Здравей, Рая! Аз също съм от Русе и гледам видеата ти отскоро. Ти и Луи имате мечтания от мен живот и всекидневно ме вдъхновявате да правя нещата, които искам. Гордея се с това, че сме съгражданки и че допускаш мен и толкова много хора да наблюдаваме част от живота ти. Даваш ми вяра, че е възможно едно момиче от малкото Русе да бъде дете на света и да преследва мечтите си. Благодаря ти :)

Hi Raya! I'm old enough to be your mom: I was 24 when you were born! 😊 I've been watching yours and Louis' videos. I'm also an ESL teacher, and have taught ESL to kids and adults. I'm about to start a new teaching position working with refugees and immigrants. I'm for sure going to try to use this video in my classroom because it shows so well the struggle to learn English and become a part of the U.S. You have such a lovely heart and such a talent for filmmaking as well! Thank you for making this! ❤️

Very cool Raya! I moved 15 times before I graduated from high school, that included four countries and 12 schools...I completely understand the "not fitting in" part. It's not even really about not living in the same place for very long, it's just that life looks different to a global nomad. People always ask me if I liked the way I grew up and I always say that it made me who I am now, it has been an amazing life so far. Keep up the good work!

Very cool, Raya! I can 100% relate to your life, moving 9 times, jumping around schools, waitressing/bartending in London to afford travel and finally taking that leap and then getting into vlogging. Traveling is the best best educator and way of life in my opinion. The only difference is I travel alone, I'm such an introvert but I would love to meet you someday
