Walking in Spring in Crouch End, London, UK

Описание: I'm finally free! I can make videos again! No, I've not been released from prison, or let go after being kidnapped — I've just finished my exams. I had the silly idea to study for a masters on top of working a full-time job. It has left me feeling like a master of very little — just very tired. But my exams are done now and I won't need to think about maths again! (Until next semester!)

Whatever the case, it's a milestone. And on the subject of milestones: this channel is now a year old! (Well, the first, awful, video was posted on May 31 2022.) So here's a little video to mark the occasion and help me get back into things. I'm moving home soon, and Crouch End is one of my favorite places in walking distance. With its village town center feel, it's kind of hard to believe it sits in Zone 3, just off Parkland Walk between Alexandra Palace and Finsbury Park.

It's saturated with great places to eat and drink as well as independent shops and boutiques. Cafe Beam and Sourdough Sophia are both staggeringly good and are well worth making the trip for by themselves. There's also Banner's, a local haunt that serves an eclectic range of food — Manx and Caribbean, anyone? — with a table dedicated to Bob Dylan after he ate there. If it's good enough for him, it's good enough for me.

No chapter stamps here as it's basically just two roads and would look a bit silly. This was filmed on Panasonic GH5 in May 2022.
