A Day in My Minimalist Life Traveling Full Time

[@ConnieRiet]

Thanks for coming along with me as I give a peek into my daily life.

[@inezmorgan317]

I love how you’re never selling anything, just sharing your experiences.

[@juliequick5526]

Fantastic to see how things are going with you! I’m in awe of what you’ve done and how fulfilled you seem. Namaste 🙏🏻

[@jana7470]

I love your videos, Connie. They are very soothing. What a rich life you live. 🤗🙏💓

[@claudiabecker4673]

It's so wonderful to see how you can be happy without a house of your own, many clothes and all the stuff we usually fill our lives with. It is inspiring indeed! Thanks for sharing!

[@silvia26.04]

What a beautiful life....❤

[@robertashaffer3950]

Wow Connie! Such a beautiful video 🌟 A wonderful life indeed. 🙏 I am trying to create my future of joy, health, love & prosperity, however I am finding this extremely challenging. More elbow grease is definitely needed 🙏 Thank you for showing us that we can do it as well. Enjoy your magnificent day! 🌞❤️🌞

[@sarahchang2835]

Thank you for this beautiful look at your lovely life. My husband and I are in our sixties and just starting our retirement life. We are leaving the United States to explore the world as you are doing. It really helped me when you described keeping a routine while you travel, I am experiencing a little anxiety about it, and I think that making sure we keep up our exercise everyday, and the other little things we like to do on a daily basis like writing, reading, preparing delicious food and so on will ground and calm me. Would you mind sharing where you are staying in Costa Rica it looks so beautiful, I understand if you would rather not. I look forward to following along with you on your journey.

[@jennyfulcher8035]

Such a lovely place to be present and alive surrounded by such beautiful scenery. Your daily yoga is not only good for maintaining your strength and resilience, but also great for balance. As you age, your balance is crucial in preventing falls.Your coconut water with fresh fruit, scrambled eggs with avocado and spinach, and meditations by the beach with the surf sounds wonderful! Enjoy. 💜

[@diannajohnston4558]

Costa Rica is heaven on earth!!!!! Can’t wait to go back!

[@revighetto]

Hi Connie! Yes, dealing with 2 cancers along my life I totally agree with you, taking care of myself must be my highest priority. I'll be a better person for others and I'll be free. Free from illness, in mind and connect with God. I loved your video, it inspired me.

[@RożaWaśniewska]

Connie , you Have a beautiful life! All the best for you and your Family ! Greetings from Poland!

[@mariestein4026]

So beautiful - thank you, Connie and Greetings for You from Northern Finland, where the snowy winter in finally over and the beautiful spring has come!

[@shaynaangers5691]

Your videos are so beautifull and i love to hear you take this job as serious as your life ❤❤❤id like to say thank you because watching your video brought me joy

[@lucimich0224]

You are simply lovely. You remind me to sit back and notice. I live in Florida. My happy place is Sebastian Inlets shoal. Swimming in that incoming emerald green ocean water, breathing in that fresh sea air. Thank you for taking the time to show us your lifestyle.

[@jeaninevandalen6969]

9:12 hi Connie, I recently discovered your channel and it is just what I needed. So, thank you so much for everything you share. Xxx Jeanine a Dutch woman living by myself in Spain

[@arlenecoury9976]

HI Connie! this video was just what I needed. My life is so STRESSFUL right now. I've been dealing with my sister and trying to close on our mother's home, that we co own. Closing our mother to Cancer was traumatic enough, but now we have been at odds and it has totally DRAINED me. We are only yards from the finishing line and truthfully, these last few yards seem like hte toughest! But watching your video, and by the way I often wonder "Where is Connie today?" has calmed my spirit. Reminded me to take control of my emotions and not let others dictate my sense of well being. Thank you.

[@MikefromCanada5426]

Hello Connie: Thoroughly enjoying the videos. You are right in saying that your health must be given full priority. I too have been intermittent fasting for about 7 years. (OMAD). That along with a consistent workout program and grounding has made a significant difference in my overall health. (I'm 67 years old). I've learned much from you about prioritizing my spiritual well-being and while still a work in progress, has resulted in reduced stress levels and the ability to appreciate and enjoy the simpler things in life. That along with seeiing the good that's around me and being grateful definitely leads to a more satisfying way of living. Have a great stay in Costa Rica. All the best. Mike from Canada

[@danielarenner4102]

Love your morning routine, so centering and calming. Would you mind sharing your journal. Is it a soft cover? I’m in need of a new journal and looking for something soft instead of hard cover.

