Wow thank you SO much to every one of your kind comments! It feels scary to be walking into the unknown with no real plan (my control issues are so triggered right now 😅) but I really appreciate the support you’re all showing. Thank you! 🙏🏼
Family comes first! ❤️ We miss you but FULLY understand! I get exhausted getting my family ready for a weekend trip and coming home is just as you explain it, a really low low. I'm really happy, honestly, that your family is well and happy!
Being able to find balance in your life and finding yourself is really important! As you said, highs of the trips coupled with the lows and isolation of coming back to NY put a strain on your relationships. Take that well deserved break! Can’t wait to get to know YOU better!
I was literally on your channel last night and wondered what happened. Good for you and your family. This is a very healthy and brave decision for you all. #therapistlife 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❣
Heyyyyy. Totally understand the loss of self or togetherness outside of travel. Life happens. Change. Growth. 40hrs a week editing videos? WOW. Truly a full time job. If it was easy , everyone would do it. WOW. I as a viewer forget the stage management part of it. Can see where it can become exhausting. Understand the next chapter of your lives began last September with new job, school, home. Back to travel perhaps during spring , holiday and summer break. You are a great speaker Carmen. Whatever direction you take I shall support. You didn’t have to but thanks for your transparency and explanation. Have a great weekend young lady 🤗🥰
We are still here for you! Ofc family comes first always, and that crazy of editing for 40 hours a week. I am very ahppy your family is doing well and happy! I send you best wishes!
Love this video... As a person that travels a few times each month, being home is like being on vacation at this point. I was trying to get my channel going and got so discouraged with progress that I just gave up on posting much long content. Its definitely a mental battle that can take away from the fun that I'm having, just sitting thinking about making content instead of enjoying the memories. Whatever God has for you is for you! ❤
Completely understand! One reason why I didn't think family travel content wouldn't have been the best for my family. I have always loved your content and look forward to the change. 😊
Hi Carmen, glad to see you! We totally understand your new direction, making long form video is So. Much. Work. 😵💫😅 As a parent, we choose what it’s best for our family. The view doesn’t matter if your mental health is at risk. Best wishes and take care. Anne & Eric
I enjoyed watching your video and will still sign on when it is you by yourself. I am so proud of you for putting your children and family first. It is their time to grow as normal as they can and enjoy special time with their friends. Family first 🙏🏾🙏🏿🙏🏽💜
This is so incredibly wise and meaningful. A group of ppl I worked with “blew up” and a few are legit famous like can’t go places without security. I abandoned a tour to do home care for a disabled family member. Yet I feel like the lucky one because I also know very wealthy people and I measure wealth in freedom and choices. Your kids will need to figure out that for the,selves. The demand of creating content and monetizing is … I have only seen my first video of yours yesterday but this really important information and it’s very genuine of you to put it out there.
I love that you are putting your family mental health first. I have enjoyed your videos and I still enjoy watching them before a trip. Thank you for sharing your expertise and family. I’ll still be here.
I've always wondered how you guys did this. Between organizing travel, maximizing travel points, and editing, you must've been working on borrowed time. Then when you add in relationships (family, friends, etc), and there must've been multiple breaking points. I'm so happy for you guys now. Excellent pivot.
Totally get you 100% As a content creator I can totally relate that behind the scenes can be grueling and frustrating at times. We'll always be here to support you, especially if it's in the best interest of all of you (& your family). Wish you the very best moving forward.
Whatever you do Sis we will be there. We await the next journey. Thank you for the memories, but more so thank you for being a true parent and mom. Family First🫡😋🫶🫵
I want to first thank you for your great content. I decided my first trip after(during) Covid would be to The Finest resort after watching your video. You video was so informative. And I must say that has been my best all inclusive experience. I’ve been 3 times since. I wish you and your family well for all your future endeavors. Much love to you ❤
I hope you enjoyed your Mother’s Day with the family. I completely understand how exhausting it is to film & I’m looking forward to your new content 🧑🏾🍳😊
I get it, but my favorite creators ALWAYS stop posting and then I am just sitting here twiddling my thumbs with nothing to watch 😂 You explain this so well though and I understand 1000% 🫶🏽 Sidenote- you look amazing! Skin & hair is on point.
I can relate! We also got tired of "stage managing". Our first solution was to no longer have our kids talk in our videos. Instead, we just capture b-roll of them doing things. My newer solution is taking day trips on my own. It's so much easier to film while not also taking care of 3 kids. We've been trying to branch out into some shorter form content, but there is just not time for everything. 🌸Heidi
