- It's the start of 2021 and we're doing some reflecting in today's video looking back at our time in Australia. From the food, to the people, and even Vegemite, we loved our time in Australia and are excited to go back when possible! :)
Enjoy the video!

About Us:
We’re Jenny and Logan, American Millennials with a passion for traveling and eating delicious food from all around the world. Our love for travel started in the UK where we lived and worked for a while, traveling to different European cities almost every weekend. So when we went back to our “normal” lives in the US, we knew we weren’t ready to settle down. This motivated us to plan a trip around the world and then a year in Australia. We decided to give this vlogging thing a shot and have really enjoyed sharing our travel journey. Who knows where we’ll end up next, so be sure to follow along to find out! :)
It's a crime for Vegemite to be that expensive... :) Excited to head back to Australia when possible!
Any ideas on where you would like to visit next time?
@@c3029376 we had a big road trip planned for WA so definitely still want to do that!
I have accidentally bought too many jars of vegemite, happy to post you some. Happy new year, and stay safe.
Hope you get back here soon
Vegemite is amazing... how could u not like black yeast in a jar :)
Welcome new Australians for liking vegemite. Only 1 of my 4 children like vegemite. 3 are up for adoption.
Haha 😂
And rightly so...lol:)
As if anyone's going to adopt a child who doesn't like vegemite.
@@GeraldSmallbear ahahahaha!
After ten years in AU and now back in the US I miss the friendly Aussies, the food and the COFFEE.
👍 tru
Hope you make it back mate. We need more folks who love Australia
Aren’t you guys just the loveliest young couple! Please emigrate, we’d love to have you as Aussie’s
Thanks for the kind words 😊
Sorry we are full
@jack jarrad He means we're full of socialists, we don't need any more!
@jack jarraddrive around Australia like I have and you will realise why
@jack jarrad yeah we need more people as all the states have so much drinking water. Clear all the remaining forests. ruclips.net/video/vXh22BCt3ac/видео.html
We in Australia really miss all the travellers from overseas, who made our lives more cosmopolitan and interesting. Aussies also miss travelling! Lets hope the World retuns to normal soon.
Let's hope!
Best thing about Sydney's public transport are the ferries. It's like a little cruise every day.
Loved the ferries 😊
City cats in Brisbane are pretty awesome to ,fast and free
I am glad you are still making videos. You miss Australia, and Australia misses you. Hopefully you will be able to return soon.
Thanks for watching, we hope so too! 😊
You got to finish your year in Australia, once covid is over. Think about immigration, you guys are chilled out like Aussies.
We hope to come back when possible!
Honestly i do take it for granted how good the Asian food here is Australia 🇦🇺 is .
Was quite nice 😊
If you haven't yet. Look up old vegemite ads. It puts a rose on every cheek...fellow aussies who remember this? Haha
Will have to search for some!
We're Australians living in Nicaragua during the pandemic and we really miss good Asian food!
Good on you guys getting into vegemite. True blue honorary Aussies :)
Still enjoying our vegemite here in the states 😊
@@twotravelingkings can i please have link to the video where your dad tries vegemite please? as an aussie i would very much like to see that.
You should’ve stayed here in Australia - #6 would be living in a country without community transmission of COVID!
Finally, some Americans that like Vegemite
😊
Vegemite is Halal Certified if you buy it you are supporting the MURDEROUS IDEOLOGY of ISLAM!
quran.com/4/74
quran.com/8/12
@@dashcam55 You ignorant bigots always complain about it being Halal certified.... And yes, you are an ignorant bigot. Why do you not have an issue with Vegemite being KOSHER certified too? Could it be that you are an ignorant anti Muslim bigot who has no idea what you are talking about? Clearly. And any business that is worth anything will be doing what it can to expand the market for their goods. Halal certification does not change the formulae. It just lets people who follow a Kosher or Halal diet that the product is permissible to consume. The certification fees cover the cost of the inspectors who have to travel all over the country, or internationally, in order to visit the factories or farms to ensure that the foods are produced in accordance with the rules prescribed by the Kosher or Halal dietary rules. Only an ignorant bigot who has never had anything to do with a business would object to having the widest market for goods. Especially Australian owned products like Vegemite (which is owned by Bega Cheese now).
