Autumnal reading vlog 📖🍁 book shopping, magical 1930s house, café trip ~

Hello everyone and welcome to another autumnal reading vlog! This one is a bit a whimsical day in my life. It's autumn here in Australia, and one of my favourite videos I filmed last year was the vlog where I went up to Stirling, did some book shopping, and enjoyed the autumn leaves.

This year, I decided to visit Carrick Hill (and then pop back up to Stirling and the Matilda bookshop again lol bc I am a creature of habit). Carrick Hill is a magical manor house / museum, which was built in the 1930s. It also has a lovely little cafe, so I was able to get some reading done there as well. I had a beautiful, cozy time amongst the autumn atmosphere. I hope you all enjoy the vlog as much as I enjoyed filming it. Take care 💛

Makes me so happy to see vlogs from the Southern Hemisphere right now, love autumn and the darker color that this video has

I cannot, for the life of me, explain how outrageously happy it makes me that someone so eloquent also says "I'm shit at reading maps", I just LOVE IT! :3

Hello,

I never comment on videos. But this morning I woke up from a bad dream, went to YouTube to find something calm, and your vlog was the first thing that came up. So thank you 😊

Thinking about travelling to Australia every autumn so I can have 2 autumns a year 😂 This vídeo is just beautiful, made me want to spent the day reading

I love Jonathan Strange & Mr Norrell, need to find Lud-in-the-Mist now. Thanks for the recommendation and for the vlog 😊

Autumnal, witchy, magical, cozy vibes. So very Christy 🍄🍁🪴 but let's be honest, you could make a 20 minute vlog, or write a 20 page essay, on an old pair of shoes and I would adore it. Thanks for the wonderful content! Times are hard. This is a breath of fresh air. We love to see a happy, healthy Christy. And yes, we can tell you're having the time of your life and I desperately wish I was there with you to experience it!

Love seeing your autumnal videos! 🍂
It’s the start of summer in California and I strongly dislike 103* F heat. 🥵

I finished Lud in the Mist recently, I particularly appreciated how beautiful the writing is, there are real nuggets of poetry in there, as well as some snappy humour that I really enjoyed ^^

Thank you so much for watching! I hope you all enjoy the video~ 😊🍁🍂

When I went to an orientation day camp when I was in my early-teens, we were actually taught to turn to the map so that it's always facing in the direction we're walking. I'm thirty-four and I still do that: it makes everything way easier.

watching this while it's hot and sunny where I am was wonderful!

Your vlogs are some of my favourite, they have such a beautiful vibe and cozy feelings.

I've been so depressed this year but I enjoyed your post thank you for a little peace of mind.

Hi! I loved this video! autumnal views are always my favourite. Is Stirling a neighbourhood in Adelaide? or another town nearby? When you were in Carrick Hill I sort of chuckled to myself. Even though my reading interests are quite different from yours, I always enjoy your vlogs tremendously, especially the ones out and about, because I do share your love for going to bookshops, having coffee, apreciating the autumnal trees, and I hardly ever feel the age gap (I turn 42 this year)... until you said 'imagine sitting here, writing letters, not having access to the internet' and I thought: 'I don't have to imagine it, I can actually REMEMBER it!' xD I lived my first 19 years without internet, it didn't exist! But it's ok (I repeat to myself again and again :P). It's actually funny. xx

So wonderful to see fall leaves! My favorite time of year! What a beautiful home and garden, thanks for sharing! Just ordered Lud-in-the-Mist!

[tonydeluna]

Wow! This was amazing Christy! How extraordinarily beautiful! I fell in love with the 1920s-1930s history architecture vibe and the gallery! So exquisite! Great episode Christy Anne!

Lovely video, simply enjoyable to watch! ❤ That preserved house/museum is so enchanting!!!

[vivienbernhard]

I went up to Stirling and Matilda Bookshop with a friend back in March when I visited Adelaide. Watching this really makes me want to go back, especially now that it's autumn.

Lovely vlog, thanks 💜
It's Spring in France (my favorite season) but I also like Autumn, with the cosy vibes and the beautiful colors...

Oh gosh I love your videos christy, I love country houses/manor houses so much, my very favourite thing, I thought I couldn’t find any here in Australia but now you’ve shown me one in Adelaide, my favourite city in oz. I love all your mythic/fairy tale like book recommendations too - that’s all I like [I recommend Jackie Morris’s books for that]. I love your writing videos and the bookshop bits too. Adore it all. Just really loving your videos today.
