  • Spend a vacation rewilding & connecting with my inner mermaid alone in my cute beach side cottage. Going on holiday solo has been a very healing adventure after such an emotional turmoil of late. I will update you on my 'quest to find a fairy tale cottage' news and what's been going on behind the scenes. Full moon ritual, house tour, feeling lonely, plein air art dates, sketching mermaids and more. Thank you so much for keeping me company my this little corner of TH-cam. Love you all to bits, Biggest, Softest, Everythings, Wendy. Xx

    I think I’ve realised that there are no forever homes or perfect homes. Everything is transient. The sanctuary is within us and we can take it everywhere and visit at any time.
    Peace within cannot be found without xx

      I have a fantasy place in my mind that I meditate on when I need to be alone, but never get to due to life circumstance, I visualize myself there having ritual fires and spending time in nature....it's my sanctuary.

    Dear Wendy, I am a retired lady, recent cancer survivor, recently widowed. My beloved husband was my rock for 35 years. Now, alone, no children, also an outsider, unable to " fit in"...However, I recently began painting and I love it!, Gerry was a gifted artist but I did not realise I could paint. I love your videos...your personality shines. Your honesty. I think, like me, you are an Empath....very sensitive. Follow your intuition, your heart wisdom and all will be well. I will ask my Angels to lead you to your forever home. 💚🙏🌻🌻

    Thank you so much for including us in your journeys, physically and emotionally this year. I'm close in age - I'm turning 57 in 2 weeks! My life has been upturned in the past 2 - 3 years. Everyone's world was turned upside down in 2020, but I also lost my dad, due to diabetes complications, which I also have and have been taking more seriously. On September 30, 2021, my husband, who is only 3 months older than me, had a stroke. After several medical procedures for over six months, he is mostly back to normal, but a year to the date of his stroke, he retired. He wants to sell our home of over 15 years and move back to our home state of Texas. Our youngest of three moved into the dorms in the middle of August, after living with us. And 4 days later, our middle child who has severe autism and lives in a group home 1 1/2 hours away from us went missing. He was found the next morning, and we kept him with us for a week and a half. This is the second time this year. But the longest he's ever been missing. And now I'm trying to get back into my "normal" routine, which isn't normal because it's just my husband and me, which we haven't had in decades. Which is all to say that I'm sorry that you weren't able to get your cottage. It looked like it would have taken a lot of work, and the older we get, the less we're able to do physically. I've been dreaming about our next home. I'm sorry if I've shared too much, but it's hard to otherwise let you know that I do understand and empathize about needing to reground yourself in your life.

    This, to me, is one of the most beautifully aesthetic videos I have seen so far from you ✨🙏✨
    I think there is a veil of sadness around everyone these days as we go through this evolution and ascension-not just us humans but of the earth herself! So much has come out of the shadows for us to bring into the light- as the world carries shadows so de we. No wonder all of us are feeling all these emotions! In order to grow and change, the old must come up, be alchemized and be released. I have been experiencing this process for the past 3 years but even longer (only I wasn't as aware back then). It's not for the faint of heart- but we must become more heart-centered and trust ourselves. Letting go of old beliefs of ourselves, facing ourselves and loving ourselves. It's hard to do when so many are in relationships too, but alone time is key to our "innerstanding" of who we are in this world. Living in the moment is so hard for us, but if we try, even a few times a day, the fear and anxiety just disappear. I think it was very healing for you to do this trip to the sea, alone. If only we were taught how to heal ourselves from the very start of arriving here!! Blessings to you Wendy. Here's to the ones who are showing themselves courage and love. ✨❤✨

    Wendy, thank you for allowing me to tag along on your getaway adventure. I just entered the 70 crowd. I was starting to have a pity party, feeling sorry for myself because I can't do things I used to be able to do. But when I finished watching the movie "Jumanji, the Next Level", Grandpa Eddie used to say in the beginning, "Don't let nobody tell you different, but getting old sucks...later in the movie, he changes his idea to,"Getting old is a gift." It's my attitude, I need to change. Anyway, your getaway was so much needed. The place you went to...cozy, comfy, beautiful. You were brave to venture out...climbing the steps, sitting on the shore at night, catching sightings of who knows what😮. I loved it. The sari you bought, love. You were not alone. You were one with God and nature. Just Glorious❤ So, may you be filled with peace, inspiration, patience, hope, trust, love, and lots of other positive vibes. I am claiming all of this for myself as well. 😊👍

If we could truly embrace that, would we stop yearning for that earthly abode we so desperately search for? I too want to be in a different place. The struggle is real.

