Hi, welcome to my new UA-cam Channel! I'm hoping to share my interests in travel, original songs and music, animation, photography, and generally anything and everything creative! Hopefully you'll subscribe to my channel to see much more.
A little bit about me:
Music and song-writing. I started writing songs in my early teens. I started writing songs before I could actually play any instruments! I've been trying to catch up ever since. I had a year of classical guitar lessons while at college, and then I saved up for an electric guitar. Later on I bought a keyboard, and taught myself how to play. Then I had professional singing lessons for about three and a half years and was entered into the Gosport Music Festival by my teacher where I won a certificate. It was the most nerve-wracking thing I've ever done. I have written over 60 songs.
I've always loved animation and special effects and hope to combine these interests into helping make some videos for my songs.

Calella Song
A lot of people visit Calella because of the variety of shops, bars and restaurants, the wide beach, and the convenient train line to Barcelona and other places. Whenever I visit Calella I look forward to the peacefulness of the deserted beach and the avenue of trees and the lighthouse when the sun goes down. I've made lots of other videos on Calella and surrounding towns, but here is a short three minute video of what I like about it, and I've added some original music (which I wrote and recorded) to go with it. Hope you like it.

The video for this song was filmed at Bognor Regis, on the south coast of England. It was the ideal location for this song as I was able to use the pier to take some drone-type shots. Incidentally, the flames on the posts on the beach weren't real, they were actually a special effect!

Very nice Paul x
Thank you! x
Lived on Burlington Road between 2019 and 2023, and before then all my friends would live in student house shares round here. Memories...
I know Burlington Road, I had friends who lived there! Bedford Place has changed quite a bit over the years since I first went there. The chip shop is still there so it's not all bad though! 🙂
Very informative, I've just seen the hotel that I'm interested in, and it seems that it's a good location, so might book this. Thanks!
Thank you, I'm glad my video was helpful to you! Pineda de Mar is a lovely place, and a great location to visit all the other resorts along that coast. I've stayed there twice but usually visit if I stay at Calella or Santa Susanna. I hope you enjoy your holiday! 🙂👍

Not much happening here
It's fairly quiet some evenings but plenty of cafes and restaurants still open till late. This wasn't filmed at the height of the season so I guess it can get quite busy then. I never go in those months as it's too hot for me!
Former Thornycroft apprentice. Been in Nz for over 25 years now. It's all gone.
It's certainly changed a lot in that area. In fact what I didn't show were all the hundreds of high rise flats, so I might pop down there sometime and do another video of the things I left out! I remember how it used to be. The whole of Southampton has changed considerably over the last 15 years, and not always for the better!
wel een prachtige roda sticker aan het begin 045💛🖤🛠
Hi there, hope all is well with you. Must say well relaxing 😎 setting. Very new here
Thank you! Yes, Calella can be a very relaxing place, and can be busy too, depending on the time of day! I'm looking forward to going there again and to make some more videos too! 🙂👍
What a beautiful place! The song is so lilting! 😍
Thank you! I'm glad you liked it. It's also my favourite piece of music I've written. Usually I write songs, but it's good to add a bit of original music to some of the travel videos 🙂 🎵🎶
@@pbcreative6388 And you don't have to worry about licensing! Even better!
@@sierralovesdogs That's true, no copyright problems! This was filmed in May of this year, and it rained 5 days out of the 7, hence all the puddles! ☔
@@pbcreative6388 Wet month!
Is It a flea market??used objects too??
I'm not quite sure with this market, in fact I've seen at least 4 different markets in Calella. In addition to this one, there was one along the main street (in front of McDonalds, and opposite the Amaika Hotel), one in the large carpark near the police station/museum, and one along the beach walk. The beach walk definitely had lots of used objects/antiques etc. Not sure how often these markets are on, some I think are weekly though. I hope this helps a bit! 👍🙂
Yo estado ace poco en calella es una pasada esta ai de verdad yo bolveria mil veces esta ayi ❤
Calella is lovely, I go there a lot! I'm glad you like it too! I've just uploaded another short video of Calella with music as well 🙂👍
Me and my family have just come back from here! Such a beautiful place!
