FLYING WITH TWO CATS - Van Life Travelers Move To Europe
FLYING WITH TWO CATS [Van Life Travelers Move To Europe]
Snow and Curt have been traveling all across The Americas in their Camper Van and with their two cats for almost 5 years. The jouney in The Americas is over and it is time for these full time travelers to move to Europe. Their tiny house on wheels is already on board a cargo ship and on its way. In this video, the 2 humans and the 2 cats, Vanna and G Money, will make the long flight across the Atlantic Ocean from Buenos Aires to Paris.
Snow and Curt did a lot of research and decided that for this long flight, putting the cats in the cargo hold (instead of flying in the cabin) was the best decision. Snow explains why in the video... and they take you along for the entire journey. From leaving their airbnb, to checking the cats in at the airport, the long flight, and... finally... retrieving the kitties in Paris. It was an anxious and nervous time, but as always, Snow and Curt show you the good, the bad, and the in-between!

Love you guys and your adorable furbabies! All will be well! See you all on the other side of the world! Blessings, Jojo😗
Just think Snow. I don’t know of it’s been a year or more. You were told you were very ill. You have come full circle. Look at you … You look great and onward to Europe! ❤❤❤❤❤
Dear ones, Finally I can welcome all 4 of you to MY continent: WELCOME to EUROPE ❤ I want you to know how proud I am of you and the kitties: you put yourself to the test with this travel across the Pond - but you made it. Snow, I admire your administrative/packing/arrangeing-skills 🏆 And Curt, your reflections upon your vanlife journey was amazing. I cried watching this video: being along with you for so long, make everything so emotional - and I know I'm not the only one. Thousands and thousands of people from allover the World, follow you and we care so much about you. Now rest and land on your feet in France. Don't miss PROVENCE and Gorge du Verdon (The grand canyon of Europe) and be my guest if you arrive in Denmark. Safe journey. Take care. Love and greetings from Camilla ☀️
Snow and Curt, I wept through this entire video! My heart goes out to you, I would be bawling for sure leaving the kitties but, I am so happy that Air France, that crew in particular, were just wonderful! Snow, you look exhausted so please take time to rest, that was an arduous journey, I was certainly thinking of you all Wednesday and I am glad to see you on the ground in France! This was an amazing video, you guys are an amazing couple! And the kitties are celebrities too!💕🙏🏼🇨🇦

Well I had my heart in my mouth during that video (only half an hour for me, but 18 hours for you. I worried the whole time for you Snow, if my heart was stressing your's must have been too. Thank you for telling us about everything you did for the kitties and letting us know how sure you were with you decisions. Now take a deep breath and enjoy your time in Paris, and please PLEASE make sure you get the rest you need. And thank you Curt for always being there for Snow, I can see how much you care about Snow and the kitties and that means the world to us. 💖💖

Happy all is well. Now comes the sticker shock of being in Europe. Rest up Snow. Hugs
Once again, I have cried this entire video. Don't know why. Thank you so much for explaining what happens to animals when they fly. I really thought they would be down below freezing but I knew there's no way you would let that happen. I know this is delayed a bit so I pray you both have rested up. The one thing I know is that nothing can stop your love for each other or the love you both have for the kitties. LOOK OUT EUROPE...two finer people you will ever meet have arrived.
We're in Europe!!!! The kitties are fine! You Snow, take care of yourself. New adventure! Cheers!
OK I love that the pilot took a photo. LOVE THAT!
This made me cry,I have never been out of the country.I am a full time caregiver for my husband,so I really do live vicariously through you two....and I love my fur babies,thank you for all you share with us❤❤
I cried with you through this. You took such great care, so much love. Welcome to Europe.
As a cat lover I was so relieved to see they are well. Looking forward to following your journey in Europe.
