Walking on the boardwalk through the forest felt so ethereal and inviting, I really appreciate those kinds of video clips.

[@caricakes]

the light that day was perfect!

[@kayleestichter3632]

The fact that I only watched your book channel for years before watching your home channel vlogs is a CRIME. This was beautiful as always.

[@adriennehilll]

crying that avo toast looks legendary omg

[@caricakes]

there was a sweet onion chutney/jam thing going on under the avocado too :'''')

[@Meowmix1501]

I’m obsessed with Haunting of Hill House. One of my favorite parts is that Flanagan actually had a full cast of background ghosts that lurk around the house. I thought I would mention because you might have missed them since you were cleaning. There are articles online telling you where all the hidden ghosts are, but it’s also fun to find them on a rewatch. One of their favorite places to lurk is on either side of the stairs!

[@e_guy7931]

Ok this might be totally random but just needed to say how much I loved that final Wednesday shot of everyone going down the subway platform stairs. Can't explain it but I just think it was so gorgeous

[@caricakes]

right? something very satisfying about that hahaha

[@Sophia-rq6oo]

I love getting to see Seoul through your lens. I live in Europe & idk if I’ll ever visit South Korea bc it’s a big & expensive trip. And if I did go visit, I’m not sure how much I’d be able to enjoy Seoul in person bc I’m really not great with handling big cities (I get sensory overwhelm very quickly). So I just really appreciate getting to see this city through your videos ❤

[@cj-gunn]

I always appreciate how you are able to provide such a balanced exploration of the juxtapositions within Seoul city ❤💙

[@caricakes]

im thankful seoul is a city that lets me dip into nature when i need :'''')

[@joanahenriques8863]

That upward shot of the tall trees ENDED ME! That was stunning and so peaceful 🥲

[@caricakes]

theyre so tall that sometimes i forget to look up to the tops! theyre stunning :')

[@megu_asmr]

These vlogs always make me feel so relaxed and at ease, thank you for posting 🫶

[@caricakes]

thank you for watching!!

[@aannaa-718]

cari!! i just visited Seoul for two weeks this summer for the first time since i was 9 (i was born there but was adopted and have lived in the US my whole life) and this vlog (all of yours tbh) made me miss it so much, you went to so many places that i remember being so vividly and manage to capture so many little day to day moments that i will cherish always

[@hgkang7046]

요즘같은 선선한 일요일 아침 루틴은 - 잔디가 보이는 발코니에서 cari cakes 영상 틀어두고, 커피 마셔요. cari cakes의 영상은 가을날 일요일 아침의 vibe같은 그런게 있어요😊 담 달에 한 달 동안 그리웠던 한국 갑니다!! Yay!

[@tessavio]

I felt so seen when you reacted to haunting at hill house. It was too scary for me and don’t watch a lot of horror shows/movies. What’s also so relatable is putting something on in the background while trying to clean but then getting distracted for a good bit of it. Loved the video as always :)

[@caricakes]

it was SO good!!

[@annaksmith9608]

I haven’t been following you for long but I think I found you right when I needed. I’m trying to live a slower life coping with anxiety and your videos make me feel so safe, validated and heard. Thank you for your content, you inspire me to create as well

[@mirmir445]

Auggggg ~ my heart is so warm from your videos! I just moved away from Korea and it is so healing seeing little glimpses of where I used to call home

[@caricakes]

Im sure korea misses you too 🫶🫶🫶

[@nuradibah9758]

starting my calm sunday mornings as per usual with your vlog! thank you for yet another beautiful one (really needed that nature intro so bad 🥹) & hope its been a beautiful start of autumn for you! 🧡

[@caricakes]

same to you! happy autumn!

[@aireegoings1247]

Omg I haven’t seen your videos in years! I’m happy you are still posting because I love your videos, they are so comforting. And they helped me plan my trip to SK. I am coming to Korea for 6 weeks in march/April for cherry blossoms and I can’t wait

[@caricakes]

omg yes im still here :''') hahaha and i hope you get peak cherry blossoms!

