I have the same issues, holiday videos do really well, others less so. The problem is there is so much content on RUclips it is very hard to get round and watch everyone's content. I did enjoy this Christmas Market video, though. I think I'm team Salzburg.
Thanks so much. No one really understands the algorithm, even those tons of videos who claim to!! We won’t stop as we love it so much, we just had a grumpy moment!! I’m team Salzburg for sure!!! Cheers 🍻
Love that they have bears to skate with instead of penguins! Great choice of sausage and gluewine. Some very attractive baubles, id worry about getting them home safely. The unicycling santa was cool. Sausages are out in Salzburg and in are pretzels and chestnuts! Lovely recap on Silent Night. Would love to see Salzburg at Christmas. We got spotted in BandQ buying decking yesterday! 🍻 wine glass down oh no
Yes, it’s been brilliant to relive these markets and use some of the footage we didn’t use last year. Loved all the sausages of course, but that strudel was something else. We wish we could go to a euro Christmas market this year, but sadly Wills has been grounded by work 🤣. We have received today our first product review so we’re buzzing again!! Yep wine glass down! Cheers 🍻
@@PostcardAndAPint a product review!? Splendid ♥️ love seeing your footage from last years trip, that was a great series and its timely re-editing should do the numbers xx
Hey guys this was great to see, the markets here looked so good and I enjoyed just the walking one you did here too. I wouldn't get discouraged about the views, it definitely happens according to what the videos are with all of us, and you are both so adorable and fun just keep doing what you do and enjoy it ~ Anna 👍❤️❤
Thank you for the words of encouragement! I’ve just seen that you guys have released a new video, we’ll be over to check that out later. We were just having a moment as we do try really hard and it gets disheartening. Then out of nowhere a video you didn’t think was that great that you’ve done suddenly blows up - who can tell with the RUclips algorithm!! Cheers for watching both 🍻
This is one best xmas video's seen,so xmasy and as always love rach's script.Love the skateing and the snow i would love to have been there.the sausage is making me hungry.Love the mug",but only thing puts me of is crowds i try to avoid packed places if i can.But i think watching this,it looks so nice there and somewere we havent been for awhile,think i saw those youtubers before,but i am abit of a dory.Got new puppy so all my time being taken up,hubby is like im too old for this wish we got a cat.this was simply stunning video,i love snow and boy you got alot that. Hope you both have a lovely xmas debs xx 💎💎🤗.
Hiya lovely Debs! Ah a new puppy, adorable!! Please post a vid of the pup!!! We love animals! Yes it was lovely to relive last years markets and put together a new video (we can’t go to any this year, due to Wills work!!!). You can’t beat a German sausage can you! Have a brilliant Christmas full of puppy love. Cheers 🍻
We enjoyed the visit to both of these lovely Christmas Markets, Rachel and Wills. Any sausage and potato there? Both wonderful markets and we would love to visit them both! We would especially like to see the Silent Night Chapel. Looks so peaceful there and the small town market. Absolutely beautiful.
Thanks so much guys, yep as much sausage and potato as you can manage! The Silent Night Chapel and Market is absolutely beautiful. Cheers for watching 🍻
I think after just one visit it would take me the next year to diet off the pounds I'd gain! Smaller crowds for sure for me...and the snow sure adds to everything!! Wow, it seems that every corner you turn in Salzburg is a perfect picture!! Marvelous tour around! Indeed, sometimes for me it is just a kind word from someone that really make a big difference. Thanks for sharing your experience...and please keep it going!! Bruce and Otis
Thanks guys. Yes Salzburg is just stunning (Munich is too) but I’m team Salzburg for sure (Rachel). The fact that it snowed the whole time we were there was extra special. We won’t stop, we just had a grumpy moment. We love it too much and have met far too many amazing people to stop. Cheers 🍻
Ah thanks guys. We won’t stop, we were just having a grumpy moment. We love it too much and we’ve met far too many fabulous people to walk away! And Wills gets to put his tree up early to film Christmas content - so win win!!! Cheers 🍻
All is good in the world when there is an abundance of sausage, hot wine and chocolate ! Another superb video guys and loving the info and history.. Loved it and Salzburg looks amazing. And you had snow !! It even makes the grumpy half of COOKSEXPLORE feel festive … Wish we could bottle that!
