Love seeing your channel grow! I’m single, I’m 35 I do have 3 children but a lot of the same rules apply. I have to know how to take care of myself (your tip to have a tool box was spot on!) and find joy solo ❤ Your videos give me a lot a peace. Happy Monday !
Such a great video. Relaxing and wonderful. I love the little bakery. Thanks for taking us for the ride. The bread you bought looks delicious. And the walk you took looks so serene. Your dog is adorable. Thanks again for the great video!
You had my full attention at butter croissant and chocolate. 😂 I love your peaceful walks in the woods video. I am so envious. And you couldn't ask for a sweeter little walking companion than Skye. As always, thanks so much for taking us with you! --Paula from Ohio USA 😊
I just found your channel and plan to bing watch. It has been in my mind that I need to learn daily life in the event I am left single. My mom was unexpectedly made a widow, and she was totally unprepared. I want to be able to care for my self so no one feels the need to take control of my life “for my own good “. Thanks for helping me look to the future and prepare.😊👏👏👏
My first Sunday vlog with you and I enjoyed it very much! The cute little bakery (yum) and the walk with Skye. The scenery was beautiful. Thanks for sharing.😊
I am so glad I found you. I am not quite alone but my husband has early signs of dementia so in some ways alone and will be at some point. You are wonderful and very helpful. Bless you
I love your videos. I love Victoria. Your video of the bakery could be a great marketing opportunity for them but I guess they don’t want that. I wish I’d known about Fry Bakery when I visited Victoria.
I'm from the Seattle area and your makes me miss walking my dog on those cool, overcast days. I retired to Florida a few years ago and now I have to worry about the pavement burning her paws! Love your channel, keep up the good work!
You've completely got my attention now. Great bakery. Yes on Sundays my two dogs get their walk in the house!! My one year 7month grandson and his 2 and a half year old cousin call each dog by their names and those dogs run several times to the little ones when called. Of course parents are watching we have to be proactive. But everyone loves the 2 girls and they are so gentle that I think the kids are rougher!!! I think they don't need a walk after so much fun. I wish I had your scenery. It was nice watching. ❤❤GREECE.
I loved your bakery that bread looks amazing. I wanted a slice lol. Thanks for the walk it looks divine and that sweet Skye having so much fun. Wendy from Winnipeg. It will be awhile for us to have such greenery.
Thank you for sharing your corner of the world. Your videos are so peaceful and your dog is just adorable. Keep showing us around and sharing your wisdom. 💕
The baked goods looked delicious 😋 loved the way u pronounced, 'croissant'. I usually reward myself at the end of a long walk 🚶♀️u do it beforehand, lol! ❤
Thank you for taking me along on your walk . I truly love nature and and being out in it. This truly was a blessing to me. Thank you again. The music you chose was just right for this video. I enjoy your channel immensely.
I love Victoria- have only been there once- would love to go back someday. Your dog is so cute and what a great walking trail. Looks dry there . Very wet where I live (WA state).
A woman after my own heart....willing to drive to a good bakery. ❤ I live 90 minutes from Notte's Bon Ton Pastry shop in Vancouver. It's been closed and is supposed to open this spring. I am not so patiently waiting.
I’m lying in bed at 3:30 in the morning watching this video. Couldn’t sleep but the relaxing video and music is making me sleepy. But I have a hunger pain now. Those bakery delicacies might keep me awake the rest of the night 😊
I’m mid-island and spend my time similarly - a good bakery stop and a lovely walk on the nearby trails with my dog. I’m happy to see your pooch with its bear bell on. I recently had a close encounter. Luckily, it was more scared of us.
Your accent is good, I like to hear the pastries names pronounced correctly. A good bakery is nice to have. I usually buy a few things and freeze them. Real bread is so good too, I eat a slice a day so I keep it in my freezer too. Dogs are the best. Your videos are very good.
Just loved the walk through the forest with your dog (name?)!! I love nature, and it would be wonderful if I had such a wonderful walkway to not only get some exercise, but a lovely place to think, be alone, snoop nature out, etc.!!
I have been to Canada two times. Loved it but when in the wilds was always worried about bears and wolves ? have you ever come across them ? Timid U.K lady. we dont have them any more.
We have bears and wolves and cougars on the island. All three live in the area. I've not seen a wolf (yet), but check out this video...near the end I show you what wanders around my back fence at night! ua-cam.com/video/Qg0-5ZhxoY4/v-deo.html :) I'm not afraid, but very alert and respectful...
I like Fry’s as well. I’m told they have pizza there on Sunday afternoons as well as their delicious sourdough. If you’re ever right downtown, you should try Crust Bakery on Fort St. Or Bond Bond’s, of course, which is still great after all these years!
My friend and I are going to Victoria in September! I hope we can find Fry’s Bakery. I live in Minnesota. We’re also going to Vancouver. I love your channel. ❤️
Isn't it good when someone makes you realise how lucky you are? That's what you did showing the croissant and pain au chocolat from the bakery which i can walk past and collect on my five minute walk to work here in the south of France. Mind you rustic breads are further afield.
Hi from Australia. I’ve just discovered your channel and you have just given me so much inspiration to start my own channel. I’m about the same age and my job was made redundant 5 years ago after working for 30 years. I was totally devastated. My hubby soon after was diagnosed with a rare lymphoma and then liver cancer which he is doing well considering a Dr gave him a couple of months to live when he was diagnosed. I am on a disability pension and have a side hustle of making and selling mostly silk scarves on EBay and Etsy. I watch a lot of UA-cam and have often considered creating a channel. One of my main reasons for not starting is having the courage to let go of my fear of being judged and dealing with trolls. Hey I’ve just thought of a video title I can explore! I guess once you dip your toes in the water it gets easier. I have a lot in common with you I think from just watching a couple of videos. Yes I used to drive an hour to a French Patisserie once a fortnight to buy almond croissants, chicken and leek pies, custard and cherry danishes and whole grain sourdough bread. Bliss! Not of course to be eaten all at once!!! I also love a good coffee and books. Bravo to you❤❤❤ Perhaps one day I can interview you on my channel. I’m projecting positive thoughts. PS I haven’t worked out what country you’re from. Is it Canada? I’m going to enjoy watching the rest of your videos in the next couple of weeks. Sending positive energy to your growing success.
It would have been great to see some of the journey, since your part of the world is unfamiliar to me, so your views would be cool. Maybe another time?
WOW... WHAT A BAKERY! I've never seen anything like that...yum! 🙂 You have a very nice life, it seems, without a partner. This world is set up only for couples, which makes the rest of us feel like losers at times. You mentioned your parents are like, four doors down...how wonderful!! I miss mine so much. Many blessings..have a beautiful day! Such a relaxing video..thanks for sharing. Rosemarie ❤
A good bakery is well worth a 2 hour drive. I’d drive 5 hours for a great croissant. It’s incredibly difficult to find quality croissants in the states. 😢
The bakery looked really good, and the morning walk looked great too! If the servers didn't want to be on camera why didn't you blur out the server's face? Other than that the food looked delicious. I like your videos, I've shared with my friends and family.
I can do the blur, but if someone asks me not to film them, I'm respectful of that, rather than argue with them and assure them I'll blur them. It's not a big deal. I'm not out on my pristine little morning to cause conflict. :)
Oh gosh, I’m going to be a negative nelly and suggest you edit the video to get the one employee’s face out of there. There could be a very legitimate reason they don’t want to be on camera. Like they’re trying to hide from an explosive ex on the other side of the country they had to flee from. It’s one thing to get video of the pastries, but another to get people’s faces in a shot. You might be putting that employee in danger.
@@silverandsolo great! I’m super cautious about that as I have a friend that had to flee an abusive partner and we kept her location secret for her protection.

