I've been watching your videos for over 2 years, now, and I can honestly say you are the most decent, respectful and humble American I have encountered. Don't ever change, dude. Enjoy the rest of your trip.
All the nicest Yanks are like him.
Many of those i watch are very similar :)
You really just have to appreciate how much he has matured over the years from early Vlogs to now.
I quite agree with you. He always comes across as very humble and also quite intelligent. I love his vlogs and videos
@@user-gy1im9mc9u well, it is age appropriate, he has grown up. v well too
There's something about Scotland. Living on a tiny island in the Mediterranean Sea, nothing could be further from home than Scotland in ambience and weather, and yet when I visited, I felt right at home, as if I belonged there. A second and third visit did nothing to dispel that feeling. Truly magical. Glen Coe is something else. We kept stopping our rental car to soak it all in. The Scottish have every right to be proud of their country. It's amazing.
Oddly enough I felt the same about a tiny island in the Mediterranean. Can we swap places please? 😏
DON'T MENTION GLENCOE! Cruel was the snow...... and murdered the house o' Macdonad!
Cold tho
I'm delighted that you loved our wee country. And appreciate the outstanding beauty that we have on our doorstep. I also enjoy spending time in the Mediterranean escaping the Scottish climate ✌️❤️
By the time your trip ends you'll realise why the British talk about their weather A LOT.😀😃
😂😂😂so true.I live in Manchester,we are having Manchester summer weather,wet and cool
@@brianbrotherston5940 The weather up here is unpredicatable, but Scotland's still pretty awesome in rough weather. If you want non-stop sunshine, you go somewhere else.
@@brianbrotherston5940 31c is a good hot day in the UK. Did you convert to Fahrenheit for our US friends?
@@brianbrotherston5940 Thats a stupid remark , he comes across as a very nice young man .
Scotland looks beautiful! Your dad and I can’t wait to visit. We take umbrage to your depiction of the US. We have screwed up a lot but also fine done good too. No country is innocent and you have to keep in mind that there is history and the present and the future. Love the present you are experiencing in Scotland and the UK. We all have a lot to learn about our past to be better now and in the future, which is you. Love your introspection and ability to stand corrected and to learn to love a county by experiencing they country. Couldn’t be prouder of our boy. ❤mom and dad
Don't be too tough on him. US tourists can normally be spotted from a mile off and often make spectacles of themselves.
Hello the Lady Erica. The lad Joel is doing a fine job of exploring and presenting his impressions of the UK. My connection was a Scots father so I know the area Joel's been through in this video. He's right that the camera can't catch the magic of being stood in a place that's wrapped in history and events, feeling the breeze on your face hearing the sounds of water tumbling down a hillside or as waves lapping on a shore.
As Joel remarked you can watch any number of videos but nothing compares to being stood in the place.
You may need an interpreter for when he gets back home if the Scottish accent roots itself any deeper ( aye )
Joel, listen to your mother she is right of course. Your son is very exceptional young man and I credit you're parenting for setting down right path. As a fellow American I just really appreciate his sense of adventure, curiosity, and drive to experience new things.
I would be very proud to have a wonderful son like Joel as he is a credit to you and your husband. You have raised a good hearted boy who is respected by thousands of his UA-cam family members and Ben is a great younger man who has a great personality and mischievous aura am grateful to Joel as his video's helped me thru a difficult time in my life
Transmt concert is on in Glasgow Green this weekend so you will most likely meet a lot of people your age from all over Scotland already today while walking the dog i met people from the east coast and further and they where all well spoken and polite with a good amount of alcohol in them lol hope you get a chance to talk to them
Glad you’re seeing the real Scotland pal. I’m from a place called Greenock, 30 minutes west of Glasgow on the west coast. I’m irish but have lived in Scotland for nearly 30 years. I have travelled the world but still think that on a nice day Scotland is the worlds most beautiful country. Enjoy the rest of your trip my friend.
I went to the Highlands a couple of years ago, travelled the world and for me the most beautiful place on earth, I’m from England and told a Welsh friend as I also love wales, he summed it up and said Scotland is like Wales but on Steroids.😊
Edinburgh is to Scotland what London is to England, the main tourist place that everyone goes to.