Yep what’s not to like when you have sausage wine and chocolate. It’s been lovely revisiting these markets via video this year. We’re glad that we sent some Christmas magic to the grumpy one!! Thanks for your Insta message too. Cheers 🍻
great looking markets, as you know i am not a Christmas fan 😂its hard not to get down about the views at times, but we enjoy doing what we do, which the important bit really 🙂
How can you not be a Christmas fan when you see a market like Salzburg!!! 🤣🤣. We were just having a grumpy moment- we totally love what we do and just want it to grow more! We’ll keep going and exploring as it’s the best thing in the world. Cheers 🍻
Very enjoyable video. We've been to Munich for the Christmas Markets 5 times so far with the 6th time coming up this year. We're planning on finally getting to the Salzburg market this year for a day trip, and your video certainly provided more motivation! Thanks again!
Thank you so much. Were so jealous! We can't get away this year due to work. Have the best time ever! The trains are brilliant between the two and it's a totally different vibe in Salzburg. Have fun 🍻
Hi guys loved this thanks for sharing. Both look great although we have a soft spot for Saltzberg. Doesn't the snow look so christmassey. Best wishes Dave and Dawn ❤
It's Salzburg for us for sure, just so pretty, with the snow , less crowds, delicious food and every Christmas bauble imaginable, we would love to visit here❄️ 🎄🎅. We watched every one of these vlogs last year, we so enjoyed your finding Christmas series, we actually watched your silent night video on Christmas eve with our Christmas pjs on, drink in hand🍷🎅. Hopefully this will do better for you this time, as you are bringing the Christmas spirit early this year 🤞🎅. The tree is up! Love it! It looks beautiful too🎄😊👌. Ah please keep doing what you are doing and keep going guys, genuinely, yours is one of our favourite channels on your tube, your vlogs are always so engaging, funny and creative, we look forward to them every week😊👊. Really glad you met that couple, sometimes the little things like that are all it takes to give you a lift😊. Can't wait for your other Christmas vlogs we will be watching with sleigh bells on! 🎅🦌.

Ah guys thank you so much. That’s such a lovely thing to say. It was only a short grumpy time and there’s no way we’ll stop as we love it too much and we’ve met far too many amazing people like your good selves. Yes the tree is now up and Christmas has hit our house big time (the tree that managed to stay on the wall all year now fits in! 🤣). Cheers for watching and your support and have an amazing week. 🍻
The European Christmas market is an interesting phenomenon. We have some craft markets during Christmas in the USA , but these seems to have a lot more food items. All the same Merry Christmas.
Thanks for watching. In the bigger markets there are definitely more craft stall, but then again more food stalls too! We’d love to visit some USA style Christmas markets. Cheers 🍻
Amazing guys we are sat here missing going to Christmas markets and you both absolutely nailed it ❤ thanks will and rach and cheers to the good times ❤❤❤
Oh no! 🍷I heard that at the 'cheers and instantly thought, that's not a good sound. 😔! Ask Santa for a new glass Rachel. Oh I hope for snow at Christmas. The markets are so much more 'Christmassy' when those flakes flutter down. The glühwein tastes that much better. Those were lovely markets and the Christmas Cheer was definitely present everywhere. Loved the story about where the Christmas Carol was first played. It went viral as you say Rachel...and so will your channel. Patience and don't loose heart. You've come a long way in a (relatively) short time. Love your channel. Have a great weekend. 🎄🎶🇳🇱🙋♀🇳🇿 👌
You’re right. The gluhwein tastes so much better on the snow. We love both of those markets, but I think Salzburg will always be my winner. Yep, that wasn’t a healthy clink at all! Another wine glass bites the dust!!! Cheers 🍻
Great and interesting video, we've done the Munich Christmas markets and were blown away with just how many markets they had. Plus we had a bit of snow too, a great bonus. But haven't yet done Salzburg. Cool you had snow there too. Against British Chrismas markets Salzburg still looks amazing and a stunning town, but out of the two I think I prefer the Munich market. Sorry you were feeling fed up, I know how you feel as it is a slog xx Anyway guys, Halloween is gone so its the countdown to Christmas 🎅🎅🎄🎄🎅🎅
Ah thanks for watching. We love them both. Germany and Austria are just beautiful countries. We know there are a fair few markets in Munich we haven’t seen and we definitely want to go back to check them out. Cheers for watching 🍻
A little late the the game here, but what a magical video!!! We can’t wait to visit a European Christmas Market. We’ve heard both Munich and Salzburg are really nice. Based on your video though, I think Salzburg is more our speed. We can’t believe how much it was snowing!
