Loving the occasional Aussie references......ie: Nullabor, Maccas, servo, etc. Great trip....loving the quality of the editing....you guys are producing real quality.... ( seriously good ). Next trip needs to be the Kimberley region....no travel bloggers have covered this area....and it will blow your mind, the scenery and wildlife are right in your wheelhouse.....and will no doubt fire up the argument of the best beaches.....Thank me later !!!
The whole WA coast has the most amazing beaches in Australia.
Check out Slim and Soph Sailing. They have just spent 6 months sailing from Darwin to Dampier, living largely off the environment. Lots of big lizards.
Yeah well they planned to do the Kimberleys but weather got in the way and they had to go to Alice Springs.
Yes they have to Finnish their trip over here, they sound half Aussie so we must have left a good impression 😅❤
You’re wrong about other travel bloggers not covering the Kimberley region. Try searching it in RUclips.
I can safely say that I speak for most of us here:
We Love you guys!
And feel very happy and fortunate that we get to share
in your travels & adventures.
And if you happen to be heading North to San Francisco,
reach out, you have friends up here. Take care, be safe.
I love that you called it Maccas 😂
Love is lifting your little lady to complete a journey together , she's as cute as a button , Tia for scale.. looking forward to next adventures..🎉
A fabulous end to a wonderful series. Thanks for taking me and 76,000 others along for the ride. Loving the Aussie references too. You two are honourable Aussie's in my mind. 🇦🇺
I think you must be the loveliest couple on You Tube . It is a pleasure to watch you both , can't wait to see you back in Australia
Wow! Two, totally different size Tia for Scales. Congratulations on completing Route 66. ❤️
I know this is a travel vlog channel but I'm actually here for the love story ❤
Hello from Australia again and I hope you guys come back!
I just arrived in the USA from Australia. I went to the fridge of a convenience store and took the bottle of Fanta to the cash register. Dude swings around the tip screen. What? I served myself, but I'm supposed to tip them for letting me buy something from them. It makes no sense. But it's true that American working conditions are horrible - low wages, only 2 weeks holiday, and you're trapped in your job because it supplies health insurance to cover blatant rip-off medical costs. Also, public transport is laughably bad here. If you don't have a car, it's a real drag.
You just summed up modern day USA,
and it's quite sad indeed, sorry to say!
When we went to the US, I was in a souvenir shop in San Francisco, and had the same thing happen. Almost everywhere there was an expectation to tip.
Glad to read people from other parts of the world are realizing the hellscape we live in
agree
@@crowcrow1465I can’t believe you have to choose between Biden and Trump
Isn’t there somebody in your country is is better qualified to lead the US
Nice to wake, make a coffee and catch up with you guys in a new video. Nice to hear a couple of Aussie references in Maccas and The Nullarbor as well! ❤
Best Tia for scale EVER!
i measure everything in Tia's now
My wife yelled "...now that's just mean!"
Great series guys! Some of the things I enjoyed most, were the reconfirmation that main street Americans are way nicer than 6 o'clock news Americans. I also loved the cities and towns you visited or referenced, that I know from popular music. I realised that when you visited Winslow Arizona. Towns like Amarillo, El Paso and Tucson. That was way cool. But I must also mention the one thing I think you guys do better than anyone else, its your music choice and music editing. Even if it's just muzak, it's always on point. Thanks for showing us some of your home!
Thank you so much! The compliment about the music means a lot 😊
@@OnePackWanderers Completely agree on the music. There were so many great things about your Aussie roadtrip, the music that went along with the road scenes was one of the best elements and was why I re-watched several of your Aussie videos multiple times - such good vibes and inspiring/relaxing at the same time. Well done!
HAHAHA "How's your orange?" that cracked me up. 100% agree pay your workers a decent wage. I didn't realise Cheveyo was an American Indian name "Spirit Warrior."
One of the many great things about your videos is the music you choose to accompany the story you are telling. It’s always excellent and one of the many reasons I watch everything you guys produce. The music is always so satisfying
Exactly, they do such a great job!