Delicious bakery and a walk in the woods with a beloved dog. Now that’s living! Thanks for the uplifting video.
You had my full attention at butter croissant and chocolate. 😂 I love your peaceful walks in the woods video. I am so envious. And you couldn't ask for a sweeter little walking companion than Skye. As always, thanks so much for taking us with you! --Paula from Ohio USA 😊
What a lovely video! I'm 56, but I retired march 22. I'm apprehensive about this new journey, I'm hoping my days are as serene as yours🎉🎉
Youll find youve never been so busy!
@DeborahThird-og1uo so far it has been busy! I'm helping with the grandkids. Such a joy to be able to do that
I so enjoy your vids. I lived on VI for several years and still miss it. Your numbers are going up.🎉
Hey Joan, good day to you and God bless you abundantly amen.. !
That bread looks amazing. Looks worth the drive.
I love watching your cute little dog Skye, lovely, lovely... thanks for sharing.
What a beautiful Sunday! Your walk was like a peaceful meditation❤ thanks for sharing.😊

I think the drive adds to the delicious anticipation! Thank you for sharing your walk- I’ve moved to the suburbs and desperately miss the woods🌲🌳
I could smell the bread through the screen!
I am so glad I found you. I am not quite alone but my husband has early signs of dementia so in some ways alone and will be at some point. You are wonderful and very helpful. Bless you
Thanks again for another peaceful video.
Simply and purely lovely.

