Nine years ago, we embarked on an incredible journey, leaving our home in Alaska, USA, behind to explore the world. As teachers, we were fortunate to find amazing opportunities in Chennai, India, where we spent two enriching years. Seeking new experiences, we then made our way to the United Arab Emirates. Just as we were settling into our UAE life, the pandemic struck, but it didn't dampen our spirits. Instead, we saw it as an opportunity for another chapter in our journey. We moved to Indonesia, where we currently hold teaching jobs, and it has been a time of learning, growth, and connection. As a family, we thrive on traveling and embracing the unknown. Adventures are our way of life, and through our experiences, we aim to inspire our children to be confident in meeting new people, trying diverse cuisines, and immersing themselves in different languages and cultures. Our vlogs capture our exciting escapades, and we hope they'll ignite your passion for travel and exploration too! Join us on this thrilling ride as we discover new places, forge unforgettable memories, and create a legacy of wanderlust for our children and all those who follow our journey. Let our travels inspire you to embark on your adventures and discover the beauty and diversity the world has to offer! โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€” 0:00 Grocery Haul 3:44 New House Tour 4:21 Kitchen 5:56 Living Room 7:24 Forest's Bedroom 8:20 Kid's Bathroom 8:51 Cedar's Bedroom 9:37 Basement 11:00 Storage Room 11:23 Subbasement 12:55 Bathroom 13:08 Granite's Room 13:27 YouTube Studio?? 12:26 Master Bedroom 16:21 Prep Work 20:27 American Fast Food โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€”โ€” DISCLAIMER All opinions are our own, and sponsors are acknowledged.
