As someone from England who married a weegie it's actually really good to hear your point of view. Lived in Glasgow for 8 years now. Feel so calm and chilled here, Scotland and Glasgow gripped my soul. Lived all over the world, Glasgow is the first place that's felt like home. Due to the place and the people.
So glad tae hear at. A lot from down south really do hate us. We may be a rough bunch but we truly have big hearts. Much love from ur neighbour up north.
@Baked420. I live in Glasgow buddy. To be honest, it's only the cocky Londoners that go on about Scots, not that they've ever been. That and those same people can't take a joke! 😂
Hands down the best Glasgow VLOG I’ve seen in ages. You really get the city and how it makes you feel. I’m Scottish but don’t stay in Glasgow but it’s my favourite city and my favourite people. The city has a slogan “People Make Glasgow”…..and it’s bang on!! Well done.
I know exactly what you mean, I'm not Scottish but have been living/working in Glasgow for many years and loved every single minute of it! Glaswegians are just amazing!
I'm from Oban, which is 100 miles North West of Glasgow. We always come down to the city as much as we can. We love it. Just don't hit the pubs on match day. It's anything but calm then
Im from Edinburgh and I love Glasgow. Im working class and Edinburghs been shedding its working class charm for years but Glasgow still has it. Edinburgh is the poster child but Glasgow is very much the beating heart of Scotland.
@@sandersson2813There’s definitely quite a bit of gentrification going on, and concerns that it’ll continue. A few people have told me that they’re concerned the new tram tracks being built through Leith will speed that up quite a bit.
@@naedanger123 Have you been to Princes Street lately? Gentrified it is not. More homeless than open shops. Gentrification wouldn't exclude the working class anyway
I absolutely love seeing my home town through the eyes of a new visitor. It's all too easy to shut Glasgow down with the misconceptions of times past and I'm glad these are now actually a thing of the past. Yes, behind the scenes there are the rough area's etc but every city has this. Glasgow is a great city, full of vibrant people, amazing architecture, great food and lots to do. You can jam pack your itinerary or relax and meander and you'll love it regardless. Great video!! Really enjoyed it. Cheers
I'm from Singapore and Glasgow is my 2nd home and travel there every year since my partner lives there and my brother-in-law is from there too. Glasgow may not be as magical as Edinburgh but It is a beautiful city and so much potential. One of my absolute favourite things there are the wall murals... so beautiful.
Hi Phoebe, by sheer chance I'm the 1000th person to like this vlog. I was born in Glasgow in 1952 then moved to London in 1954. Thirty years later, in 1984, I brought my wife and two kids home. Not to Glasgow but to Dunblane. Forty years on, I'm a widower of 32 years but have a daughter and two granddaughters in London, and a son and latest granddaughter (2 months) in Auckland New Zealand. People often associate Glasgow with negative energy because of its not too distant past. My experience of the city and its people is the same as yours. As soon as step off the platform at Queen Street and into George Square I get a buzz. It's a physical thing and very hard to describe. The Uni, Ashton Lane, Botanic Gardens, Merchant City, and Cathedral all seem to either calm or energise. Sometimes both. I shed a tear watching your Edinburgh episode as you explained about your late gramps. I'm sure part of the energy you felt is part of him. Hope Inverness is good for you and thank you for a wonderful channel. I'm subscribing now. X
@m1klgordon your message (even if it wasn't meant for me) touched me. My dad (Papa) was born in 1954, last month he sadly moved on to his eternal rest. My mum is now a widow 😢 Pa would love Glasgow, he didn't get a chance to come visit, cancer made it difficult for him to leave home. In fact, he would love Scotland, the people, history and natural beauty is glorious there! My partner and I often come back for a visit, this time with Pa in spirit. Wishing you and yours well and thriving!
Love this vlog and your experience of Glasgow! I’m an Aussie who’s been in love with Glasgow for the last 8 years since I moved! There’s something about this place that makes you feel like you’ve been welcomed home 🤩
I come from Glasgow and the people here tend to have humour that revolves around self-deprecation. It's easy for a lot of Glaswegians to not recommend their city or say bad stuff about it, purely because it's so common to do so. I am sure the guy loves Glasgow really, but doesn't really think anyone not born here would. But of course, that's wrong. I'm glad you enjoyed yourself, it really is a one of a kind city.
I’m completely blown away by the thought this city must have been absolutely fantastic in the Victorian era and we can still enjoy its enchanting sights today
---great video here: as an American who is proud of my Scottish heritage- i had the chance to visit Ediburgh 20+ years ago ..still have not been to Glasgow but certainly a 'bucket list thing- Kelvingrove looks so cool ...and all the rest - quite underrated i would say....
I’m from Glasgow and it’s great to see someone like yourself appreciate it. It’s had a few problems in the last 20 years and lost some iconic places like the art school due to fires. Glasgow was so absolutely incredible years ago and although it still is I think many people miss the very special vibe it had back in the day. We were very spoiled and by comparison maybe don’t appreciate that it’s still got so much to offer even still. Great video! 👍
Yes fellow weegie and it has changed a lot over the years it’s really not a great as it once was but as you say plenty of wee gems still and it’s true people do make Glasgow 💜
So glad we found your channel❤ My wife and live in Ontario Canada, we were in Scotland last summer to visit my family and now(due to insanely high housing prices here) have decided to "give it a go" and move back home(Im born in Falkirk).Currently selling everything off here and we are flying out in March to begin our adventure abroad❤❤❤
Eh, Scotland is expensive. One of the most expensive countries to live in the world. Saying that you mention Falkirk and I think they are paying people to live there! Full steam ahead!
@@stubectabsolute rubbish, Glasgow is one of the cheapest cities to live in. A one bedroom condo in Toronto will cost at least £500k. My cousin in Toronto’s son is in Glasgow because he can’t afford to buy a small 1 bedroom apartment in Toronto but can afford a lovely sandstone bungalow in Glasgow. Have a look at prices elsewhere and you’ll see how cheap it is to live in Glasgow.
