Dear Desi, I am an old lady who feels that you are a kindred spirit. We seem to enjoy the same asethetics, books and youtube channels. Is it because you are an old soul or that I'm young at heart? Either way keep up the good work! You will continue to entertain this wrinkled, old crone.

I’m so glad you shared about you and Jared sleeping in separate rooms - this needs to be normalised! My partner and I also do this, for similar reasons, and whenever we’ve told anyone they look at us like we’re insane, or assume that we must not have a good relationship. I honestly think so many couples would benefit from doing it!

My ex and I had each our own room and own bed and it was probably the best relationship setting ever. I slept well, he played game late as i likes, i had my room to paint and be a good introvert, he had his room to chat over the phone for hours as a good extrovert. And we shared everything else. It was so perfect I’m kinda sad because most guys would think I’m crazy as you say.

[@RG-jf5ep]

@Your Local dad curious why? Canada is beautiful but unfortunately it’s just not sustainable to live here anymore, we have some of the worst rates of wages to cost of living and housing is unaffordable unless you’re a millionaire. Our economy is a Ponzi scheme that’s dependant on oil and real estate that will likely collapse soon and everyone who can is looking to emigrate. I have no idea how the hell my kids would be able to afford to live here. Plus it’s incredibly boring and isolating, there’s no sense of community, nation or culture

[@RG-jf5ep]

@Todoroki Shoto there’s plenty of dirty places in Canada too, look up the east side of Vancouver (one of the most disgusting places I’ve ever been) or Sarnia or Hamilton. The beautiful areas like Banff would cost you a lot of money to live in. Where I live in Ontario, I would say is literally the same feel as where I went to in Southern Germany, but I found Germany WAY more beautiful because there’s historic areas

[@booksandwine6245]

@Todoroki Shoto that is so true!!! I'm german too and I really dont like it here. I don't think anyone my age I talked to likes living here. as you said, it is depressing. and the historical places may look good on tv, but they are actually not that pretty and really dirty

[@RG-jf5ep]

@Todoroki Shoto I actually did notice that when I traveled there, I feel like Central Europeans tend to be more brash/blunt? However I’m curious if it’s because you live in a big city? Because when I traveled to southern German towns, everyone was super nice, but in larger cities people were ruder (however I would say this is pretty similar to North America/globally as well) the rudest people I’ve ever met were New Yorkers, and people in Toronto can also be pretty rude

[@AwkwardExpression]

Yes to slow living! Shortly after I got married, I was diagnosed with Lupus that was triggered by my incredibly fast paced and high stress lifestyle. Since then, my husband and I have embraced slow living and only doing the things we feel we NEED to do. We both work from home teaching music lessons so we are very lucky that we have full control of our schedules and we love our work. And things we NEED to do also include activities like reading for an hour each evening with a fireplace video playing on KZbin or getting croissants to enjoy the next morning while listening to old French songs. Sometimes I forget how magical our life together actually is. Especially with all the classical music the fills our home when my husband practices. But this was a result of us being intentional about how we want to create our lives and letting go of things that are not part of this. It's hard but soooo worth it!

[@PeaceIsJesusChrist]

Yes! Normalize seperate bedrooms! It just works better for some and by some I mean my partner and I as well. Ten years together and we have often spent years having separate houses even and we have three children and are totally monogamous. I loved how Downtown Abby showed this as well because it used to be accepted that women needed a room of their own to feel like they could just nest in and often it was highly feminine and not as appreciated by the man, but honestly, I appreciate both masculine and feminine styles and I LOVE being able to go back and forth! We will sleep together at times and love being able to pick the style. That whole "my place or yours?" thing helps to allow us the space we need as both highly different and independent individuals, and yet spend as much time together as we please. Folks have thought for years that we were odd but it is so nice for us to maintain our own personal spaces! I love him and he loves me, but we also have self love and maintain our own personalities in a very opposites attract sort of way. I wouldn't change that for the world!

I also think it was brave to make this video and respond to some intimate questions.

I think it's beautiful to find some great inspiration and try to incorporate that in your life even when you don't have a possibility to really live in England, Shire, Green Gables or wherever your heart really reacts to (belongs to 🤔☺️?).

Totally love your channel. It still never tire of a country cottage! I love all my old things and I treasure my unique life and I also live in Utah. I am in Layton and I have all the books and movies you are talking about. So happy to find a lover of all things that love too. Blessed be

[@pinkypurple8790]

I would like to see a video about your dog! he seems so well raised and he is so cuuute and lovely! Like how did you get him, how did you raised him and everything about him!

[@aureliaruhlander3120]

Have you seen the movie Wives and Daughters? I think you would absolutely love it. It's a historical piece set just after the regency era. I think its even better than anything by Jane Austen. Seriously that good

[@crowfaerymori]

I lived on a few acres as a child, too. We had donkeys and chickens and I climbed trees. I loved learning more about you. You are inspiring! I think there's a lot of us out there who want to live in Hobbiton!

