As someone who grew up by Bridgend and went to university in Swansea, it was unreal seeing a video like this about my home. Mumbles I've been to so many times, went shopping in Swansea market on the regular (I hate laverbread two lmao cockles are aa'ight) but then to see Dunraven Bay in Southerndown, that was legit where I always used to go with my friends growing up, especially if it was stormy weather to see the sea bash the cliffs😭 Hope you walked around the lil castle garden there too it's really cute! Thanks for making this lil Welsh boi v v happy❤️

A great way to round off the series of U.K. vlogs. I have a friend who lives in Swansea and her grandparents live in the Mumbles. Last time I saw her in Swansea this summer, we went to the marina for lunch, which made a good change from going into the city centre.

Excellent video, got very lucky with the weather when you were here! Not surprised you weren't so keen on some of the Welsh dishes: not a big fan of some of those myself. Suspect some of those dishes are more for tourists to try rather than eaten by everyday people. Good choice of locations in Swansea: the marina and market definitely among the best places to see there.

You need to try the Bara Brith slightly warm with butter, I am not a fruitcake fan but this makes it really yummy! Also get welsh butter as it’s extra salty!! Bara Brith is different to normal fruit cake as the fruit is soaked in tea.

Thanx for this beautiful video posting! While I was watching this ,a song came to my mind " hold me now" by thompsons twins ( oh not too sure of the name ,forgot now!) .The husband of this couple looks like the lead singer...a bit. The seaweed stuff ,I'd love to try out as I am Japanese ,so used to it! And I'm a vegetarian( hope that is a vegetarian dish?) ,but he is right, the textures of food often help ,or ruin,determine the judgment! Like I said ,I am so used to eat seaweed all my life,but when I had SEAWEED DESSERTS at a vietnamese vegan restaurant,I couldn't eat it!!! Lol.As we hardly eat sweetened seaweed like that ( in a different form,yes! Like agar agar KANTEN Carageene? Not sure if that was the word .lol ) in the original weed form! My sister couldn't ,either! It was horrible! The owner was so nice to us ,and everytime we went she gave us that for free ! Assuming we Japanese love seeweads in any flavors! Lol.We got so terrified to go there at one point ,had to tell that to the owner ! Lol.So,I understand it.The pancakes ( I am amazed Brits call it the same way as here in the u.s.!) Looked yum & clever as it's a finger food! No forks & knives needed! The vanilla ice cream looked like something to dye for!!! I could feel their pride in the presentation & the cup! Simple ,just VANILLA ONLY! There are reasons for them to be staying alive in the business since 1920's! I bet no preservatives no fillers no additives non GMO! A family owned w/ family recepies!!!

Where I come from what you have in that tub is laver. What we call laver bread is laver mixed into oats, made into cakes and fried in bacon fat and served in a full Welsh breakfast.