Don’t visit Glasgow, said no true Glaswegian ever! The guy was clearly what we call, a chancer! As an exiled Glaswegian, I love going back to my home city. The warmth and friendliness, shopping, parks, museums and cuisine, Glasgow is world class! Glad you enjoyed the ‘dear green place’.
ohhhh shut it ! I can already tell you have a nasal accent with yer pish patter .... she is doin ma nut in as are you !I am on Team Random Glasgow Guy that told her not to bother .... bet she was not down the Trongate, The Gallowgate, Easterhouse, Possil, Drumchapel etc just sipping coffee in a stupid Hub Hotel .... wish it had rained when she visited to give her the REAL Glasgow experience!
I think a lot of us are fed up and saddened by the state of the place in the last few years. The city centre is a disgrace. It feels like it's in decline. I used to tell people all the time to come here and visit. I don't bother any more.
Glasgow is extremely underrated in my opinion ❤🏴❤yes it’s a different vibe to Edinburgh for sure but the culture and the people are what makes it special for me :)
@@motr1912I’ve been fortunate that my brother lives in Edinburgh so accommodation for me hasn’t been an issue- totally agree though particularly during Fringe it’s so expensive!!
I disagree. I lived there for a while and in my opinion it's probably one of the worst places I've ever lived. Massively overrated, massively deprived, awful weather, poverty stricken population, dirty and ugly and very badly run down. Just another city in a sea of UK Turdtowns.
So nice to see someone really soak in Glasgow vibes and appreciate its beauty! It certainly does bring a sense of peace and ease. Thank you for your fabulous vlog of my wonderful city 🏴
Before your Ireland vlog, I was literally planning to go to Ireland, Glasgow and Edinburgh for my birthday trip next year. And here I am, watching your videos, in that order!!! ❤
Glasgow seemingly has a cool and chill kind of vibe…which I love! I would definitely visit for sure! Thanks for taking us around and showing us the beauty of the city.❤
Im glad u had such a good time in Glasgow I live 15 minutes from the city centre & I love it ppl underestimate Glasgow a lot & there’s very few ppl iv met or seen like urself who says they didn’t like their visit it’s such a friendly place friendly ppl & great places to visit ❤
Coming from outside of Scotland, people don’t realize how hectic the rest of the world is. Not that Scottish people don’t know how to knuckle down- but that’s not all they know how to do. Glasgow is a vibe. Scotland is a vibe.
@@markfojas689 no it isn't, it's just the same as every other country. It has good bits, it has bad bits. It's no better than dozens of other countries. It's like saying sandwiches are a vibe. It's a completely meaningless statement.
@@sandersson2813 Can both our subjective realities exist in the same spaces? And based on my life of well over half a century and having experiences living in vastly different parts of the world and very different cultures in rural, urban, suburban settings- when I say it’s a vibe I don’t think you know what I uniquely know. When I say it’s a vibe Glasgow resonates with ME. I like the overall city and the different people. I like it better than say, San Francisco or San Jose. Maybe you’re so close to it that you don’t know what you have (if you are Glaswegian- which you don’t seem to be). Okay. You win. It’s not a vibe. Sandwiches are not a vibe.
@@markfojas689 Of course, bit it's probably best not to describe Scotland as something it isn't. It isn't a vibe, at least no more than any other country is a vibe. There is nothing especially different or unique about Scotland. It's just a country. I'm certainly NOT a Glaswegian, bit saying something is a "vibe" is frankly meaningless. It has no explanatory function to use it like that.
Okay. I disagree. I live in Scotland, in a neighboring town of Glasgow and I disagree. Have done- for years. My opinion. Sorry, Phoebe, what you expressed in your video it really touched me.
@@markfojas689no you don’t need to apologise. What you said is absolutely correct. The person replying is just being argumentative for the sake of it. They don’t agree that “it’s a vibe” is a relatable statement. Sanderson is a English/east of Scotland name so kinda explains it
To paraphrase our national bard, it is a gift to see ourselves as others see us. Really glad you visited Glasgow, even happier than you showcased it so well. Also nice to see some of my old haunts in the West End. Haste ye back.
I’m a long time traveler, and a new sub to your amazing channel. Well done! A few years ago, I rendezvoused with my daughter (she was living in Madrid) and we spent a week-long holiday in Glasgow and Edinburgh. Being in Glasgow was emotional for me, and it simply choked me up. My grandparents were from Glasgow and we visited their old neighborhood, and the family plot in Cathcart Cemetery where my 2x Great grandparents rest. I cannot wait to return to Glasgow and Scotland for a longer spell. The Scots we met and talked with were a treasure. Slàinte Mhath! Happy travels!
Glasgow is class. That guy is full of mince. Either that or he was being sarcastic cos most Glaswegians are proud of their city. I’m from Glasgow and always recommend people stop in on their inevitable route to Edinburgh. It’s so close and just a completely different energy. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
I'm doing the crying for you.... You are wonderful...the perfect person - and soul - to make these videos of Scotland. Thank you for being you and doing what you do. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
i'm chuffed she enjoyed her visit, proud to be scottish even tho we're pish at footy. the toon is a unique city, wan nite me n mates went clubbing, n saw 2 rockets dressed as batman n robin fightin wae the polis oan sauchiehall, wisnae even close tae halloween.
Most people don't visit the most interesting places in their home towns, until they are gone a long time. It took me over sixty years to go the Cathedral and surrounding areas, which I loved. It's a great place for visitors.
Fantastic video, lass. Honestly, sometimes it takes someone coming in from the outside for us to realise how blessed we are to have a city like this. Haste ye back!
@@travelforphoebe Of course! I'll admit to hating on my city too on occasion. It can have its moments, especially for residents and people who grew up here (as I'm sure is true for any city), so I'm sorry that a comment like that stuck with you so much. I'm genuinely pleased you had a nice time, and you're of course welcome back any time. 😊
I've said it before and I will say this again: Love how much you appreciate each trip / each place you travel to. You get emotional and it's a lovely thing to see! Best regards from Chile (Santiago is waiting for you, btw!) 😅❤
Is that the little thing that's like... a marshmallowy thingy? haha sorry I don't know how to describe it! I kept seeing them everywhere so tried one and LOVED it. The perfect sweet treat with a cup of tea! Thanks for watching :)
So cool and laidback vibe in your vlog.Glasgow is soo different from Dublin.You're into art and museums,that's good.I really liked this vlog! So calm and peaceful.Thanks Phoebe!
