Living on Dartmoor in Winter ✨

- My love letter to Dartmoor. I’ve spent six weeks living here this winter and this is my homage to the moors and the rivers, to the trees and the animals, to the glorious, magical, wet windy and wild place that is Dartmoor. Join me to relax and enjoy the peace and solitude here in the National Park xx

Thinking of getting a dog? Check out these amazing sighthounds all needing a loving home, I promise you will get more than you give ❤️🐾
🐾Forever Hounds Trust is dedicated to the rescue, rehabilitation and rehoming of unwanted, abused or abandoned Greyhounds and Lurchers. In 2019 the Greyhound Board of Great Britain (GBGB) data confirmed 4970 injuries and 790 deaths of registered racing greyhounds. This does not include the many more injuries and deaths sustained on unregulated on ‘flapping’ tracks
10,000 dogs are deemed surplus to requirements each year out of all those bred annually for the sport. 8,000 of these are ‘retired’ racers while the rest are young dogs that didn’t make the grade. There are still no regulations to cover the welfare of greyhounds whilst in trainers’ kennels.

🐾Galgo Del Sol rescues and rehabilitates abandoned and injured Galgos for placement in forever homes in the UK, Europe, and US. Bred solely for hunting, thousands of Galgos are killed or abandoned annually at the end of each short hunting season in Spain.

A little about us: I adopted my ex-racing greyhound Miss Nancy three years ago, it was a massive learning curve for both of us and we have become the best of friends, who love going on outdoor adventures, wild swims, van camping and finding vegan food out and about! We make videos showing what it’s like to have a greyhound as a pet, the beautiful outdoors, vanlife, and life with a greyhound!
💔Since I lost my girl earlier this year, I continue to try and make videos exploring the great outdoors and the healing power of nature, promoting animal adoption/rescue and compassionate living, vlogging my travels and my work as a designer/maker.
Thanks so much for your support! It means the world,
Tori (and Miss Nancy still by my side🐾❤️)

