Yup. Desi - wearing fall-themed color coordinated clothing, eating healthy leftovers and fresh water in a mason jar. Her husband - wearing comic-book t-shirt and eating a literal jar of nutella for dinner. Somehow, I identify with both these people.

i have to say i'm so jealous watching videos like that. I feel like I'm slaving away at my dead end job to pay my bills and feed my children. I'm passed 30 and I wish I would have realized sooner what my goals in life is. But i guess I should be happy that I found them. now. And that I have a bunch of life left to live. I hope I have reached the biggest goals (finishing my education, getting my license and moving back to my hometown) in 2 years. Fingers crossed! I'll always have these videos for inspiration

I think it is so important to remember that you can still learn out of school.

I think it's sad that not many people like to learn anymore. Just wanted to hop on here to say that! 😊

I was homeschooled so I get falling out of learning in the way she described.

Okay, so, funny story- my grandma’s name was Naomi. When her grandkids were small we couldn’t say “Grandma Naomi” so it came out “Grandma Omi”. We called her that for years when she found out that Omi means grandma in German. One of her grandmothers was Swiss (second gen immigrant) and the another grandfather was German (first gen immigrant). It was a nice bit of serendipity and I’ve already decided that when I’m a grandma someday I want my grand kids to call me Grandma Omi in honor of her. ❤️

That was so lovely to watch. I agree with learning being more fun as an adult. I didn’t exactly love school, but always loved exploring random topics. So don’t worry if you are searching for random things, I think it’s amazing how many „useless“ facts aren’t useless at all and most times add to a bigger picture after a while.

late night baking is like dreaming while awake

Thanks Hannah! 🥰 You’re so nice! I’m so happy you enjoyed it 🥺

Coming back yo this vlog for the millionth time in two years because this past spring I experienced a health-issie-induced spike in anxiety that I have never had that triggered with early dark nights pre-daylight savings. While the anxiety has died down significantly, I want to make sure I take the time this fall to ease into the darker evenings with peace ad productivity.

this just makes me happy period.

I hope your channel grows, you offer one of the most beautiful "worlds" on YT. And production value is clearly superior. Regardless of the topic, I'm always inspired after I watch your videos!

Love this, Desi, it's so peaceful and relaxing. I'm a huge fan of hygge and do my best to make home a peaceful oasis. I love all the candles, cozy blankets, and "off-screen" time I can enjoy after work. Thanks for sharing your routine with us. :)

Watching your videos literally transports me into another world and brings me away from reality, thank you!

Aesthetic queen 🙌 your videos are all so beautiful and calming! The work you put into them SHOWS. You are an inspiration and remind me how important it is to be curious.

It makes me so happy that you are learning another language. It motivates me to continue learning.

These videos are just so motivating for me to get my act together and work on my apartment. Getting it to look nicer. I deal with depression and anxiety so many times, I get a bit frustrated and lose interest in things for various reasons so, I am working my way back into getting it together. Even if that means I have to start chunking some stuff and starting again and getting better organized. I have been in my apartment for almost 9 years and its still hard for me to find places for stuff, even during a time I didn't have nearly as much as I do now! It is beyond frustrating! LOL So, maybe I just need to keep these on throughout the day along with other things that help me mentally and emotionally. just relax, then get moving! (and maybe put down my switch too..lol..I tend to get lost in that little world and end up on it for hours unintentionally)

Oh my gosh my parents also met in Germany! My dad was in army intelligence and was stationed there in the mid 70's. My mom was working as an apprentice in a bakery. She used to sneak into the local disco to go dancing (she wasn't old enough to get in lol), and my dad would hang out there with her older brothers. They were just friends at first because she was so young, but they eventually started dating a couple of years older. My dad's time in the army was going to be up a few months after they started dating. My mom could either marry him and come to America or stay in Germany and never see him again. She chose to marry him and they were married for 41 years before they passed away unexpectedly a few years ago. They used to speak German in front of us any time they didn't want us to know what they were saying lol. It's so cool that your parents met the same way! Funnily enough, my mom was a Spaniard living in Germany, so all the German in me actually comes from my dad's side.

Watching your routine makes it clear that I need more definition to my routine. I shouldn't it call it because there's things that I do but without a set time frame and sometimes I don't do a thing or two and I don't feel ready to sleep, like there's still so much I could squeeze in but I wouldn't because I'm tired and done. Thank you for sharing a part of your evening. I feel motivated to take time intentionally to end my day so that I can feel better rested.
