    Thank you Jennifer for taking me back to Hastings for a virtual visit. I stayed there with a friend (German actually!) in 1997 and enjoyed the historic feel and atmosphere of a very characterful town. Your views of the beach and pier were really beautiful. May you continue to encounter friendly people on your travels and be well and happy seeing the world. I admire your courage.

      Thank you, Pauline, I really enjoyed Hastings and am planning to stay there again on my way back for it was so lovely. It always makes me happy to read that I can bring back beloved memories with my videos. Have a great day, Pauline. 😀

    This is a beautiful vlog, Jennifer, so well filmed, and interesting, for once it makes me feel good about this country, the music is lovely and helps create the atmosphere. You are very brave living like this. Travel definitely broadens the mind. I have also done a lot of travelling in Germany and love the country. You have got another fan. You seem to have the ability to make places we take for granted look so interesting. Take care.😁😁😁👐👐👐

      Thank you so much for this lovely feedback, it means a lot to me. ❤️ And I know well what you mean. I have grown up in Aachen, a beautiful historic city but only saw the beauty of it after I have moved away. Many greetings from Dorset

    Hello from a fellow German living in the Uk. Dreaming of owning my own little camper soon. I just came across your channel and will follow your adventures from now on. If you are ever in Lincolnshire let me know and I would love to meet for a coffee and look at your little van 😍Alles Liebe Petra

      Wie schön!! Ich würde gerne vorbei schauen und bei einem Cream tea etwas quatschen... Allerdings bin ich seit ein paar Tagen in Frankreich, wo das Vanlife Leben etwas günstiger ist 😉 Allerdings hat mir England so gut gefallen, dass ich beschlossen habe, jedes Jahr für 1 Monat zurück zu kehren... Herzliche Grüße aus Carentan

    Thank you for your posting. It takes me back so many years ago when my parents took me to Hastings for the annual holiday. Am now 83 years old and live in Peru. Many thanks for bringing back so many memories of all those years ago.

    Looks like a really great travelling experience, I live in Weymouth and it is refreshing to find a Vlog of the British seaside that doesn’t just concern itself with the bad things.

    • @jenniferk6632
      @jenniferk6632  25 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Hi Dave, thank you so much for watching and commenting. I am so overwhelmed by the beauty of the British seaside, so far. I would not know any bad things to say. Obviously, there is always good and bad in everything but I personally make the choice to focus on the good for I only have this one life to live to the fullest.
      Many greetings to you from beautiful Somerset, where I am doing another housesit. 😀

    At 12:48, there is a brief view of an improbable 13 century French Gothic-style Cathedral. It’s a Victorian build by the premier non-Royal Duke of Norfolk - a Catholic family who live in the neighbouring Arundel Castle. Both well worth a visit.

      I had a small van like yours and I went to Ireland, Spain, Portugal and France. I’m Australian so it still amazes me how easy it is to get around Europe! I sold my van and got a larger one but it was a mistake for me. I’ve just been asked to sell it to a friend so once that’s completed (🤞) I’m going to buy another small camper and go back to France and I’d like to travel around Germany as well. I’d also like to see Croatia and Montenegro etc. Really enjoying your videos!

    Hi Jenny, I love this latest video. You do get about quickly. I live in a quiet village between Salisbury (Wiltshire) and Winchester (the old capital of England). I suffer with ME/CFS so spend a lot of time resting. The condition is fairly unpredictable as to when my energies will crash; its mainly "boom and bust" Would you believe I actually look after dogs with this condition....mad aren't I? Other times I design fused glass objects. I don't watch tv, I prefer to read or watch documentaries and youtube. There...just thought I would introduce myself. I hope this finds you well x

      Oh Anya, I am feeling very honored that you are telling me about yourself... Even though I do not have the same illness, I do know about the sudden loss of energy. I am happy to hear that you found a passion with art. In fact, it makes me happy that in times of low energy periods, I can lay on a couch (or in my campervan) and still feel productive by editing these videos...Do you happen to be on Instagram?
      Lots of love from Dorset to you

      @@jenniferk6632 Hello; I had a feeling you would understand about the energy compromise as you're recovering from long covid. Is your condition improved by being away from home? I have a friend with long covid and he just moseys on through....he's in his 90's!! I expect being on the coast is a good tonic to your health. I often smile and laugh at your expressions. Anyhow....I hope you've something good planned for today. X

I do not have long Covid, though but Covid triggered a chronic lung disease plus, due to an autoimmune illness, my lungs were already effected. I hope, your friend will recover completely. Wish him well for me. Lots of love to you...