Oh you beat me to it ;)
Lol, I lived there for five years (been in Glasgow now for ten) and I still visit friends regularly. I find people overstate this, I feel very fond of the place.
Think Glasgow is better Edinburgh is just a tourist trap
@@myneighbourjohnturturroI've lived in Edinburgh for 12 and am from London. If you just stay off the mile and maybe Princes street it is a totally chill and enjoyable city with great places in and around. Just like London the locals just skip the tourist zone.
Going back to uni this year at Strathclyde so looking forward to a much better Glasgow knowledge. Always enjoy going to gigs and things there.
The men are tough and some women in Scotland but the women are mostly very polite, kind, helpful and hospitable. I like the Scots. I think it's great that they are proud and the way they are. Love it there. From a Londener. 👍
We’re not proud enough to vote for Independence unfortunately.
@@jmcc2275 That's because we are more proud of being in the UK. Remember, we won. Our Scottish King James VI took over the English throne.
@@Thurgosh_OGThe English queen killed our Queen Mary. She was captured because she trusted her “sister queen”. Elizabeth signed her death warrant.
Remember how close the voting was. Too many people fell for the lies of the English government.
I remember the first time I went to Scotland. I'd begun to think I was familiar with many countryside scenes and it was getting harder to be stunned by it. And then the Scottish Highlands shattered all of that notion and absolutely knocked my socks off! I know what you mean Joel when you say sometimes it's hard to believe it's really of this earth. Loved your video bro - great to see your face light up at being surrounded by such magical beauty.
@gdok6088 I totally agree! You’re driving along, turn a bend and BOOM!! Majestic mountains, a landscape that is so completely unique and so totally ‘Welcome Home’ vibes. My car stopped in the middle of the road and I just sat there in shocked amazement. I totally love the Highlands.
People like you should make Americans feel proud, Joel. But I love that you feel so comfortable here.
It's great seeing you in Scotland enjoying yourself this time.
Scotland is indeed beautiful. An amazing part of the world.
This is your best vlog pal. Thank God you're not just traipsing around city centres again. Well done!
As an Englishman who's been all over Scotland, it's a stunningly beautiful country. I hope they stay part of the UK, but if they don't that's their prerogative and good luck to them ✌️
They will, the independence movement is just a stunt by a certain political party to try and make them relevant, it’s paper thin
As a half-English, half-Scottish person (though currently living in Australia), I agree. It would be so heart-breaking to lose Scotland as part of our community. The idea of needing a passport to go from England to Scotland, where I've travelled before without anything but a 'Scotland' sign to mark the border just feels weird and wrong. However, like you, I understand if people are genuinely feeling they get a raw deal from the Union, and believe they'd do better on their own, and are unable to negotiate a better situation, then independence must be the way to go.
@@papercup2517I think they should go independent cos Westminster shouldn’t be deciding for them. But it won’t happen any time soon cos Westminster won’t allow them to hold a referendum so they are completely stuck when it comes to achieving independence. Nicola Sturgeon has made Getting another referendum her life’s purpose, and even she has failed to defeat Westminster over it
@@cultfiction3865y shouldn't Westminster be deciding for them? Why are they special? The rest of the UK has to have Westminster deciding for them. They do very bloody well out of Westminster, to the detriment of a lot of England tbh.
As a Scotsman who as been to several places in England, I would like to say I'm so glad I live in Scotland, and As a Scotsman who voted to Remain in Europe, like the majority of Scots I would really like to thank the English for voting us out and giving us 13 years of Tory rule, yeah thanks again.
Of course you’re famous! We all know you 😁you’re doing such an amazing job and showing us Brits some fantastic places that we take for granted. Scotland is stunning and the people are just wonderful and real. Love it all, keep doing what you’re doing with passion. ❤
Aye Joel. A wee trip up the Highlands. Love that seafood stall in Oban. Was there very recently although the weather was better but at least you are getting to experience some good ‘Ole Scottish weather (dreich is the Scottish word for it 😂). Glad you got to enjoy some of the wonderful scenery of our country 🏴👍✌️
The joy in your face says it all: you love Scotland! My Viking ancestors sailed from Iceland to Scotland and have lived there for centuries but I now live in York which was the Viking Capital of England, so I hope you’ll enjoy your return visit here. Remember, without that weather, Scotland would not be so beautiful! Och aye.
