#belfast #northernireland #talkingtostrangers
Lived in Belfast my whole life. Them 3 kids are gems. That's the sort of attitude that is needed to get past all the issues from the past.
And yes: ''Strangers are friends you haven't met yet''. The Wisdom of the Traveller.
I love that one.
A quote to live by!
Yeah. Stupid though isn't it? It's suggesting you'd be friends with 100% of the people you meet. Pretty sure it isn't true.
May i quote to you from my personal book of law:
Chapter 1; 1st Law:
Everybody's my friend until proven otherwise.
@@chriswatchingponies9877 I'm Belfast born and bred [unfortunately]. Well, if your're in Northern Ireland and especially in Belfast, people can prove it to you real quick ...
My dads side of the family came from N Ireland...Ulster Co.......in 1921 settled in the Bronx NY. He made N Ireland proud fought in WW2 came home got a MBA and became a executive with IBM Headquarters in Manhattan. Well done Dad your were the best! RIP
He sounds like a legend! ❤️
Ulster is a province and part of it is in the Republic of Ireland, as well as N Ireland
Lewis , Brandon and Joy , wonderful ! Thanks for this made me laugh and gave me hope especially those 3 young people so respectful and friendly, done Belfast proud.
Just because someone says they're nice doesn't mean they are.
@@aijadawddaw Belfast people are good at doing the oh-so-friendly act when outsiders are around.
Do you include yourself in that observation? Or do you have a chip on your shoulder?@@paulohagan3309
They're repeating what they are hearing at home
As someone from just outside of Belfast living in Germany this was a really nice video to see. Our youth get a bit of a bad rep at times but it was great to see those young people treat you well and show you around.
My uncle was from Derry and left Northern Ireland and moved to Italy! He left due to the Troubles but wanted to stay in Europe instead of going to North America or Australia. He had a hard time deciding between France or Spain so he ended up choosing Italy. He thought he would stay for a couple of years but ended up marrying my aunt and had kids. Because of the political tension, my family every single summer hosted my Irish cousins. Even though we are not biologically related, I consider them blood. My relatives in Italy had no issues taking in any of our cousins as my uncle came from a HUGE family. We wanted them to have a trip away during marching season. Many of my cousins did do some summer jobs around the area. Our neighbours called it the "Irish Invasion" 😄. I was the only Italian cousin who decided to move there to study in Belfast. What I loved about Belfast was that it felt like a city in the countryside. You had the Lough, castle and most of all when I woke up in the mornings to look outside I could see the rolling hills. The city is so walkable, clean and despite its past and reputation I felt safer walking alone at night as a woman than I would in some other major cities. Everything was so easy to get to by foot. The people and their hospitality were not only gracious but very genuine.
Great memories.. 🎉
Those teens were so cute... hopefully their generation can break that cycle of violence and won't pass it down to their own children.
Absolutely.. this world needs that
Those kids who took you to the dome were so hospitable.❤
Great video. I’m from NI and you got a really great cross section of modern day society. You got a liberal couple, a North Coastie, asylum seeker and some post conflict generation teenagers that are still dealing with some of the scars of division. Awesome work.
Thanks Nasha! I thought everyone's stories were very interesting.
Right! The variety of back grounds in this video is amazing. Makes me wonder what the group of guys would have said if she had brought up the troubles with them.
Economic migrant. Or just a little bum
Visited Belfast last year and took a Tour to the Giants Causeway, the towns were gorgeous as was the entire northern coast. Also took the History of Terror given by university professors that took us to all the historical areas of the conflicts during The Troubles. Their police station looks like a prison unlike the one in Dublin.
My Irish friends said to take the Black Cab Tour and to be careful because they would be biased. Unfortunately my driver had COVID so I wasn’t able to take this tour. Everyone on the plane over to Dublin and in Dublin told me to visit Belfast and visit the Titanic Museum. It’s true that the people are warm, friendly and kind. Will be returning again this year.
@@thcdavies8479you sound like a bigot. Shameful!
Wow. I am really impressed by this vid. So many surprises in it, plus no hype, no BS and very good basic connection with ordinary human beings with their story to tell. Keep it up and thank you. I haven't been anywhere in Ireland in over 50 years. A lot of changes.