Just to let you know... Tom Hanls (yes, the actor) is a huge fan of Vegemite. So you are in good company.
We watch a food channel called Hoosier Daddy, and they just did an episode on Aussie food and really liked all of it, including the vegemite! We were very proud haha
Thanks for loving our country, hope you can make it back soon. Sending vegemite flavored hugs x
Hope we can too!
Vegemite hugs 🤔🤨 ok I'm all for Vegemite but ...no , just no ! 👎
Did you say Raleigh? Wow, I used to live in Wilson before I moved in briefly with my daughter in Raleigh! But now....I live in Menai, New South Wales AUSTRALIA!! I love it here. I retired and moved here when a woman stole my heart! ❤️ And you ARE right, the Aussie public transport system is awesome! You can get anywhere by bus or train and it isn’t that expensive. It DID take me a while to get used to Vegemite, until I was told...butter first THEN Vegemite. It takes the yeasty flavour/flavor. Enjoyed the video
Nice! 😊
Menai is part of Sydney mate! I used to live in a few suburbs before Sutherland, Mortdale, Penshurst and Arncliffe 😀
Vegemite, full of Vitamins A, E and B Complex (espechily B-12) it's also full of Electrolytes (not just common Salt), good if you are a soon to be Mum, you are a growing Kid or Teen, if you tied one on the night before and are now paying the price or if you are a Mature individual who wants to keep going.
It's good stuff 😊
It’s great for cooking too, sorry it’s so expensive in the US. Could you import it cheaper?
@@minwade5436 Got some friends and relatives who tried shipping supermarket sizes to the US and Canada, it's cheaper to pay US retail a lot of the time, heck it brakes even on price if you get someone to go to Costco and get you a muilty pack or a "Hospitality" sized tub (that start at 1kg/2.2lb) and post it yo you, to make it worth your wile you need someone at this end who can get it Wholesale if they are sending it through the Mail.
Hope you guys come back and check out Queensland. The warmest state, the friendliest state and a place with a truly remarkable status as one of the most beautiful stretch of land. The Great Barrier Reef, the Whitsundays, the Gold Coast, the Sunshine Coast, Fraser Island, ,( please tell me when to stop), beautiful one day, perfect the next.
Sounds good to us! 😊
I wouldn't say "friendliest" lol. QLD was the only state I was ever actually afraid of walking around at night. Angry, mullet wearing spastics is all I ever came across 🤣
@@bradleygraves2935 thats NSW western Sydney Mt Druitt
Vegemite toast and a glass of orange juice. Perfect morning 👌🏼
I'll be having that this morning 😊
Mighty Might is for people who don't adore the MURDEROUS IDEOLOGY of ISLAM!
@@dashcam55 or for absolutely anyone at all that enjoys the taste.
@@opt6037 he does not understand that Vegemite has no meat in it therefore is halal just like every piece of fruit. Murdoch is against the Muslim culture.
Your dad now has citizenship passing the vegemite test. For an Asian food fix have a long weekend in Atlanta. Large Korean and Japanese communities have many food markets and restaurants.
Thanks for the tip! 😊
Someone ship these yanks some Vegemite immediately!
Haha 😊
Hahaha was my comment.
Vegemite and shredded iceberg lettuce on super fresh white bread sandwiches. Yummmm!
Interesting combo!
Your dad's toast is hardcore... Even by our standards. Love it
Haha that it is!
Noticed Sydney's iconic PICCOLO BAR ( KINGS CROSS) when you were discussing coffee. You really did get about! Good luck wherever !
That we did :) Cheers
Vegemite is now back in Australian ownership. Good news. My favorite is Promite and Tomato with salt and pepper on toast. You can add Avocado as well. So glad you love our country our beaches are something special.
👍 loved the beaches
Lovely to see you guys. Have wonderful year.
You too!
And it's very good for you, kids. Thanks for elevating it a bit.
Happy to send you guys some Vegemite as a thank you for this fun video..
