Grackle Solo travelling with so much confidence is testament to how fighting and challenging anxiety and fear over and over again, eventually leads to it no longer being a fear! So proud of you Grace as I remember how homesick you used to get just being away from the family household for just one night! Go girl 💪❤️ the world is your oyster 🙌🙌🙌
I'm so proud of you Grace, I remember a few years ago when being away from home and your family for a night was such an overwhelming thing for you and now you're a world traveller! Well done for overcoming your fear!
As someone who lives in cambridge, just putting it out there that no matter the weather, the queue for Jack's gelato is always mahoooosive!
shut up Lauren, go to Arbury and say that.... Sure the roadmen would like to buy you a gelato
I still have never been there yet and I have lived in Cambridge my whole life. I definitely will be going there eventually though!
I am both a student at Cambridge and have lived here all my life - it has such a different vibe to anywhere else in the UK, everyone is so friendly and calm, much love for Cambridge
you been to chesterton, arbury, barnwell or cherry hinton??? XDDD lets see if everyone is nice and friendly there.
@@archiesweeney4948 I live around them areas so yeah definitely not quite the same as other parts XD
Thank you so much for your new series. I love it and it lets me "visit" places I would never get to see in real life. So much enjoyment. Your are a jewel of a travel guide. Keep it up!
Grace and her excellent adventures! Perfect, relaxed, peaceful, interesting browse around beautiful Cambridge. Hot here in Texas too. The pacing of this video was just right for hot weather. Glad you found really good places for meals. The gelato of dreams was a happy surprise. Wonderful video. Thanks, Grace.
Grack, I went to Cambridge for my PGCE and can confirm a trip to Jacks was a regular study break whatever the weather. They even do a secret flavour everyday which you can ask to try! So so glad you loved it 🥰❤️
So happy for this new series! Can’t wait for the next “episode”
YES! Going to Cambridge for the first time this weekend!!! SO PUMPED that you got to go and now I have all these recs
Fantastic video, Grace!
The hotel, museums and food looked amazing...
I love this new series!!! Exploring new places if my favourite x
I love a solo travel working tour, a great way to meet new people and learn about your surroundings plus get good tips for the experts x
Loved this - you should come to Exeter... you drive past it when heading to Cornwall. It's often overlooked for that reason, but it is a beautiful/historic city to live in, as I do, and visit.
Ahhh I live here and you have now showed me new amazing things to try, that’s my weekend sorted!! Yay x
I cried through most of the vlog 😂😭 I lived in Cambridge as an au pair a while back and I have so much love for that place ♥️♥️ I was so happy there and miss it so much. Thank you for taking me back to all of my favorite places 🥹
Loving this series! Well, I enjoy all your videos
So happy to see this! I'm going to Cambridge tomorrow for the weekend and I'm so excited!
Grace you are single-handedly helping me plan my post graduation trip after college, you’re the best babes
I live 45 mins away from Cambridge I have moved this way about 19 years ago as I met my darling husband. I've not been to some of those places you showed . Makes me want to go and explore the city . I've been to a few of the museums . The polar explorer one is on my list. Love your videos. I'm a 43 women and I love how amazing and true you are . God bless.x
Phonetically L’Occitane is lox-ee-tan
Cambridge is stunning
Thank you, I feel quite silly saying it wrong all this time. Tbh everyone around me says it wrong too
@@marlajacques6947 We have a local store and I only got it from asking the people who run that. It’s definitely not obvious
Oh Grace, that was so well done! The editing was very good. You showed us so many beautiful places. (And yes, you pronounced poo-TEEN very well. --emphasis on last syllable). Hugs from Canada!
Oh dearie ... a walking tour with other people is lots of fun!!! You're very social and friendly, I think you'd have a wonderful time. You hear some very interesting information and people ask questions about things you may not have thought of .... try & get over the trepidation and try one!
Excellent choices for food! Jack's gelato is simply top notch! And bread and meat is my favourite!
Travelling like you is so much fun!
Work, come home, travel with Grace! 💞
Proud of her for going on solo trips!
Love this series so far!
Loved watching this vlog! I lived just outside Cambridge for 7 years and now live in Australia so it was like a visit back home without the travel 😃
Really enjoyed this! Thanks, Grack! xxx
I loveeeee this series!
