Cozy Autumn Q&A| Finding Inspiration, Fear of Missing Out, Staying Calm, Life in English Countryside

[@IamDaria]

Hi friends, oh this is a long one! I hope you enjoyed this Q&A. I tried to get to all questions, but some require a longer answer, so I'll make a separate video! I wanted to quickly address something I said about being an Introvert & managing friendships: - here I am talking specifically about people that are outside of your circle and about making new friends/ becoming close friends with someone. I am not talking about your loved ones and family. I think here the boundaries are very different and both sides need to meet half way, no matter whether you’re an introvert or not. Both need to find mutual respect.

[@escapetorural]

Thanks for clarifying! It’s so true-when it comes to family and close friends, it’s really about mutual respect and understanding, regardless of personality types. Building new friendships can feel different, especially for introverts, but finding that balance in relationships is key. Can’t wait to hear more of your thoughts in your next video!

[@lea-anne9133]

One thing as a somewhat introverted person I have never had is FOMO.. I feel it's more the JOMO (joy of missing out) I've never felt like I am missing out on things. And when I do decide to join others on work outings and such, after an hour or two there, I am reminded why I DON'T enjoy such gathering. Maybe it's because as I've grown older i feel protecting my peace is more important than anything else 😊

[@vincentkr3w]

I feel that. It's self love to choose oneself first when other options are available. That's what feels good. That's JOMO🥰

[@CozyGirlzz]

Keep being you!

Your channel needs millions of subscribers ❤❤❤

[@IamDaria]

Aw thank you! 🥰

[@pujasaha5377]

I am from India.. I have started watching the videos and somehow I have realised that the beauty of nature can also be mesmerizing.. the brown leaves also can be as beautiful as greenery... Your video is so calm and peaceful that I couldn't stop myself from watching more videos... truly this appriciation you deserve it.

[@jamiemcateer1086]

"I found it by accident" (secret garden) Reminds me of: "Sometimes you need to get lost to find somewhere cool" This is awesome thank you Daria 😊

[@IamDaria]

This is very true! 😊

[@alreem611]

Your videos reach the other side of world where we don’t have any signs of autumn, So I enjoy your videos and speeches deeply from my heart. 🍁❤️

[@vincentkr3w]

32:44 THIS IS BIG. A lot of valuable learnings you shared with us here and I hope they reach many people who are invested in being happy even if that may require change😊😊

[@omariqbal6728]

Your videos r so peacefull

[@michellehooper661]

Totally relate to this, I’m a real lover of nature and find it so healing. I’m also quite an introvert, who used to have to be an extrovert in my managerial role I had a few years ago. I identify the mask wearing! I live a much quieter life now, slow living and living in the moment. I’ve discovered a love of photography in nature. Lovely channel, really nice and relaxing vlogs and nice to learn more about you 🍂💚🍂

[@IamDaria]

Thank you so much for watching and for sharing your experience! 🥰 Oh from reading comments I realise there are so many of us, masking burnt out introverts. I’m glad we’re finding our place in life!

[@Marsee800]

I really enjoyed your comments and thoughts on being an introvert, so many people don't understand. Thank you for sharing. ❤

[@arkanajj4874]

autumn is magical, thanks for showing us the beauty of your nature Daria

[@oldcrowcreations]

Good morning Daria! Thank you for sharing so much of yourself today. I feel the same about planning social interactions at the appropriate times so I’m focused and relaxed instead of overwhelmed. It is hard to keep my mind from thinking about things too much. In the past I would never speak out for fear of seeming combative or difficult. I try not to be reactive but I find now if something really bothers me I will say something to address the issue. When someone tells you not to stress about something or not to think about it, that doesn’t simply help. Lovely scenery today. Enjoy your weekend! 🤎

[@IamDaria]

Aah I’m glad you could relate! These are quite difficult things to manage and balance, aren’t they! It’w a long journey but so worth it at the end 🥰

[@Sofia_Purtseladze]

Watching your videos makes me calm❤

[@WritingArcadia]

I love when you talk about being a highly sensitive introvert. Your insights help in a world that is tailored for highly insensitive extroverts.

