    Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the #travel bug! We started “travel hacking” & finally decided we wanted to travel for one year. After 2 years of saving $ and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016. We started this #travelvlog to share our experiences with friends and family, then decided we really liked vlogging and traveling! After achieving our new goal of 100 countries before 2020 and all 7 continents, we have no plans to slow down anytime soon, and we are incredibly thankful to do something we love every day. :)

    the way that they didn’t screen them when entering the US just shows how poorly the country is managing it

      not quite. The same happens everywhere else. You arrive home and no one is trapping you. You have rights and you have a brain to look after yourself. Having a daddy Stalin managing you is no fun. They have to self-quarantine which is now the norm all around the world. Get educated before you blame.

      @@anialiandr Here in Australia you can only really get in on "mercy flights", the chances of you being able to get in on a normal flight are quite slim. And then you have to go into a MONITORED quarantine for 2 weeks (usually in a hotel or something). Every state has closed off their borders, and in my state you can't even travel between regions in your state. They legit have police check points on every major road.
      Treating America's response to the coronavirus as "normal" or "acceptable" is ridiculous.

      Ania Lian I am educated, most areas do screen and order quarantine for 2 weeks after travelling to another country. It’s not ‘trapping’ you, it’s preventing further spread of the virus and is actually beneficial to everyone! I agree that people do have a brain and look after themselves but unfortunately there are some very selfish people who wouldn’t quarantine xx

      C Hunter missing the point on what i’m trying to say, the USA would have a lot less cases if they managed the virus better, and don’t forget, the USA isn’t the only nation in the world being affected by the virus so saying that the virus was released to kill the people of USA is naive

Guy tested positive and refused to quarantine in his house.. they had a cop stay there 24/7.. 2. In the 2nd batch of reparation in California there was a guy that after a few day's started showing symptoms and refused to continue the government quarantine for 14 days.. I don't know how many days he was into the quarantine but he went before a judge and they gave him another 14 ma mandatory observation quarantine.. I don't know if he ever developed covid19 but he did get a court order for quarantine... so the answer is YES they can keep you from going home

And Trump wants to hold more of his mass infection events disguised as rallies, and wonders why not everybody loves him as much as he loves himself. (As if that were possible.)

    Glad you’re both safe and hopefully still healthy and happy. We’ve missed your videos. How about a travel vlog of Nashville (even without entering the sites there’s still so much to share), Memphis or the Smokies. I think everyone would enjoy seeing it through your eyes. The Ryman, Natchez Trace, the Parthenon, Opryland Hotel, Bluebird, etc. Have you ever done a Nashville vlog? If so I think I missed it. 🤪🦋🌷🥂

    What with Covid-19, travel vlogs like yours are pretty much the only "breath of fresh air", that I've had for the last few months; and consequently I'm *very* grateful that travelers like you, have documented your journey for the rest of us to enjoy. Thank god, I have about 600 more to go through -- what an awesome find.
    Content-wise, you guys are an amazing couple and I sincerely enjoy each and every one of your vlogs (even your older ones, which you might hate).
    *Please* don't let this hiccup stop your journey. I know it might seem like things are bleak now, but they will get better eventually. If your content and blog have proven anything, it's that you both are extremely intelligent and diligent about planning, finances, and achieving your goals. I think you both are wise enough to realize that breaks like this are also opportunities for planning and improving; find ways to make your already awesome content, even better; rest, recharge, get back in touch with your roots, and get ready to get back out again. Best of luck!

    Can someone help me understand why people in the comments are mad at them for being selfish? I watched the whole video so maybe I didn’t understand. I get why they had almost no choice to return to the U.S. (Visa and Traveler’s Medical Insurance no longer valid). They didn’t have much of a choice there. But did they leave the U.S. during the pandemic? I had a hard time understanding the sequence of events prior to this video. If they set out on this journey from the U.S. during the pandemic, it would make sense why people are calling them selfish.
