my only Q is why did you get married if you knew what you future will be? Cause you said you always knew...
@Bennie & Molien Wilke
This is my question as well..
I feel for Ashley.
My heart goes out to Ashley xxx
She addressed that. Growing up religious she got used to repressing it and being the person other people thought she should be. She still loved Ashley.

Aha religion the root of all evil
the only thing I ask for is:please don't delete these videos :(
👍
I can only imagine how hard this must have been for you both. You're both incredibly strong to still be supportive of each other and that is so admirable to see ❤️ Wishing you all the best with everything in the future!
I started following you guys when you guys only had a few hundred subscribers, specifically started watching after you guys posted videos from Turkey! So sad to see this but wishing you both the best of luck❤️
For Turkish followers; a simple translation. (aman aman bi çeviri olmadı her dediğini de çevirmedim ama üç aşağı beş yukarı bu.) Btw so happy to see you happy being yourself Alexis. Much love.
"Merhaba, sizleri uzun süredir görmedim, baya oldu. Bu kanal için çektiğimiz son video Ekim'deydi. Seattle'a vardığımız gün. Yaklaşık bir ay önce Ashley bir veda videosu yayınladı. (Yorumlardaki) Bir çok insan çok cesaretlendiriciydi ve bu çok hoştu. Bazıları beni görmek istediklerini belirttiler. Bunun çok güzel(bir davranış) olduğunu düşündüm çünkü aslında planım ortadan kaybolmaktı ama... bilmiyorum... bu fırsatı son kez 'Merhaba' ve 'Elveda' demek için kullanmayı düşündüm. Çünkü bu durumdan çok bahsetmedik. Evet burada yeniyseniz, ya da bu videoyu ilk kez izliyorsanız burada biraz dramatik olaylar oldu. Eğer Ashley nin videosunu izlemediyseniz, ki bence gayet iyi bir video, çok iyi bir iş çıkardı. Ancak ben de bu şansı vedalaşmak için kullanmak istedim.
Peki, ne oldu? WayAway'e ne oldu? Ne olduğuna hakkındaki gerçek ne?
Yani, aslında gayet açık ve net, eğer bakarsanız bazı şeylerin benim için farklı olduğunu görebilirsiniz. Bu arada Merhaba, daha önce tanışmadıysak, benim adım Alexis. Evet, Ben artık yasal olarak LA de yaşayan 34 yaşında bir kadınım. Yasal olarak kendin olabilmek çok keyifli. Tamam, peki nasıl oldu?
2017 de eşime ve sonrasında zamanla aile üyelerime aslında kadın olduğumu ve transgender bi tecrübe yaşadığımı anlattım. Tabi bu ben hariç hayatımdaki herkes için yeni bilgiydi. Neden bu kadar bekledim? Neden herkesi kandırdım (!)? Tabii ki bunlar çok karmaşık ve özelime ait sorular. Bu videoda tamamıyla açıklayabilir miyim bilmiyorum. Ama özet olarak çocukluğumda bunu açıklamış olsam terapiye ve bir sürü kötü davranışa maruz kalabilirdim. Gençlik yaşlarımdan beri hissettiğim, olduğum insanın imkansız ya da yanlış olduğu bana öğretildi. Bu yüzden olmadığım biri gibi davranmaya devam etmek daha kolaydı. Zamanla olmadığın biri gibi davranmak normalleşiyor çünkü çok uzun süredir bunu yapıyorsun. Ashley ile tanıştığımda 'olmam gereken', 'olmam gerektiği söylenen' kişi olma konusunda çok başarılı bir iş çıkarıyordum. Hayatımın büyük bölümünde asıl olduğum kişinin çok bi önemi yoktu çünkü bana verilen rolü oynuyordum ve bu işte iyiydim. Gündelik hayatıma etki etmediği için üzerine düşünmüyordum. Ama zamanla bu hislerim zihnime yeniden yerleşti ve sürekli aklımı kurcalıyordu. Sonunda ilk kez bunları kendimden başka birine(Ashley'ye) açıkça söyledim ve tabii ki bu ilişkimizi sarstı. Yani nasıl birini istediğin ve ihtiyacın olan bir şekilde görmekten aslında başka biri olduklarını söylediği halde görmeyi kabul edebilirsin. Bu bir ilişki için çok büyük bir mesele. 2 yıl daha videoları yapmamızın sebebi bunun ilişkimiz açısından ve WayAway(işimiz) için ne anlama geldiğini çözmeye çalışmamızdı. Dönüşümümü tamamlamalı mıyım? Bunu yapabilir miyim? Artık lezbiyen bir çift miyiz? gibi soruların cevaplarını arıyorduk. Sonuçta ikimiz için de en iyi olanın ayrılmak ve kendi yollarımızda devam ederek kendimiz için tatmin edici bir hayatın peşinden gitmek olduğuna karar verdik.
