What a lovely, humble, and genuine couple. Stay blessed.

The love that you share with each other and the joy, fun, excitement and positive energy put forth in each video is in my opinion, what makes it so special and attractive to watch.

Thanks George! We have a lot of fun putting these videos together and it makes us happy you notice something special about them.

I love how transparent you guys are! Looking forward to your next trip!

Hey guys! It was so great to hear a bit more about y'all! The story about the boots had me a lil teary eyed, that is dedication and you guys deserve everything coming your way! Cheers 🍻

So interesting. Thanks for sharing. Never stop the wonder.

it was so cute seeing you two laughing with each other as you answered the questions. it's been great to see your channel grow & i hope it continues to!!

This was a great video. I have a lot of respect for you guys hearing about your work ethic and the sacrifices that you have made to get things moving with your channel. I am having a hard time believing that you are both in your early twenties. You both seem so mature. I hope that your sharing about this will bring in more support for your channel on Patreon.

Hey just saw your video! I totally can relate to the lonely not being able to connect with other creators as I am growing. I am also on KZread. I loved your Egypt content hoping to go there soon. Hope to run into you guys one day I love Chattanooga been twice before. I always road trip from Florida. I am actually heading up to Memphis end of April.

Hey Sarah! Glad you can relate. KZread is a difficult and wonderful job. Keep in touch! Sadly we’ll be leaving for for country #9 before the end of April.

Don't worry about when to have children it will happen when the time is right. My husband and I were married nearly 10 years before we had our son(planned pregnancy). Who has been such a blessing.

Your Q&A video was terrific. I always like watching your travel videos because the quality is so professional. A good travel video captures the different cultures as well as the uniqueness of the country’s landscape. But most of all the video must be very professional, which your videos are!

Bodvar it’s been wonderful receiving your comments recently. Thanks for supporting what we do consistently.

I usually don’t watch Q&A vlogs, I do like learning about how you afford to travel and buy a house. I know the prices of houses etc in TN is about half what it costs here in California, my brother lives in TN as well. I love the prices in TN, but my kids and now granddaughter live here. So I’m not moving anytime soon, at least not out of California. I think it’s great how you get to go home base once in a while, I’m sure the comfort of home is relaxing. Even with your house under construction, it’s nice just to be close to family. Anyway, thanks for answering so many good questions about how you do what you do. So keep on trucking, I look forward to your travels. If you do ever decide to start a family, be sure your ready to not be able to travel as much. As my daughter learned, you can’t just jump up and say let’s go here or there etc anymore at least not for a while. Kids turn your lives upside down, I never thought I’d have kids. Much less 3 kids, you just never know. Lol. Stay safe, have fun . Most of all, thank you for sharing your experiences 😊🌺

We know having kids will drastically change our lives, so when the time comes we’ll make sure we’re ready for it. Tennessee certainly is cheaper than California, but California is such a wonderful place as well. Glad you enjoyed this Q & A and looking forward to updating you on the house.

Typically don’t watch q&a videos, but this was great! By far my favorite KZreadrs.

We're a full time travel couple and found you guys through your tiny van build! We do seasonal work to afford to travel but One day we hope to progress to international travel. Love watching y'all's adventures, you're so informative and unlike a lot of other KZreadrs i feel like you guys are truly doing all you can to learn about the culture of the countries you visit

You two are amazing since the beginning, love you both 💕

I love your channel 💞 you're 💯 real thank you ❤️

Thank you for sharing. I really look forward to your videos. Can relate to the "being raised frugally" and I also saved all of my birthday and grduation money to buy a house or land.

I predict success. You guys are awesome, such a humble couple. I can see that you love what you’re doing. ✌️ & love❤

you're such a lovely couple , I am so glad KZread put you in my suggestion list. stay strong and stay ❤️.

I’m very impressed by how confident you all are. It takes a lot of courage to share with us ! Keep up the great work

Just had the pleasure to watch you for the first time today and see the journey you've made from van life to international travel in a carry on. Amazing how well you are able to save and spend it on the right things. I haven't even seen all the countries you've been to but just the little snippets here of how you were pushed out of your comfort zone made me realise just HOW MUCH you've done already :O insane! This will definitely be a thing of a lifetime for you :3 I got to your channel through your "carry on travel" video. Seeing it after our 2 week holiday in Japan backpacking it reminded of our fun times. It was really refreshing to spend so much time together with my partner :3 you must have loads of fun!

We love the dynamic between you two - you're such a cute couple! It's really great to get to know the two of you a bit better through this video. You've had some great adventures! You're our kind of people! No idea what that first picture was of, but we've both got our minds in the gutter 😂

👏🏼👏🏼 great video. Hopefully you guys stay as transparent when you guys make it really big

Oof, I appreciated this video. Sharing your revenue with us was really kind, and definitely makes it feel like travel is much more accessible. Honestly, this has me thinking about ways in which I can budget better to have the sorts of experiences you two have.

