We love days with Mark! Your videos provide such a warm and cosy feel. Even just chatting away in your flat, making rocky road or choosing a festive film! Don’t doubt yourself because you’re fabulous 🎄🩷😊
Mark, I'm never really a commenter but my Mum passed suddenly October 2020, she was everything that made Christmas so magical for me. It will be the 4th Christmas without her this year and you have no idea how much these videos help me to feel festive and how many laughs you give me, so thank you so much. I don't think you understand how much you mean to those who watch you and just how inspiring you are! especially in terms of the solo travelling; I have extreme agoraphobia so it truly shows me that anything is possible and one day I could be capable of that too. Sending you lots of love 💖
Still with you! As Zoe would say “ You got this!” I’m enjoying your vlogmas so much! Keep going!! Dying at the part when you saw the rat!😂Cant wait for tomorrow’s vlog.
Just watching this with a candle on, sat in my rocking chair (Ik proper old people stuff) with my weighted blanket and a brew. Felt naff all day but this just cheered me up, thanks Mark❤
It really touched me when you talked about learning to love your own company. I started embracing it even more around the same time as you and it's honestly brought me to a better place. I adore the small circle of people I have in my life, but I also appreciate my alone time and the amount of things I've achieved in my life due to pushing myself out of my comfort zones. You are doing amazing and I'm so proud of you. You are a true inspiration to loads of people. I booked my first solo trip abroad for next year which I'm so excited for ☺
Mark your videos with you just by yourself are so awesome. It’s like I’m spending time with just you. I would watch you up to 100 yrs old..after that I think I wouldn’t be around to watch then.🤣 That was a beautiful Christmas tree 🎄 & with the snow ❄️ it would put anyone in the mood. Have a wonderful & fun week! 👍✌️🤓💚🥰😁🫶🤪
I’m so happy you started vlogmas MARK!! Watching you enjoying your time with your own company inspires me to the top, I just love how you are comfortable, living it, loving it🤍🤍
Love you Mark! ❤ Love your positivity and pure soul. Love how brave and strong you are to share your vulnerabilities and at the same time be so authentic, wise and acing the true meaning of life. You are amazing and we love watching you. Onwards and upwards 💞💫😊🤞💪
I loved your chat in the park. I suffer massively with agoraphobia and mental health problems, but i also hate being alone. I hate the thought of being alone but with my illnesses i’m alone alot. I mainly watch yours & zoes videos because it genuinely makes me feel like im with someone. It makes me feel so proud of you that not only do you now feel confident & comfortable enough to vlog solo, but the fact youve come so far in your solo travels too. We love you for you, so it makes me very glad that you are finally loving you for you too❤
Same here, I struggle with it everyday but I feel less alone when watching Marks vlogs. This is such a nice and cozy side of youtube. And we need it! ❤
Same here, Hate being alone a lot of the time, but feel so anxious around people !!!!! Crazy. I always put Mark or Zoe on in the background for comfort. I find it really hard doing things alone but Mark makes me want to try more. ❤
Hi Mark! I used to really struggle with being alone too, but like you I've learned to really enjoy my own company and it's just the best feeling! I feel like I used to hang out with people I didn't really like just because I didn't want to be on my own, and it feels so good not having the need to do that anymore. Thank you for your videos and always being so open!
I feel like I've gotten to know and understand you so much better already. I love when you talked about the small things and finding joy there. Its so lovely tosee you being vulnerable and real
I actually love videos of it being just you! It feels more personal and that it’s just us hanging out together! ☺️ You are sooo funny btw 😂 Love you and your videos! 💕
I’m always on my own and sometimes I’m ok sometimes I don’t love it, and I LOVE watching your videos and you just being you on your own mulling around your house makes me feel like I have company and I can just take you around my house with me and it feels like I’m not so alone ❤️
I love watching the segments where you speak so candidly about being in tune with yourself. Congrats on being comfortable with you. As you said, it's a privilege to live and to be comfortable with who we are. Loving vlogmas! That Christmas tree and the snow was beautiful.