Thank you so much. I think Wills is team Munich and I’m team Salzburg. I just love the quietness of Salzburg and that it’s laid out in little bits all over the city. Cheers for watching 🍻
Those markets looked fab with awesome and the snow looked fab 😮 we are off to Sofia Christmas Market soon (1st European Market ever) - is the it great when someone knows who you are 🎉😊 You do get a lot of comments tho - my only comments cone from you 😅 (which I appreciate ❤)
Oo have the best fun! Sounds like it’s going to be lovely in Sofia (bet it’s cheaper too!!!). We were just having a grumpy moment sorry!! I wish we could keep up to date with so many more channels, but work gets in the way! Cheers 🍻
Don't get disheartened. Love all your videos and loved watching your Xmas videos last year. It's interesting to compare the products for sale abroad compared to things sold at UK Xmas markets. Seems to be more handmade items abroad. Gutted for your wine glass 😢😢
Thanks Tasha, we just had a grumpy moment. We’re fine and love it to much to stop! We’re glad you enjoyed it and yes, new wine glass is on the cards now!!! 🍻
Great content guys! Just beautiful videos and photos and AMAZING editing! We loved it! We are already planning our month-long trip to Germany next September. Looking forward to some sausage and potato! It was fun to compare with Salzburg. I have been thinking about Austria a lot, not only because I enjoyed our two weeks there a year ago, but also because I still need to edit my Vlogs😮🙄. And even though I barely eat meat, I have been craving schnitzel! And apfel strudel of course 😋 .
Ah to have vlogs sitting there waiting to edit! You are our goal!!! A month in Germany sounds idyllic, there are some beautiful towns and cities as well as amazing nature! Jealous!! You won’t go short of sausage and potato for sure! Cheers 🍻
@@PostcardAndAPint it's a blessing and a curse! I feel like the content sits there so long it might not be relevant anymore! You must have some content in storage though, if you were able to make these videos from last year?
You guys did such a great job with the photography. Watching this really got me into the spirit of Christmas. Salzburg looks so dreamy. It's a shame you're not getting more views. Your videos are really well done. I'm not big on the sausage but I could really use a piece of that Apfelstrudel about now.
Ah thank you. Salzburg is such a gorgeous city. We’ll get the views one day, we love making the videos so we’ll keep plodding on and I believe it’s always a rubbish time for travel content! I can personally vouch for the strudel, it was amazing. Cheers 🍻
How fab! Feel all festive now! We've only ever visited the Bruges Xmas Market. We hope to have a very different Christmas experience this year. Big adventure announcement sooooon! 😂
We’ve never done Bruges but really fancy it as it’s so pretty. We did Brussels but I think that’s been our least favourite. Ooo what exciting news can that be??? Cheers 🍻
Ahh Rach and Wills, this was the PERFECT watch on my saturday evening. Both markets looked so amazing, so wholesome and fun, i think personally for me Munich would be my go to - but Salzburg too has it's amazing quirks too! Both will have to do :P Love love love the way you both create your videos, felt sad to hear that you were both feeling down about views etc, of course it's the same with us, but honestly we know how much effort you both put in and it really does show, you both have a channel to be really proud of, you inspire people to want to go to these places, that's the jackpot, but just trust me, your channel is going places, it will! Just remember us when you're hitting the big time :P This was a fabulous video, loving seeing what the markets are like in Europe! Thank you both x
Thank you so much. I think Wills is team Munich too, but to be fair they’re both gorgeous. Thanks for your kind words on our channel. I think we were just extra grumpy that day as it’s the busiest time of year for work, we can’t go away at all this year due to work and as last year, views are going down (if trends follow they’ll pick up from January and then improve!!). I don’t think we’ll ever be massive, but if we could have the channel making us enough to travel more, we’d be very happy campers (well not camping as Wills is allergic to it!). You guys will be huge one day. You are so informative and education could do well to pick up your vids - or NT or English Heritage - you certainly show the treasures we have in this country (most of which we’ve never heard of, but when we go somewhere new we always check out if you’ve found somewhere near!). We’ll all keep going and hopefully 2024 is our year. Cheers 🍻
@@PostcardAndAPint I have seen your videos your video quality is very good but your videos are not going to thousands of people because I see many problems in your videos if you want I can show your problems