Yayyy Hufflepuff!! I also get that result every time I do the test on different websites :)

Desi, you inspire me so much!!

You’re so kind, thank you Carmel 🥺🙏🏻

Hi Desi, new viewer to your channel and catching up with your older videos. Like Tutts Clump I'm an older viewer (almost senior citizen but not quite). I was diagnosed with ADHD in my 40's so organizing my thoughts in a coherent manner can be a challenge. However, I love to write because it gives me time to say what I want to say....my handwriting is also a mess (sometimes I can't even read it) and it can take me longer to write a story than a lot of other writers. However, I have published short stories, author interviews, book reviews, and am working on a novel. You say you don't want to write your own story, and that's totally cool. But if you do, don't let your neural differences stop you. From the looks of you, you seem to be a person (like Anne Shirley) who can do anything she sets her mind to.

[@audreyringle5654]

Desi, you are such a beautiful and wonderful person :) I'm in highschool and that can be a little stressful sometimes, but you are so inspiring and your videos brighten my day =D

I used to romanticise my life too until i was bullied badly for being the ‘main character’. I was locked in a janitor closet , strangled ,spat on at school. At home my siblings hit me,i sleep on the floor with no blanket. So i became very bitter as an adult. I started hurting myself at 11 years old. I lost all my books while being homeless. Finding your channel reminds me of my old self. I missed her.

My hubby and i have our own rooms too! So nice to have our own space and we both get a good sleep. He's a night owl, I'm and early bird. Love hearing of others who do this!!

[@sandrabo3293]

I'm so happy that I found your channel. It's like straight from a fairytale 🧚🏼‍♀️

[@dearyawen]

Love from China! Love your vids so much and I've been watching your channel every night before sleep for a week now, somehow it helps me to fall asleep quickly and gave me a good mood the next morning

[@LisaVanGemert]

Soooooooooooo many couples don't sleep in the same bed or room! It's a little-known fact, but it's true, and it's so great that you are sharing it.

[@annarasumanara2004]

Your videos are so relaxing and beautiful. I aspire to be as free spirited and happy as you are. I am trying to fall in love with life again, it's quite hard if I am to be honest. But I know I can do it! Please stay wholesome and pretty. I love you!!!

[@LexiePersonForever]

i have mild dyslexia that i never really got help with so i didn't know my speech problems and bad handwritnng were probably also due to dyslexia. but i feel that. i think i fell out of love with reading when i realized how slow i read (~20 pages/hr, and the average person reads 40-50/hr) and it was discouraging, but when i stopped having expectations like that about reading, it became fun again

[@lovenicol8348]

I am from Romania and I love when people are interesting in that. Also I love your account 💗

[@DarlingDesi]

I would love to visit Romania someday! I’ve always loved stories and books set in Romania 🧡 And thank you so much, Ana 🙏🏻

[@annatheadventuress]

I so relate to the need for schedules and organization but also love to be spontaneous! Loved getting to know you more!

[@staroliva6502]

You are so adorable....Just love your vibe for vintage things,reading you have travel which is the best gift you can give yourself.

[@amyfrommn7224]

You seem to have the Anne Shirley spirit, I think that would be a kindred spirit ☺️. I enjoyed watching this mainly because you sound like someone I would get along with in person. I’m glad you and your husband also addressed that you sleep apart but are ok with it. 👌🏻 My husband and I are the same. He stays up late and ends up falling asleep on the couch.

[@ashtonkraai7844]

I know that this video is 5 months old, but I recently stumbled across your channel! I was also homeschooled, and in and out of regular school. I am also dyslexic as well, so thank you for sharing about that! Audio books are the best!

[@jillyjill2060]

I cannot express how much I love you and your channel!! You remind me of annie

Thank you 😃 I’m preparing for spring by letting my red hair slowly fade to a strawberry blonde 🙈

[@Zoe_C95]

You mentioned so many countries in this video, I would love to hear more about your travels!

[@bree4761]

Yes my husband and I don’t sleep together for that exact same reason and everyone thinks it’s so weird. Normalize waking up refreshed and not grumpy even if that means not sleeping with your husband 😂

[@cowgirl_in_pink_pearls]

OMG! You are gorgeous! Love your eyes!!! Your makeup is so pretty and I love that hair color on you!

[@biancasuiugan9866]

Omg I'm a romanian and knowing you researched about my country to understand some concepts about vampires is so cool to me😂 It's more fun considering I just talked about this to my sister last night😂😂

[@sophiabeeckman7219]

Every video you post is so calming and uplifting!! I love your positivity it is so contagious 💖💗 I was wondering if you have any videos on cottagecore book recommendations?
