to your place in Bristol, you gave me the push I just need to move on! It's great to have you back!
Hi SAM! Thanks so much for this wonderful comment, it means a lot to me that my return to UA-cam is so meaningful to you ☀️ I really appreciate you taking the time to watch so many of my videos and for missing me while I was away. I'm happy to read this video gave you a push to keep going and move on - you can do this! We're all in this together 😄 Wishing you the best luck with your English studies and life in general, and I'll be back with more positive energy soon!
@@RobinMacPhersonFilms Thank you Robin! I'll do my best! がんばれます！I'll be around waiting for you, so glad to have you back. Also, never think that on body care about you.
So glad you are doing well. Your language content was one of the first I found and your tips still help when struggling or demotivated. Whether you produce little or lots of future content, do not feel that you have failed. A genuine and honest person you deserve all the fruits of your considerable efforts.
Your experience makes me think of language learning: trying to learn so many languages but never going very far, finally leads to determining the language that really suits you :)
Super! J'ai commencé à regarder cette vidéo en pensant que peut-être vous n'alliez pas très bien (puisque c'est la dernière sur votre chaine depuis presque 4 mois). Mais la bonne nouvelle à la fin me rassure. Vous êtes probablement très occupé avec le nouvel emploi. Si vous êtes heureux c'est tout ce qui compte.
welcome back Robin! i discovered this channel during your time away from youtube and it's been a wonderful motivation in my studies, been eagerly anticipating your return :)
Hii @mellow! I'm so glad you found my channel during my time away and that it's had a positive impact on your studies and motivation! I'm just feeling sooo so motivated to make lots more content like that. Thanks so much for your support!
I love how honest, raw and artistic this video is. Congratulations Robin! Content creation journey is never easy. Thank you for sharing your stories. It's very inspirational! Please keep going! :)
Thanks so much for this comment, @just Henri! I'm really happy that "honest, raw and artistic" are qualities that you felt in the video. Can't wait to share more and I wish you the very best with your content creation journey, too!
I am so happy for you getting a job with google, a dream of yours. You have encouraged so many of us to study languages and I always love your coffee introduction!
You’re making a good point. We are responsible for where we are. We let go of everything and everyone eventually. The end of projects, careers, a relationship, an illusion…all these become the fertilizer and the foundation for the next chapter in our life despite our unawareness and disagreeability with the end of something that’s supposed to end. Autumn marks the death of leaves which we call so beautiful in their colors. This death makes the following Spring’s leaves possible as the breakdown of fallen leaves nourish the tree. All things are supposed to end which makes this moment and our life so important. To die is not a problem, but to have lived in a manner that reflects that we surely will die is to squander life. It’s a great story.
Hello Robin! And hello to all who are reading this comment. Another Robyne here. Robin, I can relate to your words and your story. My life started to change in 2015 and continued to change so much that in 2021 ( not bad changes) just the normal, job, relationship etc.) Then, I sold 99 percent of my things( gazillion x10) plus my home and moved to Ecuador. Yeah that happened! And for a person who is a wannabe minimalist and lover of things, it was challenging to say the least. But, I wanted to live in a spanish speaking country forever... BUT those possessions I loved were holding me back from making that desire come true. I lived in Japan many years before, so I knew that I could make a big move, I just hadn't made it happen. And so, you're story resonated. "The aspects of life life whatever that is" ...thank you. I am curious as to what you will be doing for Google. And congratulations on that accomplishment, for I heard that it's quite hard to become one of their teammates. I also heard that Google is an amazing employer, which is wonderful energy to work with and in. Looking forward to more updates on your journey. Ciao
I felt so so so much bad after seeing this video, as my age is only 18 I only recommend you to be strong more then strong be hard... ALL THE BEST FOR ALL and I love your videos I get inspired by watching your videos THANK YOU ROBIN SIR
Hiii @The Avocado Protocol! Wheee I'm so happy you missed me and I can't wait to make lots more videos now. Thank you for the congratulatory wishes! ❤️
@@RobinMacPhersonFilms you're welcome! I want to thank you for putting out this wholesome content. I've been feel like a failure recently and I gained hope through this video. (◍•ᴗ•◍)❤