What an excellent video! You two are masters at videography and Curt giving a narrative of travel in the Americas was fantastic. How sweet for the Air France flight captain to take a picture of the kitties 🐈⬛ that was awesome. Being so kind to the flight attendants and giving them candy helped also. I believe in that because they will treat you well and they did go the extra mile. Snow your research is awesome. I love my cat 🐈 as much as you love your fur babies and I love that about you two. Yea, welcome to France! ❤️👍 🇫🇷
You are both so calm and so together…beautiful trip and memories… glad you are sharing your travels with us…
I love going to hotels with my cat! ❤
If you can travel with two cats, three suitcases, packs and other carryons, any family can move with pets on long haul flights. Happy touchdown and ongoing adventurous journey. You he's the heart 💞 looking back and remembering those special people, places and unexpected events you have gone through. Non voyage. God bless. 🙏
Glad that you and the kitties arrived safe and sound ❤😊
So happy your all back together and safe! 🐈🐈⬛🤗💖
I’m glad your kitties were safe when they traveled and you get to be with them I’m glad you guys had a safe flight
I was crying through the whole video!!! I want to give you guys a huge hug, and wish you some great Europe adventures!!!
The airline was awesome with your fur babies and doing everything the could to make you feel better. Now everyone can rest up together.
loved the video. so much love and concern ,for the kittys . when you all met up ,i had tears of joy xx
Well done putting them in the cargo hold. I’ve flown my cats & dogs from Canada to Australia (28 hours) without any issues. The head vet in Australia said that animals do very well travelling. ♥️♥️♥️. Enjoy your rest & adjusting to the new time zone.
Such hard work getting everything and everyone ready, traveling, and getting to rest at the hotel in Paris. So glad all went as well as it could.
Welcome to Europe!! I'm from Portugal, I'm so happy that you have finally arrived ❤! I was so worried about the plane travel, I knew how much you would worry about your babies. Glad to see them well in the hotel inspecting their surroundings! You love your kitties and everyone can see it. ❤

They re very xenophobic in Portugal. Beware.
I have seen lots of people traveling with their animals. It's not uncommon. Snow and Curt have always taken very good care of their kitties making sure they get their exercise by taking them on walks and letting them explore to satisfy their natural curiosity. I just wonder how the cats would feel about being abandoned by their family if they followed that advice. Your animals are family and should not be left behind. I'm sure they make the best decisions regarding the kitties at all times from what I've seen watching their videos. I understand the concern of some people for the kitties moving around all the time , but just by watching their videos you can see they take every precaution possible. The cats do not seem that they are stressed more than usual. So please don't make nasty remarks about how they are handling things. Thank you Snow and Curt for all the adventures!!!! Good luck for the future.

Pam here…love the ‘candy bags and notes to airline people’ and so kind of the pilot to go and take a pic of them…I would have been a bawling mess!! But sounds like G did good, being able to eat, pee and poop inflight is great.

You can’t beat Air France. Period. They are the best!!! Just a suggestion. In Europe you may not want to stand out as ‘Americans’. Don’t wear tshirts with logos, don’t touch everything in the shops/stores. Don’t wear baseball caps. If you do, you set yourself up for scorn and pickpockets. Stay safe. Be smart. Wear a mask! COVID, RSV and pneumonia are cycling very high right now, especially in Europe. Snow, with your health issues, please be smart. Be safe.
Best Flight Attendants Ever!!! Wonderful Snow you can relax and enjoy the flight ! God Bless you both!!!
So happy you are all there safe and sound. Get some rest and some kitty snuggles. :)
Bonjour Snow and Curt ☀️ Wow, what an emotional video. I can only imagine how difficult that was for you both to release the care of your kitties to a big airline and hope they treated them well. I'm happy to see both Vanna and G-mony survived their transatlantic flight and that you all have made it to Europe safely. Very happy to hear you say that you were going to take a break for a couple of days. Snow, while you were busy worrying about the kitties, you were starting to look a bit "peaked". I know that Curt will make sure you behave and rest 😉 but please remember to take care of yourself. I know we're technically strangers, but we worry about you 💙 So excited for you both to start the next chapter of your journey on this new continent. Enjoy your break, stay safe. À bientôt 🤗🇨🇦
Thank you for being honest about your travel experience, especially with your kitties.

