my first time in LA

[@kennedywebb]

as an LA native, this was by far the best LA vlog i’ve seen from a youtuber-it feels authentic and i’m so glad u got to experience different parts of LA and socal-hope you had a good trip

[@JESSIESGIRL]

I AGREEEEE

[@moyamawhinney]

awwww thank you so so much!!

[@julien.6387]

I also agreeee I live this channel I have never found one like it

[@Kre8tif]

A vlog showing a balanced mix of southern California’s natural beauty and its cultural coolness. I lived in Laguna for three years and LA for the next 25 (from 1976 to 2002) before moving to Paris. Moya’s a talented filmmaker.

[@beatrixdavis941]

Moya you capture things in such a beautiful and indescribable way. The cinematography. Just wow! you are so talented.

[@MilesToGoGo]

I lived in LA for six years and I will say that even though every single bad thing people say about it is absolutely true (people, traffic, cost, etc.) it is still one of the most amazing cities in the country anyway. Honestly living there as a non-wealthy person isn’t for the weak but I look back on those years as some of the best of my entire life so far. There’s so much to do and see and eat, the weather is impeccable, even driving a couple hours in any direction will bring you somewhere magical. Ugh this video really made me miss it lol you seem like you’re having a fabulous time!

[@moyamawhinney]

awww thank u !! I will say sunny weather 24/7 is definitely something I can get behind ... but yeah maybe once I can drive and have more freedom id love to go back !

[@moilafillesuryoutube]

i love Moya’s vibes it’s so comforting 🥹

[@livsinanemotionalblender]

Thank you for this Moya!!! The cinematography?! The whole video was so calming and exactly what I needed right now! ☺️

[@88ashjen]

I’m from California born and raised and it’s more than Los Angeles! I grew up in LA but in a small beach city and it’s just great! You can find an organic experience that is outside of the glitz if you let yourself have that experience. The one thing I love about travel is showing how everything in each country is not monolithic. Your video definitely makes me miss SoCal!

[@MilesToGoGo]

When I lived in LA one of my favorite things to do was to leave LA lol meaning that yeah just and hour or two outside the city will bring you too a completely different environment. I live in gloomy Portland now and I definitely miss SoCal often as well!

[@Angel-zs3uf]

i actually prefer your vlogs like this where it's kind of all over the place but feels like stitching together memories and mood and feelings,, lovely lovely lovely moya x

[@christinagraham6795]

your bond with fiona seems extremely healing. Love you both thank you for this video.

[@sydneyfriedman_]

I grew up in LA but moved overseas for school and this made me miss home. You captured daily life so well and i found myself remembering the little adventures my friends and i had driving around Hollywood and going to the beach after school. I can't wait to be back in a couple weeks ❤️

[@rawrtid]

"for fiona, the best moments in LA were spent with you" so cute

[@adorehaeven5607]

moya ! you are the most precious being in this world ⭐️

[@Nazfash8]

I agree

[@user-zz1xf3jz1g]

Finishing my last few exams of college in Ireland and these videos give me such hope for the big scary life after education. Thank you, Moya x

[@claraschroeder1749]

I'm finishing my last semester of uni in NZ too and I feel the same way, Moya makes the big wide world beyond uni a little less scary. Good luck for your exams!

[@poppytomlinson]

As someone who lives in la, it's nice to see a diffrent perspective of the city, it makes you appreciate it more! ILYSM Moya!

[@estellebortolato-robin4577]

This is a piece of art, a reminiscence of all the movies i see on this city, a personnal and luminous diary. I follow you since Dublin diary and I just want to thank you for all the ideas of travel you bring to me.

[@theaysenurs]

omg!! i really miss the feeling of this video so much. dance of the waves, the sound of the wind, long pizza nights with your friend, i know all of these and you deserve all of them, I hope your life will always be this peaceful. even the video made my day and mood, thank u girl🩵🍒✨️xoxo

[@NomadMimi]

my god Moya you make us dream, you remind me to the beautiful summers where I though I was invincible and I could do anything in the world. Really love this video- But all of them as always since some years ago. Loads of love.

[@sibelk.2197]

Moya ure a True artist, I‘m amazed by your filming and editing skills. Thank you, for this beautiful video

[@Nazfash8]

I just want to learn too😢

[@moyamawhinney]

🥹🥹🥹🥹 thank you!!!!