Edinburgh is the glamourous sister that everyone thinks is stunning and automatically drawn to their obvious beauty. Glasgow is the quieter less glam sister that once you get to know her, she'll give the best hugs, you'll have the best laugh with and want to get to know better.
Hi From Scotland. Came across your channel. I was born in Glasgow and lived there for a very long time. Now out in the countryside in Scotland. Glasgow people are friendly, good sense of humour and very kind. We enjoy meeting people and I am glad you had a great experience here. It is a busy city but defo has a fibe. I love Edinburgh and Glasgow but Edinburgh is way more expensive. ❤
Such a great video! Thanks Pheobe! I grew up in and around Glasgow then moved to Sydney Australia. Watching this video has evoked those good time memories created back in such a great city Thank you
8:16 Just FYI, a 99 is something that traditional Scottish ice cream vans have sold for as long as I can remember. The ice cream vans that drive around the housing estates sold an ice cream cone that contained a Cadbury’s “Flake” and raspberry sauce. It was called a 99 because it cost 99p back in the day before everything was so expensive! Glad you enjoyed your trip here.
Another fine vlog Phoebe. Harriet and I enjoyed our time in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen and Inverness . Well worth visting. Harriet and I came away from Scotland with many friends we see to this day. Warm, Friendly and a Great Sense of Humor. Hope you enjoyed your time there. How was the weather when you were there? Sending you love❤ and affection from Harriet, Jim and Yuki Richmond, VA.
Ex Glasgow pat here. Fantastic video. Thank you sooooo much. I’ve been living near London for the last 40 years, but don’t miss Glasgow one bit. However, I have been, and will always will be, proud of my home city!
You were in my neighbourhood in the first 10 minutes of that video, the really trendy area of Glasgow. I have spent the last 20 years living in the west end and I do not get bored of it.
a 99 is the name of a classic ice cream cone sold by ice cream vans. normally a cone with vanilla ice cream, strawberry/raspberry sauce and a flake in it. a childhood favourite. next time you go to glasgow you should try the south side of the city!
What a spectacularly gorgeous place! I'm so glad you defied the advice to avoid Glasgow, and we got to see what a lovely place this is! I'm definitely going to plan a visit - I want to experience that vibe!
Next time you're in Glasgow I'll take you to the Britannia Panopticon Music Hall. The oldest surviving Music Hall in the World where Stan Laurel made his debut. I used to do the talks there and I'll give you a tour.
Thank you for a truly brilliant review of my city… I love it Every city has its challenges, it just seems that people like to talk the city down, like the guy you thankfully ignored, so that rep becomes an expectation… most unfairly. You did a great job showcasing the city with such genuine warmth and appreciation And you went to Sugo A Glasgow secret…. Thank you :)
e have a saying in Glasgow ,You can stand at a bus stop in Glasgow and make a friend for life ,you can stand at a bus stop in Edinburgh for life and never make a friend 😂
Love your video , I work in the University , when were you there , it looks really quiet before the students came back for term . Hope you had a fantastic time .
Just come back from Glasgow, it’s completely changed my opinion about the city.It’s so beautiful,people is so friendly,helpful kind.I stayed at Z hotel, the heart of the city.I felt very safe.There is so much still to explore about the city and off course highlands is something else ❤ xx Braw 😊
Hi again. You proved me wrong to an extent as well. I have been in Glasgow a few times, the last being a few months ago and it has never been my favourite place. I have missed out on a fair bit of what you have seen however. The Botanic Gardens looks amazing. I have had a number of odd experiences there too. What I do love about the place is The Barrowlands. It's an amazing concert venue - very authentic. I'm over again next year, so I may well book my flight over for a bit earlier to see some sights I have missed out on. I'm really looking forward to the Edinburgh video. For me it's one of the world's great cities.
Really?! Wow - I guess you've been seeing it from a different angle. I also got extremely lucky with some gorgeous weather. It didn't last all day but I was thankful for the warm sunshine in the morning :) Hope you can visit again and see more of Glasgow - I loved it!
Glasgow a far superior city to Edinburgh 😂more junkies and steamers on the royal mile than there is tourists Edinburgh us a dump and once you’ve seen the castle that’s everything covered to see 👌🏻🏴🏴
Interested to see because you're hitting the "expected" spots of the Highlands and Edinburgh next, but for me Glasgow is Scotland's hidden gem. It's a very down to earth and friendly city that embraces it's industrial past. The Riverside Museum is one of my favourites to visit (also free!) and house the museum of transport. Public transport is great too, lots of trains and one of the world's oldest subways that has barely changed since it was built. Also great for cycling, lots of paths and routes that take in the sights and spotting the many locations used in movies.
Hi Phoebe, I'm glad you enjoyed your visit to Glasgow. It is a city I'm fond of and oozes creativity and history. This summer it celebrates its 850 founding. Will you return back to Glasgow?
So happy to see you in Glasgow!! Im heading there next year. I have 2 nights there. I'm planning on visiting the Cathedral, University and Necropolis. Wish I had known about your hotel before I booked. Glasgow is my last stop before flying back to Australia. Hopefully I won't be too tired or home sick and I will still appreciate it. Hope you visit other areas too.
99’s. A very British ice cream phenomenon. Normally a scoop of ice cream on a cone, with the flake stuck on to the scoop. Glasgow, like every big city, has its own problems, but as your video shows, it also has a lot of positivity.
The cone stays on the Duke of Wellingtons head because you'd be mad not to have a hat in the rain and people get hurt replacing it.the freeze around the plinth is worth a close look.