Total BS. And no one says och aye ffs
@@thigearlatha Everyone’s free to express an opinion and you’re welcome to yours. Nae problem.
@@PhilipTait-oi2hm that's not an opinion that's a fact. I'm Scottish born and bred, only people who say och aye are the sassanachs when they take the piss.
I say Och aye ra noo and I’m Scottish 😂 My DNA is Celtic though, not a drop of Viking I’m afraid. But hey, doesn’t matter what we are as long as we’re happy 👍🏴
@@McConnachy no, your not you complete tool. You're an Englishman with an Irish surname who thinks he's Scottish. Go into a pub in any Scottish town and say och aye , the noo! See how far that gets ye , ya walloper
Although the weather is not great, glad to see you're not letting it get in the way of discovering and enjoying our beautiful landscape.
Joel, as great as Glasgow and Edinburgh are, you definitely DID THE RIGHT THING by getting out of the cities and up into the Highlands and around the West Coast of Scotland. You hit the nail on the head about the origins of Scottish stoicism, pride and humour. Although so many people live in the cities, most have ancestral roots in the Highlands and Islands, and only there will you fully understand the Scottish people. And it’s breathtakingly beautiful too. And when you come back some time, you could easily spend weeks exploring Scotland and never get bored. I’m Southern English (with Scottish ancestry), and I find myself saying Aye, it’s such a lovely way to agree with someone. Good job Joel!
That’s tripe ,a lot of us have connections to Ireland for example. We’re not proud enough to vote for Independence are we?
Scotland definitely doesn't disappoint when you go off the beaten track
I have a friend from Glasgow lives here in a Manchester & I went up to Glasgow with him for a few days to meet some of his old friends and they spoken at a million miles an hour. I said you just instantly assimilated back into your Glaswegian accent. Fabulous & great people too. 👍🤣😎
I wish you were visiting Wales, but I love seeing Scotland, lovely country.
My father is Scottish, both his parents were Scottish and lived in Scotland. I've travelled all over Scotland and always feel a pull to go back. The scenery is breathtaking, the history is amazing. Fàilte air Alba!
Both my parents were Scottish and I feel the same!!
Yeah I wanna go live in some other countries for a while, but I’m always going to have to come back to Scotland
I’m not sure how to describe it, it sounds cringey but Scotland is in my soul, it’s just where I’m supposed to be
I’m Australian and adore Scotland so much that I’ve started learning Scottish Gallic, for my next visit. I was thrilled to understand what you wrote for JPS!
@@carokat1111
Learning any language is, undoubtedly, a great thing in so many ways. Please just be aware that Gaelic is only spoken conversationally by some natives of the Highlands and islands. Lowland Scots have never had Gaelic as their native language. Some learn and can use Gaelic well, and there are a few dual language schools in Lowland Scotland.
All the best with your language learning. I wish you a great time on your next visit to Scotland, and hope you get to many bonny places where you can use your newly acquired Gaelic.
@@skooshy621I'm SCOTTISH living in Glasgow and I speak Scottish Gaelic!
I left Scotland and moved to Australia in 1971, but i am still very proud to be Scottish. ❤ 🏴🇦🇺
I leave Scotland every year to go on holiday, but I always come back. And I'm definitely proud to be Scottish.
@@Mig57Same. Well I’m an Iraqi born who’s lived most his life in Scotland. There is something about this place, the people, patriotism and environment is just one of a kind. I’ve travelled all over Europe and always visit back to the motherland, Iraq, but I find myself missing Scotland. What a place.
Good on you its in your blood
So glad you got to see some of the glorious Highlands of Scotland Joel.
There is simply nowhere like it.
I take it you’re having a much better experience in Scotland this time 😇. I knew you would. Never been, but met many Scottish people and they were all so friendly and had a great sense of humour.
First time Scotland experience you mean. Edinburgh is as much "Scotland" as London is "England" :)
@@peterpain6625 I understand that. Athens most certainly isn’t Greece (contrast to islands for example). I think this is true for all countries with very large cities.
@@SirIsaacTheRed True.
Nice to see you having a good time visiting our northern brothers. Scotland is a great country.
My mothers family is from Argyleshire, so I know how proud it makes me feel!