[@ilda-kunic]

I discovered your channel last year and I enjoy watching your videos. I love the aesthetic and stories you share. Your videos inspire me. ✨⭐✨

[@dinijas4356]

I love your channel and didn't know that you are latvian. I am too and been here for 16 years, as well as feeling at home more in the UK. Thank you for sharing the beautiful videos and examples of slow living. Lots of love! ❤

[@IamDaria]

Aah yes I don’t talk about it often, purely because I only know life there as a child/ teen but not an adult. 😊 I’m glad you’re enjoying your life here too and can relate though!

[@Mariel-u5p]

You are so wise and inspiring ! Thank You :) And beautiful autumn colours.... I love them too !

[@onepartwild]

Daria, you belong wherever you want and love to be. It doesn't matter where you're from. You've assimilated into your cultural surroundings and made a lovely life for yourself there, learning the language, etc. Like you, I don't have an attachment to my birth country and have made a different country my own {the US}. I would love to visit beautiful England one day and I thoroughly enjoy your videos of the beauty there.

[@vlad-mundi]

This was a lovely Q&A, thank you for making it and answering all of the not so easy to answer questions. From your answers it’s evident that you have thought about all of this a great deal. I do wish people had more chances in life to think and reflect in the same way. Perhaps then we would all live in a bit of a better world. Well done ❤

[@IamDaria]

Thank you so much 🥹🥰

[@creativitylive]

beautiful. it's November now, it's cold and wet, how happiness is to have a warm home and close people

[@doramarcelino768]

I liked the video a lot. Thank you so much for your honesty and wise words. I really appreciate your work. Big hug from Portugal.

[@sumanagowda]

Hi Daria! I really enjoyed this video...listening to your views, thoughts on various aspects of you. Its almost as if i know you a bit better (as a person) now It was very insightful besides being calm, peaceful and soothing to jangled nerves. Thank yuu ❤

[@alejandrorodriguez4189]

Starting my morning with a wonderful Q&A , Daria you are amazing at what you do, hope you have a wonderful weekend 😊🫶 I have a question, what were the obstacles you faced when coming up with videos you wanted to share?

[@user-nancykeene]

Thank you for this wonderful video, Daria!🤩 I have already admired this in the comments. But I can't help but mention it again. Your philosophy of life is incredibly close to me! And I never cease to be amazed at how clearly you formulate my thoughts. I have no questions yet, but I am ready to endlessly admire the landscapes on your canvases and in your videos, and listen to your thoughts ♥ I perceive watching your videos as a meeting with a close friend, a like-minded person, and it warms my soul! P.S.: My name is Natasha and I also turned 30 this year.

[@mags1958uk]

Thank you for sharing part of your life’s experience with us. I love following your videos.

[@vibekefreitag562]

Such a lovely and interesting video. Don’t worry we looove à long video, otherwise we can watch it over several, days😃🙌

[@gurkmeja2021]

Really can relate to what you say about selfcare time. I need lots of alone time. I've never met a man who also has that need. Unfortunately not even my husband.... I'm 64 years old and found out four months ago that I've autism. I've been masking so much in my life that I almost don't know how not to do it. I have 'work' to do! Great beautiful video! ⭐️🌟⭐️ Totally with you regarding ticks. Detest these horrible creatures so much that I don't want to go to our cottage in the forest at summer. One summer day my husband & I picked altogether 70 - 80 ticks from our rough collie's face.....😬 (she's medicated against them, but I still don't want them near her). Such lovely autumn colours in the video! 🍁🍂🍁🍂 /Ditte 🤓

[@IamDaria]

Aah thank you for sharing your experience! These are such important things to learn and understand about yourself and unfortunately our environment doesn’t always support that! But I’m glad you found strength and courage for self discovery. Oh and ticks.. that sounds so horrible! I totally understand though. They are such unpleasant creatures 😬

Gurk Meja.....Me pasa lo mismo con mi marido, no suele entender ni aceptar muchas situaciones. Nunca es tarde para lograr corregir lo que más se pueda. Un abrazo a la distancia.

