Culture shocks are real. I have decided to share my experiences of life in Germany as a Brit, as well as the beautiful places I am lucky enough to visit.
My meditative videos show a calming and artistic view of the places I visit and the quiet, peaceful wanders I take through them. Medieval villages, picturesque cottages, beautiful cities. Relax and escape with me from the busy bustling world to my dreamy and serene slow living way of seeing my surroundings. Experience the magic of peering into the past and being in a fairytale, just for a little while.

Will try and watch today but might be too busy.
Hope you had a lovely day!
Erst ein Like, denn das muss! Und vor dem Video von mir noch einen lieben Gruß!❤😂
Danke ich spür deine Begeisterung für die Burgen und die Landschaft. Peter
Lauren, your joy and excitement in exploring the area is simply infectious. I'm sorry, but I hope I'm not disappointing you too much when I say that I don't think the original Victoria sponge cake was vegan back then. I don't even think the term vegan was known back then. I'm very sorry, but thats my German honesty and directness. 🤷🏻♂
It's a lovely lovely lovely lovely spot of our planet! 🤩 The travel channel by Steve Marsh shows a lot of that area and short trips all across Europe and sometimes beyond. Worth a watch, too! 🤗
And, aye me Flower, I shall gie yir new songs a spin at an instant!
Not really a place that would interest me but I'm glad you had fun.
I don't know what is more exciting … the nature, landscape, history or your amazing enthusiasm about all of this.
Each video is a great one
Your music and videos on Voice Passion is great, too !!!!!!!!!
Will never forget my one visit on a beach at the English East coast (Skegness/Wash). Thanks for bringing me back this mood and memory. These very calm areas are very, very special and do something to our soul. (The same with the very North-West of Ireland).
If you get tired of the sponge cake, can I have the rest?
well, actually… no, i don't want to be the knowitall
What a wonderful surprise in the evening! 😃
Again, You are right on time, to cheer me up! ❤
This was awesome!
Feel loved and cuddled! 🥰🤗
So, I guess there's something very wonderful waiting for me on Voice Passion!
Let's have a look ❤️💋❤️
Lauren – honestly!!!!😂😢🎉😅❤
0:49/0:50 "I am going to see what the Vikings saw first in Britain…" And at that moment you are showing us a rock with a "No Parking" sign, a nice one though, stuck to it – no way, come on. I pe*d myself laughing, confess! you did that on purpose😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@lauren, see now you have yet another connection to Schweinfurt. greetings from a former german soldier from Schweinfurt now in Georgia.
3:54
Standing on holy ground and wearing a halo. We all knew there is more to you than the naked eye can spot. Seeing is believing. 🙏
Lovely to see you over there. And lovely to hear the celtic music in the background. Well, hmmm vegan cake in that time ? I guess they were happy to get any cake 😂. Longing to see you live in concert. I found the spot for zur tikets. Take Care 😍
Lived in the area for a few years. Good times to look back on. I had a partial view of Holy Island from my main upstairs window.
Lindisfarne used to be always free parking, where you wanted to park – as long as it wasn't on double yellow lines, etc.
Bamburgh has a very good award winning butchers….and nearby Belford has one of the best fish & chip shops in the country.
A couple of overlooked spots for anyone into churches are Berwick & Ladykirk – the former has a very rare church there built by Cromwell, the latter has a church built by King James.
Watched a lot of the filming of one of the episodes of Outlander as they shot a lot of it on some land where I used to visit. Nearest I got to that era though was as an extra in Outlaw King for the scenes shot in Berwick harbour.
North Northumberland is a really nice area & well worth visiting
Nice to see:
Lauren and the holy cuppa coffee
😊
I hope I'll find a way to visit Lindisfarne. It's a quite magical place I assume.
Very beautiful impressions.
Thank you, Lauren.
I spent some time on Lindisfarne when studying for my MA in Archaeology at Newcastle. Lindisfarne is beautiful and an amazing place to ponder history. To think that is the very spot the Viking age started!
They don't! …welcome…hust hust ^^
Ja, ein Tag ohne Kaffee & Kuchen ist ein verlorener Tag. 😁 Sieht nach einer tollen Reise aus. 👍🏾😎
7:30 I had the same experience at Cardiff and Koch Castles. The staff made the visit extra enjoyable with their attitude.