Glad you enjoyed your holiday there! I've stayed there and most of the other resorts along that coast, I think it's really a great area (and great value too!). Thanks for your comment, much appreciated 👍🙂
@pbcreative6388 I'll deffo be visiting again! Hopefully not too far into the future! Not a problem! Gave you a cheeky sub aswell! Take care!
@@RandomShortz439 Glad to hear you're going back there! Thanks for the sub, much appreciated! I'll be making more videos when I return. It's also a good base to visit other places toi, and the trains are so cheap (compared to the UK!). 👍🙂
Great video, beautiful place, Paul. I love waves, beach, sea...
@@U2ENDOFTHEWORLD Thank you! I love it there and this video shows why, it's very peaceful sometimes, a great place to unwind 👍🙂
Calella, agua y árboles
And lots of sand too! It's a big place, but can be very peaceful too 👍🙂
Great to see how the city has changed since I left - mostly for the better by the looks of it.
Thank you for your comment. It's certainly changed a lot in recent years! There's still a lot going on around the Bargate area especially. I'll do an update video soon, so watch this space! (I've filmed many other parts of Southampton if you want to take a look!) 👍🙂
thx for that, I grew up in C/F
@@kenmcewan9811 My pleasure, glad you liked it. Hope to do another one in the area soon, watch this space! 🙂
I walked exact same places millions times and i also used to sit here in this bus stop wow what a memories. it makes my heart beats and brain cells stop. My soul still walking there 😢😭
I used to live in Shirley too, when I first moved to Southampton, so know it very well. It's changed a bit over the years, but it's still the same old Shirley! Think I might make a video on Freemantle next, if it doesn't rain! 👍🙂
Just spent a week at the Mercury Yacht Harbour in a caravan. Good site. Handy 20 minute walk into the village. Had a couple of great lunches at the Beach Hut cafe. Short pink ferry trip over to Warshaw. Left the car behind and used the bus into Southampton and a train from Hamble Station into Portsmouth. Enjoyed our week as weather was good.
Glad you had good weather! I've not tried the Beach Hut Cafe yet, I will have to put that on my list! 👍🙂
I've been there and loved it but here, looking at the somewhat impersonal apartment buildings and the general calm mood, resembling the Sixties, I even get a kind of Soviet Union impression. I think this is perfect for those who find Lloret de Mar too crowded and hectic although even there, it's not very nervous.
Thank you for your comment. I like Pineda de Mar, and as you say it's very quiet compared to Lloret de Mar. It's a shame the weather wasn't very good when I filmed there, the weather was great the following day but I was then filming Santa Susanna! Hopefully I'll make another one in better weather.
@@pbcreative6388 L' Espiga D' Or is also a jewel of a coffee bar, to relax and forget the stress of traveling. I did a little chat with a very friendly Indian or Pakistani shop owner there in the center and left with things I didn't need ;-) Impossible to resist...
2024, beach is getting smaller and smaller 😮
@@JohanTheunissen yes, I noticed that when I passed through a month ago, I was quite shocked how little there was left of the beach!
Brings back memories when i lived above in Midanbury Lane in the mid eighties 🙂 I often went to the fish shop back then. Ta for posting this, you made my day ! I do miss Hamphire.
Thank you! I enjoyed making this one as I used to live there, and luckily I don't live far away! I'm trying to get around to all parts of Southampton to make videos like this. Not sure what to film next! Watch this space 👍🙂
I lived nearby for many many years and just a couple of years ago moved to the peace and quiet of Ireland! I miss Hampshire and the choice of shops and facilities that we were so used to; but not the noise of the traffic!
@@rh8915 Thank you for your comment, I lived there for a few years and now only live just up the road so I do pass by regularly. The traffic in Hampshire as a whole has got a lot lot worse I'm afraid, so many thousands of new houses being built all around Southampton and the surrounding areas. That's progress I suppose (!). But apart from the traffic, it's still a nice place! I envy your peace and quiet though! 🙂👍
Thank you! I thoroughly enjoyed going for an imaginary stroll, my only complaint is.......my stroll was too short.
