Don’t worry my friends, we’re already on another trip together and just filmed the most Yes Theory experience in Italy which only took us 2 hours by flight to get to, hence wanting to be in Europe :) we’re just finding a new home and elevated purpose ⚡️❤️ See you in 2 weeks for the adventure!
Yeah hi I'm 12 and I watch you since 3 years , will you give me a shout-out plzzzz
Wait so what happened with the yes theory house? Is it still available?
Ive been watching you guys for about 5 years and I completely understand what you're going through. Change is inevitable and can lead to the best experiences. Congrats on your first place Thomas!
It's very easy to get comfortable with stagnancy, takes balls to change your life. In any way.
How do you justify your excessive traveling? You are trying to combat global warming no?
I almost never comment--I'm one of those weirdos who observes quietly, but I'm compelled to add this note, despite the possibility of it not being seen by those behind Yes Theory and Seek Discomfort. I'm not within what I assume is your target demographic. I'm a woman in my 40s. While I openly admit, I haven't been a follower for years (I only found your channel last year), the direction you've been heading opens up the possibilities to so many people. Your stories and challenges transcend culture, ethnicity, and the (often foolish) boundaries we humans create. You've inspired millions of people, including me, by simply transforming ideas into action. On behalf of the millions of people you've touched, thank you for what each of you does--in front of the camera and those behind the scenes. We need this, now more than ever. Here's to each one of us: may we achieve our dreams and goals one by one. Cheers!
Wow this is an amazing and thoughtful comment. Thank you so much for sharing this, it really does mean the world at this point to feel supported through change, it helps feed so much more courage to pursue it fully and with an open heart.
The change so far has felt both right and rewarding since it happened and I really can’t wait for it to be felt in the videos!! 🙏
Well said, we all need to stand together to fight the distraction of humanity and thank you for your contribution with this comment. 🙏🏽💚🌱
So beautifully said! One of my favorite comments ever ♥️
Well said and I couldn’t agree more!
I too a woman in my 40s came across this channel and love the comment.
For me, one of the hardest things about becoming an adult was realising nothing lasts forever and everything is transient. Eventually this helped me learn acceptance, but it was a harsh reality at first. Everything is always ok in the end. love your channel and your guys' attitude to life. You're all very human. Sending you all the very best.
As a teenager i was sold on that “forever” lie. In my late 20s, I too began to learn that there’s no such thing. In my 30s I was fairly lost but became busy and built a career, corrected some bad decisions and mistakes. In my 40s I realised I have always had this sense of not fitting in anywhere. Born on a land that I have zero cultural association with, from ancestry that I have zero connections with. Spending a decade researching my family history, only to meet brick walls very early on in as soon as one century.
My acceptance of everything in one basket is that the world will still turn in what is an inconsequential series of events and experiences. Good or bad. In a thousand years no one here will remember you, and anything you did will be forgotten. So I have accepted that my existence is a perfect accident, and that we all drift through our lifetime until we cease to exist.
@@whatsstefon I love it, that was my exact conclusion after my arduous journey so far.
I mean there are relationships and bonds that last till death
I wish I had the kind of friendships these guys have. Knowing that your friends will celebrate all your wins right beside you.
At 55 years old, YesTheory has inspired me to do more, be more, travel and explore the world more. But most of all, it has taught me to give more. Since watching this channel, I have sold/donated everything I owned, left my job and set out to BE in the world. For the past three years, I have traveled to more than 30 countries; I have danced in Ibiza, ran a marathon on the Great Wall of China, walked for 40 days across Spain on El Camino de Santiago, trekked the Sahara in North Africa on camel back, donated my time and expertise in the medical field, as well as built houses for the homeless in Mexico (where I now live)... . And when people ask me what I hope to BECOME in this world... my answer is always: YES!
Amazing!!
Thank you for your story 💜 thats amazing
thank you for sharing!
🙌🏼🙏🏽
You give me hope 🙂
The people saying "where's the old Yes Theory?" kinda missed the point that the channel matured along with the guys, and their content is a reflection of the growth and maturity that comes with age.
The only constant in life is change - Heraclitus.
Well said ✨👍👌
Some people are perhaps in a different stage of growth, but if they follow at their own pace they will get there.
I would probably like the care free yes theory the immature ones, the one standing in the airport with signs, the outgoing and not the story tellers.
