The messages at the end caught me delightfully by surprise: we can enjoy pretty videos, romanticise life, AND acknowledge the unromantic messiness of much of it, because that's just how real life is. After a rough week, that (and the message after it) is exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you for sharing your unabashed joy.
I'm in tears after the message in the end. And I didn't feel like I was going to be, but somehow saying nice things even to yourself can make you emotional. I hope I remember to be good to myself as well as others.
Please please make another video like this this summer! I watch this one again and again to get the summer vibes, I was a little sad that all your summer videos this year were “pretending it’s fall when it’s summer” :( But I love this video so much 🌊☀️🏝️
I know on Instagram you mentioned that you always feel nervous that we won’t like a video when you upload it, but I swear you have nothing to worry about!!!! Your videos are honestly so refreshing and magical!! Love the new camera by the way🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
I feel like a student giving a presentation to a class of a hundred thousand of my peers every time I upload 🙈💗 Thank you so much for the love and support and reminder! 💕
Yes to this!! I love absolutely every one of your videos, Desi, and never have a doubt in my mind that I will love the next one I see. This may feel like added pressure...lol...but really it's because I have grown to appreciate you as a person that feels almost like a friend. You have a talent for putting together a beautiful story about your life that is incredibly inspiring. I'm very grateful for you and the work you do here on RUclips.
@@DarlingDesi i love all of your videos, and I somehow like you more with every new video I watch !! thank you so much for these videos Desi, I’m so glad I found you
@@EveryFurtherMile YES!!! I love what you said about her being like a friend!! I feel like she is honestly one of my best friends!!! She’s the best at making people feel right at home on her channel!!
Did anyone else get a little tingle down their spine when they read “stay tuned for autumn content coming soon”? Gosh! Desi MADE my Autumn last year and I can’t wait for what she has in store next! 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
@@geenagr in Australia it’s spring from September to November, then summer afterwards. Nothing make’s sense when holidays like Halloween and Christmas roll by
You and Jared dancing on the front porch it reminds me of that scene in Little Women when Jo and Laurie are dancing outside the ball trying not to be scene through the windows
The ending message made me laugh and then burst into tears. Thank you for the positive affirmations. This is a really rough time for me and my anxiety and you really struck a chord for me. I’m so glad you enjoyed your time! Keep making these videos as long as they make you happy!
Idk how I just found you this year, I’m binge watching ALL your videos! I want to say, THANK YOU!!! Seeing how you live your daily life and how you appreciate the small moments in life gives me so much guidance as I struggle thru mental health myself, guidance to enjoy the little things. I too love all the things you love, books, spring, flowy dresses, nature, reading outdoors, just everything! I truly see now this is indeed a place for kindred spirits and I’m so blessed to have found you when I needed this community the most! Sending love and hugs from SoCal! 💕💕💕
Desi, your videos are like no one else's. In an age of faster, faster, faster, you capture peace and quietude, relaxation and the magic of life in videos. You are so gifted and watching your videos floods me with peace and serenity every single time. Thank you so much for that
I truly love how you romanticize the seasons. I get stuck in the daily routine of life and often forget to do something enjoyable with my family or for myself. You are such an inspiration Desi!
Im living in Brazil, and is was search for a vídeo about routines for me improve my english, especific days in the cottage on the beach, and i found your vídeo. Im very content of have found you, i was search for a vídeo for learn english, but i out with my mind tranquility and full of love for live, thanks for me convey this.
