Haven't finished watching this series BUT can I just say how much I love that you went on vacation to CA vs. France to fashion week like other British sloggers I watch...same content...same outfits...same same same. Then there's Emma - LOVE that!
I so hope you are enjoying your trip. It is fun seeing the things you see in our own backyard from someone else's perspective. I forget how beautiful it really is. We drive through to go to our destination and don't stop to look at the beauty. Time to stop and smell the trees! Hope you went back to the glacier as it really is an interesting tour.
Soooo happy and grateful you and Simon are sharing this spectacular trip, with all of us! :) Continue enjoying your road trip, moments like these are forever! you both look very happy! Canada is definitely now on my bucket list :) Big Hugs to everyone. Happy Wednesday!
We had elk licking salt off our vehicle and others when we stopped for gas in Jasper years ago...they would just wander around town like it's nothing unusual. Thank you for the wildlife note. Many visitors don't understand the risks when visiting here 🇨🇦. Glad you're enjoying your trip! ♥️
I love alllllllll your videos but the one with the animals gets to me in the gut! I seriously love animals the way you do!! I would have been on the side of the road at every one of those stops talking to the elk and moose as if they were pets. Seeing animals and being with animals is everything. It just really makes an already great fashion and beauty RUclipsr like you, even better.
This week is just awesome, both you and Helen Anderson are posting vlogs from Canada! Thank you for taking us with you on this amazing trip and I can't wait for the next thrifting video
Can you please do a sit down video of how you planned this whole trip start from finish and if there’s anything you’d need to know / apply for before you go? How it all works etc? X
Love Simons Boy Scout skills, A1 fire 🔥 for sure. Thank you so much for sharing your trip, I made my hubby watch some highlights (he’s not a RUclips watcher) and now we are both adding Alberta Canada to our vacation list. It’s just so beautiful!
Good job Emma and Simon. Brave choice to come to Alberta but well worth it. I was happy to hear it was one of the places you visited that lived up to expectation. Tourism is not a big deal here, but Alberta is home to 5 national parks, with the most visited park across Canada being Banff. Your trip to Jasper was evocative. My first trip there was in 1982, I was 12 years old and we stayed at Becker’s, I remember the first thing I did was walk along that river by myself for an hour. I had never seen anything like it and was thoroughly fascinated., Over the years, Tekkara, JPL and others became well travelled by our family as we’re based in Edmonton and slightly closer by drive to Jasper. We are well familiar with Banff and environs as well, though the last time I was there, Banff/Lake Louise, was on an August visit when my father’s 5 surviving sisters finally came deeper in to visit us in Alberta. I highly recommend to anyone wanting to avoid the crush of tourists, as an Albertan we do not go at these times unless unavoidable, such as the trip with my Aunts, If/When you return. You should check out the Watertown Lakes Park, which is also a national park and is also very beautiful. We have not spend much time there but plan to in the coming year. Apparently they have the largest network of hiking trails of all kinds in the world. Stunning landscapes. We were there in September. Thank you for visiting our beautiful province. Oh, early July is great as well as most everything is in or is beginning to bloom.
Totally understand the beautiful of the landscape. I live in Colorado USA. We have home facing mountains in town. Then a mountain home in Winter Park. Skiing, snowmobiles, biking, and hiking year round and so much more. The mountains are peaceful. The waterfalls are breathtaking. Moose and fox walk by our porch. 🥰
That sounds amazing ❤️ We have been to Colorado once and loved it - Seven Falls in Colorado Springs was beautiful. Then we spent a night in Denver before driving through the Rockies 😍
Love your vlogs. The two of you are so cute and endearing together. The Columbia glacier is where the Columbia River starts. You might look up the Columbia River. It separates the two states of Oregon and Washington and then empties into the Pacific Ocean on the west coast of United States.
Dont know why but this vlog made me really emotional,i think its the beauty of the country and the animals,just wonderful,,i adore your hat Emma,really suits you,,im off to Cornwall this weekend ,bit more beauty to look at xxx
You got some beautiful footage in this vlog! We had a huge problem with mountain pine beetles destroying large tracts of forest. Between that and fires, you will see a lot of dead trees. We pronounce Malign like muh-lean. Emphasis on the second syllable. Can’t wait for vlog 3.
We did a very similar road trip in 2017, but summer. The forest fires were horrendous then: blocked out the sky. Despite that British Columbia is stunning & we saw a small black bear family. I’m enjoying reliving our trip through yours!
I love your vids emma, the only thing I want to mention is that music. Is there any chance you can change it up a bit ? I know that youtube music choice isn't great, don't know the ins and outs though. So am not having a go, just a question really. Love the quality of the vids and the scenery in canada is incredible ! xx