Well put, there is no such thing as a stagnant existence.
Very well said. Love this
Today I handed my notice in from a stable 8 year job, to say I was scared, worried, anxious is an understatement. From seeing this pop up on my feed and having watched your videos before I just said, YES, just do it. So I did it. Today I quit my job for as you say in this video a new chapter. Thank you for the inspiration.
This is an old comment and I doubt that you will see this but what you wrote about quitting your job for a new chapter hit me somewhere deep. I’ve always been afraid of change and so hearing about people like you making that massive and terrifying jump into the relative unknown is extremely inspiring, especially to me as an 18 year old trying to begin my life. Thank you very much for writing what you did.
its only terrifying if you see it terryfing ! if you try to change the way you see things little by little it helps a lot on the long run ;D good luck and have fun in becoming a better self !
I can't believe that I only discovered you guys last week. I am a veteran travel junkie to 120+ countries over 40 years. I never thought I would see people doing a VLOG from Transnistria. Mind you when I started travelling the internet had not been invented! I think you are just going through a chapter of growth and amending your channel/s to keep it relevant in this fast changing world. No doubt that you will do another upgrade further down the road. Keep up the great work and have fun at your own pace.
Vaaauuuu👏👏👏🤩120+travelling
Wow that many countries, must have been amazing! Would love to watch your experiences if you ever decide to document them here on RUclips!
Life isn’t about fighting change, it IS change, and one of the things I most like about Yes Theory, and you Thomas, is that consistent openness to leap into these new chapters and not get stuck in the past.
Entering this new phase requires letting go of how things were but I don’t see it as a loss. I see it as creating space for all of the beautiful memories and experiences to come...
So welcome to Paris bro!!! So excited about this new chapter. Paris is a moveable feast.
More Nathaniel and Thomas videos? Please and thank you :)
For me this is the best. While I joined with the "old" Yes Theory even before you even had 500k subscribers, It was never because of the content itself. But the energy, and emotional intelligence that you could feel. In fact, as you say, while Thomas is saying they have changed, it's not an artificial change. It's part of life, and growth. And Yes Theory just keeps getting better and better.
Also, it was because of Yes Theory I got recommended to your channel, which is absolutely incredible. Hope to see more collabs between you guys, specially now that you are neighbours ;)
Woohoo ! I hope there will soon be some inspirationals Nathaniel+Thomas events to join in Paris ! Des salons pour refaire le monde en plein air par exemple ? :) Bravo à vous deux pour ce grand pas dans la vie !

YOU WONT WIN AN ARGUMENT WITH HIM & YOU CANT DEFEND ANY OF YOUR SINS TO HIM. YOU'RE NOT A GOOD PERSON, I'M NOT A GOOD PERSON... ONLY GOD IS GOOD! WE'RE ALL GUILTY WITHOUT ACCEPTING JESUS' SACRIFICE FOR OUR SINS!

STOP IDOLIZING & WORSHIPING THESE PEOPLE!
JESUS CHRIST ALONE DIED FOR YOUR SINS & WAS RESURRECTED FROM THE GRAVE! HE IS ALIVE & COMING BACK VERY VERY SOON WITH JUDGEMENT (THESE ARE END TIMES)! PREPARE YOURSELVES, TURN FROM SIN & RUN TO JESUS! HE KNOWS YOUR PAIN & TROUBLES, HE WANTS TO HEAL & RESTORE YOU! TALK TO HIM LIKE A BEST FRIEND! ASK HIM TO REVEAL HIMSELF TO YOU & HELP YOU TO BELIEVE IF YOU DOUBT! DON'T WAIT TO CRY OUT! NO ONE IS PROMISED TOMORROW! HE LONGS FOR YOU TO INVITE HIM IN, HE LOVES YOU MORE THAN ANY PERSON EVER COULD, HE CREATED YOU!

Literally though about you, when I heard paris!
“We grew up together” that hit me hard. I started watching you all when I was 14. I am now 20. I took a leap of faith and moved to Berlin to work. You guys have changed my life and I’m forever grateful. I hope that one day I can meet you guys and thank you in person :). You have changed many lives and that’s ultimately what matters!
@Uzodator Quattrucci I work in digital sales!
