[Music] surprise i'm not in New York anymore i moved no I'm just kidding i didn't move it's April Fool's Day it really is i had to participate given my background with my prank videos i booked this trip less than 24 hours ago i was just like "You know what why don't I just do a solo trip to get out of New York for a day and detox from the city?" So here I am in Connecticut i've never been to Connecticut i also didn't know where I wanted to go necessarily so I went where I always
go Tik Tok and I did some research and I found this Airbnb the second I walked into this house I got so much serotonin just being in here i'm lucky that I'm able to like take a trip like this so last minute it's so soothing and so quiet i woke up this morning at like 9:00 packed my bag took the train which was about 2 hours to get here it's 3:00 p.m right now i showered when I got here got a little bit ready and now I don't know like what am I going to do
guys what should we do i am in the city of Connecticut called Mystic i don't know anything about this city let me show you my place that I'm staying in because I want to just spend so much time here in silence and relax okay let's do a little house tour i want to live here okay you walk in to the house this is the bathroom i love it in here it's beautiful i just took a shower i have my makeup and stuff right here that I just got ready with also I love this then we're
making our way to the living room beautiful vated ceilings it's so bright in here it's the perfect day i ended up coming on such a beautiful sunny day you can see my favorite part is the view i am going to cry i'm going to cry okay I'm being dramatic sorry but look how beautiful the view is i am going to be sitting right here when I get back from the downtown area and just journal and read that's my plan and the view is just perfect it's I was going to say it's so serene and then
all of a sudden I'm hearing a drill this is the whole reason I got this Airbnb is because the patio and just the view and then coming back in I just realized there's no kitchen which I guess I didn't really need anyways we all knew I wasn't going to be cooking and then in here we have the bedroom a massive bed all to myself closet right there tv ooh I want to watch Weight Lotus tonight i'm planning on staying in sweats and comfy clothes this trip so yeah that's pretty much the place that's the tour
they also have like a coffee machine oh I didn't even see this please feel free to use the wine glasses to enjoy your complimentary bottle of wine ooh that's so nice should I have some wine tonight guys this kind of makes me want to live out my dreams of owning an Airbnb and renting it out to people i've always wanted to do that i thought it'd be really fun so that's the little tour i want to head out to the little downtown since I'm here I really want to just explore and get a sense for
the city because obviously this is just such a random place i've never been here so I'm really curious and there's some really cool little iconic spots that I've seen i was talking to the guy on the train and he was telling me a couple recommendations that he had for like a coffee shop tomorrow morning and stuff so I think I'm just going to walk around i'm a little hungry get some food i feel like the best part about doing such a last minute trip is that there's just like so much less pressure i don't know
if you book a trip or like plan something in advance sometimes you just like build so much expectation for it and you have such high hopes but with this I have like no expectations cuz I truly booked this like less than a day ago [Music] it's called Pearl yeah cool about it is it feels like a New York restaurant but not hip and trendy just like classy you know [Music] i ended up getting two things i'm really hungry i had like a sandwich on the train but it just didn't fill me up haul time i
got this matcha latte it is a little late in the day for this so that's a little concerning hopefully I can sleep tonight it's really good okay 10 out of 10 i also got this croissant okay that just went into my mouth this place is called Sift Bakery when I stayed at this Airbnb I asked the host if she had any recommendations of coffee shops nearby and she recommended this one why am I eating it like this okay oh that's a lot of chocolate i think I'm going to give this a nine a 9 out
of 10 [Music] so my camera did die so we're on the iPhone now this is bound to happen anyways I've been walking around the downtown area it's so quaint and cute so yeah I walked into a few stores i ended up getting postcards for some of my friends i thought they were really pretty something small for them i'm right next to the bridge i ended up asking one of the store owners that I was talking to and she gave me a list of recommendations on this little card for dinner this was so thoughtful she like
sat down with me and like gave me a whole list but yeah I'm just sitting relaxing on the pier i might get dinner soon [Music] do you have anything available just for one [Music] okay guys dinner was incredible i got the bolognese and it was so good i don't know if it's cuz I was so hungry i don't think it was because the pasta was homemade i also didn't really end up eating alone because the couple next to me was so sweet and they were just chatting with me and they're locals from the area so
they were giving me even more recommendations on things to do and I was telling them I wanted to get ice cream and they told me to go to Mystic Drawbridge Ice Cream which is right across the bridge so I'm going to get that now on my way back home i also saw that Taylor Swift went here when I was doing a deep dive with Selena Gomez in 2013 so for that reason alone I really do need to go [Music] here i'm here i'm just thinking about how Taylor Swift has been here i ended up getting
the Oreo ice cream with chocolate sprinkles my mom was the one who influenced me to start getting chocolate sprinkles cuz she loves them and then it's so funny how you turn into your parents as you get older i didn't believe that until it started happening to me they are better than regular sprinkles she's right like she's right [Music] okay guys all of that food put me in a coma i'm so tired but I'm back now at my little cottage and I'm just relaxing i think I'm going to watch my show which I feel like is