[@gurkmeja2021]

@@montei.3310 Sorry to hear that you are also in that same situation. It's so very frustrating that the person you actually live with doesn't get it. Things sure could be so much better! Hope that you're having a good weekend. A hug from Sweden

[@montei.3310]

@@gurkmeja2021 Gracias por contestar !! Yo siempre he intentado que existiese el diálogo para así lograr un mayor entendimiento de las necesidades de cada uno, pero NO lo he podido lograr porque no es hombre de sentarse a hablar de las inquietudes de una, siempre contesta que el diálogo es una pérdida de tiempo. Yo ahora sí me impongo respetar más mi propio espacio, e intento hacer lo que me llena, le guste o no. Tengo tu misma edad, soy española pero ahora vivo en EE.UU. Gran país Suecia !!! Un abrazo.

[@gurkmeja2021]

Sorry to hear that, because it's making your situation so much harder. Wishing you best of luck in the future! 🌟

[@ellenkoen1500]

I loved this video!! The autumn vibe is soooo beautiful in the 'secret garden'. The colours, the old amazing trees and you answering our questions! Loved to hear where you were born and how you met your husband. I thought that was quite surprising: both in the same metal band! I have become someone who loves her moments alone, but i also do love people. It really is finding the balance! I'm 63 now and happy to have learned to say no or say that i need time to think about it before i say: "yes". That has been a real progress for me, being able to express these true feelings. It doesn't always come easy, but i know i have to to keep myself happy!! Thank you for this long video, i've enjoyed it a lot and it brought me some peace and quiet. Lots of love 🧡

[@Ftemaya]

What a great answer you gave; I enjoyed it❤

[@ancientenergy1111]

Home is where the heart is and you will always be at home when you are being self aware and living out of your heart. England definitely suits you but I’m sure on your journey you will go where your creativity leads you. You’ve not really slowed down as you seem busy to me, creativity can be busy but you are in a wonderful flow state and the earth recognises this and helps you along. Absolutely beautiful video again, thank you for sharing I really enjoyed listening to your story. 🍁

Loved this one ❤❤❤❤

[@SherryBaby1107]

When we are in our twenties I believe most all especially women are trying desperately to get to where we want to be in life we can place so much of our energy into what we believe we want yet what we don’t yet understand is that we are only just becoming adults it is these experiences throughout life that refine us as we mature further into our thirties we slowly realize that our thoughts change we gain wisdom and realize what we once thought was such a priority may no longer have been what was necessarily the best for us. As life truly is a journey it takes a decade or longer to come into our own what motivates us learning who we are realizing to accept ourselves vs following a crowd to fit a mold each layer we shed of seasons past we are gaining knowledge of who we really are which in turn changes our perspective which we simply cannot force it is time spent year after year changing growing living….Thank you for sharing!🍁🍂

Lovely video 💞

[@Escudera_de_Roble]

😃👍Dear Daria, thank you so much for this wonderful Q&A! 🙏 And of course, for answering my question! (BTW, it is amazing how perfectly well you pronounced my name!👌) You've given me some much needed tips to deal with an issue I find myself struggling with, and I also relate to what other subscribers asked, so I must thank both you and them for this lovely chat. 😊 It has been really useful, and have enjoyed it immensely! Your idea of having the speaking time interspersed with a walk, spending time in nature and returning to the cosiness of home was so great too! It gave movement and a story to this Q&A, instead of being static, as they usually are. And you were in a metal band!🤘😜 I noticed your voice was great for singing. (Now I'm picturing you as a young Tarja Turunen! 😉) Oh, and before I forget, I received your print this week (so thoughtfully packed and with a lovely sticker!😍) and I totally love it! Framed it immediately and it is a joy to watch! (And no tax issue this time!😁👍) Thank you for everything!! 🤗👏👏👏🥰😘

