Hi Sophie, I discovered Jo Malone in 2009 when I visited the UK the first time. My all-time-favourite has to be Wood Sage & Sea Salt. It´s my "signature scent". In the summer I like wearing English Pear & Freesia, too. In autumn, winter and sometime on evenings in the summer I enjoy wearing Pomegranate Noir. A new scent of mine is Honeysuckle & Davana. Did you have the chance to smell this one?
Hi Sophie. Nice video. Can I just say that I really related to you when you were driving into Hay On Wye and crossing the border. "England, England, England, WALES!" It's exactly what I would do. Let me add that I like the way you kept your voice so quiet while inside the bookstores. You are very respectful. Someone taught you manners!
Hi Sophie, nice to see you again. It`s been a long time. Glad you got to see Taylor Swift. I think she`s fantastic. What`s your favourite song of hers? Mine is Style. Glad you`re well.
I don't know if you've read this one, but "The Hiding Place" by Corrie Tenn Boom is supposed to be an amazing story of hope amidst STRONG adversity. My parents read it together and said it was a hard read, but very uplifting as well. Enjoyed your list!
Hi it was mainly due to the time of year we went. It was during s heat wave and the room was just too hot for us. The building itself we were in was also quite run down. Had we gone a different time of year we probably would have just asked to move tk a different building
Stay safe in Israel. I'd wait to visit until things are settled (one way or another) because it still could get hairy with the terrorists and rogue regimes.
Hi Sopie, I‘m interested in the Chanukka-Menora. We learned about it in school when we visited the nearby „Synagoge“ (I don’t know the correct English name) but I forgot the ritual. How does it work? Do you lit the middle candle on the first day and each day a new candle is added, lit from the first/middle candle. Are the lit fron left to right?
Yes on the first night you light the taller candle called the shamash usually on the end or the middle and use this to light one candle for each night of Hanukkah . For example on the fourth night you’d light the shamash and then 4 candles .
Thank you for sharing your update with us. I've been watching your videos for a while and it's sad to see you so upset. I've got everything crossed for you for 2024 xxx
Hey Sophie! How come you don’t want to buy from Lush anymore? As far as I know they are pretty sustainable and even more so for us as they are made locally!
Hi Sophie, thank you for filming and uploading the video series. I heard and read so many about Israel but I never visited the country. Sad news from Israel are in very paper and news programm in the last months. It makes me sad and somehow speechless. Thank you for the videos because it gives me hope for the future.
The Zionists Has Engaged In Numerous Actions That Contradict The Principles Of Judaism, As They Manipulate Judaism As a Pretext To Take The Land, And Without This Manipulation, They Would Have No Legitimate Claim To The Land Of Palestine, And It Is Essential To Recognize That The Zionist Government Only Acts In Its Own Self-interest, Disregarding The Teachings Of Judaism And The Rights Of The Palestinian People. Furthermore, It Is Disheartening To See That Jews Who Speak Up For The Rights Of Palestinians Are Labeled As "Crazy" Or "Friends Of Terrorists" Or "Self-Hating Jews" By Zionists. This Is a Blatant Attempt To Silence Jews Who Dare To Stand Against The Injustice Perpetrated By The Zionists. Let Us Not Forget That Christians, Muslims, And Jews Once Coexisted Harmoniously In Palestine Under Islamic Law. However, Their Peaceful Coexistence Was Shattered By The Aggressive Actions Of The Zionists, Supported By The United Kingdom, The United States, And Their Allies. It Is Crucial To Understand That The Zionists Originate From Europe And Not The Land Of Palestine Itself. They Resort To Deception To Garner Support And Sympathy For Their Cause. It Is a Fallacy To Claim That The Zionist-Palestinian War Is "Complex." In Reality, It Is a Matter Of One Party, The Zionists, Unlawfully Occupying And Oppressing The Other Party, The Palestinians. Those Who Label It As Complex Are Simply Unaware Of The Simple Truth That This War Can Be Resolved By The Zionists Returning The Land To Its Rightful Owners. Neutrality Is Not An Option When People Are Being Persecuted, Tortured, Oppressed, Or Killed. Neutrality Implies Choosing Not To Stand Up For What Is Right, Allowing The Perpetrators Of Violence To Continue Their Actions Without Consequence. It Sends The Message To The Victims That Their Suffering Is Acceptable And That We Do Not Care About What Is Happening To Them. Historically, Christians, Muslims, And Jews Peacefully Coexisted Under Islamic Law During The Ottoman Empire. However, The Emergence Of Zionism In The 1897 Disrupted This Harmony, Leading To The Current Situation In Palestine. World War I Came And Went, And The Allies Emerged Victorious. England Saw The Beautiful Land And Decided, "Hey, This Land Should Be Mine." Yet, Despite Colonization, It Retained The Name Palestine. The Promise Of a Zionist State Was Made By a Man Who Had No Right To The Land. As The Years Passed, More And More Zionists Sought Refuge In Palestine, Which Was Perfectly Acceptable Until Their Intentions Turned Toward Seizing The Land From Its Rightful Owners. The Year 1948 Marked a Turning Point When Israel Forcefully Established Itself As a 'State'. Many Palestinians Were Forced To Flee Their Homes Just To Survive, Denied The Right To Return, The Right To Have a Home, Or The Right To Fight For Their Own Land. Zionist's Expansion Continued, Forming An Apartheid State That Defied Basic Principles Of Humanity And Dignity. To Label This Situation a "Conflict" Or "War" Is Nothing Short Of Insanity. The Time Has Come To Change Our Perspective. One Day, Palestine Will Regain Its Freedom, And It Is Important To Be On The Right Side Of History. Standing Against War Crimes Does Not Make One Anti-Semitic. Let Us Not Be Brainwashed By Those Who Hate Palestine Or Those Who Have Been Manipulated By The Zionists, The United States, And Their Allies. It Is Time For Everyone To See The Truth About The Story Of Palestine. Peace IS The Answer, But The Peace Zionists Are Talking About Is NOT Peace, As They Will Still Be Allowed To Attack, K!ll Palestinians, And Still Be Allowed To Seize Palestinian Homes And Land. Hames Is Made To Stop Zionists, As Zionists IS Why Hames Exist, So It Is On Zionists That Hames K!lls Zionists, Not On The Palestinians Who Are Resisting Zionist Occupation. In Conclusion, I, Too, Yearn For Peace Rather Than War. I Implore The Zionist Government Who Is Responsible For Perpetuating This War, To Listen To The Cries Of Millions And Put An End To The Suffering.
