David Burnip - aka The Wandering Turnip
Well, I knew nothing of The Wandering Turnip until I encountered him on Thelma's "North Stoke" blog that currently comes to us from Todmorden, West Yorkshire. This also happens to be The Wandering Turnip's home town.
The Wandering Turnip - whose real name is David Burnip - likes to visit rather obscure places with his selfie stick and drone, creating YouTube videos of his travels. He also brings to those videos his innate curiosity and his enthusiasm for simply being alive. Sometimes he meets local people and sometimes he recites poetry. There is a charming and engaging innocence about David's delivery.
As a wanderer myself, I also sometimes feel like a turnip so I find it easy to relate to David Burnip. He could easily be a younger version of myself. Please see below two YouTube videos that exemplify his explorations...

In David's wake, I may become The Rambling Parsnip. Visit The Wandering Turnip's YouTube site here.