"It's like my Soul has had a Shower " Absolutely Love that Tori! Thank you ❤x
Why isn't this on mainstream media its worth it ❤
When your words and images meet, something truly beautiful is created - thank you. All is well for at least nine-minutes-six in my life. I have the dogs - six of them, all greyhounds, rescues - just need to get out more. Thanks for the reminder. Dogs are life, they bring a beacon of light and hope when all around seems dark and full of despair. But you know that.
Lovely thoughtful video Tori. Cheers. Andy UK
The way you’re describing Dartmoor reminds of The Hound of the Baskervilles. However, your dog is much less scary😂
I’m glad your soul had a shower🤔 Tori❤️
Beautiful video Tori. Thank you for sharing 😊🤗XX
Always nice to see you having a good time ( apart from the weather) and being with what looks like a lovely soft pooch.
I've watched your journey but haven't commented much. You've got a kind luv'n heart and are great with the fur baby companions. I think it would be a blessing for any fur baby to have the opportunity to be your companion. Sooooo many are mistreated and neglected in this world. I personally like the idea of you getting another of your own and create the next chapter of your life together and still cherishing the chapter you had with Miss Nancy in your life.
Good job
God Bless....Stay Safe
Hi Tori 👋 Glad to be watching your videos again ☺️. It looks stunning dartmoor ☺️ and yes being with a dog is special ❤️ 😊
Take care and keep exploring 🐾🥰
Great to see you with a furry friend again.
Spring on the horizon, days getting "longer" ! :)
Together with "warmer" waters, maybe !
Thanks for the vlog
Have a awesome day Tori
☀️ 🤍
🐦🦆
Really beautiful. Your videos are a "shower for the soul" ! What an amazing and peaceful place, makes me homesick for the UK after 20 years abroad ☺
Your silver encapsulated jewelry is gorgeous!
As ever Tori another wonderful video! 😊
Hi tori you can see how happy it makes you when you are around animals especially dogs great to see you smiling and thanks for showing us just how beautiful Dartmoor is be looking forward to your video hope you are ok and well as always be safe and take care ❤xxx
Awesome video and beautiful scenery, thanks
What a beautiful uplifting video, I’d call it poetic!
Really enjoyed this, thanks for sharing again 😊
I do love a golden retriever.
What a great friend to have when you are remote and have no electricity on Internet Tori.
Parts of the west of Ireland after the last storm are still without electricity over two weeks later
Best Wishes
I have to admit I've had enough of winter, cold ,fog and rain but seeing you on a lovely walk inspires me that spring is round the corner, I don't know how you find these great places.
Hi tori you make realise how much I take dartmoor for granted I live about 10 mins from the moot but don't go up as much as I could
As for another pup do it you have so much love to give ❤
Terry
Such a great video so heart warming aren't we lucky to have such beautiful places like Dartmoor in our country.Thankyou Tori.🤗❤️
Hi Tori, before I discovered your amazing videos about Dartmoor, I had no idea what a fantastic and diverse landscape it is. Everyone knows about Cornwall, Wales, or the Scottish Highlands, but Dartmoor is less well-known. A big mistake! I wish I had the time to travel there now and take photos. February is a wonderful month because nature is slowly waking up from its winter sleep, the light is returning, and it creates magical moments. Thank you so much for taking us on this journey of discovery.
And let me add one more thing: I think it's slowly time for you to have your own home (I mentioned some weeks before), even though housesitting gives you so many different experiences, ideas, and freedoms. And I think the time has come for you to give your love to a furry friend. That doesn't mean you should forget Miss Nancy, of course. That will never happen. But there are so many lonely dogs out there longing for love, and they deserve it. However, I'm sure you'll make the right decision at the right time. Bye for now and best wishes from Germany.
so cool how they've put that post box in the stone bank........can't beat the unspoilt landscapes of Dartmoor
You captured some beautiful Landscapes once again. I'd like to see you present some archaeological/historical programmes, perhaps on TV?
My favourite Tori❤❤❤
What a beautiful video and a beautiful dog and you to of course lovely to see you looking so happy to looking forward to your next video dont leave it to long take care stay safe Xx
Hey Tori, what a beautiful walk with your beautiful companion, Dartmoor is just so amazing and you look like you’ve had just such an amazing time while you’ve been there, was wondering if you were going to jump into that 3 metre deep spooky pool!
Hope you’re having a good weekend so far xx ❤
Beautiful video thank you. Such stunning scenery and definitely great to hear a little about it's history too so please carry on with that! 👍🙂
I used to live in Princetown on Dartmoor, was amazing and i will return 1 day.
I always enjoy your videos - thanks for sharing. Glad you enjoyed your time there - such a beautiful place. You chose music for this one that matched the mood well 🙂
Thank you so much Tori 🤗 that was awesome, just what the doctor ordered 😀 I like the little snip bits of history too 🫡 absolutely beautiful scenery, who would want to be anywhere else, thank you again for another fantastic video 📹 ❤🤹♂️🇬🇧
5:51 No one to be seen for miles and yet there's always a trusty bright red post box nearby! 😊
Great post. Great dog and great Dartmoor.
Thank you. That is a so relaxing and beautiful vlog. 😍
I think i probably have photos of that same sunrise. We've not had many as good as that in January.
Its 3 years tomorrow since i lost my old girl Heidi.
Your heart will know when you are ready, and i think, and hope you are getting there. 😊
I’m really glad I came across your channel, completely randomly btw.
I’ve been to many places in this world but there’s nowhere as beautiful as my homeland, the UK.
Your videos show us the beauty of this place; and this old fart really appreciates them.
Of course, the fact you are equally as beautiful just adds to the viewing experience.
what a wonderful place to be as much as i hate winter time Dartmore is so beautiful and peaceful take care lovely lady
I really miss hiking on Dartmoor :( -- Many years doing Ten Tors and climbing on Hay Tor and the Dewerstone
For some of us just having a dog for company is perfect. I'm old and live aboard a narrowboat with my faithful greyhound. Wouldn't have it any other way. Good luck with finding a new soul mate.
Beautiful England 🇬🇧. I find all those kind of places so captivating and peaceful. Thanks for sharing with us. Wonderful 🙂
Great video
Really beautiful post!! Exceeding in creativity and quality. Same shots, I guess took you a while and a lot of hard work? They look perfect. Always with a pretty smile and beautiful. Thanks for making my evening much better. Sayonara
Another beautiful video Tori. Thank you ❤
A beautiful video by a Beautiful woman
Lovely!
👌💖💖💖🥰🐾😍
Thanks for sharing your adventure.
I really appreciate you opening another window onto Dartmoor, much appreciated.
Wow......now i can say without dubt...you are absolutely a great woman ⭐🤜🤛
I love the winter,fresh clean air and frost,also winter sun is awsome
Your welcome TORI ! a L💖 vely tour of the TOR'S with TORI, some magnificent morning 🌅 neon pastels in your intro.🌬️✨✨✨🙏
A beautiful video Tori, a lovely play upon words, a lovely set of memories shared with breathtaking views. You seem at home there. Maybe this is your year to find home and fulfil your heart and inner peace. You are truly a beautiful human being and deserve happiness. Positive blessings your way x
A beautiful ode to Dartmoor! It’s a stunning place, so raw yet so beautiful.
It’s lovely to hear you say that you are thinking about having another dog, I’ve hardly been able to watch your videos since poor Ms Nancy passed away; it reminded me so much of the loss of my Greyhound, Penny, another wonderful gentle soul. Take care .
🙏🙏💎💎💎💎
watch out for hounds of the Baskervilles!! have you seen the jeremy brett as sherlock holmes? tv version?- amazing!! you'll love it as you;re there!!! woooooo!!!
I thought you were going to take a plunge pool for second there 😅
OMG Tori....!!!! How could you possibly feature such a beautiful golden-girl, but not introduce us properly..??? #socialskills 😉
Rick Springfield would be devastated....🤭😂 But all forgiven for keeping her wrapped up..... presumably in bed 🥰😍
02:58 disappointed you didn't get your kit off for some wide-dipping...🤔🤭🤣
Although I appreciate that you're normally drawn to longer nose, somewhat faster girls..... If you need another golden fix, let us know. My girl is equally nonchalant.
Luv the vlogs & keep trivia coming ❤
❤😍✨💕🎉💐💝🌹💝💐🎉💕✨😍❤
Don't think I've been to Dartmoor but those landscapes remind me of the North Yorkshire moors and perhaps the song Wuthering Heights by Kate Bush. Emily Brontë’s novel of the same name was set on the rugged Yorkshire moors.. I always liked Kate Bush songs..
You are AMAZING
I soooo look forward to your videos, so very beautiful and peaceful. But as I write this, I realize that I missed the intermission for a very important announcement. Maybe that means there is a dog in your future again??? Not to repeat, but as the first commenter said, you are AMAZING!!! 🥰
Beautifully evocative, wonderful cinematography 😊
Jesse has the look of a dog who normally walks off lead ?