Oh Joel this was superb
Great video, Scotland has stunning landscapes.
Lovely to see you out in the country and enjoying the beautiful Scottish landscape.
Filming in that rain shows true dedication for your job.
Hope you are having a blast. Scotland is a beautiful country.
2:32 cool tune. Scotland and the Scottish are wild, rugged and cold but when you've been there a while it's welcoming friendly and the people will warm you up with their humor and a dram of whiskey!
Or as I call whiskey,anti freeze😂😂😂
@@helenbailey8419😂😂 Love that.
It would be good to see him trying to keep with the Scots drinking.
'whisky'
Nothing like employing a stereotype is there?
The Highlands of Scotland are definitely beautiful, enjoy your visit
Beautiful Scottish highlands. You've got to come to Liverpool. A fellow American you tuber came and raved about it so much he's planning to stay here. xxx
JPS - you should always be proud of where you come from……. It’s what and who you are!
No, it is only one part of what and who you are.
Cloudy skies complemented by so much greenery. It's beautiful to me!
Aye! That was a good post. I know those places well. Did you have a chance to look around the Oban Distillery? See where the magical stuff is made? Face it Joel, you're an international star now, all the hard work you put into your channels and Patreon is paying you back.
I really enjoy the way you put together your posts with the footage and the conversation to us on the other side of the camera.
Keep on enjoying your adventures, make plenty notes for future trips. 👍👍👍
Also Innis & Gunn?? Decent choice there. Try and fit in a trip on the Glasgow subway if you get a chance, it's a great way to scoot around the city.
Wow, I hope you are doing ok Joel. Sorry about the British weather... but you know what it can be like!! wish you a happy holiday.. thanks for posting and keeping us up to date of where you are.
Scotland is a wonderful country for walking! In years past, along with UK pals, I've walked across its beautiful
countryside from west coast to east coast. The great memories remain. Good to see you there!
Loved this, thank you. I live in Manchester and used to go on family holidays to Inveraray. Scotland and the West Highlands are beautiful. Apparently after taking in the stunning, breath taking scenery, I said to my mum and dad at the age of 8, "I could die here" yeah, worrying but let's not analyse that, I just knew it was beautiful!! Glad you enjoyed Scotland outside of Edinburgh too :)
I'm an Englishman who has travelled up North to Scotland many times and I love the Scottish people. There are always exceptions to every rule of course, but on the whole, the Scots are friendly, hospitible and have a very dry sense of humour which I like very much, they are also by and large a very intelligent bunch of people. I hope the United Kingdom stays as just that...United, as I feel we are all better for it.
As a fellow Englishman, that's perfectly put. Agree with it all. 👏
As a Scotsman- I feel Scotland would be better off Independent.
Same here always very jolly as well
@@KMilton-iw2tk as a Scotswoman I disagree, we are better united.
@@jasmineteehee3612 agree with the fellow scotswoman
I'm so glad you came back to Scotland & got to experience the country. I was really disappointed that your last experience didn't go so well & was limited to only Edinburgh. Safe travels!
Welcome to Scotland Joel, have a great time 😊xx
Joel, no probs my good mate..... I am a Brit in the deep south of the UK, and I have trouble understanding many Scots people... it is not just you my friend!!
Hi Joel, you looked tired in Manchester, and the vlog was ok. This time you looked well rested, and the vlog really was alot better, even if your pronunciation was a bit dodgy. Your editing is getting better and better, and "Be Free with Me" really made it special. Here's to the next one, Best Wishes, T
You do this so well Joel - I'm enjoying your tour updates so much. You get recognised because we love you and what you do!
Jps I am so glad you have come back i love your smile you are such a chill young man
One of the great things about the UK in general is that you are allowed to walk most places, sometimes by designated paths but there is no risk of getting shot or arrested for being on someone's land.
It’s the ‘right to roam’ laws. Can practically go anywhere 👌
The Mass Trespass deserves its place in history because it benefited so many people.
My Aunty still lives at the foot of Kinder Scout, I wish I did as well. It's beautiful.
