As an humble man, from a poor American village, traveling is not something that may ever be in my budget. However, I've thoroughly enjoyed with these amazing glimpses into some of the most beautiful places in the world that Mr. Rick so kindly and richly brought to us over the years. Thank you so much Mr. Rick for sharing with me the joy of travelling and getting to know different places, peoples and cultures! Best wishes from Arkansas.

I'm from Michigan, the pastie tradition is very strong here, especially in the north of Michigan where copper mining was extensive. It's considered a traditional Michigan food here, but wonderful to know it originated in England!

I remember it as it originally was. Whoever allowed that to happen should have been hung drawn and quartered! I never go there now, and never will. Cornwall should always be left in it's natural beauty. I used to love going to Padstow, but now it feels like I am popping round to Rick Stein's place!

@@bobbybigboyyes I'm afraid it happens everywhere. I recently revisited a small country village that figured prominently in my childhood, and was appalled to find that the wealth of the community had been invested in turning a place of outstanding _natural_ beauty into a completely artificial environment; the heath had been groomed and all of the gorse bushes and tussock grass removed - it is now a manicured lawn. The woods were no longer ancient woodlands but were groomed, cultivated and manicured, with no fallen logs or trees - they were all removed as "hazards"; the main pathways covered with cinder, and the great Sycamore Trees of antiquity that ringed a small lake in the heart of the woods had all been so brutally pollarded that they are merely giant stumps, every branch having been removed - again, on grounds of "safety". And it wasn't tourists this time, it was affluent city-dwellers taking over local parish councils and using their status to impose this bourgeois regimen on their local environment.

A similar quote, author unknown, well known and used a lot in the 19th Century, was "Wherever you find a mine anywhere in the world, you'll find a Cornishman at the bottom of it." The pastie, self contained as it is, may have been the original miner's packed lunch. BY the way, wherever Cornishmen meet, they always address each other as Cousin Jack. It was too bad Rick didn't have time to cover the South coast of Cornwall, including the Lizard peninsula. Now that is truly beautiful.

Wow - i had no idea some people felt this way.Then again based on history - the English conquered many lands but the locals often had to adapt to them , not the other way around - regardless of location this was their pattern. Not always a bad influence in the lands they conquered but not always sensitive to the needs of the locals i felt.

Hello Cynthia

I would go here with my parents every year since I was a few months old... never missed a year until 2019, then pandemic, and now i haven’t gone down since 2018. Doesn’t seem like much but Cornwall has a special place in my heart, my parents are getting old now, and we would have been going in less than a month 😭

There are a lot of descendants of Cornish miners in California in places like Nevada City, and Auburn. I even ate a pastie there once!

That would be a pasty. Pasties are nipple tassels worn by striptease dancers.🤣

Oh yeah they are all over the place and in some FISHING VILLAGES in AMERICA people's still talk CORNISH its so weird listening to there accent..Lols

Amazing landscapes. And having season like content on KZread is amazing. Good job, Steve. Keep it going.

My Great Grandfather worked there and then came to Michigan USA to work the copper mines and found even worse conditions. I had tears in my eyes when I went on the tours and found out the working conditions that they went through. They were in debt when they got here and stayed in debt as long as they worked in the mines. Generations of our family was lost to these mines. I still find it so familiar that they left one peninsula to come to another. I still have family there although most moved to New Zealand. If the surname "Teddy" means anything to you please give me a shout.

I visited Cornwall while I was living in England. It is absolutely gorgeous. Vivid green colors emerging from the endless range of cliffs, and vegetation, combined by the absolutely soothing sound of the Celtic ocean waves. Hoping to one day own a hamlet, perhaps in Cornwall.

Sorry know this is a late response, but ‘own a hamlet’?! A hamlet is a small village, not just a cottage.
