Welcome to Truro – Cornwall’s only city, and England’s most westerly city! Join me for this one-off stream so that I may say thank you for subscribing to my sister channel (link below). I launched it in May, and it got to monetisation in about eight weeks. This wouldn’t have happened without your support.
I’m on the fence as to whether to continue to livestream or focus solely on pre-recorded videos from now on. Either way, all going to plan (Streamlabs, behave!), I’ll give you a live in-field history talk about Truro and, by extension, Cornwall, as well as discuss the future of virtual tours…

ABOUT MY LIVE TOURS
My name is Alex, a.k.a. 4K Explorer, and here are the basics behind my live walking tours:
1. TIPPING
My live tours are completely free of charge. If you would like to support my work financially, there are 2 options:
Option 1. Tips in chat – below the chat box is a rectangular icon with a $ sign. If you click this, you can leave a tip of any denomination, starting from £1/$1 etc. In return you get a highlighted comment (Super Chat) or a premium emoji (Super Sticker).
Option 2. Buy me a coffee (or in my case, tea)… as it stands, I’m 30 pence away from being allowed make the minimal withdrawal!! – https://www.buymeacoffee.com/alexingb
Option 3. Paypal – https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/4kexplorer
All donations are extremely gratefully received, and allow me to offer more tours further afield.
2. SCREENSHOTS
To take several screenshots (or postcards, if you will) on this tour, there is a plug-in which you can install via the following link – https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/screenshot-youtube/gjoijpfmdhbjkkgnmahganhoinjjpohk?hl=en
This works for Google Chrome. After installing, then restarting your browser, simply hover your mouse over the bottom of the YouTube video where the word ‘Screenshot’ appears, then left click. This automatically saves an image to your computer’s Downloads folder. You can access this quickly by pressing CTRL+J on Windows whilst Chrome is open. You can also customise the plug-in so that pressing the ‘P’ key takes a screenshot. Just go to Extensions (right of the browser’s address bar) — Screenshot Youtube — the 3 vertical dots — Options. Any images are completely free to share on social media!
3. FUTURE TOURS
To ensure you don’t miss out on future live walking tours, click the notification bell (below the 4K Explorer channel banner on the right hand side. Then click ‘ALL’. Alternatively, you can have a browse at my upcoming tours via the LIVE tab (3rd from left after HOME and VIDEOS). Clicking through to a specific tour will allow you to receive individual notifications via the button that says ‘Notify me’
4. AND FINALLY
Feel free to tap that ‘Like’ button. It helps me broaden my magnetic pull, and it will give you seven years of good luck! (well, maybe)
