ASMR Tracing a Map of Aotearoa New Zealand (soft spoken)

No history today, just a little soft spoken rambling as we explore a map of Aotearoa New Zealand. A huge thank you goes to Jak, who sent these two maps and also added a lovely letter with some fun facts (in stunning handwriting btw). 🧡
Hope you all find some relaxation and rest despite the heat. Sleep well!

Another one of my favorite ASMRtists is from New Zealand (Nana Fox) so I’ve learned a lot about it in the past, but the level of depth you go into regarding elements of the history and geography is just outstanding. I feel even more informed and hopeful to one day go there. I’m so happy to have found your channel. I absolutely love your work. Also, I can’t believe that even though your subscribers and comments are exploding, you take the time to respond to so many people. You must be a very busy person these days! Thank you so much for what you are doing. I am devouring your content and I’m more relaxed (and informed) than ever!!

@MelangeASMR 2 жыл бұрын

Nana Fox is wonderful, I love her so much! Aw thank you, I'm glad it's appreciated - the last month has definitely been a bit stressful 😅 I definitely can't keep up with everyone anymore, but almost all comments are so generous with positive feedback or interesting bits of information and it's a very rewarding part of youtube for me. (There's the occasional... interesting person lol, but I guess that's always part of it.)

As a New Zealander seeing this video made my week. Beautiful pronunciation of the Māori place names. I think these maps might have been printed before the Lord of the Rings were made 😅 but Matamata in the Waikato region is where Hobbiton scenes were filmed. These maps bring back very fond memories.

Actually I've lived in New Zealand for a year. If your still searching for the LOTR sets habe a look around the City called Matamata. There is the famous hobbiton set, I've lived in exactly that city for working. It's near Hamilton. You can also have look near the Tongariro Mountains in the middle of the north island, there where also a couple of sets. But most of the films was filmed on the south Island as far as I know In the southern Alps and their near area.

Despite English, I’m assuming, not being your first language, you have such a clear and intelligible way of speaking. It’s absolutely brilliant to listen to and I don’t ever find myself going “huh” or “what did she say?”. And being from England myself you are more well spoken than many people I have met 😂.
