A Tale Between Trains (Spain to Portugal) ⁄⁄ CatCreature

[@soxale]

i'm currently watching this in bed, wrapped up in blankets, with a face mask on. this is my friday night routine, something to unwind and treat myself after a long week. your trip made me realize how precious time is with our family and how we should do things like this with them. this has motivated me to work hard in school so i can treat my mom to a trip like this! i want to give back to her and experience moments like these with her! thank you for this beautiful memory, annabelle. we appreciate it so much and i hope all is well 💛

[@justmeIandmyself1]

Love this! I'm feeling the same way about mom because of this video

[@sunnyday1223]

I know I’m not the only person but i wanna see all the cat pictures ur mom took throughout the whole journey

[@sopa8824]

this was just what I needed after a day of stressful college stuff I'm sobbing metaphorically

[@Flowingwaters0x0]

Same xc

[@lilyturner5840]

Sofia Funk i feel you, boo. *hugs* hang in there ❤️

[@radishmoss]

i’m not sure why, maybe it’s the fact that i’m filled with a strange sense of nostalgia watching this, but this is one of my favourite vlogs you’ve ever done. spain is one of my favourite places and i love to see your wonderful relationship with your mum that’s similar to mine. thank you for always creating beautiful content no matter what and i can’t wait for your future creations. lots of love.

[@jvstinxavier]

yessss, next is catcreature: the movie! lol, in all seriousness, thanks for thinking of us while on vacation. for me, it takes a lot of will to do work, especially on my free time, so your dedication definitely doesn't go unnoticed. have a great day/night annabelle :)

[@Margaret_Hemenway]

omg your mom is beautiful! shes so lovely!!

[@Sheccid_Matos]

i couldn't even finish the video lol i had to comment . This has been one of the best footage you have ever done in my opinion. Especially the aquarium footage with the music in the background it made me emotional, it was amazing. Once again, your mummy is so cute. I love how you accommodate to the language of the country you travel too, it's cool. This vlog is dear to me because it has little things that remind me of my home, Dominican Republic. For example, when you visited the mall, Carefour. It remind me of my childhood because there is one around were i used to live in DR and i would always go shopping there with my mom and i have the best ice cream in the world. Again, thank you for sharing your memories with us , i one day want to travel with my mom too and Spain is on the list. Now back to the video!

[@99luna66]

thank you so much for ur hard work, annabelle! really appreciate the time n effort u put into ur content despite having hectic schedules. i admire the closeness u and ur mom have and also ur positive attitude towards the struggles u encountered during the trip, if that was me i couldve lost it LOL anyway i am SO excited for the school vlogssss !! ! goodluck with ur studies and have a wonderful day! 🌻💛

[@emilyemiranda]

30 minutes, what a BLESSING! thank you so much for all the hard work you put into these vlogs and videos, they are such a treat. i am doing pretty okay! i got rejected on sunday but we remain friends, i went to disneyland on monday (perfect timing lol) and have spent the rest of the week at work and in bed, relaxing. post grad is such a weird place in life to be and i don't quite like it much yet, but i'm hoping to find more things to fill my time and to find contentment with this part of life. that's the hard part.

[@emilyemiranda]

also, i LOVE how much you love sweets. like seriously it warms my heart bc i know we would make such good friends. i would eat ice cream every meal if i could, and i love seeing all the sweets you get to enjoy on these trips. i just started invisalign last week and the hardest part so far has been having to avoid snacking on ice cream and candies in between meals or before bed :,( it's going to be a long 10 months!!

[@halimahhamid7175]

heart warming - wholesome - pure - just beautiful - thank you Annabelle.

[@CAMZART]

I am very happy that those videos allow you to live fairly well while studying. I hope your school year hasn't started too roughly, and that you're managing to find your balance again. Personally, having been struggling with very very strong anxiety issues for a while, I will be going for a small stay in an hospital soon, to help me try and untangle my brain. I hope to come out of there able to try and live again. Thank you for always giving me hope when it gets a little dark. As always, I love you, sincerely.

