korean summers are rough ☀️ BTS festa fireworks, picnics, seoul cafes, hiking, life updates VLOG
Dear Cari! Please don't take this CZcams statistics as a fail! Your video about flights helps people to handle with their anxiety - the figures don't matter. It's ok that life lately videos got more likes. As for me, your video-diary shows me the beauty of life and focus my attention on cute little things are surrounding us.
thank you!
As far as the flight anxiety video, it was a special video you created out of thought and concern for those who have that issue. As you can see, it's a minority of flyers, but KUDOS TO YOU for caring enough to create it. It wasn't created to be a huge popular success type video, you created it to be helpful and I'm sure those who watched it and needed that, appreciated it! Sometimes it's okay to do something special for certain people, even if it's not the 'popular' thing to do.
As always, thank you for your efforts!
Thank you always!
now I desperately want to do a picnic and read all day in a cute park like this 😭
🙏🥹
Cari: This tree will protect me. My old teachers: You wanna hold up a golf club too? Make the perfect lightning rod! 🙂Always a pleasure, Cari. Hope your summer is going well!
😂😂😂
Haha, my parents and teachers sooo stressed trying to get inside when you hear thunder, even in the distance (lightning can apparent strike like 5 miles away from the thunder cell or something). Maybe it's a little extra cautious given the odds, but I haven't been struck by lightning yet! 🤞 Lol
Happy 10 to my favorite BTS. Fireworks looked spectacular. Love this channel. Thank you.
🙏🙏🙏
Don’t underestimate older ladies and their well honed understanding of the weather 😂😂😂 thanks for taking us around as always Cari! The forest rest area is now in my bucket list.
bts festa fireworks looked so pretty
They were 🥲
Thank you for sharing the fireworks show 💜 can't believe BTS is 10 years old now, how time flies! Hope you had fun!
And I know you have been doing this way before Namjoon did, but I love your vlogs because it's Namjooning fr 💜
Which is crazy because i was studying in korea when they debuted so that means i was here 10 years ago!? Impossible hahhaha
Hello Cari. My wife and I are really enjoying your channel and videos. We love your relaxed and positive approach to living which helps us take life a little slower too and appreciate the good things. Thanks so much.
Your flight anxiety video was so helpful to me personally. I even shared it with my therapist in case he thought it would help other clients struggling with the same issue. Thank you so much for creating it!
I’m so happy you got to see the fireworks in person 🥺💜 i saw them through the livestream too and it’s so cool to think we were looking at the same thing at the same time.
🥹🙏🥹🙏🥹🙏
The sound quality for the fireworks segment was in-cre-di-ble. It felt just like being there, I could almost feel the boom on my body.
🥹🙏
My trip to Seoul happened to be the same week as BTS's 10th anniversary festa, so I watched the fireworks too! Ironically, I watched most of it from the livestream because it started while I was still eating dinner at a restaurant, but I caught the last 10 minutes (irl) and the finale was insane! I'm sure the entirety of Seoul could hear the fireworks.
The finale was nuts hahah I usually see the fireworks at yeouido from afar so being close to them was an experience 😂😂
I love the way you narrate off-camera activities -- I can picture what's happening perfectly.
😂🙏
Hi Cari! I love every single video you make, I find you very inspiring and funny. Please do take breaks whenever you need to, we will be here when you return. I´m proud of you for listening to your needs/feelings more and not letting pressure to get to you, you don´t need to be productive or active all the time.
Don´t get discouraged by analytics I´m sure your video helped a lot of people, you did an amazing job describing the steps detailed so we could mentally prepare. That video was so thoughtful and caring and shows how incredible you are. Thank you for creating amazing content! Sending you love!
my summer in 🇰🇷 was amazing,though hot 😅 i spent the 13th of June by the Han and just had a chill day celebrating BTS 10th,went to some cafes you recommended,and the finally saw the fireworks on the 17th 💜
also i went to Gyeongju,and its now one of my favorite place in! the people are so nice and the scenery is so beautiful,we stayed at a traditional Hanok house too 😊 thanks to your vlogs,i managed to explore places outside of Seoul,like Daegu,Busan and Gangwon too!
yesss i was looking forward to this! i love living korea through you!
Thank you 🥲🥲🥲
When I see gray skies, I watch the birds and feeling the drop in temperature. Works all the time. Picnics, I need to have one this summer! Mahalo Cari for the summer vibes!
