Count me in!
I love georgia, i want to go to Tbilisi some day. Its a beautiful Caucasian nation with such an outstanding, unique culture and a landscape!🇹🇹🇬🇪
You should use your platform to advocate for Palestine. SHAME.
@@JERIMIAH0ZENDIAH-db3gy You should definitely head to Georgia and Tbilisi if you get the chance! Just be mindful if you head to mountains as well as we did to go with licensed guides for your safety :) Much love buddy!
can we just stop for a second and acknowledge how freaking beautiful Georgia is? damn!

"If you don't have self-respect, you have nothing to offer others"
Profound words
I had to stop and go back to that and screenshot it because as I processed it, it really hit me as being such a wise simple statement. I love it!
That doctor's life is now immortalized in this video. Hundreds of years from now, people will watch this and see that people like him existed during our time. Phenomenal.
yes he is a very special person god bless him
My heart was on the verge of bursting into tears watching this. The scenery, the people, the close to abandoned villages, the few left, the cinematography, the editing and music ... I lived in a different place and time for 36 minutes. It is majestic, beautiful, peaceful and poignant all at the same time. And a sense of inevitable loss...
Beautifully spoken and feel the same way!
Absolutely feel the same way. I always end up crying with yes theory. The inevitable loss hits me every single time. Hard. But, I guess in a good way too? 😅 These guys/men are living the absolute LIFE aren't they?
As a Georgian, I would like to thank you for publishing this video symbolically on our independence day! 🇬🇪✊🏼 It is especially relevant since Georgia is currently struggling with physical and ideological invasion from Russia. Thus, worldwide support means a lot for Georgian people. As a LONG time subscriber, I am so grateful for your positive promotion of the culture and the country and I feel starstruck even through the screen lol. Love you guys! 🫶🏼
Georgia is an amazingly beautiful country, with three incredibly stunning scripts. It is high on my list to visit when money and health allows. I hope the country stays strong, independent, and growing free and lovley!
I hope the youth of Georgia are able to pull their country out of Russia's grip.
I started getting interested in Georgia after I found some Georgian recipes on Pinterest, and then I happened to find a Georgian restaurant, and then I saw online the Tsinandali music festival and the beautiful mountains, and since then I’ve been looking into Georgian culture and hope to visit there! It looks so interesting, really unique.
I’m praying that your country can remove itself from Russia’s grasp 🙏🏽 💪🏽 I remember seeing in the news how many Russians flooded the country, and I fear for your culture and traditions. Praying and hope to visit!
I visited Georgia in Dec 2023 and I was in love with this country! It's landscapes, food and most importantly the people have made this trip beautiful. I wish best for Georgia and it's people
Wishing you all the needed strength in these tough times 🫂🫂 Also this video was such a good reminder for me to finally check out my local Georgian restaurant. Any dish or beverage I should absolutely try?
That Doctor on a Horseback, living Legend I must say!
I wonder if he has a telephone? How else would people ask for his help?
Needs a book and movie created based on him.
@@althejazzman Probably not a telephone - but I imagine they have satellite phones for emergency use, and I saw several satellite dishes around his property, as well as a full solar array for power. They aren't barren from modern technology - it's just hard to get equipment out there. They could easily have radio relays set up between the villages as well...signals probably propagate pretty far out there on the mountaintops.
He's like straight out of a fantasy book!
georgian cowboy doctor
Don’t ever stop making these videos. I know people want 10 seconds of entertainment but this is genuine travel journalism and exploration. We live in a time of global change and insecurity and documenting this is importent
how can people this isolated, be this humble and open to strangers,
while we are not even greeting strangers on the streets.
goosebumbs watching this
They have not become sarcastic and bitter from dealing with the stress of living among too many people and insane traffic. Rural life is simple.
That is actually how the whole nation is. To be more clear, the guest is highly valued in Georgia through centuries. The literature, religion, folklore and whole philosophy is based on the idea of the guest being blessing from god. The host is obligated to keep the guest safe, feed and entertained even if it costs him all. People are very welcoming and open hearted. As they have been raised with this philosophy for generations. Even now, in bigger cities, people are so much more welcoming and accepting than in other more renowned cultural countries that are considered to be also more futuristic and developed.
Keep those “longer videos” over the shorts!!! I love being transported to another land and keeping an open mind to understanding the many lifestyles that exist in this world!
Totally agree !!