I’m reading ‘Anne’s House of Dreams’ at the moment and the vibes of this video reminded me of that. I’ve been kind of lost lately and this year has been a rollercoaster but this video made me smile. It was lovely
I haven‘t read „Anne‘s house of dreams“ in a while, but I think I am gonna pick it up today! Thanks for reminding me of the wonderful vibes the book has:) I hope your rollercoaster goes up, soon. Take care
14:54, Desi, I don't know what to say... living a life of depression for me currently struggling and just being down wondering where I want to go with my Life, what I want to do, and just figuring thing's out, I always come to your Videos because they make me feel so comforted and when you post words like this, and make relaxing videos these are my favourites from you, like aesthetic visuals to make you feel good about yourself! Please do more like this, it makes me and others feel good about themselves and just take time out for such a peaceful video and watching these makes you feel more gratitude. xxx
this video is the inspiration for my summer this year ☀️ ever since i watched this video when it first came out last summer, i've repeated those affirmations to myself every morning throughout the year, and, desi, you have no idea how much they have helped me on the tough days when i can hardly get out of bed! thank you, kindred spirit 🫶🏼
I dont live in a beach cottage, but I do live 5 minutes away from the beach and its honestly so wonderful here even in winter- even snow on the sand is pretty
Desi, you have absolutely no reason to feel nervous when uploading. I think I’m speaking for all of us when I tell you that your videos are breaths of fresh air ♥️ sunshine in video form. You’re wonderful, and so are your videos. Always ♥️☀️
I actually really love the fact you put that disclaimer at the end of the video to state this isn't the norm for you and how your mornings can be just as unproductive or chaotic as everyone elses
I'm only seven minutes in, but I'm overjoyed for you! I'm so happy you had such a wonderful vacation! It truly looks like a dream! I hope you can go back one day. All of your videos bring me a sense of calm and serenity because you give off the most wonderful vibes, but this video brought me joy because it brought YOU joy! Thank you for sharing a little piece of yourself with all of us! 💖
Seeing Desi hearing the cicadas,collecting sea shells and walking into the market with wet hair 😍 its literally me during summer Lots of love from Greece !
DESI!!! 😭 this was absolutely gorgeous, pure magic! I’m so happy and you Jared got to have such a special vacation this summer. And I loved your text slides at the end too, the affirmations made me 🥺 you’re such a bright spot in the world Desi, and I’m so grateful to you for sharing your content and your life, the ups and the downs. So so much love to you!!! 💜
So dreamy! Makes me want to live in a beach house surrounded by the song of seagulls and the breeze of the ocean 💕 Oh wait... I almost do! It`s just colder 😅
Hi Desi! I promise you don't have to worry about us liking your videos, we will always like them! It is your essence, your contagious joy, your love for beautiful and small things and your honesty that we like the most about you, and that is conveyed by you being who you are 🥰
We moved to an East coast beach last year & if anyone wonders if living at the beach makes it lose any of it's magic...it does not😊 So glad you had a beautiful time. Ps. Loved seeing you all play cards & dance..what a special interaction you all have.
The end message is so important, thanks for the honesty. So many people get so sad seeing these videos where everything is perfect and they forget they are the highlights of the best moments. Glad you enjoyed your trip!! x
That message at the end, got me right in the heart. I wasn’t ready for that and yet it was the exact reminder I needed at the right time that perhaps I am enough. Love to all of you 💕 these videos breath so much life into me
Dear Desi, I want to thank you for reminding me of some of my happiest childhood memories, on the beaches in the Carolina's on vacation with my family. This video is precious, as are you and Jared, and thank you so much for sharing these special moments in your life with me and all of us. You truly are a Darling. :)
I almost cried at the end because of your sweet and thoughtful messages at the end! This video was so uplifting and inspiring. I’m glad you both got to rest and recharge at such a beautiful and restful place 😊💜🌊
The amount of joy and replenishment i get from consuming your content is unbelievably magical. I am so grateful for you and your channel, as well as being blessed with autumnal content soon!!
I love the paragraph in the end. It allows us the audience to know you aren't perfect and are only human with human problems like us. Allowing us to feel relatable to you and wanting us to come back for more of your videos. You are amazing and I can't thank you enough for truly inspiring us to go out and experience the world. To allow us to see another world as well just in case some of us are not fortunate to go experience it ourselves. Thank you again Desi for being your true self and allowing us to join you on your special moments you experience.
This was beautiful as always, but the last bit of it, the reminder and the affirmations, added even more beauty, made it feel so whole and complete and honest. Thank you for this video. You are incredibly talented! Hope you have an amazing day (and looking forward to the autumn content) 💙🦋🌾🫖
Thank you so much for posting this! My husband and I just moved to Wilmington from Pennsylvania. All the moving stuff (documents, car, storage pods, Uhaul, etc.) has been so stressful that he frequently reminds me to log out of work and enjoy the beach. I'm a reporter and writer. I had a week full of murders and deadly car crashes. Then I found out three people I love were hospitalized. It hit me so hard. I logged out and into RUclips to find your beautiful aesthetically pleasing video. I got less than 10 seconds in and remembered, "life is short, so is summer, I should go to the beach." One book later (I just read True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle for the first time), a bag of shells, a bicycle ride, a picnic, kite flying, watching the surfers, swimming, chatting with the fisherman (Kure beach pier) and I felt better. I came home and have watched a little bit of this over a few days (literally 30 seconds, then blast music or an audiobook while I unpack, write, or head back to the beach). It puts me in such a better mental place. Thank you. I hope you loved Wilmington, thanks for reminding me why I moved here
Such a beautiful video! Where the Crawdads Sing is a new favorite for me as well. When my daughter was little, she would often say the sun is sizzling when the cicadas make noise. It made sense. Lol! They love the heat of the sun. What a beautiful trip to capture in such a stunning way!