Nothing like a good nostalgia playlist to get some sparkles back ✨✨
💯🥺🙏
Don't think i've ever commented on one of your videos before I just wanted to say that I really love these vlogs! I love seeing parts of Seoul and Korea that I hope to visit when I come later in the year. I think one of the main reasons i love your vlogs is because I live alone in a town where I have no friends/family/colleagues so when i do convince myself to leave my flat, I experience everything alone, which, depending on my mood/mental health, can be joyous and satisfying, or leave me crippled with anxiety and feeling lonely. To see you mostly enjoy all these experiences on your own really fills me with confidence to get out and enjoy things on my own too! Usually I watch one of your vlogs and then I get my shoes on and go out on a little adventure! So thank you. Your content is a nice little escape from my normal life, but also encourages me to actually experience things in my own life, and really, I think that's the best type of content out there.🥰 Love this channel, thank you Cari!
This makes me so happy! Yeah not having a bunch of people to do things with is how so many people let a beautiful day or trip pass them by. I hope you keep exploring further and further solo 🥹🙏
We purple you Cari! 💜💜💜
💜💜💜
loved the format of diving the vid into chapters!
Cari
Thanks for being yourself & sharing daily life with viewers. 👍😊🦋
Thanks for being here ☺️
Being born in a Greek village and currently living in one taught me to always look out for rain, no matter the season. The moment I heard that thunder I knew what was about to happen, that lady running to avoid the storm is so me, I can't even lol. As a country Greece is very unpredictable with weather, especially near the mountains. It is kinda funny to see how similar Korea can be, even in the summertime.
I loved your vlog and those fireworks made my day, thank you, Cari!!
Have a wonderful week! 💜
Your vlogs have been giving me the courage to go to new places by myself, and I'm learning to enjoy life more. Thank you for these wonderful vlogs, Cari!!
That makes me so happy 🥹🙏
Your plane anxiety video is exactly what I needed after what happened of my last flight. It was horrible and I am planning to attend Taeyeon's concert by next month alone. So thank you, thank you. 💕
I really loved your flight anxiety video!! :( I'm sorry it didn't perform as well as other videos. I think it was really important & definitely very helpful. Thank you for putting it out there!!
Thank you 🙏🙏
I so appreciated the flight anxiety video!! It doesn’t matter how many flights I’ve taken, I still get worked up 😅 I’ll definitely watch it again before my next flight. Thank you for taking the time to make it! ❤️
Thank you!!!!
It is way too hot in Spain this days (more than 40 degrees) and watching you at the forest and doing a picnic in a beautiful park is so refreshing. The fireworks were amazing and it so funny thinking that there were people all over the world watching it at the same time, you were so lucky to see them in person 😍
Please dont worry about the flight anxiety video, because even if it helps, it gives some anxiety too but it helps soo much.
Thanks for sharing your week again and happy 10th anniversary to all my fellow armys 💜💜💜💜
Hope youre finding ways to stay cool and that you’re at a picnic soon 🥺
From Malaga here! The summers here are 🔥🥵
Madrid here. Dying. Send help lol
It’s been cloudy where I live for awhile despite summer being upon us already, so I really appreciate this splash of Korean summer! Some of your shots were so ghibli-esque too. Thanks for another great video, Cari!
We just entered the cloudy/rainy season today so we’re in this together now 👊
What? You getting lost in the woods the last time feels like yesterday and now it’s suddenly summer again… wow, time flies sooo quickly🤯🤯
We are freezing here at the moment. Typical Australian winter in some parts.. I’m always wary of thunder especially lightning… Gotta love Nature!
Stay warm!!
Okay so I'm a SAHM of two littles living in TN and oh how I wish I could come hang with you in your normal day to day- but since that isn't possible I'm so so grateful you share these videos with us! Much love from small town USA. ❤️
I usually watch your videos on with my 94yo grandma. After a very stressful week, when she got her pacemaker, I am so happy to say that we are both enjoying your videos together. We like going out on this little summer adventurs with you, since it is 49°C (120F) in our small city. Thank you for your videos 💕 lots of love from northern Mexico 🌵
Omg stay cool!! My grampy always said getting his pacemaker checked was like “getting an oil change” so I hope the stress is over and just more like a usual check up from now on!