Yes, please!
I agree!
Ditto
Agree! I’ve been seeking out longer content videos.
The editor exposing thomas first time 😂😂 good one
didn't believe it for a second anyways
As soon as he said that I was like that's not true and then they put this in. Had me laughing 😅
What happened?
@@FirmNo When Thomas said "I have never drunk this early" the editor follows with the "fact check" showing Thomas drinking even earlier a couple of times. :D
When he said that, I said out loud, "that's not true!" And then the fact check came haha
"If you don't have self-respect you have nothing to offer others" such a beautiful quote
Ushguli has intrigued me since the moment I heard about it much for the same reason as you all! I've lived in Georgia for the last two years, and December 2023 I visited for the first time with my family who were visiting at the time. Against all weather reports, we got more than 1 meter of snow while staying in Ushguli and got stranded 2 extra days before the road was passable. The drive back will forever be the sketchiest ride of my life! During our time in the village, we had delicious food and amazing hospitality despite not having power or heat. For one, my wife got very sick, and the community gathered medicine from their personal supplies (since there are no stores or pharmacies). We also drank a lot of chacha by candlelight in one of the towers, since there was nothing better to do!
It was certainly a once in a lifetime "seek discomfort" moment!
I imagine that staying in the tower for a night would be such a surreal experience that I'd like to try.
I'm always tearing up when they talk with lovely elderly people and they start talking about how we should be more closer together and take care of each other more~
That's probably always happened in society, and always will.
me too
Me too...
Such a wholesome episode, guys! I have so many things to comment:
1. I love the connection and respect you have towards the elderly (and how alcohol is ubiquitous in these interactions 🤣)
2. Cinematography and drone shots are impeccable, as usual
3. These former USSR countries episodes are always my favorite!
4. The helicopter ride looked like a FPV drone adventure 😂
5. The doctor is an absolute LEGEND!
6. I’ll never get over the fact that you randomly met Staffan, the man who represents Yes Theory in a nutshell!
Thanks for the effort of sharing these stories with us 🫶🏻
Thank you, I'd love to give you one friendly advice, We Georgians, don't like to be referred as former USSR country, Georgia is one of the ancient countries in the world, and deserves to not be mentioned as "former soviet country" ❤
just like we don't say, States of America as a former colony of England, France, and Spain, or Germany as a former Nazi Germany, we shouldn't refer Georgia as a former soviet country.
Understandable ❤
6 - I think about how crazy this is every single time Staffan is in a video. I love that man.
@@nanna1334 I understand your view, but I doubt they meant it in a demeaning way. Every place has ancient roots, whether it was inhabited by humans early on or not. I think Beatriz was stating their historical draw to it. For example one historic draw for me is the Viking Age (not relevant for this episode). We can understand and appreciate different places and cultures, but there are sooooo many places to appreciate. It's normal for us to have favorites, or to be drawn to a place because of history/ culture/ food/ people/ nature/ etc.
If they exclusively only referred to Georgia as a former USSR country, I can see how that would be a bit demeaning. However, we cannot know that is what they do based on a single mention of it. It is a former USSR country, and I think they were trying to tell us about something they have interest in, as opposed to what Georgia is at the core.
Just want to hug all those brave villagers, especially the old doctor. Great job guys for documenting this extraordinary place on our planet!
I am 46, and I cannot shake the feeling of inferiority within myself, when I think of these people living in a more fulfilling way. Working hard because they must, and because it is what is needed. Caring for and about each other in a way that seems so much more wholesome and real, than the fake and false modern city life. I doubt kids, teenagers, or even some people in their 20's could even comprehend what I am trying so poorly to say.
I feel you
Hey guys love your videos! Bit of constructive criticism - when travelling to isolated, poor villages like this one, please bring along a boxful of goodies, i e, basic necessities: Bread, cooking oil, flour, salt, sugar, yeast, macaroni, matches, toilet paper, painkillers etc. Will be the best $50 ever spent. Elderly residents can't carry too much back from the shops! Unfortunately in some countries, pensions are as little as $200 a month🥰
Respectfully, we don’t know what the brought or did for these people. They could have arranged for a weekly shipment of supplies for all we know.
@@tcolley You're right. I only mentioned this due to my experience with my own grandma.🥰.