Bunun için LA e taşındım. İlk konuştuğum yerde işe girdim. Hatta başvuru bile yapmadım. Referans olmasın için bir yerden yardım istedim 'tabii ki sana referans oluruz' dediler ben de 'Bu arada insanlar beni tanıdığınız ismin dışında bir isimle hakkımda sorular sorabilirler.' dedim. 'Aaa, gerçekten mi, iyi, bizimle çalışmak ister misin?' dediler ve ilk referans istediğim yerde işe alındım. LA e taşındım. Bir ev arkadaşımla beraber kaldığım kendime ait bir apartmanım var. Bu süreçte aşık oldum, ayrıldım. LA de yaşayan 30'larının ortasında bir kadın olarak hayatı tecrübe ettim. Hala kendimle ve geleceğimle ilgili öğreneceğim çok şey var. Bu heyecan verici. Evet, biraz melankolik çünkü kaderim için çoktan karar verildi zannediyordum. Öğrendim ki verilmedi. Bir açıdan 'yeni bir hayat'a sahip olma şansım var. Aradığım bu olduğundan değil ama kendim olma, özgün olma fırsatım var. Buraya kadar ki süreçlerin bazıları - eminim - anlayabileceğiniz gibi bir çok nedenden ötürü üzücü olsa da kendimle barışık olmak çok iyi hissettiriyor. Hayatımda ilk kez mutlu olmak için rol yapmak zorunda değilim. Tabii ki her zaman rol yapmıyordum ama şuan sabah uyanıyorum ve huzurluyum ve bu yeni bir şey. Yani var olmak, kendimle barışık olmak güzel bir his.
Birçok insan 'seni nasıl destekleyebiliriz?' diye sorup nasıl destek olabileceklerini öğrenmek istediler son videoda. Ben pek özel bir şey yapmıyorum. Bir youtube kanalım yok. Sadece instagramda paylaşım yapıyorum o da sıkıcı, 30'larında kadın paylaşımları. Bazen politik olabiliyor, yani dikkatli olun. İsterseniz instagramımı takip edebilirsiniz, link açıklamada ama gerçekten sıkıcı, günlük hayatımı - çok nadiren sanat eserlerini - paylaşıyorum. Kendi cilt bakımı ürünlerimi çıkarmaya çalışıyorum. Yani eğer gerçekten destek olmak istiyorsanız... Sanırım önümüzdeki yıl bu sıralar ufak bir lansmanla başlarım sanırım. Sitenin linki açıklamalarda var.
Evet, eğer hala yapmadıysanız Ashley'nin yeni youtube kanalını da takip etmeyi unutmayın.(Winging It With Ash açıklamada link var) Çok iyi iş çıkarıyor, birçok güzel içeriği var. Kendi hayatından vs şeylerden bahsettiği. Eğlenceli bir kanal.
Kendim hakkında fazla paylaşmadım için üzgünüm. Ancak şimdilik var olmaktan ve yaşamaktan keyif alıyorum. Sanırım kendim olmak için vakit ayırıyorum ve daha fazla rol yapmıyorum. Ve bu güzel.
Eğer (çok rahatsız edici ve özel olmadığı ve saygı çerçevesinde olduğu sürece) cevaplamamı istediğiniz bir soru olursa yorumlara yazdığınızdan emin olum. Elimden geldiğince cevaplamaya çalışacağım. Ya da sadece 'Merhaba' deyin cevap vermeye çalışacağım.
