    Today we are stopping in Morgantown West Virginia, easily one of my favorite cities in the state. There is a lot here in the way of entertainment. Enjoy a show at one of the theaters, or grab a drink and dinner at one of the popular restaurants. Sit back, and enjoy a small tour with me.

    Thank you so much for making this video! I am a West Virginia native and it always means so much to me when anyone shines a positive light on this state 😊

      I hope that some people looking for a place to visit find the video. West Virginia is amazing. I know there is the song and everything, but its still a hidden gem. Im glad you enjoyed the video.

      I second that! Most of the time WV makes the news because of something bad happening. There is a lot of good in the natural resources and in her people.

    Loved your video! As for anyone trying to bash you for your pronunciations of things (because Americans are so well known for pronouncing names of other cultures correctly 🙄) they probably can only speak one language anyway. Keep up the good work and enjoy your travels!

    I grew up in Morgantown and it truly is a gem. I recognized almost every shot you captured, with the exception of prickett’s fort, that’s in fairmont and I’ve never been (honestly I don’t know anyone who has haha). Next time you pass through check out the evansdale area/suncrest and the beautiful cheat lake :)

    Getting caught up on your videos. I feel like they improved! I like the video layouts and cinematography. At about 7:18 it seemed the camera man was a bit out of breath based upon contrast of movements from rest of the video haha! Were you able to go into the fort? Last time I was there the inside was closed.

    • @exotictravelwithrain9504

      To you it may seem normal because you are from there. I am obviously not originally from the United States. To someone like myself, this is about as exotic as it gets. West Virginia to most of the world is unknown outside of John Denver's song. Enjoy a little free publicity, I am not monitored on UA-cam, and I don't think anyone is interested in paying money for me to film (though I wouldn't mind if they decided to lol)