@@59jalex ‘The Mass Trespass’ 🤦♂️🤡🙄
That’s rubbish because England doesn’t have right to roam laws. Scotland does and I know cos my mam lives there and she told me that she prefers Scotlands right to roam laws which England doesn’t have
@@rankinlas It was a real thing and has a significance in British social history - a challenge by ordinary people of the right of hereditary landowners to fence off historical rights of way and common land. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_trespass_of_Kinder_Scout
have never been to Scotland but watching this, i now know i'm gonna go there
Yeah Scotland is breathtaking!! A pity the weather didn’t behave.
I find it quite funny how last time you visited it was extraordinarily warm and this time it's gloomy and relatively cool. Really sums up the weather in the UK, we might not have extreme weather but our weather is extremely bipolar..
it's warm one day, and cold another day, uWu such weather
Well we certainly could never complain that our weather is boring. Today's rain is tomorrow's whisky.
I’d imagine that up there in Scotland it’s cool even during British heatwaves. But yeah, it’s fair to say that our summer isn’t holding up compared to last year
Four seasons in one day isn't unusual in Scotland.
@@Mig57 it’s not unusual anywhere in the U.K.
Glad you're enjoying it! Nice to see you seeing the wider country! Scotland is beautiful!
I’ve lived in Scotland for over half my life and still only understand about 50% of what my Glaswegian father in law says 😂
Doric man impossible one of them all to understand I had to live in Aberdeen there for last of my childhood n teens
Glad you're enjoying Scotland. It's a shame you weren't here last month, we actually had some really nice weather for a change. Hope you enjoy the rest of your trip.
I am glad you are enjoying the beautiful Scottish countryside, but I am sorry the weather is a little poorly at the moment.
I thought that was quite good weather for Scotland! 😀
Weather looks great
I hope you enjoyed Scotland. I loved my visits so much, I moved to the Highlands and now live and work here.
Welcome back to Scotland J, so glad you decided to go up north, it's truly beautiful up there.
I have never been to Scotland but from what I can see it's quite a beauty and I hope you had a bonny time there, Joel. 😊👍🏻
It's so great to see you clearly enjoying your trip to the Highlands despite the weather and well done for eating the Mussells (shudders). It's also great that you're being more recognised on this trip which shows that people really appreciate what you do. I hope the rest of your trip is just as successful as it appears to have been up to now.
Haha you realise in Scotland “shudders” means shoulders 😂
This is more like it....I could see you were enjoying yourself here. The best video so far on this trip. Loved it...Well done!
Those views are certainly gobsmacking..... Sometimes the rain is more suited to certain landscapes and this is one instance.
I have never been to Scotland, but this has given me the appetite to make the effort and go.
I was very interested to see there was a "Timmie's" (Tim Horton's) there; I lived in Canada for a while some years ago and their branches were literally on every street corner (well almost). I found their coffee and faire very good value for money.
Hope you get to eat a proper sit down meal at some stage on your journey...maybe when you get to York, your host on YO1 will treat you to one of his Yorkshire pudding/roast beef meals.
Enjoy yourself....BTW enjoyed the background music on this.
I’m Edinburgh born and bred, but, I truly feel connected to Scotland the further north I go❤️I travel up to the highlands as often as I can, it’s untouched mostly. The glens and lochs are just as they have always been❤️I’m SO glad your here!🥰🏴
not quite always, sadly. only since the clearances aka ethnic cleansing.
None of our countryside is really untouched. There should be much heavier tree cover and clearing small farming communities of the land for sheep did an huge amount of both social and environmental damage. Basically our countryside hasn't been really wild for centuries and certainly not since the agricultural and industrial revolutions, but the upside is that we don't have famines any more and it's very beautiful.
As a Canadian, I was surprised to see a Tim Horton's breakfast at the beginning of this vlog! Didn't know our national coffee shop had stores in Scotland. I hope the food and coffee were better than they are here in Newfoundland and Labrador!🤔😉🇨🇦
Started about 5 years ago in the UK …
Of course, I did the original Tim Hortons in Cochrane, Ontario. I have visited Newfoundland & Labrador BY TRAIN (Sept Iles to Schefferville, including a ride on the locomotive from Emeril Junction to Esker).
Done every railroad in Canada from Carcross Yukon Territory and Prince Rupert and Vancouver, to Calgary, Moosonee, Sarnia, Windsor, Niagara, Senneterre, Jonquiere, Quebec and Halifax.
Much love from London England.