Ahhh it’s finally here!! I was looking at your IG stories today and so sorry it took you long to upload the video. But know that I suuuuper duper love it!! I’m usually not a summer person (i prefer autumn 😁) but seeing the joy in your face and how you make the most out of the season makes me incredibly happy! It definitely reminded me of The Summer I Turned Pretty! I watched it earlier in July and I’m going to binge-watch it again 😊 I wonder if you had the chance to see them filming for S2? Hoho. Anyway, have a good rest now Desi. I really appreciate you and your videos! 💕
I think we almost did see them! One of the beaches we went to had signs along the road saying to "expect delays due to filming" the next day...and it was close to where some of the scenes from S1 were filmed. It seems we may have missed them by a day! 😅
Aww Charizze thank you for following along on my insta stories! 😄 I also prefer Autumn but I really have found a kinship with each of the seasons this year and I’m so happy about that 💗 We never actually saw them filming but some of the roads were closed/had delays some of the days because they were filming nearby! 😍
Desi, I usually click on your videos the instant they download but I was right in the middle of a medical crisis with my mom and I wanted to wait until I had the time to enjoy it. When I finally had a moment to sit and watch, I can’t tell you how much peace and joy your video brought to me when I needed it the most. I was in tears by the end because it was such a beautiful, honest representation of what a sweet, romantic soul that you have and that you so unselfishly share with the rest of us. You have a gift Desi, never stop being yourself. I am SO grateful that I found your channel! Btw, gorgeous cinema photography with the new camera and drone camera, WOW! You are really honing your craft and developing a huge talent Desi, well done!
Where The Crawdads Sing was such a magical book. I loved watching you embrace the Kya inside you. I feel like a part of her lives in all of us. We just have to feel her and embrace those special moments when she comes out in all of us.
The affirmations got me emotional. 💛 Thank you for being such a beautiful light to this world. 🙏🏼 You are so genuine and real, and I absolutely adore all of your content. You help me to romanticize my life by finding joy in the “little” things, that really are the BIG, most beautiful things. 💛💛
thank you - just thank you for sharing these moments. It brings to mind a time when I was young and madly in love and was living a beautiful life. Life has changed since then, and though it is not as beautiful as it once was, I treasure the memories of a life that I was and still am truly blessed with. Thank you for sharing these lovely moments with all of us - have a safe trip home can't wait for the autumn season!
You may acknowledge your life may not be perfect and you make aesthetic vlogs because it makes you happy, but the fact that you can do that makes your life beyond anything I could ever wish for.
Idk why...but this whole video made me emotional and then you hit me with the affirmations? You have done it again 💜💜 you made me cry, smile, and to see the magic in the world even when its too foggy at times to see.
As a NC native, I am so glad you enjoyed our beaches! They tend to be less touristy (except for Wilmington, of course!), so you are able to actually enjoy the beach for, well, the beach!! If you decide to come back to visit NC again, consider our mountains. They are breath taking as well! We are truly blessed here to have access to so many different settings and types of nature that is relatively easily accessible.
So I'm old enough to be your mother, but can I just say you're an inspiring young woman. I've been watching your videos taking book recommendations and a few decorating tips. We don't have to be perfect. No one expects you to be perfect or have a perfect video. You are doing wonderful love the bloopers LOL you're very real and for that reason we all love you. I love the message at the end and even though I've got a few years on you I think we all (no matter how old or young) need to remember that we are enough. Thank you and you look absolutely beautiful. 💚
Yep that ending made my cry and I still am to be honest. Thank you for such a beautiful video and for the beautiful message at the end. I love you desi!
Your videos are truly a source of confort for me, thank you so much for showing us that joy can be found in every moment of our days, even the most common and simplest ones. This past weeks have been really stressful for me, I'm back at my parent's for the summer, and while I had longed for this summer so long during the year, I am finding myself burried under the family problems. I needed someone to remind me that sparkles can still be found, and that I can look for solace in the little things. Thank you again for the positivity you bring in our lives.
