A Canadian in England: My Adventures Abroad: January 2011

Well folks, here's the last video taken on my trip through Western Europe. I really enjoyed the whole vlogging experience - traveling is so stimulating, and I found it very difficult to sit down with my notebook and write my experiences as I was living them, so filming myself instead was a good remedy for my lack of focus. I am currently working on an essay about contemporary British Cinema (yay! I get to watch British movies all day!), but slowly, as inspiration strikes, I plan on writing some blog posts about my travels (with all of the good times, stressful times, and beer-drinkin' times) and sharing them with you. I spent nearly three weeks visiting five different countries and I feel each one deserves its own little story, so while I've been a bit lethargic since I arrived back at Essex (but definitely still in good spirits!), I'll hopefully have some more of my meticulous writings up here within the next few days and weeks. For now, here's a video taken on our cramped Ryanair flight (but it got us home in one piece, so I can't complain too much :P). Also, Youtube insists on picking the most awkward screencaps of my face to display >:( In terms of the sound quality, I have no clue why I was whispering, as I now realize you can't hear a damn word I'm saying. I think I said something along the lines of "Hey everyone, we're on our Ryanair flight from Rome to Stansted airport, it's super packed, but it'll just be a little hop across the English channel" and then Steph astutely mentions that our pilot looks about 12 years old (which he totally did - I was close to asking for his credentials). That's pretty much it, haha. Enjoy!

Cheers!
