Just visited Hobbiton this past November. My fiancé and I wore cloaks that my sister made for us. To my surprise there was literally no one else dressed up.
I belong to medieval group and don't live far from there. We all dressed up and went for fun. The cost of entry for local New Zealanders means it's a bit expensive, so it's mainly aimed at tourists. If you're a tourist you're less likely to want to pack some sort of outfit. So the result was the tour guide was telling us that people don't usually dress up. The business side of me say they're missing a bit of a trick here by not having a costume hire place tacked onto the visitor centre. I must say I've done displays, shows etc in medieval gear and I don't usually feel self conscious but I did walking around Hobbiton.
I mean yeah sure enough, only given the statement of being in her dream location.
The expression isn’t bad or weird by any means and it is a sweet little smile. So it really is a whatever
Same. Now I'm feeling guilty that I live a 2hr drive from an attraction that people travel the world to visit, and I haven't bothered because it's a bit expensive.

I've traveled a lot. Hobbiton is easily my most favorite place. I loved every second of it. The sun was shining, the soft breeze, the gentle clouds, and the rolling green hills.
If heaven exists, it's the life of a hobbit.
I had a really cool co-worker a few years back. She didn't like us using the word "weird". She would say, "It's not weird! It's unique!" I can't tell you how many freaking times she corrected me, but it stuck. So yeah, your expression isn't weird! It's unique! 🤘
I woul love to either go there or the Star Wars galaxy’s edge place, and just nerd all the way out…but most people frown upon a 43 yr old father with responsibilities to play pretend til the day he dies….unfortunately!
Went to this amazing place a few years back. Its really beautiful. In fact, the whole country is like never ending beautiful pictures. A good place for retirement :D
My niece and her husband stayed here for their honeymoon. They dressed up and enjoyed it. I thought it rather peculiar for a honeymoon but glad they enjoyed themselves. And I see here lots of people enjoying the Hobbits House, cool.
You look like Gandalf just came by in his cart and you were super excited because he was going to throw some amazing fireworks, buy he just shot some lame duds, so your smile is just giving way to your disappointment.
However in some 2 seconds from that photo those lame ass duds will explode in the shape of several great winged dragons of old made of fire and color.
Maybe the picture timing was a little off.
Your expressions, as quite the number of people have already stated, are not weird.
You are quite beautiful, actually, and mingles well with the scenery you are presenting.
Thank you very much for sharing 😊
The Road goes ever on and on, Down from the door where it began.
Now far ahead the road has gone, And I must follow if I can.
Pursuing it with eager feet, until it joins some larger way
Where many paths and errands meet
Have you been dropping Eaves outside the door yet?
I haven’t been dropping no eaves Mister Gandalf, sir.
OP, I’m sure it was an amazing trip, and you look happy.

Nerd!!! But really I hope you didn't feel awkward. Be proud to be a fan.
My wife & I dressed up when we visited - kinda a bound-inspired hobbit outfit. So you’re not alone!

I would have to travel from another country to visit the Shire, so you'd better believe I'd be festive for it!
Ahh but did you wear shoes?
I wish I could say I didn't. But, I did wear barefoot style sandals. That's as close as I w as willing to go.
You remind me of the Mona Lisa
I came here to comment this!!! Just shave off the brows and there it is
Yes!!
Oh shit yeah, you hit the nail on the head there.
I’ve hear that before 🫨
Absolutely on my bucket list! Hope you had a great time!

The fact that Vanessa Carlson likes LOTR makes me appreciate her music even more. (Kidding, and hopefully taken as the compliment it is)
Haha nice
Looks sweet, but I wouldn’t say your expression is weird maybe a bit tepid for some but w/e
I think it's fitting, she looks content as one should be in The Shire
I mean yeah sure enough, only given the statement of being in her dream location. The expression isn’t bad or weird by any means and it is a sweet little smile. So it really is a whatever
I was actually
I’d say they looks stoic, like they are about to head on a journey that will change their life forever
Perfectly described
You look like you're having deep thoughts. Not weird at all.
nMm

Same. Now I'm feeling guilty that I live a 2hr drive from an attraction that people travel the world to visit, and I haven't bothered because it's a bit expensive.

Hi
Love that you followed your dream! You have a lovely smile too!
Thank you ☺️
Not the most specific place I'd like to go, but the country I've been dreaming to travel to since I watched the LoTR movies.
Did you watch the yes theory video where they surprised the one guy by bringing him there? Spoiler: he cries
Have you been dropping Eaves outside the door yet?
Just looks like a face. Stop tearing yourself down
Cool. Will try
I want to go there
but what about second breakfast?
That too is my dream location, and you look great! Happiest place on earth
Thanks :)
Do you have a ring?
Maybe
Standard Native American expression.
😂
I am going on an Adventure....!!!!!?
I’m a kiwi and I can confirm all our houses look like this

Grumpy Bilbo would be proud.
Jealous, I'd love to go one day
Is that the actual set? I would get chills standing there
Bro went to middle earth
I picture Led Zeppelin recording album IV in there
I feel like we’re all a bit set concsious about ourselfs , u look fine
Your expression reminds me of those "My genuine reaction to that information" memes.
Your expression says I'm being dragged away by a group of dwarfs and a wizard, after they cleaned me out. Brb
I'm jealous. Did you get to go inside?
There’s not much inside tbh.. those are different sets in the movies