Another great soothing video. Just what I need right now Tori, thank you ❤
The history facts are just fine, like you say... you have to give it a try.... although my Doctor told me it was ok to try anything just once... apart from Morris Dancing.....
You should pen to paper your very articulate and poetic in the way you describe ❤
'Another ancient … something.' I prefer it when it's all vague. They probably used it for sacrificing … something. It could well be a Native American burial ground. They are everywhere.
You need to get a dog again ❤
By the way, yes you could quite successfully do a history edition. You could call it Tori's His-Tori Channel!
You know, your videoa just keep getting better. Love the woof too.
I can see why Cornwall draws you. It's so gorgeous. I have been to Newquay for a stay but that was as a school leaver back in '79 (Jeez I'm old!!).How I came to Mention Perrenporth before I believe.
Took Mom for a drive yesterday and traveled to the village my folks lived in my birth year. It's a small Hamlet in Wiltshire called Compton Basset. Never seen such a picturesque place. It's o par with Castle Coombe, yet not many people know it's there. Also hit Avebury as well. Some day trip, yesterday.
I do think you have the best life, what with the house sitting and pet-watching/sitting! I'd wouldn't mind a go at that but I'm not exactly able bodied enough to try, sadly. All the more spots for you, I guess! One last thing, did the poetry reach your Work Email? I never know.
Anyhoo, once again, I waffle too much. Take care sweet one,
love you,. Wolfie.
What winter?
it sounds like this... well, 'sabbatical' isn't the right word because you worked, but this 'break' was what you needed - in more ways than one.
I wish she was my girlfriend-all the things I like to do😢. Nomsimpin
yea I hear that. non simpin haha love that
My comments are now 3 times been deleted 😂
Yourself and our georgous country seems even more gorgeous with a lead attached to your hand, preferably a greyhound, but STILL 😂xxx
I think your video sounds fine and I like the facts history facts are cool if you want a critique then you are relaxed an easy to watch thanks for not shouting at me like a lot of RUclipsrs do❤❤