Moved to Belfast from London last year, love the city and its friendly inhabitants. Everywhere is close, including some stunning scenery. Oh, and it's a lot cheaper than London and Dublin.
I find myself wanting to go to every place Kristin visits because her videos like this are so real and informative.
Thank you so much! 😊
This is a very genuine video Kristin. Your coversation with the working class teenagers and their view of the division between communities in Belfast was fascinating. Well done!
Those teens in hoodies were so adorable ❤❤❤
I was bought up Catholic (Im Australian) and I'd like to give those young boys a big, fat hug. That made me so sad hearing what they said. Those young one's teach us an important lesson ❤
Sound like well balanced teenagers. They are the future, so everything will turn out fine.
I watched the whole video and thank you for the free tour. After hearing all the interview that you have made. You just make me feel more secured since my family will be transferring there for good this year. Thank you and more power to your TH-cam channel
Just thought I'd give a bit of my two cents, so you can see the three lads from Belfast are uncomfortable talking about the government in a direct way, that feeds into a bit what the young teens were talking about in terms of the lingering issues around the troubles.
So at present, our government has been suspended (not the first time in the past decade mind) over protocols that have occured post Brexit. Essentially, no new policy can be made, and that means the cost of living pressures are not being addressed with like they are eslewhere in the UK/Ireland.
The reasoning behind the current suspension is that the leading protestant/loyalist party, DUP, does not like the sea border (trade checks/levies etc) between Northern Ireland and 'mainland' UK that has been placed as a result of terms of the Good Friday agreement (a major political resolution that more or less 'ended' the troubles, resulted in power sharing etc). Essentially, in terms of trade at least, it was either a boarder between the rest of the UK or the South of Ireland/EU, and the agreement required that there wasn't any hard border with Ireland. But also, for the first time, Sinn Fein (catholic/republican) recently became the leading party, that would see the first Irish First Minister of Northern Ireland. However, due to the suspension of parliament, we've not been able to see this in action, so to speak.
So yeah it's a minefield for locals to talk about as it'll quickly betray where your allegiance lay if you are directly critical of say, the DUP's actions, or show support for their protest. And generally speaking, it's still tricky to talk too openly about that stuff in a public setting.
As for the teens, it saddens me they still talk like that, I'd imagined that stuff was less frequent these days but it carries through the generations, especially the poorer areas. The thing is, you can as easily imagine the Catholic youths saying the same of them, ie, 'its them that jump us, won't give us a xhance' etc. It's just ongoing fear and tribalism that way
I'm primarily of one of these backgrounds but have mixed ancestry and was never raised into either 'side', culture, so to speak. I also went to an integrated school- Most schooling here is catholic or protestant; we have an education apartheid to this day. It's no wonder then things don't move on more with that kind of thing in mind.
I hope this is informative and makes sense haha.
That was really interesting. Thanks; I picked up their discomfort but wasn't sure what it related to.
At 13 they know nothing about government. Did you?
I am from Cork in the south of Ireland and unfortunately have never been to Northern Ireland as when we were young the "Troubles" were going on.I lived in America most of the time. But the next time I visit Ireland I'm definitely going to Belfast.
Good luck Kristen ,you have a nice speaking voice and you have a great way of expressing yourself.
Cork is beautiful.. even surfboarding beautiful women friendly guys .. Belfast for me is to much like Glasgow
Hello joe
@@patrickglennon7058👍
I love these videos when you interview people on the street, they are so informative. Your caution about being nice because you don't know what someone is going through is excellent advice whether you are traveling or at home. It's nice that the young men took you to the dome, showing off something they enjoy about their city.
Thanks you, Cindy; I'm having a lot of fun filming these videos and learning so much as well. The locals were very kind!
Really enjoyed this video! I'm from Drogheda, which is about an hour and a half from Belfast, maybe 40 min south of the border. My sister recently left Belfast after many happy years living there, she'd have a lot of love for the place and the people. Her English boyfriend and American and English housemates had a great few years there too. I loved the variety of people you spoke with, those teens were great to hear from, i was shocked when they said their ages, they were very well spoken.
Subscribed ❤
Love videos like this= just meeting people and talking to them. Great job!
