I have been watching this channel for a few years. I love living vicariously through your travels, but this video has really lifted my spirits. I moved to live full-time on a narrowboat on the UK Canal system in August this year. Seeing how much you loved being in the Welsh Countryside. Scenery that I have taken for granted, I saw anew through your eyes. The fact that you, who have seen some of the most awe inspiring scenery and places in the world, and think the canals gave you some of the most memorable scenery really blows my mind. Thank you for this video. I really loved it. And it’s the first one of yours, shows a trip that I can experience in reality myself.

This is, by far, the most relaxing series you've made to date and is a balm for frazzled nerves. As others have said, you and Nicole are the definition of couple's goals.

This video took me from not knowing narrow boats existed to having a new bucket list dream. Fantastic stuff. Can't wait for the next episode.

You made me want to go on a train trip. Now you made me want to go on a narrow boat.
Your enthusiasm is incredibly infectious!
Thank you for your travels and taking me with you!

You know it's love when your significant other will remove a spider from your collar, even though it's freaking them out at the time. Nicely handled Nicole!

I would love to do this. I'm 82, and know I would love the slow adventure of every day. Looking forward to see more.

I grew up within a mile of the Monmouthshire and Brecon Canal. As a child I used to fish in it, go wildlife spotting and canoe on it. I moved away many years ago and had forgotten just how beautiful it is.
I’ve travelled by narrowboat on most of the British canal system and it really is an incredible way to spend a holiday. I’m really envious of you and Nicole. Maybe it’s time I hired a narrowboat once again.

I know she's camera shy, but we need more from Nicole!!! She did great and will be a welcome addition to the channel!

I'm from Wales and I couldn't be more delighted you enjoyed my home. I wish I saw more of Wales on YouTube. I really hope you'll come back and travel Wales more 😍 Diolch yn fawr

I am struggling to find a content creator who better exemplifies what the intended purpose of YouTube was when it was conceived. Sure there’s editing but that’s a necessity, sure there’s sponsors but they’re good companies. Take all that out and it’s just the most positive guy in the world experiencing a slice of life and sharing it so others can enjoy it, and maybe do it.

One of your best videos ever Mike. The story telling and editing is outstanding! This channel has come so far. This is better than any travel show on tv.

Let me say you are one unique person who appreciates and enjoys everything life has to offer. Nicole is adorable. Love watching your videos, they put me in a great mood, thanks! 😊

My mom and her friend, both in their 70s, travelled from Canada to do a canal trip a few years ago. She ran the boat in the locks while her friend opened the locks. They both loved it. I will be sharing this series with her. Glad to see Nicole is comfortable being part of the adventure. She is a wonderful addition to the series combined with your infectious personality. The boat parade looked like a lot of fun too. Can’t wait for the next edition.

CACKLING at the way you looked at the geese/ducks and said: “We’re Canadian too!” 😂

I think you & Nicole were a little surprised with the excitement of all the people that were equally excited to see you both. I loved this! It was beautiful. Just love how you both enjoyed lunch on a patio looking out over a field of sheep. The rainbow was beautiful! Looking forward to next week. Wales is a beautiful place.

There are so many reasons to love your videos but this week's video really encapsulates ALL the reasons. I watch a lot of travel vlogs, its my alternative to actually being able to travel, but there is something incredibly special about yours....you have an innate ability to make me feel like Im there experiencing the journey with you. It is lovely to see that Nichole is travelling with you this trip and I literally cant wait for next week's video.

Thank you for visiting my home country; Americans know England, they know Scotland, they know Ireland, but you ask many about Wales they reply "Where is that?" or "Is that in England!" I'm so glad you bring my beautiful country to a wider audience.

As a Brit getting to see your reaction to glorious British countryside is marvellous. It's easy to take it for granted living and growing up here, but to see it through a stranger's eyes fresh was a great feeling! Very glad you enjoyed your trip to the UK - come back soon!

First time watching your channel and I love your attitude! I'm Welsh born and bread. I live in the North East of Wales and I'm really happy you're enjoying our country. It truly is beautiful. Thanks for reminding me of that.