Great video! Even though I've seen just a couple of videos from your channel, I felt genuinely happy of your achievement at Google. I was able to relate with this video when you said that you couldn't take the time to celebrate your achievements during a hectic period because there was a lot going on. I'm feeling motivated right now, thank you.
Hi! I am so happy for you and your advancement! Having a job in Google is really cool achievement. I am very proud of you! I am learning English, German and Spanish now and you are a big inspiration for me. So glad you came back!
Thanks so much for your wonderfully encouraging comment, Мирослава! I wish you all the best with your English, German, and Spanish. Keep up the amazing work!
Long time no see Robin Im glad you came back, where have you been You really motivated me to restart my language journeys, Even i made myself a channel Wish you the bests.
Welcome back Robin! Congratulations on your job, it was a real pleasure watching you get what you wanted, it gives me hope in life. Wish you all the best❤
@@RobinMacPhersonFilms I fervently hope that your new life takes off really well Robin. Pity we never got to have that beer ! maybe when you visit your mum? let me know . Take care matey ! 😉
Heyyy thanks so much Steph! I’m so glad you missed my videos and I hope that this new chapter of content will be even nicer and more enjoyable than before!
Congratulations on your new job! I really love San Francisco and the Bay Area too, good choice! :) Also, I really enjoy listening to you, you are very inspirational! Merry Christmas!
Top of the vid, you looked a bit knackered. But, by the end, you were clearly chuffed to bits! Congrats on turning your (seeming) failure into a stunning triumph!!! Welcome back to "the City" and to UA-cam. You were. sorely missed!
Hi Robin so happy for you. Like JKos below I was beginning to wonder if you were okay my friend. Massive congratulations on getting the job and starting a new chapter in your beloved city. Take care and look forward to seeing you on here again real soon. Gros bisous x
Hiii Gaby! It's so good to see your comment, thanks so much for your heartfelt support as always ❤️ Wheee I'm still just so happy and excited to be back even 9 days after publishing the video now! Already thinking about the next video haha ☀️ I really hope that you have been doing well and send big hugs, gros bisous à toi aussi mon amie x
I was so worried about you that I looked you up on the internet and saw your Linkedin and your new gig a few months ago. I was really proud of you and thought it was a better thing than youtube. I love Journaly, thanks for making it and congratulations!
Well done Robin!! Congratulate you to get the dream job and Welcome back to the channel!! And you are totally not a failure for me. I still remember how emotional I was while watching your documentary. That really supported me in my tough time as I just moved to a unfamiliar city as you. You are the best! I agreed with you. Sometimes they need to squat down to jump higher. I am pleased to hear that you enjoy your daily now. All the Best!
Congratulations! Awesome news and I’m pleased for you. Sometimes we need to take time away to focus on other things so we can reach the heights we want to, and I’m glad you’ve been able to do that. Also glad that you’ve found somewhere you feel like you belong and is Home. Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us and I look forward to more of your content. I love your videos, the honesty and inspiration they show.
Hii Aina! Thanks so much for this heartwarming comment, it makes me happy to read that my videos have been helpful and made you smile ☺️ I’m feeling so inspired to keep doing that with more content! Wishing you a wonderful day and see you in the comments of new videos soon!
CONGRATULATION ROBIN, I AM SO PROUD OF YOUU AND WISH NOTHING EXCEPT MORE TO COME YOUR WAY!!!! You are truly an inspiration to us all and have always helped me immensely in my language learning process. I often come here out of many Language learning channels and can't wait to see what's to come. You are literally shining! Welcome back 😊✨
13:16 i love you too robin!🥺i’ve *missed* you and your happy positive videos so much! also, *sooo* happy for you that you’re a noogler now! that’s so cool!❤️😊 *huuuggggg* also i’m from the bay area!😂 - jamie *p.s.* whenever you have time, can you please film some of your vlogs?? you seriously have like the best vlogs ever! you’re so natural and honest with vlogging. well, you are in all your videos.😂
Hey, Robin! You've got such sweet personality! It's such a pleasure to watch your videos. Thanks for your warmth, positivity and sincerity! P.S. I watched this video of yours where you mentioned that you're studying German and Chinese at the same time. I'm doing the same thing. Well, kinda.
I can relate to so much in this video, from the Reverse Culture Shock of coming home, to the strange phenomena of doing your best work when you’re actually really busy with other things. I hope you find what you’re looking for back in San Francisco!

