Katy!! Please do an NYC series . Best food spots , places to go, shop etc. I think that would be a cool series to start on your channel

[@neidinmarie1354]

Mariama Bah YES!!

[@abbymyers6032]

Yes!!!

[@yariiiglecias9093]

Yes please! I'm planning to go to NYC in December so that will really help!

[@kellyvalois647]

i second this!

[@chronicallyVirgo]

You should be a storyteller or do podcasts, I loved your voice in the intro... it was like those movies where the storyteller is a girl talking about herself!

[@wiamyassine2082]

She has a podcast, it's called thick & thin look it up on anchor

[@chronicallyVirgo]

Wiam Yassine Thank you so much! Good to know! 😊

[@vinaythakur895]

hi. I want to talk with you please text me on instagram. @World_vinay

[@lachimolalart]

Gossip Girl vibes!

[@alexadematthews]

you’re intro and outro helped me realize that I still deserve to be here. I’m going through some things and your words changed my mindset. I don’t think I could ever thank you enough. I love you Katy❤️

[@fatherlandchild2780]

Dont let darkness imprison you. Youre a Diamond, made To shine.

[@alpacawhisperer]

I can't describe how incredible you are. You are one of the most multifaceted, talented people I have ever come across. You are so inspirational for me, because you are literally everything I strive to be but somehow can't achieve. It blows my entire mind that you have the time to create something like this, while also producing a podcast weekly, other side projects, having a full BLOWN social life, and having a real job with L'OREAL PARIS. And here's the kicker... nothing is ever half assed. You always put 100% in. Thank you Katy, you are INCREDIBLE. YOU deserve the world and all the success.

[@InventorWala]

Hii

[@invisiblekatie]

Katy, I love how your creativity shines through your work. Your vlogs are not just the average KZbin vlog; they are very much ‘hellokaty’ and so so unique and well made. It’s clear to see the effort you put into your content, and it certainly pays off. It’s always such a pleasure to watch your videos. Thank you for sharing your life in NYC with us all. Love all the way from NZ xxx

[@Hooobachi]

If you get coffee everyday you should invest in a cute reusable cup! :)

[@bogieboog]

Seriously?

[@LittleMissCommenter]

bogieboog Sure, why not? They’re cute and help reduce waste that ends up in the environment. Of course it’s her choice if she’d like to but I agree with Hana’s suggestion 😊 have a nice day ✨

[@kmiortiz95]

bogieboog seriously

[@TheGeorge2277]

How is a cup cute?

[@gabriellaborges1680]

@@TheGeorge2277 How would it not be cute?

[@emilyclaire1493]

I’ve been watching you since my sophomore year of high school and I’m 20 now! You seriously ALWAYS spark my creativity back up with all of the inspiration you give! So cool to see how you made videos in your college dorm and now you live in NYC working the dream job! So inspirational, your videos have never stayed stagnant but always been moving forward and the most creative in my opinion! You’re amazing!

[@emma-qh8kc]

WHY AM I CRYING IN THE CLUB, those thoughts are so comforting and this was so gorgeously edited, you’re doing amazing katy!

[@t-rex1599]

Just wanted to say, youre really pretty ❤.

[@cameronvidrine9465]

I wrote down your outro into my notes for me to look at when I'm feeling stuck. Thank you for the powerful message and great content!

[@tewsimple]

your life is like a movie! thank you for making your vlogs MORE than a vlog and inspiring others with positive messages on your platform

[@saraschiffmann5661]

your speech at the very beginning gave me so much confidence after days of confusion, breakdown uk just struggling about my future, which hasn’t even arrived yet as you said! Thxxx

[@TheMarijaSunshine]

You are doing something wonderful with the life you have, the creativity inside you and this platform. It just mesmerises me. It is wonderful to see how you have grown over the years and have created your own approach to storytelling. It trully is inspiring.

[@Lexierose1797]

Wow i really love this video. I really appreciate how transparent you are about your life. I am currently a Junior in college and I discovered your videos in high school. I've always related to you because you seem real, genuine, and like someone I would be friends with. You inspire me so much and I thank you for that.

[@Katherout]

these videos are iconic, Katy. well done !!

[@bevinst.pierre2857]

Can I just say that I’m ob-FREAKING-dressed with you and your videos and your style and your everything?! Ugh. Seriously in love with you.

[@kaelyndannenfelser1144]

Videos like this are what inspire you to power through.... and move to NYC!

