This week I’m back in England and walking around the Oxfordshire village where I grew up. The idyllic small village of Wroxton can be found in the. peaceful Cotswolds region of England, just a few miles outside of the market town of Banbury. Banbury is famous for it’s cross, and the fine lady upon a white horse who historically visited here.
Despite it’s close proximity to Banbury town, Wroxton is a traditional village almost untouched by time. There is no post office or village shop, but it holds something far more exciting: An Abbey.
Wroxton Abbey is a former monastery first built in the 12th century (almost 1000 years ago!) and is now home of Farleigh Dickinson University. The grounds are a treasure and packed with history and tranquil scenery.
In this video we also head to the village of Milton for Miu to try his first ever English Beef and Ale Pie made with locally brewed Hook Norton Beer (Or Hooky to us locals).
Let me know what you think of this video and what you’d like to see whilst we are back in England.

这周我回到英国，在我长大的牛津郡村庄散步。田园诗般的小村庄Wroxton位于英格兰宁静的科茨沃尔德地区，距离集镇班伯里只有几英里。班伯里以其十字架而闻名，这位骑着白马的优秀女士历来过这里。
尽管Wroxton离班伯里镇很近，但它是一个传统村庄，几乎没有受到时间的影响。没有邮局或乡村商店，但它拥有更令人兴奋的东西：修道院。
洛克斯顿修道院是一座前修道院，最初建于12世纪（近1000年前！）现在是法利·迪金森大学的所在地。场地是宝藏，充满了历史和宁静的风景。
在这段视频中，我们还前往米尔顿村，为Miu尝试他有史以来第一次用当地酿造的胡克诺顿啤酒（或对我们当地人来说）制作的英国牛肉和啤酒派。
告诉我你对这段视频的看法，以及我们回到英国后你想看什么。

so, comparing with shanghai, which place would you prefer to live in the long run? English Village or Shanghai?
Have you ever been to Great Britain?
What a beautiful village you grew up in! I’ve heard the UK has got the best gardens in the world, and now I know it’s probably true.
so lovely view
Wow! Everything is so beautiful and peaceful there! The Hogwarts level of intrigue and history to all of those places shown in the first portion is amazing too lol
quaint little place
A beeeautiful and serene place. 😍
确实应该离开，现在上海太热了，出门半小时挥汗如雨😂
how about getting us some hot cross buns
Thanks for sharing. I am very happy that you are travelling to your homeplace together. I hope Miu is enjoying this trip too. He looks so more like whatever 😅 but i think he is not so much the type to show emotions. The place is very beautiful, peaceful and quiet, a perfect place to marry. I was only in london city it was not so quiet😂
I want more!!!! It was too short!!!! I loved it.
Very beautiful village.
我去过你的家乡，amazing village
Nice choice for your wedding! Very scenic country – side, very lovely, waiting to see more!
What a wonderful University, lush green, peaceful, beautiful garden and a Church.

English summer beautifully filmed! By the way, Blenheim Palace is worth a visit too if you haven't already been. Lovely video as always, thank you for posting.
Oh you are in England, please tell me you will be returning to China?
That is a beautiful town, if the cars were removed one could think they had traveled back in time.
还好没尼哥不然小镇危险了😍
So beautiful! Do you have any travel plan in the UK?
Love to see the Cotswolds highlighted. Thank you
太好了。感谢让我们看看我们展示您的家
old world houses sure are more cultured and full of charms than American pre-fabricated "modern living". lol
I always think English people marry on their old age after 30 or 40 years old.
Keep it up. I like your videos very much especially the songs.
So relaxing watching your videos.👍👍👍
你的家乡很漂亮
Look like a medieval town!
Your channel is eventually going to get a REALLY MASSIVE AUDIENCE because your videos are pleasant and you speak very interestingly. Cheers.
what a beautiful place to live in! hope someday I can visit there.
Luckiest guy to even get a girl that’s brought up in the country side of Cotswold. Really beautiful place
