This was the time I needed
In this video I finalized the crafting of my milk thistle jelly and set up some plantain oil - oh and a charm! It was beautiful, calm, and just what I needed :)

“Hello little spider, come on, let’s take you outside”. My heart is full! That made my morning. Your kindness makes the world better.
This warmed my heart too! ❤️
beautifully said, Lesly.
I understand why you left rural Virginia, you need the space to be you, but your energy is noticeably calmer.
Agree much more calming video hoping her return trip will be more meandering after all there’s 48 states to explore
I agree and you seem happier. 💞
I also moved to Washington and found so many things to love there but ultimately, it wasn't for me. It was beautiful but too constant, too expensive, and I found the people less friendly then my home state of Illinois. My husband and I moved back to IL, but we never regretted moving out there because it was such a great learning experience and adventure. We might not put down permanent roots here in IL either but I love the adventure and it's a great plan to explore lots of different places to see where your spirit meshes best. Best of luck!
I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who's felt the same way - it's a wonderful place but you put it perfectly just too constant
Sorry you encounter wrong people. I born and raised never left Washington state( moving out of state) visit other places around the world . I sorry the people here we're rude unfriendly. 😭. We have many people here who are not from here. 💜🤟
MY daughter moved to WS 8 years ago. She and I love the scenery BUT NOT The Politics... JS
I feel the same way. And now so many people have and are moving here. It’s just too crowded, even up here in Stanwood (Lake Goodwin) where I live. It used to be so quiet, so beautiful and it felt very rural. Not anymore. It’s sad because I love the trees, the greenery, the rain and the smell of fresh soil, but I too hate the politics. I’ve been here 29 years now and it saddens me to no end that we’ve lost so much of what this place was. I hope you find peace and joy wherever you end up🌸
Hello! I live in Illinois too! Near Starved Rock, very peaceful
Annie I am searching for my soul home, I am retired and can go anywhere . I have been looking everywhere and its a true struggle. So many of the awakened ones are in search for that place.
I'm in the UK, having the same situation.
@@EvelynKirkham1962 💜💜💜
Right there with you all!!
Listen to the whisper.
Me too Traci. Was to spend last year experiencing several places but got held at home. Just starting to head out for the search now. Many geographies have changed so much as the earth shifts and populations shift and people have shifted socially in so many ways. The certainties and innocence of my youth about place are a lost dream. And the places spiritually awakening people went for a very long time have morphed too. Blessings on your travels!!! And may we retain our humor and radiance.
Annie, please come to Michigan. You would absolutely love our plant life, Animals, rocks, stones, gems and crystals. We have 316 mountains. There is so many forests, valleys and glens. There are over 11,000 lakes, not to mention we are surrounded by the Great Lakes! We get every season, summers aren’t southern. LOL. It is also much cheaper than a lot of places. We would love to have you. #TryMagickalMichigan !!
I agree our state is gorgeous...but Ann Arbor is one of the most expensive places to live in America!
Is it cheaper then California? 😬
@@asloppyjoedonut9616 not in Ann Arbor. The University of Michigan is there. My mother pays 10,000 a year just for property taxes in a cookie cutter sub. Homes are 500,000 there.
I was thinking the same thing! Come to west Michigan! It's cheaper than the east side but still has a lot to offer!
@@harley8680 why would she need to live in Ann Arbor??
Kalamazoo rocks.
I've lived in western Washington my whole life - I definitely agree with you about the cost of living being a down side to the area. But I disagree with you about there being no fall. It could be because this is the only place I've really experienced the season, but personally, it's my favorite of the year. We still have the evergreen trees, but the deciduous ones all have such wonderful colors in the fall. There is reprieve from the summer heat, a new season of drizzly rain after a few months of drought, the grasses and other small plants come back to life with that new rain, and the air just smells different - fresh yet earthy.
Maybe it was the area she lived in? Not all areas grow or develop the same. In more earthy areas, the fall season really thrives and you can even find toadstools and various types of herbs that wouldn’t grow as easily or at all as in other areas.
Fall is beautiful here isn't it 🍂🍁🍂🍁🌻🍁🍂🍁🌻
I came to the comments to say this. I love Fall in Western Washington. It's beautiful and lovely!