The last part of this, you being so vulnerable and opening up about spending time on your own. I’m someone who finds it so hard - so you explaining how you feel so content in that space now is just so gorgeous to here. Inspiring to know that one day I’ll get there too. Thank you for doing vlogmas this year, I’ll be watching everyday of course!! 💖✨ X
Thank you for sharing that part about being alone. As someone who has had bad lack and terrible friendships and now is alone, I've learned to like my own company.Yes sometimes it's hard not having a social life or go to places and be able to do things that require a friend / friendship group but I hate it when people think just because you're alone, you're lonely. Liking your own company and being okay with being alone is a great strength that not many people have or struggle to find. I do really hope people find joy in being alone. That's when you really know yourself and be happy with who you are!
Mark your just the best! Anything you do during the day is fine by me. Don’t worry about your content during vlogmas. You make the simple things feel so special . I loved seeing around London with the Christmas tree and lights. The snow fall was v cozy. You have a real gift for , making people who watch you , feel like a friend. I spend alot of time on my own too. So I know what you’re saying, but when we don’t judge ourselves too harshly , we can have a great time alone . Your daily vlogs give me great company . So thanks so much for all you do . Xx ❤
The part of life where you don’t mind you is one of the best! So glad you’ve realized that. You’re a true gem Mark. ❤️ Also I got a good laugh in when you said, “dry Poo”! I’ll be saying that one from now on! 😂
Aw I’m absolutely loving your Vlogmas, Mark! I love the casual days like this! Some other Vlogmases are really over the top and unachievable but you’re making this a really lovely experience ❤
I'm going through a hard breakup right now and watching your videos are the highlights of my days. You bring me so much comfort. Will forever keep watching you and your Mark days! I have a lot of solo days too and I love my own company...nothing wrong with it
❤❤Yes I will watch you even if you vlog older then 40, I am turning 40 next year and I love your spirit and content Mark, keep on living the dream I am here on the otherside of screen sheering your future coffee shop on !!!! all the way from Capetown South Africa Bianka❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Mark I absolutely adore you, im learning to love my own company as well as being on my own with my baby while my partner works coz it’s such a hard job doing it every day alone until he comes home which is when my little boy goes to bed😢 also died laughing when you said “might put some dry poo in my hair”😂 I know you meant shampoo but it made me giggle ❤
I am loving these videos. I started my first full time job a few months ago and have been suffering from massive anxiety trying to get settled into the full time working schedule. It has been a really tough few weeks, but these videos are helping me enjoy chistmas
Me! I am going to watch your videos when you are in your 40's! I love your energy and personality! I especially love it when you are Zoe get together, you guys are really funny together.
Lol you should make fifteens next time. They’re the Irish version of rocky road but with fifteen ingredients. Also Mark I’d literally watch you talk about anything ❤
Mark I will watch you when you’re 80!!! I love your videos, you always make me laugh and make me feel less bad about enjoying more of the simpler, cozy, weird things in life 🩷
I'm so happy to see you this often! I know it must be so much work for you but I love it so much! I would love for it to last forever ☺️🩷 I'm doing well but, don't know why I can't "feel" Christmas this year. Don't know why😓 Usually is my favourite time of year, but I'm not feeling it😭 You help a lot though. Looove youuuuu Mark!😙😙😙🩷🩷🩷
Watching a vlog of just you is brilliant because you talk to your audience like we are an old friend and i love that. Im a solo mum and so i spend alot of time on my own too but vlogs like yours keep me going. Never stop being you xxx
I love how Mark always takes time to ask how we're doing in the vlogs. I'm excited for the release of Wonka on Friday, but I'm in 2 minds about going and need perspectives and advice. My BF has said he's so happy to go with me, but I'm not sure if I should go see it. My mum has been quite ill with her chemo treatment and had round 5 on monday and really does need help with household bits and pieces round the house and mostly the food shop on friday Should I stay in and help my mum out or should I go out with my BF for the day and watch the film?
Thanks for the insight I'm just scared of coming as self centred and feel guilty for doing so when my dad is working from home and too busy my brother is working out the home and I've stopped working a month or so ago to help my mum so she feels less alone
i havent been able to catch up your & zoe's vlogs for the last 4 yrs (college life) but lately i've been binge watching ALL the vlogs and honestly december has been exhausting so far and your vlogmas makes my day:') i love having something to look forward to everyday until christmas and you give me just the good vibes that i need to get through the day.