Loving this series x
Grace you must do a free walking your one day!! They're amazing, the guides are so passionate about the place, so many fun facts & recommendations. I do them alone & people generally keep themselves to themselves
aaahh my hometown
If you ever come to Canada you’ll have to try the OG poutine here… the Cambridge one did look amazing! 🍁
Hi Grace, you should consider visiting some less touristy places in the UK to show everyone what there is to see off the beaten track. I live in Leicester and we have cool museums, the tomb of Richard III, amazing indian food (really unique cuisines like indo chinese and gujarati), The Tiny Bakey (bit of you!), canals and parks, big festivals (like diwali, englands oldest comedy festival and navratri) and we now have the tallest piece of street art in Europe! Happy to show you around if you ever want to come:)
I love how you look in that red jumpsuit: you don’t often wear read but it suits you so well. Thank you for showing Cambridge; my travelling years are over, but I like seeing places through other people’s eyes. That app looks so useful!
"Everywhere I looked in Cambridge felt like I was in a movie set. Honestly, (I) can't imagine how it feels to actually go to Cambridge university. That must be so surreal because you're literally where so many people dream to go. And it's just so beautiful, literally, everywhere you turn." Thank you for putting into words how I felt as a Cambridge alum. You have such a good on-screen persona. Keep the videos coming!
Enjoyed this one as I live just outside Cambridge ♥️
Thank you love your channels and you too!!💖😘💗🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
I’m 36 and did my first solo trip a couple months ago to see someone in concert. I went to a museum, stayed for hours! Saw a comedy show. I wish I had the nerve to start doing this earlier! It has now led to me buying VIP tickets to concerts to acts no one else know but me. I’ve started going to movies on my day off. I’ve stopped always trying to look for people to go do things with me because I wanted to do that thing, if I want to go, I go, and if I happen to see someone I know when I get there, even better! 🖤
I’ve been a solo traveller/ gig goer for years. Mostly because I like bands most people don’t have a clue about 😂 It’s very freeing. Love spending time with friends of course, but the ability to just do as you please is great
@@theflowerpots I’m a wheelchair user so it’s not always easy, but in the last 25 years I’ve been to the States and large parts of Europe on my own. I hope you’ll find the confidence one day because it really is a great experience
my home town 🥳🥳 so glad you loved it
aww i think these are definitely main channel content!!
I really enjoy these even though I know I will never make it over the pond to visit these places.
I would love to see you try the local traditional meals/food of the places you visit and hear your reviews on them :)
this video made my heart happy💕💕
Hotel looked great! The burrito bowl looked delicious wouldn’t mind the chips too- feeling hungry now! Solo travelling you are super brave!
Oh yes. This is exactly what I needed today, it’s been a rough week and I’m so needing a hangout with Grack. Thank you for being you.
Loving the series
Having my flat feature in a grack video is my claim to fame. Plus the college I live at! 😊😊😊😊
A lot of my family live/d in and around Cambridge. It's a beautiful City. This vlog brought back memories of childhood and family ♥️🌈🙏
Ah so cool to see you in Cambridge. I have to go to the hospital there so me & my partner always meander around Cambridge, it’s so beautiful. We have also stayed in Hotel Du Vin! Which was amazing. You should come to Norwich, you would love the market. Same deal of most things being shut on Mondays though!! X
My hometown. This makes me so happy
I have been watching you for years and it is so strange watching you be in Cambridge. That's where I am from and grew up. I loved seeing it through your eyes. I went to school in central Cambridge (Hills Road) and have taken all of this for granted my entire life. I hope you enjoyed yourself. The parking is abysmal though. We tend to use the Park and Ride buses most of the time. 😊
My sister worked in Cambridge on her placement year last year and I got to visit her, and it is lovely! We did almost all the things you did, except the one day I was alone when she was working I rented a bike and cycled about by myself (forgot bike shorts so didn't go too far, haha!! Didn't want to flash everyone!!) and found cycle trails and a place to sit and read. We went on a punting boat tour and learned loads of facts so I'd recommend that too! Love the Fitzwilliam museum too, really good.
My mums from Cambridge and as someone from New Zealand I find myself in awe everytime i visit
Loved the vibe of this Video:)
Hi Grace, I discovered you about 2 months ago and I just wanted to let you know, you are my new comfort youtuber. Your videos bring me so much joy. You're such a genuine person and your video are just so warm and cozy 💛
I really enjoy your travel vlogs
Oh my home town, my mum used to work at the Fitzwilliam as a gallery assistant x
The apple tree is at Woolsthorpe Manor, Newtons home in Lincolnshire. Now part of the National Trust.
So proud of you it feels like an age where solo travel was difficult and caused you not to sleep well and to me- that would taint the trip. I get panicy in new places, I can't stay in a b&b or hostel etc I need to be able to lock the room tight and I'll relax 😂 you should come to Yorkshire sometime. I could be your tour guide 😂 xx
Welcome to my home city! Never clicked on a video so fast 😅❤️
I’m happy you loved the poutine. Makes the Canadian in me feel fuzzy and happy hehe. But if you want the proper poutine you have to have it in Canada specifically Montreal.
omg yay! I'm so glad you were able to enjoy Cambridge and you literally hit all of my fav spots! if you ever want to visit some Cambridge colleges please let me know :)
i love these!!