This video was such a treasure today. Some months ago, my husband and I moved temporarily to a very warm and beachy place. For the first while it was a dream, but after the same thing each and every day I've found it hard to get excited about getting outside and enjoying it. This helped me reignite that little flame and get excited for summer again while it lasts. (absolutely cannot WAIT for the autumn content though!)
Thank you for existing Desi, you inspire me a lot with your authenticity, kindness and gratefulness for the little things around us. By the way you really remind me of Anne of Green Gables! Lots of love from Spain
I love you so much! Thank you for the message at the end of the video, it almost made me cry. I don't know how to explain what I feel when I watch your videos, but I know that it saves me every time. I am from Brazil and since I found your channel I've been happier. Today I caught myself thinking about when we get older, I will still be here, watching your channel, like an old friend. Thank you for making my life brighter. Even though we don't know each other, you're my kindred spirit. I will never forget you.
Loved the messages at the end, particularly the reminder how life doesn't always have to look perfect all the time. I don't know why but it got me feeling emotional in a happy way, I really appreicate you mentioning that thank you, and your affirmations were just lovely too :) This video brightened my day. Thank You xXx
Fall Desi has always been my favorite, but I am living for Summer Beach Vacay Desi! Your happiness was palpable in this video-the content is pure summer bliss and magic. The message at the end also made me teary eyed. Thank you for the gentle reminder and for a beautiful start to the week! ☀️
Thank you for uploading. I have hard days and seeing your videos make me feel so much better and today I had a doctors appointment and have been riddled with anxiety but this video really helped a lot. So thank you. ❤️
The way you put energy and color to the seasons and life is very inspiring. Me and my little brother Daniel just found your channel and have found home in some ways. Thank you for this astounding channel
Thank you for starting my Monday morning off with such a beautiful piece of art. Loved this! I also appreciate your addition at the end. It’s so easy to fall into the “my life isn’t this beautiful “ or “ I am not doing enough because I’m doing dishes at 6am instead of …” Thank you for showing the beauty of life and providing a safe, keeping it real vibe as well. You are a gift Desi! Thank you 🌻🌻
Excellent adding of the disclaimer at the end. It goes a long way honestly. Yes we love the aesthetic vibe to life, but it’s not real most of the time. So thanks for being real
I genuinely love Desi's content. I don't really follow anyone on social media or youtube but I get excited when she makes a new video. The blurb in the end of this video about making sure that everyone realizes this is NOT what her typical day looks like was so special. It's easy to see people's lives in beautiful videos and think that our lives don't compare and be unhappy. But her reminder that this is a beautiful video and not her typical day, and that that's okay is so important!! 💞💞💞💞💞
Beautiful. Just beautiful. There are very few channels I watch the way I watch yours... avid, captured, and engaged with every minute. I never play your videos as background noise or something just to listen to.... I absolutely love every one, and I truly believe that we are all so lucky to be able to watch and support you as a creator 💙💛🤍
This was a perfect video to watch this morning especially since I had an anxiety attack last night. This was so calming and peaceful to watch and my mind and body needed it. Thank you for this Desi! :)
Hey Desi, I just wanted to say I’m so thankful to have found you and your beautiful and happy corner of the internet. From someone who struggles with depression and anxiety your videos help make those hard days much sweeter and much more relaxing(I’m sure I’m not the only one). So thank you for being so fun but also so real :)
I always feel safe when I’m at the beach. Silently reading a book wile the waves crash Is a dream come true. Thank you for always making wonderful videos! You inspire me to do whatever i can to do what I want to do to make my life feel better. Thanks! 🌊💙
almost started crying in the end, its so easy to forget whats really matters in life, to forget everything i schould be grateful for. You made me remeber, thank you
Wow, the messages at the end made me tear up. Thank you for being genuine and for reminding everyone that no one is perfect, even though so many people try so hard these days to pretend online that they are. I’m glad you had such a nice trip!
I loved this! I always love your videos but this feels somehow very real and lovely, seeing you without makeup and with wet hair, idk. It’s lovely. I never think you’re not real but this one just felt extra good if that makes sense.
