Great video, nicely done.
This is well done. Such a beautiful state with the most down to earth locals.
You really captured the spirit of coastal Maine. Well done!
Incredible video! Thanks to the author of the channel for this fascinating video! It is interesting to see how people live in other countries! It is very important to know foreign languages on such trips. I would like to recommend to all travelers a practical guide to learning foreign languages by Yuriy Ivantsiv "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign languages". This book contains a lot of useful tips on how to learn a foreign language for tourists, students, entrepreneurs and anyone who needs a foreign language in life. There are a lot of good tips on how to solve problems with the language from beginner to advanced level of language learning. It turns out that the traveler only needs to know a few dialogues and you can easily travel around the world! You don't have to spend a lot of time to fully learn a foreign language, you just need to learn what you can use when you travel. I wish everyone exciting travels!
I was in B H about 10 yrs. ago, I'm planning on going back, It is beautiful!!
What a lovely video❤ I live in Rockland and it's special to me... 6:20 but so to are all the towns in Maine...coastal or inland. This state is breathtaking year round but for obvious reasons not so well traveled in Winter months.
Color’s in Maine I don’t think so if their were I wouldn’t vacation there😮 i know it’s not politically correct just being honest 😊
Where are you from lovely accent you should do a trip to Scotland and myself and family would show you around and point you in some directions of where to go there is so much to see here history culture castles museums and most of the art museums are free
Montserrat is beautiful
Very beautiful. What's it like traveling alone? I am traveling to Europe alone in two months and I am both excited and nervous. Not nervous of crime or anything like that, just nervous on how I will feel being alone.
Thank you! I knew when I started solo traveling that I already enjoyed doing things alone - going to museums, sightseeing, shopping, eating - essentially, all of the things I would be doing alone as a solo traveler. If you're not used to doing things alone, you can always practice by doing a day trip nearby. Pick some new area to explore, and treat it like a mini solo trip! Also, I make sure I'm never 100% alone for the whole week. Every solo trip I've done, I've gone on guided tours where I get a chance to meet other travelers, or I've reached out to internet friends that live in the area to meet up. Lastly, I would say that documenting my trips by making these videos helps me feel less alone, because it's like I'm bringing people with me (even if it's just family and friends that I'm updating). Have a creative outlet to keep you company throughout your trip - journaling, art, photography, videography - they'll all make you feel less alone. Best of luck!
I LOVED this video ❤️ You did a great job with your video, nice work! I’m considering doing a trip there solo as well. It seems like everywhere you turn is beautiful!
I forgot to ask! What time of year did you go?
Thank you! This was the first week of July, with my first full day being July 4th. For the most part, the temperatures were in the 50s/60s, which I found perfect for hiking.
My Mom grew up in York, Maine!! The State of Maine is so Beautiful and I have spent many late summers and early Falls in Maine. I love all the small towns along coastal route 1 just Amazing places.
What an amazing place to grow up!
So far as the years go by, Seward is my favorite. Next year Homer is on the list while I'm up there for the summer.
Ooh, enjoy! Homer looks gorgeous (though I guess everywhere in the region is gorgeous ha).
December 1st anniversary cake
❤❤❤❤❤
Boothbay bound in November 😊
Love your video! At the 5:00 mark, you're at a parking lot then walk down a trail. Would you please tell me where this is in Acadia? And did that trail lead you to the ocean? Thanks! We're going next month and would love to visit that spot.
Thank you! I believe this was at Schooner Head Overlook - it's not a hiking trail, but a path to the cliffs shown in the video. There's a parking lot at the overlook so you can stop on your way around the park. For actual hiking trails, there are a number with ocean views, I just don't know the names off the top of my head.
@@mackenziekinzel Great! Thank you for responding. We'll be stopping there on our way to the park.
I loved your video. All the shots were beautiful. I have two questions if you don't mind. What program did you use to edit your footage and how did you get it all to look the same. Was it a filter? I love how it doesn't have all that contrast.
Thank you! All of my videos so far have been edited in iMovie since I'm holding off on investing in FinalCutPro (or something along those lines) until I have a computer that can handle it. iMovie has simple saturation/contrast/filter sliders I use to edit the footage - one setting can be applied to many clips at once. iMovie does severely lack in animation/transition/title capabilities, so I hope to learn a more professional editor within the next year.
hows the fall foliage in september?
It seemed to be at peak colors the last week of September/first week of October in 2020, so this trip was perfectly timed! The first week of October was the most popular time for people visiting Acadia.
Please tell me they’re not doing the mask bullshit anymore.🤨
This trip was in fall 2020, so things are probably more relaxed now!
Me n my brother want to fly there soon. This helps a lot on places to go
Awesome, hope you enjoy it!
Nice video. Makes me want to go again.
Lakes region is also very beautiful as well as the Casco Bay Islands. Camden is worth the drive but skip the Waterfront restaurant.
Noted, I definitely want to explore more!
Hi, are there many dark-skinned people in Maine you saw on your trip? Thanks!
I went up to Maine last weekend to work a FIRST Robotics off season event outside of Portland. I did n to see many people of color there. I went to Old Orchid Bay in search of a Lobster Roll for dinner after the event and saw swarms of tourist there. There were some people of color there. Maine is something like 95 percent Caucasian. You should still go. They were very nice people all the same.
@@KokoEd ok, i know they are nice people but i am more interested in moving. So, I'd love to go in a safe/quiet place which I found in Bar Harbor, Maine but i wonder how welcoming are the people of mine to outsiders...
