    Leave those bits like the last one in Katie. Honesty, openness, and sweetness are loved by everyone.

    I've been thinking about TH-cam and studying and traveling abroad my whole life. Last August, I was finally able to go to Ireland and Scotland, and like you said, "Ever since then, I have been plotting my return." But what you said at the end really resonated with me. The bit about being grateful to your 20 year old self for picking up a camera-- terrified, for pushing through and booking a ticket alone...I realized that what I want will only happen if I take the leap, even if I'm terrified. Especially if I'm terrified. Thank you for sharing! I know I'll be looking back on myself in a few years with nothing but love for my 22 year old self who picked up that camera, bought a plane ticket, and did it terrified. But knowing I'm not alone, and there are others out there doing the same is so uplifting.

    I don’t usually comment on TH-cam videos but what you said at the end of your video was beautiful. Good luck in London and make sure to fun because you deserve it!

    Wow, yes!!! When you were talking about making spaces for yourself and always being yourself, but quietly. Oh my. I can relate. I can tell when I'm being myself and when I'm not. It's so much easier to be myself quietly in my own safe spaces, but I want to be myself loudly if that makes sense.

    Waited. Didn't disappoint! Welcome to London KB! Pretty sure the American TH-camr was the coolest person in the room 😉 Glad it's going fairly smoothly so far. I wondered what you'd think of Elephant and Castle! Look forward to hearing more about your views on (real) London soon.

    Hi Katie! I studied abroad in England last year, and your videos were extremely helpful and comforting when I was preparing to leave, and even while I was there too. Now that I am back in the states, I am dreaming of moving to London. Watching you follow your dreams has been so amazing and so motivating. I hope that you love where you are :)