Yes! I love our fall season. It's perfect for me.
Have you ever considered to jump into the tiny house movement? You could live in a lovely custom made cottage on wheels and put it anywhere you like or could afford. I've seen many people around the world especially in Usa, is living in tiny houses because of the high costs of living, they end up being free, of mortgage, some of them even live off the grid, saving lots of money. I totally see you living in a green witch tiny house!! Love and light💜
You know I've played around with the idea before but I've never been very sure of it but who knows I may just have to give it a go one day!
@@AnnabelMargaretGreen well, if you end up getting one someday, I'll hope you give us a tour, I bet it will be magical, like you!🧡
That is EXACTLY what we are doing here in the greater Portland, Oregon area. We’re hoping to start building in early spring. 🥰
I was going to suggest the same idea! There are plenty of good channel here on UA-cam and I'm addicted to those video right in these days. There are tiny houses SO beautiful and especially the movable ones are lovely!
Moreover, since we're talking about affordable livestyles, why not dig into off-grid, earthships, and frugal/zero waste movements? I'm dipping my nose into those now, because I'm Italian and with the consequences of big economical problems in my family (due to my dad) and I love the idea of find a home for "cheap" to renovate in the future and have lifestyle as sustainable as I can.
Obviously many things here are not or just partially doable but..why not take a piace here and there and put them together?
It depends, if you break down or the weather is completely awful, the price to get it fixed is very expensive and it’s mainly good for on the go, but not for long term, unless you’re willing to pay the price.
Just before I watched this video today I had the insight that Vermont would be a beautiful place for you to explore if you have the time. It's one of my favorite places. It has its own special magic and it seems like you might appreciate the vibe.
Vermont has long been on my list of places to explore and i would love to spend some time out there :)
I was sending New England as well. ☺️
I live in Vermont.it's extremely expensive here. Beautiful but not cheap at all. Taxes are insane as well
@@susanc.houghtondogandfolka3163 I agree. If you own a house the property taxes are through the roof. Also the winters are long and brutal. Otherwise I love that there is less traffic and beautiful scenic country.
@@AnnabelMargaretGreen I absolutely love New Hampshire !! Vermont’s neighbor ☺️ I’m sure Vermont is fantastic too just not as much experience there
I made a big move going from bustling urban to edge-of-the-world rural and it was surprisingly wonderful. But now, 12 years later, things have changed: my health, my friends have moved, venues closed, etc. So I am looking.
I realize a person can find magical places but it may be only for a while since both the place and person change. And that's okay...part of the adventure.
I feel like you would love BC Canada. The nature is otherworldly.
If you've never been there, you might want to spend a few weeks in Michigan's Upper Peninsula & Lake Superior. I'm moving back there after living all over for the last 11 years. It's rural, winters are brutal & last much longer than elsewhere, but it's also magickal. Go there in Summer for a few years and you won't want to leave.
You seem pretty self-sufficient and resourceful... that's what it takes to live in the U.P. Lots of people only stay for the Summer and live elsewhere in Winter... nice if you can do that, but the locals respect people who are resilient and can stay through Spring & eventually become a local. Pasties (a meat & potato hand pie) are a local cuisine... there are recipes online if you want to try that first. 🙂
You never disappoint with your content, Annie. Safe travels for when you head back to Washington ❤️
Thank you
Your videography should be used in movies. It really sets a tone and is very intriguing. Love it. I’m happy you’re home.
Before you give up on Washington, I highly recommend you check out the other side of the state. The Spokane area and the rural towns to the north are wonderful.
You have the massive Columbia river, hundreds of lakes, and abundant life. You have that hard reset of the seasons, with fairly mild winters and the cost of living is much lower than that of the west coast. :)
You might find your song there. :)
I go back to where I was born and bred to visit but its no longer my home. It was changing when I left and its so different now I could never return. My home now is rural near the sea and cheaper to live, so I got lucky! Lovely vid very peaceful, thankyou.
Lovely Annabel✨Love how you share your life.Thank you for letting me be a part of it 🌟
I live in Michigan and we have all 4 seasons..it's beautiful here in the fall.winter can get cold.upper part of lower Michigan has abit more woodlands and more peaceful..take care of u self.blessed be
I'll add it to the list! Thank you!