1. God Promised Palestine To Abraham's Children, (Palestinian Jews And Palestinian Arabs Who Are Faithful To God By Following His Commandments) Not To The Ones Who Are From Europe That Became Jews To Claim Palestine And Then Allow Things That God Did Not Allow. 2. The Land Of Palestine Had Inhabitants Who Are Ancient Canaanites Who Existed Before The Arrival Of The Jewish People, And Palestinians Are Descended From Ancient Canaanites And Ancient Arabs, And Archaeological And Genetic Data Strongly Supports That Palestinians Are Descended From Ancient Canaanites And Ancient Arabs, And The Palestinian Population Includes Jews, Christians, And Muslims. Therefore, Palestinians Have Both a Religious And Historical Claim To The Land Of Palestine. On The Other Hand, The Zionists Are Exploiting Judaism As a Means To Acquire Palestinian Land. 3. Instead Of Supporting The Zionist Occupation, The United States Should Play a Role In Facilitating The Establishment Of New Homes For The Zionists In Europe, But NOT a New Zionist State, And If Jews Refrain From Attacking, Killing Palestinians, And Seizing Palestinian Homes, Then Muslims And Jews Can Coexist Harmoniously In Palestine, With Jews Allowed To Worship And Practice Their Religion Under Islamic Law. This Would Be a Much More Just And Peaceful Solution. 4. Why Will Palestinians Give Their Own Land To Someone When The Land Is Palestinian Land. 5. Maybe Arabs Hate Zionists, Because Zionists Are Trying To Take Their Land. 6. The Name, "Palestine" Was Use For This Land For Centuries, And Even The United States Did Call Palestine a Independence Nation Before The Zionists Try To Take The Land.

These are the first video`s I`ve seen of ordinary life in Israel. People going about their daily business as opposed to the usual news reports. Such a beautiful, lush and welcoming country. Nice to see the real Israel. Thanks for the education.
I've just sent this to my church friend. Hope you don't mind. She loves Israel. I'm due to visit for 2 months in the future. To stay with my adopted Jewish families. Who live in Israel. ❤️
Your tour guide needs to slow down a bit. She was speaking at ninety miles an hour. Your own commentary was far more measured. Really good video. Bags of history. Loved the Bougainvillea at 18.40. The comments you made in your prologue were correct. Israel does look like a beautiful country. Thanks for sharing it.
Great shot of Concorde and an amazing view from the hotel balcony. Thank goodness you visited before Oct 7th and you weren`t caught up in the horror that unfolded. Bless you and stay safe.
This is a HORRIBLE book for young teens! The poor girl gets blamed completely and the grown ass man PREDATOR gets away scott free. He abused his power, groomed her and is a peadophile. Kids get crushes on teachers, that's normal. What's not normal is stuff happening cos the teacher abuses their power. Teachers don't 'fall in love' with students. The ones that say they do are nothing but peadophiles using their job as a way to pray and groom children.
agreeeed!! like prue is 14 years old and has been abused by her father her whole life and isolated from society- rax invited her to his home which already oversteps any boundaries but he also grooms her in the process- the book glamorises the whole relationship and because it is for young teens it should be showing the fact that his actions are wrong
I thought the green button up was cute on you. I had reduction surgery last year. I know exactly what you mean about the gap. A remedy could be to use double sided tape to keep the gap closed. I would do that sometimes if I really liked a shirt. Layering was not a good option for me because I felt like it just gave a very bulky look. You picked up some cute things! :)
Who else wanted to kill sam when he beat Alan with the bat? Like he didn’t even look the same after the third hit was dead by the 6th and he didn’t stop bashing his head in until the tenth hit? Like how messed up?
