    It may sound like a broken record, but your family videos really are heartwarming. The love and respect you have for each other is what our world is sadly missing in homes today.

    The way your mum speaks to Chris at the end feels very like familial and idk how to explain it but the sweet exchange of knowledge between people from different backgrounds is just so nice to see.

    Next time Christopher is over you should do a segment where he just pretends to be you for a little bit. Don't even say anything about it. Just have him show off some plant or something. You guys look so similar!

    The clothesline is lovely! In case you didn’t know, you can buy washing machines that hook up to your sink - they use the water from the sink and then drain back into the sink as well. Along with the clothesline, that could eliminate the need to use the laundromat :)

    8:01 Theo is so precious. Poor guy. I had a little one that was terrified during thunderstorms and rain. She’d get so anxious and pant and pace and try to climb onto our heads. Over time the things I discovered that helped most were “closing up shop” at the first sign of a storm (closing windows/blinds/curtains), putting on her thundervest, and playing calming music loud enough to partially muffle the sounds of the storm. It wasn’t a cure all but it helped and I could get her to curl up next to me and comfort her. We did have to medicate her one monsoon season that was especially bad; she was keeping us up all night and making herself sick. Figuring out the above combination, we didn’t have to keep doing the meds. Doesn’t sound like Theo is as anxious but breaks my heart when they’re so scared, thought I’d share some of what helped us. He might also have been more attached because you were leaving on a trip. Our animals always seem to sense that and get clingier and kind of mopey.

    As I get older, my relationship with my parents really incrementally improved. lol whenever your mom gets excited about Theo, it reminds me of the time my parents said we couldn't have a pet and my dad and I totally ignored her and we got Dream (RIP)! She would get more excited about coming home to Dream instead of her own kids + grandkids. Thank you for sharing your family with us!

    Wow, your upcoming trip to Vietnam sounds like it's going to be quite an adventure! It's wonderful that you'll have the opportunity to reconnect with family and experience a Vietnamese wedding. Your balcony garden updates are always so fascinating to watch, especially seeing how you creatively utilize space and care for your plants. The addition of the new furniture pieces from Songmics seems to have really elevated the functionality and aesthetics of your living space. And it's heartwarming to see your family come together to work on various projects, from setting up the clothesline to planting herbs from your dad's garden. Thanks for sharing these moments with us! Safe travels and looking forward to more updates when you return! 🌿✈🏡

    cute, i love the clothesline! air drying is way better for the clothes and the environment. clothes on the line makes a garden look lived-in and homey, and it’s really useful for airing out bedsheets and towels between washes.
    also! i like your choice of music for these videos, and the way it’s mixed is really nicely done. 🥰

    I have had enormous success using Bach flower remedies for dogs with fears triggered by thunder, fireworks etc - you could try Mimulus or a mix of Mimulus, Cherry Plum, and Agrimony. Even a few drops in Theo's drinking water while you are away in Vietnam might help. Lovely video. Thank you to your family for taking part - they seem a delightful bunch.