Bu kesinlikle kanala koyduğumuz son video olacak. Muhtemelen... Yani neden başka bir video olsun bilmiyorum. Bu sadece güzel bir 'elveda'. Kanaldaki bütün videolar kalacak çünkü insanlar tecrübelerimizi görsün istiyoruz. En başta da kanalı açma sebebimiz buydu, paylaşmak. İsteyenlerin hala bu videolara erişebilmesini istiyoruz. Eğer yapabilirseniz bu yaşananları düşünmeden videoları izleyip keyif almaya çalışın. Gerçekten güzel zamanlardı, ben çok keyif aldım. Bütün o zamanı Ashley ve sizlerle geçirmekten, paylaşmaktan, öğrenmekten memnunum. Şimdilik sadece var olmanın zevkini çıkarıyorum bu çok güzel.
Klasik kapanışı yapmayacağım fazla heyecanlanmayın. Sadece 'Elveda' diyeceğim. Sizleri özleyeceğim. İnstagramımı takip edip arada 'Merhaba' diyebilirsiniz. Tekrardan, sadece normal hayatını yaşayan bir kadın instagramı. Bay bay"
Thank you for taking the time to write this. ❤️
I must admit , don’t understood why I was angry at this situation at first . Then I thought “wow! This person has guts”!!! Probably more than I will ever have to come out and be who he/she wants to be!!! I support you and Ashley and wish you both much success in whatever life leads you!
Andy D Kid- what a nice and supportive message.
You’re a very special it/person.
That's what I was thinking
Thanks for wrapping it up. I always enjoyed your trips and did the things you two did when you were there. It was super meaningful to have someone who had already done the "things" to do in each place. A big Thank You to you and Ash
Thank you guys for all the experiences shared. You were the inspiration to my travels. Love you guys
That's what I call a plot twist after some hours of discovering the first video
Same here 😃 but in a good way I suppose.
SAME LOL
For ME it was after ONE video..i was thinking, "wow, he'd be a pretty girl"...then this...wow...blessings to you both!
This is so...awakening, i guess is my best word...this is a real issue in life...i really hope your life is happy now❤
Is there a single 'quaint couple' who travel the world making these "look at us....we want to be the center of attention" videos where they stay together as a couple. Said differently, I just watched my first video today and I just KNEW there would the vaunted "The truth about us" or "What happened to...?" videos. Regardless, live and live I've always believed. I wish no harm and nothing but true happiness to everyone so be you ....you got one and only ONE life.. I shutter to think about the torture you have gone through mentally to get here
I found this channel THIS MORNING after Googling "what is a Kibbutz?". What a journey I've had in the past few hours. You both seem like incredible people, and im glad to see you are both living the life that you need to live to be happy. Literal tears, and I never cry.
Thanks for sharing your side of story Alexis! I was sad when Way Away came to an end, but I am grateful for all the cool travel content you created! Thank you! I wish you & Ashley all the happiness! Take care!
Enjoying just being yourself is something we should all do but probably don’t realise how nice it is unless we spend a life not being able to just be ourselves like you did. Wish you all the best for the future and keep just being you! 🥰
I can’t even imagine the amount of courage and strength a person needs to take all those steps at once. Adapting to a new gender, a new way to live after so many years on the road, a new home, a new job. I hope you both find happiness, but I’m going to miss the traveling videos!
The great part is I don't have to adapt anymore. :p I'm just myself!
As the father of a transgender child, I wish you had had the support when you were young. Bravo for being the real you.
Thank you for being supportive of your child ❤️
May we say goodbye but most importantly Hello Alexis, thank fo your time and energy. Be you and keep loving life because you have so much of it with in you!
It must have been so difficult for you both. It's good you've been able to find peace and be you finally. Thank you for all your wonderful videos I so enjoyed travelling with you. Wishing you both much happiness on your new chapters. X
I really hope this video will be friendly because the connotation of the thumb nail and title seems a bit negative towards Ashley. I do not want some sort of bashing on my former fav channel! Interested to see your story though - just keep it professional, beautiful😊
I thought the same thing. I hope it's civil because Ashley never said anything about her relationship. I wish them both nothing but the best. They deserve it. ❤❤❤
No worries. The title is, very rationally read, just saying that Alexis will tell why she opened herself up to Ash and how she is doing.