Your videos are the best! They're very informative and you really know how to mingle in with the community, depicting a very real picture of their daily lives and struggles. Keep up the good work.
Wow, thank you so much! I'm grateful for these experiences.
The Belfast is a captivating watch that takes you on a journey through lush green landscapes and unique cultural experiences. It's the perfect video to enjoy with a cup of tea and unwind. I'm definitely a fan now. 🌺👍
Greetings from FLORIDA, USA, I am enjoying your video interviewing the people there. It is very interesting to hear their views about Belfast.
It was great hearing all the different perspectives about life in Belfast! I can tell the people are quite friendly there!
They were so friendly; I wish I had more time to explore the area!
Last few words are really touching..
Hi Kristin, awesome contents. 60 countries, wow! 😮 I love Belfast, beautiful city. Especially the Christmas Market outside the Town/City Hall.
Great video! Loved Lewis, Brandon & Joy,
and all those you interviewed!
I am so glad you enjoyed Belfast. The 3 young people were brilliant and were a great advert for all what is good about the city. The centre of Belfast is generally a welcoming and friendly place.
Love your attitude Kristen, so true, strangers are just friends you haven't met yet 💙
I agree 😊 Thanks for watching!
Thanks Kristin!!!! Just decided on traveling up to Belfast on my trip to Dublin in May. Timely 🍀
Enjoy! Make sure to go to St Georges Market on Saturday
Thanks Kristin! Another great video!
Thanks for watching!
We are due to go in May. Really looking forward to it. Great video.
Belfast city centre is ridiculously expensive, cathedral quarter is a dear hole . You queue for hours to get a pint and you pay extortionate prices . All these Michelin star restaurants popping up everywhere as well ripping people off . Pathetic portions , and scandalous prices , a license to rob people so AVOID . You want value for money then have a pint further back up the road or a meal in all the other far nicer less talked about restaurants. Bigger portions , fantastic atmosphere definitely value for money 😊 Lisburn rd for one is a great spot. YUM in west Belfast is absolutely gorgeous, you walk out with a full stomach and still some change in your pocket
I love that Lewis and Brandon went right to their phones to look up your channel.
Also, so sad about the girl's best friend :(
They were great kids; it was fun meeting them. Very sad as well about the girl's friend 😢
These type of meetings/insights are fascinating to watch, will watch more of these♥️🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thanks Pi! I'll keep it up :)
@@TravelingwithKristin ❤
those kids ! thats what belfast is all about , the people. Love the vidoes X
This was a really good video. Very interesting perspectives.
Interesting to see! Enjoyed this one. Thanks, Mike.
Thanks Mike! I like talking to people
Great video, really enjoyed this. Belfast is definitely on my list of places to visit.
I loved this video so much I watched it twice. GREAT video Kristen. now watching second part.
So happy to hear that!
Love your vibe talking to people - new sub. ❤️
Great to hear! 🙌 Welcome, Warrior Woman!! ⚔️
I've been in Belfast and this city is amazing to visit. I had difficult to understand their accent a little bit, but it's fine! Everybody was polite and patient with me. With this video I could explore even more Belfast and know about their locals. Thanks.
"Strangers are just friends you haven't met yet" I love this comment right at the end of the video, very true!
Great video as well, enjoyed it.
I'm a Belfast boy now living in NZ. My wife and I are returning in June in part of our RTW trip on motorcycles. Thank you for the clip. I was impressed that the young ones you filmed treated you with respect. No foul language that appears to be the norm these days. It made me proud of my homeland. 👍🏍️🏍️
If she had been talking about the need to come to Jesus the reaction would have been very different. Ask Pastor David Lynn.
Love the video, and it was great talking to you about our city. (It's Johnny btw) lol
Those protestant kids were fun haha. Can't believe they're still fighting over what kind of Christian they are over there..
While there is protestant religious bigotry, it''s not about that. That is a badge/excuse/what the news has programmed.
The real reasons are political and historical.
It basically all goes back to the famine since it was pretty much a Holodomer-esque man made famine, the crops failed and England then removed alot of food from Ireland, alot of people died and alot of English protestants gained alot more property, yet no one ever talks about it
They were great kids but sad to hear that there's still tension
@@sarbo2335 You forgot The Ulster Scots who are stil proud to be British. More than the folks in Britain itself!