Sister, you are not alone!! Everything you covered is so relatable! We’re just part-time RVers! These are all big reasons why we don’t have any interest in going full-time, but even traveling the few times a year we do, we’re very careful with the motives and direction behind all the YouTubing. I feel you on being the creator of the bunch and the one behind the magic of the channel. I hired an editor which took 17 tons of weight off my shoulders, and now I enjoy the filming process so much more. It’s so much MORE fun having the community I’ve built behind the scenes now instead of going it alone! They add so much more than I could solo. If you haven’t considered it yet, maybe it’s time for that too while you pivot. Excited to see where your new ideas take you! Love seeing fellow creators thrive through a transition. Life is always changing! Embrace the new chapter, it’s gonna be great!
Totally support you, no question! And so glad to know more content is coming. I figured the channel was just dead and that was that. Looking forward to whatever you create.
Thanks for being so transparent, as always. Totally get why you're pivoting. Good luck with it. The bit about filming with the kids and directing them cracked me up. Can totally relate.
Miss you guys but totally respect your decision and pray all is well with you and your family. You’re one if the smartest creators in travel so will totally stick with you ❤
Totally understand! I’ve branched off to doing more solo travel and the content creation is so much easier than with the family. I appreciate your transparency and love your content!
Great video. I’m so glad you made those decisions for you and the family. I still have videos from 2017 that I haven’t even got to, so I know the dread of editing. Your family will really benefit in the long run. Especially, your children. You are so right that junior high and high school are pivotal times for your children. They need to make those friends and connections. I’m sure whatever you do, your content will be amazing.
"Freedom and control" are things I value greatly, too! I am one of those who have seen you around the city and have been like "hey, love your content" so I applaud your decision and continue to support.
Great video! I truly enjoyed all your family travel videos and wondered what a life like that would be like, thanks for coming out and talking about the behind the scenes and all the inside stuff that you would not consider, I am looking forward to your new videos!
I noticed your channel a couple years ago becoz of the family travel content, love it and have been following for a long time. This is the most authentic messaging and as a mom I understand the whole thing and completely support your decision. Family comes first. I will continue being a fan and thank you for being transparent and authentic with the community here.
Proud of you, take care of your family (and your mental well being.) And thank you so much for all the content you’ve made, it helped us numerous time!
Hey! I used to watch your videos since my family loves traveling and your experience of this addiction resonates with me so much! I do struggle to have this down time when we are back home from the trip, back to work, back to reality in a way. As well as I have recently started to create content myself (family not included) and even taking content for myself takes so much efforts when family is around (do mind my kids are 3 and 6 years old) so from having to wear specific outfits to be comfy around kids and all gear and etc, making aesthetic videos or pictures of myself takes ages… sending you love from Norway ❤
I agree, family first. My family is exhausted after every trip, so I completely understand. At least you got to enjoy the experience. You were my go to for travel. I only went where you reviewed, but I took away several pointers.
I absolutely LOVE this video!!!!! And I’m so happy and excited for your family. What a blessing this journey has been, and even more the gift of discernment. You are wisely leaving the casino when you are winning ❤
Good 4 you, take care of yourself and your family. These years with your girls are priceless. Change is part of life. Enjoy, NYC. Social media is going no where.
Bravo, for putting the health and wellbeing of your family first. As far as YT goes...you guys put out quality content, so less is more. Don't stop traveling because my family and I have visited several destinations based on your TFF review. Cheers!
All good things must come to an end. It's been fun watching but the time frame your kids are in now is so important to them and so short that I think you're doing the right thing. Will keep checking your content out! Thanks and best of luck on this new journey!
Still love your content and completely respect your new adventure made for the family :) I was just wondering how you DON'T get exhausted taking all of those travel videos LOL.
Carmen, I am so thankful for your transparency. The realness! I felt every word when you talked about the emotional labor in making family travel content! Totally understand, and looking forward to your content moving forward. ❤
So much respect for this. I found your channel because you made this work look realistic and this is so real and honest and I am excited for what's next for all of you!
Thanks for sharing these details about your journey in this space. It's encouraging to hear your story about prioritizing family above chasing the dollar.
