I just wanted to say, I relate deeply to the journey you've described with PCS, and it means a lot to me that you've shared your experience with brain trauma to your audience. Over the last few months, I've experienced physical and mental trauma that brought me to a place where I had to receive mental health treatment at a psychiatric hospital. Seeing you fully actualize your life and talk about the mental scars that you've been through has been a beacon of light to me over the last few months, as it gives me hope that I can come out of my trauma a stronger and more honest version of myself too. Wishing you the best, and all love from PA!

Omg, I loved that you recommended Kerstin Gier! She is my absolute fav author for comfort reads! I read all her YA books to my mom (some of them multiple times) and I very seldom see people talking about them who didn't read them in German. I always assumed that maybe the magic of her writing style gets a little lost in translation.

Your videos are really wholesome, sweet and easy to watch; not superficial but comfy. You look like one those friend one would like to have just to chat about random stuff and who is going to be there when one needs it. As a Colombian, we have great works of national literature, as you mention (I can give you some suggestions if you want), but probably Japanese or Argentinian Literature would have more variety. The most fitting answer for you may be French or Italian, as you know the languages, and their literary tradition is so rich, from Dante and Chrétien de Troyes to contemporary authors. Anyway, thanks for the video.

That first track is like slipping into a silk chemise, it's just so scintillating & cozy at the same time. The entire score is one I play over & over.

English has been a huge part of my everyday life for years now and I completely agree on the importance of that to learn a language really thoroughly and overcome your inhibitions. Plus it's much more fun than what you might do in class lol. But you didn't have to call me out on talking to myself. 😅😅😉 Also yes to the overly specific playlists, I can relate.
