😀 A BIT ABOUT US:
We’re Marianne & Chris, a happily married couple from the UK. Marianne is a living kidney donor to her best friend, and realising that life was for living and never really knowing what’s round the corner - we decided to fulfil our dream of travelling full time.
So in March 2018 after the kids had left home, we sold our belongings, rented our house and moved into our campervan called Trudy. We set off to see the world and after vanlifing around Ireland and Europe, we grabbed our backpacks and spent 5 months exploring Central America.
Feeling like we needed a challenge, we planned the ultimate van life adventure! In Jan 2020 set off to drive around the World from UK to UK. But after arriving in Turkey, covid caught up with us and closed the borders, so we had a wonderful 18 months exploring this special country. Realising we were not going to be able to head further East, we decided to do a handbrake turn and go the other way and shipped our van to the USA.
We hope you enjoy coming with us, and we’ll continue to share our real adventures and hope you feel inspire to step out of your comfort zone and try something new.

It's weird and satisfying in a good way when I see video reactions to our city and state. Born and raised in San Antonio and I don't think people understand how unique this city is. As a local, we rarely visit any of these places unless family and friends come into town. I worked at that courthouse for almost 20 years and saw the transformation of downtown and the river-walk to what it is today. The river-walk is one of the crown-jewels of Texas and many cities and states around the U.S. have tried to duplicate it and FAILED. Sure, Texas has issues just like many states, but our way of living is unique to us and we LOVE it and treasure it. Your journey and commentary here made me smile and I wish you nice people nothing but safe-travels and joy.

The city mostly just has them on city buildings like the Chamber of Commerce and the International Center. While there may be more, it's definitely not London and it's more so 'safe- ish' due to more foot, bike and the occasional boat patrol than other parts of the city.

Lived here for a brief moment in time. San Antonio is magic. My favorite city on earth of national and international cities I've been to. Historic Pearl, Hotel Emma, and the Botanical Gardens, absolutely love those places.
What in the world? Y'all were just here 10 days ago! Thank you for visiting my city. I'm so glad y'all enjoyed yourselves. Y'all come back anytime 😊😊
I'm glad you guys enjoyed San Antonio! I love living here and I always recommend people stopping by. Even for someone like me who was born and raised here, I still enjoy heading downtown and walking along the river walk. Best of luck on your travels!
As you can see we are some of the most friendly people here in SA. I love taking my family to river walk. Glad you loved it! God bless you guys. 🙏
As a resident of South Texas, your review of San Antonio, TX was most kind! San Antonio also has at least three great top notch Art Museums, The McNay, The Witte, and The San Antonio Art Museum. You are lucky you only encountered an armadillo..., because Texas has four poisonous snakes... they are Diamond Back Rattlesnake, Copperhead, Coral Snake and the Cottonmouth or Water Moccasin. The other real danger in stopping at a roadside park is FIRE ANTS, which gives a very painful sting and blister! Happy Trails and Stay Safe!

Your chances of getting bitten by a dog are a thousand times greater than being bitten by a poisonous snake and that won't happen if you leave snakes alone. As far as being bitten by a corral snake, its fangs are so small that it would have to chew on your ear or the flesh between your thumb and pointer finger to inject venom. Snakes serve a vital purpose by eating rats.

@@genespell4340 I live here in Texas, and true you need to leave snakes alone. My Father's Sister (both native Texans) was bitten by a Copperhead as a young child and nearly died, Copperheads are very aggressive. I gave our friend's from the UK that information as a safety precaution. As for Coral snakes... a man in San Antonio was bitten by a Coral in his backyard, and the snake wouldn't let go. By the time his wife got him to Emergency he had tunnel vision! His wife being a nurse called ahead to make sure the hospital had anti-venom for Coral snakes which most certainly saved his life, they are the most deadly snake in North America!
Moved to San Antonio from Germany a half year ago. Love this place it has so much beauty and there's so much to do.
I'm 66 years old and have lived in 34 different places, but praise God, I was blessed to live in San Antonio for almost a third of my life. I'm so glad this reactor couple enjoyed themselves, and I hope they experienced how friendly the people are.
I love my city. People think San Antonio is just the Alamo but there is much history and architecture downtown. I’ll be sitting on that very Riverwalk tonight with the love of my life celebrating our anniversary. I’m glad you enjoyed this beautiful city 💕