Lots of American brands coming here Cinnabon Taco Bell wingtop chick fil a Wendy’s popeyes Denny’s ect
@@bargainsstoragedeals3653 Yes, I understand that. But Tim Horton's is a Canadian brand, not a U.S.A. brand. Cheers!
@@carolmurphy7572 I know
Hi, I’m born and bred in Scotland. I come from a small town called Airdrie which is just outside Glasgow about 15-20 minutes by train and an hour away from Edinburgh. I’m happy to see you enjoying your trip to Bonnie Scotland despite the weather. I hope you had a great time and made lots of memories. Haste ye back (which means hope you come back) take care and safe travels 😘 🏴🇺🇸
Airdrie is a nice place. Regards from London.
Joel hope you are having great time on your journey.
I’m a Londoner half Scottish half English never been to Scotland. Thank you for showing it to me😂
I’m from Glasgow. I’m glad you are enjoying Scotland 🏴🦋🥰☺️
Joel, even though the weather is not the best, I can see that you feel so at home in Scotland. That scenery only gets better in sunny weather!!!
Joel, you totally get it!!! Unfortunately most tourists don't!!! Do you know what I mean???
I've travelled all over the UK and the west coast of Scotland has some of the best scenery, especially around Fort William. When it's sunny it obviously looks spectacular but the rain is so typical of this part of Britain and I'm glad you experienced it this way, a sort of classic way to see the highlands. Pleased that you've been here and for me this was perhaps the best vlog so far, although all are excellent. Keep up the great work mate. 🙂
So happy that you took the Highlands tour on this trip, and that you are hopefully meeting more of the true Scots people. The weather can be "difficult" at times, lol, but in general the Scots are really friendly, warm, and welcoming and they will go out of their way to help you if you need directions or assistance - provided you can understand them :) Of course, the wet weather is what makes Scotland so green and helps to keep the LOCHS (not lakes, lol) full to the brim. If you have a chance, try a morning roll (sort of like a hamburger bun but not sweet and they are delicious) with some square Lorne sausage, black pudding, potato scone and HP Brown Sauce for breakfast. It is the Scottish breakfast of champions and delicious and very unique to Scotland. Hope you have an incredible time for the rest of your stay in my ancestral home :)
Morning roll, square sausage....... You're making me hungry.......
@@lachlanmain6004 LOL....I'm making myself hungry......lol
'true Scots' hahaha
I am from Loch Lomond, it’s joyous to hear you appreciate my home country.
I've been watching for a very long time know keep up the great videos 🙌
Yay! I'm glad your visit here has, it seems, been much better than your previous trip to Edinburgh. I was so disappointed for you when you had those negative interactions in the capital. Anyhoo, I look forward to seeing more from your trip .......AYE! 😆👍
Great scenery Joel. Awe you've been recognised yet again, how wonderful ❤ Youre so right, the camera never does it justice. Take care
8:50 "some of the views you get in Scotland make you question whether this is actually Earth!"
Funny you should say that; Star Wars: Andor had one of its most terrific sequences filmed there ... Scotland doubled as planet Aldhani, with an actual hydro-electric dam doubling as a sort of imperial Fort Knox that our heroes needed to rob! It was all filmed on location, and looked brilliant and gorgeous!
Hi JP....We were up in Scotland just a few days before you which was a cancelled trip from 3 years ago due to you know what !! & you are right a camera does not do it justice you have to see it with your own eyes the absolute beauty of the Scottish landscape ! We took the train from Yorkshire to Glasgow via Edinburgh & went to Loch Lomond then the following day we took the train up to Fort William & then got on the Hogwarts's express to Mallaig then we did the reverse journey over 5 days & had a final overnight stay in Glasgow before returning home ! I would highly recommend it to anyone !
Scotland a very proud people indeed.
Not proud enough to vote for Independence.
@jmcc2275 Ah but when you hear the Scottish national anthem sung from the heart at sports event the passion comes through.
Enjoy , the u.k. has some stunning areas of natural beauty.
I'm not long back from a wild camping trip in Scotland - it was beyond awesome! Travelling up the east coast past the Isle of Arran to Glasgow, along Loch Lomond up to Glencoe, Isle of Skye, Inverness, Cairngorms. One of my favourite places on earth and I've travelled a fair bit and lived on several different continents. Enjoy!
