This is not a simple morning routine, it's a whole beautiful chapter of poetry 🥺🤍

[@alexandracamcorder]

truly a work of art.

[@ninanegedu]

She is art😍❤️

[@moyamawhinney]

awwwwww thank you so so much!!!! 🫶🏼

[@vanimmanuelp.tambanillo7855]

The words. The vibes. The feels. The aura. The energy. The honesty. So so so immaculate

[@moyamawhinney]

!!!! THANK U

[@lethalmatcha]

I remember in one of your vlogs you said something about wanting to improve your storytelling (CMIIW), and Moya, I can say you've reached it. Your videos feel like poetry, like both seeing quick, high-res image displays on a new TV in the store and nostalgia-ing polaroids from the past (balance of fast-pace & stillness) and like a podcast too. Your videos are now your weapon, and an art meant to be something undescribable. I don't know what else to say, but thank you for existing. For the passion and effort you've put in your videos.

[@moyamawhinney]

wow omg this this this is just the sweetest thing I've ever read. appreciate it so much thank you for being here and ahhh!! sending the most love xx

[@desivanwaterschoot8079]

Whooooo

[@evapearl2487]

it truly is paradise and your filming and editing make it look even more peaceful, beautiful and calming! also your voiceovers are my favorite part of your videos because your voice is so calming. love you xxx.

[@moyamawhinney]

!!! thank u my loveeee im so glad u enjoyed xx

[@hayley8087]

being alone and coming to terms with who you really are and how you’re really doing in life can be so challenging but i think ultimately so worth it. love to see you taking this journey for yourself, you inspire me to do the same. lots of love to you moya ❤

[@moyamawhinney]

🤧🤧🤧 ahhhhhh thank you!!!! sending love for your journey xx

[@aliciakars1423]

so beautiful and honest. thank you for this. as a girl that grew up in the netherlands with an indonesian mom, i'd always felt neither indonesian nor dutch enough. like you, i'm alone in bali right now to discover these two parts of myself. as someone that gets easily lonely, your previous vlog scared me a little, but this point of view brought so much comfort. so thank you for representing the in-between girls, because i feel like it is often an overlooked part of self discovery.

[@moyamawhinney]

!!!!!!!!!!!! yooooo thank you so much! sending love my sister I hope this time brings u a lot of clarity and joy - its not always easy doing things alone but when its good ahhh! xx

[@aliciakars1423]

@@moyamawhinney thank you!!

[@SamFournier]

Moya! This video was beautifully shot and such a beautiful message. Your creativity and fuel for life is inspiring🌱

[@moyamawhinney]

🫶🏼🫶🏼 omg thank u!!

[@earthblossom6225]

I'm sympathetic to people feeling weird about being alone because I enjoy it sm but it's cool to hear what other feel about it! Moya your living in a DREAM all the spaces you've inhabited have been made beautiful, absolutely love your entire being. this video is perfect as usual and just what i needed. LOVE U🌷🌷

[@moyamawhinney]

woooow thank you!!!! appreciate u being here always xx

[@arlyana9839]

never thought a morning routine video would hit me this hard :( ive been so lost in my feelings, and ive been feeling nothing but so lonely despite having company and i never thought being alone is the only thing i need to feel great again and you made me realize it :) thank you moya for bringing comfort to my day, an instant comfort i must say.

[@andreavillalobos585]

this girl, her content, the way she transmites a lot with her simply words and vibes, the edition and everything is completely MAGICAL ✨ you are a truly inspiration for me Moya. Thank you for being you always 🤍

[@DaestrumManitz]

It is in the moments of pause, stillness, silence that we find self-reflection and ultimately growth. With our crazy schedules and workloads, life doesn’t always afford the luxury of the solace of respite, but we must seek such moments. Your loggings in this video are quite beautifully peaceful.

[@moyamawhinney]

wow thank you!!