Super! J'ai commencé à regarder cette vidéo en pensant que peut-être vous n'alliez pas très bien (puisque c'est la dernière sur votre chaine depuis presque 4 mois). Mais la bonne nouvelle à la fin me rassure. Vous êtes probablement très occupé avec le nouvel emploi. Si vous êtes heureux c'est tout ce qui compte.
welcome back Robin! i discovered this channel during your time away from youtube and it's been a wonderful motivation in my studies, been eagerly anticipating your return :)
Hii @mellow! I'm so glad you found my channel during my time away and that it's had a positive impact on your studies and motivation! I'm just feeling sooo so motivated to make lots more content like that. Thanks so much for your support!

I am baaaack! lol it made me smile to see your enthusiasm, thanks so much for the support!
I love how honest, raw and artistic this video is. Congratulations Robin! Content creation journey is never easy. Thank you for sharing your stories. It's very inspirational! Please keep going! :)
Thanks so much for this comment, @just Henri! I'm really happy that "honest, raw and artistic" are qualities that you felt in the video. Can't wait to share more and I wish you the very best with your content creation journey, too!
I am so happy for you getting a job with google, a dream of yours. You have encouraged so many of us to study languages and I always love your coffee introduction!
Congratulations! I'm glad that your hard work has paid off!
Thank you so much Dan!!!
Congratulations, Robin! I’m so happy for you!
Thanks sooo much ahhh I’m so happy and fortunate to be surrounded by so many wonderful supporters! ✨
So happy u are back!
Me too me too! 🥳 Thank you Carmen!
You’re making a good point. We are responsible for where we are. We let go of everything and everyone eventually. The end of projects, careers, a relationship, an illusion…all these become the fertilizer and the foundation for the next chapter in our life despite our unawareness and disagreeability with the end of something that’s supposed to end. Autumn marks the death of leaves which we call so beautiful in their colors. This death makes the following Spring’s leaves possible as the breakdown of fallen leaves nourish the tree. All things are supposed to end which makes this moment and our life so important. To die is not a problem, but to have lived in a manner that reflects that we surely will die is to squander life. It’s a great story.
I love you so much too and so glad for you. Congratulations!! Welcome back.
Congratulations!!! Loved the video, and it is very true what you say, sometimes we need time to reflect on our life and go easy on ourselves
Hello Robin! And hello to all who are reading this comment. Another Robyne here. Robin, I can relate to your words and your story. My life started to change in 2015 and continued to change so much that in 2021 ( not bad changes) just the normal, job, relationship etc.) Then, I sold 99 percent of my things( gazillion x10) plus my home and moved to Ecuador. Yeah that happened! And for a person who is a wannabe minimalist and lover of things, it was challenging to say the least. But, I wanted to live in a spanish speaking country forever... BUT those possessions I loved were holding me back from making that desire come true. I lived in Japan many years before, so I knew that I could make a big move, I just hadn't made it happen. And so, you're story resonated. "The aspects of life life whatever that is" ...thank you. I am curious as to what you will be doing for Google. And congratulations on that accomplishment, for I heard that it's quite hard to become one of their teammates. I also heard that Google is an amazing employer, which is wonderful energy to work with and in. Looking forward to more updates on your journey. Ciao
I felt so so so much bad after seeing this video, as my age is only 18 I only recommend you to be strong more then strong be hard... ALL THE BEST FOR ALL and I love your videos I get inspired by watching your videos THANK YOU ROBIN SIR
Robin!! I missed you so much!!
Congratulations for the new job!! Amazing!!
Love u man!❤️

Great video! Even though I've seen just a couple of videos from your channel, I felt genuinely happy of your achievement at Google. I was able to relate with this video when you said that you couldn't take the time to celebrate your achievements during a hectic period because there was a lot going on. I'm feeling motivated right now, thank you.
Hi! I am so happy for you and your advancement! Having a job in Google is really cool achievement. I am very proud of you! I am learning English, German and Spanish now and you are a big inspiration for me. So glad you came back!
Thanks so much for your wonderfully encouraging comment, Мирослава! I wish you all the best with your English, German, and Spanish. Keep up the amazing work!

Top of the vid, you looked a bit knackered. But, by the end, you were clearly chuffed to bits! Congrats on turning your (seeming) failure into a stunning triumph!!! Welcome back to "the City" and to UA-cam. You were. sorely missed!
Hi Robin so happy for you. Like JKos below I was beginning to wonder if you were okay my friend. Massive congratulations on getting the job and starting a new chapter in your beloved city. Take care and look forward to seeing you on here again real soon. Gros bisous x

Already thinking about the next video haha ☀️ I really hope that you have been doing well and send big hugs, gros bisous à toi aussi mon amie x
I was so worried about you that I looked you up on the internet and saw your Linkedin and your new gig a few months ago. I was really proud of you and thought it was a better thing than youtube. I love Journaly, thanks for making it and congratulations!
Congratulations! So happy for you 🤗
El-Dorado! It's so great to see you! Thank you very much 🤗☀️
It's wonderful to see you so revitalized and excited again! I can't wait to see more coffee content :)
Well done Robin!! Congratulate you to get the dream job and Welcome back to the channel!!
And you are totally not a failure for me. I still remember how emotional I was while watching your documentary. That really supported me in my tough time as I just moved to a unfamiliar city as you. You are the best!
I agreed with you. Sometimes they need to squat down to jump higher. I am pleased to hear that you enjoy your daily now. All the Best!
Congratulations! Awesome news and I’m pleased for you.
Sometimes we need to take time away to focus on other things so we can reach the heights we want to, and I’m glad you’ve been able to do that. Also glad that you’ve found somewhere you feel like you belong and is Home.
Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us and I look forward to more of your content. I love your videos, the honesty and inspiration they show.
Amazing! Congrats Robin
hope the book club makes a comeback. I've really fallen off the wagon reading in my TL, hopefully that would help keep me motivated like before
Congratulations on your new job!! Your videos are very helpful and your happiness did make me smile. Thank you so much for your work❤️