Hey! Loved your video! Glasgow is my home city and I love it. That guy you met is almost certainly from Edinburgh! 🤣 Edinburgh is a beautiful city and I'm sure you will enjoy it there, but Glasgow is definitely the friendly city. As you said it's a great place to visit on a wet day (which we get plenty of 😉) as many great (free) places of interest to visit indoors. You went to some of my favourite places. I love the museum and art galleries, the botanic gardens, Ashton lane, ... Hope you really enjoy the remainder of your time in Scotland. 😊😊
So for a cool booze or not day out I would suggest for lunch or cocktails at start of night out WALKABOUT or SLUG AND LETTUCE .. for something fun to do you can go axe throwing at HATCHET HARRYS .. don’t have to many cocktails before the axe throwing though .. we have escape rooms also a good laugh and honestly to many great bars to mention . You could walk about all night finding really good ones.. we have a couple of comedy clubs if your looking for a laugh and we have several brilliant concert venues including The 02 suchihall street and the O2 academy other side of town. Also the garage a smaller venue but some really good bands .. I think you deserve a week in Glasgow to really see just a bit of it 💚
I've been in Campbeltown since lock-down and you've done more exploring of my nearest city than I have! Thanks for showing it off in such a refreshing positive way! Now I'll know where to check out.
Since lockdown? Did you go insane before, during or after 😂 Just jesting with you. I spent a summer working up the road in carradale, it was interesting.
@@BrianMac2601 Carradale's lovely. I bought a block of flats in Campbeltown in auction! It looked a good deal on paper..............Got trapped here surviving covid costs were meant for renovation. It's pretty ok unless someone takes a disliking to you then it's unpleasant and way too far away from the authorities. Yeah I never thought I'd be sayin that. One day I hope to join my half sisters south of Perth Australia, nice and warm and quiet, get a hobby..
@lkn4jolly it was nice, I liked the golf course and the views on the doorstep, nothing else to do but put wages back into the till drinking with the locals lol. Aye covid fkd everyone over but you've got goals mate.
Great video Phoebe, as a Scot myself I have a funny feeling his comment was "tongue in cheek", pretty much forcing you to go and check it out for yourself and it worked as you have just posted a video that "Visit Scotland" would have paid a fortune to make...lol
Oh and Phoebe with regards the traffic cone on top of the head of the Duke of Wellington which you loved you are correct the local council and local police went to great efforts to stop it happening but no sooner had they removed one another was in its place straight away and so eventually they just gave up and now it is agreed that it will be there permanently.
Amazing thing showing the rest of the world Scotland and that there is more to the U.K than just London! If you get a chance, head down to Newcastle (my home town), promise you'll enjoy it as much as Glasgow and Eburgh!!! 😊
Hiya! Universities in the United Kingdom are from a different level. They’re so gorgeous, the building, the groundings, the parks, I would have loved studying in the UK. The way you feel at ease in Glasgow is how I feel when I go to London every year. And I felt so at ease in Australia as well. It’s a whole different vibe compared to my home in The Netherlands. That cone on the statue cranked me up 😂. Let your feelings go, don’t hold it in, we’re all human and we will understand. Your hotel looks perfect and seems to be made for solo travelers. And if you’re in the UK you must have Cadbury ❤. Thanks for sharing Glasgow and I’ll see you in Edinburgh 🤙
a Glaswegian that tells someone not to go to Glasgow is not a true Glaswegian, we have an incredible city and a lot to be proud of and show off. I love showing friends and family around Glasgow and they always come back time and time again , we have everything ❤🏴
So happy you enjoyed my city. There’s a hundred other things you could also have done and the nightlife is amazing. Come back anytime . Ps the 99 in the ice cream is the flake 😂
@ wow you got back quick I’m glad to hear your coming back and I’ll give you lots of recommendations. What you looking for next time you e done the chilled open air gallery vibe which i thank you for you showed it up perfectly for that. What other stuff do you get up to I’ve just subscribed as I came across you quite by accident tbh and I’ve still to watch more of you in other places . I’m sure the rest of the ( weegies) as Glaswegians are sometimes called will also help out. It’s 2.07 am right now though and I was just going to sleep 😂😂
Great blog Phoebe. But you should have visited the university cafe. The oldest ice cream cafe and chippy in Glasgow run by the same family for decades. You definitely missed out on that one
Phoebe thanks for showing us Glasgow. This is turning out to be my fav travel vlogging channel. Also Phoebe whenever you go to Australia next time I hope you would make videos there too. Would love to see your home country (I think you mentioned you are from Australia in your northern Ireland video. Sorry if I am wrong. Relatively new subscriber )
I live in Glasgow and take it a wee bit for granted. Glad you enjoyed yersel - it's a fantastic city with lots and lots to do. Unlike Edinburgh, it doesn't rip you off at every turn.

Hi Phoebe, by sheer chance I'm the 1000th person to like this vlog. I was born in Glasgow in 1952 then moved to London in 1954. Thirty years later, in 1984, I brought my wife and two kids home. Not to Glasgow but to Dunblane. Forty years on, I'm a widower of 32 years but have a daughter and two granddaughters in London, and a son and latest granddaughter (2 months) in Auckland New Zealand.
People often associate Glasgow with negative energy because of its not too distant past. My experience of the city and its people is the same as yours. As soon as step off the platform at Queen Street and into George Square I get a buzz. It's a physical thing and very hard to describe. The Uni, Ashton Lane, Botanic Gardens, Merchant City, and Cathedral all seem to either calm or energise. Sometimes both.
I shed a tear watching your Edinburgh episode as you explained about your late gramps. I'm sure part of the energy you felt is part of him. Hope Inverness is good for you and thank you for a wonderful channel. I'm subscribing now. X
@m1klgordon your message (even if it wasn't meant for me) touched me. My dad (Papa) was born in 1954, last month he sadly moved on to his eternal rest. My mum is now a widow 😢
Pa would love Glasgow, he didn't get a chance to come visit, cancer made it difficult for him to leave home. In fact, he would love Scotland, the people, history and natural beauty is glorious there! My partner and I often come back for a visit, this time with Pa in spirit.

i made a 5 weeks trip in Scotland last year. My number 1 is Glasgow. I lovedddd it sooo muchh!!! I completly understand your feeling
That makes me so happy :) It really is amazing huh! So glad I visited and got to experience it. Would love to go back and stay for longer next time.