Here in Northeastern Lower Michigan the cost of property is very reasonable.
As a Washington Native who has lived outside my state, I have not found a place I enjoy better, perhaps it's the familiar part of it. I guess maybe I am also used to the cost of living here and after living in Hawaii it doesn't seem as bad lol. Speaking of Hawaii, living there I learned I did not like perpetual summer like I thought I would. For you it may seem like there is no fall, for me, I definetly feel that change, but it is maybe more subtle than what you are used to. The leaves are just starting to turn and soon will be a glow of red, orange and green. I was super happy to find that the plantain grows in abundance in my yard, I also have chamomile as well, it's been fun to discover them after all this time. My figs will be ripe soon and I am looking forward to making some fig jam this year.
Nothing beats a New England Fall! 😉😉😉💕🍂🍁 I’m excited for your next adventure! Meanwhile I’m Melting at 91 degrees here in Louisiana today!
I can hear the homesickness in your voice. From one Virginia native to another: it may not be Skyrim, but it’s *home*
You would love Eastern Washington. I live in the Leavenworth area right next to woods and mountains. It’s so different than Seattle.
Right! Seattle and surrounding areas are the WORST parts of WA. There is so much more this state has to offer.
Agreed. Olympic Peninsula here.
I was thinking the same thing. I feel like she would like central Washington more. Totally different than the west side. Unfortunately prices aren't much better though.
@@lauramonahan9343 My husband and I would love to move to the Olympic peninsula. We're hoping to do so in about 5 years or so. So gorgeous and peaceful there. We really love the Brinnon area.
I live in Europe and I've had to move away from places I loved several times because I couldn't afford the cost of living and there were other issues that forced me to leave. I totally know how heartbreaking it can be to leave behind a place you're in love with. My favourite place is Devon in the UK, I'm currently living here and I am very in love with this place... but I'll have to leave in a few months. It's sad and though I love it so much, I know I'm not meant to settle here. There is another place that is calling my soul, I haven't been there yet but I will hopefully get to explore it soon. Devon will always have a special place in my heart, even if I'm not meant to live here forever. ❤️
I moved to the San Juan islands from California three years’ ago, and for me the biggest shock was adjusting to seasonal changes. It feels the opposite of “constant” to me, but wildly different from Seattle. I also have health issues that make heat impossible, and the islands are fabulous for someone like me who struggles with extreme temperatures.
It absolutely feels like “fall” to me right now. We don’t have the dramatic colors, but I’m still reeling from how quickly the days shorten, the sky darkens, the temperature drops, the rain and wind have now started, and my horses are busy growing their winter fur.
Financially, my comparison is California, and so it feels almost ridiculously inexpensive. Island life does raise prices, but we compensate by growing a lot of our own food and planning better for what to get when we go to the mainland. The other thing I’ve never experienced until the islands is an informal barter and favors culture. That’s probably saved us many thousands of dollars here already.
But I had to live in many many places in the world before finding the one that feels right.
It’s always worth continuing to explore. You’ll know when you know 💁♀️.
I too am having trouble understanding what is meant by not having fall here in Washington. Is it because we have so many conifers (Evergreen state)? We have lots of oaks and maples too. We definitely have 4 seasons, although 3 of them are wet, and none of them are extreme (this summer was a bit of an exception and may be the way of the future). Fall has definitely arrived in PNW as of this weekend, my son is asking when we can turn on the furnace, but I am trying to hold out until October.
Thank you for bringing us along on this journey! The way you share the fluidity and future unknowns of your story feels very relatable. It feels raw and genuine and I find it all very comforting. Your self awareness and purposeful reflection is also such an inspiration. Keep following your heart, you’re doing great ❤️
I'm born and raised in WA and in the areas closer to Mt Rainer (south of the Puget Sound) and we certainly have a fall. Right now the leaves are changing to fall colors, some are falling and it's just wonderful to see. The more east you go or south more towards Olympia you'll see more changes. Best wishes on your future travels.
I could totally see her vibing with Olympia!
You’re amazing. I am praying for your healing. God is with you.