There is quite a big selection but its finding something that we like (and can stand listening to 100 times whilst we edit and rewatch the video 😂) But I take your point, it is time we had another search and updated our list. 👍🏼
Emma Hill How does it work, if you wanted to use an independent artist’s music ? Say, someone that is not known or famous or anything. Just makes music ? Is that very ££ for you guys ? Am just thinking, maybe that would be nicer if you tubers, started to support independent artists, that don’t have a record deal or anything and just need a little boost. I dunno, just thinking allowed. Hope you’re well btw xx
Loving your Canada road trip think this has been the best by far. Watching you and Simon though makes me feel nostalgic. Think it's remembering when we were younger and everything felt really exciting. When Simon was standing close to the cliff edge my husband would do that he was like a mountain goat and I'd be scared witless :)) We still have great holidays together but realise we don't have adventures as such. Roll on the next one..Simon, your 'stick' is called a poker! 😂 🐃🐿🐾 Xx
You all are getting me in the mood for cabins in the mountains! What beautiful scenery 😍😍❤️👍! Simon, good job on the 🔥. Don't you love exploring new places? Did you get your bear claws? Thanks for sharing this with us. I have enjoyed the trip 😊. I feel like I'm there with you. You all crack me up 😂. Looking forward to the next one! Hope you have a great day!❣️
You two really party, roaring fire, mask and all 😂 I can't believe the glacier has receded so far back 😭. So glad you had such nice weather for your trip!
In case you didn’t find out why all the trees around Medicine Lake were dead, it’s because there was a fire in July 2015. It was caused by a lightening strike that smouldered underground for several days. They had to evacuate about 1,000 people from the backcountry. We could see the smoke from town. Luckily we got quite a good rainfall shortly after.
Yes very comfortable 👍🏼 although didn't do any all day hikes, the longest was the lake Louise one (I think) although we done lots of shorter ones and general walking around town etc. 👍🏼
More gorgeousness! Such amazing views. And you both look great, obviously having a great time. (Did Simon have to spend a lot of time cleaning his lovely white trainers after walking all over the grass and wet trails? Or maybe he's just super-coordinated? I kept thinking, eeeeek, your white shoes! lol) So happy for you! Can't wait to see the rest of your Canada adventures too! xo [By the way, poutine is from Quebec specifically (I lived in Montreal for a few years and back then it was just a weird thing that Quebecers ate, including my nine-foot-tall hockey-playing boyfriend at the time...so weird that it's become a worldwide thing now) and the pronunciation in Quebec French *is* more like "poo-tin". Obviously a European French speaker would say "poo-teen". ]
🤣 it wasn't actually too muddy. I was meant to pick some walking shoes up before we left but I didn't have time. Although the trainers faired really well 👍
Oh very interesting, thank you👍 & yes someone else mentioned the beetle and I'm sure we saw it on the news at some point, or in a paper maybe. Hopefully it can be controlled.
We did see some in Lake Louise - someone was having a guided tour/was with a local who was pointing them out and explaining so we stayed and listened for a while. 👍🏼
Emma Hill oh that’s awesome! We always say every year we’re going to see them but we never end up going cuz it’s a long hike! 😂 hahaha. And I’ve been in Calgary for 30 years!! And we’ve never gone to jasper! Crazy! I love that you guys came here to vacation. ❤️🇨🇦
Were the same in London (and surrounding areas though) when its on your doorstep, sometimes your less inclined to do it. We should really take more advantage of the British countryside too as its beautiful. 😍
Arkala Simon, defo deserved your camp fire badge 😂 those cabins were so comfy looking. The scenery is amazing it sure is on my bucket list 👍 but I might just leave my ‘designer’ footwear at home, proper walking boots for me 😂 can’t wait for the next instalment x
All the giggling about the stick. I was waiting for you both to zone out in front of the open file. Eh voila, all goes quite then the mask. my cheeks ache. Thanks for the inspirating footage. safe journeys guys
I see you guys are having a great time !! The place is beautiful and Simon is thinking he's Indiana Jones !! You looked great dressed as a lumberjack!!!
Haven't finished watching this series BUT can I just say how much I love that you went on vacation to CA vs. France to fashion week like other British sloggers I watch...same content...same outfits...same same same. Then there's Emma - LOVE that!
Oh fashion weeks aren't my cup of tea anymore. Would much rather be in a nice log cabin with a log fire burning and Mother Nature outside 😍
OMG - Emma’s reaction coming out of that outhouse… Priceless! Same for the facemask. You guys are adorable. Awesome video - thanks for sharing💗
You're right Emma, gotta keep our distance from the wild animals :) Keeps them safe! So appreciated :)
I love y'all's chemistry together!!!
I so hope you are enjoying your trip. It is fun seeing the things you see in our own backyard from someone else's perspective. I forget how beautiful it really is. We drive through to go to our destination and don't stop to look at the beauty. Time to stop and smell the trees! Hope you went back to the glacier as it really is an interesting tour.

