@@paullewis2413 Hey! 😊I’m a former Londoner and totally get the sentiment. I used to feel just like that. The city would somehow burn out its residents, so much so that almost every time people took time off work, they’d get the heck out of there as soon as they could. However, I don’t think there’s any other place on the planet where one can be as stimulated as London. For those who appreciate having one’s mind energized, and being surrounded by incredible beauty, there’s simply no other city like it. Its main pitfall is that its local economy doesn’t support living in the best districts of the city, and enjoying everything the city has to offer. Luckily though, you have many free world-class museums and beautifully-manicured parks. I’m of the opinion that to truly experience London, one has to live in Central London. I lived in both Central London (South Ken) and the suburbs (Bromley), and nothing beats the former. But yes, granted you’ll get less square footage for you money. (edited for typos)

the lighting (both artificial and natural) is absolutely stunning! As always thank you for filming all these videos. A very nice substitute for the real thing during an unusual time
Amen...Such beautiful work.I live here in the States too.No Thanksgiving.How dare they.Thank God I live in Missouri.Our Gov said no statewide regulations.PERIOD.😅👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much for this video and for the captions with info!! I would love to live in London, it's one of my dreams, but unfortunately it's not possible, at least not for now. I enjoy these virtual walks. Thank you! 💛
As always.. BEAUTIFUL.Again your cemetery one a few weeks ago.AMAZING.Sooo cool.I live here in the States,but your vids are like being there.Im glad you have a small community on here.We are like a cozy little family.Another of my faves was Christmas one you had last year.You went thru this back ally,and it opened up to a bunch of little shops in OLD buildings.It was like a tucked away little area.Christmas lights everywhere.It looked like a modern day Dickens novel.Your THE BEST.And yes I'll donate to get you that cup of coffee.😅👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you Michael, and that coffee would be gratefully received! That alley leading to shops may have been Neal's Yard in the Seven Dials area, it very much sounds like it. It's great to hear you enjoyed my cemetery walk, I had put off doing it for a while but was happy with how it came out - it's even starting to get a little bit of traction now in terms of views. Take care!
I've been in london for 4 days in 2012. I can't forget it. I miss almost everyday. Maybe I get lucky one day and come back to there. Thank you for these videos.
Oasis, London, sun, my dream! thank u! I deeply desire that the pandemic be controlled and that people can live normally without so many worries. It is too beautiful to see a city alive.
looks amazing, and i live here! Thank you for your vids. all the building work going on since April is crazy, no one knows why or what the digging is about
You're welcome Honey O! There sure is a lot of digging happening. I just looked online and it just mentions utility works on Piccadilly. Regent Street is widening the pavement. I guess they are making the most of less traffic to get various works done.
you have no idea how jealous i am. i feel like london does something to people but i can't put my finger on what that is. i just know that i was there for 10 days and now every day is a reminder that I'm not anymore
Hi Watched Walker, I've been watching your videos for over a year now, they inspired me to make some of my own. But I'm walking my Siberian huskies in my walking videos. I made a similar intro like yours as I think yours is brilliant. I hope you don't mind. I always thumbs up your videos. Something about them relaxes me when I watch them full screen on a big screen. Keep up the great videos. -Johanna & Billy Bob & the Siberian Husky Sisters
Am from lancashire up north,use to visit London once a year for many years,i love the place,had some great times there,it's never boring,i need to go again soon in summer 2021 i hope,i luv to stay in a hotel or a b&b,i had a friend live and work there in mayfair i use to stay with,but he moved when the job ended ,great times.
yeah. i was there for only like 10 days but every day i wake up and i miss it so freaking much. that city has done something to me i just cannot explain. how i wish i was there, you have just no idea.
We had another trip planned that included time in London again, but because of Covid it was cancelled.Such disappointment, but watching your videos gives a sense of what I enjoy so much about the city!
You must really be fit. I know this much, you really enjoy getting the exercise. Thanks again for the look around. You just reminded me of the Christmas picnic package my dad brought home from Fortnum and Mason when I was about eleven. I still have the basket.
It's something,we all around the world used to complain about crowds,now we are happy to see a few people out.I live in the States,and some areas cracking down BAD.

As a Londoner I have a love/hate relationship with the place but ultimately I know it’s the greatest city on earth, no contest.

For those of us who can't be there in person this year, your videos are an absolute blessing. Thank you !
London West End filmed at early evening conveys all of its special atmosphere, sober and elegant. Watched Walker, the reporter meets the artist.
Thanks EI, love that description!
The most beautiful video on Internet
Thanks so much!
Worked in London for 23 years and I never get bored of it, these videos are special, thanks, keep up the great work.
Thanks very much Andy!
Imagine watching this 100 years later, crystal clear footage of the world in 2020. Keep up the amazing work, you are much appreciated
100 years from now, they will look at these and say, how quaint! 2d video!
I love this area, so much character in these streets!
It's a private estate belonging to the Crown. That's why it looks so nice. Other parts of London are not like this.
the way you add description into the buildings, monuments and streets are just excellent. I love it!!
Thanks Sheryl, glad you find them useful!
6:30 I think sky blue is so pretty. 20:23 It makes me want to run to London right away. I think I'll be very happy walking there. 😥😥😥😥😥
Oh London, London, London I have never seen you but you have been my fav since childhood.
One day I'm gonna walk these streets, one day!
My hometown
@@skuzzlebutt33 you are so lucky 😊

London seems to be a pleasant city in the morning. Thank you for this very nice morning walk! 😁
Thanks Castel, though it was an evening walk!
@@WatchedWalkerOMG, i said "Morning" ! Sorry, i meant "evening". 😅 Thanks for correcting me.
This was a SUNSET walk.
Amazingly beautiful walking tour at sunset time ! Thanks for sharing this awesome walking video, watching from Ireland 🇮🇪☘️☘️
Thank you WW!
These walks help like a meditation during this Thanksgiving time- we are told not to celebrate!!
Keep walking for all of us🤗
LL, I'll do my best to! 🙂

Very nice sunset walking, Thanks
Great architectural building designs WW! Stay safe!
I just wanted to say that these videos really help with my anxiety, or when im trying to calm down after a panic attack. thank you :)
One of the most beautiful videos I've ever seen, hope one day walk there! Greetings from Colombia!
Never get tired to watch your London videos 💯
Thanks Angelique!
Absolutely beautiful, I walked those streets thousands of times and how do I miss it now living on the other side of the world.

Spectacular colours... great work! Thanks for posting.
You have a lovey and interesting thumbnails outside and inside your walk is fantastic, wonderful night walk.💎👍

all the building work going on since April is crazy, no one knows why or what the digging is about
You're welcome Honey O! There sure is a lot of digging happening. I just looked online and it just mentions utility works on Piccadilly. Regent Street is widening the pavement. I guess they are making the most of less traffic to get various works done.
I agree with you 🌷
buildings that are so magnificent friends, like a royal building
This area belongs to the Crown Estate so you're not far wrong.
Hi, I look forward to the walk, thanks.
Thank you very much for this incredible walk. I felt like i was there. I miss London so much
Beautiful walk - love the evening sky 💙🧡

This is the my city, city of birth and where I live, I love living in London.