[@aaliyahsakinaharifinputri55]

i loved the haunting of hill house too especially the one shot scenes omg a masterpiece

[@carolineblueskies]

It’s rainy here in DC this morning, so this felt like the perfect way to ease into starting the week

[@jungkooksboozybud]

Your vlogs are one of the things that have been keeping me alive lately. Thanks for posting such calming vlogs, Cari! Seoul is truly a beautiful place to be!❤

[@caricakes]

sending you so much love!

[@rensvh98]

I haven’t had time to watch your more recent videos so tuning into this one honestly felt like catching up with a close friend after a while 💞

[@tarastrickland7237]

After hill house you should watch bly manor and the fall of the house of usher! So good!

[@anamoarry3750]

Ohhhh cariii you are the one that made fall I love with Korea and Japan… (to visist) you make solo traveling seem relaxing, intriguing and adventurous. Makes me dream of a day where it’s only me and a new city… new restaurants, new cafes, new studios, new trees, new ponds.. new all. Need to start saving

[@lisaswenson1999]

Yes MOOMIN umbrella ☔❤️

[@caricakes]

still cant believe i got that at a convenience store! blessed!

[@SuperJazzface]

I'm not a commenter usually but I wanted to tell you that I absolutely adore your videos. They are my go-to for chill out brain time and I appreciate them so much. Thanks for your work ❤️

[@christaallen2105]

Haunting of Hill House is one of my favorites!! But it's better watching it at night, curled up on the couch!

[@Joshis]

That hiking path looks sooo nice! I love the pouring rain actually, as long as there isn’t any flooding😅

[@caricakes]

after 3 months of rainy season, i am done with the downpours hahahhaa

[@Itsfaiza95]

Oh hoping picnic with cari someday 🙈❤ A travel trip looove it❤❤ Love watching you beautiful Cari😍❤

[@jacsYT]

i don’t get scared while watching scary movies but then i can’t fall asleep, like i saved all the fear for bedtime 😬

[@caricakes]

lol our rice cooker made a noise in the middle of the night and i BOLTED awake hahaha

[@everydaywithashley6702]

This one is making me miss Korea so much! I'm feeling especially nostalgic about that color green that is often on the roofs!

[@baeticat]

I just came back from a two week trip to Korea. Reliving my wonderful trip through your videos ❤❤

[@yourfavouriteflower]

You could not create a cozier vibe if you tried 😭❤

[@Willbefineline]

If you loved that show, I highly reccomend Midnight Mass. Same creator, equally spooky and good! Or The Fall of the House of Usher.

[@caricakes]

oh house of usher is definitely on my list but i'll look up midnight mass too!

[@bobbobson4869]

He also did Haunting of Bly Manor. Equally as fantastic as the other three shows.

[@caricakes]

@@bobbobson4869 yes i saw haunting of bly back when it came out so i was really confused why hill house had the same cast until i looked it up hahahaha

[@bobbobson4869]

⁠@@caricakesoh yeah, the Director Mike Flannagan loves using the same actors for all his projects. It helps that they‘re all fantastic.

[@Lucy19103]

Came here to say this! Midnight Mass is so good Cari, I think you’d love it!❤

[@javiruizv770]

Love these peaceful just walking in neighborhoods vlogs 🥹✨🌿🤎

[@poppycalliope]

The waterfalls are just breathtaking. Spending time in nature is definitely one of the best ways to relax and calm ourselves down. Trying to not feel bad when I've had an unproductive day is so me 😅 Beautifully created as always Carrie ❤

[@caricakes]

[@danielariveraherrera9421]

Just in time to wind down before bed 💕✨

[@caricakes]

sweet dreams~!

[@CinemaDaveMedia]

Wow, those trees are amazing. So beautiful. My wife and I really liked Mike Flanagan's Midnight Mass on Netflix. We are watching mostly older horror films this year (Universal horror) and lighter horror comedies. Thanks for another thoughtful and inspiring vlog.