There was a movie made in the 80s called Bagdad Cafe set in Bagdad on route 66.
Cheveyo...has anyone just walked away from you and said, "Some guys have all the luck" ? You guys are living the dream. Looking forward to the next adventure!!!
See you in OZ 4x4 style touring outback QLD is a must.
And same goes for some of the sand islands in Qld.
G’Day guys. 😉 LA guy here. I actually drive the iconic Sunset Strip and down to Santa Monica Blvd daily, always passing historic Route 66 signs in Beverly Hills without much thought. Your Route 66 series has made me really stop and think about what that route represents for the early development of the US, and how the towns on the route are surviving or not surviving now. Great series as always, and was hoping you’d touch the sign in Santa Monica. Cheers and looking fwd to your next adventure.
Let us know ASAP 😏 your next trip.
PS ,don't forget Tassie (Tasmania) 😎❤️
Agree
Love your Aussie maccas and servo ❤ great video 👏
Great series, you guys! I’ve driven in all 50 states and have missed that open road feeling but you gave that back to me (and I’m sure many others). And that Tia-boost to touch the sign was adorable! Looking forward to whatever is next!
As an Aussie I’ve spent a lot of time in America over the years and found you all to be polite, friendly and welcoming people. Looking forward to your next adventure! Thanks 😊
I loved the bottle tree farm..so pretty💕 and Tia for scale in the volcano ! That's the best one ever.
Maccas in the wigwam - that's crazy fun...
It must be lovely being home in familiar territory but your feet are still looking itchy for the next adventure. Cant wait to see where it is 😊
This was great. I've followed you since Perth, the editing and photography has really improved continuously. Looking forward tot he next one.
I knew Tia is cute but in this clip she is like a young puppy jumping around and being amazed by anything 🙂 Cheveyo you have great taste 🙂 She is adorable!
Chevayo, you gentleman! Lifting Tia at the final sign was a delight. Great trip. Keen to see where you'll end up next. Oh and I agree with ElGordo - bestest Tia for scale evah!
Thanks for taking us with you, guys 😊 Cheers from Melbourne 🇦🇺
Hi Cheveyo, I agree with you about the US being a giant parking lot. Recently, I was on Google Earth looking for a place in the US and the closer I got to the ground, the more gobsmacked I became because there were more parking areas than buildings! To me, an Aussie, it looked like no two buildings were adjacent to each other! All Incould think about was all the homeless people in the US and how easy it would be to use some of that land as housing for them!
What a great trip. Great to see the more ‘normal’ side of the USA. Hope you two get to keep traveling. Love the reference to ‘maccas’. 😊
You made the orange guys day!
If you head up the coast, I'll take you to a Santa Barbara Farmer's market.
I'm so sad this series is over! We are planning our own route 66 trip from Kansas later this year (with a toddler 🥴). It was interesting to hear your take about the areas around my hometown. We are going to California for kind of the same reasons. My broke, starving actor friend in LA has yet to meet my baby. I will definitely be rewatching this when it gets closer to our trip 🥰
Oh Tia, she who drives thru railroad crossings with red lights and raising boom gates, she who also drives without holding the steering wheel, then offset by a bargain big bag of oranges, then running down into a volcano for a Tia for scale, then going to Bagdad, wow plenty of energy, well done. The bottle tree ranch was interesting. Cute Teepees or wigwams, much bigger in person 😀 well done on the trip on Route 66. Love and light from down under in Perth, Australia.
Another Aussie! Thank you for once again providing a well-rounded traveller's view, even from your own country. Both One Pack and Itchy Boots are my permanent goto's for a mix of information plus entertainment.
Love how you're slowly turning Australian
Haha. They havent said G'day to anyone in America yet. That would be so funny.
@@eurekaelephant2714 Hahaha, that would be good to see 😂
Good video as always. I was hoping you were going to be able to time it with the eclipse that just happened and watch the totality. Look forward to your next location.
I really enjoyed this series thanks guys. That is a journey I've always wanted to do but probably never will. I hope you also encountered some small talk and the odd smile when you were in Australia.
