As always, thanks for watching this week's vlog. If you liked it make sure to subscribe! This should be the last time we have bad audio quality. We really loved filming in the UK and can't wait to go back to explore more. Next week we will be in a new country! Don't miss it! 🙂 - Brandon & Anja
I was raised in Devon, so Exeter was my go-to city as a teen. It has lots of lovely old buildings but unfortunately it was very damaged in WW2, so they only really exist in small pockets, such as around the cathedral. Much if the main high street and the other streets are post-war. They rebuilt quite a large area called Princesshay in the 2000s because it was so horrible! It’s a much smarter city now because of that redevelopment. My personal choice is to spend time around the cathedral, with its ancient buildings and character. The cathedral green is a lovely picnic spot on a sunny day, though it is actually the site of a mass plague burial pit… 😱😂 The quay is really nice too. You can walk/ cycle along the river there are access two pubs: Double Locks and Turf Locks. You can only access Turf Locks by foot, bike or boat. It sits right at the end of the river, by the estuary.
We didn't have any expectations going in, as we didn't really know much about it. It was quite charming. 😄 That's all very interesting! We spent a lot of time around the cathedral, but it was set up for the Christmas Market at the time (we've got a whole video dedicated to the Cardiff and Exeter Markets).
Thank you friend for taking me back to my Uni days in Exeter, it’s a wonderfully vibrant city, as a student I spent many a night stumbling round the cobblestones streets gazing at the architecture even in the state I was in!!❤❤
I'm Exeter born and bred - except for 21 years living away as a military wife. Someone I know was in the background at your visit to Boston Tea Party! Exeter Cathedral or the Cathedral Church of St Peter in Exeter is awesome - It has the longest uninterrupted medieval vaulted ceiling in the world. The Cathedral is what makes Exeter a City.
Loving these shots! This vlog was super fun to watch. Really wish we had the chance to explore the UK! How did Anja's tattoo come out? Also, that breakfast sandwich looked amazing! 😍Great video! Cheers.
Thanks! This Saturday is finally the first Morocco vlog. The audio is definitely better than these last two vlogs (which we had incorrectly hooked up the mic 😂). We love the UK. You guys definitely need to visit- and visit Europe in general. But make sure you let us know when ya do! 😜 That whole breakfast was freakin' amazing. I'll send you the result on Insta.
We had a great time there! We really would love to explore some more small UK cities in the future. Any recommendations? We visit Nottingham recently and have a video coming out for that. Really enjoyed it there too!
@@wherearewe-ytNot a small one but bristol is an absolutely stunning place, i prefer it to london (the good parts of london like central stuff) by a landslide
It's REALLY interesting to me seeing people Visit my home Town for a holiday 🤣😁🤗 I'm glad you both liked it here The White Heart 🤍 is one of my favourite places here! So happy you featured it in your video! 🤗
We actually went there for Anja's tattoo appointment, but really enjoyed ourselves! We love visiting small towns around the UK, and definitely plan on visiting some more in the future. 😁 You're lucky to have that Boston Tea Party restaurant in your city. It was so good!
@@wherearewe-yt I'm glad you liked Boston tea party so much again one of my favourites! Yeah I am lucky to live were I live it's a beautiful little town with lots of interesting history! and it makes me happy to see people like yourself enjoy it 😁 if you don't mind me asking what part of America are you guys from? My parents nearly lived in Colorado Springs so I could have lived in America myself 😁
@@wherearewe-yt ah sorry about that 😅🤣 meant no offense at all 😬 Dident want to no exsactly were you are or anything *just thought maybe you had an American acsent and was just curious to what part of America you may have been from 🫣my apologies and I should of noticed the germin Acident as I have a good friend who is gemin* in my defense I'm not good with acsences 🫣 and I'm also Aurtisic so please forgive me.
@@phatdayz It's no problem! Anja doesn't really have a strong accent, as she lived in the UK for 5 years, America for a year and Canada for 2 years. She definitely doesn't have the typical German accent you'd think of. Most people have no idea where she is from. And American and Canadian accents can be pretty similar depending on the region. I'm from the East Coast of Canada, so some may think my accent is stronger than other regions, but I also haven't lived in my home country for almost 6 years to be fair. We actually just made two videos recently from my home city, so you should subscribe and check em' out! 😜
Happy you enjoyed your stay here in Exeter, one of the top ten safest cities in England, And FYI @13:26 Never get that close to swans, they can break your arm in an instant.
Swans are nuts. We have them in Canada as well. We left very quickly after that - I know what they're capable of! Hahaha. Yes, we quite enjoyed ourselves. It's nice to get out of the big cities, and visit some smaller, more relaxed towns.
Thanks for visiting. Exeter is a nice city with a good quality of life. The area/county is known for its beautiful countryside, national parks such as Dartmoor and Exmoor and the wonderful coast path. Its a very popular destination for tourists in the summer as has many resorts and pretty coastal towns. I think the area is really worth a visit. However, Exeter in its self is not going to blow you away!! It's a nice place to live and work and eat haha not wow you.
We'd love to visit more of the surrounding areas some time on the future! We quite enjoy the smaller cities in towns in the UK. We're headed back soon to make some videos in Northern England and Scotland. Looking forward to it!
I was born on July 5th 2008 and I live in Exeter and I have to say that it's quite a nice place to live in, I'm obsessed with buses since I have autism so I love seeing the buses driving up and down the city centre.
It seemed like quite a nice place to visit! There were definitely a lot of busses going in and out while we were- but we got in by train, which is our favorite way to travel for sure.
We just call them breakfast muffins in England. A lot of people who haven't been to the UK often confuse English muffins with crumpets, but they are 2 completely different things, crumpets are a bit like a fluffy aerated pancake, whereas the breakfast muffins are more bread-like.
We're obsessed with crumpets! Those little perforations trap all the delicious butter and spreads. SO GOOD. But do people traditionally put on them in the UK? We do jam and butter...but we're also a big fan of putting peanut butter on top.
curious where the tattoo was done and glad you enjoyed this town, it isn't what it used to be and I wouldn't of gone to the Christmas market but hey i live here so ya know. cool you saw the tiny street but you may of missed the catacombs and the underground tunnels.... it is a shame but parts were burnt down by the cathedral. the pub there had a skeleton in it but is unfortunately shut since. cool vid though
That's too bad we missed the catacombs! And we would have loved to visit that pub. Definitely sounds like our kind of thing..haha! She got tattooed at Artium Ink. Thanks for watching. 😃
We enjoyed it! We'd live to re-visit and film there again. A less terrible video, next time! Hahaha. This was one of the first vlogs we ever filmed as practice. We didn't think it'd ever even see the night of day.
Ahh its a shame you didn't have longer here, there's so much more to explore, especially if you're into Harry Potter!! a lot of places in the book/film are based on places in Exeter, for example Diagon Alley is based on a small street called Gandy street.
We may re-visit some day! Anja may want to get another tattoo there. We also would like to re-film there, since this is one of the first vlogs we ever made, and it's pretty bad. Haha. We do like Harry Potter, so that'll be on the list if we ever return!
Thanks! That's what we're aiming for. One thing we're really trying to do is show off the city, and it's sites, without being too "history channel". Anyone can list off a bunch of facts from Wikipedia. We're trying to find that balance of fun facts, food and trying to capture the "vibe" of a seeing...or at least as we see it! You can see her full tattoo on Instagram: instagram.com/p/ClxySoAMqlm/?igshid=MDJmNzVkMjY=
Just looked up some photos. Looks nice! We'd like to some more of the UK- and we both really enjoy smaller towns like that. Especially coastal towns. Hope we get can get back that away again!
I was born there but lived in a town called tiverton. Wasn't the best but served its purpose at the time. Exeter itself was ok... for me personally i found it very boring. You see one city and see them all. Glad I moved up north.
What cities up north do you suggest we visit? We have another UK trip coming up soon. Doing a pet sit in Leeds. Going to try and visit York and maybe another surrounding town while we are there. Don't know if we will get further north within England itself. We will be in Scotland for a few weeks before Leeds.
We thought the city was actually quite cute, especially since it was December with the Christmas market being there. What are your suggestions for better places to visit in that area?
She was actually referring to the sweetcorn hash! She didn't know what it was. We actually used to live in Turkey, so we've eaten a lot of halloumi and absolutely love it. 😋
We showed plenty of Exeter. There's not exactly that much to see, is there? We showed the cathedral, the Quay, the ruins, the narrowest street. What else are we meant to show? Haha. Our channel is food focused. We're not a history channel by any means.
Please don' let Anja tattoo all over her neck and hands like you did. It would spoil her beauty. Why do you need to tattoo all over your body, it doesn't look good, I have to say.
Dear Susie...we're not bothered whether or not you think we look good or not. I'm not Anja's boss, so she do whatever it is she likes with her body. It's not my concern...and it most certainly isn't yours. Thanks for watching! 😃