👍 thanks 😊
@@twotravelingkings Where would you like me to send it? 😊
Visited out of curiosity. Liked for your love of Vegemite and knowing how to eat it properly! :-)
😊
The public transport really depends on where you live in Australia. Which city, where your house and work are located, etc. For me, a car is a must.
True
Vegemite:the breakfast of champions. Happy New Year. 🤙
Happy new year! 😊
I miss the travellers who would come to Sydney. Ever since the pandemic it’s not the same. Wishing you guys well.
Have always loved your videos, Living in Melbourne myself. I found your videos fun, light hearted & informative. Please keep them coming.
Thanks so much! Having fun with the vids 😊
You guys have such great energy and have great souls. I will watch all ads to support your channel and welcome you back to Australia with open arms 🇦🇺🇦🇺
Thanks so much for the kind words and support! We appreciate it 😊
Speaking as an Australian. We miss visitors like you. After the chaos, I hope you can return. If you're in Canberra, I can act as a native guide..
Sounds good to us! 😊
You guys sound pretty chilled and look like you fit in well here in Oz. If you ever get back, head to the Shoalhaven 2.5 hours south of Sydney. You'll find the most beautiful pristine untouched beaches in the country.
Thanks for the tip!
I think I speak on behalf of a few viewers when I say would be more than happy to gift you some vegemite as a Christmas or New Years gift!! Glad to see you enjoying it
😊 thanks
Great video!
Happy New Year to you both. We hope you get to come back here again soon 😊
Happy New Year Jackie!!
Happy New Year to you both, wishing you guys a fabulous 2021. Take care, stay safe and hopefully you can return to our shores in the not too distant future (Covid depending).
Happy new year!! 😊
Hello from North Ryde. Hope you get to come back to spend the rest of your year down under.
👍
The thing u guys have which is awesome is each other. Never take that for granted the love and support u guys share shines thru on all your videos
During the strict lockdowns we have had in parts of Australia we have had to miss out on seeing our family and friends for months on end
its been a cruel experience but it makes u appreciate the many things we often take for granted in our daily lives. Thanx again for sharing your videos with us much appreciated.
Thanks so much for the kind words 😊 keeps us motivated to keep making videos!
Good morning. friend. Today, we start a great weekend with amazing videos from our friends. Thank you
😊
You guys are a credit to your country. Give Australia a real wrap. So often we get a stereotypical view. Steve Irwin,Croc Dundee(a real blast from the past) though a few actors like Hugh Jackman have changed that view. So good to see you like our 'delicacy' in Vegemite. Yes it is acquired taste and its a good way to educate everyone how to eat it. (You wouldn't put half a bottle of olive oil or mayonnaise to flavour a salad.). Less is more. Just a pity you didnt get a chance to travel more. See the tropical north. Rainforests,wildlife. Yes crocodiles too. (You just don't swim in waterways) The red centre. Uluru and other natural formations. Fringe festivals. Best is in Adelaide in Feb and March. So many other places and events. Good luck with your life in North Carolina. Hopefully all of us will one day be able to travel again.
Thanks for the kind words 😊 yes much more to see!
Happy to hear that you had a great time in Australia 🇦🇺
Good time 👍
Love your videos guys! Hope to see you back in oz sometime in the future ❤️
Thanks for the kind words! We hope so too! 😊
Two happy little vegemites 😊
Haha 👍
ALL ways enjoy your videos welcome back eny time, lots more in other parts of Australia to experience. Hope covid goes away soon and bring some friends with when you come we need more focks like you both down under!
Thanks so much for the kind words 😊
We’ll all still be here when you’re able to come back and we’ll welcome you with open arms and a jar of Vegemite :-)
Sounds good to us 😊
Happy New Year! I just enjoyed my morning flat white. ☕️☺️
Happy new year! And no need to rub it in... 😊
@@twotravelingkings 😜
Yeah we are awesome 😂.....im glad you guys had fun here !
Was a good time 😊
Sausage sizzles were spot on, same as Bunnings.🍺🍺
Awesome 👍
Aussie flat white for the win 100%!