You are by far my favourite content creator and you always make me so happy. watching your videos is pure serotonin for me. Thank you forever for this type of happiness you give me💗💖
I already saw the video when you uploaded it a few hours ago but I’m glad you finally got it figured out. And I’m definitely watching it again right now haha. It looks so cinematic and beautiful. Also I just want to say I’m not gonna lie, I’ve been waiting for your next video because it definitely gives me a boost of inspirational energy that I always love and need. So thanks for all the beautiful vibes Desi. I hope to make videos like these myself. Lots of love. - Brandy 🤗💙✨
Aww Brandy 🥹🫶🏻 Thank you so much for coming back and watching after having watched the first upload 💗 I’ll be trying to get videos up more often as my health has been improving a bit. I also have so many fall video ideas, so I’m going to try to film as many of them as I can! 🥰
What a beautiful beach. The water on the east is so warm. I’m surprised the beach wasn’t full. Your so lucky to have this trip. Enjoy to the fullest. Love you California Joanna
This video is 10/10 Amazing! I don't want to say it's the best of yours because I don't want to imply your other videos aren't so great as well. But from the exact balance of scenery, activity, and voiceover to the heartfelt statements at the end, I was transported on a mini beach vacation at the time I needed it most. (Last night, after a really hard parenting day, I cried to my husband that it's so hard to romanticize my life with so little time to myself.) Thank you!
You honestly just made my whole day just by posting this beautiful video. I wish i had a front porch so i could read my book there, but i have to wait for my next vacation in Greece. I absolutely love your idea of spending time in the nature, enjoying the sounds of the birds and the wind going through the trees. Thank you for this video, it was wonderful!!!💗💗💗
I have goosebumps after this “repeat after me” part, I swear 🥺🥺🥺 I don’t know why, but after this I close my eyes, take a deep breath and feel 100% happier after open my eyes again! Thank you~~
The messages at the end caught me delightfully by surprise: we can enjoy pretty videos, romanticise life, AND acknowledge the unromantic messiness of much of it, because that's just how real life is. After a rough week, that (and the message after it) is exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you for sharing your unabashed joy.
I often think this too! Life is always gonna be life, so what's wrong with putting some energy in making it a bit more enjoyable for us?
I'm in tears after the message in the end. And I didn't feel like I was going to be, but somehow saying nice things even to yourself can make you emotional. I hope I remember to be good to myself as well as others.
made me tear up a little
Please please make another video like this this summer! I watch this one again and again to get the summer vibes, I was a little sad that all your summer videos this year were “pretending it’s fall when it’s summer” :(
But I love this video so much 🌊☀️🏝️

Gosh! Desi MADE my Autumn last year and I can’t wait for what she has in store next! 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
I felt sadness. We don't get autumn weather until October here in Greece. Until then I'll be baking in this heat. Sigh
@@geenagr lol I live in Australia so imma just pretend its autumn here too haha

I love that you always mention that not all mornings/life in general is as aesthetic, but I do feel extremely calm when watching your videos.
I ABSOLUTELY ADORE YOUR VIDEOS, THEY ALWAYS BRING ME JOY, THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR CHARING THIS! ❤️
AHH THANK YOU FILIPPA 💗💗💗

The amount of joy and replenishment i get from consuming your content is unbelievably magical. I am so grateful for you and your channel, as well as being blessed with autumnal content soon!!
I love the paragraph in the end. It allows us the audience to know you aren't perfect and are only human with human problems like us. Allowing us to feel relatable to you and wanting us to come back for more of your videos. You are amazing and I can't thank you enough for truly inspiring us to go out and experience the world. To allow us to see another world as well just in case some of us are not fortunate to go experience it ourselves.
Thank you again Desi for being your true self and allowing us to join you on your special moments you experience.
You make me smile, thank you
Desi, This was so beautiful ! That is my dream house, a little cottage by the sea. Thank you for taking us with you !