Yes fellow weegie and it has changed a lot over the years it’s really not a great as it once was but as you say plenty of wee gems still and it’s true people do make Glasgow 💜
Totally. The 90s especially were incredible years to cut your teeth in Glasgow.
Thanks for watching! :) I had a great visit!
So glad we found your channel❤
My wife and live in Ontario Canada, we were in Scotland last summer to visit my family and now(due to insanely high housing prices here) have decided to "give it a go" and move back home(Im born in Falkirk).Currently selling everything off here and we are flying out in March to begin our adventure abroad❤❤❤
Eh, Scotland is expensive. One of the most expensive countries to live in the world. Saying that you mention Falkirk and I think they are paying people to live there! Full steam ahead!
Welcome home. Rab
@@stubectabsolute rubbish, Glasgow is one of the cheapest cities to live in. A one bedroom condo in Toronto will cost at least £500k. My cousin in Toronto’s son is in Glasgow because he can’t afford to buy a small 1 bedroom apartment in Toronto but can afford a lovely sandstone bungalow in Glasgow. Have a look at prices elsewhere and you’ll see how cheap it is to live in Glasgow.
@@stubectyou’re talking nonsense. I live in Glasgow and it’s extremely well priced.
@@margaretwalker7600 property is maybe cheaper, that’s it!
Don’t visit Glasgow, said no true Glaswegian ever! The guy was clearly what we call, a chancer! As an exiled Glaswegian, I love going back to my home city. The warmth and friendliness, shopping, parks, museums and cuisine, Glasgow is world class! Glad you enjoyed the ‘dear green place’.
An exiled wegie?!
Wha ya mean?
You left as a wean?
ohhhh shut it ! I can already tell you have a nasal accent with yer pish patter .... she is doin ma nut in as are you !I am on Team Random Glasgow Guy that told her not to bother .... bet she was not down the Trongate, The Gallowgate, Easterhouse, Possil, Drumchapel etc just sipping coffee in a stupid Hub Hotel .... wish it had rained when she visited to give her the REAL Glasgow experience!
I think a lot of us are fed up and saddened by the state of the place in the last few years. The city centre is a disgrace. It feels like it's in decline. I used to tell people all the time to come here and visit. I don't bother any more.
Glasgow is extremely underrated in my opinion ❤🏴❤yes it’s a different vibe to Edinburgh for sure but the culture and the people are what makes it special for me :)
Glasgow is great and unlike Edinburgh, very reasonably priced for many things but especially accommodation.
@@motr1912I’ve been fortunate that my brother lives in Edinburgh so accommodation for me hasn’t been an issue- totally agree though particularly during Fringe it’s so expensive!!
Thanks for watching :) Have a great day!
Its best city end of👌💨💨😈😁👍🎉🎉🤣🤣
I disagree. I lived there for a while and in my opinion it's probably one of the worst places I've ever lived.
Massively overrated, massively deprived, awful weather, poverty stricken population, dirty and ugly and very badly run down.
Just another city in a sea of UK Turdtowns.
So nice to see someone really soak in Glasgow vibes and appreciate its beauty! It certainly does bring a sense of peace and ease. Thank you for your fabulous vlog of my wonderful city 🏴
Before your Ireland vlog, I was literally planning to go to Ireland, Glasgow and Edinburgh for my birthday trip next year. And here I am, watching your videos, in that order!!! ❤
hahaha I could sense it :) great timing!
Glasgow seemingly has a cool and chill kind of vibe…which I love! I would definitely visit for sure! Thanks for taking us around and showing us the beauty of the city.❤
It really is such a relaxed, easy-going place. I felt so calm and at peace in Glasgow! P xx
Great video and I'm delighted that you loved your visit. There's so much more to see and do as well.
Glad you enjoyed it! ☺️🙏🏼
Im glad u had such a good time in Glasgow I live 15 minutes from the city centre & I love it ppl underestimate Glasgow a lot & there’s very few ppl iv met or seen like urself who says they didn’t like their visit it’s such a friendly place friendly ppl & great places to visit ❤
Coming from outside of Scotland, people don’t realize how hectic the rest of the world is. Not that Scottish people don’t know how to knuckle down- but that’s not all they know how to do. Glasgow is a vibe. Scotland is a vibe.
@@markfojas689 no it isn't, it's just the same as every other country.
It has good bits, it has bad bits. It's no better than dozens of other countries.
It's like saying sandwiches are a vibe. It's a completely meaningless statement.
@@sandersson2813 Can both our subjective realities exist in the same spaces? And based on my life of well over half a century and having experiences living in vastly different parts of the world and very different cultures in rural, urban, suburban settings- when I say it’s a vibe I don’t think you know what I uniquely know. When I say it’s a vibe Glasgow resonates with ME. I like the overall city and the different people. I like it better than say, San Francisco or San Jose. Maybe you’re so close to it that you don’t know what you have (if you are Glaswegian- which you don’t seem to be). Okay. You win. It’s not a vibe. Sandwiches are not a vibe.
@@markfojas689 Of course, bit it's probably best not to describe Scotland as something it isn't. It isn't a vibe, at least no more than any other country is a vibe. There is nothing especially different or unique about Scotland. It's just a country.
I'm certainly NOT a Glaswegian, bit saying something is a "vibe" is frankly meaningless. It has no explanatory function to use it like that.
Okay. I disagree. I live in Scotland, in a neighboring town of Glasgow and I disagree. Have done- for years. My opinion. Sorry, Phoebe, what you expressed in your video it really touched me.
@@markfojas689no you don’t need to apologise. What you said is absolutely correct. The person replying is just being argumentative for the sake of it. They don’t agree that “it’s a vibe” is a relatable statement.
Sanderson is a English/east of Scotland name so kinda explains it
What a wonderful video. Great job, Phoebe. Keep them coming.
Thanks for watching :) Have a great day!
You get a 99 from the ice cream van it’s a cone ice cream and a flake - raspberry sauce optional lol glad you enjoyed
Junk
To paraphrase our national bard, it is a gift to see ourselves as others see us. Really glad you visited Glasgow, even happier than you showcased it so well. Also nice to see some of my old haunts in the West End. Haste ye back.