[@tigerlily62]

I’m sitting here, watching your video, and contemplating all the things in my house that I no longer need…a project in the making!..😊

[@imanbekiri3020]

I've lived abroad for the past 11 years and I am now learning to care for myself after caring for everyone else. Thank you for sharing these thoughts and aspirations to move forward in caring for me 🌹🌎❤️

[@veenasharma5447]

Thank you Connie for your videos and inspiration🙏 This is the first time I’ve felt compelled to write a comment on KZbin, to let you know how much I look forward to watching your progress in a truly inspirational life full of peace, love, self care, family and travel. I’m aspiring to have the life you have so each week of your videos inspire me to get closer to that goal. Finally I want to extend an invitation to you and your husband to come to Cambridge in England when you are visiting your daughter in Germany and you would be delighted to host you and show you around our beautiful city. Take care Connie and keep up the great work and videos with your unique positive energy and generosity in making them for people like me. Sending you lots of love and gratitude. Veena 🙏😘🥰

[@kennethbailey9853]

Im grateful that You continue to share peace and appreciation for joy in nature and in what truly matters in life.

[@liliethshaw6782]

So beautiful where you are and peaceful enjoy your video so much ❤️ so calm enlightening God bless you

[@suebrown436]

So pleased I found your channel, Connie, through my KZbin recommendations. I am from the UK and I'm getting lots of inspiration from watching and listening to you. I am a young 72, but alas I didn't keep myself more supple in my younger days and my body is no longer as flexible as it used to be. Should have had a Connie in my life years ago!

[@claudiascott6654]

Connie, I love your website, but do wonder how long one can be a vagabond before you need a 'patch of grass' of your own? You can be a minimalist and still have roots somewhere. I travel often, but it always feels great to come home to my own place and not be bunking at someone else's home. I hope you enjoy this chapter and look forward to your adventures.

[@helenbonanno4804]

I am not a minimalist, nor do I strive to be, but I do enjoy your channel and it really makes me think. I live in a little log cabin and my mantra is "plain and simple." So,,,,,I have developed a "I no longer will buy or do" list. On my list are magazines, make-up, clothes, purses, candles, boston ferns (for the summertime on my porch) and so on and so forth.

[@tinalemna7998]

I had a busy morning and couldn’t wait to get home so I could watch your video. Another beautiful video. 🙌🏻

[@tulaysay4304]

it must be enchanting to be minimalist for a prosperous woman.

[@louisebrehmer3028]

Ah Connie. Your videos bring so much peace and calm to my day. Always grateful for your content and reminders to slow down. Love from Australia xx

[@txspacemom765]

Love the black sand on your feet.

[@marylouschubert2974]

You’re in a beautiful place now….enjoy. Look forward to wandering with you 🥰

[@gailtester8749]

I'm in awe of your life too! I love this format of showing us your travel! Having a gorgeous life myself in Utah, gardening in perfect weather today.

[@undertaken101]

So beautiful! It is a joy to watch how your life unfolds, with so much appreciation and sensitivity😍

[@pramod6898]

Connie you look gorgeous as always. Love.

[@heidixxx2454]

Hello Connie, from the Northern Oregon Coast of USA! Is it always sunny and warm in Costa Rica? And is making your you tube channel and your primary digital employment? Cash flow is always an issue for those of us who travel when not yet retired. Congrats on you & husband making the leap to (almost) no possessions! You've done it now instead of later, saving your adult children much work!🙂 This is a gift to them as well as yourselves.

[@m.h.t1286]

Such a simple & peaceful life 🌻 Just a side note: if you like drinking coconut water (from a coconut), opt for young coconuts. The one you used in your video is old coconut, which isn’t good for drinking (its meat is more useful than its juice). Have a nice day 😊

[@tinalemna7998]

I’m curious how do you know if a coconut is young or old? 💚

[@muhlenstedt]

@@tinalemna7998 The young are green and do not have the "hairs" ( sorry , I am not able to find the right word, poor explanation)

[@gabygonzalez7245]

Many blessings Connie🙏✨🙏 thank you for sharing your beautiful life moments 🙏

[@helenreid7022]

You are very brave!

[@maggiefoers2038]

You are such an inspiration. Thank you, thank you 🙏

[@louisetilbury3443]

Ahh Connie I’ve been waiting for this. What a lovely experience you are having. Just shows how small routines can make a big difference and doesn’t matter where you are or what you do. Beautiful scenery. I always feel zen after your videos. Have a great day. ❤

[@ConnieRiet]

I'm a big believer that small routines make the biggest impacts.

[@henny16-bg3jc]

Amazing

[@conniestone8367]

From one Connie to another Connie…I truly appreciate your sharing your journey. I’m in the process of rehoming at least 90% of my possessions for the next season of my journey…and your calming, reassuring videos keep me encouraged during the process of downsizing. Thank you so much for allowing us to peek into your journey.

[@mariit522]

Thank you Connie for sharing this beautiful time❤😊

Well done, Thank You.

@connieriet, I really enjoy your videos and i have a question. Did you bring your tripod to the market or did someone else film you there? Thanks again for sharing your new world

Beautiful person and beautiful life ❤

[@traveler65]

CR...not a place for everyone. Many mosquitoes and bugs, many varieties of spiders. And extremely hot and humid. The sun is extremely intense because you are very close to the equator. We have spent a total of 1 1/2 years there in various locations. Even through all that we still really like Costa Rica. I think for some it gets in your blood. Pura Vida 🇨🇷

[@andeebee2530]

Thank you Connie for taking me to places I’m unable to get to. The beach looks so beautiful. Your videos are wonderful. You are also so lucky to have a loving husband to share it all with.

