    I went to my first ren faire in April, it was great! I made our costumes the week before, all hand sewn, and I don’t even actually know how to sew I was almost entirely winging it. It worked out great though! And fortunately our friends were running a booth so we sat with them the entire time. We missed some events but it was overwhelming so just sitting with friends and chatting with new people and being able to browse some booths was fun enough for my first time

    You are so awesome. I went to my first ren fair with a friend from work like 20 years ago near charlotte, NC and got hooked instantly. Then continued going multiple times a year first with my wife ( wasn't her thing ) then with best friends, then with my 5yo son, then with son & younger daughter after my divorce, just completely falling in love with the whole experience. I kept going every year for like 15 years straight all to the same one in Concorde, NC which I would say was pretty big and too much to properly take in in one day bc of all the amazing shows and the jousting would be 3 times daily but all different shows progressing in intensity to the final joust to the death so you kinda had to go to all 3 jousts to get the best experience. anywho, I've been living in another country for the past 5 years with my son and daughter and mother where the ren fair does not exist. Just saw you for the first time ever a few weeks ago and fell in love with your ren fair vids and looked up all of them and made them favs so I can see them all in chronologic order. You have an amazingly authentic and believable feminine elven look which adds so much to your ren fair vids. Don't know how or why the first video of you popped up but I'm so happy it did bc you are the next best thing to actually going to the renaissance festival. I miss going so very much. Sorry for the long comment but I'm just so excited. Thank you so much, please make more !!!!!!!

    I started going to the Ren Faire in 1978 with my mom. The last Faire I went to was in 2014. For me, it went too far acceptable to wear non period or even correct era fantasy outfits, ie LOTR's style. That's me being nostalgic for the OG Agura Hills Faire. I never minded those who were not dressed but I saw Star Wars characters for Peetes sake.. and I love SW but come on.. I do agree that for the most part, everyone is really great to hang with. Just nice people having fun. Btw, you look great with your character.

    For future reference those long billowy products as long as their made of a natural fiber are actually much more cooling then for instance a short sleeve shirt. They keep the sun off your skin which lowers your temperature and wick sweat. I know it seems counterproductive that long sleeves and pants on a hot day would be cool, but it really is cooler so long as it’s a natural fiber.

    well I learned something, I did not know that this even began in CA. Now I know. I've gone to the one in my state (MA) a few times and while I'm big into these, have played D&D since the Red Book, I've never dressed up and never had an issue. I think you can go alone though, I do, I also go on vacation by myself. I am a huge introvert and I still enjoy myself. Every so often I can include myself into things. So to those fellow introverts I say still go, enjoy yourself, it can still be fun. Have you ever been to King Richard's here in MA? I was surprised at just how large it is.

    Ah yes, the sixteenth century in Merry Old England...when knights were bold. What is the attraction of anti-modern settings? We all long for something better. Personally, I am of English decent and when asked the eternal question, "if you were in a time machine, would you go into the past or the future." For me, sixteenth century England would be something to experience.

    "People that go with you can make or break your experience." 100% Yes. Sometimes alone can be good, it can give you more time to check out vendors you like in more details, or check out certain shows you don't normally get to sit and watch.

    I prefer going with other friends who are already into faire. But I do love occasionally introducing friends to the scene if I get to know them and am sure beyond a doubt they will like it. I am doing so this Saturday, actually. I have two friends flying in from two different states to go with me to Colorado Renaissance Festival. I am so looking forward to taking them. I sew, also, and made one of them an outfit. The other, with my guidance, bought his outfit from Medieval Collectibles. This is going to be a Fun weekend.

    I go to three faires every year now, being in TX. Sherwood Forest in McDade, Scarborough in Waxahachie, and TRF in Todd Mission. TRF is the best because you can make a 4-5 day weekend of camping depending on which weekend you go. I have been to the Co Faire good work out up the hill, down the hill, up the hill and back down. I am lucky to be able to make all of my costumes now, I do buy kilts, but my other costumes I have made. I own way too many real swords and knives but they do make the costume. This year will be with my son and brother, my brother and I use to work at Scarborough so it is nice to just shop and watch the shows. Great video!

    I’d love to see a comparison video about what you liked best about various fairs you went to. I live in CA so I’ve only been to irwindale and koroneberg but I’m curious if it’s worth the cost to travel to tx or Maryland or Colorado. At irwindale, We make fairy houses every year it’s so much fun. We love moonie! We always do bungee jumping and zip lines and the dragon swing is really fun after a beer. There’s a lot of good shows. I also think the faeries are wonderful. You can find them wandering around and they are beautiful. I wish there was more water fountains. We always pack water but I feel like we always end up buying extremely overpriced water anyway. We try to eat early or later to avoid lines.

    I'd say go to Salem specifically for the Halloween activities (later than you visited) or visit the area outside of the Halloween activities entirely. I went in the early fall years ago and saw Salem, went to the Peabody Essex Museum, and took the 37 min drive to Concord, MA where Walden Pond is, and Emerson and Thoreau, Louisa May Alcott, and Hawthorne all lived and wrote. It was a wonderful visit.

    There are two types of video failures by amateurs, yours is to focus too tightly on small details. Maybe you didn't have a wide angle lens, but even a phone should have been able to give at least a few broader views of the room. Details are nice, but we can't see how everything looks together.

      I didn't film far away because I couldn't see anything in the room without me removing the palm tree, divider and chairs which blocked everything I created. Also, the details are my favorite part

    The one I’d be going to would be in irwindale. I often wear a fixed blade knife. Would this be an issue?

    7:25 all those "in between activities" are they type that introverted people will enjoy.