[@girlskylark1816]

your reactions to the show were everything HAHAHA

Im so glad you publish your vids when you do! They are the PERFECT thing for a slow sunday morning with coffee

i did ceramics all through school and always had a lot of fun so i can't wait to see your piece(s) when they're done!

[@caricakes]

yes!! i took two languages so i couldnt take an art elective and i really regret not being about to do ceramics :'''')

[@juliannecha17]

Haunting of hill house is the best horror series imo (def the best among the other haunting series) ❤

[@caricakes]

agreed :')

[@AmyFaith]

Ooh Cari I was in Seoul just before Chuseok and I saw the weird orange/purple sky on the 13th too! We came out of a subway station and I was like "is this judgement day!?" 😂😂 Also I'm starting to vlog again soon and I wondered what the camera is you're using (on the cafe table at 8:31 ) xx

[@Spark877]

Always so much to watch, thank you for what you do.

[@daisyheart94]

Cozy video as always (perfect for sunday morning / germany) 💓💓💓 Have fun in slovenia!! I cannot believe I'm going on first october fly to korea for the first time!! 😭🥰

[@caricakes]

thank you so much and yesssss october in korea!!!

[@passion_in_progress]

Awh, I'm living through you vicariously. I came to Seoul to stay for a few weeks, and the first one I'm spending sick.😫 The forest looked gorgeous. The pastries and coffee and everything looked so good, but I have zero wants to get anything other than water 😅 and the walk to find the pottery studio looked so picturesque. I will say I know what you mean about trying to focus on just getting back home, there's always so many people and so much going on. The first Saturday I had to take the subway to hongdae I was so uncomfortable with the amount of people. It was wild.

[@juliet7196]

Loved the video, thank you Cari!

[@caricakes]

thank YOU!

[@msaditu]

Your reactions to the show are priceless 😂

[@poorthinsss]

Midnight mass is the superior flanagan work imo. Midnight mass >hill house>house of usher. All great for the spooky season ❤❤❤

[@caricakes]

put it on my calendar to watch when i get home from my trip!

[@scribblesandscrawls]

Omggg haunting of hill house is one of my favourite tv shows ever, I watched it like 5 times (mostly while introducing ppl to it lmao) and yes it’s better watched with full focus 🤣

[@caricakes]

yeah i could NOT look away hahaha

[@AllyPetersonRN]

I Loved Haunting of Hill House. I have watched it every October since it came out ❤

[@samanthalan6963]

Oh, to watch 'Haunting of Hill House' for the first time again *sigh* what a treat

[@caricakes]

:''''')

[@mattkean1128]

Hill House has one of the best jump scares I've ever seen 😂 You've probably already got to it by now. His other show Midnight Mass was excellent.

[@caricakes]

cant wait to watch that one!!

Hi Cari! I don't know if you read messages or comments, but I'll insist 'till I can reach you, to THANK YOU. I found your booktube channel a few months ago, and you've inspired me to read again after years! Also, I've watched your plot summaries of Acotar and Crescent City an absurdly amount of times. It has helped me get trhough a specially difficult year of my life. You have helped me. And I need to make some of the love get back to you! Lots of love, from Argentina.

[@caricakes]

thank you so much for this :'''') getting back into reading the best thing that happened in my life so im happy i could help you come back to it too!

[@lailakay666]

Hill House is SOOOOO good. Bly Manor is okay, not nearly as good. Midnight Mass gives lots of religious trauma vibes so be careful/mindful if that is a bother. And Usher was okay, a little gruesome. Nothing tops Hill House though. It’s truly better the second time around! I convinced my husband to watch it and it was sooo fun to take in more of the ambiance.

Omg I haven't watched the haunting of hill house yet because I was too scared to watch it after reading the reviews..and also was a bit afraid that maybe it would turn out boring like bly manor😅😅..but now after reading so many comments I'm gonna definitely watch it!!..

Hill house is scary, truly scary. Mike Flanagan did really great with that one

i thought i knew what i was going into because i read the book but i was very wrong hahaha
