  • Join us in South Yorkshire for an evening exploring Sheffield and witness our surprise as we discover an indoor tropical paradise, hunt bears through the city centre and end up with an authentic taste of America in our latest UK travel vlog.
    We begin our adventure at Meadowhall Shopping Centre as we board the excitingly named Sheffield Supertram for a short journey to the city centre where we are greeted by the awesome sound of the Cathedral bells and the first of many awesomely decorated bear sculptures.
    As we wander the city streets we stumble across the Winter Garden and head inside for an amazing surprise. Not only is it an indoor tropical paradise that transports you to tropical climes all year round but there are mysterious creatures hidden in the bushes too.
    After discovering the tranquil Peace Gardens, the iconic Crucible and even more bears around the city, we take a walk around Victoria Quays and the Sheffield Canals before we jump back on the Supertram towards Ikea where we disembark and take the short walk to TGI Fridays for a taste of America in the heart of Yorkshire.

    Sheffield is a great place to live. I’m a sheffielder but I lived in Essex and Nottingham as a student. I’ve also lived in Leeds for 10 years but came back to Sheffield 8 years ago. Sure there are some areas to avoid but you get that everywhere. I live in the south of the city with the Peak District on my doorstep. People are generally friendly and if you are a sociable person making friends is fairly easy. The main issue I have is the decimation of the city centre and lack of investment

    That was a real nice vlog, anything in Yorkshire is lovely to me! The cathedral bells were lovely to hear, loved all the bears, but not the creepy dolls! The only small police box I have ever seen was in Trafalgar Square. The flowers in the Peace Garden were beautiful. Victoria Quays we’re lovely too. Never been to a TGIF , I think we have them in Canada, will have to check. You certainly had a lovely evening in Sheffield.

    That police box you saw on Surrey Street was my dads, he clocked in and out there for 12 years as a South Yorkshire Bobby before his move to CID. He was once in that box when the door suddenly slammed shut on him, found out later it was due to the exploding gas tower in Hillsborough 😮
