Hola Nicola!!! I just wanted to say that your videos are so nice and genuine… I am Colombian and I moved to Sydney 10 years ago I absolutely love it here . I have always lived a bit away from the city so I love watching your cafes/restaurants recommendations 🤍 I hope you have a beautiful Christmas here…it can get a bit hard during this time of the year being away from home 🥺

[@nicolaboyle_]

Aww thank you so much!! You have made my day ❤ I would love to visit Columbia some day, maybe you could give me recommendations for that 🥰

[@laka8888]

@ oh Colombia is such a beautiful country to visit, there is soo much to see and explore… 100% if you ever want plan to go, you gotta hit me up I’ll give you a whole list of places to go 🥰

[@nicolaboyle_]

@ it looks it!! Amazing, thank you 🥰

Loving your videos so much. Welcome to Sydney, you're right it is the most beautiful city but sadly also the most expensive now. The Xmas tree looks great and I think it looks great where you put it. I have to put mine up today. What star signs are you and Connor? How did he feel the next day after his run?

[@nicolaboyle_]

@@rvassallo1671 thank you ☺️ yes you’re right, unfortunately super expensive. Enjoy decorating today 🎄 I am a Taurus and Conor is a Virgo. He was in pain 🤣 but all good now!

Love the tree guys! We came to Sydney from Adelaide last Saturday and that weather was just amazing! Also, we have that tree at work and you have to make sure the connection cords to the lights on each section are plugged in securely..there is a connection for the middle and top section. Hope you get it sorted as it’s a beautiful tree.

@@Hazzy910 thank you ❤️ last weekend was so so amazing, unfortunately very different this weekend ☔️ we connected all three sections but no good, it is fused 🙈

I like an angel on a Christmas tree. Manly looks great as always. I might hop on a ferry & get to Barangaroo & then on to Manly now that the nights are warm & longer. We are so spoilt in Sydney 😎 Palm Beach is my favourite beach. You are able to do a tour of the Barenjoey Lighthouse

[@nicolaboyle_]

I love Barangaroo, Sydney really does have so many cool places to explore 😍 we had such an incredible day at Palm Beach, proper summer vibe! 🌊

[@starollymolly]

Love your videos. I live in Manly. Next time you’re over let me know! Would be great to say a hello to you guys :)

[@nicolaboyle_]

Aww for sure!! You must love living in Manly, it is paradise!! 🥰

[@starollymolly]

@ yes, it’s amazing, I’m very lucky. Your new apartment in mascot looks so nice too though!

[@madeleinetunstall5690]

In case you haven’t , thought I’ll just mention that the lights for the Christmas tree has usually got 3 plugs you need to plug in on the tree. It’s where each part of the tree comes together. But you probably have already done that. Love watching your channel from nsw Australia

[@nicolaboyle_]

Hi there 🥰 yes we secured the three plugs together but the second and top tier down work, fault unfortunately! We got some little fairy lights to wrap around it ☺️✨

[@Danger_Mouse3619]

You should take the lights back to exchange as they don't work.

[@louisaklimentos7583]

Enjoy the Aussie Christmas and have a barbecue on us 😃

[@nicolaboyle_]

Thank you so much! 😊

[@anneuibhaoill1184]

All you need now is a Polar Bear and it’ll just be like home 😊

[@nicolaboyle_]

@@anneuibhaoill1184 if only we had room 🤣

[@DeepThought9999]

The camera that you’re using has its image reversed (back-to-front, like a mirror). Very annoying. If you are using an iPhone, you can turn off the reversed imaging by going to Settings/Camera/Composition/Mirror Front Camera.

[@nicolaboyle_]

I always have that turned on ☺️

[@DeepThought9999]

@ That’s the problem. Why do you have it turned on? If you turn that option off (mirroring front camera), then your viewers will be able to see normal (not reversed) images. Much nicer and more considerate for your viewers.