It feels hotter during the late afternoon because of all the concretes and asphalt. The sun heats up those and now you are feeling the heat from both sun and ground. Consequently, it does not cool down until late at night since ground retains the heat longer.
😭😮💨
You were my favorite booktuber, and then I found this channel and found you’re living my dream lifestyle. You’re my favorite content creator hands down, love your videos!
🥺🥹🥺🥹🥺🥹🥺🥹
The flight video was so interesting! But I know that feeling too and despite knowing how you should feel or having people reassuring you
, sometimes you can just feel meh about a situation or something not performing as well. Always good to take the time to have some space away from work. 😊
Lovely video. Loved the fireworks 🎆 👍🥰
They were stunning!
You are always so happy on camera, always cheerful and cheer me up too, thanks!
Ps. Nice Wes Anderson inspired cue cards for each chapter!
Thank you!!
👋🏻❤🇫🇮 nice vlog. 🐨
That firework show was amazing, it lasted about 30 min. I watched a live stream of that show🙈. Borahae💜
Yes!! We left a little early because we didnt want to get stuck with a crowded bus home but it was stunning!
I moved from the west coast to the east coast. Be of the humidity on the east coast we ragout true blue skies. I missed blue skies so much. Every time I travels home I would be so happy in the dry heat because I could see the familiar and comforting blue. It’s real to feel a bit off from not seeing that blue you are used to seeing almost every day.
Your vlogs always really make my weekends that much more enjoyable; thank you for keeping us company like this and showing us around! The forest library looked so airy and comfy. 🥰
Also Dragonfly by Fauness is going on my playlist immediately. 👀
Happy Sunday to you, I hope you're doing well! 🎐
Hope you had a lovely weekend!
The beginning of this video is so funny. I love your videos! Like a chat with a good friend 😊❤
the "picnic scene" was so real and so cozy, I enjoyed it the most hehe
cari omg im cryingggg this library is one of the the most stunning places I saw when I was in seoul, I didn't know it existed, I just went for a walk at this mountain then I saw it and was an amazing surprise
Omg you were blessed because i was intentionally trying to find it last year and faaaailed hahaha
I absolutely adore viewing your videos! I appreciate sharing many small pieces of Korea and it’s culture! Your cinematography was nothing short of stunning.
I love, love, love your book content! It has helped me out of MANY and I don’t say this lightly MANY reading slumps. Much love Cari!!
Thank you 😭😭😭
I prepare a great travel in your country for next year. So your videos are just perfect !! Can’t wait, 1 week in Seoul and 1 week in Busan!! Thanks for everything
i love you and your videos💕
new subscriber here and i just love how you capture things and have such a good attitude all the time (at least what we get to see). when things like the rain and noisy neighbors etc bother most, you stick through them and stay strong and positive
you also acknowledge the little things, which is so sweet and refreshing to see. always nice to see a real human being online
Your videos transmit so much peace, it's like my therapy lol. Love u
Thank you 🥹
thank you for your transparency about the struggles of youtube 💙 in my limited experience with my small channel, it's already been wild to discover that unpleasant phenomenon of "i understood rationally that this video wouldn't do as well as the others, but now that it's happening i can see that there's no way to predict how that will hit emotionally..." i can only imagine how those highs and lows might be amplified for full time creators with a sizable audience, so it's really generous of you to share that point of view. and i really loved the flight anxiety video, all the info from pilot dad was particularly helpful!
Exactly, and youtube really made a choice by putting the 10/10 analytics on the home page so you can help but see it 🙃
As someone who is afraid of flights I have to say that ever since you uploaded the flight anxiety video I have been postponing watching it because I want to be mentally prepared!
So I think that there are a lot of people like me that have put watching that video on the back burner waiting for stress free time to watch it 😅
I totally get that! not blaming the viewers at all, just bummed that youtube has so many ways of reminding you you did badly lol
@@caricakes So it's a good thing that you have the comment section to remind you that you are doing great ❤
누님 영상 항상 재밌게 보고 있습니당~~ 좋은 하루 되세욥~~😊
cari I loved this video so much 🥹🥹 the fireworks, the books, the library, and then Spotify recommendations at the end. This is all I could ask for 💖💖
Heheh thank you!
