Moving out of Hawaii

  • This past year we have grown tremendously. We moved a quarter of the way across the planet to Hawaii after spending the first 22 years of our lives in the midwest. While this past year brought many challenges and struggles, it was also easily the most rewarding year of our lives. We’re still finding ourselves and trying to understand our role in this big world that we live in. And we’re so thankful to you guys for being along for the journey. Thank you Hawaii for helping us become better people. We are really going to miss it, but don’t worry, we will be back.
    Much love,
    Matt and Abby

    You can tell that part of Matt's heart is in Hawaii, but most importantly the largest part of his heart is with Abby, and they're doing this move for the both of them to better their lives. Much love from Canada!

    I love how you can now afford to pay the overweight bag fees but you still stress out to make sure you don't have to. That's why you guys are so relatable compared to other young couples on YT. Welcome back to the Midwest and can't wait to see what 2022 is going to bring you!

      I was not ready to cry this much... I hate goodbyes too Abby, I am a senior in high school and my boyfriend of 2 years is now a freshman in college in another state, and every time he comes home, it is so hard for me to say goodbye, even though I know I'll see him again in a few days or a few weeks.

I am so glad you guys got to experience Hawaii and all that it has to offer :) I literally was tearing up when Abby said goodbye to her friends but LOL'd when Matt said 2020 instead of 2022, you guys were so sleeeeeppyyy... The ending was like bittersweet because I literally feel like I have been on this journey with you guys since you guys were in your cute apartment!! One door closed and another door is about to open. Can't wait to see what 2022 has in store for you guys and it is PERFECTLY fine to live with your parents temporarily until you figure out your next plans. It will take some stress off bills and such until you find exactly where you want to live next! Now catch up on rest, enjoy Christmas, and film some great content with family! We love you guys!!
