No talking, just walking. Exploring the English Countryside. A nice gentle walk around an old English village, Longnor. The village dates back to the year 700, unfortunately earlier records have been lost so it could probably be much older. Its old name is Longenaire and was listed in the Great Doomsday Book (sounds really dramatic but was actually just a census carried out in England in 1086 by order of William the Conqueror) It’s a small village, we walk through and around pretty much covering the whole village. A lovely walk. Do enjoy 🙂

About Dave’s Walks
I am Dave Shaw, I’ve lived in the English countryside all my life, and I love it! I enjoy walking, I also enjoy watching videos of other people walking. So I found myself inspired and decided to get some camera equipment and make some of my own walking videos, so I can share my walks of the beautiful countryside with other like-minded people.
After looking all around on YouTube, I could not find that many channels that focus on the Great British Countryside, and so this is what I will mainly focus on. Small towns, villages, picturesque landscapes, rolling hills and mountains, forests and canals, and all along the coastlines.
I upload a video every Sunday 11.45am (GMT)

I use the free version of Davinci Resolve 16 to do some really basic editing. Mainly making sure the sky isn’t over exposed. I don’t edit the colours as the Pocket 2 delivers the best. I also cut the volume whenever I say hi to a passerby as the mic picks up my voice like a sonic boom.. It’s from Camera straight to YouTube. No cuts, no fancy business, no talking, just walking.

Psssst Hey there…
Do you have trouble sleeping? Do you like to have something playing quietly in the background that helps you to sleep/relax/study/work/read/reduce stress/reduce anxiety? Things like soft nature sounds, a quiet trickling stream, crickets in the grass, a gentle crackling fireplace, rain in the jungle, a distant rumble of thunder?
I have a second YouTube channel… Bit different to what I do here, it’s more audio focused. Feel free to check it out.