Always!
Thank goodness you guys and the kitty's made it safely. I was so happy to see when the two carriers came out of the luggage ramp and then you could open the carriers and pet them.
First off, congrats on arriving overseas! Really enjoyed this episode... Anxiety, stress, impatience, relief, elation! You guys did a fantastic job of chosing the airline and doing everything you could for the cats! And if any cats would be as prepared as possible, its yours. They are used to motion and the sounds of being on the road, might have helped a bit. Kurt, the way you summed up from how you get started and arrived here, that was beautifully said.
Another favorite video. Love how you love and care for your kitties. Love how kind and interested you are to everyone you meet. Love the look backs and the understandings of the past 5 years . I’m very excited about the European adventure.
Hello you wonderful braves 🩵💗👣👣🐈🐈⬛. So glad you flew Air France 🇫🇷 ✈️ What a marvelous relief for you over the kitties 😊🎉🎉😊. Welcome to Europe & wishing you a wonderful experience on your travels. Bless the wee furries & all will be so happy to be together with mummy & daddy. Rest well Snow you will readjust for it. Curt am so relieved for you all. Rest rest rest & big hugs from Elizabeth 🏴🇬🇧
OMG this was a tearjerker start to finish! I had been kind of dreading this video because I knew it would be so hard watching the kitties go through this, and I worried about the stress of leaving them on Snow’s heart. I was so happy to see them again at the end, and especially to see them out of their cages in their hotel room. I know this was such a hard decision for you to put them in the belly. But I knew you would research everything and pick the best way for them. I loved how the flight attendants were so caring about it, and the captain going down to take their picture was amazing!
If we didn’t care so much, there would not be any tears so let it flow. Love you guys.
How wonderful that your family is together. I cried along, tears of sadness and tears of Joy. God bless you both. Enjoy life❤
I'm with you on crying when leaving the kitty cats......Wow what adventures are on the horizon for you all. Love It!
Tears of joy for the four of you. Sleep well and get rested for this new leg of your adventures!!! You did it!!
I cried with you Snow as you left the kitties in the hands of the baggage loaders. Like you my kitties are my world.
Beatiful text from Curt. Would love to read a book from you two. Enjoy Europe.
I knew how well Snow would prepare to make as sure as possible that the flight to Paris was as easy on the cats as it could be. Those two kitties are seasoned travelers. They've been in some tough situations that stressed their humans. They've visited many temporary 'homes' with Curt and Snow. I bet they weren't very anxious on that plane ride. Nobody likes long plane rides. Well done, humans!
I was feeling the butterflies just imagining what you must be experiencing! So happy all is well. What an amazing new time for you. 🎉❤
Loved that the captain took a picture of the cats!!
Yes 🎉 you made it and the kitties are ok❤take care of yourselves and get some good rest. We love you Kirt and Snow - Vanna and G Money ❤🎉 🐈
Your cats have a special place in your 💕 hearts. Understandable the feelings of trusting, leaving them in the care of others you don't know. But God is Great. Blessings to all.
Wow....what an incredible Journey you 4 have endured!! All of you need time to rest.. CONGRATULATIONS on making it to your new adventure ❤
Seeing your gorgeous house was fun! Seeing you live life on your terms couldn’t never replace anything that stays in one place! Love it!
Wow you two plus your kitties are very brave!!! I'd probably be some crazy lady until that plane landed and we rested at the hotel...wow!!! Bravo!!! I trust your travels will be safe and wonderful!
That was pretty cool that the airline gave you peace of mind by showing you the cats are safe. It looks like they slept through the flight ✈️. I’m so happy that your babies are safe and sound. Enjoy your next adventure I can’t wait to see what next
Great video! I think I am caught up with all your videos on your channel. I can’t wait to see your next adventure. I know with you guys we will see Europe differently than most travelers. Wishing you both good luck on this new journey.
What a amazing prep and pack and now your babies can cuddle with you! Still the loving Vanna and G!!