I’m a long time traveler, and a new sub to your amazing channel. Well done! A few years ago, I rendezvoused with my daughter (she was living in Madrid) and we spent a week-long holiday in Glasgow and Edinburgh. Being in Glasgow was emotional for me, and it simply choked me up. My grandparents were from Glasgow and we visited their old neighborhood, and the family plot in Cathcart Cemetery where my 2x Great grandparents rest. I cannot wait to return to Glasgow and Scotland for a longer spell. The Scots we met and talked with were a treasure. Slàinte Mhath! Happy travels!
I love hearing these stories about the personal connection people have with Scotland! Thank you so much for sharing 🥹🙏🏼
Glasgow is class. That guy is full of mince. Either that or he was being sarcastic cos most Glaswegians are proud of their city. I’m from Glasgow and always recommend people stop in on their inevitable route to Edinburgh. It’s so close and just a completely different energy. I’m glad you enjoyed it!
You do get some people from Glasgow who really don't appreciate the vibe in their own City.
I'm doing the crying for you....
You are wonderful...the perfect person - and soul - to make these videos of Scotland. Thank you for being you and doing what you do. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
you're so kind - thank you for the lovely words
i'm chuffed she enjoyed her visit, proud to be scottish even tho we're pish at footy. the toon is a unique city, wan nite me n mates went clubbing, n saw 2 rockets dressed as batman n robin fightin wae the polis oan sauchiehall, wisnae even close tae halloween.
Most people don't visit the most interesting places in their home towns, until they are gone a long time. It took me over sixty years to go the Cathedral and surrounding areas, which I loved. It's a great place for visitors.
Glasgow made you cry girl it will forever be in your heart glad to have you come back sone ❤❤
Thank you 🥰🙌🏻
Fantastic video, lass. Honestly, sometimes it takes someone coming in from the outside for us to realise how blessed we are to have a city like this.
Haste ye back!
What a lovely comment 🥰🙌🏻🏴 thank you so so much!
@@travelforphoebe Of course! I'll admit to hating on my city too on occasion. It can have its moments, especially for residents and people who grew up here (as I'm sure is true for any city), so I'm sorry that a comment like that stuck with you so much.
I'm genuinely pleased you had a nice time, and you're of course welcome back any time. 😊
wow.nice video.....i just booked a flight ticket because of your video....i will go Glasgow in February...cant wait...looks amazing...thanks
I've said it before and I will say this again: Love how much you appreciate each trip / each place you travel to. You get emotional and it's a lovely thing to see! Best regards from Chile (Santiago is waiting for you, btw!) 😅❤
Absolutely loved this! Brilliant! Glasgow is a vibrant friendly city which came across in this video! 👏
I went to the University of Glasgow (my home town) for 4 years. I never appreciated how stunning the place is
Wow - what a beautiful place to study!
Tunnocks Tea Cakes are a must btw! Glad you loved the vibes 💖
Is that the little thing that's like... a marshmallowy thingy? haha sorry I don't know how to describe it! I kept seeing them everywhere so tried one and LOVED it. The perfect sweet treat with a cup of tea! Thanks for watching :)
Thats them 😂😂 loved this video ❤ come back soon, Glasgow is the best city ever and i dont live there 😂 people make glasgow ❤ 🏴@travelforphoebe
I’ve said the same thing in the past . I suppose you just get jaded with your home town. Thanks for proving me wrong.
What a lovely vlog of Glesca' ❤ And it didn't rain. Come visit the Briggait next time too!😊
So cool and laidback vibe in your vlog.Glasgow is soo different from Dublin.You're into art and museums,that's good.I really liked this vlog! So calm and peaceful.Thanks Phoebe!
Yes definitely a very chilled vibe for this one :) Loved it!
❤ most Australians can trace their roots back to the UK myself included,Scotland particularly I loved it also
Thanks for watching :) Have a great day!
Yeah. ACDC main guys are from Glasgow.
Edinburgh is the glamourous sister that everyone thinks is stunning and automatically drawn to their obvious beauty. Glasgow is the quieter less glam sister that once you get to know her, she'll give the best hugs, you'll have the best laugh with and want to get to know better.
Thanks for watching :) I absolutely loved Glasgow!
Aww that's such a great analogy! 😊
Glasgow is certainly not quieter in any shape or form are you mad ?
Glasgow is definitely NOT quieter than Edinburgh. Absolute opposite.
Wasn't glamorous on Tuesday when the riot police were deployed 😏
Hi From Scotland. Came across your channel. I was born in Glasgow and lived there for a very long time. Now out in the countryside in Scotland. Glasgow people are friendly, good sense of humour and very kind. We enjoy meeting people and I am glad you had a great experience here. It is a busy city but defo has a fibe. I love Edinburgh and Glasgow but Edinburgh is way more expensive. ❤
Thank you for visiting the lovely Glasgow! hope you come back soon
Keep shining that positivity. Love the vids. Cheers
Thank you so much :)
Such a great video! Thanks Pheobe! I grew up in and around Glasgow then moved to Sydney Australia. Watching this video has evoked those good time memories created back in such a great city
Thank you
The surrounding environment is truly amazing. I really enjoyed watching the video.❤👍
8:16 Just FYI, a 99 is something that traditional Scottish ice cream vans have sold for as long as I can remember. The ice cream vans that drive around the housing estates sold an ice cream cone that contained a Cadbury’s “Flake” and raspberry sauce. It was called a 99 because it cost 99p back in the day before everything was so expensive! Glad you enjoyed your trip here.
I live in Glasgow and used to regularly spend time in the west end....great video!
Thanks for watching :)
Another fine vlog Phoebe. Harriet and I enjoyed our time in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen and Inverness . Well worth visting. Harriet and I came away from Scotland with many friends we see to this day. Warm, Friendly and a Great Sense of Humor. Hope you enjoyed your time there. How was the weather when you were there? Sending you love❤ and affection from Harriet, Jim and Yuki Richmond, VA.