I have been here, in WA, since 96. I started in Renton and have made our way South and West. We are now in a great place. Travel South to continue to love WA.
Eastern Washington has Fall. We are the "dry side" of the state and have more real seasons, perhaps you can come spend some time on this side when you drive back?
I've been on a similar journey. I grew up in the mountains of North Carolina. But shortly after college I decided to up and move to Oregon because I loved the Pacific Northwest. It is it's own kind of beautiful - the big trees, rocky coastline, everything about it felt so perfect for me. But it was like, timing wasn't right? Or perhaps I became homesick for the Appalachian mountains. Regardless, I came home after just 6 months there and stayed in my North Carolina mountain town for some time until recently moving to a city (for work). Now also taking a look up north on the east coast (hey, Maine, what's up?) I love following this journey of yours and thank you for always having such a calming presence! 🦋
I would certainly love to sit on that bank and paint the view. Absolutely lovely! Virginia had quite a few spots similar in appeal as does my current residence here in Arkansas. However, the scene shown was so inviting and peaceful, it begs for capture in various media.
Love your videos. Beautiful.
Thank you for sharing!
clarity if such a gift...safe journeying
I cannot believe how fast the plantine works. It is amazing. I rub it together in my hands with a small amount of water then rub it on the bites. Itch gone.
My blessed sister, you have certainly moved me and blessed you have crossed my path
My heart really is touched by your life thank u a million times Annabel Margaret
Plantain (which I pronounce 'plantin') makes a good cough syrup, too. I've rescued several old jars from the community recycling center's glass bins.
I live in BC, Canada, only a little above the border, like can drive to get to the US in half an hour. I know exactly what you mean about the cost of living in the Pacific Northwest area (or in my case, Pacfic BC). My family and I will probably move out east at some point too, just so we can also reduce our cost of living. But, I will say, you haven't experienced the fall yet properly because ours starts right around now, and goes until mid to late October. So, just wait. The fall color is coming.
That’s what I was thinking! We had such a weird summer and now it’s finally going back to “normal” weather here and I’m so ready!
You’d love Nova Scotia. Nova Scotia has seasons, tons of wild weeds, mountains, and a really relaxed atmosphere. The people are so accepting and nonjudgmental.
Also free healthcare.
Plantain is so amazing. The leaves we have where I live in Australia are longer and less rounded. I love to collect and dry it. It's in all my balms and the young leaves are good in a salad. We also add it dried and ground into our green stock powder! Nice to hear from you Annie ❤
Broad leaf and narrow leaf! I have both in my yard in WA! 💕
@@Rooskitooski Me too, here in W. Oregon!
Thank you for including us on these adventures ❤
Thank you for another peaceful relaxing video. ❤❤❤
Try Michigan. We have all four beautiful seasons, The lakes and rivers and estuaries are phenomenal and we have such a plethora of wild plants that carry health benefits you could create a copious pharmacy.
Yeah, as long as you stay away from the central to SE portion.
@@psychopompous3207 how come?
@@nickmarcs4802 Because that is where the ghetto resides. Not all of it, but that includes Grand Rapids, Detroit, Saginaw, Flint, Battle Creek, Kalamazoo, etc...these places are ghetto AF. The northern half of the UP, or the UP itself, is much nicer.
Yes! I was going to suggest Michigan also.
@@psychopompous3207 Uh, no. Do you live in any of those cities? i live in Flint, as any big city there are problem areas. Same for Saginaw where I work. There are so many great parks and green spaces, lakes etc. camping, hiking, kayaking...
Can’t wait for your next journey. It’s such a joy watching you and following you.
Enjoy your journey don't over think it. Thank you for sharing. I live in England but feel my ancestors lands some place else its a funny feeling that searching for "home" the land holds us tho xx
Im from nys and looking to leave for many reasons. You're young and will find the place that says home to you. The great thing about going home to VA is family and knowing the land will always embrace you. 😊 NYS is great for a variety of reasons, including foliage, so is WA, Maine, Vermont, Tennessee, etc. So many states so many good things. You'll find your happy space. You'll know it in your heart.
Me living in Oregon and visiting family in Tacoma, WA. I can tell you, they definitely have fall. I feel so nostalgic around fall time and wish to go back around that time of year but can't do it due to it being way more expensive to travel up there then down here.