My prayers are answered... You all made the trip safely. Love you all. Blessed be. 💜😻💜
Rest well, my friends and give the kitties a kiss for me. They did an awesome job
I bet the kitties had to potty so bad!!!😊 I'm so glad y'all made the trip safely!
That bed must have felt so good for the 4 of you to cuddle in for a few days. Snow & Curt - enjoy the blessings coming your way for a gracious life. Cheers 🥰🥰🇨🇦
Obrigado pela visita ao Brasil, e a aventura de vocéis é nossa aventura também. A coragem e o entusiasmo que nos mostram só me faz crer como a TERRA é uma dádiva de Deus e como existem pessoas boas neste pequeno planeta perdido no Universo. Parabéns e que novas aventuras se façam presentes aqui ...
kindness and care always gets rewarded
Even though it was very tough, you’re so much better prepared to do these things now after all your experience in travelling around the Americas. You need a lot of rest as you transition to a new continent. Rest up, and on with the journey ❤❤
How kind of the crew to take the photos for you and help quell your fears about them being on board! Kindness is met with kindness. Walk in peace guys, can’t wait to see Europe with you!
I’m so exited for you! I’m almost crying…what joy! Stay safe and TRUST!
Oh guys, I was crying when you were leaving Vana and G. My husband and I are a little older than you two, and we also have two kitties, they are our only children so I understand the heartache involved. I am amazed just remembering all I have seen through your eyes. I started watching when you were in Mexico. It has been such an excitement that I always look forward to. I am grateful for you both in my life. Watching you leave was hard, I felt like I was saying goodbye to an old friend. I especially loved Columbia and Brazil. And when you arrived in Europe I was excited for you and could feel the fatigue roll off of you Snow. You are such a strong woman, and Curt had to be exhausted, Loaded for bear heading to and from airports. So proud of how you take care of your family, Good on you you're a beast dude! I hope you are all resting peacefully. I can't wait to go on this adventure with you. Cheers for now, Pam.❤☮
Thank goodness all that worry is over and your fur babies are ok. I almost found it as tough as you did!❤
You two are too much! So kind and loving to your cats and also the airline officials.I had tears in my eyes when I saw the photo of the cats in cargo. My cat and I are headed to Argentina from Arizona on Tuesday, and I will be thinking about you both. I loved hearing your story, Curt and Snow. "Cool places in the space in-between there." This is the best lesson ever, to go off the beaten path.
Strongest two whipper-snappers on the planet. That was hard.❤🐱❤🐱
I teared up with you, seeing you leave the kitties at the airport 😢 very clever to bring a gift for the crew ❤
You guys impress me with your attention to detail and organization! So glad all went well.
Whoohoo. You all made it safe and sound and now Christmas time in Europe. Europe does wonderful Christmas markets and decorations and food and drink…..So happy to see you all in your hotel room, kits out of their carriers. I am very impressed with the Air France flight crew. Cheers.
So glad you all arrived safely! Excellent planning, for all of these complex issues ! Looking forward to the adventures in Europe!.
Wonderful that you have made the journey all 4 safe and sound! Rest up and relax now that the hard part is over. Thanks for taking us along on your adventures.
I hope you gave yourselves lots of recovery time. I flew to Paris with a friend back in 2003, 11-hour flight, and we were only in Paris 6 days. I finally adjusted to the time change the day before we had to fly back home. Snow, I started bawling when you reached in for Vanna. I didn't realize I was feeling so anxious about those two fur babies! And Europe - so proud of you both for going for it! I know you'll get your stride. Go easy on yourselves and take each day as they come. Blessings! You two are amazing - and so are your traveling kitties!
So glad yall made it safe with your fur babies too, get that test you need and looking forward to watching yalls video contents and new journey as well. Sending lots and lots of love hugs and prayers daily to yall too 🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️🤗❤️🙏🕊
So happy everyone was safe. Take time to relax and refresh ready for the next chapter of your journey.
Glad to see you and the kitty's have made it to your new country. I am looking forward to your videos from your new county, but of course be sure you get some rest. God Bless🙏
Yea!! So glad everyone made it safely across the pond! Can't wait for the European adventures!!