I also live in Berlin - born and raised here 😊
@@n.r.5200 it’s a city full of vibrant minds. I really love it, of course it can be a bit overwhelming sometimes. But I think we all learned from the same people to seek that discomfort! 😂
@In Common hallo meine freunde!! I started learning German quite a while ago and still am learning the little sayings here but the language is very expressive!! I recommend coming to Germany if you ever get the chance and practicing. Another thing that helped me was German speaking shows and music. You have to train your brain to recognize German words.
SAME! So beautiful and drives me to do crazy fun stuff.
I am 54 and found your channel by chance, during the early covid lockdowns. It was sitting in my recommended on youtube (The Lost Pyramid). Still here 2 years later enjoying your travel videos. You guys are discovering and connecting with your conscious selves as you journey. Listen to that voice/gut feeling about what is the next pathway in your lives.
I just discovered Yes Theory a couple of months ago. I am a retired travel photographer and writer. At 71 with still a desire to travel, I have not done so since Covid. Since subscribing I have been living vicariously, randomly watching my way through your years on RUclips. I love your focus on relationships with those around you wherever you happen to be. In my mind I see you seek discomfort, but create comfort through the process. I look forward to watching your future and where it takes us
Change is probably one of the biggest discomforts in live. That’s why people want “old Yes theory” videos. Glad you said yes to this new chapter, I’m sure everything that comes, will be even better.
true, OLD YES THEORY style never back, but it EVOLVED.
Tbh i felt disconnected to the old yes theory. Probably i also grew up with them. Covid affected everyone of us. After a long time I felt like this video of yes theory we connected with.

Do you want to accept Islam as your religion and become a Muslim?
@@naan2580 no thanks

Islam is the only true religion. I want you to go to paradise after death and be protected from hell. But for that you have to accept Islam as your religion.
Congrats guys on the new chapter! So interesting how many of us are trying to learn how to just BE instead of always feeling like we have to be doing something ❤️ learning to be more child like everyday.
Ayo, I didn't expect you here Matti
Matti!!
Love this impute here how true and amazing it is people taking the steps necessary to be the best of themselves! Matti both you and yes theory are great inspirations to both myself and many others thanks for all you do and i wish you continued success in the future!
Eyyyy Matti!!👊👊
Matti and Pete, another joyfull friendship to learn from!
I'm leaving America after living here for 5 years and going back to my home country, the Philippines. Like Thomas, America had been a country of opportunity and growth but I'm yet to go adventuring somewhere I can call home -- it might be the Philippines, or somewhere else. I don't know yet. I'm on a student visa here in the States and it's expiring soon. I prayed that my company would sponsor me but it didn't seem like it was happening so I was resigned to just accepting the fact that I had to go back to the Philippines. I'm not too excited about it but this video gave me the courage to look at things from a different point of view. I hope that I can look back in hindsight and be thankful for the unanswered prayer of being able to stay in the States. Thank you Thomas and the rest of the crew!
The Philippines is better because it has a lower cost of living.
@@bicyclist2 you also make way less on average
go to philippines pls pls 🇵🇭🇵🇭🇵🇭 us people so friendly!!!!
@@Gausdave213 it's proportional
The only people in the US who have the opportunities are the wealthy elites. They have all the opportunities to commit crimes and get away with it. This country only caters to them while we regular people are just being exploited by the wealthy!
I've only been watching for a few days now, but I find your channel amazing. As a 62 year old father, I find this video most heart warming because what you are going through now, my kids also went through. They are the better for it, and you will be too. God bless you in your new travels.
I like the new Yes theory format better, the old focused on doing things that looked cool or would get views, just pure fun. But the new format is more honest, authentic, and is more meaningful, and full of nuggets of wisdom.
hmm thats weird. I personally think that they never really changed. They just matured in all aspects. Which is a normal thing but still too hard too grasp for an average GenZer.
@@GregorioStyreco yes, then we agree, they have changed, becoue they have matured, and that's a good thing. My point was that I like matured content better, i only used different words my friend. And I am far from Gen z
@@GregorioStyreco they are totally cringe, still doing this shit..

@@princekely7308 father less activities.
I just turned 28 in October. Life got put on hold right before I turned 19 for a very very long time. Can't fathom all of the accomplishments the crew has check marked over the years. What you have all created is nothing short of a cultural masterpiece. Embrace, and cherish all of those experiences!