@@moyashisoba I hope you are right. I do not think Alexis is the type for it nor would I ve expected that but the title's and thumbnail's connotation... Cross my fingers. I follow both of them and I wish them all the happiness in the world!
During her Q&A on insta Alexis was very kind and civil about Ash. so we shall see
Did you actually watch the video yet? It is nothing but nice and I adore Alexis for her bravery and courage. I'm so happy she is content.
The upmost respect to both Ashley and Alexis that they are doing this so peacefully without drama and everyone is not being dramatic about all this. And I'll love you guys as my favourite Influencers just the way you are.
Thank you for posting your personal journey. I have been a follower of yours for years. I am happy to see you are both kind and supportive of each other. I am thankful for all the hard work you put into your travel videos. Wishing the best to both of you.
Thank you, for doing this video. The wayaway was my favorite channel, im sad its over. But beleive you and ashley doing farewell videos was the right way to end it. Please leave the videos up, They are great ❤🇬🇧🇬🇧
I might come to regret posting this - I am posting under my old "dead name" account and am open to google search and doxing.
Im 48 years old now. I started transition in Feb 2017. Been doing it a while...
I ALWAYS knew it might come to this. I also hated the idea. The family problems it would (and has....) caused. My work life. What would my daughter think? I have a granite personality - I can always put my own needs in the background... so I thought.
But after 30 years of "knowing" and only having occasional good days... mostly bad ones. I made my decision.
Alexis you are 15 years younger than me. You made the best decision 15 years before I did. I regret not making mine 15 years earlier - or even before that.
Wish your transition and goals total sucess. Good luck sis ;)
Kimberly.
Congrats on loving yourself Kimberly! I know very well the granite stoicism needed to cope. It's only in allowing myself to be myself have I discovered my empathy and compassion. ❤️
My respect to you Kimberly!
Wishing you both all the best 💕 Thank you for all you shared with us these years. I am so, so happy you've found peace, Alexis. You both are killing it in your new big, beautiful lives!
great to see you are doing well! always love(d) watching you and ashley. glad you are finally able to be YOU. ❤
Thank you so much for the update as I really missed this channel. Very brave of you to be your true self. I wish you and Ashley all the best.
It must be really hard being honest with yourself Alexis, you've gone through a long process and then you've realized that you're a brave person; so you came out to Ashley and your family. We just watched your videos and didn't have any idea what it really meant for both of you. It seems there has been so much heartbreak in your relationship, but the great future is waiting for you, i really believe that! I hope you and Ashley will have great lives. I'll always support both of you, love from Turkey ❤️
Aga uzun zamandır videoları izlemiyordum şimdi bu videoya rastladım olay ne açıklama şansın var mı?
@noname nosurname Oha lan. Videonun başında ben şok. Ilginç bir durum

i feel sorry for your wife! ex wife!!
You're such a strong beautiful woman Alexis, you and Ashley both are. I wish you two happiness forever 💕
Thanks for taking time to say goodbye and share a little more. Wishing you a beautiful, boring mid-30’s life or whatever your heart desires, Alexis! 🥰 I will continue to follow both of you.
May I ask? If you have been feeling that you are a woman before marriage, why did you get married to a woman (who seems to be interested in men)?
It's probably a question they ask themselves
Hope she’s ok her instagram channel is dead.
Who?
Hello. I wish you all the happiness and Joy in the world for you in your new life. It takes a lot of courage to live as we really are. Thanks for all the amazing videos you and Ashley brought to us.
I wish you the very best! I loved travelling with you, you thought me so much about enjoying life and I loved this video. Being ourselves should be the first rule of our life, even when is hard, even if hurts the people we love. We have the right to be happy, I am glad to see your true self! And go ash! I love the new channel!!
Whenever I watch you and Ashley, I was thinking that you are beautiful like a woman but now wow I have been a follower since 2 years and I would’ve never expected it to end like this. I think you need to keep shooting videos because you are very good at it.