You are speaking to my heart. My husband and I moved to WA from FL five years ago, and now we are moving back. Leaving WA is going to break my heart, but it's the best thing for us right now. I understand that complex mix of emotions that comes from loving a place that is ultimately not for you right now. Safe travels.
I’m so excited for you .. ☀️ I feel the same way.. I am from cape cod and every summer in Maine ..but have been stuck in mining town in mOntana for 20 yrs.. the smoke all summer .. no seasons and snow make it hard for me to go out ..I would love to move back to New England.. I used to camp in White Mountains of NH every fall 🧡
You'd probably love New Hampshire! Specifically the Conway area, it's lovely! And the COL is good, all things considered! Plus there are seasons! My husband used to live there and he talks about going back all the time :)
This is a beautiful video, Annie. I’m right at the border of Tennessee and Virginia, and I don’t think I could ever leave the landscape. There’s nothing quite like it! I understand the difficulties associated with some of the people here when you live a life like I do, but the landscape is just something special that I couldn’t leave if I tried. Honestly, I feel like you’d love Pennsylvania because it’s quite similar to this region. I was born in PA, and I still miss it tremendously. It’s a very similar landscape to the area I live in now, but PA is wonderful, particularly western PA. Eastern PA has a lot of Amish in the countryside, which is great, but it’s just not my cup of tea. Western PA is my favorite! And they have big seasons! Anyway, you’re an incredible person, and I can’t wait to witness your journey to finding where you’d like to plant your roots!
Will you ever share your beautiful tattoos with us and the reason/meaning behind them. They look incredable. XO
The detail in your tattoo is wonderful, very vivid! Wonderful video as usual. Blessed be and safe travels!
Oh my dear love I have missed some of your videos. But I’m getting all caught up now. Your videos are so calming. Thank you so much for taking along your journey.
Keep searching “goldy locks”, somewhere in this big, beautiful country there is a spot that will be right for you. One day, I also want to find a nice cottage by a lake where hubby and I can retire to.
We just moved our kids to Missouri near the Arkansas border. Gainsville Missouri actually. We chose it there because it is in a growing zone 7a. It gets a couple of months really hot and humid, usually July and August. But if you go up just a tad into zone 6 of Missouri it will be a little cooler but still, have the benefit of being in a healthy plant growing zone. To live there is much much cheaper. In the area of Jefferson City Missouri, it is a 6a which means you will get all four seasons. It is not an area of tornados or other scary things. The population is about 42,000 so it is big enough but not to big and you should be able to get work...although I am not sure what you do. My daughter grew up in Wyoming and has lived in Idaho for the last 9 years. They are absolutely loving Missouri! They bought a house on 9 acrers for only 69,000! You could find a place to rent easily for around $500. The area is very soothing on the soul. I see your struggle and thought this might give you food for thought. If you want to chat I am here or Facebook.
When I listen to you talk about Virginia it reminds me of how I feel about NE Iowa, where my grandma lived. There was the Upper Iowa River and nights running around barefoot chasing lightening bugs and a peace that I always felt when going there. It was such a peaceful place for my soul. When you speak about Virginia it makes it's just how I feel about Iowa. Thank you for sharing this.
Make the journey count,destinations are magical unknown's,love your calm energy x
I have lived all over the planet by this point and I've grown to love each place. This makes it difficult to decide where I want to settle...I am increasing leaning towards Chile, but I love my country and I don't think I could permanently leave it. I even miss Tampa.
Lovely seeing so many fellow Michiganders on here. Our state is pretty and I'm sure you'd love a visit but I won't repeat what others have said. Seems like Hazel's loving the visit to Virginia. Might have to visit. It's lovely.
Mason jars of all kinds are just a wonderful thing.
Minnesota has a beautiful fall season!
It's always so soothing to watch your videos.
I love Washington State too and honestly I can't imagine myself living anywhere else, but you are correct it is extremely expensive. I hope in time when you are in Washington we would cross paths. I've slowly watched you grow the past couple years I've been following you. I give you Kudos and all that you do. It takes a strong spirit. And I admire that, as well as feeling lucky to watch what you share.