I have a similar origin story to your's, though mine outdates your's by over 3 decades. I was born in Japan to a Japanese mom, and American dad back in January of 1960. My native tongue is Japanese, but at almost age 7 my father was transferred to work in Hawai'i. In over 56 years I have never had the funds to return there. I attended college here from 2019 thru 2021 earning a degree in architectural engineering & CAD, and during this time in college I won a scholarship to attend a university in Tochigi, Japan (my mom's home prefecture) during the summer of 2020. Covid hit in March of that year, and all scholarships were canceled. That was my one and only chance to go back to the country of my birth. I am almost 63 now, and I figure if I work real hard for the next 5 years I may be able to visit Japan one last time. I have something to work for, and to look forward to. I am a recent subscriber, but you have become an inspiration to me. Best wishes to you from Kailua, Hawai'i.
I hope you get to go back to Japan soon good luck.
Hi there, I have no idea about your financial situation, and apologies if this information isn't useful to you, but I wanted to mention that Japan can be done very cheaply and I don't know if a lot of people realise that. ... last time I went I spent $250 on accommodation for two weeks (Hotel backpackers Toyo in Osaka - private room with aircon, shared bathrooms) and less than $500 on flights from Australia (no idea where you're based of course) by hitting up the Jetstar flight specials. Airline points is always another option, which can be gathered over time for basically nothing but planning and time. I think a lot of people think they need ten thousand or something to visit. But a meager trip done in the right way can often be done for less than you might think.
I hope you can get there more often than just once more in your life!
I went in 2018 to Osaka on Scoot airlines from Honolulu and paid $550 r/t. I rented a room on AirBnb for $33/nt. Had to use google translate 😂. I loved it. I see prices up on flights. I hope you get to go one day! My brother-in-law is half Japanese as well as my boyfriend in Hawaii at the time. I am also 63.
Every time I watch YesTheory, I feel an Adrenaline rush. The storytelling and the messages are just perfect!
Indeed! As they are always chasing that discomfort which makes them feel alive and connected with those they wouldn't have met otherwise. Chase that discomfort and you will feel that excitement and inspiration in your own life

I start with $2,500 at May 18 and I'm almost at $21k now! all thanks to Patricia
Wow that's awesome because I Started with $5,000 at the same time. Now at 52,000$.
I've really just been following the advice of Mrs Patricia and another youtuber. The plays I do myself I typically base on my own research and I tend to buy at a buy price I feel is just then sell when I see major percentage gain wetter that be in weeks or months. I'm holding some long term like DKNG
Look at the company's financials, check to see what their level of debt is, look for press releases, earnings releases and any news pertinent to the company. Also research the people who own it the company.
Aside from that, pay attention to the trade volume. Numbers increase when a stock is about to blow up. Examine trends on the graphs as well
As A Viewer & Now Subscriber, I'm So Proud of All of You. I Can't Wait To Go Through And See What You Guys Have Been Recently Done. Go Forth & Set The World On Fire.
Oh man, this is so wholesome. Well done, I love you guys for the amazing path in life we all walk. Enjoy the ride and follow your hearts!
At 54, I do have regrets. Regrets that I didn’t pull the trigger earlier in my life to make similar changes that you have courageously have made. Anyone watching and reading this. Don’t be ok with the same thing. With all the carp out on RUclips today, teaching our youth what NOT to do. FINALLY a message that is teaching our kids not to be afraid of change and to keep looking for what’s best for,yourself. Honestly, I am so impressed with this video and how powerful this can be. We need this right now, and I cannot thank you enough for sharing this with all of us. Just awesome.
it's amazing how the "forced" introspection of the last few years has effected everyone in their own way. wishing you the best of luck on your new journey!
This is so true. I found out who my real friends are, where I get the most joy from etc. I stopped partying so much, started focussing on my hobbies way more and connect with my friends better and not just through drinking and partying.
Yeah there's infinite stories of people quitting jobs, relationships and other things in life because they realised they needed something else. IIRC a similar thing happened after the Spanish Flu in 1918 or 1919 or something!
Affected*
Indeed..
As for myself, my whole purpose in life has changed. I have become a new person. Almost all of my principles have changed. I was able to find God, connect with him, and build a relationship with him. If you ask my friends, they will tell you that I have became a completely new person. I’m nothing like what I used to be, and I’m happy with how this pandemic has shaped me, and I’m very excited for what’s yet to come 🙏🏻
@@slapjackq8392 Can you kind of summarise how this happened? Just curious about the main reasons, like a sentence or two, not a whole life story or anything :p
So much growth over the years. You are all so strong to communicate honestly about your struggles and how you stick to your roots still!