It was always really cool that y'all felt free to share your personal moments with us and so thanks again for sharing. Y'all didn't owe us an explanation but gave us such a graceful one anyways
This is such a lovely comment 😃❤
Thank you for keeping the older videos available. It is so nice to be able to look back at past adventures. Just ‘Be’ for now - super best wishes for the future. 💗
I wish you BOTH all the beautiful things this world has to offer!💚
I really enjoyed these videos and will continue to do so. I really hope that you both, Ashley and Alexis, will remain friends. I send each of you a lot of love and positive vibes!!💚💜💚💜💚💜💚💜💚
What's disappointing about this video is the lack of gratitude towards Ashley and accountability on the hurt you have put her through.
I can soooo relate to the "being" vs "performing" you're talking about - as soon as the camera is on, there is always a level of performance no matter how authentic you are trying to be. Even if it's because you are just framing the shot or thinking ahead to the edit. It's like an extra layer in the identity experience, and I've often found myself distancing myself from my online output and coming back to basics and my core self during times where things in my life were more uncertain. Sometimes the self-imposed pressure to "create content for fans" just felt unhealthy. Sometimes you want to enjoy things in their immediate and present amazingness, not through the filter of "documenting" how cool it is.
I loved watching your Way Away videos, I was just wearing that cozy Way Away jumper you sent at a country house retreat with friends this weekend. Wish you the best Alexis ❤️And if you ever come through Montreal, i'll be delighted to play tour guide for you.
Aww thank you so much Elizabeth! I love that you're still getting use out of the jumper 🤗
Gosh...just caught your videos and I cannot imagine how challenging this must have been for you! Stay awesome!
Bittersweet! I followed your channel since 2017. You inspired me to travel through the Balkans. I even went to Mokra Gora and Visegrad because I watched your videos. Thank you for the wonderful years of giving your viewers great inspiration to travel. I wish all the best for you and Ashley. May you follow your heart, always!
"If you can't be true to yourself, you can't be true to anyone else". You made a sound decision. Wishing you all the best!
And, last but not the least, you have always been beautiful.
I’m not crying. You’re crying! ❤️
😭 neither of us are! Why is it so wet in here?!
WAY AWAY 😢😂‼️
I’m really happy to know that you are feeling happy. Thanks for telling this for us, it probably was hard. Sending love from Brazil 💕
Thanks for all. Wish you the best for both.
I think some of us knew there was was something there.... its sad that you hurt her along the way (away) but also massively understandable.
I hope you both can be friends and I wish you the very best for your future.
Wishing you and Ash all the best! Greetings from Turkey. 🌺
Thank you Alexis, it was nice to see you and to know you are happy and doing well. Good luck in your happiness and future endeavors. You are very strong,
Hi Alexis, I really enjoyed the Way Away vlogs and all the fun you both had. I have a cousin who came out to her family, transitioned and is now happily living his life as he knew it was meant to be. It was a difficult journey but very fulfilling in the end. I wish you the same peace and happiness that he has found. xx
"I'm enjoying just being" pretty much sums it up.
Good luck with your future, and enjoy just being
Proud of you for having the courage to live your truth.
Hey Alexis, I am also a long time follower and really enjoyed your trips, also I was quite surprised about hearing what happened. But I can understand it all much better now and really appreciate being able to see both of you dealing with the situation. I can see, that it was really hard, or probably better freeing (if that's the fitting english word) , for you to make this video. And I hope you can live the life you always wanted to, wish you all the best!
im really glad you got on, i have followed you all from the beginning, i was seeing it over time, and we all are okay with that, so your followers love you for who you are and how you are...you could tell either way, you loved her, it showed. glad you both are doing well
Have a beautifull life alexis! Hope you will make videos later on though you could help so many kids if you were to share your story on here. But i respect that you just want to be living and discovering your life for now. Btw i never noticed how beautifull your eyes are before. Maybe its because they are only truly shining now...
Sending all my love to you Alexis. This is a challenging time but there is so much more love in the future. This is a stepping stone towards your future and your happiness and we are all forever evolving. You are strong, intelligent, kind, and phenomena. You have support and we admire you for your strength. I’m so proud of you for being who you are authentically and genuinely. It’s not easy but it has the biggest reward. Self love. Wishing all my love, hugs, and warmth to you, Alexis, and Ashley. Stay strong both of you.
Love this video and so happy for you 💖Also, the bangs were such a good move
😍 thank you!! I’m loving them!
