Hello! I’m very pleased that you stumbled upon the Welsh history of Philadelphia and it’s surrounding suburbs. I hail from Philadelphia. Just North and East of where you were viewing, there is also a “North Wales, Pennsylvania”. This is all part of the “Welsh Tract”, as the Welsh were some of the first settlers in this area, followed by the Swedish I believe. Cheers!

I’m from north wales and was entirely unaware of this lmfao. The Swede part tracks as well ! 🇸🇪

You should do New York City!

Wow, you visited Omaha! I'm so used to its gridded design and was completely blown away when I visited Germany and the street names made no sense and went all over the place. It's very organized here. All streets running north to south are labeled with numbers, and those going east to west get full names. The numbering starts in the east and the numbers increase as you get further west. The best part is that the names stay the same, too. A taxi driver in the pre GPS Era need only to memorize a small list of street names in order and then they will basically know the entirety of the city. If you told them that you're going to "1404 Cuming Street," you don't even need to know what Omaha looks like, nor do you need a map. You can just get there. The first two numbers represent the cross-street, even if there isn't one. So you know this address will be between where 15th Avenue and 13th Avenue are or would be if they don't intersect there. So now you basically have it narrowed down to one intersection. It was very hard to get used to not having this system. Sorry if that's a long read and you don't much care.

Bala Cynwyd.. we pronounce it like Bah-la Kin-Wood. Cool to see you going over places i have spent most of my life. Just found your channel and you definitely just earned a steady viewer. Between tours of different places and the relaxing vibe, its perfect

i’m from wisconsin! just discovered your channel last night during a power outage and you kept me sane while i was dying of heat at 2am without my fan so thanks

Loved this ❤️ My family is originally from Puerto Rico and I have a home in the town of Aguadilla. So glad you enjoyed the quick look. Would love a full video. It’s quite beautiful 🇵🇷 thank you !!

Feeding the algorithm gods with yet another heartfelt thank you for all you do!

15:12 the white flag with the red cross is the flag of the Spanish Empire, who built the fort in San Juan

Love this! ❤ Thank you for another relaxing and entertaining video!

Hello again friend! From Omaha! The grain silos are no longer in use, and a lot of people make art on them now. Most popular is when someone wrote across the whole top “Dump Trump”

I live in Omaha, and it's really fun that you ended up "touring" it on your video. I hope to visit Wales some day in person. Your videos are lovely and help me get through my workday in an often busy environment. Cheers!

I grew up not far from Bryn Mawr and the story I always heard was that the area was settled by Welsh Quakers who were escaping religious persecution.

Greetings from Lancaster, Pennsylvania! I just discovered your channel this evening and I love it! You pronounced Bryn Mawr perfectly. It's a nice place. I didn't know it was a Welsh name. Looking forward to all your future videos!

Hey I love this series! I think it would be cool if you went into street view in these cities to get a sense of what the streets look like and what the vibe of the cities are

love your channel ❤

What a great coincidence that you found that Welsh town 😂 It kinda closes the circle. Rob McElhenney is from Philadelphia and he bought the Wrexham AFC.

Pennsylvanian here! The Mainline (a series of wealthy Philadelphia suburbs) was settled by Welsh folks. We pronounce it Brin Marr. Fairly close to the Welsh pronunciation. We pronounce Bala Cynwyd as Bala Kinwood.

I agree with this! We call it Brin Mar lol and yes North Wales is my neck of the woods! Awesome vid!

thanks for the video

Please do Czechia, i know you were in Prague, so i highly recomend you to look at Český Krumlov, Karlovy Vary, Kutná Hora, Liberec, Brno, Ostrava and Karviná

Las Vegas would be a interesting place to look at

So many tingles✨ You should do St Louis Missouri 💜

i just made my own asmr channel, looking around youtube for inspiration glad i stumbled on your channel !!

great video! you should check out pittsburgh pa next time, would love to watch you navigate my home town❤

it’s pretty funny seeing you find the welsh names in the us 😭 my city in europe is also a town in nebraska of all places

Hey!! You should try CT next!! loved the video ❤

Amazing ❤

I'm from nearby, we pronounce it ‘brin (rhymes with gin) marr (like Johnny Marr)’

Can you do an asmr around gouda and woerden and the little villages in the surrounding areas

Bryn Mawr is pronounced the way you did. Bala Cynwyd is usually pronounced as “BAL-uh KEN-wid.” Eastern Pennsylvania was settled by Welsh immigrants, thus there are a lot of cities, neighborhoods, etc. that have Welsh names.

Ahhhhh how nice! I always liked Pennsylvania but now even more so!

Im stationed at the Air Force base just south of Omaha lol nice to see!

Great video! And I agree with below comment - please do NYC! 🙏

Thank you for video! Waiting for Georgia and Armenia)

I’d love for you to look at Annapolis or St Augustine

You should do Wyoming(preferably southwest)

Day 5 of asking for a video about North Carolina/Southeast. So bummed you didn't choose North Carolina for this video. Hoping for NC in the next!!

Do you think you could do Alaska, keep up the good work my friend!

Bryn Mawr is pronounced “Brinn Maur”. There is a lot of welsh influence in the tri-state area. There’s another college named “Brynn Arryn” I believe

charleston, south carolina!!

I know you mentioned Pittsburgh and I know you just did Pennsylvania but you should go back and look at Pittsburgh at some point. We’re interesting cuz we have significantly more rivers than the average city and the organization of downtown is an interesting mess lol

The reason there’s Welsh places in America is probably because Welsh people discovered that area (bit like New York being inspired by York or Boston being inspired by Boston in England)

A like, comment and greeting to the Welshman!! I dare you to do North Dakota next, find something interesting there, I challenge you to it.

The reason there are Welsh names there is way back there was land allotted to Welsh people from the man that founded Pennsylvania (William Penn)

My sister goes to Bryn Mawr. It’s cool that you found that and I never knew that the name was Welsh.

Philly or Philadelphia isn't the bast place to live in most of the city's are like that. And most of the Welsh or British or French names are from the old colonial days when usa was just territory