@@emmanuelkofyagyapong6382 This video may give you a good idea about Maine. ua-cam.com/video/UDgb-_5OXEc/v-deo.html
Very nicely done. Thanks for sharing.
CONGO ua-cam.com/video/MIqscnlgD6A/v-deo.html
Great Job representing my state too. Miss it terribly but I’ll be back soon.😌
You stopped in gay town
I'm a local and you skipped right through all the good places to visit on your trip and just went to the tourist stuff you didn't show any of the good parts of route one we are way more than just Acadia and Portland
Yeah - with it being my first time and only having a few days, I wanted to hit the most popular things first. Suggestions for future trips are welcome!
Living in RI going to bar harbor for the first time tomorrow. Been up to Portland a bunch of times. Love it up there
Stop posting videos about maine. We are sick of u tourists. From: The woods in maine.
Great video! From Mississippi, have been to Maine twice; once in summer, once in the Fall. Absolutely gorgeous state! Traveled from Boothbay Harbor to Bar Harbor. LOVE the NE!
I saw your post and wondered What all you did and Boothbay and along the way up to Bar Harbor. We are spending three days in each location. We have thought about doing a well boat excursion in either place, but I am concerned about the weather and possible seasickness on the boat. Did you do any boat tours, and if so which area did you do them? Any ideas would be appreciated if you have the time. Thank you
Hey Melissa, at the advice of a friend who went to Boothbay Harbor every year for 19 years until her husband passed away, we stayed at BB Harbor every night and took day trips every day from there. In retrospect, I would rather have done what you’re doing. The places we went were as follows: Bath, ME, Maritime Museum, LL Bean headquarters at Freeport, ME, Wiscasset, ME, Reds Eats, a famous small place with DELICIOUS lobster rolls(has been featured on the Food Network, UA-cam it), Acadia National Park was gorgeous, has become very crowded, we LOVED Camden, go to Mount Batte, beautiful view of Camden Harbor, Darmariscotti, ME, and Pemaquid Point for a stunning view of the Atlantic and a famous lighthouse, Rockland, ME to the Maine Lighthouse Museum. Wonderful trip. This was about 10 years ago, so things may have changed. Right before covid, we toured New England in the Fall, briefly going into Maine, but focusing on MA, VT, and NH. Hope this helps. Safe travels, and enjoy!
Also, we didn’t do any boating. If you are concerned about motion sickness, you may want to consider getting a scopolamine patch that goes behind your ear. I think it is prescription med. Be aware that if you touch it, and rub your eye, it can dilate your pupil and cause blurry vision. No danger to you, just a word of advice
@@mikewest9017 funny that you mentioned the patch dilating your eyes. 20 years ago we went in a cruise for our 5 anniversary and I had a patch behind my ear. One day I changed it and when we went to dinner I couldn’t read the menu. My eyes were dilated. I must have touched my eyes. I just thought it was the new patch. Thank you for the travel tips!
You’re welcome. Yes a side effect of that med is mild blurry vision, much worse if you touch your eye after touching the patch. Something to be aware of if driving while using the patch
Nice, I prefer inner rural part of Maine more over the populated coast but that is one of perks of the state is a bit of something for everyone
Video achaa laga
This is very beautiful!!! What do you use to record on?
Thank you! On this trip, I just recorded with my iPhone X.
I currently live in Texas. I want to live in Maine. 🤷♀️
Great video. Glad you got to enjoy Maine :)
Just drove to bar harbor from Long Island, NY. Hiked a few days in Acadia then stopped in Portland and Boston on the way home for a few days each. Actually got home yesterday. Very fun trip!
Wondering if you did any drive in Alaska. I'm trying to go but I don't drive at all since I live in NYC. And trying to go this August
I didn't drive! I used Uber and the local taxi service in Anchorage (they have an app). I took the Alaska Railroad to Seward, and I walked everywhere there since it is a small town. The railroad also goes north from Anchorage to Denali and Fairbanks. Enjoy your trip!
@@mackenziekinzel Thank you for answering my question. Amazing content
i lived in Seward over ten years ago and am returning for a wedding in two weeks. this video of the familiar things that ive forgotten has got me in tears! happy excited tears! thank you!
Ah, Seward is lovely. Have a great time on your trip!
Congratu;ations on an absolutely awesome video. I have watched 20 or so videos on UA-cam about what to see and do in Alaska and I think yours was one of the best. Thank you so much for sharing your adventure with us.
Thank you! I hope you enjoy your trip if you're going
Route 1 is the coastal route from Florida to Maine. A key note to visiting my state is to visit coastal towns and beaches during the middle of the week. Less traffic and easier to find parking. Also if you are going to my favorite town Boothbay, park by the fire station, sure you pay but it's the cheapest(after a certain time it's free) and they give you a cool map.
What’s the name of the place where you got the pizza in Bar Harbor?
Route 66 Restaurant!
I am going on a Maine coastal road trip this summer. So, these videos are sooo informative. I chose Kennebunk, cape Elizabeth, and Trenton/ Acadia Park as our destinations for staying. Going as far as Bar harbor before back home. 9 days . I seeking more ideas and tips. I know I cant chose live on a boat lobster for dinner and take it to a restaurant in Portland to cook, in that time my hubby will make it a pet and name him " claws" . seriously.
Sounds like a great plan, have fun!
coming from fellow solo traveler-- i loved these vibes
whats your friends name snickers? Snooka?