The most beautiful and inspiring thing about your channel is the love and support you have for each and the celebrating of each others achievements and goal.
This video is making me realize that I'm going through the same thing. I'm lost. I've started laying in bed longer not wanting to get up in the mornings, I've stopped working out, I've created poor lazy habits, I feel a gap between my friends that's getting larger as well as myself getting more and more distant from who I actually am. I need some change in my life. This "sadness" is catching up to me. I'm trying to deny being depressed, but all the signs are pointing to depression.
I can resonate with how you're feeling.
Let me know what you do to make it feel better :)
@@pikachuislost I'm in very similar circumstances, if u wanna talk tell me.
exactly the same is happing to me
Start by doing some small things that you like and make you feel better
I think this is happening more and more lately with those of us on who have been on RUclips for some time. Can’t wait to see what you create next!
Yeah. Remember Nigahiga, Tyler Oakley, Jenna Marbles, Smosh and all the others from back in the day? Time flies...

Going to miss the old Yes Theory days
I just wanted to say that I actually found your channel through your new content - I was impressed by the openness and willingness to learn everyone involved with Yes Theory showed on each adventure. You all are awesome!
I only first discovered your channel about a month ago, but seemingly I discovered it at the greatest time of need in my life. Recently losing my father, I have been struggling to cope with a world of grief, change and new responsibilites. Your channel gives me hope. It gives me newly found dreams. Listening to your lines about forgetting what it was like to be young really hits home to me. Change is necessary; a part of life. But you don't have to forget where you came from, and what makes you, YOU. I am glad I found your channel, and I am glad you are making a return to what makes you happy. Keep doing what you do, becuase you really do have an amazing impact on this world.
I for one don't really 'miss the old yes theory', I really like the travel videos and the extraordinary quality of content that you provide on the consistent basis nowadays. Getting to see more of cool places and cultures through your videos is what I like most
WOW! That quote from TS Elliot: “we shall not cease from exploration. And at the end of all that exploring, we shall arrive back to where it all started and know the place for the very first time.” - having travelled for 3 years, since arriving back home I can 100% relate to this
I love your quote by T.S. Eliot. What an interesting group of people you are. "Yes Theory" such an apropos name for your channel, positive, life affirming and embracing. As someone who has just experienced a stroke and currently have a degree of left side paralysis - I can only hope for a degree of recovery, for strength to TRY, and the GRATITUDE for all the blessings I've had and will have. Thanks for the inspiration!!
I'm glad you're all allowing yourselves to evolve. I just found your channel a few days ago and have binged watched so much. Whatever type of content you guys make - it'll be awesome. No matter the places or the stories. Drive forward in life and enjoy it! :)
As much as I love the early Yes Theory with strangers content, I really love the documentaries that you've been doing. Keep doing what you love! Love from the Philippines!
Agreeee! Was popping down here to say "sorry for not sharing the love sooner!" - > Yes Theory Crew: love love love you 'new' content.
if anything i love them more, the introspection speaks to me more since thats just my personality i guess
Really wished they came here for adventures

I was one of those who commented "I miss the old Yes Theory" but it all makes sense now. Happy to see you grow and explore yourself.
great comment
Thank you for posting this. It's important to recognize when one chapter is ending and another begins. I'm going through this right now (spent 5 years in San Diego trying something new) and am now ready to move on. Growth is natural. It's part of seeking discomfort :)
Oh wow! This video made me so emotional. What a similar story to me. I’m moving to Singapore after 21 years in Melbourne, Australia. I’m looking forward to my new chapter in life. Thank you for all your videos, really brought joy to my life. Sending you love and light for your new life in Europe and reconnecting with your inner child 💕✨
Happy to see you follow your heart ✊❤

IF YOU ARE IN CHRIST ON JUDGEMENT DAY GOD WILL SEE YOU AS HIS PERFECT SON (SINLESS SINCE YOUR SINS ARE COVERED BY JESUS' OFFERING). YOU CAN ALSO CHOOSE TO REJECT JESUS' GIFT/SACRIFICE & PAY FOR YOUR OWN SIN WITH DEATH (HELL) BUT THAT SEEMS PRETTY FOOLISH! GOD SEES & HEARS EVERYTHING YOU HAVE SAID & DONE. YOU WONT WIN AN ARGUMENT WITH HIM & YOU CANT DEFEND ANY OF YOUR SINS TO HIM. YOU'RE NOT A GOOD PERSON, I'M NOT A GOOD PERSON... ONLY GOD IS GOOD! WE'RE ALL GUILTY WITHOUT ACCEPTING JESUS' SACRIFICE FOR OUR SINS!