Congrats guys, loved all the videos
I can't wait to see where you travel next. There are so many incredible places to see in your own country, such as Big Sur. Show us the Red Woods guys, please. Yellowstone National Park and other national parks. Montana, Wyoming, north east America in Autumn. Hawaii... I'd love to see the cultural things of Hawaii. The list goes on.
I agree with you about tipping in the US. I visited for the first time since 2015 and it's crazy expensive now. Staying in and around northern California made Switzerland seem cheap.
And yeah, all the drug adverts are weird as hell, especially when they read out the long list of side effects.
Literally half of the time spent on the drug commercials is the narrator listing all the side effects.
Thanks for taking us on this journey with you. Can't wait to see where you're off to next.
Perfect ending to a really enjoyable journey. Thank you for bringing us along!
Yeah, that was a good Tia for scale!
funny how you think $4.69/gal would be the most expensive gas you'd pay now that you're in SoCal. Anyway, as always, love the series. I now say in my head, 'Tia for scale' every time I see an oddly shaped/sized road attraction when I travel. Cheers!
I've said it before, we need Tia For Scale t - shirts
Me too, said it over a year ago.
It would be a very inside thing... for now.
Agree with Cheveyo on the parking lots. Last time I was in the US, I looked something up and thought "Oh, this is only across the road, we can do both" and it took more than 5 mins because that road happened to have 6 lanes! Not designed for pedestrians at all.
The not smiling in other countries drives me CRAZY lol. Jacob always has to remind me its a cultural thing but growing up in the US everyone always smiles back at you so I got use to it!!
Yes!! I loved Northern Europe so much but the one thing is that smiling is not a thing up there! Always made me feel silly when I smiled at people 😅😂
Bagdad Cafe is a movie worth checking out. Love your vids ❤
We stopped at the cafe of the same name! They were closed for renovations, but still let us walk around for a couple minutes.
@@OnePackWanderers Another RUclipsr Sarah Jane Woodall aka Wonderhussey has a video about the Bagdad Cafe where she interviews the owners
That's awesome you guys finished Route 66. I went to US when I was 23... I'm 50 now. I'm sure a lot has changed. But I spent most of my time in Arizona and didn't encounter friendly people. In fact no-one seemed to understand me with my Australian accent. My irish friend who was living there kept having to tell people what I was saying. Eg. I asked for ham and salad roll at one stop we made and the guy behind the counter didn't understand me at all. Of course when I opened the roll it was just a huge amount of ham and no salad in it... I was a little disappointed. Here we have a little bit of ham and lots of salad. Oh the memories. lol. It is fun travelling though.
Congratulations to you guys crossing another milestone off your bucket list.. I’m watching this video at 3.00am Vietnam 🇻🇳 time. You guys are so cool and the Route 66 video was fun to follow 😊🙌 oh Tia for scale in the volcano crater was the best..
So true about parking lots. So much land being lost in the US. I lived in Vietnam and worked. We had 2 room apartment 5 people and 2 light bulbs. Took me awhile to get use to all the lights in US homes. It just seemed so wasteful.
Congratulations 🎉 that was a really great series. Take care. I'm looking forward to seeing your next adventure 😊❤
For a terrific ending to your journey along Route 66. Like a lot below, love your Aussie references, you are both definitely Aussie kindred spirits. Congrats on your journey and its wonderful that you could have new experiences and eye opening moments in your own backyard. See you both again on your next adventure. Travel safe ❤
I find the US super, super expensive as a European. Everything excludes VAT, and tipping on top. So the sticker price is way off....see a meal for $20, by the time tax and tips added together...it is close to $30. I have to keep in mind everything is like another 30% extra on something that is already pricey (food wise).
As a US citizen, I hate our tipping culture and the mindset that if you dont tip you simply shouldnt go out to eat. I cant believe we have allowed one of the Largest economies in the world to convince its citizens it should pay eachothers wages instead of the actual companies individuals are employed by. It also blows my mind how far we think is normal to travel to and from work.. For example I travel 69-72 miles per day on my round trip work commute. WE DO have a ridiculously beautiful and diverse country though so there is that.