Thanks for doing this. So happy you are free and legally yourself. Sending you lots of love x
You have our support. So sorry for the break up. It is nobody's fault. Congratulations on new beginnings.
Honestly I don't think I've seen so many genuinly uplifting and positive comments as on the last 2 vlogs on The WA. You are both ambassadors (note the corrected spelling Ash) for happiness & understanding. ♥️ to both of you.
All the love and best wishes to you both - hope the future allows you both to be happy
Hi Alexis. Appreciate you taking the time for a farewell here . You are so graceful and candid sharing your story. Can't imagine the guts you needed to muster up to reveal yourself to loved ones. To say you're brave would be an understatement. Also, you've always encouraged others to travel. Now I bet there are other people..those struggling with who they really are...who are encouraged as well..to embark on another type of journey. Way Away will never go away in my heart. But I fully and wholeheartedly support each of the paths you take. Hope we stay friends always. Thank you for doing this
Thank you Scott. ❤️
I’m happy you are living your true life but sad for the heartbreak that transpired. Wishing you and Ashley all the best.
All my support for both of you. Be happy!!!
Alexis thank you for sharing and saying goodbye. I've enjoyed your videos for years. I'm sad they are over, but do wish you well. I did notice as you grew your hair out a confidence and beauty as you held yourself differently.
Lots of love Alexis, your paths will open, thanks for the good times and fun xx
Hi Alexis. We appreciate your honesty. It is great that now you feel free of being your real you. It is nice that you mention Ashley with affection and respect. She does the same when she has mentioned you. You are both nice people and I wish you the best! Regards from Guadalajara, one of the first cities you and Ash visited while you traveled around the world 🙂
Wishing you Alexis, and Ashley, the best in your individual journeys. Though neither of you owed anyone any explanation, it was so nice to hear each of your perspectives. Enjoy “just being” Alexis. 😊
I started to follow this channel since the Switzerland videos, i binged watched every video after that, glad to have been a part of your guy's journey in a way, no hate, much love for you both instead.
OMG I am so shook. I feel like I saw hints of your transition in past videos. I wish you love and happiness as your true self
Good luck and fortune with your new life Alexis. I do hope you are on amicable terms with Ash, are subscribed to her new channel.
Covid crisis has messed up all the travel vloggers plans, so it's good to see her home state adventures. After all, Wayaway team had some awesome times around the globe. You will always have those good memories. As long as the channel is available others can be inspired to see the world through your videos.
I only discovered your Way Away channel yesterday and was working my way through your UK videos when I suddenly noticed the last two goodbye videos which left me briefly lost for words. Though I discovered your channel so belatedly I do want to say thank you and wish you both best wishes for the future.
Aww you should go back and watch their old videos they are really good xx
This was really emotional to watch... but at the same time, so peaceful and positive! 'Just being' really suits you, enjoy your 'boring' life (as a beautiful woman in her 30's in LA??? I don't think so...) and thanks for taking some time to say hi :D
Love the way both you & Ash have handled a very difficult time with such dignity and respect for each other. All the best to you both
Supporting you
Thank you TJ!!! 🥰
Aww kiaora girl, I only come across this channel last year when I clicked a recommendation vid. It was when you two went to my homeland, New Zealand 😊
Skip a year, I got the recommendation for this vid. At the start I was 'oh wow' 😮 and as I kept watching, I felt emotional for you and wanted give you a hug (I don't have the rona😝😋)
Anyway, may you forEVER be at peace and forever happy being who you want to be. All the very best, take care ❤️
Alexis you look so happy and at peace with how your life is now, as hard as it must have been to take that huge step, it was the bravest and best decision for both your future health and happiness. Stay strong and enjoy your best life ❤️❤️
Thanks for your videos. Good luck with your respective futures. This was a lovely way to wrap up your previous journey. Onwards and upwards and best of health also.
A breakup is never easy... A public breakup is even harder. This is another level entirely and you've both handled it with grace and dignity. I am so glad you are happy, Alexis, and even happier that the comments here are so supportive of you both! I hope that no matter what the future holds in store, that you both keep shining your light and giving us peeks into your private (and public) lives...