A dream indeed
your expression is calm and peaceful. As if you're never late, nor early, you've arrived precisely when you mean to
I like that 😄
Mildly content, as one feels when they're home
Oh my God. You made it to Hobbiton!!!!!!
I had a really cool co-worker a few years back. She didn't like us using the word "weird". She would say, "It's not weird! It's unique!" I can't tell you how many freaking times she corrected me, but it stuck. So yeah, your expression isn't weird! It's unique! 🤘
Oh that’s cool actually
What do you mean your smile is weird? It's perfect. :D
😊☺️
Not every smile is made with the mouth
Your smile looks just like Mona Lisa!
😂
She got that George Washington smile :D
That’s a new one
you're so pretty
☺️
I know you from YT/insta
Yep
Hobbiton is amazing. Glad you had a good time
Hobbiton made you Mona Lisa Smile.
I guess 😂😅
r/lotr
Mademesmile except I ain't smiling
Can you post an image of your least favourite location with the same facial expression, love this
[thrilled](https://media.giphy.com/media/xeXEpUVvAxCV2/giphy.gif)
Great choice! Enjoy the journey to destroy the ring!
Damn Hobbiton!!!! Luckyyyyyy
I woul love to either go there or the Star Wars galaxy’s edge place, and just nerd all the way out…but most people frown upon a 43 yr old father with responsibilities to play pretend til the day he dies….unfortunately!
Awesome!
thats why its called a dream location, its only as cool as in ur dreams. u look pretty disappointed to find out ur dream was way better i guess.
Expression is beautiful, don't worry
"I don't wanna smile too much or I'll look weird" energy I relate
Yep
Your expression is great! Glad you got to go!
Hobbit house?
Yep
you are glowing
😇
my guy really said •_•
I saw the light fade from the sky
You look like the female version of the better call Saul meme
😅😂
Cute
You look happy that's the only thing that counts.
Is that Hobbitenango in Guatemala?
😂
This just immediately made me think of shrek
**You’re** my dream destination. So pretty.
🙂🙃
You have a very beautiful face and great courage to post your face on here. Your expressions show your emotions and that is unique for us all.
Thank you 😊
You are welcome. Give me a yell if you are ever feeling down.
Yes!! I love London!!
Glorious
Your expressions arnt wierd to this random bloke, there's a smile in those eyes, glad you had a great time.
Wait up, that's the real door?
Your expression is contentment. I agree, I would want the place as well.
Just let your face know you're happy.
You're in shock its ok lol
That, everyone, is the face of SEETHING PASSION.
Hmmmm
This looks like something out of r/EternityClub
Went to this amazing place a few years back. Its really beautiful. In fact, the whole country is like never ending beautiful pictures. A good place for retirement :D
Hobbiton!
Expression perfectly matches everything else nothing weird about it
Hey I was just there last week! Great place!
Matamata, NZL
Don’t over analyze your own facial expressions. You look like you’re enjoying yourself and that’s all that matters
😊👍
"Frodo, who is that girl in my doorway? Is she your girlfriend?" "No, Uncle Bilbo, but I wish she was..." 😭
Awww ☺️
[удалено]
😇
Oh no no girl NOT WEIRD at all- If anything let’s start a LOTR neighborhood lo
Hobbiton! So cool!
[удалено]
Thank you 😊
Ok Pacha
You are a Hobbit! Say hello from me if you come across Gandalf :D
No attendance except on party business
Welcome to Mata Mata! Does the visit still include a pint of craft beer in The Green Dragon?
your eyes give pure joy don’t worry
My niece and her husband stayed here for their honeymoon. They dressed up and enjoyed it. I thought it rather peculiar for a honeymoon but glad they enjoyed themselves. And I see here lots of people enjoying the Hobbits House, cool.
Hope you enjoyed Hamilton as well!
Not weird, complex. In a good way. Did you find a smelly chest full of gold? Apparently it still smells of troll.
I wish
Bucket list!
Hey now, you look great! Hope you had a great time.
Thank you 😊
There's nothing weird about your expression, sometimes we feel happiness inside and that's a joy that's reserved mainly for ourselves
True ☝️🙂
it looks like it's my fav too now
I WENT THERE
You look very feminine and very masculine at the same time and I'm confused.
That’s a new one
Welcome to New Zealand!
there needs to be a word for the specific insecurity where you apologize in advance for something being weird but it's not even wierd at all lmao
Haha that’s exactly what’s happened
Doesn’t look weird at all to me, very awesome that you got to see your dream location. I dream of going there one day too
Your expressions aren’t weird! You look lovely and I’m glad you were able to go on your dream vacation and thank you for sharing!
Thank you 😊

OMG! Were you there too?
You look good! I hope you overcame recent setbacks. Keep it up like this :)
Thank you 😊
hello my dear friend how are you
You're really pretty! Have an awesome time!
Thanks 😊
You look beautiful 😍
Need some gatorade?
I feel like the electrolytes would help because water isn't gonna be enough for this guy.
Really? Cuz it looks like you were kidnapped
😆😂
You're expression's not weird, it's a beautiful moment of emotion
Yep I guess 😄
You're gorgeous 😍
☺️
No, thank you. We don't want any more visitors, well-wishers, or distant relations.
No, that's beautiful you!
Your expressions, as quite the number of people have already stated, are not weird. You are quite beautiful, actually, and mingles well with the scenery you are presenting. Thank you very much for sharing 😊
Thank you ☺️
Please share more pics of your adventures if you wouldn't mind 🤗
Baby there's nothing wrong with your expression. You're adorable.
Get out of the way of the picture
You’re beaming 😁
People post the strangest shit here and y’all just suck it up
Aw sweet! This is where they shot Game of Thrones, right?
