Hello from America 🇺🇲🇬🇧👋👋

[@LivingWalks]

and hello in return from Blighty!

[@GLOW3524]

I studied abroad here. Very fond memories. Feels like I’m there again.

[@LivingWalks]

So pleased to have brought back some happy memories to you Nami!

[@jacobcheng3094]

Miss the city. Used to study in the uni of ply. glad to tour by the video!! thanks! looking forward to go back some day soon!

[@LivingWalks]

Hi Jacob, pleased to give you an exploration of the lovely city, hope you get to see more of it someday soon. Thanks for dropping by.

[@syafiqrosdi3709]

I used to study there. After 10years, its good to see this place again. Although virtually, i thank you for this video. Brings back memories. Please pray for me to make lots of money to visit this place again.

[@LivingWalks]

Hi there Syafiq, so pleased to hear this brought back happy memories of your time there and I very much hope you get to return. Best wishes to you.

[@HurleyDeanSandpointIdaho]

What a nice place. Everyone seems so happy.... Maybe it is the Gin and Ice Cream. Wonderful video...

[@LivingWalks]

Ha ha, perhaps you’re right HD, gin and ice cream, do tend to have that effect! I’m going to drop by to your channel now and see what you have been up to. We’re away in Madeira at the moment, so I haven’t had as much time as Usual.

[@LivingWalks]

Indeed so!

[@LivingWalks]

Join us for our Plymouth UK Tour - filmed in July 2021. This port city is full of history - going back as the Bronze Age! It was from here in 1620 that the Pilgrim Fathers sailed to America and founded Plymouth Colony, the second English settlement in what was to become the USA. Join our Plymouth walking tour and wander through the streets and harbour. If you’ve wondered what’s Plymouth like? - then here’s your chance to see for yourself.

[@dapperdank3701]

Edit; what the Barbican is like, this beautiful walk does not represent Plymouth as a city, far from 😅😁

[@LivingWalks]

@@dapperdank3701 indeed so dapper dank, only a representation of a small part of the city, I’m sure we’ll be back sometime to make a longer walk. All the best to you

[@WalkingMemories]

Always very happy to see a new video from you! Thanks so much! ❣️❣️

I'm relocating to the UK soon and after watching this I'm in love. It looks beautiful. It's definitely on the short list of where to buy/live.

[@LivingWalks]

Hello there Kevin, pleased to know that the footage was helpful. It's a great city, hope you enjoy your investigations!

Looking to relocate to a seaside town for a non driving single mum to a 11 year old boy. I love a creative hub filled with a live community, music, nature and shopping....PLEASE HELP

[@002lisamarie]

Exeter, Dartmouth and Totnes are nicer x

[@daydays12]

@@002lisamarie Indeed they are... but Exeter was blitzed too like Plymouth and badly as they say 'replanned'. But otherwise a nice lively city with a good University and a lovely Cathedral and Cathedral Green. There is also the River Exe. I lived in Exeter for a couple of years.

[@martinleung212]

I studied in Plymouth Polytechnic from Oct 1974 to June 1978. Part of the time, I lived in a sailing school in the Barbican, and I used to buy fish and chips from a shop just round the corner, yummy. Yes, I have some fond memories on the Barbican.

[@LivingWalks]

Hi there @martinleung212, happy to bring back a memory or two of when you studied in Plymouth. Living in a sailing school in the Barbican sounds fascinating.

[@battenberg7111]

Fantastic video. If you’re still in the SW Totnes, Torquay, Teignmouth & Dawlish are worth a visit.

[@LivingWalks]

hello there battenberg, we have filmed some of the places you mentioned, so watch this space! so pleased to hear that you enjoyed it. all the best to you and thanks for dropping by.

Thanks for visiting analilia, hope things are going well for you in Mexico? greetings back from the uk 🇬🇧

[@krissmgvlogs]

Lovely video. I was willing for you to walk by the Lido and by Smeatons Tower. They are my fondest memories of the short time I spent in Plymouth.🙂

[@LivingWalks]

Ah, I hope we'll be back to capture more of the city for you. Hope this brought back a good memory or two for you anyway! All the best and thanks for dropping by.

[@bradh3139]

Excellent video! Thank you so much for the tour of this lovely city. The natural sounds are so much better narration than ego-driven drivel from presenters who are fascinated with the sounds of their own voice. The historical notes you left bring me to a time long before I was around. We will be in Plymouth for just several hours soon as a cruise ship we’ll be on will dock there. Looking forward to gin, a nautical-based bookstore I heard about, gin, the Mayflower departure point and gin.

