" I'm only going to tell you one ghost story cause I don't want to scare myself" 🤣🤣🤣 One of my favourite comments from you on your trek! Then the next day whilst looking at a ruin in a glade (beautiful really) your comments "Investigating with Aden......" " Shall we do a renovation project loves?" - had me roaring with laughter! 😆 I am glad your trip wild camping on Dartmoor went really well for you and certainly enjoyed watching. Looking forward to your next travel vlog with much anticipation.🚶‍♀🚶🚶‍♂ Thank you Aden.

@oliviami_ 3 месяца назад

that was the best hiking vlog i ever seen. Maybe you didnt see my feedback but yet considered it hahaha i loved how much time you took to really let us take in the views and little creeks around and all in all it was amazing to watch. I am so glad you have a great time doing this. Your mood really transfers via the screen to me and i love that. Thank you so much! My favourite was actually the "lord of the rings" spot you showed us. I would have just stayed there all day long to be honest haha!

I’ve always been really scared of Dartmoor. It’s always been a spooky place in my mind. Probably from reading Hound of the Baskervilles and other novels featuring moors like Jamaica Inn. This has shown me that it’s not all bad 😊 another great video 😊 Still scared of bogs and mires though…

@gayleafcb 3 месяца назад

As you know I am in a wheelchair so the only way I go hiking is through you! Loved the video and could literally smell the nature. Helped by my autistic son having appeared with a bunch of leaves as gifts for me, saying he was bringing nature to me as I don't get out in it enough! Great timing on his part as I had a wonderful leafy smell to accompany the video. My names suggestions for the tent are: Nellie (around the world in 72 days), Tabitha (means “gazelle,” but suggests swiftness and movement), or Saira (an Arabic name meaning “traveler.”), ☺ I have been to Dartmoor, visited the prison many times (as a solicitor!!!). The first time was in winter, there was a thick fog and I have never seen anywhere as bleak as that journey. Whilst not a fan of zoos, I prefer animals to be in their natural habitat, I used to take my son to Dartmoor zoo 3/4 times every summer school holiday because he loved to sit and watch the tigers all day. That was it, just the tigers! 🐅🐯

I'm only about 8 minutes in and it's already so beautiful. I'm sad I'll have to go to bed soon since it's nearly 11:30 PM in Nigeria but I'll continue tomorrow! I'm glad you decided to start this channel. It's great to see beautiful sites like this, even if on a phone screen

Fantastic work Aden! Love the music and your sound is great! And the view is stunning in 4k!!! How lovely it would be to see drone shots but imagine if everyone was setting their drones all at the same time. Would totally ruin the ambience. Your tent is Dora ;)

I truly love your beautiful videos. Got chills when you arrived at the stone circle. Suggestion for the tent's name: Tabitha Titterton

@LivinInSim 3 месяца назад

So that is an English moor...it's made a nice contrast to your other showings. In fact there were a lot of variations in the moor itself, the craggy areas, the wooded parts, sweeps without a tree for miles, the lake, the boggy swamp, so many little brooks. The sky is so much more a factor in the open areas, and there were some lovely clouds that day. I love it when I can stand on a relatively high point and see the clouds sweeping by. I just seem to get a feel of the vastness of the earth and sky. I've seen pictures of the stone circles before. They are very intriguing. I never realized they have the row opf standing stones that look like they're guiding the way to them? Is that unique to just this one? It looked like they stretched along your path for quite a way. How helpful to use an ancient wayfaring method that is still here to this very day. The ruin seemed to have had actual walls, so I doubt it could've been a quarry for the stones. Princetown seemed to almost be a part of the moor. Hope your roast beef was delish. Please keep them coming, Aden!

That meal leaves a lot to be desired but at least it fills the hole, right 🥴 37:55 👁️👃👁️ love a good ghost story. 43:30 same. I love waking up early and having a quiet morning. Devices don’t get turned on until later. A plethora of hot and cold drinks/smoothies and silence. Bliss. 55:30 AWWW THE BABY 🥹 Another brilliant tour. Gotta love those giraffes 😌 Hope you guys had a delish roast ❤

Loved this video, made me want to head out onto the moors. Been a while since I've done a hike up there. Burrator is one of my favourites 🙂 I had a friend who lived in Princetown and we went out there on NYE one year. We went outside at midnight and you could hear the inmates at Dartmoor prison cheering and banging against the bars. It was super eerie!

This was absolutely gorgeous. I loved where you camped. It was so beautiful the sunset and everything. And yeah I could see why other people would want to be up there too because it seems like such a great spot. Just a whole trail with beautiful and to be able to go around and hike without worrying about some crazy person coming out of the woods and killing you. So that's the beauty of not being in the States!! 😂

Another comment now that I finished the video. Tent name suggestion: Tamara. I'm so proud of you for your first solo wild camping! Glad it wasn't scary. And maybe a build video suggestion: since you stayed at that beautiful converted-prison hotel and we got to see a bit of Dartmoor Prision, you could do a build based on those, and turn them into apartments!

What fun seeing Aden in his element. We have a campers rule here in my area, "Leave your campsite a little better than how you found it." I take it as leave a little tettering stone altar, lol. I adore seeing these places, and the music choices are so spot-on. Such a great time!

@monogamous_stitcher 3 месяца назад

You don’t know how much I love that you’re sharing your walking adventures. There is a lot of walking YT out there I’m sure, and I wouldn’t know where to start. And now I don’t have to, because watching your channel feels like sharing this passion with an old friend. I walked the Cotswolds Way in Summer 2012 and it was the wettest walk I’d ever done. But so beautiful! I cannot wait for you to do the West Highland Way. It’s a lovely walk and very doable even for the more inexperienced, which you are not! You certainly are ready! If I ever run into you on a trail I’ll say hi and try not to scare you 😊

@vingedheart 3 месяца назад

Dartmoor - of course it's familiar. I love the old English classics - and so many literary greats were associated with and inspired by Devon and Dartmoor - Charles Dickens, Agatha Christie, Jane Austen, Arthur Conan Doyle, RD Blackmore, Henry Williamson and probably more. Amazing what a video like this brings with it. I just realized there are still books, by some of these authors that I have not read. Added: And yes! John Galsworthy - who wrote the books about the Forsyte family that was turned into a television series in 67, ''The Forsyte Saga" - which my parents watched - and thus I, as a little girl... oh my... I am feeling so nostalgic now. 🥺Not really a bad feeling; but you have to be my age to really understand what it is.... (I am 63).

I just discovered that you had this channel as well - awesome to be able to 'spend time' with you and to see more of the gorgeous English countryside! My sister lives in London, and I was an au pair there, many moons ago myself. (I am Danish.) I've never seen Dartmoor, but I've been to the Cotswolds, which was amazing I hope we get to go with you when you go that way. The nature is beautiful but I also love the older English architecture. I went to Oxford as well and Brighton - and now I get to experience Dartmoor with you. Thank you so much for bringing us along. ♥

@susangwilt792 Месяц назад

Aww, thank you for taking me on your adventure Aden its absolutely gorgeous. You've definitely given me some inspiration to go hiking. I do love the countryside, and I think I'd be in my elimination. I look forward to your next adventure ❤ the circle dates back to 1500 BC bronze age, and there's a cist in the centre of the circle which would have been for the ashes of a chief there you go my lovely get me doing a bit history 😊 ❤