[@elpocakoca120]

Good luck, Camille ♡

[@CAMZART]

Chaïmae C thank you! ❤️

[@dayrodriguez9619]

"there is so much going on in life, we must first take care of ourselves in order to not lose ourselves in it" is my favorite line from the description for this video. thank you for sharing your life with us and for those powerful words.

[@fuwafuwa9470]

about a year ago you posted a what's in my backpack for college video with your sister - that was when I decided that I would finally jump over my shadow and apply for art school! this year in may my portfolio was accepted and I am finally starting school on the 24th of september, so in 9 days!! thank you for indirectly giving me strength and inspiration, annabelle; I'm forever grateful to you

[@Hulie]

as always this is BEAUTIFUL wow

[@Piquetures]

Omg, the faces your mom was making around ~19:00 when you said "because she's 'older'" 😂

[@trishuang8377]

Im just watching this vlog episode now... i have to say all of Annabelle's vlogs are so lovely to watch! Not only do they make me feel happy, the energy that her vlogs give out is just "infectious" in a motivating & uplifting way! Lift my spirits each time 🥰 And seeing how closely knitted her family is, her mum so positive, cheery & willing to go on new adventures warm my heart.

[@marniewillow]

I LOVE YOU SO MUCH HAVE A WONDERFUL DAY

[@annabellegao]

jubilant taeyong you too!!! Love you!!!

[@almostvintaaage]

I, like everyone else who is subscribed to you, genuinely enjoy all the content you put out. I am so thankful that I stumbled upon your channel. Your videos make me feel calm and your words always remind me to keep pushing forward, so thank you. I finished my assigned book today and took the opportunity to watch this video for my break. I have been so focused on my school work that I forget to watch the content those who I'm subscribed to put out. Although school work has become very overwhelming, I am proud of myself for being setting aside more time for all the work I get. I've always been one to do everything last minute and I have definitely made progress to leave that bad habit behind. Once again, thank you for simply being you.

[@annabellegao]

Thank you so much for being here and telling me all about how things have been. It brought me a big smile to read that you were proud of all of your hard work, it's so empowering. Thank u for making time to be here when you could've spent it anywhere else. So thankful for this community and it's members, like you. I need that push oftentimes too when things get so overwhelming, and it is really uplifting to come back to this place and share our thoughts and feelings. Take care, I am sending u love 💛

[@Sheccid_Matos]

Just finished and read the description. I am doing good, but like you, i want to get the "stress" work done and i haven't really been taking care of myself and you saying it was like a reminder to do so. Thank you, i hope that you get on pace again and don't forget to take care of yourself too. Take it day by day like you said.

[@deenab92]

I see how kind and positive your mom is! Such a beautiful woman!

[@emiliiajayne]

The relationship between you and your mum is honestly so lovely

[@Mej111]

Wowwwww those aquarium shots are awesome!!

[@pacificae425]

Favourite part of the video was the aquarium bit, so calming.

[@krupab8619]

Always love watching your vlogs, they are so soothing. So glad you enjoyed your trip with your mom and got to travel and have your own journey with someone you love and cherish, as I have gotten older I cherish every little moment I can get with my parents whether it's traveling or at home. The small memories we get make such a big and comforting impact in our lives as we grow. Continue your vlogs all your subscribers I know love it! :)

[@chloe.imogen]

I love the close relationship between you and your mum, it reminds me of the realtionship I have with my mum and every time I see a video of you guys together it reminds me how grateful I am for her ❤

[@alexandramasarikova79]

Today I have witnessed some unpleasant situations which made me feel really down and think about people and humanity... it was a person close to me beating his dog and I had to stand up for the one’s who can’t themselfes. In these situations I try to stay as calm as possible and handle everything with kindness. You will be my biggest rolemodel forever. The way you act and handle situations it’s in a way angelic. You will be my rolemodel forever, stay the way you are. Big thank you for making difference.

