If you only knew...
Tell me about it
Yeah, watching this in January 2021 like...
I wish you both well on your new adventures. Growing "up" and growing older offers so much and i am glad to see you both are grabbing life by the you know whats and taking your opportunities. Congrats on the producer job and congrats on the engagement. I am very happy to hear that your mom's treatments are helping. That is a tough road. It was great following you two together grow and travel together and it will be great to see where your adventures take you. Good luck guys!
Thank you so much Wolter!!! Congrats to you as well! Keep crushing it!
Mark I was wondering if you kept up with these guys! You and the vagabrothers are definitely my top 2 when it comes to travel advice and ideas.
@@SternLobster43 thanks Nick
My husband and I love to watch videos from Wolters World and Vagabrothers! 2020 definitely brought a year of stillness and I hope you all stayed safe last year. As the vaccine rolls out, we hope you can start traveling again. We look forward to your destination recommendations! -Olivia (Chicago, IL USA)
Love you all!
God bless your mother, my mother is a two time cancer survivor. Moms are the rock bro. Always love y’all contents. Can’t wait to see what’s to come in 2020. 1 million “that’s nuts” I’ll get there one day.
Thank you!!! Wishing you and your mother all the best
@@vagabrothers Thank y'all, all the best.
This is like Rachel and Monica’s end of an era 💔
LOL. More like Ross and Chandler haha
vagabrothers Chandler and Joey! Haha
Frankly, you two offer so much more than a straight travel channel. Your cinematography is excellent. Your editing is always stupendous. The way you approach a new destination with respect, curiosity, and wonder is soooo unusual in the world of video/TV. It reminds me a lot more of books or long form written journalism. Just want to share how much I appreciate both of your work individually and as a partnership. Best of luck and warmest wishes to you and your family in 2020!
Thank you for this incredible feedback Jessica! We truly appreciate your support. All the best in 2020. -Alex
Thank you all for the support!
🙏
Good luck.

"I want to settle down a little bit" "I will be traveling for 6 months straight" hahah
You guys connect with your audience on another level😊
My Prayers are with you and the rest of your family.
Good job all in all.
You guys are a huge inspiration. So glad to hear from you and to see how your journeys are evolving. We all progress as people and travelers and creators, and I hope 2020 and beyond is amazing for both of you (And Carrie and Lanka, too!). Best to your mom, guys.
I’m so glad your mom is feeling better. And congrats on all of the positive changes in the new year. This is one of my favourite things to watch period. I’m so excited to see our future unfold
My wife introduced your channel to me last year while we were planning a trip to the Basque Country, Italy and France. I feel we approached our trip from different eyes because of your videos. We had a fantastic time and are already thinking about our next adventure. Best of luck to the two of you in 2020! I can’t wait to see what’s next!
Thank you Bernard! And you wife. It makes us so happy to hear stories like yours. Wishing you all the best.
Much love and respect to both of you. Best of luck Marko, as you trek on a new venture and can't wait to see you back on the channel as time permits. Been going through some of my own shifts and can't wait to hear your story. Alex, omg congrats to you and Carrie and wishes for a lifetime of happiness together. I imagine when you both come back together, the videos and stories will be EVEN better than ever! Strength, support and health to your mom and of course you all as well. Happy 2020!
Thank you for being so transparent. I love it. I hope your mom continues to feel and get better. And I wish y’all a happy new year of exciting challenges and wins. Your videos were part of my inspiration 2 years ago to move to Vietnam and put myself in an environment where I could chase my dreams in business and music. I fully support doing what you need to do to follow that North Star in your heart. The gut feeling is an amazing human capability that people tend to ignore and follow the voices around them instead (like family, friends, and even subscribers on CZcams). Fulfillment comes from doing the most valuable thing you can for the people around you, and I respect your decision to take a break from bringing us value to bring more value in a place you will feel more passion for in this season. Thank you Marko and Alex for the years of passion you’ve brought to this channel and inspiring us to be make tomorrow a better today. Marko, I wish you luck on the new journey. Alex, I am excited to see how you put your own spin on the channel with Marko gone. Keep working hard y’all! Happy lunar new year from Vietnam. Cảm ơn và chúc mừng năm mới!