This was beautiful as always, but the last bit of it, the reminder and the affirmations, added even more beauty, made it feel so whole and complete and honest. Thank you for this video. You are incredibly talented! Hope you have an amazing day (and looking forward to the autumn content) 💙🦋🌾🫖
Thank you so much for posting this! My husband and I just moved to Wilmington from Pennsylvania. All the moving stuff (documents, car, storage pods, Uhaul, etc.) has been so stressful that he frequently reminds me to log out of work and enjoy the beach. I'm a reporter and writer. I had a week full of murders and deadly car crashes. Then I found out three people I love were hospitalized. It hit me so hard. I logged out and into RUclips to find your beautiful aesthetically pleasing video. I got less than 10 seconds in and remembered, "life is short, so is summer, I should go to the beach." One book later (I just read True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle for the first time), a bag of shells, a bicycle ride, a picnic, kite flying, watching the surfers, swimming, chatting with the fisherman (Kure beach pier) and I felt better. I came home and have watched a little bit of this over a few days (literally 30 seconds, then blast music or an audiobook while I unpack, write, or head back to the beach). It puts me in such a better mental place. Thank you. I hope you loved Wilmington, thanks for reminding me why I moved here
Such a beautiful video! Where the Crawdads Sing is a new favorite for me as well. When my daughter was little, she would often say the sun is sizzling when the cicadas make noise. It made sense. Lol! They love the heat of the sun. What a beautiful trip to capture in such a stunning way!
Seeing you romanticize my home state makes me feel so honored to live here. I love our coastline so much. Thank you for sharing it in this way!
What state is it?
Ahhh it’s finally here!! I was looking at your IG stories today and so sorry it took you long to upload the video. But know that I suuuuper duper love it!! I’m usually not a summer person (i prefer autumn 😁) but seeing the joy in your face and how you make the most out of the season makes me incredibly happy! It definitely reminded me of The Summer I Turned Pretty! I watched it earlier in July and I’m going to binge-watch it again 😊 I wonder if you had the chance to see them filming for S2? Hoho. Anyway, have a good rest now Desi. I really appreciate you and your videos! 💕
I think we almost did see them! One of the beaches we went to had signs along the road saying to "expect delays due to filming" the next day...and it was close to where some of the scenes from S1 were filmed. It seems we may have missed them by a day! 😅
Aww Charizze thank you for following along on my insta stories! 😄 I also prefer Autumn but I really have found a kinship with each of the seasons this year and I’m so happy about that 💗 We never actually saw them filming but some of the roads were closed/had delays some of the days because they were filming nearby! 😍
Desi, I usually click on your videos the instant they download but I was right in the middle of a medical crisis with my mom and I wanted to wait until I had the time to enjoy it. When I finally had a moment to sit and watch, I can’t tell you how much peace and joy your video brought to me when I needed it the most. I was in tears by the end because it was such a beautiful, honest representation of what a sweet, romantic soul that you have and that you so unselfishly share with the rest of us. You have a gift Desi, never stop being yourself. I am SO grateful that I found your channel!
Btw, gorgeous cinema photography with the new camera and drone camera, WOW! You are really honing your craft and developing a huge talent Desi, well done!
Oh my heart! The adorable last few moments of you and Jared playing and laughing on the porch with that sweet music - perfect!
I’m struggling a lot mentally lately but for some reason, watching your videos makes me feel so calm and at peace. I love them ❤️
Darling Desi you are the embodiment of joy and a symbol of peace, please don’t change your ways.🌸🍀
Where The Crawdads Sing was such a magical book. I loved watching you embrace the Kya inside you. I feel like a part of her lives in all of us. We just have to feel her and embrace those special moments when she comes out in all of us.
Woah, that ending just made me cry out of nowhere. Thank you for this content and ending reminder. 💖 You are an artist.
The affirmations got me emotional. 💛 Thank you for being such a beautiful light to this world. 🙏🏼 You are so genuine and real, and I absolutely adore all of your content. You help me to romanticize my life by finding joy in the “little” things, that really are the BIG, most beautiful things. 💛💛
thank you - just thank you for sharing these moments. It brings to mind a time when I was young and madly in love and was living a beautiful life. Life has changed since then, and though it is not as beautiful as it once was, I treasure the memories of a life that I was and still am truly blessed with. Thank you for sharing these lovely moments with all of us - have a safe trip home can't wait for the autumn season!
You may acknowledge your life may not be perfect and you make aesthetic vlogs because it makes you happy, but the fact that you can do that makes your life beyond anything I could ever wish for.
Idk why...but this whole video made me emotional and then you hit me with the affirmations? You have done it again 💜💜 you made me cry, smile, and to see the magic in the world even when its too foggy at times to see.
That's exctaly why I love your channel. You are so genuine and sincere, I know you are the real artist and the real person.