@@nadanedd1131 I noticed at end of his trip to Yemen they showed a clip of him giving his hosts a lot of gifts
@@tcolley If anything, it would be nice if they mentioned it so they educate on good etiquette when visiting places like this. As a Kurd, people that have relatives in remote places like this do the same.
Yes, we expect they had manners to bring little gifts or supplies with them to the village - or their guide should educate them.
As a hermit... this place seems like a dream! I live alone in the woods in northern Minnesota in a 450sqft cabin. I have many deer and rabbits that roam my property and it makes me so happy to be in nature. It can be lonely sometimes, but I enjoy the peacefulness of being alone.
I'm basically a hermit in a city ha
@@chrisbarry9345 I can relate lol before living in Minnesota I lived in Los Angeles
Same here in Chicago 😂 recluse in my house.
I agree, it seems like it would be wonderful. I enjoy the peace and tranquility of being alone despite loneliness. My only hesitations are the fact that the place is cut off from supplies for months at a time, and that I don't speak the language, but if you learn enough of the language to get by and how to survive in their way and you're careful, it would be worth it.
My dad owned most of a little island outside of Cook. It had been two older geologists back in the mid 18oos. There were 5 cabins..old school..no electricity when he got there..and he raised a young family out there..even in winter! Was an amazing place!!!
🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪
Seeing people appreciate Georgia’s raw beauty brings so much joy to me. It re-awakens the love for my country that I sometimes forget I have. I hope you know the impact you made with this video. You will be remembered by those people you saw till the end of their lives. They will reminisce about your presence in the cold and lonely months of winter ahead. Thank you for portraying Georgia beautifully and do come back! You will be surprised how much this country has to offer!
With love,
From Georgia❤
And just like that, a trip to Georgia has been added to our bucket list
hedonism is great!
As Georgian, I am so glad that you are appreciative of our country🥰so excited🇬🇪🇪🇺
Lovely country, lovely people. Will definitely come back.
Can’t wait to welcome you guys into the EU. It would be great to be able to travel borderless into beautiful Georgia. Love from 🇮🇹🇪🇺.
I hope the Russian influence in your government will lessen soon and we can welcome you to the EU brother
Hope to one day travel to georgia as a eu citizen to a eu member state
Hope to welcome you soon georgia!
Greetings from Flanders 🖤💛
Thank you all for the support! We will meet in EU soon❤️
I don't know if it was planned, but thank you for posting this on our Independence Day! საქართველოს გაუმარჯოს! 🇬🇪
საქართველოს გაუმარჯოს! 🇬🇪
Your alphabet looks so special, love from Portugal
long live georgia. i have visited your country twice, its the most beautiful ❤
Ah 😂 if only Staffan was the encouraging voice in all of our minds!
I am in Tears 🇬🇪 It's the best feeling seeing your country's beauty and culture shown by you guys ! Thank you
"If you don't have self-respect, you have nothing to offer others" ... What a piece of knowledge! Thank you for bringing it.
I want to acknowledge how great it was of you to ask the question to the elder and how great your work is.
Thank you for sharing!
yes theory, please listen to this. Your videos are the only things I watch anymore that actually makes me FEEL something. The way you depict the places you go to and emphasize the importance of the things- I can’t thank you enough for opening my eyes time and time again. Please don’t ever stop making these videos- you still truly do not understand the reach you have
As per the caption at the end, they are stories so much more than just videos.
THE FEELING is what us as filmmakers are obligated to do - this is how we'll heal the world 🫶 Yes Theory inspire me so much
Agree
I am watching from Thailand, so beautiful landscape, kind people, even if many thing are quite difficult for living but they are strong enough to stay there, i am really respect. Love from Thailand.
Been here. What a place this was. The people, the food, the stunning views. The most crazy part was the roads to get there. Would definitely go back again.
Honestly I get the feeling that my generation is craving a lifestyle like this. Do they have the strength and selflessness it would take to live that kind of life? I dont know. But I think the small, tight-knit communities and simple lives is something a lot of us long for.
I completely agree
Most of our generation will fail epicly though tbh
@@joesr31 I still hope they try.
The yes theory editor needs a raise😂😂😂😂 the hat switching and fact checking thomas’ drinking 😂😂😂
and the advertisement with Stefan’s voice too 😂
As a fellow Georgian i would like to thanks you guys for spreading the word about us! this video makes me and rest of us very proud! thank you so much.