God, I genuinely miss you guys. Hope everything is going well.
Thanks for all the great content through the years. Much love to you two. We've been following this channel for years and have pretty much been hitting all the places you've recommended. Best of luck to you and your family.
When I got the travel bug all of the sudden a few years back, you guys were the first people I turned to and all these years later it hasn't changed. Thank you both for enriching my life through the beautiful places on this planet & getting me excited to venture out on my on soon and document my travels. Much love to you both, you guys are the best!
Lots of big changes coming up guys. Hope this next decade keeps getting better for you both, whatever directions you take. Lots of love from the UK ❤️
Thank you so much!! We appreciate the support 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Your sibling relationship has been something I’ve looked up to and admired since I started watching you guys years ago! Can’t wait to see what 2020 has to bring for you guys!
Our family have watched this channel for the last 3 years. It has inspired travel for us and we have seen and tried what you have recommended in places like Sweden, Denmark, Norway, etc.
We are happy for you both in your new seasons, but will definitely miss seeing you together. Might need to rewatch the old videos until Marko comes back. We certainly wish you the best. 👋🏻
So glad to hear that your mom is doing better. Thank you for sharing with us your challenges and goals. It’s been so inspiring to follow your journey. All the best in 2020!!
Sending you guys (and your mom) lots of love and prayers from Arizona. I hope 2020 brings some amazing jorneys! 🖤🖤
Wishing you Both All the Best! Your channel is AMAZING and I have been learning a lot from your travels! Thank you for keeping us updated on the upcoming changes! Lots of Love to you both! Best wishes from Melbourne, Australia.
Alex and Marko, first and foremost, may God continue to bless your momma and may her health continue to improve. I love seeing the vagabrothers on the road, showing us new places. It is bittersweet, but I also follow you both individually and love your content. I am looking forward to seeing both of you achieve greatness this year, each in your own way. Keep up the great work and always, God bless!!
Great news....new experiences foster growth... Congrats Marko!!... Congrats Alex!! Blessings going out for your mother. Keep exploring!
The end of an era, but the beginning of a new one! An amazing one, I'm sure, for both of you individually and as brothers. So much love! And 1 million, I'm so proud! 💛
Many blessings to your mother and congrats about the wedding! I luv her channel, such good energy and I hope we see some wedding clips. I'm glad you slowed down Marko, it's great to keep moving but also reflect and heal.
As a long-time viewer (2013-14), watching this channel become what it's become has been an absolute pleasure! I took advantage of your Big Sur Road trip videos for my own road trip there in 2018 creating one of the best trips of my life. I'm thankful for your work here and wish continued success in all avenues!!
You're some of my favourite people on the internet chaps. Never a dull moment, always lifting me with your open minds and positive approach to life while taking in everything the world has to offer, with outstanding production value enhancing things further still. You've had a spectacular journey so far and I've no doubt it'll continue long into the future! Certainly hope so... Very best for it all, and thanks for everything :)
remember you always represent some kind of traveler. I am one year older with a similar issue and love walking so i will be watching more than ever to see how you find exploring cities.
I discovered your channel whilst researching about Uzbekistan travels. To say the least, I was blown away by the quality of your contents. I got hooked. Cant believe you guys decided to pursue your individual paths. Anyways wish you both all the best in your new undertakings. Keep inspiring!
Can't believe you guys are almost at a million! I've been a loyal subscriber since 2015 or thereabout and I appreciate your content for being entertaining and educational, something that many other travel vlog channels lack. Wish you guys the best in all your future endeavors! Much love and support to your mother as well!
I hope your mom is doing better! I'm happy you are both doing what feels right for you. Thank you for inspiring so many people. I found your videos and took the plunge and backpacked europe for a month 😊. Can't wait to see what's next for you both!
You both are the coolest brothers I've come across. Also, thank you for all the travel inspiration Marko & Alex (also Carrie)! Wish you nothing but the best 💐
Change is hard, but you guys seem to be approaching it with such a positive attitude that you can't help but succeed. Best of luck to you both with your Mother and with your personal projects.