Hi from England Desi! Oh my what a beautiful video that was ❤️ it really warmed my heart, I loved it 😃
As a NC native, I am so glad you enjoyed our beaches! They tend to be less touristy (except for Wilmington, of course!), so you are able to actually enjoy the beach for, well, the beach!! If you decide to come back to visit NC again, consider our mountains. They are breath taking as well! We are truly blessed here to have access to so many different settings and types of nature that is relatively easily accessible.
I love your coastal grandmother aesthetic, by the way! You’re definitely the main character 🌼🌊☀️🐚👒
It just really was the vibe this summer! ☀️🌊🫶🏻 I’ve had so much fun with it! 🥰
So I'm old enough to be your mother, but can I just say you're an inspiring young woman. I've been watching your videos taking book recommendations and a few decorating tips. We don't have to be perfect. No one expects you to be perfect or have a perfect video. You are doing wonderful love the bloopers LOL you're very real and for that reason we all love you. I love the message at the end and even though I've got a few years on you I think we all (no matter how old or young) need to remember that we are enough. Thank you and you look absolutely beautiful.
💚
Yep that ending made my cry and I still am to be honest. Thank you for such a beautiful video and for the beautiful message at the end. I love you desi!
Your videos are truly a source of confort for me, thank you so much for showing us that joy can be found in every moment of our days, even the most common and simplest ones. This past weeks have been really stressful for me, I'm back at my parent's for the summer, and while I had longed for this summer so long during the year, I am finding myself burried under the family problems. I needed someone to remind me that sparkles can still be found, and that I can look for solace in the little things. Thank you again for the positivity you bring in our lives.
This video was such a treasure today. Some months ago, my husband and I moved temporarily to a very warm and beachy place. For the first while it was a dream, but after the same thing each and every day I've found it hard to get excited about getting outside and enjoying it. This helped me reignite that little flame and get excited for summer again while it lasts. (absolutely cannot WAIT for the autumn content though!)
Thank you for existing Desi, you inspire me a lot with your authenticity, kindness and gratefulness for the little things around us. By the way you really remind me of Anne of Green Gables! Lots of love from Spain
I love you so much! Thank you for the message at the end of the video, it almost made me cry. I don't know how to explain what I feel when I watch your videos, but I know that it saves me every time.
I am from Brazil and since I found your channel I've been happier.
Today I caught myself thinking about when we get older, I will still be here, watching your channel, like an old friend.
Thank you for making my life brighter. Even though we don't know each other, you're my kindred spirit.
I will never forget you.
Loved the messages at the end, particularly the reminder how life doesn't always have to look perfect all the time. I don't know why but it got me feeling emotional in a happy way, I really appreicate you mentioning that thank you, and your affirmations were just lovely too :) This video brightened my day. Thank You xXx
Fall Desi has always been my favorite, but I am living for Summer Beach Vacay Desi! Your happiness was palpable in this video-the content is pure summer bliss and magic. The message at the end also made me teary eyed. Thank you for the gentle reminder and for a beautiful start to the week! ☀️
Just beautiful!!! I can't wait for the Fall and Winter content. My favorite seasons. 😍
the note and affirmations at the end brought tears to my eyes. thank u for being such a light & inspiring me to see the beauty in the world :)
The ending truly made me cry. I needed that SO much. Thank you Queen 💖
Thank you for uploading. I have hard days and seeing your videos make me feel so much better and today I had a doctors appointment and have been riddled with anxiety but this video really helped a lot. So thank you. ❤️
The way you put energy and color to the seasons and life is very inspiring. Me and my little brother Daniel just found your channel and have found home in some ways. Thank you for this astounding channel
Where the crawdads sing is such a good book!
Thank you for starting my Monday morning off with such a beautiful piece of art. Loved this! I also appreciate your addition at the end. It’s so easy to fall into the “my life isn’t this beautiful “ or “ I am not doing enough because I’m doing dishes at 6am instead of …” Thank you for showing the beauty of life and providing a safe, keeping it real vibe as well. You are a gift Desi! Thank you 🌻🌻
Your note at the end about not being perfect was perfect and made the whole video 💜
Blessings on you, friend
Excellent adding of the disclaimer at the end. It goes a long way honestly. Yes we love the aesthetic vibe to life, but it’s not real most of the time. So thanks for being real
I genuinely love Desi's content. I don't really follow anyone on social media or youtube but I get excited when she makes a new video. The blurb in the end of this video about making sure that everyone realizes this is NOT what her typical day looks like was so special. It's easy to see people's lives in beautiful videos and think that our lives don't compare and be unhappy. But her reminder that this is a beautiful video and not her typical day, and that that's okay is so important!! 💞💞💞💞💞
Beautiful. Just beautiful. There are very few channels I watch the way I watch yours... avid, captured, and engaged with every minute. I never play your videos as background noise or something just to listen to.... I absolutely love every one, and I truly believe that we are all so lucky to be able to watch and support you as a creator 💙💛🤍
Love the text at the end of the video. Thanks for the pretty dreamy vibe.
