Gentle hike in the English countryside | Non alcoholic strawberry daiquiris 🍓 VLOG 

*Hello you lovely lot! Thanks for dropping by to join me for this walk in the Kent countryside - I hope you enjoy it* :) *Remember to make use of my 20% off Wild code - WONDERFUL20 - just go to* bit.ly/WONDERFUL20 - *for a limited time!* *I have popped the link to the daiquiri recipe in the description, it was SO good! Would be good without the non-alcoholic rum too!* 🍸 *Ali xx* ✨

"It tastes like I'm going to be drunk." What a great quote. With the heat of the Phoenix (Arizona, USA) summer beating down on me, I think I need to make this. Thank you so much for taking me along on your walk. It was amazing.

I can’t imagine taking a walk/hike and passing a castle! Doesn’t happen here in the states. Such lovely scenery! Thank you! And you did deserve a special drink. 🥂

Thanks for taking us along. ❤❤❤❤

Oh I love love love this episode 💖💖💖

Dear Ali, I’ve said it before, but I’ll say it again… Watching your Vlogs is so comforting. Life in the U.S. feels increasingly scary, and it’s so lovely to escape into your world. I’m reminded that there is still crochet and knitting, beautiful yarn, and the garden. Thank you, Ali. (I’m crocheting Lorraine Pugh's “Festive Jester” scarf as I watch today. I wonder what became of Lorraine? I hope all is well with her.)

I'm so impressed with your bravery trying new trails! I walk the same route in my neighborhood daily for a one hour knit walk.

What a beautifully tranquil walk. You're so fortunate to have so many amazing walking paths.

Thank you for another fabulous vlog. ❤❤

Oh how I wish we had some many nice walks here where if outdoor go on my own. Nothing of the sort here, however (we do have trails, but most of them are step, through mountains and rocks, not something for daily walks really...), and at this time of the year I’d have to go at dawn as it’s too hot (I live in Sardinia). Always always lovely to see your vlogs Ali ❤ I can relate to so much and we’re about the same age, so it’s like connecting with a friend. Love from Sardinia, Simona Xx ❤

I sat down with my cup of tea and really enjoyed watching this today, thank you.

Your walk looked lovely and so did the strawberry mocktail. I wish I had know you were after a water bladder for your rucksack last year. I had an unused one and a really good rucksack with a frame to keep your back cool it fitted into that I donated because I didn't really use it 😕

Beautiful, beautiful countryside...some areas remind me of our Sherbrooke Forest near where I live. It was 13 deg here today and I have the heating on and 4 layers of clothes...but did sit in sunshine and read after cutting back bushes and raking leaves. I got very sick on Bacardi once, was sick for three days, needless to say I cannot even smell rum without my stomach turning haha....xx

Ooh I've done that walk it's beautiful!

Your walks are so enjoyable to watch. The countryside is stunning and your villages are so quaint and pretty. Thank you for taking the extra steps to bring us amazing footage! ❤

So beautiful but between my allergies and the bugs. I couldn't bare to do a walk thru grassy fields. But enjoy the walk for those of us who can't.😊

Cheers Ali 🍓, I'm going to have to try that cocktail. I do think you are very brave to walk alone, I'd be forever looking behind me. Do you have to have a wild wee sometimes, or do you hold on? Thank you for taking us with you x

Just got to say Ali I did your strawberry daiquiri with Bacardi OMG it’s deeeelish!! Thanks for recommending x

Walking and waffling…..I love the way you greeted the sheep 😂❤

I walked the lovely walk with you! I wanted to get to 10000 steps today, but couldn’t go out anymore because I’m home alone with my young kids. So I walked in the living room looking at the beautiful views you filmed 😊 I got the last 1400 steps in, hurray! I’m celebrating with continuing on my knitting on the couch 😅 So thank you for the video!

Yes, that was a lovely walk and looked so cool, nice for walking. Having to get out real early to walk in Texas this morning at 7am it was already 25c!

Thank you Ali for the beautiful walk & your pleasure at your mocktail cocktail it look so delicious

What a lovely walk! The views are spectacular. I thing an AllTrails membership is well worth it. Thanks!

Lovely vlog! I love using AllTrails. My husband and I just got back from a trip to Poland, part of which was four days hiking in the Tatra Mountains! It was gorgeous. I love the idea of non alcoholic rum. I’ll have to look for it here in the US

I loved your walk. We have a lavender farm not to far from us in Chappell Hill, TX. Your walk made me want to go. 😁😁

My daughter used to work at eagle heights and this was one of my regular walking routes, it’s so beautiful over looking the valley ❤

So lovely, all of it! Cheers! Xo

This was so nice! great way to kick off the Summer season!

Loved coming along on your walk! Stunning countryside but my eyes were drawn to the huge, huge skies. I live in Manchester and I only get to experience this when I visit my in-laws in Lincolnshire. It's wonderful and I am away there this weekend 😊 Looking forward to your next vlog x

Ooooh lovely you are here this evening Ali. What a treat to join you on this beautiful walk. Thank you x

Your drink looked so smooth and delicious! Lovely walk today across meadows and woodland and I would love to do that one! The lavender shop looked interesting! Thanks for a lovely video Ali- I really enjoy your walks x

Hi Ali what a Tuesday night treat x thank you for taking us on your lovely walk I really enjoyed it x that drink looks lovely x

What a stunningly beautiful video. Thank you, Ali! ❤❤❤

What a beautiful walk you took us on! The little village of Shoreham, omgoodness it us delightful! My first thought when I saw that little white house with the pale blue shutters and door was, Ali needs to draw this!!...in ink then watercolour washes!! So wonderful. Sadly I'm an ocean away but I love that we can come with you and enjoy your walks too 😊❤

Today we will have 33 C where I live in Pennsylvania in the US and the temperatures will be rising to 36 C in two days. Unfortunately not good weather for walking outdoors so I will walk on my treadmill and try to pretend that I am beside you on this wonderful little excursion. Thank you for a beautiful and interesting podcast.