I used to work at Jack's! I left a week before you came, absolutely gutted to have missed you 😩
Enjoyed this. Hope you do oxford and brighton
This channel is Amazing!
you should do '24 hours/abroad' too! cant wait! xxx
You should visit Lincoln, Norwich and York!x
Very helpful video. You are one of two CZcams bloggers that I always ref prior to travelling (for your frank and unbiased recommendations on both eateries and accommodation) .
Also there are four types of hotel, (forgetting the obvious crappy and badly run type!) The old, periodic, gold gilded, ostentatious ones - The plain non descriptive company motorway ones, The privately 'one off' ones, and The modern boutique tasteful furnished interior ones. (The latter being personal preference).
Come on hotel chains!.... put some money into it and come out of the dark into the light of the 21st century!.
You can get chips cheese and gravy at most chip shops !
I am in the US, but used to work for a department out of Toronto. I asked my Toronto coworkers where to get the best poutine, and one said, "Costco!" So I tried it there, and it was pretty good, actually!
Oooh this is so fun! You should do Edinburgh! Such a beautiful city and I’m hoping to go this year so would be great to see what you think :)
I know she did one there because it was the very first vlog I watched of her 😃
Thank you much love xx
Hot tip for jacks gelato, if you stand by the window there's a little qr code you can scan and order online and they'll make the ice cream faster for you and just hand it out the window because you don't have to pay anymore 👌
Smokeworks seems to be hit or miss, certainly was a miss for me.
Bread and Meat was great!
Highly recommend Maison Clement on Hills Rd, amazing bread and pastries 👌
Cambridge is my home town, its quite a special place
6:47 The real tree is in Woolsthorpe Manor and still even produces apples I'm pretty sure (although it did get struck by lightning).
You should have tried the markets, they have such amazing food from all around the world
Cambridge = Morse for me. (If you know you know.) I never made it there but am forever hopeful that I'll be able to. I'm even more determined since getting to share your time there. What a great way to spend 24 hours.
As a Canadian I can vouch for that poutine (poo-tin) …it’s pretty authentic looking 😉 😋 🇨🇦
Your hotel room looked over the Dyson engineering centre. Park street car park is the worst car park to go too, purely for how old it is, hence the small spaces. Car parking is extortionate regardless in Cambridge too. Lovely hotel though.
Love this episode! What was the app you used for the guided tour?
I can’t believe you have done Cambridge and Bath first, I’m from Cambridge and going to Bath for uni this year!!!
Best youtuber ever!
the "pou" in poutine is pronounced like "pu" in pudding and then "tin" like tinfoil, or atleast thats how we say it in montreal which is more frenchy than rest of canada (but also where it originated from so im gonna say it's the correct pronunciation lol). lovely video :)
loved this!! you should so come to oxford next - i’d love to see what you get up to around the city :))
Great video thanks x
Hey this is where I live! For people looking in the comments- I highly recommend Heffers and the box room cafe for board games!!
Also did you look for the tiny doors?
If you go to Cambridge again please do a guided punting tour, it’s so worth it
I'd love you to mention if there are allergy friendly places? sometimes its hard for us with dietary requirements to find stuff, if you happen to see anything during your exploration id love to know!
Hahaha Grace, why do you never check the opening times/days of places before you visit?
Omg I can’t believe you were in Cambridge and I didn’t get to see you 😩
That outfit looks great on you!
Omg yes! A new Grackle video :)
What happened to the Brighton one yesterday or the day before?
I asked the same!
Someone said she told on insta that she uploaded the wrong file. I wondered, too!
@@peppermint1bd that makes more sense! I thought I was going crazy for a couple seconds haha
@@imjustaferretsir920 I even looked up Brighton news to see if something had happened there! 😣
I don’t know if you said where you stayed but it would be helpful if you linked the hotels you stay in😊
I virtually waved hello watching this from my house in Cambridge 😂
They didn’t put enough cheese curds in. Please come to Vancouver on your next holiday xx
You don’t understand how much I wish I knew you in real life, we’d honestly get on soooo well! X
Hi ! What's the app you used for the guided walk ? Hope you're well 🙂x
Cambridge bikes are a double edged sword. Very often go where they shouldn’t and dangerously.when did you have to start paying to go in Kettles Yard? I’m shocked! 🙈not lived in Cambridge for years.