@@crowcrow1465 This is what I don't understand....When I go out eating I don't feel like a customer. I feel like I am there as like a judge...I judge how well the restaurant /server is performing and then tip accordingly.
I just want to eat, pay and get out. I don't want to be made to feel bad about tipping you less because you are having a bad day or not smiling enough, then having you having a go at me at the restaurant in front of everyone for low tips! There is this pressure there that I do not want. What kind of transaction is that, it is almost under duress...I really hate it.
The contract of employment is between the restaurant and its staff, not between the staff and the customer.
"We got Macca's".....love it.
thanks for taking me along good trip
As an Australian, I've always heard that Americans are friendly.
I'm with Tia on the billboards, though it's not the billboards but what's ON them (drugs and accident lawyers - super weird, you never see that anywhere else). Kinda bummed you guys missed Barstow, there's lots of cool Route 66 stuff there. Congrats on finishing though, awesome to finish with a sunrise at the beach :) I've really enjoyed this Route 66 trip and can't wait to see what adventures are next!
LOL, Tia for scale inside a volcano.!!!!
WOW, not used to seeing Marlboro advertised on the front door of the servo !!!! (yes I'm from OZ)
What an amazing road trip on Route 66. Thoroughly enjoyed watching your adventure.
As an Aussie, the references to Australia help to put things into context, perhaps because Australia and the US are very similar when it comes to road trips and distances and a lot of the environment.
I'm curious, on average, how far did you drive each day? So much to see but also a lot of driving with a slowly changing landscape.
Keep your adventures coming, we enjoy seeing your view of the world and not a travel agent type documentary.
That was so cool (66) I can't wait to see what's next 😊👋🇳🇿
Well done! It is gratifying to see how the two of have stuck together.
Yay!! Looking forward to seeing you guys back again in the land of Aus. 👏By the way... love your art work Tia.
gee I can buy California Navel oranges in Australia for AUD9 per Kg.
Fantastic series 👏👏👏....
Great video! Road trips out west are some of our favorite memories❤
Been a really fascinating journey to watch
Great videos and trip! Now its time to return to Straya :)
Thank you for being so amazing! I've been enjoying your videos since you visited Finland. I hope the same kind of stuff will continue to be released...
We so look forward to watching your videos. Super great quality, (love the drone footage) interesting facts and just downright fun! You two are such sweeties. We ❤ you heaps!! Please come back to Australia! 😍
I love that you have embraced the term Maccas! Wonderful trip, thankyou for taking us along for the ride.
I love you guys! Don't scare me with the titles though! When people post "The End" is usually means they're ending their channel. NOOOOOOOOOOOOO I thought.
BTW I couldn't stop hitting the 5 second rewind when Tia crashed into the bathroom sink. That little "argh" amused me so much, I must have watched it a dozen times.
Another quality video to wrap up another journey. People are friendly everywhere in my experience. Can't wait to find out about your next adventure.
you are on a familiar drive, now. I too recall the long train beside me. I remember wondering how often that big old thing rolled through the desert with many very small populations along the way. when I stopped at a combo gas station / fast food pit stop, there was a big sign with lots of hamburger options on it. Oh, what the heck. I ordered a hamburger. the reply was priceless. Sorry, we're out of hamburger meat...and there was my answer. that long train didn't roll through often enof!
No judgement, the fact you called it Mecca's, warms my heart🤣🇦🇺
I really hope you giys come back to Australia soon. Your videos were a highlight after a long day at work
Well done guys loved the whole route 66 trip amazing road trip right to the end
I got to Krabi next week so will miss ya vlogs for 2 weeks annoyed I won’t know what’s next till I get home so sad
Thanks for taking us on your journey, can't wait for the next one.😊
In the caldera? The best Tia for scale ever. You guys!!!! 😁😁😁😁. lol, awesome use of the word Maccas.
Prob a bit late with this comment, but FWIW, I'd love a short (or long) series on Sedona. I drove through there but didn't stop (needed to make the Grand Canyon). I hear the mountain biking is very good there. Maybe stash the idea for the next time you want to visit home. Stay safe and keep having fun :)
Thank you for sharing this wonderful adventure with us! Can’t wait for the next adventure 🎉
You two are the cutest couple! I love living vicariously through you both.
