  • hi there~ if you guys have been following me a bit, you know that this summer is sort of an emotional one. My parents finally sold the home I lived in since I was born, and they're moving cross country. I'm spending July and August saying goodbye to my hometown and today, we're saying a special goodbye to the library. Due to ~the world~ it's been nearly 2.5 years since I was able to visit my city's public library and I was so happy to be back. The tour is quiet (duh) but I hope you enjoy - this is mainly for me so I can look back and remember it :') Thanks always and sending love!

    Cari, I think I speak in the name of all of your audience when I say that the thing I like most about your videos, on both channels, is that they are so chill and calming. So don't worry about not making such fast paced videos. Also, your dog is still very cute!

    That library is huuuuge omg
    I like how you can peek into the returned books room. It's so cute!

    Cari your patio is stunning like the perfect place to spend the afternoon and chill or to meditate in the morning while seeing the sunrise ❤️ cute video as always! Btw I just got “in the woods” and “the silent companions” based on your scary stories video. I’m so exited to start them both!

    Hey cariiii so sorry to hear that you're in a funk! Not to be cheesy but you're literally my favourite channels on youtube. You mentioned that you didn't have as much opinions/are more chill but I think that's what makes your channel unique! You also have a great knack for storytelling :) but I understand you'd still want to create what makes you happy and we'll support you on whatever direction you choose to take! :)

    I'm a librarian and I live in Australia, and it's so so lovely to see into other libraries around the world! They're always kinda broadly the same, but different in little, exciting ways. (I'm so impressed by that automatic returns chute!) What a lovely way to revisit your hometown and say goodbye

    The thing I enjoy the most of your book channel is that one really can tell that you LOVE books and you are so passionate about them. To me that is much more important than the pacing or the wittiness.
    Don't be so hard on your self ❤️ We all love the content the way it is

    Carrie, this video really made my heart melt. I am away from home in HK and this video reminds me of my childhood library(which is less fancier than yours) and memories buried there. I really love your both channels and please don’t push yourself too hard. You are already big inspiration for many of us. Xx

Everything that you capture on camera literally turns to gold in my eyes. You are my FAVOURITE booktuber. Your taste is immaculate. I no longer read fantasy since graduating high school but recently i'm getting back to it now bcs i can't resist the urge to get on the hype train bcs of the WAY YOU DESCRIBE THE STORY. That's how impactful you are 🥺💖 when i'm sad or bored or happy i rewatch your videos. I love the way you talk and present yourself through the lens :)) you're doing such an excellent job lovely. 💖💝💕

  • @katjaf6506
    @katjaf6506 3 года назад

    Okay I feel like a very big compliment is due. I love your channel both the main one and the book channel. You're the person that got me back into reading because whenever you talked about the books you read i felt like you were sharing a very special experience with us (and your taste is great. I have picked up a lot of books I never would've read if you hadn't recommended them). Whenever I have a stressful day or feel down I'll watch one of your videos bc as you said you are very chill (but also hilarious I might add). Anyway I geeked out a lot about this video, since I'm studying library science so I was checking all the details of your library and it was a lot of fun for me!

  • @lauf22

  • @KaytiBurt
    @KaytiBurt 3 года назад

    I'm glad you're starting to feel better about your content after a month of feeling iffy. Your channel is one of the places I have found the most comfort during the past year and especially month, and I don't think that is in spite of your "funk." I think your willingness to stay in a mood or emotion in your videos, and to be able to communicate that through images and soundtrack and your honest reflection, is one of the things I appreciate most about your work, and a skill and instinct that sets your creativity apart from the kinds of quick-witted, fast-paced creators you were comparing yourself to. While watching this video, I started missing some of the libraries that have been my home, and it made me emotional. I felt waves of both sadness and gratitude for those places, and that feeling that comes with the heavy recognition of time having passed. (I wish we had a word for this in English.) You gave me the space and inspiration to recognize and feel these things. So, thank you!

    Cari your childhood home is stunning! (Yes just from the little glimpses i've seen in these home vlogs lol) That backyard? The lemon tree? The little bookshelf where the rainbow books used to be? That room with the circle window that reflects the sunset (that you showed a pic of in your recent vid on your main channel)? I wish I could buy it, it's such a dream home 😍
    Also: I'm a lowkey nosey person but I'm not the type to pry into a youtubers life outside of what is shown to me via youtube. So these little glimpses into your childhood is so interesting to me and not at all boring. I personally love these chill videos. Thank you so much for sharing, I was thrilled by the library tour 💖

    I honestly enjoy every single one of your videos no matter the content because, whether the pacing is slow or your day is filled with tons of stuff to record, for me it's your personality that truly entertains me. You just seem so laid back and sweet and spunky and someone I'd 100% want to be friends with. We share a lot of common interests. Also, I'm a fellow SoCal girl... born and raised in San Diego, closer to downtown in Mira Mesa but I was all over the place with my friends. I practically lived on the La Jolla and Torrey Pines beaches. Carlsbad is still one of my favorite towns and I spent tons of time driving up there, as well as Oceanside and Encinitas. Amazing communities. OMG I want to move back there so bad. But yeah, just keep doing what you're doing with your videos. I'll always watch them no matter what :)

    I enjoyed this video, and I do think you're being hard on yourself. I hope you feel better and have more fun doing the next one though.
    Your local library is nice, and I think doing a tour was a neat idea during your trip! I recently went to the library here when they newly reopened after covid-19, but it wasn't the same. They were still taking considerable precautions so there was no seating anywhere in the building. I understand the reasoning, I suppose, but it made a place where I often took comfort from seem very inhospitable.
    Have a good rest of your trip!

    I can relate to this feeling of when you see a lot of things changing and disappearing in the neighborhood you've grown.
    Personally I get very emotional and melancholic when you vividly remember the look, the smell, the feeling you had being in said building/place and have so many memories and than it's gone, it's a bittersweet feeling but I have to remember myself that at least I got to experience and witness all the changes for better or for worse.. :)
    It's so cool that you filmed your library and now you have it sealed in a video I can imagine filming all the shots of little corners where you studied and spent so much time mean a lot more to you, wish I got to do that with my own childhood library, I might just do that.. but secretly film shhh.. :)
    please Carry I love you and your content just the way it is, infact precisely because of the way it is, everything has become so fast paced these days that you're content is like a breath of fresh air, you inspire me!

    This made me miss my university library so much. The library in my hometown is much smaller, but your library reminds me a lot of all the hours I spent studying organic chemistry in college. Weirdly I miss those days haha.

    I loved this vlog and your library. Mine doesn't have a cafe :'( I would stay all day there. I love your channel because you're calm and peaceful, I don't like loud and intense youtubers/people hahaha. Keep going! :)

    Oh Cari! You’re too hard on yourself! I personally loved the last 2 videos. Getting to see all the books you’ve read. I’m a library reader and I wish I could take people to my library and brag about all the books I’ve read.
