You were so much better at buying souvenirs than I was... I somehow brought home 4 things for my dog and 0 for my parents lol.
AHAH I sincerely laughed out loud when I read your comment 😂😂 I don't feel like I did that well~ If I had had more time before going home, I would have got things that better matched each person 😓
You're SO cute!! ❤ I'm living in the US now. Your videos bring me back so much memories of Korea! How exciting going back to your home country! 😃💕 Hope you had a wonderful time with your family!
Happy New Year! 🪅🎊
Thank you so much!! I definitely did! I was able to see both sides of my family so it was a great and much needed trip ❤️ Happy New Year!!! 🎊🎊
영상 즐겁게 잘 봤어요~~
👍👍👍👍👍
당신의 삶을 응원합니다
🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
i was thinking about you recently, so i’m glad to see you uploading again. the editing is so nice (like always).
p.s. i just finished ttmik level 1, and i tagged you in a community post because you are my #1 inspiration for learning korean. thank you SO much for helping me stay motivated. 💕
Cheers from TTMIK level 5.🥳I also highly recommend the language game Influent for vocab building. 화이팅!
In a community post here on YT?? I didn't see the notification... Hmm that's odd. I'll go look for it~ AND I'M HONORED TO HAVE ENCOURAGED YOU TO START LEARNING KOREAN!!!!!!
Even though I don’t get to see you in the regular. This definitely makes up for lost time. Happy you got to come home and glad you made back safely! Merry Christmas and Happy New Year , friend! ❤😊 Look forward to more content!
YOU NEED TO COME VISIT ME!! YOU KEEP SAYING YOURE GOING TO COME AND THEN DONT!! 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡
Ahh I've missed your videos!! I'm so glad you've been able to spend Christmas at home and I wish you the very best for this new year. (I know it might sound cliche but you keep inspiring me to keep learning Korean). Best wishes from Spain
Ahahah I wasn't even away that long~ 😂 I appreciate being missed 💅🏼 ahahah And thank you! You too! Happy new year~!
as someone who is also of Hispanic heritage I just gotta say as eye-rolling as this will sound lol you do not look 27 at all lol, i get the same reaction being Puerto Rican, something in our genes helping us look way younger ha. idk why im amazed at the korean starbucks tumblrs ha but i am, i love all the cute stuff available there.
Haha 😂 I am not rolling my eyes at all~ Even after having graduated from university, strangers thought I was in high school haha I'm used to it~ I'm also a bit relieved to hear you say that because just a few weeks ago I started to notice some forming wrinkles 😂😂😂
Enjoy being home for a month and have a good new year. Enjoyed the video and if you decide to do more of your content on IG that’s okay too! 😊
Happy new year! 🎊 I'm glad you enjoyed the video~
Wow loved the video😍 and it's so lovely how you got gifts for your family ❤ love watching you beautiful Natalia🙈❤❤
The ending aimost made me cry, I don't even know why
☺️
I also don't know why ahaha it wasn't sad~ 😂
@@NataliaGarza Exactly! 😭😂
Finally nice to see an upload again ;) I hope you had nice Christmas time with your family and friends, Happy New Year!! 🎉
I most definitely did~ Thank you haha Happy New Year!!
Happy 2023, Natalia
Thank you~!! I did~ 🤍🎄 I hope you did as well~ 🥹🤍
I’m the first to watch this!!Love your channel ❤
Oooooo I've never seen your username before 👀 ahah
@@NataliaGarza ❤
hiii natalia! the sticky note and little charm that you said you didnt know who you got them for ended up with me :)) had so much fun, happy holidays 🥰❤
Ahahaha I thought about that when I was editing 😂😂😂😂 I had fun too~ I look forward to hearing more of your stories~!
Hope you enjoy your time with your family. Also, I have to say, your skin looks great. What have you been doing? Any skin product recommendations?
It’s actually funny you ask because I posted a skincare video a while back 😂😂 Outside of the products in the video, I have a cica moisturizer from Nature Republic that I’ve loved for about 2 years now. If you’re interested in checking out the skincare video I mentioned, here’s a link!

