Especially during the pandemic, I believe this site was a lifeline for people to communicate, and share their views out their window with each other, and put a smile on each other’s face❤️

I can’t begin to express my gratitude for the VFMW community! Barbara, thank you for your brilliant idea at such a time as these. And thanks to all the administrators and members, you all have enriched my life with your beautiful pictures! I can still remember when my picture of my corner of the world was displayed on the VFMW wall! So much joy in my heart from such a simple action and yet it was profound. I shall miss all of you but the memories of this time we had together will linger in my heart forever. Merci beaucoup! With great love and affection.💜 Mary Banks, USA

I am so sad to see this wonderful page close but I understand that I was a lot to manage. It lifted my spirits during covid and was something I looked forward to anytime I was on FB. What a extraordinary gift to be able to get a glimpse into the lives of folks lives all around the world. So many amazing views and lovely people. Alls the views were exceptional even tiny terraces that folks had transformed into their own little special oasis. Then there were those that had amazing mountain or ocean views or some lovely terrain in another country. I’ve enjoyed every second of it. Thanks for letting me be a part of this experience.

April 2020. I laid in bed wide awake. My mother and sister were in ICU and Texas was under a deep freeze, with no power. Nurses were carrying water up the stairs to flush toilets. Extra blankets were gathered to keep the patients warm. The Covid units were full and they were trying to transport my sister to one 2 hours away. The roads were covered in ice, the ambulance couldn't make the trip. I was going to loose my sister and mother at the same time to this horrible illness. Finally, my sister was transported. They both miraculously recovered. But during those weeks of worry, and sleepless nights, VFMW was where I went. It helped me survive. It was my peace. The stories of 2020 were amazing. I will always carry it in my memories. It is not the pictures as much as the words. I wish they could all be preserved somehow. It's important. Thank you.

I applied to join View From My Window at the beginning of Covid. I would like to know why I was marginalised by not being allowed to enter the group. Until now it seems, when it is no longer active. During the course of the pandemic I have been lucky enough to move through a variety of amazing places and you’ve missed out on a whole lot of interesting views. But the more important point is to know by what criteria you decide to accept or marginalise someone? The group’s closing text says you saved a few people from depression, but how many more did you push there instead by deciding arbitrarily not to let them join? What exactly were your criteria for deciding who to save and who to leave out in the cold? Just wondering 🤔

I would like to send a huge thank you to all involved with creating VFMW. I sent a photo with my Gorgeous Ragdoll Munchkin Cat in it, I got “thousands” of likes and comments. This definitely took a bit of the sting off lockdown, the photos that were sent in were just amazing!!! The Animals, the beautiful scenery from all around the world, everything about it was worth a look. And what a great way to gather people together from all around the world in the most harmonious way. Some of us chatted on line, had a few funny comments on things. All in all. I loved it and it was quiet relaxing to see all the Beautiful Photos. Take care everyone, be nice to yourself and others. With love from Australia 🇦🇺❤️

Thank you so much for VFMW. It was a bright spot in every day. I have both books, and it is a pleasure to pick up one of the books and turn to any page at random. I enjoy the view again and imagine myself there. Then I read the description. That person became my "new best friend" for the day. Thanks to VFMW, I traveled the world and met so many new people during the shutdown phase.

I am saddened to learn of the closure of The View From My Window having only discovered the group a short time ago. I have so enjoyed seeing the views from across our vast and wonderful world. May the experience and connection not be forgotten. God speed.

This was a journey that began 7 days before my birthday and 3 years later paused 1 day after my birthday.A journey that took me all around the world, showing me every corner.It made me realize that no matter your view it holds a special place in each indivuals heart. I was so greatful to see the not so fancy views of ordinary people whose space is theirs. Thank you Barbara for bringing people together at a time of isolation. You made a difference in many lives.May your life now continue and grow in the way you wish.It was a pleasure to open Facebook and browse through View From My Window.Going to miss it.

VFMW was a breath of fresh air in the midst of the madness of recent years. Thank you to everyone who participated in this project

View from My Window was absolutely one of the BEST things to come out of the pandemic. The idea was absolutely inspired and see the photos from our windows around the world brought us together in a way nothing else could have. I appreciated the honesty of those who posted the "real" view from their window, not just the "pretty" view. I cannot thank you enough for doing this. You brought a world together in a time when we were feeling alone. May God bless you richly!!

View from My Window made the Covid lockdown bearable. I looked forward to seeing the various views from around the word. Thank you Barbara for creating it. I will miss seeing it first thing every morning.

I loved waking up to this page in my fb world. Especially at the beginning, because of COVID, I traveled virtually. I didn't travel before COVID but the lock down made the virtual views and connections sustaining and seeing the reality in other countries brought tears. Especially music from balconies across the globe. History was made.