💯 😊
Happy new year guys 💚💚💚
Happy new year!!
Your Dad is a hero! Thickly spread vegemite on buttered toast is best. Have a wonderful year.
He is! 😊 You as well, thanks for watching!
Every time I make a flat white at work I think you guys. Merry everything and happy new year!!! 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Happy new year! 😊
Vegemite, real cheese & ice berg lettuce sandwich... taste sensation
👍 sounds great
Happy New Year!
Happy new year!!
Glad you enjoyed your time in Oz, and have such positive memories of it. Australia, especially the larger cities, is a real melting pot of cuisines, and only the best cooks survive for any length of time. If you ever get back here, you'll have to try some of the other cities, as well as the regional areas.
Sounds good to us 😊
Happy New Year guys ... a great video! Hope you're both safe and sound, I might have to do something about your Vegemite shortage! 😂😎🍷
Happy New Year Dean! Hope you're safe as well. We've bought ourselves another jar for now, can't have zero vegemite in the house! 🤣
Public transport is interesting in Australia, well at least it is in Victoria. The Sydney public transport I find easier. When I was in New York, I found the subway so easy to use.
All fair points! Thanks for watching 😊
And I hope you know that you're both welcome back here any time, and I'm sure you're going to meet a whole lot of new friends to introduce you to even more experiences. Also, thanks so much for being great ambassadors for Australia in America. More please!
Thanks so much! 😊 Plenty more videos to come
Kudos to you two. Very fair Vegemite review. You’ve treated it with respect. Lots of butter, very little Vegemite. That’s the way.
😊
My favorite You Tube channel full stop. So positive, so full of joi de vivre. God bless you & come back soon
Thanks for the kind words 😊
😍 I loveeee that you're still posting about us 🇦🇺 💕 Miss you both too!!
Miss you too! 😊
You guys are lovely 😊 Honorary Aussies and great ambassadors for Vegemite! 🇦🇺 Hope that if you do get to come back, you'll be able to travel more across Australia as well as working. So much to see! Cheers from Melbourne
Thanks for the kind words! 😊
Love your videos guys! Hope you get the chance to come back over here to enjoy more of Australia. You’ll have to try QLD as well 😊 Happy New Year guys.
QLD definitely on the list! 😊
@@twotravelingkings Well, when you get here, would love to catch up... Before COVID we had an application to move to the USA for a while. Happy New Year.
Are you SURE your dad isn't an Aussie? That's some true blue vegemite on a piece of bread. Amazing.
Haha he's getting there
Vegemite and cheese on toast. YUM. and not that plastic cheese. Glad that was in no particular order because we know what would be Jenny's no.1. Have you still got those creamers in your fridge? lol. Wishing you both all the best for 2021 and hope to see you back down under.
Stay safe
Haha yes creamers still in the fridge untouched. Happy 2021!
All the very best for 2021 mates. After all we couldn't have had it worse in 2020. I drive through the Currowan bushfire area (south of Sydney) every couple of weeks. 100 miles from one end to the other some areas bring so much sadness in some areas but also some amassment at how some of it is regenerating. Wish you were here to see it happening.
👍
You both look like a very nice and loving couple and we Aussies would love to welcome you back. Please stay safe over there.
Thanks so much for the kind words 😊 looking forward to coming back when possible
I hope you decide to come back when things open up again to pick up some more Vegemite and have a flat white coffee. I am sure there would be 5 things Australia would miss about you two as you seem like very lovely people.
Cheers 😊
Another Aussie. Hear. I love that this video is spot on.
Thanks for watching! 😊
Enjoyed your video...well done. We are Aussies missing America, similar story but in reverse. Cheers Mike
Haha thanks for watching! 😊
I’ll look into the postage to you guys for vegemite! I’ll keep you updated!
You're too kind, thanks for watching 😊
You are welcome back anytime, it’s a big country, you have to go to Tassie
Sounds good to us! 😊
Yep definitely, it's a hidden treasure.