MUHAMMAD DIDN'T DIE FOR YOUR SINS, BUDDHA DIDN'T DIE FOR YOUR SINS, NO PASTOR/NO PRIEST/NO SAINT/NO ANCESTOR DIED FOR YOUR SINS, MARY DIDN'T, THE POPE DIDN'T EITHER, NO IDOLS OR FALSE gods DIED FOR YOUR SINS, NO MUSICIAN OR CELEBRITY DIED FOR YOUR SINS, NO INFLUENCER OR RUclips STAR DIED FOR YOUR SINS, NO SCIENTIST OR POLITICIAN DIED FOR YOUR SINS, NO ATHLETE OR ACTOR DIED FOR YOUR SINS! STOP IDOLIZING & WORSHIPING THESE PEOPLE!
JESUS CHRIST ALONE DIED FOR YOUR SINS & WAS RESURRECTED FROM THE GRAVE! HE IS ALIVE & COMING BACK VERY VERY SOON WITH JUDGEMENT (THESE ARE END TIMES)! PREPARE YOURSELVES, TURN FROM SIN & RUN TO JESUS! HE KNOWS YOUR PAIN & TROUBLES, HE WANTS TO HEAL & RESTORE YOU! TALK TO HIM LIKE A BEST FRIEND! ASK HIM TO REVEAL HIMSELF TO YOU & HELP YOU TO BELIEVE IF YOU DOUBT! DON'T WAIT TO CRY OUT! NO ONE IS PROMISED TOMORROW! HE LONGS FOR YOU TO INVITE HIM IN, HE LOVES YOU MORE THAN ANY PERSON EVER COULD, HE CREATED YOU!

Can we all appreciate the fact that Yes Theory never disappointed us with their content 😊 👏
❤️❤️❤️
@@YesTheory I love you guys. Can't wait to see where the new chapter takes you guys!
🤷

It's all about balance.... All the best in your next adventure... Returning to your roots and connecting with your loved ones ❤️
thank you yes theory this has given me the motivation to visit my grandmother who with each day loses more and more memory, while saving to go off to college i worry a plane ticket would be too much but yes theory made me realize we need to cherish the best moments in our lives, thank you and continue to inspire others.
This was one of the most important videos you guys have published to date. This came from the heart. This is growth. This explains to younger generations that humans evolve, change, and yearn for new adventures. And it’s okay!
yesssss!!
Their channel aint the same
Massive respect for staying true to yourself and making those decisions. 💯
As a creator, I know the feeling of living up the the expectations of your audience and it takes a lot of courage to stay true and put your own life first.
Excited for the years to come on this channel! 🙌🏽
Found your channel recently, you and yes theory have changed my life and my habits
Hey Niklas!
Are you up for Guiness World Record Marathon Challenge :)?
There is no current record for full Marathon run on sand.
Lmk when you get this. DM on insta if you're up for it!

I invite you to accept Islam as your religion.
Do you want to accept Islam as your religion and become a Muslim?
@@naan2580 is this meant to be a joke?
Amen! Well said and fully agree. Best Life to you All!
What a beautiful way of putting such a hard, sad but also nostalgic story. Touched us too well.
I’ve only just found your channel and I love what it’s become. Thank you for sharing this part of your journey with us.
I’m in my early 40’s, married with 2 teenagers, and a great career. It was your videos that helped me to set an early retirement plan so that we can travel the world and experience new experiences, so thank you. I’m looking forward to watching the next part of your journey - congrats!
A great career? Why brag :p
“There’s a time in our lives when we identify when one chapter is ending, and that it’s time for another to begin” I felt that wholeheartedly when I moved 3000 miles from home.