Thank you ❤️
Your vlogs are my favorite. Wanna go to Canada so badly now!
The reflection in the lakes are stunning xx
Some of the trees you seen are dying from the western pine beetle.
We had elk licking salt off our vehicle and others when we stopped for gas in Jasper years ago...they would just wander around town like it's nothing unusual. Thank you for the wildlife note. Many visitors don't understand the risks when visiting here 🇨🇦. Glad you're enjoying your trip! ♥️
Simon and his Gucci trainers in the wilderness lol love it!! such a London fashion guy ✨
😂 Can take the man out of London but can't take London out of the man 😂
That dollhouse cabin with the roaring log fire is my idea of heaven...x
I absolutely LOVE these videos, Emma. So glad you both had an amazing time!
I went to jasper last month and it was hands down the most beautiful place. Everyday I’m sad for having to leave and I can’t wait to go back one day!
Wow! What a wonderful experience you guys are having!!
I love alllllllll your videos but the one with the animals gets to me in the gut! I seriously love animals the way you do!! I would have been on the side of the road at every one of those stops talking to the elk and moose as if they were pets. Seeing animals and being with animals is everything.

I can’t get over the colour of those lakes! Definitely on my bucket list! 👌🏻
Loving your videos guys . I can almost taste that lovely fresh air. Ohhh those lakes the colours are stunning. Have s great n safe journey guys.
I have a farm in Essex and lucky to have deer on lawn early morn n late evening. Love the outdoors .
Can you please do a sit down video of how you planned this whole trip start from finish and if there’s anything you’d need to know / apply for before you go? How it all works etc? X
Thank you so much Emma for sharing this vlog of your Canada trip , absolutely beautiful!
Loving this trip. You two crack me up 😂 xx
Omg...that is a beautiful place to be 🐻🐿🌲🏔
Well done to Simon and his stick action lol 😂
Love Simons Boy Scout skills, A1 fire 🔥 for sure. Thank you so much for sharing your trip, I made my hubby watch some highlights (he’s not a RUclips watcher) and now we are both adding Alberta Canada to our vacation list. It’s just so beautiful!

Thank you for the recommendation ❤️ We will definitely be back when we can ❤️
LOL Emma smelling the trees after using the outhouse! So many beautiful views!!
Lived in BC most of my life and never made it out this way - looks so incredible!! Need to visit soon 🥰
love how happy you look in these canada vlogs🙌🙌🙌
yay for poutine!!!+
This trip is so amazing! Love following along. :) xx
omg I was in Jasper last winter to ski and I absolutely loved it!!
I bet it looked beautiful with all the snow 😍
OMG It's so wonderful, I can feel the fresh air of North America !
Loved your travel blogs : ) Canada is amazing ❤️
Yes I have been waiting for the next installment of your trip!!!

