  • The Cold Days of Midwinter: Hi friends! In today's video, I give you a glimpse into my daily life during midwinter in Northern Europe. Starting the year with a chilly -20°C, it's so cold, but incredibly beautiful. As the final weeks of my thesis writing approach, stress is in the air. To counter this, I'm looking for mindful activities to soothe my racing mind. I'm making a hearty soup to nourish my body and baking easy puff pastry apple rings. Enjoy!

    Hi,
    I just discovered your channel recently and I am so happy 😊 that I did! I felt so relaxed and calm watching your Vlog, other Vlogs too, and I really appreciate and admire the creative projects you do especially the adorable and whimsical book library. You have an artist's hand, are very creative and talented. The music used is so beautiful and lovely too.
    I look forward to watching your next Vlog 🙂👍.
    Take Care,

    Pieniä ihmeitä! Pienet ilot✨️ ... Se mitä näin sinulta on mahtavaa! Kuinka herkullinen, kuinka siro, kuin satu! Rakastan Suomea, rakastan kulttuuria. Rakastan suomalaisia. RUclips toi sinut luokseni eilen. Valitettavasti en puhu kieliä, olen täällä vain visuaalisesti. mutta pidin näkemästäni! Kuten sama, ystävällinen halaus menee! Olin iloinen nähdessäni mitä näytit! Kiitos paljon! Onnea yksityiselämässäsi ja kauniilla RUclips-elokuvakanavallasi! Terveisiä Unkarista, Paul 👋🙂🌷

If I get closer to your nation in your films, then that's one more reason for me to be here! Life must be kept open so that at any time, anything and anyone good or beautiful can enter it.

While it's not as cold here, it is snowing and beautiful. Thank you for a wonderfully cozy and beautiful video to enjoy on my morning off! Good luck with your thesis!

    Try to skip the egg in your recipes. It's a hen's PERIOD. So much suffering & death behind that 1 egg! I'm sure you wouldn't want to be put in a cage for all your life so that they take your period. So heartless, so disgusting! Skip the egg!

      @@idyllineverydaylife You haven't really upset me, I've seen much worse. But once you decide to become an influencer, you have a LOT of responsibility with what you show online. You seem like a good person, you are also very creative, I really enjoy the videos, but if I can skip the egg, so can you. ;)
