    I'm a George Michael fan and really appreciated this. Lovely to see his home and the tributes. Very nice walk. Thank you!

      Hi Tina W, the lady in the black dress attends the tributes every day keeping everything tidy and lighting fresh candles every night. It is an amazing sight to see in real life. The tributes were from all over the world and we spent a long time reading them. We thought it would be nice to put a walk to this so that his fans could enjoy the fabulous countryside he lived in to make it a full day out and still pay their respects again before they left. We were talking to somebody who lived in Goring and said George would slip into the pub quietly and all the locals respected his privacy. We were amazed we could get so close one of the best days ever. All the best the Taxi Driver

      Hi Lana, thank you. To stand outside George Michael's cottage and to see the out pouring of affection for him was incredible. All along the wall there were messages saying we love you and miss you. The best way that we could show our respect was to film a walk in the area so that people in the future can see the wonderful countryside he lived in. We stayed three days in the area and couldn't help keep going back to have a look. This is one place we will go back to walk again all the best The Taxi Driver.

      Hi Sweet Cin, we drove down from Yorkshire to film this walk arriving at the otherside of the river we were staying at the Swan Hotel. So as we walked over the bridge and saw George Michaels cottage for the first time we were blown away by the amount of tributes that had been left to him. The area that George lived in was so incredibly beautiful we thought it would be great if we could add this walk to his memory so that if people stay there they can appreciate it for themselves. We also did another walk from Goring, we only had three days down there but we shall always remember them. All the best The Taxi driver

      Hello world wanderer, thank you. It was a fabulous walk on one of the hottest days of the year. Very lucky to see the fish being caught just 500 yards from George Michael's home. We love Goring and hope to go back. All the best The Taxi Driver

    I enjoyed seeing all of the beautiful countryside here ! Just so serene and lovely.
    It is so touching to see the outpouring of love for George Michael..ongoing and not forgotten.
    Thank you for giving us a heart filled glimpse of where he spent his days.
    How you managed in the 90 degree heat I do not know! But your photography is fantastic!!
    Very best regards, Andrea

      Hi Andrea, a very big thank you for the donation you sent us it is very much appreciated and will certainly helps us to keep going forward with our filming. The countryside around George Michael's home was fabulous. Our next walk from Goring will show you the other side of the river from where he lived. The locals said George was a private man but would still go into the pub for a drink sitting in a quiet corner so that the tourists would not know he was there. We were very surprised as we crossed over the bridge that we could go right up to his front door and see the tributes so close. There were personal tributes from all over the world and we spent a long time reading them. Thank you once again all the very best The Taxi Driver