You better have kids-you’re going to be the best parents!!!! Loved revisiting the bits in van. It’s all about the food. And your videos have always been amazing. Totally love you guys, you are so adorable.

Your videos make me smile. And for the lucky fans that has been there since the beginning, it's been lovely seeing your progression as travel content creators. I'm going to take a stab and guess you're going to Sweden?

You two are so sweet together! I enjoyed your question and answer video. One question that wasn’t answered that I’m curious about is did ever feel nervous about living/traveling in the van during the Covid-19 pandemic? And are you ever nervous about traveling abroad now while the Covid-19 pandemic is still ongoing?

Love you guys, big fan here. Hope you’ll visit Morocco one day. You were born to be together and I love that. God Bless

Just watched your Cappadocia blog which got me here and subscribed. You guys are so positive. And so adventurous for so ones so young. I love it. We are pushing 60 and love to travel. My hubby laughs that I'm a little bohemian lol Another year of work and we can really hit the road. Our August trip is for 2 months. Greece, Croatia and Turkey. You talked about budget. This trip started with a budget and has turned into what budget. Lol Happy, safe travels to you both.

Wow, I can only dream of having such a beautiful partnership like you two have. Truly inspiring.

I wish happiness , health and a lot of trips 😀👌

I been following you guys since your Peru travel, im looking forward for your travel here in southeast asia like, Bali, Thailand and Philippines i wish its included on your bucket list.

INCREDIBLE, u2 r so ahhhsum🥰🥰

Hi Chad and Claire! We love watching your videos. Your polar plunge video in Finland got us into Wim Hof. We noticed you loved Vermont on your road trip. If you ever want to come back, come stay with us! We'll show you all around. Toodles! Love, Anne, Abigail, Clare, Charlie and Samuel (ps - our parents let us write this!)

We are pretty sure we know where you are going!! Our fave country so far (we travel full-time). We are stopping there for a day (Zanya’s birthday) on our way the The Philippines 🎉🥳

I’m new to your channel but I’m hooked and loving it. I agree about Asians being wired by parents to live frugally. That’s how I grew up. My American husband was not but I have pulled him into it. We’ve been blessed with wonderful careers that we now are able to spend some perks like traveling well and eating at expensive restos. But for our retirement, van life doesn’t sound bad at all.

You both are just to cute! (Me and my wife are always spending our holiday in the Luberon (Roussillon)

Hi , love your channel 💕❤️. Continue your beautiful blessed journey . Question ❓ How are you afford Healthcare ?

Just started watching a few months ago. ima tent camping out of thy Miata.on my way to Death Valley right now. east coast to Dallas, Lubbock, Cadillac Ranch, 4 corners, Zion, LA , San Fransisco, up the CA from LA to RedWoods NP, Donner pass, on to DV, and then thaw way back home. if you think the van was small, LOL. I'll be out close to a month.

Looking forward to one day you guys would have enough subscription and views, keep it up

my loves!!

🙌 Great Q&A guys! We recently subbed and have been enjoying the content! If y'all ever make it to Nashville, let us know! We would love to connect! Or maybe we'll cross paths in our travels!😊 Safe travels y'all!

I have 4 kids with #5 on the way. In some ways, you can continue your life if you want to, kids or no kids. You can homeschool. But at the same time, there is the realism of it. You'll go a lot slower, plane tickets cost way more, you have more luggage, your kids will be antsy when you're trying to look at boring things. It is harder. We almost never travel though, not because of our kids. There's a youtube channel called Worldschool or something who travels a ton with like 7 kids or something.

Success if defined by your happiness and not your net worth (as in $$). Why? Because that is what everyone is eventually seeking in life. So, by that definition you are both multi-millionaires. It takes plenty of courage (and unbelievable ego suppression) to openly declare your income when it is considered very modest (euphemism) by 'American standards'. The very fact that you guys have no problems sharing your 'faults' and perceived shortcomings (in this and earlier videos), I think you are both ideal role models on how others can successfully pursue happiness and lead a fulfilling life - no matter their circumstances. BTW, about that money thing - I think you guys will make a lot of that too in the not-so-distant future because you are so detached from it. And I am sure you will help a lot more people when that time comes as well. Stay blessed!

Wow. What a kind comment and thank you! We try hard to not make money the focus of our lives and treat it more as a tool that can help us achieve our personal goals. We really do believe happiness is a choice, especially when we have health and family that loves us on our sides. Overall we are just so grateful to be doing what we're doing. Thanks for leaving your comment. It made our night!

Hi Chad and Claire. Do you have plans of visiting the Philippines? By the way, thank you for your videos of Peru. It's very useful for our planning for our own trip next month.

You guys radiate so much positive energy . love it 😊. If you guys really want to drastically increase subscribers please go to Bali and make content . Good luck for all your future endeavors.

When you go to trips do the Trip vlogs going to airport get in to the plane flight food etc....do it as a first episode of your trip and show your hotel ..tooo