Not to do religion does kids confused it's about Irish vs British and British colonised Ulster 1609 with British settlers who where mainly Protestant.
Hi Kristen. Great to see you in Belfast. I was there last year. I want to come back, I really loved Ireland. Still waiting for my residency in Portugal. Take care
At 8mins 20secs is the Merchant Hotel which was originally the headquarters of the Ulster Bank and where my father took his entry exam to qualify as a bank clerk in 1949. He lasted six years but escaped to become an actor. In those giving up a steady job in the bank was the act of a crazy man. Fortunately, however, he succeeded and enjoyed a fifty career on stage, films, television and radio. Indeed, he was one Ireland's finest theatrical exports. I'm only saying, like!
👍
Excellent: the great TP..!!
What great young people you met Kristin. x
I was there at the same time. I loved Belfast and can’t wait to go back
Back in May 2019, I started in Dublin and drive to Belfast. I was amazed at how different the overall vibe in Belfast was to Dublin. Interesting that the young people choose to party in Belfast. I saw a more significant police presence on streets at night in vehicles. Streets were quieter. The Black Cab Tour of The Troubles was excellent overview. Dublin pubs were more raucous and fun. Had a good seafood meal in Belfast. Titanic Museum worth your time apparently. All Irish people I met were warm and friendly, and especially in the pubs. Getting out into Giant's Causeway area and some Game of Thrones sites would be interesting. Safe travels. Enjoy Ireland and Northern Ireland.
Thanks Robert; I agree - very interesting to see the difference. I missed the Black Cab Tour but that looks very informative. I did get to go Giant's Causeway and do the Game of Thrones Tour. I may publish a video about that as well!
kristin, you really have a talent for connecting with random strangers - not easy these days when most are in a rush or glancing at their smart phones :)
Thanks Steve! It can be uncomfortable at first and some people don't want to talk but the ones who do are always really nice :)
@@TravelingwithKristin i also like how you manage to get diverse random strangers...
Wow.
Your a Rockstar , great video👍 Belfast is on my list of cities I want to visit since I was a child
Thanks! I definitely recommend checking it out; will go back for sure
💚🤗💚 LOVE that first lady from the US. My Grandmother was a McGonigle, and my bf is Irish on both his Mom & Dad's side (McConly & Hodgen) so we talk about what it'd be like to move to Ireland quite a bit. We've never been (yet) but his Mom and Aunt have. I admire that woman for taking the leap. We have no children, or many ties here so maybe we'll do it someday. 🍀💚
Awesome video! I’m very interested in visiting Northern Ireland, the history there is just so fascinating to me.
Don't call Northern in the nationalist areas as it is acknowledging British rule.
I spent some time in Atrim and loved it! N. Ireland was fabulous!!
I live in antrim, a peaceful landscape.
You are amazing Kristen, you would get on with people anywhere in the world.And you are good at deciphering accents as the Belfast accent can be hard for an American to understand.You did a good job!
I'm from Belfast, born and bred. I've lived in the US for 29 yrs but I no longer wish to live here. Just bought a house in Donegal and plan to return to Ireland for good when I retire. Belfast will always be home to me. I hope you enjoyed your time there 🙂
Thank you! I actually met a couple from Donegal the same night I filmed this video - they were very nice.
I want to visit Ireland so badly-the us feels so soulless, it feels like no one is happy where I live or has an appreciation for the simple things in life
Welcome home brother.God Bless.
@@nihilisticbarbie People here are not up themselves and are usually shy and caring.They look after visitor's and believe it or not Belfast is one of the safest places in the world to live.God Bless.
Am thinking the same. To return and retire?
Enjoyed every bit of that, as someone who is from n.ire and lived in Oz for 15yrs. Most people are 'sound as a pound' back home
Love Belfast and the people are amazing
Seems like a beautiful country and people.
Years ago, I had the task of carrying out a long survey of I.T. workers (approx 80 individuals, prof's in their field, from Belfast), when asked if they'd leave Belfast, they answered no. At the time no women to interview in this field, all male but it was eye opening. Who would have thought it, Northern Ireland, a haven! Of course, now I know better! 🌿💚
Take care of yourself - ❤️ your work!
