Join me on my wanders to some of the most unique places in Ireland, Europe and the World!
Instead of a lot of talking/background music, I like to immerse myself into the environment I am in, including all the natural sights and sounds. Minimal talking allows you to experience all of the same. Its all about the simple pleasures and living in the here and now. Sometimes you just gotta wander ;)

Great video. I love these fan videos especially of proper football clubs with history and tradition. Great seeing their loyal fans turn out. This is what football is to me, not the over priced and over hyped premier league. This is proper support.
Appreciate that, thanks. I do enjoy the Premier League but I tend to agree with you. Love visiting these stadiums with their loyal fanbases. Great experience and value for money when compared to the top tier.
That must have been some great memories. Fair play with the academy, you must be v talented to be able to play at that level. 😎⚽️ thanks for watching and reaching out, love hearing about peoples own experiences 👍
Thanks for reaching out. It's not cheap per se but definitely cheaper than the larger French resorts like Chamonix/Les Deux Alpes etc. Also with the train connection, it is relatively easy to get to from Paris, which helps for sourcing cheaper flights. Have a video on that, too, if your planning on doing the same. For us, we chose Serre Chevalier for the quieter vibe, no crowds on the ski lifts/slopes and a relaxing but still entertaining apres ski compared to the madness of other well-known resorts! Overall we felt we got a lot of value for money compared to other ski trips we have done. 👍 wherever you decide, hope you enjoy your next ski holiday 🍻⛷️
Being a Fulham fan since 1966 I’ve seen us in all 4 divisions,although not in the bottom division for long ,,, first went to the valley with Fulham in 1968 and we we lost 5-3 ,, good club Charlton and like us at Fulham no glory hunters.
Hey Raymond, fantastic comment. You have been through it all man and still a true fan. Also..Craven Cottage, what a unique and beautiful stadium you have. I can't wait to experience it and film a matchday there someday in the future 🤞🍻
Greetings mate 🍻 🇲🇽 thanks for watching and I hope you manage to experience Anfield in future. 💪 I bet the football fans and atmosphere in Mexico is amazing as well 😎⚽️
Hi! We are going to Salou in 3 weeks. We would like to go on a day trip to Barcelona. Where can I find the train schedule from Salou to Barcelona and back? Please let me know. Best regards
Hey Kris, great idea man. Such a beautiful city. Your best bet would be to head to the official Spanish rail link here - www.renfe.com/es/en Put in "Salou - Port Aventura" as origin and "Barcelona Sants" for the destination and put in the date your thinking for the day trip and it will give you the current train schedules you will need to plan it all out. 👍 For our first trip to Barca, we only had one day as well and went on a hop on, hop off bus tour. We got a ton done in the short time available to us, so if it is your first time, might be worth checking out if sightseeing is your thing. Hope it helps and hope you have a great vacation 👍🍻
@@gottawander Hop on, hop off bus tour is a good idea for one day trip :) The only thing we have to see for ourselves is Camp Nou - unfortunately it is under reconstruction but it is possible that the Barca museum will be open. This is my son's dream :) Thank You! 😀
Absolutely, you definitely won't be stuck for a drink in this stadium. Jeez, hard to believe they ran out of beer by half time!! Hopefully they have fixed that now because having a few beers and enjoying the game is one of life's small pleasures ⚽️🍻
That's a pity, you would think it be very popular in the summer months. I wonder if that's common all year round nowadays so 🤔 thanks for watching and sharing that info.
Hi Paul. I've only just found this. It is thoroughly interesting for me because Chicago has really changed since I was there in my youth. You have seen far more than I did but I bet I saw more bars and gogo bars than you did. Thanks for posting, Paul.
Lol, cows to milk!!😆 I could have done given how early it was! I was taken aback myself when they told me the time they were serving breakfast to the room! I could have skipped it, but I felt it was better to show what was on offer for that room type. Thanks for watching and for the comment, got a good laugh from it👍
To be honest I think for first class travel it’s pretty average, compared to ferry travel up until say 20 years ago things have improved greatly when we were treated pretty much like cattle just squeeze as many in as possible a lot more civilised now, I’ve used ferry travel mainly between Ireland and Britain but I’ve used the harwich,Dover and Folkestone route many times but crossing the Irish Sea is for some reason considerably more expensive than crossing the English Channel, nice to see this crossing though, good post
Very nice vlog, good to watch and I found it very relaxing. Sorry, but my only bit of criticism here is why the obsession with everything has to be new, new, new and anything that you consider is outdated has to be pointed out to the viewer. Let us decide for ourselves what is new and old.
Hey David, Thanks for the comment, and good question! 😁 I mix it up overall. There are vids on the channel where I talk as well. If I think a video will come across better only using natural sounds, I will go for the subtitles. I also find a lot of people talk into the camera too much rather than actually showing what they are filming, so I try to keep that side to a minimum myself too! Just my own preference preference 👍
Think you need to research the worlds largest natural ports. As far as Im aware I think Poole is second to Sydney, not Cork, and apparently, Cork does not even take 3rd. Maybe im wrong. Enjoyed the vid tho.. Cheers
Glad you liked the video. Yeah my research comes from official sources such as the ports own websites but I cans see why you question it because a quick Google search leads to a lot of conflicting information.