Thank you so much!! We really appreciate your support 🙏🏼
Wow! Lot of big changes but it was so heartwarming to see how much you two love and support each other. Thank you for your honesty and transparency. Marko, I was especially moved by your admission about being self conscious in the early days. As a baby blogger (who is actually middle aged!) this is my biggest source of anxiety, so your comments were reassuring (and frankly you look incredibly comfortable in front of the camera, but perhaps that's what practice does, eh?). Anyway, you guys are awesome and I want to thank you for the amazing content you have produced over the years. I look forward to continuing to follow your journeys!
Very happy for the both you! Lots of new opportunities to keep on growing! I'm looking forward to what you are doing as individuals in 2020. Cheers!
Thank you for your advice over the years. My husband and I have loved following you all and used many tips in our adventures around the world. Sending good vibes to all and your mom!
Best of luck to both of you, and so much love to your mom from a fellow survivor. Thank you for all you do.
The one constant in life, is change. At 60, I've seen lots of changes. The key, in my opinion, is to embrace the new, roll with the punches, and grow where you're planted. I recently found your videos, and love your style of storytelling. Thanks for your hard work. Best of luck going forward :)
I love how supportive you are of each other. Thank you for a wonderful decade of beautiful travel content I cannot wait for what’s next in your journeys together and apart. Wishing you both the best of luck in your endeavours.
Thank you Aila!!! Stay tuned, much more in the works!
vagabrothers that’s awesome. Sending love and prayers to your mama and your family. May she beat the cancer soon.
Praying for your mom. Cancer is always so scary. Love your content guys, can wait for everything you'll share!
Your cinematography and background scores are of a whole new level. Excellent production quality. Have enjoyed your series over the years.
My prayers are with you all! I know BIG THINGS are in store for each of you!
Sending you both positive vibes and light. Hoping your mom continues to do well. My mother was also diagnosed with breast cancer in 2019 and I’m SO THANKFUL to have her fully recovered. ❤️
Yes!, super excited for the new adventures with you guys. Change and new opportunities are where we grow as humans. I’ve followed you for a while and always come here when I’m going to a new place to see if you have a video. Sending lots of love to your Momma, and wishing you both lots of health and happiness. Mahalo for sharing the journey and being so honest and vulnerable. Lots of love for you both
Thanks for sharing your adventures with us these last 7+ years and inspiring us all to travel and explore. Here’s to a healthy, happy and fun 2020!
Vagabrothers!!! Gosh where to start? First, I am so grateful to hear that your momma is doing good. Moms are a lifeline for us in a lot of ways and so relieved to hear that she’s hanging in there! Alex, your relationship with Carrie and the camera is so inspiring. I have been following both of you for years and am so stoked to follow your 2020 journey with respect to wedding, travel, and all things on YT. Mark, man, what an exciting opportunity for you! You’re going to do excellent work my friend. I cannot wait to see. So looking forward to hearing about your inner journey too. Overall I’m immensely proud of you guys, what you bring to the YT and IG world is incredible. I feel lucky to have stumbled upon a travel video years ago and feel like you guys teach me and the world so much. So a big THANK YOU. Congrats a hundred times over! I can’t believe you’re approaching 1M. That’s insanity. I hope you throw a celebration event in Venice because I want to be there! Haha. So much love and gratitude for you guys, for your family, and for your passion for content that I can’t wait to keep seeing. Happy 2020. ❤️
Thank you so much Lauren!! Without viewers like you we would be here!
I've missed you guys! So nice to see you so strong together in this video and close to one another, supporting each other. Take care.
Love you guys! Hope you and your family have a great 2020!
