    You guys taught me how to pack for my first trip as a teenager before I even told my parents I was leaving. How to prepare and what not to forget. And to have fun. I remember feeling so anxious because I had no idea how to tell my parents (they're very controlling: I was a fresh adult and I basically had to order myself to say that I was TELLING them that I was definitely going, not ask for permission. It was very messy.) that I was leaving, and I was very nervous because I had never gone anywhere that far on my own before - even though it was still in my own country - but simply looking up how to pack for a trip and travel tips really eased my mind about it whenever I started to overthink. And watching your travel videos inspired me so much and was such a good escape from everything.
    I had no idea how to do anything; how to book tickets, make an itinerary, plan for the days. It all seemed so huge and scary and impossible. Hell, I secretly created my own bank account alone just because of that trip, which was only a 4 hour train ride away!!! I decided to maybe start with what I would take with me. So I went off and bought a simple 15€ 40L backpack from Decathlon and it has been my faithful travel companion ever since, I've never gone on a trip without it EVER and the 10 year guarantee is nearly halfway through! Backpacking only!
    Obviously I overpacked like CRAZY for that trip, but this girl would 100% carry that absolute unit of a backpack all over again if she had to repeat that first taste of independence. Your channel truly helped me figure out the most important steps that I could take towards freedom (financial control - responsibility - preparation - a whole shitload of guts) , so I am incredibly grateful and beyond thankful for your dedication to it. I'm proud to say that I have now been to two other different countries (money is still tight - but I always budget!) several times over the years, and my backpack still looks and feels brand new! I know it's not much, but it sure makes a hell of a difference to me and that is what matters the most. I really like taking good care of my travelling gear.
    Nowadays I already know what to take with me, and my personal rule is to whenever I finish packing, ALWAYS remove 50% of it. A half-full backpack gives me the joy of being able to bring home another half backpack of memories (even if that's just a whole bunch of foreign candy!). Travel makes me so, so happy! And if it wasn't for YOUR easy-going nature and smart planning, I might've never stuck around, gotten hooked and discovered that.
    Good luck you two, thank you for everything and stay healthy! To better days and safer travels in the future!

    Alexandra - Hi from North East England :)
    Watching this really put everything in to perspective for me. Although the events over the last few months have been so tough for everyone, there are also some wonderful positives coming out of all of this. It's been amazing to slow down, appreciate little things like you said, explore my local surroundings more and not have the every day stressors of the 'old life'. I have learned to just BE. BE present and BE there for my loved ones. This is the greatest gift. I hope we can establish a 'new normal' as you are so right in saying that prior to this there were soo many issues within society. Maybe this is the huge shake that we all needed in order to change for the greater good? Thank you for evoking these thoughts Alex. Sending so much love & light to everyone.

    Great message, Alex! I've been reflecting a lot and mourning a bit of the past and my lifetime of travel to-date. But also appreciating more of the little things and the slower pace of daily life. I also recognize that the world had a lot of problems pre-pandemic, and that something new and better will come out of this. Congrats on 1M subscribers! I wish I started filming my travels 20 years ago but the second best time is always the present moment ;) Either way, these crazy times are a good reminder that you don't have to go far for an adventure! Now is a great time to do some domestic travel and achieve personal goals. Looking forward to seeing more videos in nature!

      vagabrothers have had to consider taking CZcams on as full time, but considering that as a blessing in disguise. Was a business owner in a retail business that was at the end of its rope after 12 years due to behavioral changes of people no longer shopping in stores, Covid was the straw that just broke the camels back.

    I've been following you guys for about 2.5 years now and you have been a great reminder and inspiration at the same time. From 2013 to 2017, I lived in Quito, Ecuador and explored that tiny country with tremendous curiosity. Additionally, I did some traveling around other parts of SA and was always in awe of the beauty and inspiration that was at my doorstep. I never took that 4 year adventure for granted, but my career (and a promotion) put me in the OC - definitely not a bad place to be at all. However, I could never truly feel comfortable or at home because of that tremendous 4 year life experience in South America; there was always an itch that I couldn't soothe. Later, I found this channel and it returned some of that feeling of "exploring the unknown" to my soul. For that, I thank you and your brother. Several months ago I was granted a transfer to Bogotà, Colombia and I have been extremely excited about returning to the that beautiful part of the world to begin another journey. That's what life is all about...the journey! As you quoted Heraclitus, change is the only constant in life! These words have never felt more true and profound. Thank You!