Beautiful scenery
Hi Lauren! Thank you for sharing your adventure. It seems like you are really energized by your travels in Britain and am glad to see it😄 All the best, Peter.
Hello there. I just found your channel, so as you have asked for, I subscribed ❤ I really enjoyed your video and love the places you have shown. I am German doing vanlife and housesitting in Europe and started a similar channel a few months ago. I am looking forward to checking out your music channel, as well. Greetings from northern Hessen, former home of the brothers Grimm
Brexit was about leaving the EU bureaucracy, not rejecting Continental Europe and its people.
Hi Lauren – the algorithm recommended me your video so am making your acquaintance for the first time. Lovely video! Delightful how you are so moved by visiting places which featured in your favourite series! What really impressed me however was something else: your WONDERFUL diction! As a native English speaker who has lived most of his life abroad, speaking English for non-mothertongue English speakers, mine has evolved to be precise and relatively accentless too. So I was immediately fascinated and delighted to hear you speak! A delight for my ears! And of course, seeing these magical places is equally delightful. My ears did detect a slight trace of something else in your voice – but only the slightest of traces – so was relieved to hear you are originally Welsh which would explain the slightest of changes in the rhythm I was expecting. I hope I didn't offend you with the above. I will be checking your music channel as I am a big fan of Celtic music from all Celtic regions. All the best, Rob in Switzerland
Im missing England in the EU. Regards from Germany.
In and out UK last month was like last decade. It is still an island, still with the same quirks.
This is a beautiful and informative video. I'd love to visit those places.
But I don't understand the title "Post Brexit – How Britain welcomes tourists"…
What does this have to do with brexit? Well I bet, one could visit these places also before brexit and there were nice people there too…
Or maybe I'm just not getting it…
Greetings from Germany
I did two tours of Scotland so far, and have also been to Midhope castle, stumbling uppon it driving around the Edinburgh area without a real plan. Only there I learned about the Outlander series, which somehow had completely passed me for years as it seems. I'm a big fan now, and already had seen lots of other sites from the show.
You mentioned the wonderful staff at those locations, and Yes, I can confirm that. Especially the young guy at that ticket counter at Midhope castle (don't know if it's the same one you encountered) was super helpful, and gave me a lot of great info and was super enthusiastic at showing and promoting the place.
Traumhafte Landschaft
so I have been to Jersey recently connecting in LHR.
it was the first time I travelled into/through the UK since Brexit was finalized. maybe it's the decades of the conservative's lack of investments in infrastructure, maybe brexit, maybe a bit of everything. But the passport control was a shite show, interrogated for using a German Emergency Passport (vorläufiger Reisepass) by a border official who didn't know his stuff and was reluctant to hear that he was incorrect, even showing the official german foreign ministry website.
then the question: "how long are you in the UK for"
"do you count Jersey as part of the UK?"
he went quiet and just let me pass.
what the hell?
they were sending connecting passengers into a security queue that was doing exercises/trials – 95% of hand luggage flagged for extra inspection. it took 50 minutes to get our hand luggage. luckily we had plenty of time, but plenty other passengers missed their flights. ¯_(ツ)_/¯
they lost our checked luggage though.
I used to say: why can't FRA be like LHR… but LHR is truly worse than FRA now… like a lot worse.
What a lovely presenter. A real Gem for the Uk.Background music is very fitting too.
Great video, Lauren. As usual i had to watch it twice. There are so much untold about Lindisfarne still. Hundred of Vikings against a small flock of God serving monks, is not really fair play. But it happened and changed the course of Europes history forever. Despite historical evidence points out all three Scandinavian countries as viking nations, i suspect the Norwegians started it. "Vik" in Norwegian, means "bay". And "ing" is just a way to end a word. (Ex: He is a Tromsø vær-ing) A person from Tromsø. Besides; opposite of a land of milk and honey, like Denmark or Sweden, for that matter, Norway one thousand years ago must have been very difficult to survive in. Remember we used to have the "ættestup" in Norway. ((When mama and papa got to old to contribute to the tribe we used to lead them to the top of a mountain.. and push them gently into the other world) Truly we act a little bit different today but most of us today follow the laws of nature. For better and for worse. Norwegian logic is really slightly different from ordinary human logic. Again; great video. Looking forward to the next one 👍
What an inspiration you are Lauren ! Thankyou