Oh guys I got Soo emotional watching this!!! First off your mom....my mom too had to deal with the second round of breast cancer this past year so sending loads of loving & healing energy her way. Secondly.....watching you both grow & evolve over the years had been an HONOR! I've always been amazed & challenged by how you two can work & create so brilliantly together even though you are both so different from each other in so many ways. It speaks to the importance & value of diversity & learning to link arms with someone who might be so different from us. Lastly I honor & relate to Mark's personal path in the past year & am looking forward to what you start to open up & share about your personal journey & growth. Love & adore both of you guys SOOOOOO much and am so very thankful for all of your hard work, this channel, your adventurous spirits, & all that I've learned from the amazing Vagabrothers! Cheers to you both in these new adventures!😘😘🤗🤗
Thank you so much Christy, it really means a lot and we see you each video here in the comments, so thank you for your unwavering support. Sending lots of love to your momma too! Best, Alex
Wishing you both all the very best for 2020 - and continued good health for your Mum x thanks for this fantastic channel too! 🙏
Love you guys and can't wait to see what the future brings you two. Whenever I travel to a new destination I always check out your channel first. So valuable. Thanks!!!
You both brothers are so genuine and humble as a person. The way you both share mutual respect for each other and enthusiasm you have for traveling and creating amazing content for your viewers is so inspiring😄. Love you guys may your brotherhood remains strong and will blossom further. Love from India🇮🇳
Happy to hear about your Mom guys most of all. Good luck of every project from now on and, at any case, congratulations for the great work you have done in these years. Your content is completely great and inspiring. Sincere Thanks!
My mom has been battling breast cancer over the last 5 years. Sending my love to y'all, your productivity is inspiring!
Your travel videos are so well made and polished it’s great to get to hear from you both on a more personal level and see how this channel fits into your amazing ever evolving lives
Love you guys!🙏🏻
You both have been such an inspiration for me💪🏻 not only when it comes to travel, but also life wise. Thank you so much. Can’t wait to see what 2020 brings us, goodluck with the changes in your lifes😊👊🏻
Love your channel, your videos on Northern Ireland were amazing, I went, and it turned out to be my happy place/favorite place in the world. Don't worry about your 30s! I did too, but now I'm in my forties and I still travel as much as I ever did. The very best for both of you in 2020 guys.
I always tend to loose interest as channels grow massively but i must say i still majorly enjoy your content. Loved this and heres to 2020. All the best x
Congrats on all the new life developments! I wanted to let y'all know that my wife and I got to benefit from your series on Peru recently via our own trip there, so thanks for all the tips in those videos specifically. Excited to see you both continue succeeding!
Mark, I hope you get to visit Basque country still from time to time-I still remember the time when I got to stay with you and your roommates for 10 days in San Sebastian! That is still one of the most beautiful cities I've visited!
Wishing you both all the best for 2020! ❤️ Excited for both you and your new adventures 😊
Finally, updates! Best of luck to your mother and to you in all of your projects!
Love the retrospective you included. Best of luck in your new role as a TV producer, Marko!
Great to hear from both of you! Congrats on future journeys, stay healthy and curious :)
Mark and Alex I have been following your channel for years and it has open my eyes to so many countries. I congratulate both for using your talent in a positive way showing the world to many around the world.. Sending love from Puerto Rico and always wishing you the best. If you ever visit the island would love to invite you for dinner. A brother that values all the effort and fun times.
What supportive brothers you are!! Much love on your new adventures separately and together. 🗺
I'm 33 this year too, and honestly, I've slow down my travel speed too. I used to go gungho on the cheapest travel, but these days, I'm just more comfortable with the basic comforts.
Thank you for all your tips and ideas for all the destinations. We have truly enjoyed all the beautiful and well edited videos you’ve made. Glad to hear your family is better and may 2020 be such a positive year.
Can’t wait what you both do in 2020. Congratulations to the both of you for tour achievements
Found y’all through the Hulu show. I fell in love with y’all because y’all are so sweet and down to earth. I pray your mom and your family be healthy and at peace.
Congratulations to you both on the big changes in 2020. You both are so inspiring to me as both a traveler and a creator. I’ll also be praying for your mom’s continues recovery. Peace, and I can’t wait to see the awesome content from you both! ✌🏽 ❤️ 🧳
Sorry to hear about your mom, I'll keep her in my prayers 🙏
I was shooketh to hear about the new changes at first.
But now I’m happy I watched !