Welcome to my home town. Most people don't realise how old Exeter is. It started as a Roman Fort named "ISCA".
Glad you enjoyed your visit.
We definitely did! Thanks for watching.
My home town too.

@@wherearewe-yt Bath is beautiful and you would have to have a famous Sally Lunn Bun there.

Came across your Channel the other day and made sure to subscribe can't wait to watch more of your videos
Thanks for watching and subscribing!
Very interesting and beautiful video 📹 👌 😊 and cheers 👍
Interesting video and Rockfish cider looks tasty :)
It was! The whole meal was great. Wish we could have had more crab, but the dish we wanted wasn't available, unfortunately.
@@wherearewe-yt try soaking crumpets in whisked egg and then fry them. Eggy crumpets, delicious. Great with bacon, chilli and brown sauce

Such a cute place ! Anja’s breakfast looked so good and crab is the best . Great video ❤
The breakfast was amazing! And yeah, it was.
"Oggy Oggy" is something the Cornish wives would shout when they delivered the pasties to their husbands working in the mines😃
Oh, really?? Interesting! It's been a long time since we filmed this video, but I still remember how delicious those pasties were!

They were delish!
I live in Exeter and love it.

Nothing like a good Cornish pasty.
They were so good! Thought maybe they'd be dry, but there were anything but. Looking forward to trying them again in the future. 😃
I was just looking caught my eye as from exteter I didn't know you were food channel sorry dudes well hoped you like it anyway
You guys should check out Falmouth in Cornwall. Some nice places to eat if you check trip advisor
Just looked up some photos. Looks nice! We'd like to some more of the UK- and we both really enjoy smaller towns like that. Especially coastal towns. Hope we get can get back that away again!

Most beautiful city i have ever been to my best friends mothers risudes there@wherearewe-yt
If you didn't stop to eat so many times...you would have seen more of the city😅
I think it's quite common to eat breakfast and dinner every day even on holiday 😂
Halooumi is cheese!
