The two of you,Jazz and Crystal,Max and,Occy and the rest of the van folks are pretty much the only light I have since I lost my wife of fifty years in 2022.That’s when I discovered Jazz and Crystal and then the two of you. I look forward to all of the videos from you all. And I always end them with a smile on my face. I Love all the dogs too.

Anti-Semitic and LGBTQ+ discrimination has exploded across the globe but I’ve learned that the pendulum swings one way and then swings back the other way. Patience and compassion are a powerful virtue and it’s the perfect tool for these uncertain times. Thank you both for sharing.

Talia, there are no words to express the horror of what has happened in Israel, feeling sorrow, concern, and hope you are caring for yourself at this time. I am so sorry.

Tal & Mads ... I've never understood blind hatred nor the taking of a life ... there are no words to express what has happened. Please know there are more of us that live in love and light towards others and I wish you both strength, healing, and peace

Thalia's eye roll after Mads said Tal was the better multitasker and that she (Mads) intended on helping her was so epic I replayed it twice:) 21:38

What an awful mess it is, my thoughts and prayers are with all those affected by the conflict. I hope peace comes swiftly ❤

It is so tragic. Thank you for your kind words. We appreciate you!

So pleased to hear that marriage and children may be in your future. As someone who is a father as well as a partner in a same-sex relationship, I can see that the two of you will be wonderful parents; your children will be blessed. I look forward to witnessing your journey!

I think one of the reason most people make assumptions about who is/isn’t together is representation. Most people have never met a queer person or have any close relationships with folks like us. The fact that you choose to create and show your lives and compassion for other people helps the world see that we are all just people. 🙂 Elias has been transitioning for a little over a year and we went from appearing to the world as a lesbian couple, to a heterosexual couple and that has been a MAJOR adjustment in a lot of ways. Also 100% understand the complexities of starting a family. Thanks for getting deep and sharing who you are ❤️🏳️‍🌈

To Madison: I've previously worked with special needs High School students age 16-24. Best job ever. Talia, I worked in medical records at a hospital for 10 years. NURSES RULE! P.S. I hope for peace ASAP.

In case some of commenters want to disrespect you, I want you to know you have my support. Israel was one of my favorite countries I visited while in the US Navy.

You two are precious and pricelessly adorable!!!❤

I was that girl, "just let me work with that kid." Spent some time at the downtown office as a consultant for other teachers who wanted to help those cool gnarly kids too. Best years of my life. 👋🇨🇦

You two are perfect! Don’t let negative comments from individuals bother you! If people are unhappy in their lives they want others to feel the same way. Pay no mind! I have kids your age and I am very proud of them,as I am sure your family is as proud of you! Keep up the good work,and yes you put a smile on my face with every video!

I think I smiled all the way through this. You two just spread joy! I love how positive you are. Keep being your beautiful selves! The world needs more Tal and Mads! Prayers to all the people of Israel! It’s unimaginable the hate in this world!

Got to know you a long time ago through some other KZread channels/friends... and I love watching your videos every time. You are so happy and joyful to watch. I wish you your own home base soon so you can build from there but you 2 are already killing it.

Thanks for the Q&A openness. Just to give you an idea of the range you reach, I am a 57 year old happily married Brewery Owner in small town Ontario and absolutely love your travels cand adventures. You are the perfect escape one a week. Love you both and keep it going. Can’t wait to see what’s next. We are all so proud of you both. ❤❤❤

What a cool way to do a Q & A! Loved it!

Another wonderful video. Thanks for the Q&A.

You two are adorable young girls! ❤️

Thanks for Sharing!

If all teachers were like you, ugh.... The world would be a better place ❤❤❤

As somebody who hs family and friends in Israel it's been a hard last week. Hope Talia's family and friends in Israel are safe and well. Awesome that you answered so many questions. A great chance to get to know you even better.

I truly appreciate your videos and enjoyed your Q&A. Thanks for sharing a small part of your lives with us . Best of luck with your upcoming adventures. A loyal fan.

I’m heartsick over the devastation in Israel. Keeping everyone in my thoughts. You two give me such joy. Your videos are always engaging, fun and beautifully made. Keep up the great work. We all love you ❤❤❤❤

Hey ladies, nice job in answering all those questions. Maddie, I also failed 9th grade math and had to go to summer school. 9th grade was very hard for me, being bullied cause I was quiet and shy. I ended up drinking a lot but in the 10th grade a new girl came in the school and became my new best friend. She turned my life around and I wanted to live again. She's still in my life and we're in our 50's now. Thank you for sharing your lives with us. I love you and always hope the best for you now and in the future. Love to you both ❤❤

Happy Sunday ladies and Bowie. Thank you for doing this Q&A. I'm a fairly new subscriber so it was nice to get to know you both better. You are in my thoughts and prayers.

I love Costco as well. It’s the best place to shop and I love going there often because they have new things for sale and have discount sales during different times of the seasons.

Loved this Q&A ty! So fun. You two are really inspiring. My daughter & son in-law are Jewish, with family living in Israel. Heartbreaking times. Much love 🩵

I found you two beautiful souls through the Vanwives. In my youth I worked downtown (for 31 years, now 71), and I’ve seen the city grow so much since the 70’s. (Watched them build the CN tower). Glad now I live the rural life a good 3 hours north of the city…. I love watching your channel, it has so much love, light and vibrancy. Bless your hearts. May you be well and the world know peace.

My heart goes out to you and all those others suffering in their different ways during this current conflict. I so hope peace, humanity and common sense will prevail. On a lighter note, I'm with you on Sri Lanka: beautiful place, wonderful people and gorgeous food. Nice show, guys ❤

I really have no words to express the anger and sadness that the fighting between Israel and Hamas brings me. It's like we haven't learned anything from history, so sad. Sending you light and love to help you get through this. Oh, and Tal, I would definitely get your cookbook!

You two are such a breath of fresh air! Patiently waiting for more shenanigans with the Vanwives!! Always wishing you the best!

Great question and answer session. Even better than the last one. During the last week especially, I have had you in my thoughts and prayers. I can imagine that you probably have friends and relatives in Israel Tal, so I've been very concerned. It breaks my heart to hear about the terrible things that have happened. Please know that I support you and Israel one hundred percent.

You two have such warm, uplifting energy and are v sweet together as a couple. I am London, Uk based and also Jewish Talia, with family & friends over in Israel though I personally haven't been there. I've also been extremely shaken and heartbroken by the recent events, the up-turn in antisemitism & the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Praying hard for peace & some kind of resolution to all this.

Same here.... my mom told me to be a nurse as well. Back then I didn't think I was smart enough. Ironically, I went into education. lol. Nursing was a good choice because its rewarding and the pay is great. Educators are sadly underpaid. I rent my property to travel nurses. I love it and they take good care of my home. I just got a membership for Costco but I think im Team Sam's. Okay thirty flirty and thriving. 29 and feeling fine. lol lol LOVE IT. Just met a lady from Sri Lanka while in Belize and she told me to add Sri Lanka to my travel list.