[@lucia1394]

I truly think this video itself is part of the definition of beauty. Your voice, the filming, the editing, the message, everything is just so beautiful and pleasant to watch. The love and inspiration you spread is indescribable. Keep going Moya

[@moyamawhinney]

🤧🤧🤧 omg thank you so much

[@user-fi5vv3bd9g]

I feel you as a half balinese girl who was born and raised in London. Not only is there a linguistic clash but a cultural one too whenever I go back however I've started to realise that a lot of my beliefs, passions and mindsets that I implement subconsciously align massively with Balinese cultural. Such a blessing for us to be from such a beautiful country, I fully get wanting to explore and immerse into that part of yourself. Hoping to move out there this year 🌴🐚

[@ilared]

Uuuh this video about stillness hits hard today. I had a surgery 5days ago and the idea of stying still for 12weeks to facilitate full recovery is really testing my nerves VS. The very active lifestyle I had until Monday. Your words came on the right day to me ❤

[@carinoscarina]

as someone who grew up being alone most of the time, it actually feels good to do things by urself ... alone but not lonely

[@raachelvu]

omg everything about this! I love this style of editing, the flow is so calming. wow! you've inspired me to incorporate this into my own video editing

[@littleoldvi]

Moya, you are the queen of morning routine videos! There is a graceful, exciting and calming quality to what and how you choose to capture in your routines and it brings so much joy to those who watch your videos! ☺️🫶🏼 it’s amazing seeing how much you’ve grown since Dublin diaries- rooting for you!!

[@moyamawhinney]

omg thank u for being here all this time!!!! 🤧🤧

[@ainifadila]

I love how this is relate to my life. I'm an introvert and currently seeing myself enjoy being alone and stillness, your words are just beautiful and really describes what I can't put into words. I live in Indonesia, Bali and Jogja are my fav to go places to travel alone and reflect which I plan to go too. Thank you for this video!! 🙏🏼

[@adimasaditya]

I'm 38 and currently having the same phase as you and I must say I really enjoyed being in this and enjoying myself more and more now

[@parikochar5069]

You have saved me from crippling depression and your voice is so soothing whenever I’m down I watch your videos and I get the hope to live again. I love you so much Moya thanks for saving me

[@fredriklarsson5790]

Your videos are so beautifully shot and has a really calming effect on people. Keep up the good work and stay safe ! 😊❤️

[@piamang1006]

your videos where you talk about being alone and also show your negative emotions, help me a lot right now. I’ve been traveling alone in Indonesia for almost 3 months (Sumatra and now for one month Bali) I’m staying in Bali until the end of November and at the moment I feel very lonely. On the one hand, I don’t want to go back home and get back to everyday life, but on the other hand, I miss my family more than ever. I’ve been thinking about it now for a longer time and I’ve come to the decision to enjoy the last 3 weeks I still have anyway and as much as possible because being able to travel alone and being independent having no one who tells me what to do or think is an opportunity to get to now myself better and I won’t have any more impressions of this kind anymore in the next time I guess. It’s an unique experience and I appreciate having this opportunity. and I know when I get back home I’m gonna get wanderlust again anyway So I just wanted to thank you for making me feel less alone with the feelings that someone can have while travelling solo and I can really really relate to the things you say. Your videos are art and you are very inspiring

[@otsilemoko]

Omg please link the place in this video. Your taste in accommodation is always so immaculate! Honestly love your video so so much 🌻

[@siobhanmcelwee6989]

One of the most beautifully edited videos that captures calmness, stillness, and stillness. Being alone is a fascinating subject and feeling to discover and learn to accept. But it feels amazing

[@priyankapandey7503]

I am from Asia and when I was traveling in Europe the first half of 2022 , I used to feel these same feelings and watching people on youtube like you do it effortlessly really made me question myself but now I see that you are feeling somewhat similar it all makes sense.

[@moyamawhinney]

[@gabrielaalmeida6127]

[@red3pants]

Moya I’m so proud of you for taking this step to embrace stillness - I know it is not an easy feat! I would love to hear more about what you’re uncovering during this process and how you’d like to integrate moving forward. I think we can all see a reflection of ourselves in other’s journeys, so it’s such a privilege to experience a part of yours. This was beautifully shot and edited - thank you for sharing.

This is what i've been waiting for, Moya capturing Indonesia with her own delicate style and approach, a simple as kopi bubuk i drink everyday can turn into something remarkably poetic

[@moyamawhinney]

😭😭😭😭😭 thank you!!

[@lucieastini3617]

I'm half Balinese and half European/Australian and no one has ever described the feeling of belonging, privilege and the confusion of self identity as well as you have Moya. I have gone through similar things being a fellow mixed Indonesian and it's nice to not feel so alone in it