[@asiavxv]

as someone who’s lived in la my whole entire life, i will agree with the top comment about how this is the best LA vlog that ive ever seen and ive been watching yt videos for 13 years now so this says a lot! the calmness and peacefulness that this video made me feel warms my heart and honestly makes me want to go outside more and spend more time with my family and friends. ive always seen la as such a busy city where everyone is always rushing and doing their own things but sometimes i forgot how calming our beaches are and how calming nature is in general! ty for capturing such beautiful parts of la in such a peaceful and wholesome way, much love 🫶🏽

[@folklorefaery]

the way this is edited feels so serene and almost like I was there too, thank you for such a beautiful video, moya

[@tralala88]

You have such a beautiful way of capturing the essence of places that it feels like some sort of distant dream. Thank you for sharing your gift and taking us along on these magical experiences with you.

[@edielostcontrol]

I just realised why your videos seems so comforting! They make me feel like I'm watching old home video where I was hanging out with friends/family. I love it

[@awralasaxar]

you’ve captured la so beautifully 🥹 i’ve lived here for around 5 years now and feel like i have a newfound appreciation for the city because of how gorgeously you’ve portrayed it. great job moya ❤️

[@suhilahfanpage]

[@c9wboylik3me]

[@withirsa]

Iloveyou moya! You are one of my most favourite people. Your videos are a source of comfort. You made me fall in love with travelling and i am yet to travel solo someday. But i am mustering up the courage to even plan that just because of you. Love and prays

[@Nazfash8]

I love her too

[@jasmine-amelias]

wow as someone whos watched from your second ever video - your cinematography and story telling is so beautiful and has really evolved ! you should be proud x

[@n0tharley]

I really love your channel. recently, ive been feeling very unmotivated, and I didn't really know what I was gonna do with my life after school and I always got stressed out because I didn't have any set goal, and goals are what get me out of bed in the morning, but I saw your paris vlogs and I immediately fell in love with the idea of living in paris, i think it's such a beautiful place to be, and I found a new goal and a reason to keep going, and I just wanted to let you know and thank you

[@aishabah9401]

moya, i love you so much, your videos are literally my therapy, thank you so much for posting and being consistent , i appreciate it🫶💛

[@Nazfash8]

You’re video really gets better with each one… haven watched you for a very long time “ Living in dublin days” am so glad to see the consistency

[@avokardoes7]

[@meliaMia]

Unfortunately I spent the entire time worrying about how much money all of this would cost. I hate my mind and capitalism, but love love love Moya’s enthusiasm 🥰

[@llamabeee]

i’m a socal girlie.. but a little to south & aren’t to able enjoy the things close to LA, but every once in a while i hop on the metro link and go to the city to explore, or make my a 1hr+ drive to the beach. it’s not often when I enjoy these things, but that makes them even more special. thank you for sharing bits and pieces of your stay in california. i now have places to visit on my future adventures hehe 💕sending love 💕

[@awinel2367]

this somehow was so incredibly comforting to watch, thank you for this moment of peace :,)

IDK WHYYY BUT I LITERALLY SOBBED WHEN “FOR FIONA…” POPPED UP :((( ILY MOYA!!! URE AN INSPIRATION TO ME!!!

[@annemxma]

thank you for this vlog moya :) throughout the whole video i could really feel that dreamlike sensation that you were talking about at the beginning, the music and the clips of the various landscapes made it so peaceful and soothing, i loved it ! LA looks like a really nice city, it's definitely not the same as cloudy paris (but i guess i would have the same problem with the lack of transportation) also you looked like a little kid in her parents car in that clip 22:46 🥺🥺

[@ghita9606]

the vibes from this video are immaculate !! I had a great time watching it, it brought me sm peace

I love moya vlogs sooo much! Always leave me feeling inspired and also dreamy(?) :)) for the longest time I’d always wanted to visit California (ofc SoCal) , and coming from the Washington D.C. area I was so thrown off because I was used DC being so walkable 12:13 was very relatable 🤍

[@VeeMarieS]

I love SoCal!! I visit as often as I can. There is always something new to do and a new experience that I’ve never had before. The one thing I have to see each and every time though is that ocean!! I’m glad you enjoyed yourself.