Saw old pictures of San Antonio when it was just a dirt road city with cowboys and cattle streaming through the streets. My grandmother (1898-1982) even ran into Bonnie & Clyde coming out of the S. H. Kress store (1896-1981). She said they were very polite! Clyde held the door open for her and said..."you first maam." She told stories of feeding depression era homeless stew and soup out of a giant black belly-pot when they jumped the train near her place looking for food. A fantastic cook, she gave them free fresh home-cooking ...which my grandpa, the hunter/provider of scarce food, wasn't to thrilled about... but she did it anyway. She even had a man from the north who jumped off and refused eat once he saw her skin color, saying, "I don't take nothing from a n...er." A couple of months later he came back around, skin and bones, and apologized for his earlier, unfriendly behavior. He tore that food up (her words) with the rest of the train jumpers. My grandmother, a mid-wife, chef, and healer was full of such stories. Let me tell you about the time.... oops, you'll have to read the book.

You guys were so lucky to see an armadillo so close during the day! I grew up in the "hill country" of Texas and I don't think I ever saw one. They are usually so shy and hunt at night. They are the weirdest, cutest little creatures. You will also probably see a lot of deer. Can't wait to see where in TX you explore next.

I'm sure someone has already mentioned it but the missions are nice to stop and see. San Antonio is beautifully old and rich with history. San Fernando Cathedral is also connected to the fight at the Alamo in which the bells were rung to warn of the approaching Mexican army. Thanks for visiting San Antonio and I hope y'all come visit us again! Happy Trails ❤️
Always love to see my city being enjoyed by all, you all missed our annual two week fiesta with tons of events and happenings around the city with two of the largest parades in the country one day and one night time parade. Hill country has a lot of gems hope you hit a few! Safe travels..
Native San Antonioian here. Not sure if it’s been mentioned in other comments but the Defenders of the Alamo held back Santa Anna’s troops for 13 days. So glad y’all are enjoying our city. BTW the trees are called crepe myrtles.
I was just in San Antonio for the first time a few months ago. I so wanted to see an armadillo. Never saw one in person, not even in a zoo. I was not as lucky as you. If you are still there I highly recommend going to the Natural Bridge Caverns. That was the highlight of my trip. Just breathtaking!
It throws me for a loop, seeing someone enjoy the Riverwalk so much. I live about 45 minutes from the river, and it's wonderful seeing people from the other side of the world enjoying our city so much.
You seem like such a happy couple. I wish you the trip of a lifetime!
Interesting sights on the north part of the river walk. Also the Missions are worth a look. Summers can be brutal.
Glad you loved being in San Antonio! It's always nice to see someone enjoy my city 🥰
Aww, I’m so glad you enjoyed our city!

As a lifetime resident here, I would like to thank you for complimenting and enjoying our beautiful city. It is truly a wonder to experience. I love SA!
So San Antonio charmed you both? My beautiful city tends to do that! 🤩 The Texas history teacher in me feels compelled to correct one statement however…the Battle of the Alamo lasted thirteen days keeping Santa Anna and the Mexican Army busy while Stephen F. Austin and others were writing and signing the Texas Declaration of Independence elsewhere. The battle that lasted only 20 minutes was the Battle of San Jacinto in April 1836 which ended the Texas Revolution and forced the surrender and retreat of the Mexican Army. Thank you for saying such enchanting things about our incredible city and please come back again soon! 🥰
So glad you enjoyed your time here. I live in north San Antone now and used to live in Kerrville. Never have I heard someone call it the Venice of Texas, but it makes sense! There are so many things to do here but you captured what us locals have to deal with, it's ALWAYS crowded, and HOT. Great job and come back soon!