Your dad is a legend
It's true :)
Aussie here. Had a friend who would always have a salad sandwich instead of Mayo a layer of Vegemite. Was crazy at first, but wasn't horrible.
Sounds interesting
Hi, I love your channel.
I have 2 quick questions for you two, guys:
1) Compared to Australia, how's the quality of life in the USA in general?
2) Based on your experience, who's got the higher daily buying power, the Australian or the American after health costs, education costs etc. are taken into account?
Thanks for taking the time to answer those questions if you can.
Seb
Thanks for the support and yeah nah life's good mate. And not too sure about buying power to he honest!
Hopefully you were introduced to cheese & Vegemite sandwiches. A staple of every Aussie kids life. But toasted cheese & Vegemite sandwiches go down a treat too. Especially after a big night out on the grog.
Of course 😊
You guys are awesome. 👍👍🤗
Vegemite? You guys have been Aussiefied. Good on ya!
Love our vegemite 😊
Happy new year guys! I hope you can make it back here one day. With regards to Vegemite, you can now get a salt-reduced version of it in supermarkets, and if you make it to Adelaide, the Central Market has amazing coffee beans =)
We do too! 😊
Here's something you should try for breakfast or brunch, a poached or fried egg on toast with Vegemite and avocado and crispy bacon on the side so good regards David.
Sounds good!
I'm glad someone showed you how to spread your Vegemite
Love it 😊
Happy new year to both Iam glad you came to Australia, well it's first day of 2021, where in summer now, but so far it's pretty mild, a lot of rain, last year we were in drought with wild fires, Australia is known for sweeping droughts and flooding rains! I followed your videos hope one day you will came back!
Us too 😊
@@twotravelingkings next time try some more regional areas you might be surprised, coffee might cost you few more bucks but have been told is still pretty good at least where I live.
You guys are such a nice couple. I was just eating some scrambled eggs on top of Vegemite toast for brekky. It's good!
Thanks for the kind words 😊
Enjoy life and experiences you both seem an excellent couple. From down under
Cheers 😊
On the lid of Vegemite or perfect with eggs, that is my fave topping for a bit of Vegemite today, especially poached or even soft boiled and scooped out!
Thanks for information
👍
Happy Easter, from Melbourne
😊
I'd be proud to call you 2 as Mates!
😊👍
amazing that your americans and that you like vegemite !!!
your an awesome couple hope you both return to Australia someday
We doo too 😊
Youse were the first reaction videos I focused on RUclips. Wondering where youse disappeared to. Goodluck for future adventures.
I feel a gofund me might be necessary to finance your vegemite habit. 🇦🇺
👍
Toast, butter, vegemite, avocado. Da bomb!
Very good!
Vegemite works as a hot drink too if you're ever feeling adventurous.
Will have to try it!
Thought i was watching Anna Kendrick for a minute. Glad you guys had a good time while you were here
😊 thoroughly enjoyed it
We use an aeropress at home which works really well for our flat white needs, and they are very cheap and great for traveling! They make a really good cup.
Might have to try that!
Back in the day during poor times people used to add vegemite to water and make a cheap soup, tastes pretty ordinary but you would often find potato, carrot, celery in with it, still not a great soup but if you were poor that was dinner, vegemite on toast with an egg on top is also great or better still do that on a crumpet!
Sounds tasty 😊
You guys are loveable. Sorry to introduce a sour note but it's hard to know what being Australian is now after 75 years of determinedly indiscriminate post WWW2 mass immigration, along with legislatively coerced multiculturalism, but I'm glad someone is so generous as to express appreciation of it. As the decades rolled on I switched from vegemite with slabs of melted butter on crunchy white bread toast to Promite and avocado on bread. Now I use neither as I discovered Japanese Miso in all its variety - it has more subtle flavour and I suspect is more nutritious with probiotic benefits. It can be used the same way as vegemite.
😊
Lot's of ways to eat Vegemite but my favourite. Still warm fresh uncut white bread. Cut a slice. A spread of butter or margarine, a spread of Vegemite and a layer of cheese cut from a block, fold or add another slice of bread and presto you have one seriously tasty sandwich, Vegemite West Aussies style.