I’m so glad you liked that part 💗☺️ Thank you so much for watching!
This was a perfect video to watch this morning especially since I had an anxiety attack last night. This was so calming and peaceful to watch and my mind and body needed it. Thank you for this Desi! :)
Hey Desi,
I just wanted to say I’m so thankful to have found you and your beautiful and happy corner of the internet. From someone who struggles with depression and anxiety your videos help make those hard days much sweeter and much more relaxing(I’m sure I’m not the only one). So thank you for being so fun but also so real :)
Every time I watched your videos, you kind of remind me that it is okay to be me. Which is something I need to be reminded quite often. Thank you! 🧚
You can see the love he has for you in this video by how he captures you... it's perfect! 😍
I always feel safe when I’m at the beach. Silently reading a book wile the waves crash Is a dream come true. Thank you for always making wonderful videos! You inspire me to do whatever i can to do what I want to do to make my life feel better. Thanks! 🌊💙
Love this!! Thank you!
this video was so cheerful and beautiful it brought happy tears to my eyes. desi truly is a magical human being and it warms my heart
almost started crying in the end, its so easy to forget whats really matters in life, to forget everything i schould be grateful for. You made me remeber, thank you
Oh, i LOVE to hear the cicadas too.🤗 So summery.
Wow, the messages at the end made me tear up. Thank you for being genuine and for reminding everyone that no one is perfect, even though so many people try so hard these days to pretend online that they are. I’m glad you had such a nice trip!
I teared up at the end. Your videos are so beautiful and never fail to make my day. Thank you ❤️
I loved this! I always love your videos but this feels somehow very real and lovely, seeing you without makeup and with wet hair, idk. It’s lovely. I never think you’re not real but this one just felt extra good if that makes sense.
You are by far my favourite content creator and you always make me so happy. watching your videos is pure serotonin for me. Thank you forever for this type of happiness you give me💗💖
I already saw the video when you uploaded it a few hours ago but I’m glad you finally got it figured out. And I’m definitely watching it again right now haha. It looks so cinematic and beautiful.
Also I just want to say I’m not gonna lie, I’ve been waiting for your next video because it definitely gives me a boost of inspirational energy that I always love and need. So thanks for all the beautiful vibes Desi. I hope to make videos like these myself. Lots of love. - Brandy 🤗💙✨
Aww Brandy 🥹🫶🏻
Thank you so much for coming back and watching after having watched the first upload 💗 I’ll be trying to get videos up more often as my health has been improving a bit. I also have so many fall video ideas, so I’m going to try to film as many of them as I can! 🥰
@@DarlingDesi of course! And take your time, quality over quantity 😊💙✨
What a beautiful beach. The water on the east is so warm. I’m surprised the beach wasn’t full. Your so lucky to have this trip. Enjoy to the fullest. Love you California Joanna
This video is 10/10 Amazing! I don't want to say it's the best of yours because I don't want to imply your other videos aren't so great as well. But from the exact balance of scenery, activity, and voiceover to the heartfelt statements at the end, I was transported on a mini beach vacation at the time I needed it most. (Last night, after a really hard parenting day, I cried to my husband that it's so hard to romanticize my life with so little time to myself.) Thank you!
I'm so thrilled that you feel better and can live life to the fullest!!
You honestly just made my whole day just by posting this beautiful video. I wish i had a front porch so i could read my book there, but i have to wait for my next vacation in Greece. I absolutely love your idea of spending time in the nature, enjoying the sounds of the birds and the wind going through the trees. Thank you for this video, it was wonderful!!!💗💗💗
I have goosebumps after this “repeat after me” part, I swear 🥺🥺🥺 I don’t know why, but after this I close my eyes, take a deep breath and feel 100% happier after open my eyes again! Thank you~~