Congratulations! 🥳
Love the bottle tree plantation. There’s a big ‘thong’ (flip flop) tree in the middle of a caravan park (trailer park) about an hour and a half away from where I live here in Aus - doesn’t reflect/refract the light as well though!
The teepee motel is so cool!
Perfect way to end the journey with a beach sunrise!
Have mixed feeling about the finish of Route 66! Have really enjoyed the series - sad to have to say goodbye to Cherry too but excited for your next adventure!
Thank you for letting us all tag along!
Great video, as always. Loved your culture shock reflections - and loved the bloopers! 😂❤
Always inspirational travels!! 17:04 congrats guys!! Great series! Excited to see the next adventure! Take care always!
Thanks, you two 😊
And you're right, Cheveo, I was just listening to some US infrastructure guy on radio/podcast talking to an Aussie journalist, saying that the USA has about 25% more parking spaces than required.
Loved the episode.
Also you're so right "checking out your own back yard" should do it. In my case - Australia.
Definitely a brilliant “Tia for scale”! Inside a caldera!! So cool!
Well done Tia. Brilliant effort (Tia for scale)
Interesting to see some of California. Awesome desert and mountains. Ta.
Hi there. We really enjoy following your utubes. Did you think of travelling in wesrern canada one day. Its such a beautiful area not far from you. Thanks for sharing your travels.
That volcano seems weirdly small. Smaller than the wolfe creek crater.
As usual another excellent entertaining vlog
Please come back to your second home shortly to finish that road trip of the Kimberley and the WA coast along with other parts of Australia you may wish to explore
Love you guys & thank you for your wonderful content ❤️ Hurry back to Australia soon 😘😘
Have loved your 66 journey brilliant footage so glad you have servos over there and maccas 🤪🤪🤪
Congratulations on completing that iconic journey.
Saves me from having to do it (I’m past that kind of road trip) and I don’t have to be regretful of missing it.
I always enjoy your quirky side trips to see something unexpected. Was not expecting the caldera.
And your interactions are like a comedy duo, but there’s no straight (wo)man.
The end of your comment really went off the rails there 😂
I loved watching you guys travel the world. I just hope when you say " The End" that you don't mean this is "The End!" for good? I've come to know and love you guys I couldn't bear not catching up with you guys every week 💞💞
As someone who has suffered from anxiety I wanted to let Tia know, just in case it might be useful to her or anyone else reading this, about a book that has helped me a lot. Which is ' Self Help for Your Nerves ' by Dr Claire Weekes (1903-1990), first published in 1962. Also available is an audiobook called ' Hope and Help for Your Nerves ' (a later edition I think) narrated by Dr Weekes. She explains what anxiety is and the ways it can negatively affect a person and what can be done to put it back in its place if it has become a problem. Her process worked for me as it has done for countless others. There is a Wikipedia page for her and there are well over a thousand little written reviews of her book from customers on Amazon. I love your videos you guys !
Thank you so much for this! 😊😊
You are very welcome ! I have just listened to Dr Weekes audiobook for the first time and boy was she Old School. She speaks quite emphatically ! It was a bit of a shock to me because in ' Self Help for Your Nerves ' her written word "voice" came across to me as so gentle and soothing. Anyway I wanted to say that at one point she says that a person might have to go on tranquilizers during the first weeks. That used to be the medical orthodoxy back then before people learned of the dangers of tranquilizers. I was put on them long before I had heard of Dr Weekes and I couldn't get off them quickly enough. So forewarned is forearmed as they say. Wishing you both all the best !
I look forward to your videos every week
I’m on the edge of my seat - where are you going next ???
Love your Aussie references, did Tia find that Aussie’s had a lot of chit chat ?
Are you going to spend some time with family before your next adventure?
THE BEST! Tia for scale ever!
It was a lovely journey with you guys, thank you:)
You guys always make me smile ❤