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it! I promise I'll do a longer video next time. I keep meaning to make another one in Lymington. Also planning Lyndhurst and Burley. Any other suggestions, feel free to let me know! 🙂
Hollla holaa amigo
Ja bilem tu superrr❤❤
What a nice city❤
Thank you! Yes, it's a lovely, relaxing place to visit. I've stayed there a couple of times, as well as many of the surrounding towns. This is the most relaxing place I've visited. 🙂👍
An interesting and informative video. I don't think BlueSea is too far out from the town - I've stayed at places that are further out and just walked in. But if you have mobility issues, this is something to consider.
Thank you for your comment, I personally liked the hotel - apart from the food - but for anyone with mobility issues there could be some problems. If there were shops a little nearer, that would help. I'll definitely do more hotel reviews (this is only my second one!). 👍🙂
The potential that Southampton City Council fails to recognise is all around us, this is another example of what could have been a huge attraction with the right care and maintenance. Yes it a busy waterway, that in itself is an attraction to some, but an opportunity to make this into a much nicer leisure area has never been considered. On the other hand, I guess we are lucky its not been developed into more hotels, restaurants and student flats.
I agree with you, it's a wasted opportunity. It's still a nice place for a walk (on a sunny day!), but could be so much nicer! 👍🙂
Our favourite home from home ❤️
It's a lovely relaxing place to visit 😎👍
@@pbcreative6388 Absolutely. I’ve been 7 times. Fabulous holiday resort to chill in. Great vid 👍🏻
Hopefully I'll film some more UA-cam videos next time I'm there. I also filmed Puerto Calero while there, but planning on filming other parts of the island 👍😎
@@pbcreative6388 Old Teguise town is stunning and untouched with a beautiful church and we always make a point of visiting every time we go to Costa Teguise. Enjoyed Calero but only big enough for a day visit we thought.
Agreed, Puerto Calero is a tiny place, I was only there about an hour and a half, just long enough to make my UA-cam video and grab a coffee! I'll definitely be visiting more places there and making more videos - watch this space! 👍😎
Good video! I am happy the swan did not attack you! I ran from one recently! 😆Dropped a like for you!
Thank you, glad you liked it! I keep meaning to film another one in Hamble, it was so quiet the day I went there. Usually it's packed! 🙂👍
lovely relaxing video! Nice relaxing music as well!
Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it 👍🙂
❤️❤️❤️!!!
💕!!! I've just got back from there yesterday and will have another video of Pineda de Mar (a seafront walk) very soon. Watch this space! 👍🙂
Danke schön für das Video ich fahre jedes Jahr nach Calella
Thank you, I'm glad you liked it. I got back from Calella again this morning! One of my favourite places to visit 👍🙂
very nice and informative video. Thx 🙏
Thanks 👍😊
Amazing piece, this is my home town. Well done!! ❤️❤️
Thank you! It was really enjoyable to do this song and video, it's a good location. I might do a "normal" UA-cam travel video on Bognor Regis the next time I visit - watch this space! 🙂
Really interesting chord progression. Love the turnaround from the chorus to the verse. Surprising. Solid production as well.
Thanks, much appreciated 👍. I really enjoyed doing this one, it took more time than my other songs mainly because of the video, but it was fun to do.
I like to sing and in Lloret de Mar there are karaoke bars but I love this place too because it has a peaceful, calm and perhaps somewhat melancholic feel. And one can do nice walks to Calella (park, huge shopping street) and further Sant Pol de Mar (even more peaceful) . Then there is the station allowing to go to Barcelona very easy and cheap.
Yes, I agree it does have a melancholic feel, and more peaceful than the other resorts along that coast. I've also been to Sant Pol de Mar which I also like. I'm planning to visit later this month so will make some more UA-cam videos. This one I did on Pineda de Mar has become my 4th most popular video (out of nearly 70!), so it goes to show that people want to see what it's like! Next time I'll film along the coastal walk as well, as it was a little windy one the day I filmed this one. 🙂
Byłam w tym pięknym hotelu. Potwierdzam bardzo sympatyczny personel, doskonale potrawy, estetycznie podane. Piękny taras na dachu a widoki fantastyczne.... ❤
Dziękuję za twoje komentarze. Tak, to piękny hotel, nie mogę się doczekać powrotu tam w kwietniu! 🙂👍
Czy szoping jest daleko? Dziękuję
Would you recommend this place over the GHT Martim hotel?