You guys are making me want to road trip in Canada!
Love your vlogs. The two of you are so cute and endearing together. The Columbia glacier is where the Columbia River starts. You might look up the Columbia River. It separates the two states of Oregon and Washington and then empties into the Pacific Ocean on the west coast of United States.
Dont know why but this vlog made me really emotional,i think its the beauty of the country and the animals,just wonderful,,i adore your hat Emma,really suits you,,im off to Cornwall this weekend ,bit more beauty to look at xxx
I hope you have a great time down there and hope the weather is OK. 👍🏼
This was delightful! Thank you for sharing!
Loving this travel series guys!! Even it was slightly disturbing the footage of Emma in her mask thing! Keeping it real Simon and Emma. X
You got some beautiful footage in this vlog! We had a huge problem with mountain pine beetles destroying large tracts of forest. Between that and fires, you will see a lot of dead trees.
We pronounce Malign like muh-lean. Emphasis on the second syllable. Can’t wait for vlog 3.
I also cant believe how much the glacier has changed in last 12 years, wow!!! :(
16:35 OMG. Haha, glad you are enjoying Canada. It's a fantastic country - especially west of the Rockies ;)
Watching again Aug 2020 enjoyed it first time so here i am again, the scenery is incredable as is the video's xxx
I love love love these videos. Fantastic roadtrip. Simon you did a great job filming. Can't wait for the third. X
Thank you, glad your enjoying them. 😁
Great river ... We also have such in Bavaria and Austria too.
Incredible canyon. Never seen such a height ...
Waffle hut ... good idea!
We did a very similar road trip in 2017, but summer. The forest fires were horrendous then: blocked out the sky. Despite that British Columbia is stunning & we saw a small black bear family. I’m enjoying reliving our trip through yours!
I love Tekarra lodge!!!! OMG! it's had some updates since the 80s. 😂😂😂💜
😂 Yes they have modernised them a little but not too much, they are still beautiful and cosy, we loved them too 👍🏼
I live in Alberta, I've been to Jasper, I celebrated Canada Day there! I'm planning a road trip back when I'm older, I miss the beauty so much 💕
I love your vids emma, the only thing I want to mention is that music. Is there any chance you can change it up a bit ?

Sophie Louise I agree. It’s not bad music at all, just mighty repetitive but maybe the selection is slim.
I like it I associate wit the travel videos 😀
There is quite a big selection but its finding something that we like (and can stand listening to 100 times whilst we edit and rewatch the video 😂) But I take your point, it is time we had another search and updated our list. 👍🏼

Thanks for taking us along!! You are SO funny 🤣 Love the wildlife🤓 Emma was priceless coming out of the outhouse 🙊🙈🇨🇦

Roll on the next one..Simon, your 'stick' is called a poker! 😂 🐃🐿🐾 Xx
I'm hoping you managed to see Moraine Lake and Peyto Lake on your trip. Both a bit challenging to access due to crowds, but are stunning.
I was on a very similar trip when I was a moody miserable 13 year old. I enjoyed it much more with you and Simon 37 years later
😂
You're really making me want to do a staycation this year 🇨🇦 haven't done the jasper/Banff road trip for awhile. The mountains are calling 🏔
Yea. You see a lot of wild animals in that area..reminds of my trip years ago. Love u guys❤️
Jasper is a really beautiful place ! Enjoy ! 👌👌
Another great video Emma. Oh and Simon of course. x
Love the video guys! You're hilarious!😂Thank you for sharing! ❤️👍😍
You all are getting me in the mood for cabins in the mountains! What beautiful scenery 😍😍❤️👍!
Simon, good job on the 🔥.
Don't you love exploring new places? Did you get your bear claws?
Thanks for sharing this with us. I have enjoyed the trip 😊. I feel like I'm there with you. You all crack me up 😂. Looking forward to the next one! Hope you have a great day!❣️
Love your hat Emma, and yes Simon your is nice as well. Glad you guys are enjoying the beautiful Jasper❤️
😁🤣
Ok, it’s going seriously mad, now I wanna get there! I just need to see it by my own 😍😍😍 goal to achieve🚀
This is beautiful!
I loved this! thank you!
You two really party, roaring fire, mask and all 😂 I can't believe the glacier has receded so far back 😭. So glad you had such nice weather for your trip!
Love the sound of that crackling fire. You look great with that mask on Emma😃
Beautiful 🌲 🏔reminds me of my school town of Nainital on the hills of the Himalayas !
You reeeeally should do s’mores! I started making them with a toasted marshmallow and two chocolate covered digestives and it’s amaaaazing
You in your Uggs, Simon in Gucci trainers to hike..... love it, love it! Enjoying these Canada vlogs so much!!!
Emma, only you can be so stylish when hiking. Love your outfits.
Beautiful memories! Love the AB check jacket, what size did you purchase? @emmahill
Amazing, Spectacular views . Cannot wait for vlog 3 E &S .Great editing Simon👍 and goodchoice of outfits Emma. Cheers Xx
Glad your enjoying them 👍😁