Excellent review best Ive ever seen of a ferry crossing. We travel on the Rosslare Bilbao route and in the Commodore Lounge there is food and drink available all day 7am to 11pm. Great review thanks
That's a great comment to receive Joseph. I appreciate it. Really glad you enjoyed. Wow, it seems the commodore lounge on that route has a way better offering! It will give me a good excuse to try it out sometime 😉
Same sentiments here man. Hopefully they will manage to at some point. Hope you enjoy the start of the season this weekend! Thank god league football is nearly back 😁⚽️
Hi Paul, I hope you both are doing great! I’m a long-time subscriber and the nephew of Uncle DaiSlark. I really enjoyed your video and appreciate the effort you put into it. The visuals were great, and it’s clear you both have a passion for what you’re doing. I think adding more conversation between you two could make your content more engaging. For example, sharing your thoughts and feelings on the way to the rugby match, discussing the stadium entrance, ticket prices, and your experiences at the pub would be interesting. These interactions would help keep your audience connected to your journey. Overall, I think more personal interactions and conversations can make your videos even more enjoyable. Keep up the great work! Best wishes to both of you. Kumar
Hi Bhai. Funny to meet you here. Personally I find Paul's narratives perfect and did you notice how clearly, concisely and respectfully he speaks ? Some of the travel vloggers are cocky, overconfident and disrespectful towards the local people. I hate that. I won't mention any names but you will know one English vlogger who fits. I hope that one day Paul and his wife will visit Nepal and write several terrific vlogs from that amazing country.
Rugby was my sport in school. Rugby and squash. I wasn't really good at rugby but I was at squash. I'm feeling hungry after seeing your burger and chicken pieces. Thanks for another great vlog, Paul.
underrated stuff. im sure if the ticket prices would be lower this wouldve been sold out. too many empty seats cause of the high prices probably. but i think thats just how things are in the US, right?
The US is definitely an expensive place to visit. Was pleasantly surprised with how good the football was, though. As you said, I definitely feel it's underrated over there and there is a lot of room and potential to grow the fanbase for this sport. Thanks for watching mate 👍⚽️
Commodore= first, Club = business 2 or 4 berth = premium economy and reserved seat = economy is how I sort it. My snobbish self very much prefers Commodore, but I can get by with Club. 😅 Cheers! Great video 😊
Premier League standard stadium in a part of London that has no team in the PL. Be great to see them rise again but had a terrible few years with a succession of bad owners. Lived in the area for 20 years not too far from where your lodgings were
Absolutely Jay, had a really bad spell but hopefully they will see a revival in the near future. Really enjoyed my short stay there, it's a lovely area so you picked a nice spot 😁⚽️
As a Los Angeles native I really enjoyed this video and what was captured. Believe it or not a lot of people in the United States have a poor image of LA in their heads. I think it’s a very beautiful place, great video
Hiiiiiiiiiii Paul. I've been waiting for this next USA blog. I really enjoyed this great blog because I've never been to this part of the USA. I sure wouldn't want to sit on any high ledges in that area. I suppose there are lots of rattlesnakes there too. Waiting for your next blog now, Paul. Will it be from Chicago or before that ? Millions of best wishes from Dai (Anthony)
Hi Dai, yeah after being there, I can definitely see why it's one of the natural wonders of the world, the depth in some areas is just crazy. There was some places on the trip where you would see signs about rattlesnakes, so I definitely kept my eyes open when walking around 😁 That's nearly it for my USA videos, I took some time to chill out and enjoy the drive when I was on route 66 without filming too much which was nice. I might have enough footage to do a short Chicago vid so we will see if that can happen! Thanks for watching as always. 🤝
Ah cheers mate, thanks for reaching out and for watching the vid. LAFC have really hit form since I've been as well., Watching all the highlights and some games where I can. It's brilliant stuff. Hope ye keep it going 🖤💛
@24:06 you can totally tell they went above and beyond to protect the food from people's coughing and sneezing unlike those other cheap places where everything is exposed. Well done Brittany Ferries, Class A service.
It’s expensive because it’s Vegas. All of the big market tourist areas are more expensive because the entertainment. Montreal and Toronto are twice as expensive to see a game. I’m in Tampa I can usually see games for half that.
oh wow, what hit me? What a video. Hi Paul. This was a real experience for me and big thanks for posting. Glad you had such great experiences in the USA. My visits and stays in the USA have been really tame in comparison. Right now we are totally engrossed in the Euros and tonight we saw the Portugal vs Georgia game. I became a traitor and supported Georgia because many years ago I stayed 10 weeks in Tbilisi and loved the place to bits. I am looking forward to your next USA vlog now, Paul. All the best from Dai
Very much enjoyed watching a different sport for a change. The ice hockey clubs sure know how to put on a performance for their fans from start to finish! I bet you were happy you supported Georgia now! What an incredible story for them. Everybody will be supporting them as the underdogs for their next game!! 😀⚽️ Would love to visit there at some point. 🤞 I'm always fascinated to hear how many places you have visited and cultures you have experienced.