[@jstine4061]

Wow thank you so much for sharing such a beautiful memory. It's so nice that you travelled with your mom! I am currently in art school, and I miss my mom dearly! But watching you and your mom, simply being together, enjoying each other's presence reminds me of my own relationship with my mom, and I feel even more appreciative of her. Thank you, always, for being who you are, showing us what it is to live at your own pace, by your own story, while still caring for others. Hope you have a wonderful weekend!!

[@julyudron]

“grateful for this life with you, mom" aww I miss my mom

[@emelieeriksson4726]

the ending brought tears to my eyes. Thank you Annabellle, for sharing this trip with us!

[@paulinevelasco2652]

I'm going through a lot right now and your videos are one of the few things that bring me happiness. Thank you thank you thank you

[@katheryntremblay8206]

your mom is so adorable, such sweet memories to cherish. Thanks for sharing, xx

[@Emma-fe9ki]

The last few vlogs of you travelling to Scotland and your Europe vacation with your mum have been so amazing!! watching your vlogs makes me feel like I was apart of your journey in a way and I just want to thank you so much for these videos that have such an uplifting and heartwarming quality to them. I love how much effort you put into this!! the ending of this vlog just about made me cry. and your holiday with your mum seems like it was a such a good time, your relationship with your mum reminds me of how close I am to my mum. thank you so much Annabelle

[@annabellegao]

Thank u Emma :-) it means a lot to be able to share these special memories with you. So grateful that you are able to take a piece of positivity and enjoyment from content I make. I hope you are doing well too! I am already a little tired only in the second week of school...but I have a good grasp on all that I ought to do! Take care of yourself and talk soon ❤️ x.

[@nancyd5038]

I always appreciate your well written, thoughtful descriptions, Annabelle! I start college in a week and your school vlogs make me feel motivated to be productive.

[@annabellegao]

Nancy D thank you! Wishing you the best in the coming weeks. Take care of yourself 💛

[@hongngocnguyen8963]

I have enjoyed this video a lot💖 Thank you for your time and effort that you have put in this video. Watching your vlog is like a dose of happiness and positivity for my day❤️

[@Nora796]

So beautiful. this made me teary eyed because I don’t know if I’ll ever get to spend time like this with my mom but I appreciate you sharing the adventure with us.

[@ohitssummercherry]

the relationship you have with your mum is just beautiful

[@noovernightguests]

Such a lovely video and a great trip! Thank you for the tour around Europe. Your mom is so funny and sweet.

[@yumna611]

i started watching this and got to about 1 min 20 but i’ve decided that this deserves my full and undivided attention, SO as much as i want to watch it now, i’ll save it for the morning (it’s 1am here oops!). it’ll be something nice to look forward to! it’s slowly starting to sink in that i’m starting uni in about a week or so. i felt myself panicking a little bit today because that realisation had set in and it suddenly occurred how much i still have left to do to prepare and how little time there seemed to be to do it in. but you’ve taught me that everyday is a new day and it’s just about balance and tackling tasks in little bits at a time. for the most part, you seem pretty collected which may be to do with you trying to have such a positive outlook on each and every individual day. i’m going to go forward trying to do the very same :-) i hope you, your family, tyler and praire are all well and best of luck with school! i can’t wait to watch this wonderfully long vlog in the morning at breakfast! goodnight for now 🌙✨🌷

[@emilyemiranda]

you're going to do wonderful at uni! it's easy to say, "don't stress!" and harder to follow, but you WILL find that balance and you're going to have a wonderful time :-)

[@yumna611]

Emily Miranda thank you so much! somewhere in the back of my mind, i know this too. it’s just a little hard to believe. but i’m still super excited to start uni for a course that i actually really like ☺️

[@monikaanic4177]

I'm literally in the same situation. With saving the video for later and enjoying it fully later. Also, with the uni, kinda getting nervous with prepairing and packing for everything. Because of you, Anabelle, I see the positive in the small stuff.