“Is it Putin or poutine?” “I think it’s more poutine, isn’t it.” 😂
Welcome to Alberta!!! Enjoy what Jasper has to offer! I live about 4 hours away from Jasper! 👋🏼
We really enjoyed Jasper 👍🏼😍
Great blog. Love u two
Oh my you had me laughing so hard.... “Lady Deer” you’re so cute. 🤣
Looks amazing putting me in the mood to visit Canada 🐝🙀❤️
Great vlogs Emma!
Hi Emma inspired me to go ,how have u found the M&S boots for hiking in ..?
Yes very comfortable 👍🏼 although didn't do any all day hikes, the longest was the lake Louise one (I think) although we done lots of shorter ones and general walking around town etc. 👍🏼
I was there this week, amazing view
Hope you had a fantastic time 👍🏼
More gorgeousness! Such amazing views. And you both look great, obviously having a great time.

🤣 it wasn't actually too muddy. I was meant to pick some walking shoes up before we left but I didn't have time. Although the trainers faired really well 👍
Love how everyone stops to see the animals and no one cares that there are cars all parked up 😍😍😍 like unwritten rules 😍😍
We call that green moss on the trees witches hair. It is a valuable survival tool for starting a camp fire.
Oh very interesting, thank you👍 & yes someone else mentioned the beetle and I'm sure we saw it on the news at some point, or in a paper maybe. Hopefully it can be controlled.
Awesome! So beautiful. 😊🌲🌳🐾🐑🐻
Yay Jasper hasn't changed, beautiful. The fries! Drool...😍
Jasper was so nice, we loved it 😍
How did you rent your hut on the road?
You guys should’ve checked out the larches! They are the only evergreens to turn yellow.
We did see some in Lake Louise - someone was having a guided tour/was with a local who was pointing them out and explaining so we stayed and listened for a while. 👍🏼
Emma Hill oh that’s awesome! We always say every year we’re going to see them but we never end up going cuz it’s a long hike! 😂 hahaha. And I’ve been in Calgary for 30 years!! And we’ve never gone to jasper! Crazy! I love that you guys came here to vacation. ❤️🇨🇦
Were the same in London (and surrounding areas though) when its on your doorstep, sometimes your less inclined to do it. We should really take more advantage of the British countryside too as its beautiful. 😍
Men love building fires. Well done, Simon! Glorious scenery beautifully photographed.
Just think of all the brave men and women from England that came to settle Canada. Quite different from England isn’t it?
I well I'm still waiting in Toronto on my porch for you.... it's getting cold...😜
😍
Lovely vidio looks like you are having a great time scenery looks amazi🌲🌲🦌🌵ng
Arkala Simon, defo deserved your camp fire badge 😂 those cabins were so comfy looking. The scenery is amazing it sure is on my bucket list 👍 but I might just leave my ‘designer’ footwear at home, proper walking boots for me 😂 can’t wait for the next instalment x
i'm from the maritimes and we mostly say poutin- no "eeeeen" but it depends on where you are!!
loved seeing you in Canada btw!!!
All the giggling about the stick. I was waiting for you both to zone out in front of the open file. Eh voila, all goes quite then the mask. my cheeks ache. Thanks for the inspirating footage. safe journeys guys
I see you guys are having a great time !! The place is beautiful and Simon is thinking he's Indiana Jones !! You looked great dressed as a lumberjack!!!
PS. I also have family in Boston and thought Salem was a bit disappointing when we first visited there.=
Lmao 😂 you two... that fire 🔥 side romance scene was the best. Very cozy with you mask on Emma 🤣
Great vlogs, thank you for sharing your travels! The music is a bit jarring though against the calm serene visuals
wonderful vlog!