[@lorenamartin222]

Lovely life. Lovely you❤

[@marysusa6985]

Wondering what you do about health insurance as a world traveler? Is this something you have or think about? I think that would be my challenge financially if i wanted to be nomadic for any amount of time.

[@marcythemermaid]

love your videos. what about a hat with that morning hot beach walk?

[@missmayflower]

That’s a big challenge, keeping a routine while travelling.

[@suer292]

Beautiful 🌿

[@irinacerneckaite2654]

Inspiring life, great morning routine. Enjoy your meetings with beloved ones. But Iwonder what was for a dinner? :) And it would be lovely to hear the true sound of the ocean while watching you meditate. I felt I wanted to breave in and out together. :)

[@ConnieRiet]

Great editing tip! Thank you. We usually cook at home, mostly vegetarian options.

[@glynnismonaghan9032]

Thank you for a lovely relaxing and inspiring podcast. What timescale do you follow for intermittent fasting?.

[@lifeabundant1269]

Thank you for sharing. I agree that we need to be intentional about our health as we age. Do you follow a yoga routine that's online or do you have your own routine? Any recommendations on where to start with yoga at home for a beginner?

[@joyouscharity]

Beautiful ❤️

[@sherriepiechowski4556]

I too am a journalist and have years and years of them accumulated- now that you are living out of a suitcase, what do you do with them when you finish one? I am trying to become more minimalist but struggling in certain areas.

[@SomebodysNan]

Hi Connie, thanks for taking us to costa rica...what a marvellous adventure you are having.....just one question, are yourself & your husband ever concerned for your safety in new places?..seems a strange thing to ask but just wondered??????..blessings, from Margaret in South Australia!

[@ConnieRiet]

Great question! No, my husband and I feel safe wherever we travel. I find that each country and city has some areas that are a bit rougher and we avoid these areas. But, on the whole I, everywhere we travel people are kind and want the same things as anyone from any place, to be happy and live a peaceful life.

[@chinchorrero]

Nice video ❤

[@dawndemet3331]

It’s a beautiful life. It’s not for me, but I love it. I live tiny, but I surely need my little things. Healthwise, I’m a mess to.

[@janefromthecountry1820]

Did you buy a size large in the peasant skirt? I enjoyed this video. Peaceful. Relaxing.

[@ConnieRiet]

I'm a size small and the skirt is medium.

[@karenefthemes9817]

Which color skirt are you wearing In the video?

[@Sandrafaimilly]

What type of cameras and tripods do you use. As a minimalist, did you only have one?

[@eprohoda]

Bravo- good shots, goodbye~✨

[@denisekarding1844]

Seems like a dream life however i have questions. If by chance you fall sick and need medical care do you just find a doctor or dentist and how do you know if they are okay? That would make me awfully nervous.

[@АдаБлащук]

Как я хочу приблизится к такой жизни ❤

[@lindag5076]

Great Video Connie. What hours are your eatting window? I have tried twice this week but failed to IF. You’ve now inspired me be a healthier person. Thank You for sharing with us your beautiful scenery.

[@ConnieRiet]

That's wonderful! I fast for 16 hrs and eat in an 8 hr window. When I started intermittent fasting I eased my way into accepting the new schedule. I would prolong eating by one hour and keep this for one week - 10 days. When my body would acclimate I would prolong eating by one hour for a week, and so on. It took a little longer but this way I never felt starved.

[@lindag5076]

@@ConnieRiet Thank You and Thanks for taking us on you beautiful journey ( for those of us afraid to try new things !) we live on a beautiful farm we bought 19 years ago and built my dream log home , we do travel or did, last year my sister was diagnosed with AML and I spent the last year taking her for Doctor appointments, chemo and blood transfusions and just helping her through her horrible journey as she lived alone. She passed last month my daughter and I at her side, now my 14 year old pup can hardly walk so I’m caring for him , one day soon hubby and I can head back to Mexico to Cabo and Cancun and soak up the sun as we do enjoy going there.

[@patoNJ100]

Are you planing to learn Spanish? That way you may be able to really enjoy and connect with Costa Rica. Also, beware of humidity and your journal, sometimes in CR you need to save paper on a “dry box”. Thank you for your beautiful videos!

[@ConnieRiet]

Wonderful tips! Thanks

[@karlabritfeld7104]

What are you going to do if you get sick and need intensive care and hospitalization?

[@ConnieRiet]

I would seek a doctor at the local Urgent Care or go to the hospital. Last week my husband got a puncture on his foot from a rusty nail. Fearing he might get an infection he went to Urgent Care where they cleaned his wound, and gave him a tetanus shot. He is healing up nicely.
