VISITING MONTECITO & LAS VEGAS - The USA Diaries 

Thank you for highlighting our beautiful Santa Barbara. So glad you had a wonderful time.🌞🇺🇸🌞

Hello, Paula! What a lovely video. The next time you’re in California, come to SoCal and check out The Huntington Library and Gardens. 200 acres of gardens, a massive library, and a historical mansion full of priceless art like the Gutenberg Bible and the Blue Boy. 💚

What a beautiful garden and home your brother in law has. Your trip looked lovely.

Hello I recently discovered your website and I've watched your videos and I found them very inspirational, I love your elegance and the way you carried yourself. You have inspired me. Thank you

Dear Paula, thank you for the wonderful video and wonderful music. It is a pleasure to watch, because it is so important how you look, your long dress, your hair tied with a ribbon, how you decorate the table .... all this is part of your world and soul. Wonderful garden and lovely picnic. All this is a wonderful world, thank you for sharing with us!!

I absolutely love your Channel. The music selections are THE BEST. I don’t know how you piped up but I am so glad! I live in State of Tennessee. I am a former Journalist, mainly feature articles. I was married to Career Officer in United Marine Corps in Era of Nam. It was the days of tea parties, Formal Dinner Parties, Multiple Events. A different day an Time that was known as Camelot. Watching your videos brought such memories to me. My modeling was during my University years as we had A Modeling Squad. I attended a Women’s University in the South. We were to participate and keep all the Social Graces of yesteryear. So much of these traditions have been discarded all over America. Savor all your experiences that you live day by day. By chance have you ever “ pressed flowers” in Journals. It’s a lost Art. Too long comment. Enjoy your Life.

Paula, you're wonderful! I held my breath but you managed to even make Vegas enchanting. I did get your book and it's very inspiring. Thank you for sharing your joyful life! 💐 💐 🍃 ☘️ ❤️ 💙

That was an absolutely delightful stroll with you, with so much packed into it, what a joy. Wishing you all the very best for 2023.

You certainly went from one extreme to the other with visiting Las Vegas to the beautiful and tranquil gardens I live in Texas. So happy you got to visit our country. I got to visit England a couple of years ago, and it was so beautiful ❤️

Thank you for taking me with you on your vacation! What a wonderful time to spend with your son and other family! You are certainly soooo blessed!

I love your adventures!!! I live in New York and Montecito, California is beautiful!!! However, not as beautiful as the English countryside ❤️ Happy New Year

Happy New Year Paula and family and Lady Dashwood. Thank you for a lovely video as always. Peace and Blessings in the New Year!

Happy New Year Paula. Your book was one of my Christmas presents this year and I’m looking forward to reading it on the chilly/rainy days of February in Tennessee. I’m so glad you made it to Lotusland. What a magnificent place with a great story. I went to graduate school near Montecito and made sure I soaked up every beautiful part of that area.

Hello what a nice place Montecito. I visit St. Barbera ones. And fantastic gardens you visit. Thank so much.

Hello Paula, I just found your channel 3 days ago, so pleased, you are so delightful and I just want to wish you all the best, I subscribed straight away after the first video I watched. Thank you so much for sharing your holiday it looks amazing.

I got married in Las Vegas! Then we went on our ‘European honeymoon’ that is to say, we went to all the landmarks in vegas😂

As a country girl from Massachusetts, I would put Las Vegas at the bottom of a list of places to visit, but I enjoyed seeing it through your eyes.

It was beautiful

Love the choice of travels and music. Your delightful Spirit makes me relax. THANK You Beloved.

Lovely holiday. Happy New Year.

That was a beautiful video - loved the Lotusland Gardens segment!🥰

Thanks Paula for sharing your lovely holiday! I didn't want the video to end!

It looks like a great vacation(holiday) as you called it.........safe travels...........MINDY

Thank you so much for this beautiful post! It brought back so many wonderful memories of living in Montecito.

It was lovely that you visited Montecito 🌼🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌷🌷🥀🌺🌺🌺

A wonderful video. My husband and I had a great visit to that part of the world and really enjoyed our trip. Happy New Year from Jersey Channel Islands.

As always thank you for sharing. Happy New Year.

The music alone is worth the watch perfect .

I can hardly wait till your next video. I do enjoy all your video so relaxing and fun, adventurous and informative 💝

It's lovely to visit the beautiful gardens this time of year!!!!!Here in Southern Ontario our winter has been cold ,rainy with alot of fog and little sunshine. Thank you for taking us along with you 🙂🍁 in Southern Ontario it's been a chilly, rainy winter,with little sunshine.

