We discovered the world of “travel hacking” while planning our honeymoon & became addicted ;) So after 2 years of obsessively saving $35k and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016 for a “one year” trip around the world. Our goal was to see as many places as possible before we ran out of money and went back home to “normal life.” We started this channel to share our experiences with friends and family, but quickly fell in love with living on the road and found a new passion for capturing our travels through video. So we did everything we could to keep going. 4 years later, we achieved our new goal of visiting 100 countries and all 7 continents. We had no plans to slow down, until 2020 forced us to ;) Which is when we bought a converted van to start exploring our own country for the first time! After ~2 years of van life, we are back to full time international traveling! And now we are in our 11TH YEAR of finding the best adventures the world has to offer :) We are incredibly grateful to be able to continue doing something we love every day. 😊🎥🌎 Thank you to everyone who has been a part of our journey! 0:00 7 Stars Japan 1:51 our first impressions 7:39 Our room tour 10:54 Full train tour 14:04 Tea ceremony 16:19 train station foot bath 17:06 formal night 19:23 MAGIC SHOW 22:41 bed conversion 23:55 matcha ceremony 25:18 ferry ride 😅 27:06 our ryokan 🤯 33:54 private hot springs!! 35:17 private tempura restaurant 37:44 engine switch! 40:01 1,300 year old temple meditation 42:50 bloops