[@pennyvaiou1819]

Your videos are always super calming and beautifully taken I'm so glad I found your channel

[@isabellekeenum5069]

your videos always make me feel warm. thank you for sharing your light. sending you love & happy prayers from my home to yours!

[@mavi3518]

i love your videos. This video reminded me to appreciate my mom more. life is short , and moments with your familiy is priceless. thank you for being a inspire person with such amazing videos

[@MsGlowfly]

I love how you film every cat you come across 😊 Your vlogs are my favourite to watch 💕

[@sophiawei2861]

This is a piece of art. Thank you for sharing ❤️

[@daisytlx]

I've been a silent viewer for a long while watching all your vlogs and videos, but I couldn't help it and just wanted to let you know how I loved this looooong vlog (and the entire travel vlog series!) where I got to see more of the relationship you have with your mum. Thank you so much for sharing with us such beautiful moments, even the simple little things that you experience in your travels, it really felt like I travelled there and back in these 30 minutes! I caught myself smiling at your conversations with your mum and her cute selfie moments, all the beautiful shots of food and scenery, the feels is real!! "there is so much going on in life, we must first take care of ourselves in order to not lose ourselves in it." Thank you for reminding me to love myself no matter what and reigniting this spark to life ♡

[@annabellegao]

thank you daisy, for your lovely message. it means so much that you've stuck with me, even if you don't usually comment! i am glad i can bring you a piece of enjoyment and positivity through sharing my content, and i hope to continue doing so. feeling so blessed to be in a community with people like you. sending you love, take care of yourself and i hope to hear from you soon :-)

[@frankie6883]

im a filmmaking student and am currently experiencing one of the most demoralising shoots of my life. to come home after wrap and unwind to this and all your other videos keeps me sane. thank you for all your hard work and consoling content, anabelle.

[@jcsviny]

I hope you enjoyed your time in Portugal even though you had some unforeseen events. It feels great seeing you wander around and visiting my country!!

[@lauraboyd3395]

Your mum is so precious and adorable I love her!!!

[@mzxjulay]

You and your mom have such a good taste in fashion. Love all of your vlogs ❤️

[@insyirah7675]

30 minutes of catcreature???? i must be in a dream. oh, annabelle. you never fail to capture the most beautiful moments. you have been a big inspiration for me to vlog my own life too. the last few seconds of the vlog devoting to your mom got me a lil teary eyed but im fine! thank you for sharing these precious moments with us

[@malindalana]

The relationship that you have with your mum is something incredible! It's so inspiring and wonderful that you get to experience wonderful moments like these with someone so close to you!

[@leni9199]

It’s been such a pleasure to watch the vlogs of your travels with your mom. I used to travel places we could drive, my dad, mom, dog and I. This year was the first year my parents and I couldn’t go anywhere because I had a huge move and also I had to keep working through it. My dog sadly is no longer with us since last year. I am doing on the verge of okay, but I am still fighting to get my job recognized to the country I moved and it turned out a lot more troublesome and expensive than I anticipated so it has thrown me off quite a bit. The job I found, since I started so many people have gotten sick we are barely any left so it is stressful. It’s been hard to escape that general feeling of stress about the cost of living and moving, but also the cost of moving somewhere where you know no one. I was able to drive back home recently and see all my old friends which gave me a lot of energy. This vlog, too, gave me some inspiration to keep on going and not keep my head hanging too low, even if it’s not an easy time. Somehow we always imagine things to go smoother and easier than they do and I think it’s crucial to well-being that we learn to accept those bumps in the road. It is the journey, after all, that shapes you into who you are and teaches you lessons. I’ll try to cherish that, to be able to seek out and learn and relax. Even if it’s not easy at all. All my best wishes to you ♡

[@mmiinazukii]

this is so beautiful and it makes me want to travel again! I absolutely loved every single second of this video omg. you are so kind and wise and you make me appreciate the little things more and be grateful for what i have! thank you annabelle for letting us enjoy this beautiful trip with you :)

[@TiffanyVsLife]

just want to leave a comment saying how much i appreciate your video descriptions with a sweet lengthy message and links to things in the videos...if only every youtuber could do that!