Crazy to imagine we’re the same age. I’ve watched and essentially grown along side you guys. You gave me inspiration to lead a life that was outside my comfort zone. I’m excited for wherever your journey takes you. Finding who you are is the most important journey we take in this life. Thank you sharing your journey thus far
I rather live in my comfortzon
@@-_YouMayFind_- The comfort zone is a beautiful place, but nothing really grows there - Gina Milicia
I recently stumbled across Yes Theory scrolling videos of Victoria Falls. I'm 65 and going on my first epic adventure in May. I'll be visiting London, Amsterdam, and Victoria Falls. Loving your videos. Much respect for how you balance having fun while trying to make the world a better place.
Best of luck. I hope u have the time of your life and enjoy every moment of your journey
I think the people craving “old yes theory” missed the message of the whole channel. They weren’t happy when things got out of their comfort zone… you guys produced more passionate projects that were creative and culture driven and I love you for that growth! Do what you love so you love what you do! Happy for you guys
Yeah, true cause you can't expect the same (ex: you cannot be a child forever or young forever), which is why life is full of ups & downs and something out of our comfort zones.
Ehh, I think what concerned a lot of people was that their content felt more soulless for a while - maybe not soulless, but not Yes Theory. They were videos that any youtuber could have and had done. Specifically, a good example would be the "we're spies today" episode where they learned "how to be spies." Was a fun video, but felt like any channel could have done that video. I love these guys and I'm really excited for what they're going to do next, there was just a period where it felt like (and it seems Thomas basically said this) they were kind of just creating content to create content and see what was liked. I really hope they do mature their content and do the more human videos they used to.
And there are absolutely many videos that feel quintessentially yes Theory, like their visit to the country that doesn't technically exist and met an old woman who took them in as her grandsons, so beautiful.
@@lukejackson3901 Ah yes on the last paragraph you mean the unrecognized country called Transnistria
I felt the same way about identity and feeling so lost. Thank you for this, you have kind of explained how I internally feel and gave me motivation with life.
Yes this struck a chord for me too. I'm 29 and I've been doing a job for the last 3 years that I used to love but now don't connect with it the same way and feel I've ended up living in an area geographically, largely because of my job, that doesn't feel right for me anymore. I am really questioning what and where is next. I don't yet have the answer but hope I will find it soon.
Being on your 20s and already able to do the things you guys in Yes Theory did is an achievement.
Oh my gosh - I am binging on your videos on this last day of 2022 and can’t imagine spending my time doing anything else right now. I have not seen any of your old ones.
But what you are doing right now is important- it’s critical for all of us to reconnect as human beings. To truly understand that we all have a story to share.
Your message is so very important and it’s so much deeper than the average travelogue. It’s about people and what their lives are like- reminding us that we are all in this together.
I am recommending your channel to my friends. Please know that what you are doing is of great value- you are sharing the Human Story told by many different voices.
So powerful to know that it's time to step away from these thrilling journeys, but also giving space for younger/newer artists to step in and continue on their own path.
Your philosophy of seek discomfort was what pushed me to go for culinary school. I'm thankful for the chapter you shared with us and wish you great comfort in your newest chapter
Thanks for sharing this moment brother. Its been nothing short of a treat! I look forward to the next path, the bigger path. Our path to say yes, even as we grow. Grow old, grow closer to those we care for, and grow in our dreams!
This was a great video. Opened my eyes. I am 38 but I experience a lot of the things you had described. I just didn’t realize that until I watched this video. Thank you Thomas. You are an inspiration too so many. Thank you for all you do!
Thanks so much for telling your story. I'm 52 years old and I'm changing my whole life up right now, and I'm extremely excited about it! These last 8-9 years in Seattle have been very challenging and in the last three years I was in the room twice in one year when my dad, and then my mom, passed away. After my mom passed, two weeks later, pandemic lockdowns happened, and I felt so much the same as you. I struggled for connection. I yearned to travel, and yet, I wasn't able. I'm grateful that I was safe and doing something I loved.
But now, at 52, with most of my family gone, I have the opportunity to return to Germany, where I was born. Even though I am American, I'm going with confidence that I will find the job that I need. I'm leaving in 2-3 weeks for London, where I will be going to school for one month on a intensive course to teach English as a 2nd language so that when I land in Berlin later this year, I'll be able to find work. Last Friday I quit my job of six years, in a career field that I have been in for over 30. I'm reinventing myself, I'm giving everything up. I'm starting fresh, and I absolutely cannot wait. Thanks for your story, I am encouraged that other people are also shooting for the stars after these last few challenging years. Cheers my brother, I can't wait to see what you all have coming next!