"A public breakup is even harder'
So, in all candor...I have been sitting here, in screen saver mode....just stating at this comment....coming to grips that for the first time in my life...I truly don't know how to feel. Please help me what I am missing here (so I can go on with life).
By this, if one makes the decision to "go public" with events in their lives, how is it 'harder' if they are making that decision. In other words, the "We want to do this" concept does not correlate to making things harder. Unless you are in to that, but again, this is Freewill. Would not the answer to make it "easier" be simply not to go public? Thank you and I love you.
Me and my dad have watched the Way Away for a long time now and we are both so happy for you that you get to live life as your true self. Wishing you and Ashley the very best in life
Hey, Alexis. Is your family supportive? Or how it is the relationship with them?
It's always exciting to start a new life. Good luck to both of you.
Having watched your travel vlogs for years it is sad that I won’t see any more. But to see you so happy and at peace with yourself is really beautiful. Life is so tough at times it is heart warming to see someone get to be the person they always knew they were. I’d love to see you post another life update at some point. Take care. Mike x
I'll admit that the first time I saw you in a Haribo tour, I actually thought you were a female. Maybe it was your energy/your vibe? IDK? Then, in a following video, your hair was shorter, so I thought you might be an effeminate gay man, but then you & your ex said you were married so I didn't concern myself with that issue and focused on your video content.
Knowing that you're now living your truth, I'm very happy for you in your new journey. Stay vibrant and beautiful as you've always been. (You look amazing btw) I'm so glad that you're happy! Thanks for the update! 👍
Thank you for sharing, love you both - glad to hear you have found yourself 💕💕💕
Thank you for saying hello and goodbye. I'm happy that you are able to be your authentic self. I wish you both the very best.
I'm not crying... Sending love from Norway, Alexis! I believe this was a story with a happy ending ❤️
Hello you beautiful soul. This took a lot of guts to finally come out and find yourself. I’m so proud that you are happy. I will miss your videos but I’m glad your doing your thing. Keep doing your thing and wishing you nothing but the best. Good luck my friend.
Lovely goodbye, so happy for you and Ash that you are living your best lives. Thanks for all the hours of entertainment and for allowing us to travel the world with you. Be happy always 😘
Love it that you are now hopefully happy within yourself.. Huge respect to you both.. Life is what is meant to be.. Just be happy within yourself and all will be as it should be.
Wishing you absolutely nothing but the best! If you would chronicle your journey, I know many would love to watch, and support you.
I'm happy for you Alexis. Life can be hard at times, but everything will be fine. Take care of yourself and the people you love!
Best of luck to you. Thank you for showing us the world! ❤️What a ride!
Good luck with your new life and thanks for the memories.
TH-cam can be a toxic place, but you two were always full of positivity.
Even if you were playing the part of someone you weren't, your beautiful soul still shined brightly through the disguise.
P.S I imagine it's quite refreshing not having to describe every meal you eat to a camera anymore.
I was a little surprised, but this is your life. Let everything be as you wish. Be happy Alexis.
Very brave of you to be your true self and must have been so hard too..but you've done that hardest bit now well done. I wish you both much happiness for future and know must been tough for Ashley too. Good luck to you both .
I will miss the Way Away too. Thanks for the vids, and thanks for leaving them up. Good luck with your new life.
this is so great. I am so happy for you. I wish you all the happiness in the world. Don't matter what, always be youself
I've followed you both for... I don't even know how long... Years. This became my absolute favorite travel channel pretty quickly, and still is. Your attention to detail, history, cultural insight, etc is not only entertaining, but pleasantly instructual and your editing skills gave it all cinematic life. No one does it quite like you, so it will certainly be missed! I've sincerely enjoyed the adventures along with you, and wish you both the best on your new ones. Goodbye ❤️
Big changes. My first marriage ended with my husband coming out. Change is never easy but usually for the better. I'm sure this difficult. It's good to hear you're happy.-Shawna🍁
I'm happy for you beautiful 💕 I support both you & Ashley & wish you both nothing but the best! ✨
Much love Alexis, I'm happy you are finally getting to be who you are and are at peace. YAY for getting a job right away! Welcome to CA! I hope that your family is supportive and you have a good support system.