[@Ash_wa]

This was beautiful. I loved the intro and outro, we need more people to talk like that. Because sometimes it can be viewed as pretentious but really its reality, and I think calling it pretentious is just a backlash of not wanting to think about life because yeah it's scary and weird. I'm feeling sad in a nostalgic way today, and I kinda was thinking of how I tend to think like that a lot. Romanticise the past, and think there's just something missing now that there wasn't then. I think we all do that to some degree. I don't know why and I don't know what the solution is. But hey, cupcakes are a thing.

[@vinaythakur895]

Dear Katy, I absolutely adore your talking/inspirational words/music parts of this video - ex. the beginning and end of the video. PLEASE do more videos solely comprised of those type of inspirational talks/quotes/aesthetics - really, really gets me motivated. & Your voice is soo perfectly soothing too

[@susukelly2458]

WATCHING ALL TGE THROW BACK VIDEOS we love you Katy 💖💖💖💖

[@xcherryrose]

You, by far, have the best VLOG footage of all the KZbinrs I watch. You actually put effort into your content and dont just slap together some random pointless pieces and clips for the money. Really inspiring and makes me miss my home town (New York)

[@juliekostas7322]

I needed this video (and its message) so badly today. You are an absolute blessing. I loved my nyc apartment days. Wishing you wonderful adventures, luv.

[@MrBiebersbabyy]

I couldn’t be more obsessed with you and your outlook on life. Such a good person!! Much love foreva Katy xo

[@courtland6227]

This seriously makes me want to move to the city or just any city lol.

[@sude9426]

The little talk at the beginning and the end gave me hope. It was inspiring. Thanks xx

[@jenniferscott2569]

God I’m obsessed with you! This is the first video I’ve watched and I’m hooked! I live how there’s a sex and the city vibe with the voice overs . You’re amazing !

[@loveandbeauty221]

this was amazing. the city shots, the scenery shots, everything. The intro and outro were just what I, and probably lots of other young people, needed to hear. thank you Katy ❤️

[@kathrynsorenson3764]

I’m here watching this video during this quarantine we are in and honestly Katy this gave me chills and so much hope. Thank you!

[@chandonm8359]

I enjoyed listening to your wise words. You're so inspiring, not only in those rough times we're all going through rn

[@bekahsweeney488]

Katy thank you for the beginning and end quotes. youtube needs more people like you

Thank you for sharing those amazing truths at the intro and outdo of your video! It really touched and comforted me from all of the weird things I’ve been feeling lately from school, work, life etc. It truly meant a lot to me. Loved this video! Please share where you got that silver metallic jumpsuit! I’ve been on the hunt for something exactly like that 💛

[@sararuggieri4752]

So I came to re-watch this vid In 2020 during quarantine (well, it’s easing now but still) bc I’ve been feeling so not myself lately with everything going on and the beginning of this vlog about not being finished was just 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻exactly what I needed to hear 🖤

[@sadiebaxter399]

The jumpsuit is everything!

Katy makes the most beautiful videos on YT hands down!!

[@sunnyjwatson]

Can I just say that I was having one of the worst days today, feeling like my life is spiraling out of control and like I can't do anything to fix it. I'm a senior in college and struggling in every way a college kid does, and this morning I was just about ready to throw my hands up and give up. BUT then I stumbled onto this video, and honestly I can't say how much needed that first part was. I've been subscribed to you for years now, but I don't watch youtube that much anymore. Boy am I glad I clicked on this video though. Thank you for this video, Katy

[@LilOliviaMarie]

how do you have friends in nyc? lol so random but did you meet them there? from work? know them previously? ive always wanted to live in ny but have been skeptical because i know no one

[@courtland6227]

I think a few of them are from college and maybe work? I'm not completely sure.

[@MadisonM1]

You should just move. NYC is a diverse place and you’re bound to meet people worth being friends with who will feel the same about you. :)

[@angelsface200]

It's pretty easy to meet new people in NYC. You can use this site called Meetup to meet people who have similar interests to you. There's also Eventbrite, and you can find events/talks and you can meet even more people at them. Trust me, it's not impossible.

[@stephlyndsey3932]

@@angelsface200 Meet up is awesome

[@44ascendingfire79]

Just think of all the immigrants who have been coming to New York for decades with just the clothes on their backs,Ellis Island and made it in the big apple 🍎. Don’t be discouraged by meeting new ppl take in the new positive energy and u will attract new positive ppl. I bet u a million dollars on that...good luck!!!
