    I was gonna ask how your travel is funded. Even though i see that you do travel frugally, which is good. But i heard you say something about your brother taking over your business. So now I understand the funding for your travels. I work for a major airline. So I travel 2 or 3 times a year for vacation. Love it. I haven't seen you guys do anything from Mexico which is where im from.

And this past summer we just went to Belize and we LOVED it. I’m going back to college for graduate school, but we plan to travel a lot more (maybe eventually full time) later in life ❤️🤗🤗 also- you guys are the ones that finally convinced me to start a CZcams channel: ReeseandJoeVlogs

    Irony: Saying it's easy to wear the same outfits all the time because when you're traveling around the World 🌎 no one knows you're always wearing the same clothes each day....and you're filming Vlogs to put on CZcams where everyone around the world 🌎 sees you wearing the same clothes all the time! lol! 😂🙃😉 (not the ones you're interacting with that day, but later, yes) Of course we don't care if it's the same clothes though because you guys look great and you're entertaining us while showing us the World!

    We're in the content distribution business and by watching all your videos, I think you guys can one day re-assemble all your footage and make it a TV series and sell it worldwide for all platforms. We have been buying similar shows for various territories and since you own the copyright to your footage, can be quite lucrative!

  • @bord141
    @bord141 Před 8 lety +52

    It's awesome seeing you guys traveling and living the dream. But, lets be honest, still having a business back home to provide constant income helps you guys to keep living the dream. Slightly misleading by 'saving' up to travel where most of us couldn't pull the plug and do what you guys are doing. Not hating, just seeing it for what it is. Keep the videos coming!

    • @codebeat4192
      @codebeat4192 Před 5 lety +7

      That's why we need a basic income and not only focus on work all the time because we need an income to feed the bills instead of ourselfs, family, experiences, learning, you don't get paid for this however VERY important. Everything important in life is underpaid or not paid. Are we on earth to work until we die or are we on earth to live? The problems of money is made by humans not by nature.
      The endless requirement of money is created by humans. This couple pay taxes only for the things they use, very fair if you asked me. It really shows the problems of our stupid (tax) system for endless requests for things you don't use, it is possible only when you travel. When you travel you can make the decision what to do or do not to do, in 'real' live you can't, rules! This couple did a great job to discover freedom, real freedom, the same you will get when there was a basic income, to free the minds of the frozen thoughts, frozen thoughts by rules.

    Got cha some Real traveling Questions for ya both K&N!!1) How many Continents are you both going to be conquering this year, and the ones you are not?2) Do you were a Canadian Flag on your rucksack ( I know your both proud Americans ! ) ?3) How much do you think about the very end of your adventure where you're eventually be back in your regular way of life?4) If you didn't speak another language apart from English, which language do you think so far would be the most one you wished you had learnt to speak, just for communication to locals?5) Do you plan to go to any sporting events on your trip that are known world wide?6) Do you plan to see as many of the 7 wonders of the World?JJ30~!~

  • @JamesKing-ts2bs
    @JamesKing-ts2bs Před 5 lety

    Our issue is saying Time travel... It's not possible to bend the constant of happening. We need to focus on something small to make sense of it. For example. We see a star die here years after it died due to light taking to to arrive here on earth however, we can travel to a 'INSTANCE' by making a journey of that which is faster than light travelling, this would mean measuring point A and B, lets say between 'A' being Now and 1950 being point 'B' - Lets measure how fast light has travelled since 1950 to 2019 in a singular direction. if we were to travel to that distance in a instant you would be able to look back and see that light instance however you would need a very very powerful telescope to view point 'a' at a light distance of point 'b' now imagine if you scrap that telescope and travel back to point 'a' faster than light has taken to arrive at the point B location again? you would be in that light instance meaning 1950!
    Example again: 2 people walk to the shop. 1 walks and 1 runs. so the person running will arrive at the shop and home again before the person who is walking even though you both start on the same journey at the same time. We live and understand as the person walking... we need to focus on being the man running in order to get from home 'A' to the shop 'B' faster than Light 'Man Walking'