I'm so happy all went well getting over to Paris. I love you two, Snow and Curt....everytime Snow cries, it makes me cry. THANKS😢😢😢😢😂😂😂😂😂❤❤❤❤❤LOVE All your vlogs a forever fan.
We know you would do what’s best for the kiddies. Thanks for explaining the ends and outs of it. Keep entertaining us.❤
I felt stressed over the cats- can’t imagine how you must have felt. So exited to see you in Europe.
Hi friends! I am here, crying like Snow, willing the cats are alright. I am at 18:55m of the video, and crazy to get to the end of it and see if everything is fine... I love your story and the way Curt tells us. Good lucky !! Everything is going to be very good!!❤❤❤❤
You are an incredible couple! So happy you and the kitties made it to your first European destination and all is well. Take time to relax after all the stresses of the past months of this planning. ❤

I was praying several weeks ago about y’all’s trip and about the kitties so very thankful that it all worked out. Love your videos take care and God bless.
I'm crying🐾❤️😻 Love the thoughtfulness to detail regarding your furbabies. Especially the candy gifts and notes with pics from the kitties. You two humans are awesome. Safe fun travels to all 4 of you🥰
Oh I want to see so much more!! It was like really traveling with you. My heart was aching until I saw you cuddling G. Please rest, rest, rest. Build yourselves back up for this next wonderful journey in Europe. Can’t wait, though, to see you again❤️
I could not have done it. I was crying with you. 😢
I would have cried having to leave the cats behind like that too. It sounds like it was better for them to have the full space of the carrier. That's awesome they took a picture of the kitties for you. Awww 🥰
What an absolutely awesome journey, I've enjoyed following you through the Americas and look forward to watching your adventures in Europe. Good luck!
I’m so amazed and proud of how you made this big move. I know it’s not done yet but take time to restore. Your bodies will thank you. ❤
WOW! That was some trip for both of you and your fur babies. I appreciate that you are honest about how the kitties travelled and how worn out you may feel just getting to France. Take the time to adjust and then look ahead because travelling, in a van, in Europe I think will be very different than North and South America. I’ve been to Italy and France only and loved them both but I have to admit they weren’t the friendliest people. Can’t wait to explore Europe with you and see all the sights. Stay healthy and safe travels. Hello from Canada 🇨🇦
I was crying with Snow. So glad all landed safely, three cheers to Air France. Looking forward to this next adventure 😊.
So happy you and the fur babies made it there safely get some much needed rest ❤❤❤❤
You both look different (better) from the beginning of your journey. That's great.most people do the opposite. I'm glad you and fur babies all are together again. Please rest and take care of yourself Snow. Curt, thank you for being such an awesome partner. Seeing you going through the airport, with a laser point focus on getting to the babies was heartwarming. I'm glad all is OK. Stay well❤🩷🐈⬛🐈
I'm glad everything worked out fine. Very emotional video. Love the little recap Curt did for us!! Enjoy Europe now!!
Love to you and the kitties. Hope you are pacing yourselves. Take care❤
So glad the kitties made it ok!
So happy and relieved that the entire family made it safe and sound to Europe. Was holding my breath and praying that you would be safe.❤
Am praying all goes well U guys are so awesome Kitties will be fine.Bless u much love and light.
Welcome to Europe! You are going to love it here. I hope you gave yourself a full day of rest. The kitties will eventually forgive you if they haven´t already. The plane staff treated you and the cats so well because you treated them well too, don´t forget the part you play in that. I saw the plane flew over my part of Spain, Galicia and hope you come here soon. I know first hand the amount of planning and stress involved in such a mood. The pill for my dog didn´t put her to sleep in the end and I promised her we wouldn´t have to do this again.
Glad you guys and kitties are safe. Get rest for now.
Oh! I lived in Orlando for 10+ years! Can't wait to see your European journey ❤
Welcome to Europe to you and the kitties. You will have a great time here. Lots of adventuresxx