[@LivingWalks]

Hello there Brad, so pleased that you enjoyed the footage with natural sound and I hope it helps to orientate you when you dock. I’m sure you will have a great time in Portsmouth enjoying the history and the gin!!

[@coffee_hawk]

Hi I like your channel, thank you for the video. 👏👏 greetings from Sweden.

[@LivingWalks]

Thanks for watching fellow Walker. good to hear from you

[@AlisonBryen]

Loved this video so much! I love Plymouth, we usually stay for a couple of nights on our way down to Cornwall, usually staying at the Premier Inn at Lockyer's Quay. We spend so much time in the Barbican (in the pubs!). On our last night we have a huge three course meal at the Village Restautant and book in for cocktails at The Refectory bar at the Plymouth gin distillery too. P.S. They do a lovely cheese salad in The Navy Inn! It's great washed down with a pint of Tribute.

[@LivingWalks]

Good morning Alison, I guess it’s the perfect stop off point for Cornwall. Thanks for your recommendation of the premier inn. The Barbican has a great atmosphere doesn’t it. I have a few walks here in Cornwall if that gets you in the mood for your next trip? all the best to you.

[@AlisonBryen]

@@LivingWalks Yes, coming down from the Midlands, Plymouth is the perfect stopping off point on our journey to the far west of Cornwall. I highly recommend the Premier Inn at Lockyers Quay as it its located close to the aquarium and the Barbican. You can walk to the Barbican from the Premier Inn either via the Swing Bridge or take the longer route around Sutton Harbour. Thank you, I will check your Cornish walks out too!

[@TCHHCTN]

[@LivingWalks]

Ha ha yes, it did make us chuckle too. So good to see such humour.

even though plymouth is in devonshire, it still looks like its in cornwall on a map to me.

[@LivingWalks]

I take your point Aaron!

[@zuffin1864]

I feel like i would just have to live on the south coast of britain if i moved there, they at least get a reasonable amount of sunlight there. So much of britian doesn't seem to get enough!

[@LivingWalks]

Hi @zuffin1864, we live in the South East, and get lots of sun and very little rain, so fortunate in that respect.

[@colinafobe2152]

for us who cant obtain UK visa easily this is the best way to explore beautiful Plymouth

[@LivingWalks]

Our pleasure! we’re happy to hear you enjoyed Plymouth, I wish the visa was easier for you. We do understand your frustration.

My wife has a potential great work opportunity coming up, where we would need to relocate to Plymouth. Her place of work would be a business working within Royal Williams Yard, so we ( a family of 6 ) would be looking for a place around that area.

[@LivingWalks]

Best of luck with your potential relocation David, I hope this helped you to get to know the streets a little better. All the best to you.

Its the Barbican, not a quay

[@LivingWalks]

Thanks Steve.

[@daydays12]

Thank you very much for this. I lived in Plymouth from the age of one to 23/24 .... a long time ago.. 1947 -1970. A pity about the noisy cars and motorbikes driving in the barbican. Unpleasant for pedestrians....Where we could hear people talking I was pleased to hear Plymouth accents. Unfortunately, for anyone who doesn't know the city... this ( the barbican) is just a small un typical part of the city. Why not do a 'walk' in the 're-constructed ' major part of Plymouth? The barbican ( this video) was almost the only part that vicious, car mad Abercrombie didn't develop. OfAbercrombie' s post-war 'replanning' of Plymouth, Sir Simon Jenkins wrote: "Poor Plymouth. It was badly blitzed in the Second World War and then subjected to slash and burn by its city fathers. The modern visitor will find it a maze of concrete blocks, ill-sited towers and ruthless road schemes. Most of this damage was done by one man, Patrick Abercrombie, in the 1950s. The old Barbican district would, in France or Germany, have had its façades restored or rebuilt. Here new buildings were inserted with no feeling for the texture of the old lanes and alleys." In this video you don't show the principal 'replanned' centre of Plymouth. I see and hear that Abercrombie's vision of priority to the car lives on in the city., even on the barbican which he left 'relatively' un touched. You also mention South Devon AOB ( what remains is beautiful) .... but you don't mention that Plymouth has built over quite a lot of it.... PLymstock, Elburton, Brixton, Plympton, Wembury, Turnchapel. Sherford New Town anyone??

[@LivingWalks]

Thanks for taking the time to drop by @daydays12, we travel a lot in Europe and see your point completely about what has happened in the city. We were just glad to find this little part with some soul remaining. All the best to you.

[@daydays12]

@@LivingWalks Thank you so much! You have chosen well! The Hoe is quite nice too.