Hi Cari The hottest part of the is 2 to 4 pm. Summer storm time. 3:30 pm when its home time at the children's school. Lightning, thunder and warm rain. Sydney Australia
Such a beautiful video Cari, and I really love the music you choose for the video❤
Thank you!!
I’m so glad someone else mentioned the semi-equivalent to SAD for summer! I was that way in the past, in university days. I think the constant thunderstorms, overwhelming heat and humidity, and the mostly deserted campus was too much. There are less activities during university semesters during the summer also and the work is faster paced. It’s all just a downer. I have adjusted to the heat and it isn’t quite as depressing. I also have a better sense for what rejuvenates me mentally/physically now then I used to be. Hang in there. Now I appreciate the rain and thunderstorms, although they seem more severe these days (maybe I know the risks more versus the actual severity 😮). Glad you are able to branch out to some physical books too. That’s fun!
Hang in there too! Autumn is right around the corner 🥲
Hii, I'm a long time subscriber. I've not watched much, if any, of your videos in the last 2 years because I've been ultra busy with my Master's in which I lost a lot of myself; personality, habits, hobbies. I've passed everything now and came across one of your videos and since then I've been catching up. I used to watch you every morning and when I needed some peace. Watching your videos again makes me feel like I'm getting pieces of myself back after losing it these last 2 years. This is very emotional of me but I just wanted you to know :)
I'm a little jealous of your warm weather right now while I'm rugged up with my heater lol Thank you for mentioning your mental health and how you manage it, it really helps to know you're not alone ❤Another gorgeous video Cari!
Sounds like nice reading weather 🥰🥰
@@caricakes If only I didn't have to go out, I would be reading! 😭
I love the smell of rain and the electric feel of summer storms. It was 0.8C this morning where I live 😅
Wholesome AF. CZcams can go take a hike, your videos are always flawless, Cari 😌
🥰🥰
Flo Rida is in fact a mood enhancer.
Never fails.
I literally freaked out when you said you listened to Aurora lol! She’s my fave artist of all time🥹
I would love to hear you speak korean in a video sometime 😊 this vlog was grest as always
I am not an anxious flyer, but I still watched your video about it and appreciated the information. Love all your videos. 😊
Thank you 🥲🥲🥲
I'm on vacation but I got sick (of course I did...) and this is like a little balm for my soul. Cari content and BTS stuff all in one - what more could a girl ask for
Noooo get well soon! And yeah all my calendars are totally wrong, i just keep them up for the art ahhaha
@@caricakes Thank you
I haven’t watched the anxious flying video yet but that’s because I’m waiting to watch it fresh before the flight I have planned in September! Knowing I have that to watch in the future is so comforting in itself!
Love your little fan! We got a few the last time we were in Seoul and we use them every summer even in Northern New York.
Your videos are always so soothing!! Where is your blouse from at 11:48? It’s so cute!!
Hi cari! Me and my sister talk about you and your channel the whole time here at home. It's almost like we know you personally like a friend. I just wanted to say; i appreciate a lot your hard work, and your videos are keeping me inspired to do fun things by myself in my free time. ❤❤❤ A kiss from Brazil ❤❤❤
🥹😭🥹😭 thank you so much!
Me and my bf usually watch your videos together and when you went outside of Seoul he just paused the video: THAT’S MY NEIGHBORHOOD! 😨 it was very funny haha, I hope you are doing well!! 🌼
i really love your vlogs Cari
I cannot tell you how perfect the timing of your flying video was and how thankful I am for it!
I had a really difficult time dealing with my anxiety during my last trip and was mentally preparing myself for a much longer flight I’m going on at the end of July. I just think it’s so funny how you had been contemplating making that video for years, and you decided to make it right when I needed it most!
I always live for your content and this video and the last one are no exception.
Thank you xoxo!!
The fireworks is insane omg
So good 😭🙏
I visited SK last July and it was great! However, your vlog resonates with the advice given by my friends, with whom I stayed, not to come next time in the summer (rainy) season. So I've booked to return in March 2024-can't wait! Many thanks for the vlog - lovely to see Seoul again. 🇰🇷👍
BTS 💜💜💜💜
I actually loved your flight anxiety video so much - Not because i have a fear of flights (i've never gotten on a plane) but because i feel like it's so unique, all your videos are so authentic and fun, everytime you upload i try to find a calm day to watch them while drawing because they give me so much cozy happy vibes?
Hello from California.