I have a bell on my Beagle as we walk twice daily too, more to warn the bunnies she is on a sniffing expedition. Skye has a good life indeed. 🐶🐶
Hello from Oregon. Thanks for sharing your day.
Nothing like a good bakery and a scenic walk. Great video and thanks for sharing your adventure for the day. Take care.
What a peaceful and scenic walk - thanks for sharing this 😊
I loved your bakery that bread looks amazing. I wanted a slice lol. Thanks for the walk it looks divine and that sweet Skye having so much fun. Wendy from Winnipeg. It will be awhile for us to have such greenery.
Lovely walk. Skye is one lucky dog! I could smell that bread...
I thoroughly enjoyed this morning’s vlog. Such a beautiful, serene walk!
So nice to have a quality bakery - your choices look delicious
Thank you for sharing your corner of the world. Your videos are so peaceful and your dog is just adorable.
Keep showing us around and sharing your wisdom. 💕
Ever so peaceful.
I bought a book to use as my journal brilliant idea, thanks
That looked like a fun and tasty morning get-away.😊
There are so few wonderful little bakeries like this, nice you live within a reasonable drive.
The baked goods looked delicious 😋 loved the way u pronounced, 'croissant'. I usually reward myself at the end of a long walk 🚶♀️u do it beforehand, lol! ❤
Very peaceful way to start the day! 💕
Lovely! What a blessed life you live!
Love you channel.
Great idea, the puppy bell and cute.
What a beautiful area to walk!
Thanks for the info about the bakery! Although I live in Duncan I will have to check it out next time I am down
Thank you for taking me along on your walk . I truly love nature and and being out in it. This truly was a blessing to me. Thank you again. The music you chose was just right for this video. I enjoy your channel immensely.

Lovelt pastries lovely dog vut i despise walking lol
Hello nice walk thank you for sharing. Enjoy your baked goods. 💕NonnaGrace 🐓🐓
I love that little place too

The bread looks delicious!
It is!

Yummy bakery and cute doggy!!!!
Thank you 😋
The sourdough looks delicious. Going to Alaska in September and hope to find some starter. Your day was beautiful.
I can smell that bread all the way over in Ontario. Not fair to tempt us like that. 😂
Happy Sunday Jen!
You too!!
Adorable bakery!
Nice video work!
Thank you! Cheers!

I've been to Bond's, but not Crust! A new adventure awaits me! Thanks!
Gettin fancy with your editing already. You sure work fast when you want to learn something. You are a quick learner. I enjoyed the video. Thanks. ❤️
My friend and I are going to Victoria in September! I hope we can find Fry’s Bakery. I live in Minnesota. We’re also going to Vancouver. I love your channel. ❤️

Is it possible you " take us " to a Spring tour at Butchart garden?
Good thought....I'll look into it!
Hi from Australia. I’ve just discovered your channel and you have just given me so much inspiration to start my own channel.

She is truly inspirational. I made a jump myself into UA-cam after 30 years of corporate life. It is never too late !
Yep, Vancouver Island, Canada. All the best with your channel!
The baked goods looked amazing. I’m gluten intolerant, so wouldn’t be able to join you in enjoying them, but hope they were delicious 😊
Same, I bake a lot in stead. Wish I had something to take on a forest walk today...gotta remember to meal prep...oh wait, that's my Sunday chore 😅
Another lovely, peaceful walk with you & Skye with the bonus of some bakery treats! About how many km/miles is your walks?
I get about 7000 steps in over two daily walks with Skye....
Beautiful scenery!! I'd love an update on the monetization journey!
End of April. After I have a full month's earnings to report.
It would have been great to see some of the journey, since your part of the world is unfamiliar to me, so your views would be cool. Maybe another time?
Probably best to accept and enjoy the stunning scenery Jen shares without too much detail, and protect her safety ❤
❤❤❤
Do you have a camera operator? You do some interesting long shots of yourself.
Just me! The Sunday morning series is my chance to try new techniques and stretch my video skills. Thanks for the comment!
🙏👍😎🇨🇦🐾🌲
I'm always afraid that one of these days Skye decides to mark her territory on your phone 🤣
Another beautiful video. ❤❤ Is the hiking area very long, and is it measured? Thanks!
I get in about 7000 steps for two daily walks with Skye....there are no markers to measure the distance.
WOW... WHAT A BAKERY! I've never seen anything like that...yum! 🙂 You have a very nice life, it seems, without a partner.

There's never anybody on the trails when you're out there
I go early in the morning....sometimes I meet up with someone, but usually we have the trails to ourselves....peaceful!
Look mum, I found a stick…
Sticks are her fav!
Jen, just curious if you are divorced and if so how has this affected your solo journey?
Nope. Forever single!
A good bakery is well worth a 2 hour drive. I’d drive 5 hours for a great croissant. It’s incredibly difficult to find quality croissants in the states. 😢
So good!
What kind of dog?
:)

I can do the blur, but if someone asks me not to film them, I'm respectful of that, rather than argue with them and assure them I'll blur them. It's not a big deal. I'm not out on my pristine little morning to cause conflict. :)
The server's face is in your video and you didn't blur her out. Please don't take it badly. It's just an observation
The one who didn't want to be filmed is not in the video. There is more than one employee at the bakery. I don't take it badly. Cheers!
Thanks for the clarification I'm sure a lot of people were wondering the same. All in all, it is a good video, keep up the good work! 😊
Oh gosh, I’m going to be a negative nelly and suggest you edit the video to get the one employee’s face out of there. There could be a very legitimate reason they don’t want to be on camera.

The employee who didn't want to be shown, is, in fact, not shown. The employee you see had no objections.... :)
@@silverandsolo great! I’m super cautious about that as I have a friend that had to flee an abusive partner and we kept her location secret for her protection.
Really!!! You waited till you got home? You need lessons on treating yourself!
Ha!