Thanks For Sharing 📹 🇮🇪 💪
You're welcome!
Thank you for doing this video. We are starting to plan our next trip and Ireland is on our list.
You're welcome; you'll love it!
That's actually impressive how you found another American that quickly, lived in Belfast all my life, think I've heard one passing by but don't seem to be too many about at all
I've been living in China for the last six years. Haven't been home since the pandemic, but will be back during the summer. Lived in Belfast for over ten years. It literally looks like nothing has changed in terms of the streets and buildings. Over here, they knock a dozen skyscrapers up in a year. Will be interesting to see how much, or how little, has actually changed when I get to visit again.
When I was in Belfast as a student, the sky was gloomy and troops patrolled on the streets. There was no such things like Cathedral quarter or dorm.. Ulster people are the best from both sides, charming, friendly and great generosity ❤
That lady from Texas has definitely picked up an Irish accent hahaha
Right?! I noticed that, too. It happens!
If her mother was from Belfast it would weird if she didn’t easily slide into her mothers accent. Anyone’s accent gets thicker when they go home or are around their family.
Great video!
Thank you! 😊
It’s wild that the woman from Texas grew up with an Irish mother and has been living in Belfast since 2010, and she’s adopted a hint of the accent.
My mom was born in Canada - her family came over from Scotland right before she was born - but every time she’s around our Scottish family for more than a couple of days, she slips back into the accent she grew up with.
I'm a first generation Irish American whose family is from Belfast. I grew up saying "north of Ireland" and never the other! I spent time in Belfast in 1972, 1974 and 1992, mostly in Ballymurphy and The Falls.
I lived in Ireland for 8.5 yrs as an American and noticed the north was so friendly. Lived in Dublin, Wexford, Greystones & Wicklow and the quality of living vs the cost was ridiculously expensive.
I would have moved to Belfast in a second!
Funny you mention that because I have a video coming out about the cost of living in Dublin next week!
Sounds just like Vancouver! Ridiculously expensive compared to the incomes earned .
Very true, rip off Republic.
I'm from Wexford, I hope you enjoyed your time in Ireland ❤🇮🇪
The places you lived in were rich areas. The North is poor
Goodness gracious me I wish I was randomly walking past ya and you stopped me...Born in Belfast and would have showed you the works in a few hours...Belfast has so much to offer that I think the tourist recommendations from websites can't only locals can and they are happy to help. We are world renowned for helping tourists. Hope you had a blast and kep er lit.
I'd be glad of a few recommendations, my last three trips to Belfast didn't produce anything positive. I was beginning to think people weren't sure of my allegiances so they were wary of me. It was the best I could come up with 😂 im not overly defective and I usually manage to have the craic anywhere else I go but no luck so far in Belfast
@@astrofiachaire My brother, please message me next time you are over I shall give ya a guided tour.
@@adamumagpire7848 I just might do that! Thanks
Great video
Thank you, Jose
The lady from Texas, I can hear a very very subtle tinge of Belfast come through in her accent!
That was an excellent video. I met some girls from Belfast when I was in US Air Force stationed on Crete back in 1981. They didn't talk about the Troubles.
They could have been prods .
They could have been catholics. What is your point?@@Scotia6261
I had the pleasure of visiting Belfast this year and was struck by the incredible vibrancy of the gay community, people's kindness, and how optimistic everything felt.
Looks like a nice city. I should go there and check it out.
Check out the entire Northern - and Ireland actually.
I've always liked their accent. The Irish are pretty easygoing.
Very nice people!
I'm from Northern Ireland and it's always great to see tourists visiting and learning more about our country! The North Coast is definitely worth a visit in my opinion. Great video
It's Ireland or the north of Ireland.
@@plats6741 I am very much aware of that, and hold that opinion myself, but Northern Ireland is the most politically correct, and offends the least amount of people
@@YourLocalNirvanaFan The Six counties is probably what we call it the most.
There's always one.@@plats6741
What about calling it Ulster? I mean that's what it is, right?@@plats6741
Thanks for such a nice video Kristin.😊 I love the city Dublin.