    I love your introspective posts, I think many of us are going through life's ups and downs. As I creep closer and closer to turning 56 - I have been trying to reflect on my life's journey. My personal ups and downs - am I grateful for what I have? yes; do I suffer from fear? yes; am I lonely at times? yes. The things that keep me in fear and loneliness is - I am in fact alone - I lost my husband just over 6 years ago now to complications from cancer. Since then, I have lost many more people from my life - illness, age, and the worst of all - friends due to profound disappointments (gossip, two faced toxicity). I, too, have been pondering am I in the right place for me? The universe seems to think so... I have been trying to sell my house to move once again - but 110 days on the market - no buyer. My next chosen adventure is a big one that will take me through mountain passes (the US Continental Divide) and I chose not to trek this path in the winter (icy, snowy roads). So, do I stay and try to get my roots to grow in sand? Or, do I try to sell again in the spring? I am not sure - maybe I haven't learned the lessons I was sent here to learn? In the mean time - I hope you get your fairy cottage - I know the feeling of wanting something so badly that it seems impossible to get. Hang in there Wendy, James and all of us here wondering what will be. 💖

I need to stop and allow myself to feel the bittersweet pain of now so I can let it go and refocus on the gratitude and open up to my next chapters. Btw I am 58 and like so many before mentioned these last 3 years took a toll on our family. I think as a collective whole we are all emerging from our emotional survival mode to try to rebuild a new life. Love to all my fellow unexpected gypsies!

    I have abandoned myself also last month from negative association (not from friends or family). But what helped me get through one day at a time which I’m grateful for doing so is prayer. I’m not a religious person but my last hope was through a higher power and making myself slow down and take care of myself on weekend…and during the week let my life rely on the super power. I’m still on this voyage as if I’m letting god take the wheel.

    Dear Dear Wendy, don’t we all need our spaces. It’s a passage of growing older that we realize this need to get ourselves grounded to be able to face the problems we bring on to complicate our lives and minds. I have days when I feel I’m standing in a different dimension while the world rushes by. It’s overwhelming, so those are the times I need to spend doing for myself.
    My great auntie would tell us to let our fears go and come back to conquer them another day, right now we needed to live in our hearts not our minds. Gratitude is a heart and soul builder.
    Pure blessings to you and James 🥰🥰

I want you to know your videos have really grown and refined over time and you've captured the essence of solitude for creatives or anyone who needs rejuvenating. I love all the nature(because that recharges me too)- your walks, the sound of the seagulls and beach- even your glimpses of whale wallpaper! We like to have a plan and know where we are going professionaly and personally but really we don't always know the twists and turns of our journey or the seeds we plant that help others along the way. Your videos always remind us to pay attention to our inner inklings and intuition, so thanks- with gratitude.

    you find the loveliest little retreat spots, thks for sharing. I felt out of sorts 10 years ago after my dearly loved father in law passed on when I was in my 50s, I wasn't able to concentrate and abandoned my uni study, reflecting that I wasn't loving it. I turned to art instead and am never melancholy anymore. I have finally learnt to seek my heartfelt needs, which ebb and flow, and consciously be grateful. I'm sure you will find your forever home but perhaps it won't be a picturesque cottage...mine is not, being in suburbia, but I have tweaked it over the last 30 years until it is perfect for me, including a large arts and crafts space and a hobby space for hubby too. Wishing you all the best in your search, I can say my little home has provided stability and a sense of safety for me.

