there's something i can't quite pinpoint about cari's vlogs that tugs the strings of my heart in the best way. your film phototography, the way you love people and look at the world, you just get it! thank you for one more year around here

[@Wooplot]

Don't forget the tunes too! :P

[@rchmoon]

[@fhernachingerzwerg]

Thank you Cari for being part of my life for so long! I hope you had a wonderful time of festivities, food and family and got to recharge. Your videos always bring me so much joy and peace. End and beginning of years make me so emotional 🥹🥹 just had to drop it here!

[@yona9678]

I agree, with it 😊

What kind of breed is Louie?@@caricakes

[@ana-xx6tn]

What's breed is he ?

[@brooke-d]

@@Kat_1490 I'm pretty sure he's a Corgi but I could be wrong.

[@caricakes]

He's some kind of chihuahua spitz pomeranian mix? he's from the shelter :')

[@vesperstudio]

Cari, I understand that short-form content is probably more favored by the algorithm, but I personally LOVE your long videos, I usually put them on in the background while I'm cleaning 😅 Hope those won't disappear completely. Keep up the great work, love both your channels ❤

[@anushkajoshi.1631]

There's something so beautiful about Louie's eyes, especially when she looks at you ❤️

[@AndreaMartinez-vh4nz]

I will always credit you for reminding people to enjoy the simple everyday things such as sourdough bread with blueberry jam and play time with pets ❣️✨

[@krisz5501]

love that each dog encountered got an ample amount of scritches

[@Giga-lemesh]

Louie is seriously adorable

[@pinarkak]

Your videos light up my whole day. Is it the way you capture magic in the ordinary? Or maybe the songs you choose that whispers to my soul? Or perhaps it's your adventurous spirit, taking me on journeys from afar? Whatever it is, they paint my days with vibrant colours. Please, oh please, keep weaving these beautiful spells! Sending you endless love from across the pond. 🧡

[@caricakes]

thank you so much for this 🥹 sending love right back!

And people wonder why I'm still single... I'm waiting until I find a man that looks at me the way Louis looks at Cari... OMG my heart - Thank you for your 2023 content, your posts are something I look forward to immensely... 2024 here we go... Kaja!!

[@aguerreroc98]

i wish i knew how to put this into words, but when you go home it feels like you’re complete and your face shines brighter (maybe it’s louie lol). thank you for talking about the hardship of having to choose where to be for festivities. i feel like we’re friends by now 💌 sending love

[@anansue]

Because it wasn’t monetized and we all loved the music choice, next coffee is on me ❤

[@LSChestersMom]

I love your longer form content... wonderful if you could make your long form and take segments out for short form? Louie is the cutest ever :) I hope one day you all get to be in the same place :)

[@cliacbtt]

This video touched my heart and my eyes watered sometimes. Spending Christmas home and taking a flight after that kind of connected me with what you filmed. And I’m feeling nostalgic… I also experienced this rushing of the last season and I’m grateful that I had my time home to slow things down Like you said, having beloved ones in different parts of the planet can be excuting, but not really easy. I always feel emotional after having spent time home, I need to get back to the routine, but with new propositions So thank you Cari for giving me some inspiration for how to handle the new year

[@LegendMadison]

Cari, I love and am grateful for your long-form book content. I struggle with anxiety-induced insomnia, and your videos help keep me grounded. My hubby even likes listening to your stuff now too and gets bummed when I watch without him. Thank you again for going above and beyond with the effort you put into your content. Happy New Year and Birthday to you ♥

[@paulbk7810]

One of the great joys of life is watching vids of people with a life to show us how it's done.

[@jenniree29]

You can really tell how much Louie loves having you around. It is precious. Glad you got to go home for a bit. Pennsylvania is so pretty. You share the same bday as my best friend of 36 years. 😊 Mine is December 29th and my brother’s is the 26th. The Capricorn energy is strong in our circle. Lol Happy Birthday AND 2024! ❤

I am also a Jersey Girl who lived in Asia (Japan) for some time! I used to go into the city to see Broadway shows all the time. These days, if I go in, I'm there for Book Off and Kinokunia over near Bryant Park. Gotta get my Japanese books! I hope your holidays were restful. Happy New Year!

I love your book videos and actually read a few books because of you, so thank you very much!! And Happy 2024!!!

[@sorrynerozumim8605]

Totally relate to what you said. I've got 4 siblings, and we live in 5 different cities (and 3 different countries...) so getting all together at once is impossible. You spend summer with 2, Christmas with another one, and just try to make the time you have worthwhile :) Thank you for another beautiful video, happy New Year and Happy birthday!🎉

I'm finally catching up on so many your vlogs I missed last few months ♡ always so comforting and easy to watch, gives me a peaceful feeling ❤

[@Justin-do7wr]

My dog, who looks like a long-haired Louie, does the same thing as Louie (wipes his face in his bed or any nearby blankets) every time he finishes eating! My partner did some research, and it apparently means he really enjoyed his food and felt satisfied by the meal -- or that his face was just dirty. I prefer to believe the former. Loved the vlog and hope you have a great new year!

[@caricakes]

i love that too hahaha especially considering how excited he is for every meal, the logic tracks!

[@caromurray6152]

Lovely vlog, belated Happy Birthday & Happy NY. So glad Louie is protecting everyone😮 from those pesky squirrels!

I swear your videos are therapeutic. I was having the most intense day and week so I was feeling anxious. Watched this and now Im like eh... everything's okay 😂 Might even go for a walk and get some fresh air 👍 Thank you for the amazing content ❤️

I got sad for Louie when you left. Lol Jealous of your snow! I'm in NH and we've had only 2 snowfalls...very unusual....