When I was a lot younger, my dad advised me to enjoy each stage of life. That has been a priceless advice to me as I meander each stage of life. I loved your family content and enjoyed visiting Moon Palace The Grand in Cancun because of the wonderful, fun job you did highlighting it! :-) Thanks! :-) I also understand the relief felt not having to edit for hours and using a lot of creative energy needed to create content. Fully enjoy this new stage of your life! :-)
Good for you, sis! I’ll be here for the new content angle. I’ve always been #teamcarmen lol! My daughter will miss seeing the girls, but her favorite video is still the one from Cancun 🤍 Aloha & blessings on this new chapter for all of you! PS - I can’t believe you have a high schooler and a middle schooler 😭 I feel like I’ve seen them grow up from toddlers on social media. I wish nothing but the best in their academic careers!
Thank you for this. As a new travel content creator, you're right no one talks about this. You're video helps me confirm to explore different things on my channel. Plus I've learned with my regular 9 to 5 how to give myself free time to focus on me and nothing else.
I love your travel videos and use them as inspiration for me and my kid’s vacations. But I applaud you for deciding to make your family’s needs first. I plan to continue to watch your content and wish you the best!
I loved watching your videos and have missed them, but your family and your life is more important than. I totally understand your decision and wish you everything that you want out of life.
Hey Carmen! This is actually the first video of yours I've watched and I loved how relatable and honest you are about everything! It's funny that you mention being the 'creator' of the family and you feel like a director when you're travelling... I feel the same exhaustion while travelling with Ludvig, haha - although a lot less people to manage, I totally get ya. Looking forward to watching your solo videos!
I have been a fan of your videos for years but I totally understand. You have to do what is best for you and your family! I'm sure being a social media influencer is exhausting! I'm glad you and your family are happy living your regular lives and I'm looking forward to whatever content you create next! 🙂
I started watching for your family travel content. But I think I would find your individual travel content just as interesting, maybe more so, since it might be less curated and more relaxed for lack of better words. I'm really here for all of the tips and tricks. I'm also very interested to see how you will handle travel when you are competing with all of the other NYC public school parents for specific recess and holiday dates! My friends and I watch for the NYC DOE to release the annual schools calendar and then start strategizing, lol. I would watch that video oif you ever decide to make it and I would take notes!
It is so refreshing to see great parenting 🙌🏾. Kudos for putting the girls first and doing what is best for your family. Best wishes on the next chapter of your wonderful journey. 🥰
I appreciate your honesty so much, and how you are taking action based on how your opinions and lifestyle desires have changed. I think it's completely ok to say no to things that don't work anymore, and I'm so excited for your content moving forward!
you know what's best for you and your family. We love you guys and want the best for you. Take care of your family first. That's the foundation of life!
I love your content I loved the traveling videos because I’m a mom who wants to travel the world with my girls ❤ will continue to watch your new content era 😊
Hi Carmen, i love your channel and had been missing watching you guys for travel inspo. However i love your decision and thinks its the most wisest decision. Here's to evolution 😊
Thanks so much for sharing your family with us this far, Carmen. I so resonated with the stage management thing (though came to that conclusion from the other end)- our vlog couldn’t be cut together cohesively post trip because we didn’t have really think through the content and how to get the angles/what would be missing in footage. We talked about it and felt, you know what, it’s not as good from a content angle, but we are glad we all enjoyed it organically and we now have this vlog at least for our memories. Totally support your plans and following what happens next!
You were truly missed but congratulations on recognizing that you needed to make the change. Very well presented. Best wishes for your future endeavors.
Completely understand. I’m not a content creator but I travel a lot. This year so far I have taken 7 trips (Miami, Orlando, Miami, Greece, Italy, Switzerland, Spain) and I was due to go to Miami again last week and I had to cancel because my body was literally screaming “SLOW DOWN”. I lost the money for the flight but I was ok with it. Now I am getting recharged for a busy summer, (Maldives, UAE, London) and going for a month to Honduras to finish the summer resting and recharging)
Wow thank you SO much to every one of your kind comments! It feels scary to be walking into the unknown with no real plan (my control issues are so triggered right now 😅) but I really appreciate the support you’re all showing. Thank you! 🙏🏼
Family comes first! ❤️ We miss you but FULLY understand! I get exhausted getting my family ready for a weekend trip and coming home is just as you explain it, a really low low. I'm really happy, honestly, that your family is well and happy!