I personally really like Pineda de Mar, it's a lot smaller than Calella where the hotel Maritim is situated. The seafront walk at Pineda is really nice. The day that I made the video was rather windy so unfortunately I didn't get to show much of the walk, but I am visiting the area again in April so hope to make another video then. I've stayed in two hotels in Pineda, the Sumas Hotel Stella & Spa and the second one was the Aqua Hotel Promenade & Spa. Both highly rated on Tripadvisor and I thought both were good with good food etc. If you like a little more peace and quiet then I would suggest Pineda de Mar out of all the resorts along that coast. Most have a train station so you can visit all the others at your leisure. I tend to stay in Calella more due to the fact there's such a huge choice of things to see and lots of shops and cafes etc. But if I ever win the lottery, I would love to buy a place in Pineda de Mar! Am planning more videos in the area soon, please feel free to make any suggestions! 👍🙂
@@pbcreative6388 thank you for the detailed information I really appreciate it. I’ve booked a trip to Calella. So I’m very pleased to hear that I’ll be spoilt for choices, as I’ll be exploring most for most days. Thanks once again and I’ve also subscribed. You
Many thanks for subscribing to my channel, I really appreciate that! The train line along that coast is one of the reasons I have been there so often. Barcelona is only about an hour away, the same with Girona. And the trains are cheap compared to the UK! I'm sure I'll be making more UA-cam videos when I return in April. Hope you enjoy your holiday! 🙂 @@yelladean2598
For me, it was in fhe 80s, plus i worked nearby. They were good times and after work i woukd get a portion if chops from Ted's Chippy
The best chip shop around in those days! 🙂👍
Was a bit lost for a while here then i saw the red iion pub and realised the main road is now a walking mall. a lots changed in 40 yrs. I remember going to Bitterne Bowling on the high street with my cousins almost 50 years ago.
Left Woolston for Perth Oz 41 years ago. Grew up a little behind where that Lidyl store now is. It really dosen't look like it has changed for the better. Victoria rd was thriving back then. Thank you for posting. very interesting.
Many thanks for your comment! I agree, Woolston has changed a lot over the years, in fact I drove through there yesterday and it's amazing how many high-rise buildings are there now, just near the Lidl shop. I ought to go down there again and make another short video showing that part of the town. As soon as the weather improves here I will try to do just that 👍🙂
Souless dump
Looks the same as it did 30 year's ago! 😉
I grew up in Eastleigh, it sometimes gets a bad press but I always feel at home when I visit there 🙂
Memories!!! Cheers😎
I lived at the top of Shirley High Street and the bottom! Cheers
WTF a Waitrose! Lol, apart from that it hasn't really changed in 30 years! 😁
And a Sainsbury's!
Yep, a Sainsburys! I can't afford Waitrose so I go to Sainsbury's as it's also got an underground car park so you don't get wet taking your shopping to the car! It rains all the time here it seems! @@tristancan
Cheers! Some great night's had in Bedford place! Small clubs and late night drinking bars! 😎
Thanks for that! I grew up in Netley Abbey, so would pass through Woolston daily! I remember the floating bridge, when it changed into a night club. I also lived in The Cliff Hotel, the white building getting a refit by the look of it! It looks like Annie's cafe is still there!? Best cooked breakfast😁
Thanks for the comment! Netley Abbey is actually on my list of places to video, so once the better weather arrives I'll be there! 👍🙂
I spent a year at the SITB hazel road in 68 on what was the old supermarine works ,vospers gone ,floating bridge gone barely recognizable now ,stayed in digs at 12 peartree gardens bitterne ,house gone ,my landlady Mrs sturdy used to pressure test spitfire fuel tanks in WW2 😊😊😊
Hi, it's certainly changed a lot over the years, just like the rest of the local area. I live ten minutes up the road so visit now and then if I can find a parking space! ☺☺