    I sat down to watch this video wondering what you and Marko have been up to, just finished with the comforting thought that you are both every bit the open-minded, genuine, caring global citizens that I’ve always known you to be. Your channel has been a consistent beam of positivity and inspiration for me as a small CZcams creator, though we are in different lanes, your dynamic as cohosts and your talent for honestly conveying your passion is something that I hope to capture in my own endeavors (especially because my cohost is my twin brother!) Much more importantly than personal inspiration related to my CZcams journey, you and Marko have both shown to this community the depth of your respect and compassion in recent months, and indeed throughout your whole career. It was your channel that in large part spurred my love of true travel, travel that is rooted in integrity, mutual respect, and appreciation for the diversity that exists on this planet. You both do an exceptional job at voicing your opinions, providing reason, guidance, and hope, and you have built an amazing community of like-minded thinkers eager to make the world a more understanding place. Thank you for always being a source of professionalism, inspiration, and honesty on this platform, it is not unnoticed even in other niches of CZcams. Warm regards from Pennsylvania in the United States. Cheers Alex, and cheers Marko!

    Much love my dude, counting the moments till this lockdown ends. I met my wife in Australia in 2017. I’m from Arizona she’s from the midlands of England. We were working on her immigration to finally get her here but that has come to a stand still amongst this pandemic. I was supposed to visit her in may and that got canceled. The days are long without her and can’t wait for all of this to finally pass. Thanks for your video and your guys channel. We both love to travel and when we can’t we know we can escape somewhere else through this Channel.

    So heartfelt! Made me cry because there is so much going on and it’s like what else is 2020 going to throw at us, but staying positive, trusting God because He is in control and loves all of us, now we need to love each other. Sending my love to you and your brother from Greenville SC.

    As a fellow vagabond and a woman of color, I want to say thank you. I was born and raised in Detroit, Michigan but currently live in Arizona. My husband and I have taught in China, Vietnam, Thailand, and Tanzania. When I look at my photos and videos I feel immensely grateful but also sometimes very sad. Sad because I miss my friends abroad and worry that I'll never see them in person again. But I had amazing opportunities to meet amazing people and I will never forget those times in my life. Congratulations and good luck to you and your father and friend. Stay safe on your ride!!!!!!💖💖💖💖💖

You're such incredible human beings, so inspirational and hard working professionals. I’m glad you are fine, and I’m really happy about being part of the vagabuddy community and the awesome life project that you’ve shared with all of us, by following and enjoying your videos even like if I were there. Your are simply marvelous. Thank you for everything. I’ll keep checking out your new projects, and I wish you have a huge success in everything you and Marko do. Lots of love.

    Hello. My name is Ryan and travel is my foremost passion. I'm blessed with a good tech job in San Francisco and miss traveling. Watching your videos really helps me understand the world and what is out there, helping me choose where I get to spend a few precious days a year somewhere else. I really appreciate your videos because your quality and thoughtfulness in your analysis of a place is of the highest quality, so I know that a place completely foreign to me will be given a great quality-controlled review, in turn creating trust using your knowledge to help me determine where I go to expand my view of the world.
    Would love to see you shift your amazing passion for travel and ability to digest an experience and communicate it to us by finding ways to get away safely and locally, as you state you're doing with your bike trip. I'd love to see your take on camping, on surfing, on car camping, etc. I think a lot of people are looking for ways to get away in a world that won't let us and you are skilled at answering this question more than most, so while a simple idea like "car camping" doesn't have too much complexity, we follow you for the inspiration and allowing us to see how it works, drawbacks, lessons learned, how to even tour a national park these days, etc.
    Thanks for being awesome.

I think this time is to look in ward at what is around us and our family too. Great show.

    I first found your channel last year when my wife and I were looking for somewhere new to travel. We saw your video on Uzbekistan and we knew straight away that this was where we wanted to go. We visited there in June 2019 and it was one of our most treasured travel experiences.
    Your videos help me to keep dreaming of travel adventures to come whilst I sit down here in the antipodes (Sydney, Aus) with our borders closed for the foreseeable future.
