Happy December, dear friends! Welcome to the cosiest holiday cottage! I am so glad you're joining me today and taking this time to wind down. Would you like to spend a weekend in a place like this? I would love to, but I would also enjoy preparing it for guests.

[@chrismorris6865]

I would love to spend a weekend here! Your videos are always so cozy.❤

[@thecottagelibrary]

Thank you so much, dear friend!! 🤎 So glad to hear that!

[@malgorzatakulaga3813]

Oh Indoora this is a beautiful picture in every detail. Being in such a sweet, cozy place is a wonderful winter dream. Thank you for these moments of peace, beauty and beautiful snow ❤️🌲🫖

[@thecottagelibrary]

Ohh thank you so much, dear one!! I am so glad you enjoyed it!! ❤️🌲🫖

[@0JReynolds]

What a wonderful place to spend the weekend. Especially with you 😘

[@henriettanovember4733]

How lovely! This video make me remember when, as a very young girl, I worked just like this, preparing old cottages from the 17th century in a huge forest (a National park) for guests, we also helped in the kitchen and the bakery and looked after the sheep and as I started to work there in late winter, early spring a new lamb was born almost every night. There was also a small chapel there, as old as the cottages, and in April that year we had a wedding and the bride was dressed in traditional dress, wearing her long braids as a crown (not white dress, folklore dress) It was a happy time!

[@thecottagelibrary]

Ohh my!! That would my DREAM JOB, Henrietta!! I almost jumped from my chair while reading this, I got so excited picturing it all. I am sure it wasn't an easy job, but I've been a bookkeeper for the last 15 years.. so this sounds something I would enjoy much more, hehe... and the way you described it made me want to be there!!

[@henriettanovember4733]

It was, in many ways, a free job. Lots of time in the outdoors. Some days it was less to do so we could explore the ancient forest around us. Some days we worked from early morning to late evening, very hard. But hard work is good for body, mind and soul! I liked it there, the nature was like a fairy tale and the whole place very peaceful. For the wedding I wrote about above the flowers never came so we had to get out in the forest and pick as many little white Anemone nemorosa we could find and then make her bouquet and all the decorations in the chapel and the tables from those little spring flowers. Made her look like a folklore dream. yes, many happy memories. We also learned to comb and spin wool by hand. I am grateful for my time there. One day you may very well have your own little place...preparing for guests...giving them beautiful memories and at the same time making memories for you too...@@thecottagelibrary

[@thecottagelibrary]

Ohh my, how wonderful!! I am fascinated and transported by your story. And I know hard work in the countryside can be hard, be I agree that in many cases it is good for body and soul. I worked picking and packing fruit some years ago. Sometimes we would work 20 days in a row, for 10 or 12 hours a day... I was full of bruises, but you know what, I was healthier than the years I worked as a bookkeeper. My mind was free, my chest was free of stress and worries. So I guess it has also to do with my nature and preferences, but yeah, I can imagine it being rewarding, even when it was hard. 🤎

[@athinoullasofokleous4883]

bravo!!!! if there are people in our busy days , that can live (this way) , they are from the most lucky in the world. Unfortunadly , we can't live all like that . How peasefull you cook , you bake , in my life everything is on a hurry , and I must do enything quickly, . That's why our lives are so stressefull. But after the battle we give during the day, I watch your videos and relaxes me. It's the time that is only me . Bye bye, thank you

[@thecottagelibrary]

Thank you, dear! I understand you, I run all day and even run between each scene I film! 🫣 it’s terrible. I hope we can enjoy a slower life eventually 🤎

Every time I see a box, candles, beautiful ornate chair, copper pots, candle holders, linens and pretties in general I loose my mind and begin searching facebook marketplace. 😂. I love all the beautiful things you have and how you place them. The music sends me to a dream world ❤. Lovely just lovely 🥰 ~ Janet 😘

[@thecottagelibrary]

Ohh, dear Janet! Thank you so much for your kind words! 🤎 when I visit the charity shops or flea markets I loose my mind 😅 I can’t stop thinking about the stories behind the objects!!! Thank you, someone wrote 7 comments this morning saying “stop putting music!” 😫 I’m glad you enjoyed it! 🤎

Im 49 and live alone. Im struggling with menopause so on certain days I can't deal with people or I just need silence. So to have your videos to watch with a cup of tea in the early morning while imagining Im there has been healing. Sometimes I wonder if I lived this life before its so joyful for me. Thank you for this. ❤

[@thecottagelibrary]

Oh, I am sorry you have those difficult days, dear, I understand you 🤎🌷 I am glad my videos can offer some comfort. I wonder the same many times. I must have lived in the countryside, in the mountans, and now my dream is to come back to such a place. Much love to you.

Thank you so much for allowing me to escape in the images and atmospheres you create. They inspire my imagination and give me ideas of how to create more of what I love in my home. Although my mind seems to work hard on ideas it's still slowing down while watching. The noise of the world gets into the background for a while. A true gift 🧡

Lovely Indoora. You are very clever. It all looks so real. I can almost look out a window and see your snowy forest. What happens to all the food etc. Do friends come and help you eat it?

[@thecottagelibrary]

Thank you so much 🤗 that little cottage is actually like a place for storage or electricity located in my town, but adding a fake window to my scene and the filming snowy places makes it feel all the same place. Sometimes I even use footage from different countries 😂 unfortunately I don’t have any friends or family where I live (I’m originally from Uruguay) and moved recently to a new town within Germany. Sometimes I share with neighbours but otherwise I eat it myself for several days 😊🫣
