    I love Cambria. My boyfriend and I found this place about 4 years ago. We fell in love with it so much that we go more than 5 times a year. He proposed to me at sunset by the love locks.

Your videos are so well edited and well paced. I like how you recommend something for everyone. Some of the best CA travel vlogs out there.

    Found by chance to spend the night on the way from san francisco to los angeles, a wonderful find, a place with a lot of charm. thank you very much for the insight into Hearst Castle. We were denied access in 2016 because of the great fire in the backcountry. The visitor station became a base station for the arriving firefighters and we were instructed to head back to the sea. Thank God the fire did not reach this wonderful property. Hearst Castle was then the place to be for the Hollywood stars, who received an invitation to the legendary parties was a lucky one. Many thanks for your great videos. Best wishes from Germany

    Love this place like everyone else that's been there. Stayed in a little hotel at the north end that had a little 9 hole golf course(long gone) and walked with the kids all over that town and it's beaches. Great Rock finds and cliffs that we're amazing. Just a short drive to the elephant seals( plan a trip around seeing that) and the Hearst Castle, just a great place to see. The quaint little town of Cambria.....phenominal

If COVID ever ends, I would love to travel & enjoy the places in Cambria & San Simeon that you are suggesting. Sorry if name icon comes up 2x. Some sort of computer glitch we don't know how to fix.

    Cambria is a beautiful place. Moonstone beach, Nit Whit Ridge, and the small business are all beautiful. If you have the time. If you have time I highly recommend going to Harmony Pop. 18, they have a local creamery pottery shop and glass studio. The central coast is a beautiful place.

    Another great video Josh and Amy. I always like you’re Central Coast videos. Even being a SLO local, I learn a lot from you’re recommendations. I never knew about the country fried steak. Country fried steak is one of my favorite comfort foods. I have a few places I like in the area. I am going to have it there in Cambria now. Boni’s tacos are also fantastic. Great recommendations for anyone coming to visit the central coast.