Ya gotta love Munich. What an absolute sausage fest. I love a good pork. Salzburg is wonderful too. I love a good bit of strudel. Salzburg does have all that bonus fake Sound of Music history as well. I love that you can visit the actual locations of things that didn't happen that were filmed on a sound stage in Hollywood. Nice job with this video. Pretty much perfect timing. The problem with date specific videos is by the time you film them it is too late to post them so doing last year's now is a great move. Nice tree. Very pleased you got it up early. I've been trying to get mine up but haven't been as motivated yet. I'm sorry you have't been getting the views you hoped. It looks like you're travelling fine from the outside. I am going to make one of my predictions that have invariably come true except when they haven't. You will have 5000 subs by Christmas. 2024. Worst case is you could do more cruise videos to bump up he views. Any tropical islands near you? I hear the British Isles are nice this time of year. You could drop in at places like Belfast and Cardiff and that Man Island whatever it is called. Is it like one of those men only religious communities in Greece? Anyway, I'm sure you'd get dozens of views for a British Isles cruise. Anyway, that's enough engagement for one day 😉😍 Merry Christmas! 🎅🎄🍷🍻
Hahah you do make us laugh. Yep it’s a sausage fest in Germany for sure. Don’t diss the sound of music tour! We did it once and loved it. That’s on the cards for sure in future. We were just having a grumpy moment! We’ll take your prediction and run with it, that would be amazing. We’d love to do more cruises, sadly we can’t afford it!! Although today for the first time we’ve been offered a product to review! So maybe being grumpy for a while attracted some positivity!! Watch out for Wills and Rach first product review!!! Cheers 🍻
Both cities looked really lovely, if somewhat cold! Snowy Christmases aren't delightful when you've spent more years living in the Southern Hemisphere than the northern! I like the images not the reality! Don't worry about views being down this time of year, it's part of the cycle for travel content on youtube. Annoying as November and December are the highest amounts paid for the ads on the videos. Mark Wolters from the channel Woltersworld (who as he puts it is a marketing professor in his day job) often talks about the dive in views from September to January, so to feed the algorithm he posts lesser videos and saves the popular type content from January onwards when people are starting to plan for their holidays and are looking for travel content. Lifestyle (what to buy for Christmas, Amazon wishlists) seem to be the way to go this time of year!
Hahah we love a bit of snow! It really made these markets magical. Thanks for the words of encouragement. We did notice last year that we went right down in November and December but didn’t know if this was a yearly trend! I’ve watched a few of Wolters Worlds videos - he’s great. In a turn if events we’ve been offered our first product review - so we’ll get that out in the next two week and hopefully people will buy one of them for Christmas!! Cheers guys 🍻
You guys are hilarious! I am sorry your views have been down but my girlfriend and I have been really enjoying your videos. We're heading to Salzburg and Munich to experience them for the first time! We're super excited!
Oh wow jealous!!! Have the best best time. How long are you staying? Thank you for your kind words about our videos and we’re fine. This time last year our views went down too! I don’t think it’s the time of year for travel. Cheers for watching and have a brilliant Christmas market break 🍻
Great idea for a video! We may have uploaded a Christmas episode coming out this month only using last year's footage as well. You guys have added the Silent Night chapel to the top 5 on our bucket list, along with many other spots. As you know, we recently were getting down on our view count as well. Even India at the beginning wasn't doing too well and India in general is the worst place to try to make money because RUclips only gives you 40 cents per 1,000 views. Ready to move on, we decided, "Well, we have this footage from the Vande Bharat, that most people did well with, let's at least put this out before we're done with India content." And wouldn't you know it, that "throw away episode" is our highest video of all time and it got us 2,500 subscribers. There are certain topics that do well on RUclips as well as certain countries. We knew India had potential but we also flopped in Poland and some other countries that launched other people's channels. Unfortunately we often quit right before the breakthrough. You kids have all the tools you need for success. Seriously. The good news is you are not relying on RUclips to make a living, so that should take a lot of the pressure off. And if you really look at the people who finally are full time on RUclips, almost all of them have been making some kind of videos for 5 to 10 years, so we all have a long way to go. And if we have all learned this much already, just image how good we will be 5 years from now when we release our talents to the ENTIRE WORLD!