Constant travelling is exhausting too. I go on vacation 2-3 times per year and I find it just enough to take a break from work.
Kudos for putting your family and your mental health first. Blessings on your future plans!
I was literally on your channel last night and wondered what happened. Good for you and your family. This is a very healthy and brave decision for you all. #therapistlife 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾❣

That's a very good decision that you make! Thanks for sharing these real feelings! Way to go mama!
I enjoyed watching your video and will still sign on when it is you by yourself.
I am so proud of you for putting your children and family first. It is their time to grow as normal as they can and enjoy special time with their friends. Family first 🙏🏾🙏🏿🙏🏽💜
You only get to live once. You get one husband and those two girls can't be duplicated. Do what's best for you all. We support you 💯💪 🙏🎯
Yep, I agree family first. ❤ I’m a travel consultant so I’ll be continuing to watch your content.
Family first. You're not losing me as a viewer 😊
I'm looking forward to your new content. Glad you're back!
This is so incredibly wise and meaningful. A group of ppl I worked with “blew up” and a few are legit famous like can’t go places without security.

As much as I love this channel, I totally understand and I wish you all the best.
I love that you are putting your family mental health first. I have enjoyed your videos and I still enjoy watching them before a trip. Thank you for sharing your expertise and family. I’ll still be here.
We truly appreciate the candid update to clear the air. Since we were all wondering why we're not getting our weekly dose of Top Flight Family vids.
I've always wondered how you guys did this. Between organizing travel, maximizing travel points, and editing, you must've been working on borrowed time. Then when you add in relationships (family, friends, etc), and there must've been multiple breaking points. I'm so happy for you guys now. Excellent pivot.

Same! 🙋🏻♀️
Happy to see what content will be posted going forward! Welcome back to YT!
Totally understand! I’ve branched off to doing more solo travel and the content creation is so much easier than with the family. I appreciate your transparency and love your content!
Carmen, we're so here for whatever is ahead. Glad to hear that the girls are thriving. Congratulations to Serge on the new job.
Great video. I’m so glad you made those decisions for you and the family. I still have videos from 2017 that I haven’t even got to, so I know the dread of editing.

I totally get it and I've watch probably all of your family content blogs. Wishing you and your family great success!
Wow!! Love the transparency and I am so excited to see your new content!
Happy for you all, enjoyed watching your travel videos. However, excited for you all to have a more normal life. 😊
I really appreciate you sharing this. I love your channel and I'm so happy that you are taking care of yourselves FIRST!

Totally on board with this decision , looking forward to more from you
Hmmm - sounds rough!
Glad you had the awareness to course correct, good for you'all. All the best.
I have enjoyed your family content and I look forward to your future adventures. 💗💐

Good for you and well done for making the brave decision
Miss you. Your videos were always first class. Our needs do change over time.
Love your honesty ❤
I appreciate your honesty so much, and how you are taking action based on how your opinions and lifestyle desires have changed. I think it's completely ok to say no to things that don't work anymore, and I'm so excited for your content moving forward!

Thanks so much for sharing your family with us this far, Carmen. I so resonated with the stage management thing (though came to that conclusion from the other end)- our vlog couldn’t be cut together cohesively post trip because we didn’t have really think through the content and how to get the angles/what would be missing in footage. We talked about it and felt, you know what, it’s not as good from a content angle, but we are glad we all enjoyed it organically and we now have this vlog at least for our memories. Totally support your plans and following what happens next!
You were truly missed but congratulations on recognizing that you needed to make the change. Very well presented. Best wishes for your future endeavors.
I was wondering where you guys were! Great decision, good for you and you look well rested now❤❤❤
Every TH-cam family, shout-out their family 1st especially when kids are involved. Your a great mom
Awesome honest video Carmen! I enjoy your podcast btw (from an online creator perspective)
Completely understand. I’m not a content creator but I travel a lot. This year so far I have taken 7 trips (Miami, Orlando, Miami, Greece, Italy, Switzerland, Spain) and I was due to go to Miami again last week and I had to cancel because my body was literally screaming “SLOW DOWN”. I lost the money for the flight but I was ok with it. Now I am getting recharged for a busy summer, (Maldives, UAE, London) and going for a month to Honduras to finish the summer resting and recharging)