I think you would love Maine! All four seasons, very bio diverse, not too hot, cheap living (in rural areas)
This spot is absolutely amazing. I recently moved to the busy city in Los Angeles and absolutely miss living in the midwest, your vlogs keep me sane with these beautiful sounds and sights. Thank you for sharing! Always happy to learn and be inspired by you !
I hope it works out with the cabin! That bowl is utterly gorgeous btw. I’m in desperate need of some peace. I must schedule it in from now on. Until then, a little time out with your videos helps xx
I love the mystymornings, I never knew that is what plantain looked like I see it everywhere it has a mild bitter taste, I used to sometimes pick chew on it when I was a child out of curiosity.
After your video on making your charm, I realize that over the past few months I have been seeing flash visuals of myself taking the lavender and mint I have growing digging out my rarely used (because I am terrible at it ) sewing machine making a small bag and putting in the lavender and mint (I have both chocolate and spearmint growing) so I did just that and have the tiny bag mildly wedged between my rearview mirror and roof in my car. I really need to pay more attention to those tiny flash messages I receive at times, I get them ignore them, but then something comes along like your video on your shaker jar that reminds me of it , it is almost like I am supposed to do it, but I don't hehe I probably sound like a person that is out there and that is ok.
the one major thing about west coast like Washington and British Columbia, Canada is that fall- winter it has rain a fair amount of rain (they call i t the Wet coast) which is why it is so green. but once a person accepts this they see the beauty in it, the sound and feeling of water falling from the sky that is clean and has song.
I hope you get to see the Harvest moon coming it in a couple of days.
I would love to just sit next to you drinking tea and observe. Your energy is awesome!
The shots u showed at the beginning was the closest to what my mind imagines heaven to look like !!! So beautiful!! X
Northern West Virginia is beautiful, if you want to check it out. Not too far from childhood home, but West Virginia is so different from Virginia. The hills and mountains are so gorgeous and different but I think it will still strike you as home with all the wildlife that is the same. Food is WAY cheap and if you choose to live in the rural areas outside the college towns you may be happy with the people. All the seasons are the same as virginia but the mountains tend to dull the weather. I just have to brag about my home state and hope you consider. Love you.
PLEASE check out the weeds and climate of areas of West Virginia. It is so different but so wonderful. Plus then I could meet up with you some day.
Yes! I absolutely love West Virginia. It is stunning. It’s not for those who want ultra modern fast paced life but that’s exactly why I love it here. Affordable and friendly neighbors. Plus the abundance of natural herbs. My yard is full of plantain, dandelion, red clover, and many more beneficial plants.
@@jensummer3549 I live in the southern parts of WV and yeah I forage most of my herbs myself. I hope she checks it out because at least where I am we don't get as severe of weather since the mountains keep us in. I can see how some people get claustrophobic here, with all the hills surrounding us, but personally I find them beautiful and comforting. Wonderful seeing so many west virginians in this chain.
@@xerrias I completely agree with you. I live down in a “holler”, as the locals call it, completely surrounded by trees. It is so comforting. I’m glad to hear from a fellow West Virginian.
gorgeous cinematography! I love videos like this, with beautiful music, nature, witchcraft all wrapped together.
I hope you find the right place for you soon.
I admire that you are taking time & consideration with this.
Whatever you do, have a magical Mabon! And full Harvest Moon! Blessed be!
I'm sorry that people you have encountered in Washington state are not nice. Born and bred here. 52 years only left for vacations. Many of people you have met probably are not from here? Maybe? I would love to meet you sometime. I'm south of Seattle by an hour to hour and half depending traffic and time of day. Love my state in spite of some of the people here. We have 4 seasons most of time. This summer been hot 🥵 without rain been terrible we usually have rain all year. Blessings Annie 💜🤟 ( ps I am Deaf) sending love and light
You might like to explore a mobile tiny house lifestyle. I love watching these tiny house channels. You can set up anywhere and the house is yours. You don't have to keep paying rent and they resell well.
The nice thing about Michigan is access to the Great Lakes is never far no matter where in the state you settle.
And yet, come winter, that's also one of the bad things. I'm from there and remember some of those killer lake effect snows. You take the bad with the good when you live there.