Yes, RM always looks very familiar at 18:34. Thank you for sharing BTS content 🎆 xoxo
💜💜💜
Cari...is the RM shot taken in Itaewon where you were at?
I accidentally watched the video. I am a person living in Korea. Looking at the video, I'm glad it seems like you're having a good time in Korea. Good luck~!
The Summertime Sadness, as Lana put it so eloquently. It is so real.
I absolutely loved your anxious flight video! I'm going to Japan in October which is a 14 hour flight, and I am extremely nervous flying for even 1 hour. Your video helped me a lot and I've saved it to watch the night before my flight! Don't let the statistics get you down, that video is special and has/will continue to help a lot of people who struggle with anxiety.
Yes!!!!!!!!
Listening to the same set of songs makes me feel meh! Relatable ✨✨
Cari, you are now a fully fledged Korean. Eating watermelon with chopsticks 😂
😂😂😂
Always quality content, Cari! 💜
Thank you 🥹😂
I haven't been able to watch your videos for a while because of my crazy work schedule but this one was such a great welcome back video for me!!! You look amazing. You have a beautiful glow. Going to binge your videos that I've missed! Have a wonderful day! ❤
That forest is so beautiful 💚
Right?!
You're truly an inspiration, love you and your channel.
Thank you 🥹🥹🥹
The music thing has actually been studied would you believe. The music we listen to during our teenage years and early 20s will always be the most memorable to us, as our brains go through a lot of changes during that time. We form much stronger associative memories and emotional reactions to that music! This is why adults always think that the music from their youth is "better" than the music we get nowadays ;)
I looked into this while researching music as therapy for dementia patients, and if you ever want a good cry I recommend looking it up - there is one in particular that won an award at the Sun Dance film festival I believe? It's on youtube anyhow.
Stay cool and hydrated!
That white top is so cute 🥹🥹🤍
The cooling off thing is actually a city thing. On the country side, noon is the warmest period and then it will cool off. However, as cities take in a lot more heat and then release it during the rest of the day. That's because the materials dominating the city scape (asphalt, concret, stone...) store heat really well and gradually release it (which may turn cities into living hells as well). Waterbodies and plants on the other hand barely store heat, so the tempreature is much more in line with the position of the sun.
Omg i am going to South Korea in 2 weeks and oh boy I am scared for the heat lol (it’ll be my very first time there, it’s been my dream to go forever ❤)
Anyways, I loved your vlog it gave me a sneak peek of what I’ll see :’)
its less the heat and more the humidity to worry about hehe just wear clothes that you're okay to feel sticky in hahah no plastics or leathers! as breathable as possible!
@@caricakes Okay ! Thanks for the tip ❤
I am a fan of yours and The reason I shared the music suggestion is because he is my son. I enjoy your videos. They are always entertaining and a great adventure for me!
Thank you!
I got a migraine this weekend because of the heat so I feel you, Seoul in summer is no joke 😭 thank you for the video, at least I started my day right 🙏🙏 made me feel less guilty about my lack of productivity in the heat 🥺
Yeah its really serious! My friend got heatstroke and had to be hospitalized a few years ago so pls be safe 🥹🙏
So awesome to hear one of your fav youtuber's mention one of your favourite musicians ❤ Aurora is honestly one of my favourite artists!
This vid was a nice little retreat from the cold Winter and this darn cold/sinus infection I cannot seem to shake, so I am eating Mandarins and drinking all the hot tea I can physically hold while watching!
I live in Miami and i live for the gray days, I always wait patiently for them, I hate those overly bright blue days 😭 the humidity in here is horrendous tho and not gonna start with the heat. I am the happiest when I go up north in fall and winter
Yeah florida heat is something else 🥲
I really enjoyed this video! It was very relaxing. Also, I appreciated your airplane anxiety video and I think a lot of people will get a lot of useful tips from that video.
Love looking forward to watching cari every sunday ❤ thank you!!! 🎉
🥹🙏🥹🙏🥹
Went to a Café the other day with my hubbie that looked like one you would go to and got a coffee and a cake and was so happy ❤ love these videos always I'm having a hectic life lately and you help me have a break from it for a lil 😊
love your video so muchhh
love this vlog, the start was so chaotic but so funny ❤
THIS VIDEO WAS BEAUTIFUL!!💕
Thanks for watching 🥹
