City Walks - Victor Idaho Virtual Treadmill Walk - Exploring Small Town Idaho

[@victoriaholeman7846]

Just finished the Victor Idaho walk. First of all, I like when either you or Melinda talk during the walk. Like you said, others can turn down the volume. I like the talking because it is like sharing a walk with a friend and not just walking by one's self. I have more of an affinity with the western states. That town is amazing for having only 2500 people. Even if someone bought a large lot and built some "tiny houses" it would be neat. Those mountains are so nice. I wonder why more people haven't moved there. Thanks so much once again.

Hi Victoria, loving these comments. Funny you mention more people moving there because it's growing so fast it is causing some real problems with affordable housing. There's a lot of service industry jobs there that don't pay enough for the high prices that result from such increased demand. Especially since most of that demand is for higher end homes. Land owners and developers focus on that segment of the market rather than the lower end. Lots of other issues too but you are right, it is incredibly beautiful there, especially in June and July. Keep on steppin' -H

[@RobertSwansonJr]

Henry......Keep on walking Keep on talking 😎👍 Thanks

[@CityWalks]

Will do! Thank so much -H

I appreciate this video soo much. 💗 I grew up in Teton Valley and we primarily lived in Victor. I still have dreams about getting a huckleberry shake, summers with the forest service and working at the Knotty Pine. So many wonderful times. Thank you and sending love to you and everyone you love. 🥰

[@CityWalks]

You are so welcome! -H

[@AmbientWalking]

Nothing beats spending time moving around with different places with you. Really appreciate all the time that you've put into making these videos and sharing it with everyone! Thank you!

[@CityWalks]

My pleasure! -H

[@RelaxedRoamer]

Thanks for sharing this great video 😍 take care

[@CityWalks]

Happy to share. -H

[@chalbal]

Thanks for showing the local flora. seeing other people's garden ideas makes the walk, a good walk. I am so fortunate to have "H" as my travel Channel guide, alot better than travel channels as their focus is more small parts where as H does the whole town...like a curious tourist. The talking and comments and explanations of the shops etc is awsum. Nice mural on that wall. Love this channel !!

[@CityWalks]

So nice of you and so glad you enjoy it. -H

Thank you for your beautiful walking experience. The quality of your footage is amazing. Take care and have a nice week. Watching from Germany.

[@CityWalks]

Danke Schon! Ich spreche kein Deutsch. But I'm learning. Welcome and thanks so much -H

[@domusvita]

Man, I spent a couple of years in Victor and absolutely loved it. Your walk reminds me of the many I took. Just a beautiful area that will change your spirit.

[@CityWalks]

Hi Chris, thanks for sharing those memories. Hopefully this fed that longing a bit. -H

[@CityWalks]

Thanks so much Ad El! -H

[@worldtravel6922]

Wow Thanks for the tour 😀

[@CityWalks]

My pleasure 😊 -H

[@debj7]

TY Henry 😊

[@CityWalks]

YW 😊-H

[@chalbal]

A well lit town on a night walk would be great to see how towns come to life for example on a Friday night during tourist season.

[@CityWalks]

Great suggestion. Thanks. -H

[@THE_MrSteve]

Great walk! Please keep up the chat, really helps and makes it a lot better experience

[@CityWalks]

Thanks so much for the feedback and glad you are enjoying these. -H

[@1807Alves]

I like how he took the time to mention the temperature in Celsius too. Very considerate. Subscribed!

[@CityWalks]

Thanks. Many subscribers from "over seas" and since the US and NK are the only ones using imperial, to my knowledge, I kind of feel like it's a little something to push us over towards metric some day. :-) -H

[@np_production]

Nice walk 👍

[@CityWalks]

Thank you 👍 -H

[@WhoWouldWantThisName]

I especially appreciate your venturing onto the residential blocks. Most travel videos of course won't delve into those places and many of us want to know what the whole town looks like, or at least get a feel of it all. This is what it looks like to someone living there or perhaps even visiting as opposed to the videos that are edited to only show the "attractions" or hot spots. I am exploring small rural towns to move to and this is a great way to get a more accurate picture of what it's like, at least in the summer anyway. :) Thanks Henry. Oh and you're very good at this. Keep the talking in please.

[@CityWalks]

Thank you so much. That’s pretty much how I feel as well about the neighborhoods and small towns. Glad to hear that these are helping. All the best with the move. - H.

[@ricardogalliani5792]

I like the organization of cities!!! there is not much visual pollution!!!!

