    Wow! So very different from your last vlog here, love the vitality! The crowds would do me in, but it’s lovely that London is so alive again. I could definitely not live there, even though those row houses and mews houses are gorgeous! When I’ve seen videos of those shops and stalls I assumed they were low quality goods, so really appreciated your info on them. I like the more quirky things, like the cushion covers, and would be more inclined to get one of those as a memento. It would be something I’d use daily as an accent piece and a great souvenir. You could use one of those cushion covers, surrounded by less flamboyant ones, in your decor. Nothing wrong with a piece that gives you a grin. Thank you for sharing this, Hannah, really enjoyed it!

  • @questionmark9819

    this was lovely to watch & see how things have changed, I lived in the area between 1996-2014 & it really did change.
    I just wanted to recommend that if anyone is planning on visiting NH that the best days are Friday, Saturday & Sunday plus different days vary with what you can buy etc., the market stalls change & if you really want to see everything I would do an AirB&B for the whole weekend. leave early & go to each different section per day, don't do the entire market & area & food all in one day because the choice is vast. Portobello market does give Camden vibes in the sense that they also have different parts. Another thing about the food is that there is a huge amount of choice so 3 days is perfect as you can maybe go with a couple of friends, buy pretty much from each stall & you can get to try a little bit of everything, just remember that if the food is popular it sells out by 4-5pm so early arrival is necessary. it's not just savoury foods but there are some lovely foods you can cook at home, the Spanish shop also has a café so you could try something different. the food was always varied & I loved living there & miss not having a market a few minutes walk away anymore 😢
    enjoy and check out other things in the area like the brand museum, next to Ladbroke Grove Station & there's a nice bakery & chippy there too. definitely worth a weekend, so much to explore oh and I nearly forgot, the electric cinema, nice non typical cinema that has sofas ❤ have fun

    So interesting to see the change between your earlier walkthrough of Portobello Rd to this vlog, it's so good to see that London and in some ways the world is re-opening to people again. Filming through glass, all you just need is a polarising filter that you stick on the end of your lens, rotate 90 degrees and you can see through glass/reflections. It's also good for glare and seeing into water etc. no biggie though. Thanks for getting through all the crowds and all that, appreciate your work Hannah!

    I was there back in March when I was visiting London but went on a weekday. They had a few food stands and just a couple stalls so it was a lot easier to walk around and take photos. Beautiful homes there and loved all the colors. I bought some of those pretty mugs from the gentleman at Alice's as a little souvenir and reminder of my time exploring there and I love them.

    They do have the fruit and veg in the week day.. and other stuff in the week day. I am happy it's busy as it helps support the local business again.. We need that in market life that is part of our British history. You covered more tourist areas and not were the locals go.. so different vibes ✨️ I love you for taking the the time to walk through Thank you 😊 🙏🏽 💛

    Great Vlog Hannah. Agree regarding the Portobello Gin, gorgeous stuff. I don't think you are being negative about living in the locale of where you were. I lived for some years in a riverside property which was in a local beauty spot. There was a right of way on the far bank , the domain of dog walkers and sometimes picnicers. I did not think it would be a problem . I was wrong, never underestimate people's ability to be nosy. People standing and staring into our back garden was commonplace, and even at times people with binoculars. It could be quite unsettling, It was one of the key reasons we moved. I've learnt that some places , whilst great to visit, are not that good to live in, for various reasons. P/S, The car you commented on early in the vlog, was an Aston Martin. Very nice!

    And your dress was gorgeous. You looked amazing 🌺
    Liberty's.... Good Lord. I have a list of WANTs now, thank you very much.
    And this video, yeah... There goes every paycheck I will ever make.
    I have a question.. what do the zigzag lines on the road mean? We don't have those over here.
    Thank you, dear girl, for taking this walk for us. I don't know that I could handle those crowds. I am short of patience. To be in London, though..... You lucky thing. Be safe... See you next Friday!!

    Loved this. For some reason, I never was that interested in Notting Hill before (loved the movie, though). But it looks really amazing and not what I expected. I would give anything to go to some of the shops! That is one thing I missed out on when being in the UK - I went to a lot of museum and country house gift shops, but not shops like these. When you mentioned Holland Park, my ears perked up. I know about Holland Park from the Judi Dench and Geoffrey Palmer show, As Time Goes By. If I ever get to go back to London, I am going to make sure that I see the house when Jean and Lionel lived in Holland Park! I will have to look up your older video, maybe I'll see it.

I love your running commentary and how you are always careful to include lots of views of food everywhere you wander. Such a treat to see! I fantasize about just renting a tiny apartment in London for a month and using your posts as my tour guide. Maybe soon!
