Travel Vlogs?

Last year, as some of you may know, I went away to Russia and Greece for 4 weeks. This year, I'm going to Russia, quite possibly a bunch of Scandinavian countries and other random places, except in the span of 5 weeks.
Now, 5 weeks without thatsophiakid videos will be terribly impossible so I'm going to still be getting videos up in that time. However, I don't know if you guys would like to see me vlog and film in all of these beautiful places. I don't know if you guys think those videos should go on another channel or if they should all be on thatsophiakid. I'll try my hardest to bring a laptop with me, but knowing my mom, she will most definitely not let me do that haha
So let me know, would you be interested in travel vlogs and videos of different parts of the world?
Travelling is my greatest passion, so I would more than love to share that with you all.

The price of beauty

What makes humans (homo sapiens)  unique? One of the things, is our love and desire to be beautiful and see beautiful things. We simply treasure beauty and whether we realize it or not, spend hundreds and hundreds of dollars to look beautiful. I came across this thought in the shower, weirdly enough. I thought, "how much money do I spend a year on my appearance?" "Do I spend more than $100?" Which seems funny to some people, that spend thousands in just a month on things like extensions and surgical procedures.
Why do we spend all that money to look good?
What would we look like if we didn't care?
What would society look like if we all didn't care?
How much do YOU think you spend?