[@CityWalks]

Me too Thanks. -H

[@oliviamcallister4833]

Hi Henry I've been walking with you while on my treadmill. I really enjoy your chat, I'm in Australia so wouldn't have a clue what I was looking at if not for you. Thank you and keep up the fantastic work. 🖒🖒

[@CityWalks]

Thanks so much Olivia! I appreciate the encouragement and knowing you find them useful. -H

[@nomadicwalker3582]

You're my number one inspiration my friend 👍

[@CityWalks]

Thank you so much 😀 -H

[@miroslavasolntseva9241]

Beautiful walk

[@CityWalks]

Many thanks. -H

[@anonymouse1309]

Always interesting to see how other people live

[@CityWalks]

Totally agree. -H

[@ira5906]

thank you for the lovely walk

[@CityWalks]

Glad you enjoyed it. It was my pleasure. -H

[@dthels75]

This is much better than Paris or Rome in my opinion Henry. Another great walk Henry

[@CityWalks]

It's certainly pretty. Not sure it rises to Paris or Rome but It's close. :-) Thanks for watching -H

[@terry.chootiyaa]

*-Henry. .it would be great if you could get permission to film inside some of the stores and tourist places ahead of time as we would really like to see inside ..even if it's for just a few minutes or so 😊👍*

[@CityWalks]

Noted! Thanks. -H

[@susielandrum1576]

I enjoy the talking. I learn a lot about the area that way. Often I google the area or specific events such as the Piers Hole Battle. I would never have been aware of that battle if you hadn't mentioned it.

[@CityWalks]

Hi Susie, thanks for that specific feedback. I'm always balancing time commitment with making these vids more informational. Sometimes I just show up and start walking with maybe a quick wikipedia article. Good to know that the info is useful. Cheers, -H

[@walkINeurope]

Very relaxing Walk!

[@CityWalks]

Yes, thanks -H

[@thejonesboysvictoridaho6123]

I live there such a great place

[@CityWalks]

Beautiful town for sure. -H

[@TomSealey]

Thanks for this walk Henry. I'm a big fan of your continued exploration of small towns. It was nice to see some of the meadows being allowed to grow wild, and I'm sure bees appreciate it. I'm curious as to what huckleberries taste like? They seem similar to maple syrup in Vermont inasmuch as that they are used in any type of confectionary treat imaginable. Take care.

[@CityWalks]

It's a great sales thing for tourists but they pretty much taste like blueberries to me. Huckleberry ice cream is a pretty nice treat in summer. -H

[@debj7]

💞👍

[@CityWalks]

Thanks! -H

[@carshagify]

Forsythia are yellow and bloom in the spring.

[@CityWalks]

Awesome, thanks for that. - H.

[@kimlongsain6829]

Henry, could you tell me how could you travel around the world like this? How do you fund your travel. I'm so inspired by your video around the world and would like to do the same. Thank you very much for all your videos. K

[@CityWalks]

Well, we sold our house for the first year and I'm filmmaker with a few good clients that keeps me busy about 6 months a year. My wife is a travel writer (travelingmel.com) and earns an income that way as well. Best of luck. -H

[@CityWalks]

Though, we just bought another house so we are settling down a bit. Roots and wings. -H

[@gmerola2652]

Is there MTB trails around ?

[@CityWalks]

Yes. If you are willing to drive a bit. -H

[@thejonesboysvictoridaho6123]

My mom owns that furniture store

[@CityWalks]

Very cool. -H

[@dannyhuelva4897]

At 31:20 I hope you wouldn't mind if I ask where do you intend to buy a new house? Is it just as for investment 's sake?

[@CityWalks]

No problem. We bought a house in Livingston where we are based. We had sold our house in 2016 to travel for a year. We are just now able to buy back into the market. Livingston is a great town and we love time it home. - Leach

[@thejonesboysvictoridaho6123]

My best friends mom owns the emporium

[@CityWalks]

Love small towns. -H

[@diogolpe]

Comece a gravar em 4k 60 meu amigo, é bem melhor e mais agradável para quem assiste.

[@CityWalks]

Yeah, thanks. I've tried that and don't like it. -H

[@al-du6lb]

having the main street be a highway is a horrible idea

[@CityWalks]

I totally agree but these things come about through innertia. The town grew slowly and the traffic was negligible for decades so stores and shops sprouted up where it was easiest. Now that it's busy and crowded, it's infinitely more difficult to move the center of business and activity off that main road. It's like how our road lanes are directly linked to the width of Roman chariots. -H

[@elainepettit2292]

Keep talking and please don't get run over.

[@CityWalks]

I'll try to do both. 😊 -H