The georgians are incredibly nice people and are very welcoming. Without mentioning the very old and maintained cultured they managed to preserved on top of the freedom spirit that inhabits them and the stunning cuisine. Amazing video, amazing people, amazing country !
I don't know where are you from, but thank you ❤❤🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪 it makes me proud
How many isolated places does it take to make isolation feel isolated.
5 grams in silent darkness 😮😂❤

Yes.
I'm confused
I am planning to go to Georgia (and Ushguli) for a month in the summer, so your video came at the perfect time! Thanks for showing those beautiful landscapes to a wider audience!
good luck. try as many foods as you can,because there are too many
Have fun. Eat all the khachapuri!
Georgia is the most unique and hospitable country I’ve been to, you won’t regret it! 🇬🇪❤️
Go live there
I am SO grateful you chose to go the extra step in this journey for part two, you made an excellent point at the end.
Easily one of the best videos Ive watched on UA-cam in months. PLease dont change. LOVE this type of content. Thank you for bringing these areas to us!!
Imagine turning one of those villages into a Yes Theory settlement.
Build some greenhouses or a sustainable way of growing food during winter, have people visit to help out with renovating during summer.
...you would need some kind of military cargo helicopters to get supplies there though.
but man that place looks like paradise. :o
that would be amazing, and i think they would actually saving those towns from becoming unhabited ghosttowns in the future.
That ad was worth watching just for the idea of having stafan as my inner monologue
Me not blushing / Staffan
Thank you for the video. I appreciate this as much as I do your Syria and Maldova videos. I like the soul and sentiments captured. And thank you Staffan for mentioning the horse, that your prayers will include the horse too. It’s an old horse and without it, the doctor can’t really be a doctor for the village. 😊❤
makes me feel proud to be georgian, after all of these years of nonstop wars and yet here we are - still standing
Prayers to you guys. To be honest, I don't know much about Georgia but I will definitely read some articles now. Greetings from Switzerland
@@ILikeAmazingThings tysm, i love Switzerland alot aswell. It's such a beautiful country in my opinion and i would def love to visit it in the future
@@user-ci6dt4xy8r Aww cool, thank you :) Take care!
I love the energy Thomas, Staffan and Ammar is spreading to this world!
I knew immediately that this was going to be Georgia from those beautiful mountains in the first clip. Georgia is such a stunning country, I used to live there a few years ago and am happy to say that I'll be going back later this year! The people are so kind, strong and resilient. I miss it so much, there's nothing like it. It really does feel like you're stepping back into time. and as an artist, this country has brought so much inspiration to my work. ❤🇬🇪
I just found myself staring at the comment section for minutes wondering if I should post anything or not and then I remembered say yes! your team is beautiful. I’m so thankful that all of you are in existence. Thank you for doing the daring and thank you for being the loving people you are. villages like this, are around the globe, I think we really can get people to go as an experience that might just turn into a lifestyle
They should do a video where they take someone there who’s never left the village and show them around the world. That would be awesome!
Dude Staffan's jumping on Thomas' back is just pure joy to see 😀
Haha, glad you liked it! I couldn't resist / Staffan :)
@@YesTheory Yall are so cute its unbearable
YEAAAAAAAAAAAH! GEORGIA MENTIONED! DIDEBA SAKARTVELOS!!! 🇬🇪🇬🇪🇬🇪 Love Svaneti
on our independce day as well! May God bless Sakartvelo and its people until the end of times
Went to Georgia last year, Tbilisi was a wonderful place, but I did a few days in Kazbegi and WOW the view was breathtaking. Coming from Singapore where it is cityscape 100% of the time, I never felt more at peace.
@@jerome9141 Kutaisi and Svaneti are AMAZING aswell, if you ever go back you should definetly visit those places aswell!
Remote, sparsely inhabited with difficult weather conditions, yet stunningly beautiful. Love the devotion, testaments and convictions of their faith by the kindness, compassion and caring that they exhibit at every turn, in every word spoken and with each moment of their days. May God our Father be with them and bless them abundantly forever in His Kingdom, by His Grace. ♾
Super happy yall were able to make it back! It's very important to share the stories of people that live this secluded lifestyle, motivating others to keep it alive
Damn they did the Trip my Grandparents had to take to School!