Have you ever been to New Hampshire? It’s the best of Virginia and wilderness. The people are friendly and I have made so many friends there. It’s beautiful and a very special place. The only thing that I don’t like is winters with too much snow. The lakes region is the most breathtaking place I have ever been - mountains surrounding beautiful lakes, lots of vegetation, and a connection to the landscape.
I grew up in Seattle and I can no longer live there, because of the cost. I hear you.
I love you took the spider outside. I had a mama mouse give birth in my house and I captured them all and released them. ❤️❤️
Hi! You should come explore Oregon! its super beautiful and we have all the seasons ! lots of nature !
I paused the video to go harvest plantain leaves. Thank you for the video, Annabel :)
Each state, place have their charms. Enjoy the journey. I’m Sure you will find a place that speaks to your soul, spirit, heart.
Thanks for sharing your adventure. I love hearing that someone else on the planet has not found their forever home location that's a perfect fit.
I love autumn.
Your Light is powerful ✨ 🙌
I live in Seattle too and the leaves are just starting to change, but I also just moved here from California which has even less of a seasonal change
This was such a sweet and wonderful video. It really has made me remember to feel that love for nature and that it is ok to want to make changes when you are ready. Thank you.
Annabel,you always put a smile on my face
So wonderful to be in touch with the Earth and your Spirituality
Amazing views thanks for sharing
As someone who was born and raised in the Rockies ive always wanted to visit the Appalachian and New England states. Something about that side of the state seems like it feels so old and peaceful. The Rockies themselves are young in terms of mountains and the area is also young in terms of buildings so maybe that's why, to me, even though I was raised here, it feels young and busy. Funny how people from opposite areas want to visit the other 😂 grass is always greener as they say
The northeast is beautiful in fall! Vermont, New Hampshire, the Adirondacks in NY are so beautiful and close to your home state. All the best finding your peaceful place!💕🍁🎃
Another wonderful video! No words, Annie truly, no words - except, thank you for this soul massage. Try not to seek out 'perfection.' I wonder if it exists. Ever. In any dimension. Wishing you unending love as you continue along your life's adventure.

Beautyful life and natur. Thank you very much.
You are a great artist of communications. Your videos may save a many young lives, whom are so troubled now a days. Young People will need your gentle sensibilities for their own survival. You will be their inner voice, all due to your own search in healing, you are healing your followers.
Oh, wow 😍. Those drone shots are beyond beautiful. Having lived in WA all my life, I myself would find it difficult to live in Seattle, so I commend you for exploring that option. In some ways, I think you really have to have a heart for the busyness of the city. Happy to hear you're not settling and still on a journey to find what makes your heart full. Wishing you the best!
I grew up in Virginia (beach) as well, moved to Portland, OR at 28 yrs old. I ADORE the PNW, but it is really heart warming & beautiful to hear you compare the two! Its like hearing from a dear, long-time friend. Your production skills are stunning, but your personality is brilliant, and shines through. ♡♡
Be well, Annabel!
Everyone seems to have a suggestion for where you might enjoy next, so I want to toss one out, too. Northeast Ohio (Cleveland/Akron/Canton) is a great blend of the magic of city life and the tranquility of rural life. We have gorgeous parks with unique topography, but just a short drive north and you hit one of the Great Lakes, which live up to the moniker. It’s a very underrated place to live. We’re like the meeting point of all worlds here. Plus, still only a day’s drive from family when you feel the mountains calling you back. Just a thought to ponder. 😊
Thank you for continuing to share your journey. You bring such a hopeful beauty to my life. You and your channels are a blessing. Safe travels. 🍂🍁🌻
Check out Maine. It is so gorgeous and no way near as costly as living on the West coast. Happy and safe travels to you and Hazel.
I’m presently packing & moving to the Maine cost soon. I agree it’s beautiful
@@be-twixt Same. Leaving CA for Maine in a year or less. Can't wait!
@@susanmarschner2237 so excited for you! I’m a New Englander & honestly love these parts. Get your sweaters ready girl & good luck on your move :)
I TOTALLY thought you were moving back to 'the Old Dominion'. LOL Glad you cleared that up. :) It's interesting to watch your journey of finding home.
