You are so very delightful. I think I smiled throughout your whole video. You are wonderfully positive and deliciously happy. This was my first time watching any of your videos. You popped up on my feed, and the title caught my eye. I am so delighted. And, I understand about getting lost in a mall. I live in Oahu, and, there is a very large mall called the Ala Moana Center. It is an outdoors shopping mall that is so large that the first time I went there, walking, mind you, that I got so turned around I thought I would never find the way out. I thought that I would have to live there, as, they have exits from the three levels all going to different streets of the city. But, I was not too worried, as, they have a giant bookstore, which, after wondering in circles, I finally found, and figured if I could not find my way out, I would just live in the bookstore. 😂 Anyway, I loved your pep, your excitement, your joy, and you will be watched from now on. I am looking forward to your next video.

It is amazing I can live through each day. I told my son if I am not home when he gets home from school, then, he should send out the troops, as, most likely I got lost trying to go to the library! And, yes, it is Paradise here, as I am sure Melbourne is for you. I am very lucky to get to experience a place like this. I am embracing each day I am here. Well, it has been a true pleasure talking with you. I did not think I would get a reply. Haha. You are most kind. I thank you for your response. And now, I will let you go, as, I have gone on and on.

I've been in a bit of a reading slump lately so hoping to find some cozy and uplifting books to read for the fall season. I think one of my most memorable moments back in my university days was spending time in the library, even if it was studying, because there is just something so comforting and special about it (all libraries in general). As a child up till now as an adult always love to visit my local library. Looking forward to watching your other videos and your next one 🙂👍.
