Life With Rachel and Christian
Digital nomad life and slow travel have completely changed what we pack after 1 year of full-time travel. In this video, we’re sharing the unconventional travel gear we STILL use constantly as full-time travelers, from fitness items and comfort essentials to travel gadgets that genuinely make long-term travel easier. We talk about the digital nomad items that were actually worth the luggage space.

New video is up!
Ho Chi Minh City vs. Da Nang -- we did the full comparison for digital nomads and long-term travelers.
We cover cost of living, neighborhoods, coworking, internet, and honestly which city we think is the better base depending on your situation.
Watch it and let us know -- which one are you leaning toward? 👇

We did something we'd never done before. When we arrived in Da Nang we searched for an apartment completely in person.
If you've ever wondered what it actually looks like to find a long-term rental in Vietnam as a foreigner (in under 48 hours) and all of the steps that are involved this one is for you.

We just dropped a new video and this one was an experience 😅
We an overnight sleeper train from Ho Chi Minh City to Da Nang. 19 hours in a Private cabin with 2 twin beds. No WiFi. Mattresses that Christian described as concrete wrapped in plastic and...well...you just need to see for yourself.
Honest verdict from both of us is in the video — including whether we'd actually do it again (we do not agree on this).

We did a walking food tour through Ho Chi Minh City on Day 2 of being in Vietnam and I it was WAY more food than I expected. 😭 10 dishes. One night. And I learned how to actually EAT Vietnamese food, not just order it and guess. The banh xeo situation alone was worth the whole tour (you'll see what I mean). Video is up now. Would you do a food tour on your first few days in a new country, or do you like to figure it out on your own? 👇 Let us know below

We gave ourselves a $30 budget for a full day in Ho Chi Minh City -- coffee, transportation, food, everything. No cheating.
Wanna see how we did??
The full video is up now Every VND tracked, every decision documented, including the ones we regret slightly.

We tracked every dollar we spent living in Ho Chi Minh City as a couple -- and we're breaking it all down today.
$2 Grab rides. $13 massages. A $35 coffee habit we're not apologizing for. And a monthly total that honestly surprised us when we did the math.
If you've ever wondered whether Southeast Asia is actually as affordable as everyone says then this one's for you. We didn't restrict ourselves, didn't skip anything, and the numbers are real.

Our first group trip is officially happening and I am SO excited to finally announce that we will be taking a group to Bangkok + Chiang Mai from November 6-13. 8 days, everything planned for you. Floating markets, street food tours, ancient ruins, cooking classes, night markets. The whole thing.
Early bird pricing is $1,900 for the next two weeks only (goes up after that). You just need 30% down to hold your spot.
If this is something you've been thinking about -- traveling Southeast Asia, not wanting to plan it all yourself, wanting to actually meet people who get this kind of life -- this is for you.
Spots are limited and early bird doesn't last long.
We want to do this with YOU.

48 hours in Ho Chi Minh City! . One work day, one explore day. The War Remnants Museum, Book Street, a hop-on hop-off bus we ended up on almost by accident, an $8 grocery haul, and a gym that shocked us with how nice it was. The full video is up now. Come see if it's actually worth it.

We just posted our Seoul market food tour!
We joined a guided tour through one of Seoul’s traditional markets and our guide did not come to play. Netflix-famous noodle lady, mung bean pancakes, kimchi dumplings, pickled garlic I would genuinely eat by the jar, tornado rice, and yes – live octopus was on the table.
The video has the full footage and the full reactions and it is on the channel right now.
If you’ve ever done a food tour and it completely surprised you – let me know in the comments.
