It's been lovely seeing my home town through the eyes of a visitor. Hope you enjoyed.

I will need to return with a rental car sometime soon to see all the other areas in the southwest of Wales.

This is so weird but cool. I've been subscribed to your channel since the Tallinn video.. And the colourful street you refer to is the street I actually live on! You've visited some of our best coffee shops there! Another weird link is when you visit Basekamp Coffee and you meet Dil the Dog, the piece of art behind you (a portrait of Dil) was created by my wife!! I'm glad you enjoyed your visit!

That's wild to hear! I often wonder if those houses have thin walls like an apartment or if you are able to make noise in those houses without the neighbours complaining. Yeah, I thought some people would spot the dog portrait in the background of the one clip. I quite liked it! The dog Dil was friendly enough to come over and sniff me before returning to his couch. I didn't want to bother Dil though. He must see dozens of new people each day. I was told to go to Sloth initially by my cousin, but then I asked the owner and a patron there what are the other great coffee shops to visit and they gave me the names. Yes, I enjoyed Swansea more than Newport, Chepstow, and Monmouth in South Wales. It seems very livable. I missed going to Mumbles and Rhossili though - I ran out of time. I would like to target the Welsh-speaking areas of North Wales around Eryri and Anglesey next time. Anyway, I will check out some of your videos now! Thanks for watching.

I would recommend Cardiff and Swansea if you like cities. But if you like nature, Llandudno to Snowdonia and Caernarfon is very nice.

An interesting journey.

Welcome to Wales! :)

A very enjoyable vlog

Thanks for the film...you give life to the ordinary things around us...I live in Wales but have never been to Swansea...you've made me want to visit... the combination of bleakness but pops of interest and coffee is very appealing! You must be wired from the caffeine lol

Happy to hear from a Welshman. I have some distant Welsh ancestors in my family tree. As for the caffeine, my cousin made me a fan of coffee some years ago. You can see the huge bags under my eyes in the mornings on my videos. That's partly from drinking way too much coffee on these trips and then not being able to sleep as the result. Oh well. Still worth it!

That was a very enjoyable tour. Thanks! I don't know if you're still there, but the waterfront museum is free to get into, and very interesting.

I am afraid that I missed it. I thought that Swansea could be fully covered in 3 days but I was unfortunately wrong. Something to do though when I go back.

Thanks! I am always amazed at how many coffee roasters and coffee shops there are in each place that I visit. Someone needs to test them all. Why not me?

Very nice, you missed something very interesting though; the Bible college of Wales, founded by Rees Howells in 1924. Magnificent things have happened from there, and it opened again some years ago. There’s also a museum now. Really worth is. We’re going there two weeks from now. Love from the Netherlands.

Yes, a few blocks more west than I was. I only made it to Singleton Hospital and Swansea University in that direction.

I think that Swansea has more of a small town feel in most places, which I quite like.

So sad to see such a ghost town compared to its heyday. Seeing the market practically deserted, boarded up shops with the beautifil graffitti boardings is a great advertisement for the place.

England's cities are much worse in comparison. I think that Swansea is still a great place to reside.

@@KingOfClay can agree with that, but when you live somewhere like swansea and see it go the way it has, it is sad. Especially when you go to cardiff or even llanelli because you cant get what you want anymore in your local town.