Thanks for the lovely video! I could watch you go for walks all day! Bonus getting to see louie so soon! I wish I lived somewhere where I could take daily sanity walks. I walked in Naksan Park everyday during my stay in Seoul. I miss it so much! Happy New Year!♥

[@tinagarcia3571]

You just missed the snow back in Penn. but got some in Seoul great!. Love Louie so much, my little maltipoo Shasta has been barking at the deer while snow is coming down and now the giant owl out in one of our trees and Shasta are vocally competing, so much for the deer lol. You look very relaxed and happy. Thanks for the video of N.Y. at Christmas, nice to look at but cities give me anxiety. Time for hot chocolate.

[@natalieann102]

The music is sooo good 🥲

[@caricakes]

thank you :'')

Hope everything's okay with the family. But appreciate all the Louie content :) My parents' dog has a bed in every room too haha but yep definitely get the weird end of year feelings. Wishing you a wonderful 2024!

I haven't commented much lately but, as someone who works in tourism, December is absolutely crazy. Your videos have offered me a respite in all the madness, so thank you Cari for always being a place of confort and peace. It's much appreciated. I hope you have a wonderful year.

I have a sudden need for blueberry jam on sourdough. Also why is Louie absolutely the cutest!!

Wishing you both every happiness for 2024. Thank you for your amazing vlogs which I have been following for quite a while. My daughter is currently on her year abroad in China for university. Christmas was so strange and I missed her so much. We will have another Christmas when she comes back. Although she has been away, it’s something she has worked so hard for, so I am equally proud of her. Looking forward to more of your vlogs❤🇬🇧

Thanks for sharing your trip. I live in New York City but I was sick during the holiday season so I didn't see all the lights. I did hear that it was absolutely mobbed this year at Rockefeller Center, more than usual. A tip of for those who would like to go and avoid the crowds, get there before sunrise and you can see all the pretty lights without the crowds.

[@nissasbookcorner]

i can relate to the family being in different places, i live with my gf and her family in canada and my family is in california so not as far away but still hard to not spend the holidays with everyone together! sending love

[@katarinateslar]

Hey Cari. I don't usually comment on KZbin videos but when I feel like videos are so relatable and inspiring I'd like to leave a comment. I just wanted to say that I recently found your KZbin channel the other day and watcing all your travel videos at first. It has been refreshing and inspiring. I want to start doing solo travelling for myself and experiencing more things by myself. Just experiencing my own company. I’m 27, single and very outside of the circle of wanting to get married or have kids at this stage. Hopefully maybe that day will come but it's not for me right now. I’m wanting to experience more in my life. Thank you for your videos as they really show that people similiar in my position who want to enjoy so much more in life is out there and we need more of this realness online. So much in our society shows you need to do this and this and follow what other people have but I have been taught by my parents and brother which I'm so lucky to have that’s it’s okay to be different and outside the circle. I just watched one of your older q&a videos. This one here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/bJ20aYhueb2hkLMsi=H9Y8tsUl7u7gApTC. The part where you answer about having kids & the idea of marriage etc is refreshing to hear. I’m so happy that women out there who choose not having kids, do want them or other situations needs to be understood. So much is misunderstood about how we live by that. We decide what we want and it should be okay and respected. I’m so glad I have found your channel and other social media platforms. I'm now going through your other videos and it's just so peaceful to watch. You bring out the realness in videos. It would be so wonderful to find friends like you and others that I follow who inspire me because you see this kind of content on here more than in real life. Which can be quite hard to find. Hope you had a lovely Christmas Cari and here's to more kindness and happiness in our lives 😊

[@josepha133]

I appreciate your content BECAUSE of its long format!

[@nele8282]

A very warm hello from Vienna dear, Cari! I love your "long" videos so much and this one especially because you gave us such a sweet, romantic insight into your family life. You also become a little bit of a child again when you're with your family. Enjoyed your video at the same time as a good coffee on a Sunday afternoon. Finished "Book Lovers" by Emily Henry a few minutes ago, which I'm sure you know. That was a very nice start to the new reading year 2024. You're also a little to blame for the fact that I'm reading more again, because your love of books is so evident in your videos. I wish you a wonderful new year 2024, best wishes, Rainer

Hey Cari, I just loved this video so much ! I’ve been watching your videos for a few years now and I love that you stay true to yourself, choosing what you show on camera based on your wants and needs, which music you put, always following your heart and not only the trends that we see on social media. I wish you the best for this new year, can’t wait to discover your new projects for 2024 ☺️

[@sincerelysheri]

I have never commented before but I saw your IG story wanting some extra love this time. I just finished watching your vlog and once again absolutely loved it. I’m an internet stranger that you don’t know but gosh, I’m so convinced if we knew each other irl we’d be besties. Sending you the happiest birthday love, I’m right behind you (Jan 3) so I can def relate to that new year let’s go attitude (is it a Capricorn thing?) I think you mentioned once before that you’re also a Sag Rising? Do I remember that correctly? And Kurt is Virgo? I’m a sag rising Virgo moon - so probably why I connect so well to your content. You’ve inspired me so much and I absolutely adore your vlogs. I think 2024 could be the year I attempt my own! I’m planning to find your skillshare class on it so I can learn more. Anyways- I am so glad I found you months ago, I feel like I’ve known you for so long already. Every time I see a new vlog pop up I know it’s gonna be a good evening of getting cozy on my sofa to watch. Sending you so much love and abundance for this new year!