[@montei.3310]

Hola Daria...interesantes respuestas y en las cuales muchas de ellas han sido buenas reflexiones que la vida te ha llevado a tener. Me siento muy identificada cuando comentabas sobre tu país de origen, porque he vivido y he sentido lo mismo, y de hecho siempre de niña supe que tendría que ir a donde mi corazón decía que pertenecía. Aún así me tocó lidiar con algunas barreras, porque no siempre te respetan que no quieres sentirte de donde has nacido. Soy extrovertida, y ello NO significa que siempre necesite estar con gente, necesito también mi espacio, mi silencio, etc... al igual que tú explicabas que no por ser introvertida NO querías estar con gente. Es que es necesario marcarse un tiempo para uno mismo, pero lo más importante es NO disfrazar la personalidad de uno para contentar a los demás, o para ir al compás de todos... gran error !!, y hay que saber siempre que cuando NO estas de acuerdo con las ideas de otros, NO debes de callar sino también saber hacerte escuchar. Algo que también ayuda mucho a crecer interiormente, es acertar con la pareja, que sepa respetar cada tiempo tuyo como tú el de él, que ambos sepáis que en toda situación siempre debe de existir el DIÁLOGO para todo !!! y me da que ambos lo tenéis muy claro. Una vez más nos diste un bello paseo otoñal que es mi paisaje favorito, y que llevo unos años sin vivir esa estación, así que la disfruto mucho cuando la compartes. Un abrazo muy fuerte !!!!

[@jennieoh8543]

I am a new subscriber :*) I just love the calmness that your videos bring me. I am a introvert but I miss being social. I need to find balance in everything. I met my partner through music as well and we enjoy the occasional open mic night and he does have occasional gigs with different musical groups.

[@EnricaM-d2w]

More long videos please ❤

[@luanna59]

I truly appreciate your videos--they help to get me back to a proper head space, especially after a week at my employment. I too, also used to think I was an extrovert, but after carving out more time to myself over the years, I have also come to believe that I am an introvert personality. I purposefully did not subscribe or purchase a "smart" phone, as I could see from the start of that phenomenon that it would likely become overwhelming. I do not like the idea of my entire life being caught up in a smartphone, so I have kept my old flip phone for my long distance verbal communications, and only check it for close faminly and friends updates. I am seeing what smartphone technology has done to our world, and I do not like it at all. My idea of a good day, is to be at home and paint (watercolors primarily). I'm hoping to retire from my employment in another year (if that is still possible)--here in the U.S. nothing is for certain right now.

[@nathansmith9332]

The most surprising answer was...Mexico! I grew up not too far north of the border and visited for a vacation just a few months ago. I love it, but it doesn't strike me as the type of place that would attract many visitors from the UK.

[@hollypusheen7651]

Something I've always wanted to ask you- does someone go along with you to record your nature walks? As a woman, I don't feel like I can access nature alone, because I'm too wary of how vulnerable I am to being attacked. How do you find confidence to be a lone woman in nature, and how do you keep safe?

[@izuizabela6613]

There is this saying in Japan that sometimes the soul is not born to the right land, meaning your mentality and way of being just does not suit the country you were born in. I feel that deeply too. Born in Poland, I am neither catholic or a traditionalist, I hate the cusine and the weather. Sadly as a disabled person I am not wanted in any country being seen as burden to taxpayers. I am very happy to see another person from slavic nations finding place she belongs to :-) Best of luck to both of you!

Всё правильно:!Эгоизм ловко маскируется под такие общественно-приемлемые маски как экстраверсия и публичность вытягивая таким образом Энергию из людей -под более или менее благовидным предлогом.
