Great video of aerial views of villages near Madrid, Spain. Very impressive views and vistas of castles and monasteries, including the Monasterio de El Escorial and the Castillo de Manzanares el Real. The mountain range Sierra de Guadarrama is also highlighted with impressive topography and a network of hiking trails. This whole area is worth a visit!
Here's an interesting introduction to Helsinki, Finland. Clearly shot on a gorgeous and warm sunny day, our Finnish female host guides us through the nation's capital, mostly focusing on the activities that locals do on a daily basis. There's not very much history or actual travel or tourism information - it's almost more of a lifestyle video, but still makes for a short, fun watch.
Here's a very tranquil look at kayaking (or canoeing?) through Kolovesi National Park in eastern Finland. The water, land and forest seems so raw and unspoiled, and fits the music selection perfectly. The craggy cliffs at the water's edge and the apparent lack of any other people are huge highlights!
Here's an interesting concept - a point of view drive and excursion through London, England. Passing by Big Ben (Clock Tower) then driving along Westminster, I found it quite unusual to listen to London news radio while in the car - this little detail made it for a very realistic experience!
Here's a video of Venice, Italy, purportedly showing it as the locals see it, without all the tourists. Indeed this clip does meander through local neighbourhoods, including Venice's famous canals, small streets and bridges. The Venetian architecture is really quite fantastic, and it's always a joy to hear my wife's stories of living in this part of Italy.
