Writers: Averchenko (I doubt that he was ever translated) and Chekhov (he saw 4 years of the XX). I love Pasternak's poetry and Balmont was pretty flamboyant with his words... aaand I don't think that they were translated either. P. S. Gorgeous blouse, by the way.

​@ Well, Lenin loved Averchenko, but the guy was not very fond of the "Father of Russian Socialism" and had his laugh at the expense of that bald communistic mushroom, he died in Prague in 1925. Pasternak had his troubles with the Soviet government too, and poetry is not that easy to translate. But if you can find Averchenko in Polish, I highly recommend him - he kind of took the Chekhov's and Gogol's legacy and multiplied it by 665. the man was beyond funny.

I realized that by sending more letters, I received more letters. A few years back, I started writing letters to people I care about. I did it to express my feelings when I didn't know how to tell them on the phone or via text messages. And people started answering me. Now I write at least a letter per week and everyone respond. I have 5 regular pen pals and 5 other that send me cute postcard when they see one. I'm really happy about those new relationship over letters. It brings me closer to people as they express themself more via letter. Writing letters is a really good thing to take from the past. Also, I write them with a lit candle near by, on cute paper and classical music playing. I always feel like a character in a historical drama doing that.

The shots of Kraków's old town hit me right in the heart... I lived in this city for 3 years, and moved back to Warsaw almost two years ago. Since then, there seriously hasn't been a DAY where I wouln't miss it, and seeing any photos of footage of the streets and places I got to know so well always reminds me that oh, I went there with my friends on that nice summer night, hey, I wonder if that bar with the entrance hidden in the bathroom is still in business, oh, I used to take that path and I would walk all the way back to Ruczaj along the river... God DAMN do I miss this city. I spent 90% of my life in Warsaw, yet I neither know nor like this city even half as much as I do Kraków. I really think I left a piece of my heart back there.

I speak from experience when I say that she is completely right about embroidery and cross stitching being calming, and if you get bored with the repetition than consider listening to an audio book. I’ve spent hours on end cross stitching and it is really relaxing and nowhere near as hard as it looks.

I was expecting an eventual punchline but instead I just got wholesome Edwardian relaxation. 10/10 would watch again

The Green Gables series is one of my faves! So excited you mentioned it! I do have to say, I finished 4 cross-stitch patterns this past year... 2 that just sat there forever, and two brand new ones!

It is so incredible to see that even though we're all different people from different parts of the world we still somehow find common hobbies and experience the same thing, i found myself enjoying painting by numbers and other things to concentrate my mind on something else, also journaling and writing is incredible!

I wore a mask even in situation where it would be unnecessary just to tell people in a way that "I care about you", and to help my Uni colleagues I switched from being the person that doesnt talk at al to the clown of the group during courses just to introduce some fun to the weird situation for them. I feel like 2020 was a year of selfachievements for me, I started drawing, I started doing photography again (in safe situations) and somehow I learned how to socialize more, but for most people last year was a hard one so I feel like it is my duty for 2021 to try and make people more comfortable until all this thing is over.

Surrounding yourself with beauty and being able to take a timeout from life to enjoy the simple things is the only thing that has been keeping me sane as of late.

Recently my sister and I have taken up cross-stitching! It's so fun, and there's no shortage of patterns and ideas. I also like how I can get results quickly, and the repetitive stitching is calming. I love making items from video games specifically, one pixel translated into one stitch. So far I haven't done more that a 40x40 stitch project, but I'm getting better! I also love to relax with tea. I have a teacup that wasa a gift from my best friend that is perfect for the amount I like. My favorite is Earl Gray, specifically Bigelow because it has more bergamont oil. I like to add some suger and almondmilk, Ive found other milk to heavy, grainy, or sour in tea. The last time I had tea was when my friend (the one who gave me the cup) and I made Chai and sat outside to watch the Pink Moon on April 26. It was great.

I melted a little when she said "feel free to pet the screen" 🥺🥺

this is so lovely and sooo needed ❤️ i think i read “a little princess” probably once a month between the ages of 10 and 12. i’ve been in a reading rut and you’ve inspired me to go dig it out and escape to that world for a little while.

sorry to hear your Monday sucked but happy to hear you liked it!

"...that will make your heart feel warm and fluffy" oh mom 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

OK, but "The swan" at the beginning nearly brought me to tears. Because there's a breathtaking piece of ballet choreography, the dying swan, set to that piece. It's heart-rending and I really hope ballet makes it through this. Yes for more art and reading and beautiful things. Yasss for old timy children's literature! The best. Thank you for the lovely video

Bless your sweet heart. I totally burst into tears when you poured the milk into the tea and it made beautiful waves in the teacup. It was so simple and totally touched me.

I just finished crocheting a hat for the first time!!! meme mom pls be proud.

This is so beautiful and calming 🥺

this was one of the most quietly reassuring things i've seen in a really long time and that is incredibly important to me.

Yes, good point! We have the choice. I decidet to cut down smartphone time. I bought myself an old used flip phone that I can keep around at all times to be in reach for family and friends. It has no WhatsApp. Getting back to actually calling people! With that second phone I know I can put away my smartphone away for days and muted. Only using WhatsApp on my Laptop via WhatsAppWeb when I really want to and not when notifications dictate me to use it and scroll and scroll through instagram and then youtube hours passing... Did not want that anymore, so being aware of that and having a second phone that I can keep with me without distraction works great so far. Thank you for your great work Karolina, I found your channel in this pandemic and it really helps. You inspire me to do what I want to. Greetings and love from Germany!!

I hope your phone detox works out for you! My sister did a similar thing a while ago and she was surprised to see how much free time appeared out of nowhere

That's brilliant! I have an app that only lets me use non-essential apps within certain times (between 07:30 and 08:45, and 18:00-20:00) and only for one hour per app. This means I still get to indulge myself sometimes, but it really helps to have something limiting me. It made me be so much more productive during the day, and forcing me to spend my time off-screen during the evenings.

You are such a wonderful person! Thank you for this video and for your whole channel! It brings me so much joy!

The shots were just perfect, and the colors reminded me of my grandmother's house. A calm and relaxing video. Great!

People need so much escapism right now, I don't think I've ever seen this phenomenon at that level of intensity before Co19

There's a lot to escape, and many of our usual methods are missing.

Everything about this video is exquisite. I'm a classical musician and I recognized your background music right away, and it made me feel so instantly relaxed I literally sighed out loud.