Thank you so much you guys! The weather was great :)
Ex Glasgow pat here. Fantastic video. Thank you sooooo much. I’ve been living near London for the last 40 years, but don’t miss Glasgow one bit. However, I have been, and will always will be, proud of my home city!
Thanks for watching :) I LOVED your home city!
Great vlog Pheobe, Glasgow looks amazing. Love the architecture 😍
Thanks for watching :) Have a great day!
You were in my neighbourhood in the first 10 minutes of that video, the really trendy area of Glasgow.
I have spent the last 20 years living in the west end and I do not get bored of it.
Oh wow that's so cool! what a beautiful area to live in :) I can see why you adore it.
The statue of the DoW with the cone on his head is a Glasgow icon 😀
a 99 is the name of a classic ice cream cone sold by ice cream vans. normally a cone with vanilla ice cream, strawberry/raspberry sauce and a flake in it. a childhood favourite. next time you go to glasgow you should try the south side of the city!
What a spectacularly gorgeous place! I'm so glad you defied the advice to avoid Glasgow, and we got to see what a lovely place this is! I'm definitely going to plan a visit - I want to experience that vibe!
Me too - I was really put off by the comments! So glad I visited anyway because I LOVED it :)
Next time you're in Glasgow I'll take you to the Britannia Panopticon Music Hall. The oldest surviving Music Hall in the World where Stan Laurel made his debut. I used to do the talks there and I'll give you a tour.
Thank you for a truly brilliant review of my city… I love it
Every city has its challenges, it just seems that people like to talk the city down, like the guy you thankfully ignored, so that rep becomes an expectation… most unfairly.
You did a great job showcasing the city with such genuine warmth and appreciation
And you went to Sugo
A Glasgow secret….
Thank you :)
Glasgow and her people are the heart and soul of Scotland, thoroughly enjoyed your film 👍✌️
😍😍😍
Haha glad you loved Glasgow, best city and the guy who said he was from Glasgow and said don’t come was definitely from Edinburgh, city rivalry game
Oh dear! 😂🙌🏻
Beat me to it 😂
e have a saying in Glasgow ,You can stand at a bus stop in Glasgow and make a friend for life ,you can stand at a bus stop in Edinburgh for life and never make a friend 😂
Thank you for your lovely vlog of our wonderful city
Hi Phoebe glad you enjoyed our city. We love it.
Love your video , I work in the University , when were you there , it looks really quiet before the students came back for term . Hope you had a fantastic time .
Just come back from Glasgow, it’s completely changed my opinion about the city.It’s so beautiful,people is so friendly,helpful kind.I stayed at Z hotel, the heart of the city.I felt very safe.There is so much still to explore about the city and off course highlands is something else ❤ xx Braw 😊
Glad you enjoyed yourself. Great vlog :)
As a Glaswegian don’t listen to people who talk down their own city. Fantastic city!!
Welcome to Glasow. Glad you enjoyed your visit. Great video - Looking forward to seeing more!
Thank you! 😃
Hi again. You proved me wrong to an extent as well. I have been in Glasgow a few times, the last being a few months ago and it has never been my favourite place. I have missed out on a fair bit of what you have seen however. The Botanic Gardens looks amazing. I have had a number of odd experiences there too. What I do love about the place is The Barrowlands. It's an amazing concert venue - very authentic. I'm over again next year, so I may well book my flight over for a bit earlier to see some sights I have missed out on. I'm really looking forward to the Edinburgh video. For me it's one of the world's great cities.
Really?! Wow - I guess you've been seeing it from a different angle. I also got extremely lucky with some gorgeous weather. It didn't last all day but I was thankful for the warm sunshine in the morning :) Hope you can visit again and see more of Glasgow - I loved it!
Glasgow a far superior city to Edinburgh 😂more junkies and steamers on the royal mile than there is tourists Edinburgh us a dump and once you’ve seen the castle that’s everything covered to see 👌🏻🏴🏴
Interested to see because you're hitting the "expected" spots of the Highlands and Edinburgh next, but for me Glasgow is Scotland's hidden gem. It's a very down to earth and friendly city that embraces it's industrial past. The Riverside Museum is one of my favourites to visit (also free!) and house the museum of transport. Public transport is great too, lots of trains and one of the world's oldest subways that has barely changed since it was built. Also great for cycling, lots of paths and routes that take in the sights and spotting the many locations used in movies.
Thanks for watching! :)
Hi Phoebe, I'm glad you enjoyed your visit to Glasgow. It is a city I'm fond of and oozes creativity and history. This summer it celebrates its 850 founding. Will you return back to Glasgow?
The video quality is next level love your vlogs
Thanks for watching :) Have a great day!
@@travelforphoebe when are you coming back to India 🇮🇳
When is the next travel vlog from India is coming??
Awesome!!!! Great video. It's my home and it has SOOOOOO much going for it. Solid!!!!!!!!
Makes me so happy to hear! 🥰🙏🏼
I'm from Aberdeen, and I love Glasgow. Just such a cool City!!
Totally agree!!
great video, glad you had a lovely time here :)
So happy to see you in Glasgow!! Im heading there next year. I have 2 nights there. I'm planning on visiting the Cathedral, University and Necropolis. Wish I had known about your hotel before I booked. Glasgow is my last stop before flying back to Australia. Hopefully I won't be too tired or home sick and I will still appreciate it. Hope you visit other areas too.
Oh amazing! You're going to have the best time :) I'm sure your hotel will be perfect!
In Scotland, when the ice cream van would come round, you would get a 99, scoop of vanilla ice cream in a cone, with raspberry sauce
Ahhhhhh!! Thank you sooo much! That makes a lotta sense ☺️🙏🏼
You got decent weather for your trip, which is a rarity here, even in summer.
I stay in Scotland not in Glasgow 30 miles away but it is such a special city with the most likeable people you can meet I love going to visit
99’s. A very British ice cream phenomenon. Normally a scoop of ice cream on a cone, with the flake stuck on to the scoop.
Glasgow, like every big city, has its own problems, but as your video shows, it also has a lot of positivity.
I am from Glasgow and its a wonderful city. I love it here.