Thanks for the TED talk, we needed that! We know one day a video (probably a random one like happened for you) will do well. Wow 2500 subs off a vid, that’s amazing. Yes some of the bigger channels we follow have now been going 10 years and make a living, but the thought of having to do the day job until then is depressing!!! You guys are rocking it and we cannot wait for your Christmas footage (even if it is recycled like ours!!!). Here’s to world domination!!! Cheers 🍻
I have the same issues, holiday videos do really well, others less so. The problem is there is so much content on RUclips it is very hard to get round and watch everyone's content. I did enjoy this Christmas Market video, though. I think I'm team Salzburg.

You’re right. The gluhwein tastes so much better on the snow. We love both of those markets, but I think Salzburg will always be my winner. Yep, that wasn’t a healthy clink at all! Another wine glass bites the dust!!! Cheers 🍻
Great and interesting video, we've done the Munich Christmas markets and were blown away with just how many markets they had. Plus we had a bit of snow too, a great bonus. But haven't yet done Salzburg. Cool you had snow there too. Against British Chrismas markets Salzburg still looks amazing and a stunning town, but out of the two I think I prefer the Munich market. Sorry you were feeling fed up, I know how you feel as it is a slog xx Anyway guys, Halloween is gone so its the countdown to Christmas 🎅🎅🎄🎄🎅🎅
Ah thanks for watching. We love them both. Germany and Austria are just beautiful countries. We know there are a fair few markets in Munich we haven’t seen and we definitely want to go back to check them out. Cheers for watching 🍻
Thanks guys! Your videos have been excellent Christmas market prep!
Thank you so much! That is so kind. Have the best Christmas market time ever!!! We’re very jealous as we can’t go this year. Cheers 🍻
A little late the the game here, but what a magical video!!! We can’t wait to visit a European Christmas Market. We’ve heard both Munich and Salzburg are really nice. Based on your video though, I think Salzburg is more our speed. We can’t believe how much it was snowing!
Thank you so much. I think Wills is team Munich and I’m team Salzburg. I just love the quietness of Salzburg and that it’s laid out in little bits all over the city. Cheers for watching 🍻
@@PostcardAndAPint We agree! But I’m sure there’s a time and place for both. ☺️
Those markets looked fab with awesome and the snow looked fab 😮 we are off to Sofia Christmas Market soon (1st European Market ever) - is the it great when someone knows who you are 🎉😊
You do get a lot of comments tho - my only comments cone from you 😅 (which I appreciate ❤)
Oo have the best fun! Sounds like it’s going to be lovely in Sofia (bet it’s cheaper too!!!). We were just having a grumpy moment sorry!! I wish we could keep up to date with so many more channels, but work gets in the way! Cheers 🍻
Don't get disheartened. Love all your videos and loved watching your Xmas videos last year. It's interesting to compare the products for sale abroad compared to things sold at UK Xmas markets. Seems to be more handmade items abroad. Gutted for your wine glass 😢😢
Thanks Tasha, we just had a grumpy moment. We’re fine and love it to much to stop! We’re glad you enjoyed it and yes, new wine glass is on the cards now!!! 🍻
Great content guys! Just beautiful videos and photos and AMAZING editing! We loved it! We are already planning our month-long trip to Germany next September. Looking forward to some sausage and potato!
It was fun to compare with Salzburg. I have been thinking about Austria a lot, not only because I enjoyed our two weeks there a year ago, but also because I still need to edit my Vlogs😮🙄. And even though I barely eat meat, I have been craving schnitzel! And apfel strudel of course 😋 .
Ah to have vlogs sitting there waiting to edit! You are our goal!!! A month in Germany sounds idyllic, there are some beautiful towns and cities as well as amazing nature! Jealous!! You won’t go short of sausage and potato for sure! Cheers 🍻
@@PostcardAndAPint it's a blessing and a curse! I feel like the content sits there so long it might not be relevant anymore! You must have some content in storage though, if you were able to make these videos from last year?
@@MagentaOtterTravels same footage, different order!!! (Well some of it was unused!)
I am GONNA GO BOTH !!!!!!
That is definitely the best choice! Cheers for watching 🍻
You guys did such a great job with the photography. Watching this really got me into the spirit of Christmas. Salzburg looks so dreamy. It's a shame you're not getting more views. Your videos are really well done. I'm not big on the sausage but I could really use a piece of that Apfelstrudel about now.