Thanks for sharing your beautiful walk. It’s about 32c here , near Chicago, with an air quality advisory, so no walking for me just now. Your drink looks so refreshing!

What a beautiful place you live in , so nice to go on that gorgeous walk with you 😊

Hi such a beautiful walk, I love walking I sometimes do 10 miles in lovely country side there is nothing better. The most I have walked was 17 miles. My lavender in my garden is nearly out ready for the bees 🐝 I sometimes make lavender bags. All the best thank you for a wonderful vlog 😊

What a fabulous day x

Gorgeous vlog, as always! And as someone who loves a cocktail but doesn’t like having her sleep impacted, I’m very curious about the non-alcoholic rum! 👀 thanks for sharing your day with us! ☺️💛

What a lovely walk, Kent looks beautiful. And the mock tail sounded delicious, will definitely try that. Thankyou Ali. Xx

Gorgeous! Glad to catch up with you again, it's been too long 🙏🏼🌳

Love your hiking pin!

Lovely walk. Kind bars are so filling, I can never finish one at one sitting. I carry some tea tree for anti insects too. 🍸

Great video. Your drink looks refreshing. Might have to try that.

Really enjoyed your walk & would like to join you in a lovely n.a strawberry daquari

Lovely walk looked so green and verdant. You taking us along on these walks is definitely making me want to get back out there. I used to walk and explore lots before covid luckily here in norfolk I have the option of some beautiful beach and countryside walks. But during covid I stopped walking so much and then perimenopause anxiety took over and I just couldn't do it anymore. Then unfortunately I've had some health problems which have had an impact, I was hoping this would all be resolved with my hysterectomy I had in March but unfortunately there was an unintentional issue that occurred and I've had problems since including a stay in hospital with a very nasty infection and sepsis. I'm feeling much better now but currently have a nephrostomy bag (a catheter coming out directly from my kidney) and will be having further surgery at some point. I'm not fit enough at the moment for walking far but I'm definitely going to aim towards it and remember the enjoyment I used to get from it. Until then I'll live vicariously through your walks 😂 and hopefully my baby steps will soon become huge strides! May also have to try the cocktail as I can no longer drink alcohol at the minute. Sorry for waffling! Just know that you and other channels like you are a light in dark moments, you definitely kept me company during my recent hospital stay so thank you x ❤😊

Thanks for taking us along for your walk. I'm allergic to Strawberries as most berries such a pest as your drink looked so fresh.

That was a lovely walk, will add hat to my list for me next visit home. I miss the English country side walk, not the same walking in Austin Tx 🤔

What about mosquitoes? Do you have them? You are never afraid being in the middle of nowhere by yourself .

Wow. Looks like mine as I always have everything everyone needs with me.

Ali - I love your vlogs and your walking is so lovely always but I guess it’s my American nervous Nelly within but I’d never walk here in empty spaces as such even though I love walking. Those strawberries look delish. Tomorrow is a weekly farmers market so I’m hoping to get some summer tomatoes. ❤

Love going walking with you if I had places like that to walk around I would be walking all the time…your drink 🍸 looked yum 📚💘📚

You are lucky to live in such a beautiful area!

I don't like strawberries (or they don't like me) but YUM!

❤ lovely vlog. 🍓🍹

Hopefully you saw the poppies in the fields opposite the castle..

What a lovely relaxing vlog. Got to ask tho do you feel safe walking in such remote areas ? Wouldn’t bother me so much as I have a very large Ridgeback dog but just wondered if you ever feel unsafe? Really admire the challenge you’ve set yourself how many miles have you now covered? Definitely going to try the Daquari (tho I do like alcoholic rum🙈) x

Love virgin drinks. Thanks for sharing. I'm so glad you included the farm store footage and those strawberries looked so pretty! I ordered two skeins of your yarn from Lay Family Yarns and am excited to get it.

What a sweet walk. I always enjoy seeing the sights. Cow poop? or horse? or dragon? Watch out as it might be Sutekh poop.🤣

Lovely one! How do you spell the name of that lovely Kent village? Btw any news of that stuffed pink rabbit you found last year? The one was all dirty covered in mud you tried to clean up?

❤

Do you give the strawberry tops you cut off to your chickens? Mine seem to love any berry.

"Mocktails" = cocktail without the alcohol

Hello Ali! I am wondering if ticks are a concern for hiking in grassy areas where you live. Across the pond in New Hampshire, USA they are definitely an issue. Do you have to take any precautionary measures? I get nervous for you!

We are in a heat wave

Ali what is the spf factor in the lip balm please my lips burn in the sun .

💗💗💗love & Hugs, 💗💗🍓🥤 xxx

I love Wild but I don’t find that they smell very strong xx

Do you ever get ticks, or do you spray before walking?

❤❤enjoyed that so much Ali,,,🎉🎉🎉 ELAINE 🏡🏡

Lovely. Walk l can’t make up my mind if you are foolish or brave to do this walk alone . I wouldn’t unless l had a companion Please take care