This episode made me sad. A small mountain village like that would be my dream! Sad that everyone is leaving them. Love the doctor and his horse. So dedicated to the people. ❤
I once again paused my TV to let you know how incredible this episode is how wonderful it is that you captured these special moments or regardless of how UA-cam is all about short video content right now. you’re doing huge service to the world! 🎉🎉🎉🎉
As a Georgian who has been to Ushguli and Tusheti, big thanks for making this video and allowing the world to see our small yet beautiful part of the world. დიდი მადლობა!
I love finding out about places I have literally never heard of before like *Ushguli*
Man the Caucasus region is so bloody stunning. Breathtakingly beautiful.
18:09 I was pumped when Staffan appeared. Love that guy! He handled that 🚁 ride pretty good.
Thank you YES , I felt so connected with you and everyone; this is because of your profound style of delivery and being genuine
Please, never stop doing these type of documentaries, you truly are my favorite UA-cam channel and I really love to watch and to know the world and these stories and these people through you guys! It is really worth it, at least for me, that you guys go the extra mile to have the patience to fulfill the needs to make a great video and to share these stories the right way! Keep up the amazing work you are doing! Please never give up!
these places are so beautiful. meeting with old people teach you wisdom. thank you for taking us with you.
Thank y’all for doing these videos. It’s amazing to see the beautiful people and places that still exist, remote from moser society. They evoke a very melancholy feeling. Knowing how hard some live, how that way of life is being lost, how ungrateful we can be and also how much beauty there is in people.
I’ve enjoyed so many of your videos but this may be my favourite. It makes me so happy to see these villages and villagers lives being shared and immortalized. Their commitment to pure existence and preservation is so admirable - and frankly needs to be documented as more as more of these types of people and places are lost to time. Thank you for committing to sharing this beautiful story! ❤️
I traveled from kutaisi to mestia with a mate 4 years ago. Hands down the sketchiest road I've ever been on. We took a small plane back when we had to go :'). It was one of the best trips I ever had. The people are so nice and generous, I can relate on drinking in the morning, when I was offered a shot at 10 am by a local for example. Keep up the great work guys, much love!
I'm not crying, I'm just proud ❤🇬🇪
I've been watching yes theory from Georgia for about 5 years, feels great to hear you guys talking about and appreciating this country :) thank you!
A story well put. Well done. You said these kinds of videos are not so much normal nowadays, but I on the other hand really appreciate such videos. Thank you for taking me back to the time and making me happy and relaxed.
Thank you for your commitment to the 2nd part of this journey to enable you to share this beautiful remote country with us. It is incredibly sad to think in the not too distant future these villages will be empty and forgotten
In Georgia, bread, cheese and drink are life. Always with a poetic toast.
Sounds like heaven, so simple but so rich in culture, loved that the mountains have their own spices and Thomas immediately spotted it out as foreign.
Poetic toast 🍷 🇬🇪 favorite part
Thank you for shining a light on things not many UA-camrs find dawning to document. This had me in tears by the end of it really realizing how much these generations are slipping through our fingertips and we should truly preserve them and their cultures for as long as possible. For us and for them. This was beautiful, thank you.
I was also in tears with so many realizations! This episode was deep
I’m so glad you hung in there for Tusheti. I’ve been several times, and each time has its own magic. You can totally drive there in the summer, though. Bravo for making this happen.
The doctor's words about he is the only one in the village who can take care of sick people, melt my heart and I got tears
thomas completely lying about early booze was the funniest shit
I thought it seemed familiar that he "hadn't ever had alcohol this early" hahaha
the editors did not let that lie SLIDE 🤣 -thomas
Did you guys intentionally drop this video on the Independence day of Georgia? Gives it an extra value ❤
Beautiful video representing a little bit of Georgia, people, places, mountains 💕 thank you for filming this and documenting the lives of local people
Thank you for capturing and sharing this journey. It is truly special. Feeling said though as communities fall more and more apart. Small remote villages are dying and it breaks my heart. In the end the people around us makes life so rich and beautiful. xoxo
Please never do shorts! We need these deep, meaningful stories 😊
hehe if we ever do them it wouldn't be stopping to do these stories, we will see!
If they built a large greenhouse connected to a house, I bet some younger people would be willing to move there. If you're young, healthy and can grow all your own food, what more do you need in life? Maybe they can organize an event in the summer and have a lot of young people come with materials to build a greenhouse and house.
And healthy retirees would come too, if the property is affordable!
They’ll also need the conveniences of hospitals in case of any accidents, maybe some horses for easy mobility, and even better - build a road to have a much safer path of travel to villages like these.