Good luck on your new journeys,
I’m sending healing energy to mama Ayling💜
Keep moving forward guys and keep inspiring us! Love ya 💜
You guys are amazing! Thank you for all that you do and all of the content that your share with us. You both make the world a better place. Congratulations on all your success. You deserve all the amazing things that come your way. Can't wait to see what you both do next ! ❤️😁👍
I wish you both the best. You have definitely inspired me to get out of my comfort zone with my travels.
Alex , you are such a great bother for supporting Marko in his new producing venture - What you said was from the heart and I am sure means so much to him! Your videos have been so interesting and inspiring and I know there is more great travel to come!
😭 that hit me like a brick wall, my mum was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2019 aswell...it sucks arse seeing someone you love go through it but she's doing well. The second she's through it I'm taking her to whatever country she wants to enjoy herself. All the best for your mother too x
This is great - always go with your gut and follow your heart! You've done so thus far and it hasn't disappointed.
Congrats for the 1,000,000 Number !!
what a crazy moment it should be for ya guys , thanks for the big contribution to the TRAVEL SOCIETY .
I loved y’all from the start. Marko I feel for you on the social media tip, it can be so draining. I commend both of you for your transparency, so needed in today’s society.
praying for your mom. best of luck Marko. and congrats Alex!
Congrats for all your projects and God bless your mother. It is amazing to embark on a journey and let the experience transform you. wish you all success for all your endeavors!

You guys are my favorite travel channel, thanks for sharing so much with your update! So excited for both of you and what you each have to come. Sending so many get well blessings to your momma! Good luck on each of your new adventures. I am in the middle of figuring out what’s next in life and have been feeling a little down and this video definitely gave me a lift!
Thank you Jessica! We wish you all the best too. - Alex
Tbh for me, you two are the best creative storytellers I've ever come across with especially when I watch your videos about going to countries that are not popular tourist spots especially with the Uzbekistan videos, they're amazing, it makes me wanna book a flight instantly to go there. And to have that kind of influence on your viewers is just amazing and you guys may not be as big and mainstream as other youtubers are but I love this channel, I love you guys, I love watching you and the way you talk to the camera just makes me feel like you're talking to ME and I love how I could relate to it even if I havent been to the countries you've been. keep it up guys and I'd love to see more of you in the future.
Subscribed since 2015 and still here now at 2020!
I wish we could hit that love button 100 times. Thank you so much! Your comment means way more than you know!
@@vagabrothers I'm so glad you got to read it! Being your subscriber for so long feels like I know you guys but at the same I also dont? Haha it's weird so one day I hope to meet you two! All the love from Philippines ❤️
Good luck with all your plans! Really inspiring video and it's great to see some clips of where you started all this :)
This video made me smile beginning to end! The love and support from each other, undeniably genuine. Love you Vaga Brothers and wish you both the best!!
Thank you Kelly
Wishing you and your family the very best! May your mom recover fully! Wishing you the best for the producer role, Marko! Wishing you the best for your wedding, Alex!
I've always admired you both. At some level, I feel very sad. But, I guess everything happens for the best.
Take care and may life bring you both the very best on your road ahead!
You guys are most deserving of all the success and have had great contributing to our lives for sure as travel vloggrers. We all need breaks/changes to deal with highs n lows of our lives and hope everything goes well with u and ur family. Also congrats to both of u for the marriage and the tv show. You both gonna create more new stories of life for yourselves and of travel for us in the coming days.Would be looking out for u guys as always!
can't help loving these 2 brothers., such a great bond built up between you two that's valuable and adorable. Hope things going well for both of you although it's been quite a long time passing by since you released this video.
It's so great watching you both. You guys have inspired me so much about travel and traveling. Best wishes to both of you and for your life onwards. Hope to see Vagabrothers again someday🖤

Peace be with you through everything that is to come your way! I can't wait to see what you both have planned for 2020!

I'm sure you and Carry will have a great life together. I hope your Mom gets to be cancer-free soon. Love from 🇧🇬
Wow! Excited for you both. Marco, can’t wait to see how being a TV producer grows and changes you. Alex , can’t wait to see new content from you. I love this channel, 1M is just around the corner :D