Ah thank you. Salzburg is such a gorgeous city. We’ll get the views one day, we love making the videos so we’ll keep plodding on and I believe it’s always a rubbish time for travel content! I can personally vouch for the strudel, it was amazing. Cheers 🍻
How fab! Feel all festive now! We've only ever visited the Bruges Xmas Market.
We hope to have a very different Christmas experience this year. Big adventure announcement sooooon! 😂
We’ve never done Bruges but really fancy it as it’s so pretty. We did Brussels but I think that’s been our least favourite. Ooo what exciting news can that be??? Cheers 🍻
I love the idea of this video so much. It’s gonna be Saltzburg for me tho! 😊 mainly for the city rather than the market…
It’s a much more musical city for sure!! (And I’m not talking sound of music!! 🤣). Cheers
Ahh Rach and Wills, this was the PERFECT watch on my saturday evening. Both markets looked so amazing, so wholesome and fun, i think personally for me Munich would be my go to - but Salzburg too has it's amazing quirks too! Both will have to do :P Love love love the way you both create your videos, felt sad to hear that you were both feeling down about views etc, of course it's the same with us, but honestly we know how much effort you both put in and it really does show, you both have a channel to be really proud of, you inspire people to want to go to these places, that's the jackpot, but just trust me, your channel is going places, it will! Just remember us when you're hitting the big time :P This was a fabulous video, loving seeing what the markets are like in Europe! Thank you both x
Thank you so much. I think Wills is team Munich too, but to be fair they’re both gorgeous. Thanks for your kind words on our channel. I think we were just extra grumpy that day as it’s the busiest time of year for work, we can’t go away at all this year due to work and as last year, views are going down (if trends follow they’ll pick up from January and then improve!!). I don’t think we’ll ever be massive, but if we could have the channel making us enough to travel more, we’d be very happy campers (well not camping as Wills is allergic to it!). You guys will be huge one day. You are so informative and education could do well to pick up your vids - or NT or English Heritage - you certainly show the treasures we have in this country (most of which we’ve never heard of, but when we go somewhere new we always check out if you’ve found somewhere near!).
We’ll all keep going and hopefully 2024 is our year. Cheers 🍻
*wow nice video*
Thank you so much for watching 🍻
@@PostcardAndAPint I have seen your videos your video quality is very good but your videos are not going to thousands of people because I see many problems in your videos if you want I can show your problems
@@itstufayeldm thanks for watching. We have no budget to employ anyone at the moment. It’s a hobby that we know will grow slowly.
Ya gotta love Munich. What an absolute sausage fest. I love a good pork. Salzburg is wonderful too. I love a good bit of strudel. Salzburg does have all that bonus fake Sound of Music history as well. I love that you can visit the actual locations of things that didn't happen that were filmed on a sound stage in Hollywood. Nice job with this video. Pretty much perfect timing. The problem with date specific videos is by the time you film them it is too late to post them so doing last year's now is a great move.
Nice tree. Very pleased you got it up early. I've been trying to get mine up but haven't been as motivated yet.
I'm sorry you have't been getting the views you hoped. It looks like you're travelling fine from the outside. I am going to make one of my predictions that have invariably come true except when they haven't. You will have 5000 subs by Christmas. 2024. Worst case is you could do more cruise videos to bump up he views. Any tropical islands near you? I hear the British Isles are nice this time of year. You could drop in at places like Belfast and Cardiff and that Man Island whatever it is called. Is it like one of those men only religious communities in Greece? Anyway, I'm sure you'd get dozens of views for a British Isles cruise.
Anyway, that's enough engagement for one day 😉😍
Merry Christmas! 🎅🎄🍷🍻
Hahah you do make us laugh. Yep it’s a sausage fest in Germany for sure. Don’t diss the sound of music tour! We did it once and loved it. That’s on the cards for sure in future. We were just having a grumpy moment! We’ll take your prediction and run with it, that would be amazing. We’d love to do more cruises, sadly we can’t afford it!! Although today for the first time we’ve been offered a product to review! So maybe being grumpy for a while attracted some positivity!! Watch out for Wills and Rach first product review!!! Cheers 🍻
wunderbar 🎅
Danke schon! Prost 🍻
Both cities looked really lovely, if somewhat cold! Snowy Christmases aren't delightful when you've spent more years living in the Southern Hemisphere than the northern! I like the images not the reality! Don't worry about views being down this time of year, it's part of the cycle for travel content on youtube. Annoying as November and December are the highest amounts paid for the ads on the videos. Mark Wolters from the channel Woltersworld (who as he puts it is a marketing professor in his day job) often talks about the dive in views from September to January, so to feed the algorithm he posts lesser videos and saves the popular type content from January onwards when people are starting to plan for their holidays and are looking for travel content. Lifestyle (what to buy for Christmas, Amazon wishlists) seem to be the way to go this time of year!