Thank you for going the extra mile (literally) and putting in the time to make these kinds of videos. There's so much more to share than just reaction videos and shorts, I really appreciate all of the amazing videos you guys keep making!!
As an Eastern Orthodox Christian, thank you for showing these beautiful churches and their icons! Very special!
Every video of Yes Theory never ceases to amaze me.... Nowadays we live in such a fast and busy world, but forget how beautiful, quiet and peaceful it can be. Those people's view of the world is so beautiful and inspiring
That’s all by design sadly the evil doers or “powers that be” don’t want us connected to nature and our cultures so they can be forgotten and erased. I truly hope there is an anti-tech movement like Thomas said and we return to nature and simple living.
What lovely people. God bless them. Maybe arrange an air delivery of a years worth of foods and supplies for those humble villagers. I’m sure they’d be delighted for the blessing.
I hiked to Ushguli some years ago, and after that I did a multi day hike starting from Omalo. I've seen a lot from this world in my years of travelling and mountaineering, but Tusheti is one of the most beautiful places I've ever experienced! I will go back for sure!
BTW, I held my breath on that helicopter until Stefan made me laugh! I love Stefan ❤️ His energy is contagious 😍
Beautiful. I live alone in the middle off nowhere. I appreciate these types of videos because they share the silence. Some how we must learn that what comes around goes around. We must learn to love our neighbors.. and that love will return. As for chatter in your brain good news. Getting old. over 65.. the brain starts to become silent. The silence brings so much peace. Thanks for sharing,
That doctor is a true saint. Bless his heart and may he go on to save many more.
suddenly village's population grew by 700%
"I don't want to drink"
"Just pick up a glass and say something!"
Love ittttt!!!!~ haha~
I was just thinking on these journeys they are always drinking and I don't drink so what an awkward situation it'd be for me to be there!
Then the guy in the back says he doesn't want to drink!
What a relief!
I'm sure you hear this all the time but please do not ever stop making longer form content. Watching your travels and learning more about different places, just like these remote villages in Georgia, really opens my eyes to better understanding how people find ways to live in the most unique conditions. The resiliency of people never ceases to amaze.
New sub here hello from down under (Australia) thanks for taking me along for the journey. The doctor who wont leave because of his commitment to caring for the locals a true legend indeed .
Your stories are so inspirational that my husband and I are each doing our own journey over the next year. We realized the importance of your messages. Thank you for your stories. They do inspire!
please never stop these styles of videos, because the value is beyond the likes and the views it gets
Well done guys for making it to high mountains of Georgia 🇬🇪. Really loved this video (unlike the previous one from Georgia). Thanks a lot ❤ and well done to the editor for writing 'fearless heart' instead of 'brave' as the meaning of USHGULI !
Thank you for traveling around the world and showing us these beautiful people and places. You preserve these places through documentation and spreading knowledge.
YESSSS MORE OF GEORGIAAAAA
you are the georgia i need
I wish that these kind of videos would be longer and would go deeper into both the stories of the people as well as the experiencs that Thomas and Staffan for example have.
The part with the Doctor brought me to tears.... May God bless him mightily.
Love your curiosity, the thirst for knowledge & understanding of the world, people, communities, lands... and then sharing this :-).
When stuff hits the fan, it will force people to flee the cities. And the few that are lucky enough to make it will repopulate and build places like these villages. It is the circle of life.
One of my dream to go to Georgia, this country is unbelievable, people, food it is the best. I hope this villages won't desapier. With all globalization and all anxiety that we are suffering, covid and wars, more and more we want to be on nature and e desconecte from all rhis s***
I was in Ushguli 1.5 years ago, an unforgettable experience. You feel like a pioneer, we talked with local residents and walked there. I'm from Russia and I love Georgia and Svaneti very much
I finished this video not realizing the duration. Great storytelling! Keep it up!
I live in Chicago and I am so lonely in life that I talk to myself the exact same way that lady did with the flowers. 🌸 😂
I feel you. Just take care of yourself, love him and everything will be in place. It's not bad to be lonely, it's bad to feel it's yout fault 😊
Go live there
Right!!!!! I talk out loud to myself all the time ha!!!!
That's so normal and respect to you for being confident enough to do that - I do too in public sometimes but record it on voice memos with my phone so it looks like I'm speaking to someone lol
@@smilemorewithsammy that’s actually a good idea 😂