[@sianevelyn2705]

Your videos are so relaxing and make me feel so calm and at ease! Your fashion sense goes without saying, but your mums is also 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@MFSG67]

My heart is so full of love from watching how you love and enjoy your time with your Mum. I love my Mum so much and we would be like this, but sad to say that she is in a home now and it would be very difficult to go anywhere far. Hindsight is a useless thing, but if I knew what I know now, I would have spent more time vacationing with my Mum. I totally missed the point when I was younger. You are doing the right thing Annabelle! Your Mum and you enjoyed your holidays together. Your experiences with her are so precious xx

[@DailyDoseOfBrenda]

You and your mom are so cute and have the best vacation outfits! Loving your vlogs as always Annabelle ❤️

[@jupitired777]

Your mom is literally the most adorable person ever

[@tigerrocha9161]

your mom has a beautiful smile and energy !

[@alfredofalen367]

I love your channel so much, brightens up my crappy and boring day.

[@armaisha]

the part where you said where your mom wanted to be more comfortable was so relatable! my family took a trip to japan last summer and we went around by walking and taking public transport and stayed in bnbs. towards the end my mom said she was v tired and it made me realize of the fact that she was getting older 😂though we still try to save money on our trips, now i'm just more conscious of when we're going to places that require a lot of walking to make sure she's comfortable. great vlog annabelle! 🌸

[@Washixoxo]

Your beautiful videos destress me and make me feel so calm. Thank you

[@annabellegao]

Washixoxo thank you for being here!

[@jaleneb.1159]

BEAUTIFUL as always. 💖😌☀

[@marianacarvalho8884]

Hello Annabelle, I am simultaneously dreading and looking forward to next week as I'm moving into my first house for my second year of University! I definitely feel very overwhelmed and anxious but I've been trying to adopt your incredible frame of mind - this is is a big step in my life, a grand achievment, and instead of being terrified of this new chapter in my life, I must look at the positives and embrace the adulthood I'm plunging straight into. I'm excited to reunite with all of my friends and study literature which makes my heart so happy. Thank you, for all of your hard work, your patience, kindness & support. Hope you are doing well, can't wait for more amazing content 🌹💓

[@RitaXDias]

Hello from Portugal!!! Hope you enjoyed your stay in my beautiful country!! If you ever come back here, you should definitely check out Porto! ;) Another lovely video, as usual. P.S. How did you like our "pasteis de nata"?

[@krishamaedevera2312]

[@charlotte.robertson]

so many friendly faces along the way! this was such a lovely wind down vlog

[@tamia4907]

annabelle! can i just say that I always love and appreciate the descriptions you put and thank you so much for that. I'm actually very! proud of myself! after an early class (i rarely wake up early on weekdays) and a three hour lecture, then coming home to do laundry, having a slightly very embarrassing moment including my fear of dogs-- i saw this video. and I said hey I'm really tired but I'm going to cook myself some pasta ( i just started learning how to cook so this makes me feel even more happy with myself

[@tamia4907]

this makes barely any sense but it's because my bones are jelly I'm too relaxed right now haha my brain is also a lil too relaxed I guess 😂

[@angeljanederla6226]

i never knew such magic would exist in just one video. your videos are just a breath of fresh air ❤️🍃

[@kiera6500]

It looks like you and your mom have such a lovely relationship! It must be nice to get time to travel with her. I know I like spending time away with my mom.

[@Delphnic]

This was so beautiful. Such a delight to wind down and watch this. So excited for the school vlogs though! I find them very motivational❤️

[@tanyapalmyre5731]