Wonderful! Thanks for sharing!

I've been subscribed to your channel for a long time! Your videos are still so enjoyable.

Wow Lotusland looks amazing. I love the topiary. Thank you for taking us along.

This was so awesome. I enjoyed the views.

I look forward to your videos ❤❤❤such a sweet elegance❤thank you!

Such a beautiful relaxing holiday

Wonderful! 💜

I loved Santa Barbara and Montecinto, so your video today was right down my alley. My trip to Lotusland, was certainly a highlight, when I was there the Palm Trees were propagating, so all the lessons I studied in Botany class many years ago were acting themselves out in nature. The tour guide was wonderful and a true Horticulturalist. I am visiting The Bay Area in June for a family holiday.. I will look into staying at The Rosewood, since it is on the Beach. Thank you for the tip.

It's always such a pleasure watching your videos. Have a wonderful day

I just came across your channel to discover adventure for life and beauty. I believe a bit of quiet time is needed to catch up on some videos. California is my home state and I love everything. New Subscriber!🌷❤️🌷

Very enjoyable.

Wow, I live in Southern California and I’ve not heard of Lotusland! I hope you can make it to The Huntington in San Marino sometime, if you’ve not been there yet. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks so much for this wonderful look a Montecito, CA (in exquisite Paula style).☀️🌊 I stayed at the Bellagio Hotel, overlooking that fabulous “dancing” fountain; but I never thought of a trip combining the theatrics of Vegas with the natural serenity of Montecito ⭐️💡! What a wonderful vacation for all the members of your beautiful family!❤ Happy New Year, Paula!🎉

Paula…..thank you so much! I feel as if I’ve had a vacation. 🥰

Thank you Paula your video is so nice. So glad you were able to visit the US and had a great time! I must get to the English countryside soon!

Happy New Year! I’m new here and have enjoyed your videos and all the charm of the English Countryside. I live in a large development in the middle of nowhere in New Jersey, USA. I have always had a container veggie garden but am thinking about a real flower garden this spring/summer. Will be purchasing your book soon. I have traveled to Las Vegas on numerous occasions and will be delighted to visit other venues besides the casinos. Thanks for sharing your trip!❤

So beautiful, thank you. Lotusland Gardens is so peaceful and like a lovely dream. I hope you visit New York one day. We have beautiful beaches and gardens here too! Then perhaps I could meet you !

Hey Paula...Happy New Year... What can I say...love your style, you remind me so much of my friend Cynthia... Hopefully, we will get to visit your side of the world to say "hey"... Glad you liked the US...till then, please keep these videos coming...Your friend from South Georgia in the good ole USA😊

This video helped to lift my spirit! Thanks!

Your videos are always so amusing, interesting, inspiring! I have been in las Vegas in 1994 with my daughters, then 7 and 6! We stayed at the Caesar's, which I may say did not impress me! I found it a little vulgar. There was a concert of Tom Jones but my daughters preferred the Chinese restaurant with the fortune cookies! We had lunch at the Bellagio, which I found elegant , with my aunt. The Lake Tahoe we visited afterwards was more relaxing, especially with two little girls!

Thank you happy New Year’s to you. God bless you.🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟💯🙏🏼

A ja podziwiam nie tyljo to co Pani robi, ale te sukienki. Piekne !

😊

I so enjoyed this beautiful video, thank you so much

A very relaxing vlog. Thanks for sharing.

Very glad you had a wonderful time

This was such a gorgeous video! Thanks so much for sharing it with us. ❤

This was so lovely, Paula!!💐

What a lovely find of a channel ❤

Muy HERMOSO!! Felíz año nuevo?!💠

Thank you so much for the view of the Gardens and all their Glory! Thoroughly enjoyed your cameo in "Riches", you were perfectly cast for the role! Hope to see more of your Acting ventures and Cheers to a wonderful New Year!

❤

You would have loved New Orleans pre hurricane Katrina days.

I love your voice. It's so elegant. My voice sounds deep to my own ears but in reality it's a high pitched voice which I hate! I much prefer deeper voices like yours! But alas it's one of those things I can't do anything about.

Hi Paula, Just wanted check on your in Monticello. Are they okay? Praying for them. 🙏🏼

Nice video Thanks

Love your outfit

Where do you get your lovely music from? I tried Shazamming ‘it had to be you’ and couldn’t identify it

Beautiful. Where is the gingham skirt from?

Would he adopt me please 💗