everyone's show White Lotus i've got on it and I can't stop watching it i'm obsessed with it so I think I'm going to watch that before I go to bed i'm probably going to go to bed early because I want to wake up really early and I want to do a lot of fun things tomorrow really just like around here i want to go get coffee i want to come back journal read and just have a wholesome morning and day so I think I'm just going to chill tonight and relax this is my favorite part
of the day is watching this show after the show I'm going to be sad when this is over i'm going to need a replacement show so let me know if you have any Rex also thank you guys for the YouTuber Rex in my last video I asked you guys if you had any recommendations of YouTubers and you guys sent me so many in the comments so I've started watching a couple and I'll tell you guys who I like really like if I find someone [Music] [Applause] [Music] good morning guys i had the best night's sleep
i'm not just saying that well I'm really actually not just saying that i was kind of scared before I went to bed last night i like started freaking out because I heard something outside and then I got so scared I like facetimed my parents my boyfriend and it ended up being just fine i was dramatic okay I was dramatic but I did end up sleeping so well so I'm happy about that and I'm wearing my cute PJs guys look these pajamas have my initials on them actually some of you guys I know think my last
name is Serena my last name is not Serena my middle name is Serena sydney Serena Prepsky so these are my full initials anyways this morning I really want to just have a slow cozy morning i want to read my book i wanted to journal i know it is a little bit chilly but I still want to sit outside with like a blanket right there and just enjoy the scenery so I think this is what I'm going to do these are my books of choice today well really one book my friend Franny wrote this book and
it's a poetry book so I'm excited to sit down and actually read this i'm so proud of her and then I also have my journal that's [Music] it heat heat [Music] okay guys i lasted a little bit out there and then I started to get frigid i want to do the rest of my journaling and reading and stuff inside but I do have to check out at noon and I think it's like 9:00 a.m now 9:30 and I'm getting really hungry i get really hungry in the mornings like the first thing I think about usually
is like what I'm going to eat i think I'm gonna go quickly grab like some coffee and breakfast up the street and then come back i don't want to like be there for too long i just want to bring it back here so that means I have to get dressed which sucks cuz I love my pajamas actually no i could just put my long coat over this and no one would even know i'm going to do that i don't want to [Music] change okay guys i'm back in my pajamas still no one even noticed mostly
because there's not there wasn't many people around except for my Uber driver and I had the same Uber driver twice i ended up going to this cafe because the owner of this Airbnb recommended this specific cafe as well and like her options i'm really basically moral of the story i feel like I'm really going off local recommendations for this trip they know better than me you know i'm just visiting and everything so far honestly guys like I was thinking about this last night the food has been really good here like coming here is not for
the food but I just was like "Wow the ice cream was so good my dinner was so good this is already really good." I did start eating it this is what I got a latte with whole milk and vanilla delicious and then I got this egg sandwich blt basically actually basically actually I'm already thinking of when I'm going to come back here next i want to come back in the summer like with someone i think bringing someone though would be fun for the second time not alone again i have friends no I do i actually
Okay I actually have friends guys i feel like all these alone videos make it look like I just have no friends but I do i do have some great friends my friends are so good at sipping their drinks and it really bothers me well it doesn't bother me it just like I wish that I was like that but I'm not i'm just not when I get my coffee or matcha 2 seconds later it's gone so I'm trying to be better at that let me know if you've ever done that transformation journey i don't know how
to be like that i don't know how to do that it's so pretty i could cry i don't even want to put music on there's an Alexa but I just Oh no it's going to trigger it cuz I just said that out loud i just don't even want to put anything on i need it constant stimulation sometimes is not good and I think sometimes you need a break especially cuz we're always on our phones and I just think breaks from those are so needed otherwise I will probably go insane bailey's like "You already have." Why
am I just thinking of everything that Bailey's going to say to this and like preemptively like guessing what he's going to write let's Let's read and drink [Music] coffee okay guys I got dressed put on a little makeup i have this shirt underneath which kind of looks weird but it's because I'm going to a dinner like right when I get back to New York that felt so fast this fell way too fast i'm telling you if I didn't have this dinner tonight I would have booked an extra night just because I wish I had more
time here but it was so nice and so beautiful and definitely kind of exactly what I needed it was a great solo trip i think I made the most of my time here especially just getting to know like a new city and a new town and I'll definitely be back in the summer everyone told me that I met here is come back in the summer you need to be here when it's like super warm so anyways that's going to be all for today for the vlog i'm literally just going to be sitting on a train
for 3 hours so thanks for watching let me know if you liked this i hope it was fun for you guys just as fun as it was for me but I love you guys and I will see you in my next vlog bye [Music]