Janice gave a great description of this wee place we live in. And she is 100 percent correct about rubbish. Especially rural roads here are a disgrace. It’s actually embarrassing to think tourists will see what I see. Rubbish everywhere along the roads.
Same thing here in the South of France
I've been to Belfast a few times. Every time I've been it seems to get worse (a bit like the rest of the UK). Last time I went in May '23 I must have run into rats every day in those streets around Castle Court and near Maddens. It's a dirty old place for sure.
Shopping of course 👍☘️
What great kids, im catholic from england ,i had an irish catholic dad but my friends are protestant by majority but we have no problems here
That's wonderful to hear! Thanks for sharing and Cheers to unity and understanding! 🌟🤝
See I’m from Northern Ireland
Titanic at the beginning of the video: Ya want a bloody fight?!
A fine example of British understatement ... "The troubles" 30 years of Guerrilla warfare and 3,500 dead with resentment still bubbling under more than 20 years after it 'ended'.
Those kids are entertaining.
I would love to visit Ireland/Scotland to follow ancestral pathways. Loads of political, religious and cultural history. Once again you provide and interesting unvarnished view. I love what you are doing.
Thanks Michael! I was also researching my ancestry up there.
I love how the teenagers show up with "its shite" and youd be forgiven for thinking youd get nothing useful off them, and they end up the most insightful. Belfast has a lot of healing to do still. Hopefully kids like these will raise their own children to look beyond religion. Its a very complicated past.
'Its a very complicated past.'
No, it's real simple. NI was separated because the British Protestants wanted a Protestant ethnostate in the North. They wanted the whole of Ulster but three counties had too many Irish so they took as many of the northern counties as they could. They would have liked to keep the whole of Ireland like that but it wasn't possible.
They then made life as difficult for the Irish in the Six Counties as they could in an effort to make them leave. This is known as ethnic cleansing. It didn't work; the Irish stayed and eventually the toubles started because things weren't changing [peaceful means were tried: look up Burntollet]. So there have now been a few changes made but in essence the place which was built around 16th century sectarianism cannot change because that is the very foundations of the Six Counties. In 1922 these people wrote an oath in blood about resisting Home Rule. They wrote in blood their determination not to allow any justice or human rights for the Irish. These are the kind of crazies we face on our island. And yes this is the responsiblity of Britain who arranged for this in order to destroy the Irish. Not that they ever gave a damn of course.
Every 12th July this mentality is reinforced so that any real change is only skin deep. Underneath, the same crap is still bubbling under as we saw with the three teenagers who talked about how they would get beaten up by the Irish. They gave the impression that they were the oppressed Protestants.
Very tactical but you need to question the narrative. A very tactical people the Unionists. Very proud of how cunning they are and how they can twist things to make themselves the victims always although historically they are the ones with the biggest record in victimising others.
@@paulohagan3309 Unfortunately most people don't want to face this truth.
@@Pine2142 And that is why the problems don't get solved except on the surface. And only for a while, of course. Can't heal the patient if he isn't interested.
They were truthful about one thing. 'It's shite.'
Yes, I thought so too when I was born and bred there in 1957. And they are talking 20+ plus years after the Good Friday agreement.
Nice people
Those sweet little teens 😢😢 that must be so scary for them.
I have always wanted to go to Northern Ireland. I actually might include it in my 2024
That sounds like a fantastic plan! I hope you have an amazing trip in 2024, Rick! Safe travels! 🌍🛫
"What's your favourite country?" "for culture and stuff i love Bali Indonesia.." I was stunned, i have to admit.. :D
I love Northern Ireland and Republic of Ireland from England

Good luck, very courageous to move so far away ❤
Really good video Kristen. Very genuine. Did you take a Black Cab or walking tour of West Belfast? The walls dividing the working class communities were a shock to me.
Those kids broke my heart. Political strife shouldn't affect children. Wish I could bring them all to America.
Hahahahahaha. 😂😂😂😂😂

Hello Kristin. I'm from Czech Republic and I live in Northern Ireland. Your videos from Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland are just fabulous and magnificent. You are an amazing ,unique person . And you are beautiful woman as well..Pls, do video from Ostrava(interesting industrial city) and Prague ( beautiful capital city) of Czech Republic - not CZECHIA!!!.