The cone stays on the Duke of Wellingtons head because you'd be mad not to have a hat in the rain and people get hurt replacing it.the freeze around the plinth is worth a close look.
Hey! Loved your video! Glasgow is my home city and I love it. That guy you met is almost certainly from Edinburgh! 🤣 Edinburgh is a beautiful city and I'm sure you will enjoy it there, but Glasgow is definitely the friendly city. As you said it's a great place to visit on a wet day (which we get plenty of 😉) as many great (free) places of interest to visit indoors. You went to some of my favourite places. I love the museum and art galleries, the botanic gardens, Ashton lane, ...
Hope you really enjoy the remainder of your time in Scotland. 😊😊
Thanks for watching :)
I live across fr the botanic Gardens. You should have went for a walk along the kelvin River. Nice peaceful walk 👍
Great vlog of my hometown Phoebe! ❤
I'm so happy you liked it :)
So for a cool booze or not day out I would suggest for lunch or cocktails at start of night out WALKABOUT or SLUG AND LETTUCE .. for something fun to do you can go axe throwing at HATCHET HARRYS .. don’t have to many cocktails before the axe throwing though .. we have escape rooms also a good laugh and honestly to many great bars to mention . You could walk about all night finding really good ones.. we have a couple of comedy clubs if your looking for a laugh and we have several brilliant concert venues including The 02 suchihall street and the O2 academy other side of town. Also the garage a smaller venue but some really good bands .. I think you deserve a week in Glasgow to really see just a bit of it 💚
Thank you for enjoying our fair city!! 🫶🫶🫶
I've been in Campbeltown since lock-down and you've done more exploring of my nearest city than I have! Thanks for showing it off in such a refreshing positive way! Now I'll know where to check out.
Since lockdown? Did you go insane before, during or after 😂 Just jesting with you. I spent a summer working up the road in carradale, it was interesting.
Thanks for watching :) Have a great day!
@@BrianMac2601 Carradale's lovely. I bought a block of flats in Campbeltown in auction! It looked a good deal on paper..............Got trapped here surviving covid costs were meant for renovation. It's pretty ok unless someone takes a disliking to you then it's unpleasant and way too far away from the authorities. Yeah I never thought I'd be sayin that. One day I hope to join my half sisters south of Perth Australia, nice and warm and quiet, get a hobby..
@lkn4jolly it was nice, I liked the golf course and the views on the doorstep, nothing else to do but put wages back into the till drinking with the locals lol. Aye covid fkd everyone over but you've got goals mate.
I'm so pleased you enjoyed Glasgow University, it's one of my favourite places too.
Great video Phoebe, as a Scot myself I have a funny feeling his comment was "tongue in cheek", pretty much forcing you to go and check it out for yourself and it worked as you have just posted a video that "Visit Scotland" would have paid a fortune to make...lol
hahaha it worked alright :) Maybe he secretly works for the tourism board?!
Oh and Phoebe with regards the traffic cone on top of the head of the Duke of Wellington which you loved you are correct the local council and local police went to great efforts to stop it happening but no sooner had they removed one another was in its place straight away and so eventually they just gave up and now it is agreed that it will be there permanently.
Amazing thing showing the rest of the world Scotland and that there is more to the U.K than just London! If you get a chance, head down to Newcastle (my home town), promise you'll enjoy it as much as Glasgow and Eburgh!!! 😊
Thanks so much for watching :)
Provand’s Lordship built in 1471 the oldest house in Glasgow is in your video, just down from the Cathedral.
Hiya! Universities in the United Kingdom are from a different level. They’re so gorgeous, the building, the groundings, the parks, I would have loved studying in the UK. The way you feel at ease in Glasgow is how I feel when I go to London every year. And I felt so at ease in Australia as well. It’s a whole different vibe compared to my home in The Netherlands. That cone on the statue cranked me up 😂. Let your feelings go, don’t hold it in, we’re all human and we will understand. Your hotel looks perfect and seems to be made for solo travelers. And if you’re in the UK you must have Cadbury ❤. Thanks for sharing Glasgow and I’ll see you in Edinburgh 🤙
Aren't they gorgeous?! Like a fairtyle!
a Glaswegian that tells someone not to go to Glasgow is not a true Glaswegian, we have an incredible city and a lot to be proud of and show off. I love showing friends and family around Glasgow and they always come back time and time again , we have everything ❤🏴
Thanks
WOW! Thank you SO much :) So generous of you!
If Scotland and in particular Glasgow had hot reliable summers it would be a world leader in tourism ❤️🏴👏
So happy you enjoyed my city. There’s a hundred other things you could also have done and the nightlife is amazing. Come back anytime . Ps the 99 in the ice cream is the flake 😂
Please give me ALL your local recommendations :) I'd love to have them for my next visit!
@ wow you got back quick I’m glad to hear your coming back and I’ll give you lots of recommendations. What you looking for next time you e done the chilled open air gallery vibe which i thank you for you showed it up perfectly for that. What other stuff do you get up to I’ve just subscribed as I came across you quite by accident tbh and I’ve still to watch more of you in other places . I’m sure the rest of the ( weegies) as Glaswegians are sometimes called will also help out. It’s 2.07 am right now though and I was just going to sleep 😂😂
Great blog Phoebe. But you should have visited the university cafe. The oldest ice cream cafe and chippy in Glasgow run by the same family for decades. You definitely missed out on that one
Greatest City in the World, just saying from a Glaswegian 💙😎🇬🇧😊
Haha I LOVED it! 🥰
Phoebe thanks for showing us Glasgow. This is turning out to be my fav travel vlogging channel. Also Phoebe whenever you go to Australia next time I hope you would make videos there too. Would love to see your home country (I think you mentioned you are from Australia in your northern Ireland video. Sorry if I am wrong. Relatively new subscriber )
I live in Glasgow and take it a wee bit for granted. Glad you enjoyed yersel - it's a fantastic city with lots and lots to do. Unlike Edinburgh, it doesn't rip you off at every turn.
I loved it :)
Nothing says Glasgow more than the traffic cone on the Duke of Wellington. Great content about my home City, thanks.