I am born and raised in San Antonio Texas. I personally think we are very underrated because we do not have a big Media...like New York. I literally live less than 5 miles behind those BIG BOOTS 👢 Our neighborhood was once featured in Time Life magazine over 60 years ago because we are known for how wide our streets are. I'm glad 😊 you enjoyed your stay in San Antonio. There is truly so many things to do here...especially if you have children. I like to describe our city as a larger city with a small town of friendliness. Safe travels to you folks 🌹
Ahhh Yes,....My hometown 💕. If you think that's pretty..huh. Come back in December for the The Nighttime Winter River Parade. It's barge after barge floating down the river at night. All beautifully decorated with lights and gorgeous themes. Also the music is a one of kind fusion of cultures we call... Tejano Music 🎶. Boy do I miss that town. There's ALWAYS something fun going. This is truly the Fiesta City because we will hold a festival for ANYTHING & EVERYTHING. Any reason to come together and enjoy great food, great beer & great folks💕
What a wonderful video of San Antonio. Guess what, I have been there myself!! What a beautiful city. We stayed for 10 days. Walked the river, rode on the river barge and ate a restaurant overlooking the river. What wonderful memories that was, in 2015!!
I will be going to San Antonio today and after days of researching in youtube for vlogs, this is the best video so far. Very realistic.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! Thanks so much for your amazing commentary about my beloved home- San Antonio, Texas!!I LOVE this place!! I came here at the age of 6, in 1966! I am 62 and I have no intention of living anywhere else! The “bark less” trees were probably crepe myrtles. I can’t be sure without seeing the top/leaves.If you visit in the early summer they bloom profusely and are spectacularly beautiful! I agree with you that downtown is wonderful but so is the rest of our “fair city”. We have five Catholic missions (including the Alamo) that have been named a world heritage site by the United Nations. We also have 2 amusement parks. Something for everyone!

People tend to forget that the Alamo as we know it now is just the chapel and the old barracks. The walls of the fort extended to the north, which is now the main post office 9:33, and the west, where the line of buildings were across the streets 10:05 . at 10:12 That is the Emily Morgan hotel, just next to your head, named after General Santa Ana's mistress. She was helping the Texas rebels. the story goes that she " kept him occupied" while Sam Houston could get his men positioned for the final assault on the Mexican Army's camp for the battle of San Jacinto, just East of Houston, Tx. 10:26 as youre walking, there is a row of flat stone in the street. that is to the where the wall extended to on the south side. the first battle of 12 was Gonzales, with the famous " Come and Take it" flag, the final being San Jacinto.
A lot of folks already said it, but thank you for visiting S.A. and the nice things you said. Just going off the trunk, the trees are crepe myrtles. They put out bunches of flowers starting in late spring and all summer. They come in colors spanning white, red, pink, and purple. Also, be careful with armadillos, they carry leprosy.

As someone who lives in San Antonio, downtown is sort of just and eh tourist trap. If you really wanna see some cool places check out any of the old Spanish Missions on the southside or hit up the SAMA or McNay art museum's north of downtown. I would also say that all of the best mexican restaurants will be northside or southside of downtown, La Fogata, Soluna, La Fonda being a few of my personal favorites for real Mexican/TexMex food

Welcome to my Beautiful City! Too bad you missed Fiesta. Millions of people come from around the world for the event.

Glad to see you all enjoyed the city!
Glad you enjoyed my hometown!
Oh man Mi Tierra is a whole experience. They have mariachis, a little dulceria and the food is muy bueno. I'm sure the other place is good too but next time around it is definitely worth the wait ! The line goes pretty quick most of the time.

Thanks for the tips!
I lived right by the courthouse for a few years. 3am dogwalks along the River walk were the best.
