    I'm an Australian who was there in 2017, driving from San Fran to LA. Stayed at the Beachside Inn. Beautiful, little town. Seemed very liveable.

    As usual, a fantastic video highlighting the best of Santa Barbara! I’ve been trying to convince my twins to apply to college there. Back in the day (when Common Sense was still rocking Isla Vista) it wasn’t too tough but now, oof! 😊
  • @dommytsunami86

    The thumbnail is absolutely adorable. The Traveling Princess' pink dress is so pretty She certainly dressed for the occasion 😊. All of the food looked delicious , especially the Cajun food.

    Cool video on one of my favorite cities to visit.
  • @bevvyloo7952
    The McConnell’s ice cream is delicious! We spent 2 nights in Santa Barbara on our recent California Road Trip in May - we loved it! It was our first visit to California from the UK & we found lots of your vlogs very helpful. Thank you 😍
  • @scottman895
    Santa Barbara looks really nice! I like those views from the top of the tower at the courthouse. I never knew sea urchin would look so tasty. I will need to try one someday!
  • @thepeterchannel3230

    I was in Santa Barbara in 2018 and it was a beautiful city

    Historic tip: SB was destroyed by an earthquake and it was rebuilt in the Spanish style to draw in businesses and tourists, much like Solvang.

    I never knew Santa Barbara was such a wonderful place ❤
