      I think it can be easy for people to lose thier mindfulness where they live from time to time if they don't keep on eye on themselves much,the trick can be to notice it as much as possable when you know your brain has it and find ways to make it stronger and keep it strong as much as you can.

      @@aclaireytale I worked on something then called the fellowship programme, there was about 6 people from each country, we worked 4 days per week and 1 day per week was as educational/cultural day - basic courses in Disney management, learning a bit about behind the scenes etc. (which back then, without the internet, was a mystery and great to learn about). The 4 days I worked in the Twinings Teacaddy shop. I was actually sponsored by Twinings Tea as their representative (as at the time they were paying $100k a year just for the privilege of having a shop there). The fellowship programme worked along-side the cultural rep programme, but I think they stopped doing it around 2003. What did you do there?

    Sorry, I think this will be a long comment.😅 God, I am so homesick watching this. I used to live and go to school in Torquay and Paignton many years ago. I think you need at least a week to explore the area. I recommend staying in Masts self-catering apts above the theatre on Torquay seafront, if they haven't all been bought up for solely private use by now. They have spectacular views from their balconies. Or Vista apts in Goodrington overlooking Young's Park. Lovely views again but ditto caveat. The Cliff Walk to Paignton harbour is a delightful stroll. TJs restaurant overlooking the harbour is nice. I don't normally like zoos unless they are doing sterling conservation and education work. Paignton is good in this regard and the zoo is very green and leafy (like walking on a hiking trail through woods in places). Then there is the Quaywest Splashdown aquapark in Goodrington. But the best day trip by far is the Round Robin which takes you by steam train from Paignton to Kingswear, ferry to Dartmouth, then riverboat upriver to Totnes, then public bus back to Paignton. Or you can do the route the other way round. It's a wonderful day out. And I haven't even started on Dartmoor horse riding... By the way I envy all you lot who still call it home. I miss the sound and sight of the sea and the cries of the seagulls so much! 😭

I walkways wanted to go. It’s incredible to see that after all these years (I’ll be 60 next month) it is still there! I’ve only been to England one time, to visit Brixham & Cousins in Cornwall… in the winter. Next time I must visit in the summer! Thank you for sharing this!

We lived there for 3 years and every time we had family of friends stay we always took them to the model village and Kent’s Cavern and to see Torquay! i haven’t been back since the late 80’s! the bus you got back the number 12 to Newton Abbot made me smile. My school was in Newton Abbot! That boat ride looked like so much fun! I have been on a Jet Boat in New Zealand which was a similar idea! What a fab video and the weather looked amazing. Mind you my memories of Devon (as a child 😂🤣) were it was warm and sunny. We used to spend our summers in the school swimming pool which they opened up to the village in the evenings, weekends and school holidays! 😍🤩

    Came across your channel by accident, glad I did as the English Riviera is our favourite holiday destination. We live in Merseyside and travel down to Paignton every September for our holiday. If you ever go again try out the Round Robin (it’s an open top bus to Totnes, a sail on the river dart to Dartmouth then the steam train back to Paignton (depending on tide times you may have to do it the other way around). You can also get the ferry from Paignton to Brixham or Torquay. One more place would be Cockington Village which you can walk to or get the bus from Torquay. We’ve also taken the bus to Plymouth. You’ve given us a few new places to eat out to try. Think I’ll leave the raptor though as not good with thrill rides but it must be new as never seen that before.

    Awesome little video you girls have made !!! I’m originally from the UK but live in Houston Texas in the USA now and took a trip back to visit my parents. We took a mini break in Brixham 25/8/22 - 28/8/22 & my brother rented that pirate ship in the Harbour for one night lol (it has 2 bedrooms on board) I forgot just how beautiful England is especially Devon when the sun is out, the coastline down there is hard to beat !!! Glad you girls had a blast, I’m back in Houston now but your video made me miss my mini getaway 🤣🤣