Your videos are so comforting! I will still watch when you are 40, this was just brilliant, love being in London this time of year! The theatre show looked good as well :) Can't wait to watch day 5! Even if you don't get up to much, we will still watch
Always be you and don’t change. Personally love those realistic days you find contempt in. The little things are what make life worth living✨ If you ever struggle during vlogmas just know that’s okay, there’s this saying about your 100% will look different everyday and to focus on just giving that 1%. Aka don’t have too high expectations of yourself and just let yourself be and enjoy. If it’s a 5 minute vlog so what, as long as YOU had a great day. Lots of love, take care Mark :)
your vlogmas has really been my festive and cozy light this time of year! I recently moved haflway across the continental U.S. away from all my family (immediate and extended) and am on my own! my car also broke down on the roadtrip over so I've been cabin-fevered into my new place. I LOVE this time of year, and this has really helped me stay in spirits
i wish you could make a vlog like this everyday of the year. id watch every single one. So cozy and so normal. like i literally walk around oaks park. youre so normal never lose that!
aww mark im from australia and my mum and dad met in that exact spot you were sitting at in the punch and judy! So nice to see it again :) you are smashing vlogmas and and are just a joy to watch
You're a lovely guy Mark inside and out. I Love all of your vlogs and will be watching when you're 40. They bring so many laughs and comfort my way. Spending time on your own is a great thing and many more people should try it. I Love your flat and it's definitely a bit of me. It was sad to see you getting emotional when you put the tree up and it reminded you of your aunt but I'm sure she would have been looking over you. Keep up the vlogmas videos. Thank you
im always going to love watching you. the feeling of growing up together and experiencing life together is so comforting because it can be so lonely sometimes. you help me feel less alone. im so greatful for that. sending you so much festive love 🎄🎅
I live in a small market town and it’s honestly so nice. Especially this time of year the festivities are magical! I’m on the outskirts of the Cotswolds too, the coffee shops are so cosy and the pubs are full of the locals 🥰
Hello from Australia and from a fellow 18th October baby! I look forward to these videos everyday, thank you for taking over the vlogmas crown. You are amazing and give off such a positive vibe. Much love!
I'm so happy you're doing vlogmas! I'm trying to keep my mind off of my negative thoughts right now and this helps keep me on track! It's fun to just hang out and feel festive and gets me excited for the day! So thanks I appreciate you! Much love from California ❤
Beautiful work. I live in a town in southwest Colorado called Durango. It used to be really small, but it's been growing due to California and Texan moving in.. Drugs are often the drama. But I have fond memories of not locking the front door as a child. And I'd watch you as an older person!! ❤❤❤❤
You have learner such huge life lessons early on that it will set U up for an amazing life! Emotional intelligence and self awareness, love is THE thing! ❤❤❤
That big Christmas tree in the square is GORGEOUS!! I actually think it's prettier than the one in Rockefeller Center in NYC! (That might be un-American for me to admit 😆) So glad you're out there having fun, Mark ☺️ And thank you for sharing it with us! Your vlogs are so cozy and comforting.
Some of my favourite time with myself is sitting down eating dinner catching up on your videos! I've never had too much issue with my own company as I've grown up an only child with a single parent but I've always been surrounded by friends and family and lovely people. At one point my anxiety and mental health was so bad i struggled even being in a room on my own but that was less about enjoying my own company and more about...the anxiety of becoming completely catatonic with fear or illness and dying with no one there to help me....but that's yknow...one for therapy 🤣🤣
HAHA I have the same Converse, and you are absolutely correct, I am also slippin and slidin, they do not have any grip at all😂 Loving Vlogmas Mark, youre doing amazing!!!❤
I love your solo trips as well as you spending time alone cause I feel like there is not many creators that show the non-extravagant times. As a 20 year old who is trying to learn enjoying spending time alone (compared to all my peers having the most full lives with parties and activities, it sometimes feel lonely) I really look up to you and love that you are showing everything as it is
as someone who spends alot of time on their own also, it's great that you spoke about it as i relate to that alot. keep going mark, you are doing great!!
First of all, thank you so much for doing Vlogmas! Love your explanations for how fragrances smell 👃🏽 While I like the idea of a small town but I don’t wanna let go of my city life yet 😂
Hi mark from a new friend love love love you you couldn't be more sweeter could you ooh my I am so uplifted by your kind heart . Thank for being so lovely happy holidays 😊 ❤