Hahah we love a bit of snow! It really made these markets magical. Thanks for the words of encouragement. We did notice last year that we went right down in November and December but didn’t know if this was a yearly trend! I’ve watched a few of Wolters Worlds videos - he’s great. In a turn if events we’ve been offered our first product review - so we’ll get that out in the next two week and hopefully people will buy one of them for Christmas!! Cheers guys 🍻
You guys are hilarious! I am sorry your views have been down but my girlfriend and I have been really enjoying your videos. We're heading to Salzburg and Munich to experience them for the first time! We're super excited!
Oh wow jealous!!! Have the best best time. How long are you staying? Thank you for your kind words about our videos and we’re fine. This time last year our views went down too! I don’t think it’s the time of year for travel. Cheers for watching and have a brilliant Christmas market break 🍻
@PostcardAndAPint 1 day in Salzburg, 3 in Vienna and 3 day in Munich
@@joeyanes7760 have the best time ever! Were very jealous! 🍻
When do these Christmas markets start opening? What time of year?
I believe the end of this week!
You have inspired me to go!
Do! It's a fantastic city. Cheers 🍻
Salzburg looked very nice. I like Salzburg better. You I guys are so entertaining. You’re a beautiful couple
Ah bless you, thank you! It’s a slot quieter in Salzburg! Wait til next weeks Vlog - you might get a name check!!! Cheers 🍻
@@PostcardAndAPint that would be awesome. Did you get my email with my address?
Ah, yes we did. It's been a crazy busy week, but the scarf will be making it's way over to you in the next few days. Cheers
@@PostcardAndAPint the red dragons are in second place all by themselves!!
The markets are Christmas themed already?
This was last year!! But I believe they open at the end of this week. Cheers for watching 🍻
Is it snowing right now in Munich??
This was filmed last year on Dec 15th ish - it didn’t stop snowing the whole time we were there. 🍻
Great idea for a video! We may have uploaded a Christmas episode coming out this month only using last year's footage as well. You guys have added the Silent Night chapel to the top 5 on our bucket list, along with many other spots. As you know, we recently were getting down on our view count as well. Even India at the beginning wasn't doing too well and India in general is the worst place to try to make money because RUclips only gives you 40 cents per 1,000 views. Ready to move on, we decided, "Well, we have this footage from the Vande Bharat, that most people did well with, let's at least put this out before we're done with India content." And wouldn't you know it, that "throw away episode" is our highest video of all time and it got us 2,500 subscribers. There are certain topics that do well on RUclips as well as certain countries. We knew India had potential but we also flopped in Poland and some other countries that launched other people's channels. Unfortunately we often quit right before the breakthrough. You kids have all the tools you need for success. Seriously. The good news is you are not relying on RUclips to make a living, so that should take a lot of the pressure off. And if you really look at the people who finally are full time on RUclips, almost all of them have been making some kind of videos for 5 to 10 years, so we all have a long way to go. And if we have all learned this much already, just image how good we will be 5 years from now when we release our talents to the ENTIRE WORLD!
Thanks for the TED talk, we needed that! We know one day a video (probably a random one like happened for you) will do well. Wow 2500 subs off a vid, that’s amazing. Yes some of the bigger channels we follow have now been going 10 years and make a living, but the thought of having to do the day job until then is depressing!!! You guys are rocking it and we cannot wait for your Christmas footage (even if it is recycled like ours!!!). Here’s to world domination!!! Cheers 🍻
@@PostcardAndAPint 🍻
You’re so funny. You said beer hall but I swear it sounded like beer hole. That sausage and potatoes did not look very good.
Beer hole beer hall!! It’s all the same! The potatoes in Bavaria are amazing. Cheers 🍻