I hope you had a lovely time with your family! Where is your phone case from? It’s so cute! 😍
Awww thank you!! I did!!!! 🥹🥹🥹 As for the phone case, I got it from a random cellphone accessory store in Hongdae~! 🤍
loved the vid! did you vlog going back home to texas?
I didn't~ I thought about vlogging since I don't have many pictures or videos with my family, but in the end I decided not to since my parents aren't used to being on camera~ I also wanted to focus on spending some quality time with my family since I don't know when I'd be back~~ Thanks for the interest though~ 🤍
Ahhhh, you got to go home! I’m so happy for you 🥹 Also why are souvenirs so much prettier in Korea?😂
Ahahaha are they??? Maybe I’m just good at finding souvenirs~~ 😁😁
I have tried everything, tried changing my surroundings, tried using different resources but i haven't been able to get my motivation back to studying korean, I'm not into kpop or kdramas anymore but i still love the language itself and I'm lost, i don't know how to get back to studying, i just don't have any motivation ㅠㅠㅠㅠ i took a break worth almost a whole year, thinking it might help, but now I'm even more lost on how to restart studying again ㅠㅠㅠㅠ
Idk if it'd help you, but I just follow Koreans on Instagram and translate their posts. So I'm still able to improve my Korean without dedicating study time
Lmao “America doesn’t have cafes.” Lol I know what you mean though. It’s just different. I’m in Chicago now and they have some pretty cool cafes. But the weather is crappy soooo…
꿀잼👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Omg i have a question about your tmoney card that you are reusing! Did it had money on it or no? Because I left Korea without using all the money I got on mine and I wonder if it will still be there when I’ll come back at some point? 😅
It had money on it!! Surprisingly!
ive also been feeling old since i was 26/27.... guess thats the new 30 🤣
and ugh!!!! i should've been there in December!!! you know how many starbucks i went to looking for ones that say jeju?! i had to settle for one with the 이호태우말등대..... (AND I WAS IN JEJU WHEN I GOT THAT CUP BUT NO CUPS SAYING JEJU) i was so sad lol i did get my 경주 cup though^^ while in 경주
IM STILL SO JEALOUS i wanted a jeju cup😭 i guess i do have the "jeju greem cafe" one though. but its not as cute as your jeju cup 힝ㅠㅠ
seoul station starbs had busan and gyeongju but ironically... not seoul lmao fjsksbdhskandjks UGH
well... i was there in early november and they had lots of christmas cups... but seoul station was the only one with cups with city names. and we looked at every starbs we passed lol
AHAH Sounds like you got better cups than me though~~ I couldn't find the bigger city cups I was looking for~ If I hadn't already given gifted the cups to my grandparents I would said we should trade 😂
@@NataliaGarza 😅 my 그림카페 is same size, but i think my gyeongju one is wider/fatter(?). and i also got the tumbler with lid for gyeongju. they were too cute and i couldnt decide so i got both but only use the tumblr🤣 i go back in march for spring break... so i shall try again🤣 maybe i will get lucky~ i will only be in seoul this time though. i wont be traveling :(
@@NataliaGarza haha idk why i read "better" as "bigger"🤣 i was like "what makes her think that?" ㅋㅋㅋ 졸려요ㅠㅠ
Ahhhh yeah if you're only here a week, then staying in Seoul is definitely better~ I hope you end up finding some mugs you like haha
are you greek?
Aha noooo I'm mexican
@@NataliaGarza oh the tios and tias misled me
@@Alkestisj ahhhh that’s the word for aunts and uncles in Spanish~ is it the same in Greek???
@@NataliaGarza it is! it sounds like thios (θi.os)/ thia (θi.a)
Belated Merry Christmas Natalia & a happy 2023!! The way you were talking about your Insta content being less time consuming is kind of how I view UA-cam Shorts (as opposed to "normal" UA-cam videos). I get where you're coming from. I love your UA-cam stuff by the way, and I would probably follow you on Insta but I'm just not interested in Insta as a platform. That's great that you'll be staying in KR for at least another year. You go girl!
Same to you~ Happy holidays and new year!! 🎉 AHA I would share my reels to UA-cam if the way they were displayed on my channel was nicer to look at but alas~