    i'm 52 and menopausal...i've experienced 4 significant deaths over the last 10 years...my mom being last november...my husband and i have decided to downsize so we are packing up but haven't started looking for a new home yet...i feel like for the first time in my life that i can figure out who i want to be...writer? crafter? painter? gardner? i can be all of those people...i've figured out in the first chunk of my life that things are definitely a burden...and that home is wherever my husband is...
    i know you'll keep walking and loving and creating ❤ it's going to be ok

    Good morning from Canada Wendy. This video...good grief, I feel like I was there, feeling the same feels. I am wondering if I'm just feeling the weight of the world and trying to deny it. The melancholy creeps in and spills over in the strangest places and times. I have not been focusing on gratitude often enough. Maybe that will help. Thanks for this video. All time favourite.

    on our green couch, in our living room, on our laptops, all our movies are packed in the double garage storage, we had to watch our downloads...

    PS Loved it. Watched this twice. The second time just after a scary movie with Patrick. I said, "Wendy is my favourite TH-camr", and your beach, forest, cabin, moonbeam and weird light moving across the sky, were captivating.

Sadly he passed and I do day trips there but its not the same without him, even though I feel an infinity with the sea and all Lyme has to offer,, I'll never capture those happy days. Treasure times with James, life is short ❤❤ Ps I always took my Fairy lights when we stopped in cottages etc

    Hello dearest Wendy, thank you for sharing your special getaway time you so desperately needed. What really stood out to me was your visit by the Robin...wow and what a profound message from the Robin 👉🏻 The significance of seeing a Robin is the sign of new beginnings and renewal. They also appear spiritually reminding us to uncover happiness and they are also associated with entering a new chapter in your life. The Robin shows courage (you mentioned courage inspite of the presence of fear) When the Robin spirit animal comes to you (as it did on the chair) it's time to ground firmly and embrace your confidence. The message from the Robin is to trust in yourself and the people who love you. The visit by the Robin and its messages blends in so well and beautifully with your getaway. Blessing, love and hugs to you 🤗💗

    This little cottage is so lovely and the TEDDY - such a wonderful memory. As far as the cottage in the woods. I felt all the way over here, that was going to be a financial nightmare and no matter how much you wished, I kept hoping you wouldn’t take it. Wendy, your little piece of tranquility will come, and your heart will sing when it shows up. Patience is something that we all must practice. Sending you big love from the states because I can feel yours all the way over here.

    Everything about that was lovely, from the scenery to the pretty music and your uplifting monologue. There’s always calm after the storm as well as before and I hope you’ll soon have enough stability in life to find and keep your feet. Some random observations…the place you stayed in was SO nice, I could happily live somewhere like that, the dark red robe you bought at the market was absolutely gorgeous and I want one, and your hair looks great tucked behind your ears and off your face ☺️. I’m keeping everything crossed that your true home will find you soon. Keep smiling 💛🌹

    You are lovely... and I always felt the little remote cottage would not be the dream you think it could have been... I know from experience of a hovel 50 years ago,,,, and currently not a hovel but a very demanding 1850 with one part Napoleonic and another 1950sw barn conversion with land is beautiful but hard work and beyond my budget,,, that;s the thing with Datchas and beautiful properties however small they need expertise and miney to manage and maintain........ so I am happy for you that you found a beach place and have a very understanding patient so it appears partner. You really are blessed!

  • @valsummerfield3069

    I really enjoyed this video. It took me to a place where I found myself, along with you. First of all you are just beautiful, beautiful and natural. The last few years have had their challenges for me and a few months ago lost my mom from this world. I say from this world because I believe we'll be together again. I'm 51, and married (to an Englishman), no children and just a half sibling I didn't grow up with. So, at times, and actually today before I watched your video, I was feeling quite alone. This is all part of being a human being and I understand that too. I do find it beautiful that we can reflect and express our thoughts and feelings. Life can be mysterious. A heartfelt hug from Massachusetts.
