"Asynchronous communication is so very easy to romanticize because when it is balanced and healthy, that return message is like having a sweet. It is perfectly satisfying, indulgent, and what you were waiting for." - what a beautiful turn of phrase, thank you for sharing 💕

God I am the worst at keeping in touch with old friends and colleagues, 'tis hard when you don't have that one thing in common anymore and you all went your separate ways :/ and yeah, long, handwritten letters on a pretty stationery - 🥰😊💛 Though there's one thing that emails and dms have over them and that is the ability to use the Backspace key xd I would waste so much paper before phrasing the letter the right way 😆 Streaming? 👀

It’s a lovely update and a really nice way to start a day for me 🥰 it just feels cosy and right(???) listening to you while also doing my own things, heheee

I enjoy watching your hands as you speak. The movement is gentle and soothes the anxious bits of my brain. It also somehow feels more personal. You have beautiful fingers. Asynchronous communication is so very easy to romanticize because when it is balanced and healthy, that return message is like having a sweet. It is perfectly satisfying, indulgent, and what you were waiting for. Languages are one of my first loves. I spent two years in high school learning Latin, then Spanish, and my best friend’s mother tongue is French (Belgian). I grew up in a community with a strong Portuguese heritage and an entire generation who wouldn’t learn English in principle, and with a grandmother who both scolded and doted on me in Italian. If I had the luxury, I’d spend my days chasing fluency in as many languages as possible. Thank you, as always for the little visit into your world. Looking forward to your next adventure. Que el viento bese tu rostro y aligera tus pasos. xx N

Patreon streams? 👀👀👀 If they can figure that out that'd be awesome. I do miss the cozy gaming. I'm team scruff. Mostly because 1. Shaving makes any man look instantly 5 years younger and I don't like change lol and 2. Not a huge fan the stubble kisses as it's regrowing. Personally, I'm very bad at replying to messages in a timely manner. I usually type up too much, and/or I often just straight up forget to reply if I get distracted or don't have anything meaningful to say. A reminder poke is useful for me sometimes if someone actually expects an answer though. But that's just me talking to a few people. My introverted brain would have an aneurysm dealing with anything more than that. I have actually written letters back and forth before. We sent them through the mail and everything because it was a ldr at the time. It was fun, and a little bit romantic. My handwriting sucks so that might have cheapened the experience some but it made it more personal. Continued cat content + kitty snuggles 🙌 Looking forward to the poll audio and the ama. I'm glad we all mostly agree on the [desperate] tag 🔥

Touch you? Please? Pretty please? That includes shoulder rubs, hand holding, hair scritching, belly pats, and the rest shall be left up to the imagination (yadda yadda face sitting yadda yadda hair pulling... Teehee)~ This was such a sweet update! Never stop on those sweet hand movements, they add that right tough of emphasis onto your rambles and a nostalgic feeling from those streaming days. If you do decide to squeeze in those patreon streams, always go with what's comfortable for you... but more hand cams and Albert sightings are always nice 👀 I can understand the time constraints and how your brain are functioning on two completely different planets, so to speak. From recording to editing to traveling and hoping your surroundings aren't too distracting and your mind is on that right frequency and mindset to record. It's a challenge, I'm sure, but in the end you're still producing amazing content and I'm impressed with how you've been able to juggle it all 🤹‍♂️ Letters, yes!! I'm a sucker for letters and love how flexible it can be, but the main part of it all that fascinates me the most is the effort put into writing and observing how a person shapes each letter. Are they bubbly? Is it rigid or fluid? Will there be cute doodles on the margins and what kind of adventures will I read this time? This not only goes for letters, but in a DM setting, I know it's difficult not to respond to someone right away (I'm in that same boat, and still working on it), and that's the beauty of letters. It's not quick, there is no sense of urgency. It flows with your rhythm, your time. And that's beautiful. I have more to say, but I feel it best to stop here. Any more, and I might soon find out Patreon's character limit in the comments💀 I wish you well in your travels, thank you ever so kindly for that sweet kitty content, and can't wait for that ama/future audios/updates! Stay safe, meow meow 💙

What do you MEAN we would ask you two hours worth of questions if you didn't set ama limits?! We would NE-ver. 😂 Possibly TMI, but I started using an electric razor on my legs about a year ago and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. My legs are so much happier. (Plus you can do it while you watch a show instead of wasting more water in the shower.) Re: oui. Have you seen French Kiss with Meg Ryan and Kevin Klein? I don't think it's streaming anywhere, but he does the "weh" pronunciation. I adore that movie. Thank you for this video update. I'm really enjoying these, and looking forward to all the fun stuff up ahead! 🤍

Okay, I'm done and can organize my brain in a Cat-like comment: I love the Spanish hands, please keep handcamming in some capacity as long as you'd like. Of course, a livestream would be lovely, but that's on Patreon and your comfort, of course. I'm pretty stuck where I am, physically, which is okay, but I love that I can live just a little bit through your nomad travel life right now. Even if the places are generally anonymous, it's fun to tag along. I can picture you not just writing letters (emails/DMs can be asynchronous too, as long as all parties understand there's no urgency to respond) but you absolutely would have been a long distance chess player, with your cute little board and writing notes about moves once a week. Without a doubt I see that happening if you'd been born in a different time. Lovely to meet your new kitty friend at the next stop. I hope your allergies are behaving as you travel the world snuggling all the cute kitties. Thank you for the update, sending whatever touches you'd like (I second the massage request)

6:26 caught me off guard wth 😭 I find it amazing how you get to make friends and talk to people easily! Because honestly how do you that. I've always been the designated person for when friends are too shy to approach others but I can never strike a conversation for a conversation 💀 Anyway, it's really sweet that you try to immerse yourself with the languages you're interested in, that's so cool! Safe travels, Crunchy! Kisses and cuddles to your new little cat friend please 🥺❤

OUAIS!!! Finally, we got there bestie ❤️