Scotland is a beautiful and friendly country. Route 500 is meant to be stunning. one day I will return to do the route 500.
Just don’t do it in the height of summer, towing a caravan or in a campervan. Some parts, especially around Applecross are hairy at the best of times.
4 times? You are officially famous 😀. Nice views of Scotland by the way. Brings back good memories. The landscape, the castles, the weather...
I’ve been watching your videos for a few weeks. Really enjoying them but especially this recent one. Have live in rural England for over 30 years, and as an expat American love my life here. I totally get your feelings about Scotland. Have been many times and never lose the wonder I feel for its beauty. Have a brilliant trip, and if you do decide to settle in the UK I can promise you will never regret it!
Its awesome you're getting recognised Joel! Glad you're enjoying yourself! 😊😊
Almost every American says they are proud Americans from the greatest country on Earth.
which bullshit because America has problems like every country...
Yes many Americans have roots in the greatest country on earth Great Britain.
Scotland is beautiful for sure and it reminds me of the French Pyrenees but I couldn't live there because it's too cold for me. I said before I'm a southern dude and our summers last 2 months longer down here in Bath. I have Scottish friends here in my Uni..we are finishing for the summer tomorrow and going our separate ways until September. I wonder where you'll go next? To be honest I wish you would share more on YT because not all of us can afford your Patreon when we're on students budgets..as a fellow student I'm sure that you understand that
It’s nothing like the Pyrenees.
@@jmcc2275 Erm it actually is, we have had a family holiday home in Cauterets for twenty years (IN the Pyrenees National Park) I didn't say it was identical, but it reminded me of it unless you have another axe to grind
Brilliant Joel so glad you’re seeing the wonderful Scottish countryside. It looks so beautiful...I must visit, it’s a 6/7 hour car journey from where I live. Glad you’re enjoying our British isle. It’s great to have you here again. Looking forward to your next visit. 👍😉
I love he highlands the views are to die for. ❤
So happy for you Joel.
It's good to see you enjoying being on Scottish soil, it's a stunning place to be. You have to do reaction videos of Still Game now that you have been, you will enjoy it.
How very perceptive of you to understand where the Scots character comes from. You are indeed correct about the pride; and the climate. Glad you finally managed to pronounce Inveraray! It is my favourite place on Earth
Yeah we’re that proud we chicken out of Independence.
Im so glad you came back and saw a bit of the Highlands! I've lived in Scotland 15 years, I never plan to leave. If you can ever get some walking boots and get someone to guide you up a Munro you know you're really here! Would make a great vid! Enjoy.
I’m here and I’ve never even seen a Munro.
You seem so much happier and more relaxed once you get out of town. The mussels though!
I'm glad your loving the UK you seem like a nice young man and I hope you love the rest of your holiday respect 👍
Glad you have got to see some of the fantastic Scottish countryside this time around. It may have been raining on and off, but you could still see, even on camera, how stunning it is.
It's great that you're being recognised by random strangers as you go around! I know it may seem weird in a small place like Inverary - but hey- that's the internet for you!
I’m glad you enjoyed your visit to our beautiful country. With all the rain in your video now you can understand why it is so lush and green. So many beautiful views, you must come again.👍🏴
Hi Joel I’ve traveled the states extensively and met many Americans,your a credit to your parents.
You seem so happy there in Scotland perhaps that's where your roots are many generations ago.. Enjoy 😊
Good to see you’re enjoying the trip. The clips are something else. Well done.
Your camera work almost did do it justice pal. Thankyou for presenting my wee country so well and thanks for visiting us.
Despite the rain and cloudy weather Joel, it still looked amazing and I imagine that you had an awesome time. I understand how mind blowing it must be to you when you get recognised, because as far as you're concerned, you're just a kid from America on holiday, who makes the odd video from time to time, but hopefully it will give you some indication of how popular you are to us people across "The Pond". Can't wait for the next vlog. Keep doing what you're doing Joel. Lyd x
I’m so glad you’re enjoying Scotland it’s a beautiful country especially the highlands Scottish people are very welcoming enjoy the rest of your trip
people tend to miss dumfries and galloway,the forgotten part of scotland,in my opinion much more diverse and scenic than the highlands