Sending you well wishes!!
Wow amazing! I’m 53 and I’m in the same place Thomas was before he moved to Paris. Stuck and not financially able to travel. I’m a entertainment photographer covering red carpet professionally for 12 years based in NYC. I don’t want to be photographing celebrities until I’m 60. No thanks! I’m still young, attractive woman who don’t even look my own age at all whatsoever and physically fit. And yet, I’m still trying to figure out my next step. Something exciting and new but have no idea what? Your story gives me hope that something will come up that I’ll finally have the answers I seek. Thank you for sharing and best wishes!
Welcome back to Europe! Yes Theory, it‘s been tough on everyone, including you. Seeking discomfort is important, but receiving comfort, especially in tough times, is just as essential. I wish you all the best then, now and in the future! Greetings from Luxembourg ☺️
Good for you all for following your passions. What a great message. All the best and I’ll keep watching!
Every time I watch your videos I get so emotional because I have grown up watching you guys and you guys have helped me, like many others, through so much. the only way im able to put the way your videos make me feel is its the same feeling you get when you go to Disney and see the fireworks as an adult.... everyone is told when you grow up you need to work, you need to make money, start a family.. you get stuck in the same routine. but when you go to Disney and see the firework show, you get a sense of being a kid again... dreaming, believing you can do things you never think is possible and you get hope. hope that you can turn your dreams into a reality and find yourself among it all... that's the feeling I get from your videos and I have for years.
thank you for always being honest and open and for sharing all of your journeys. they have helped me and so many other people learn to dream again and make goals that we never thought we could achieve.
The best storytellers in the world. Here’s to another 7 years, however they may look
Thank you for this vídeo guys! I will always support u, and i think you are a 100% right to peruse whatever brings u joy! It s beautiful to see this growth and transformation a long the years! Again thank you for sharing
Thank you for being real and vulnerable!I resonnate with much that you say. A story epressed in a new way. I admire Yes Theory so much!
I love this video so much. Pure honesty and respect between friends were shown to everyone and every part were greatly appreciated.
My parents just moved out of my childhood home and I too fee disconnected with who I was and in a way confused on what is now home. Glad you’re looking out for yourself and making the journey back to your roots
I love all your videos. I enjoy how, through them, we can see you developing, and the truly meaningful things you do - for yourselves and for so many others!
I just subscribed not even 14 hours ago. I am glad it was ( 15 minutes to go. Lol) Sunday. Totally hooked. I've been binge watching. I wish all the best to them. and all that helped these guys through their journeys. Amazing of how much of an impact that people can make in life when they they all pull together. So inspiring too.
Man relate hugely to this. Been thinking of focusing my life back in Italy 🇮🇹 good luck with everything!
This feels so special. I began watching you guys when I was 15, feeling so overwhelmed with joy, excitement and inspiration as I say what life had to offer through your videos. Still in high school, I didn’t feel like I could accomplish that, that I couldn’t grab the joy of life like you did. After my mom’s passing in summer before I started university, I made one promise: to feel as inspired and joy-filled with life again once, just once, like how I talked to my mom with so much inspiration after watching that first ever video of you guys. I just finished my bachelors in university, went solo travelling to South America on or five months (currently watching this from Bolivia before flying back home to on Thursday), turned 22 on this trip and for the first time in years I felt that same excitement and inspiration for life. After years of watching all your videos, I took the leap of faith: solo travelling is not something to be afraid of and strangers are only friends you haven’t met yet. I can now proudly say, all of that is true and travelling gives you some of the best inspiration, joy and happiness, that I wasn’t able to feel for almost 4 years after my moms passing. Thank you for giving me faith in myself that everything will be all right, that change is beautiful and seeking discomfort leads to the best memories and proudest moments. I love you guys, I’m so glad that I was able to grow into an adult with this channel and that you’re also still growing and changing.
Sorry to hear about your mom. That is unbelievably sad at such a young age. Time will never heal the wound and nobody who experienced the same could ever fathom that, but do good in life and believe in reuniting with your family one day in the afterlife.
U can help me please 😭😭😭😭
Im in tears im just rn getting started im 16 years old afraid of flying but my biggest dream is to drive a van from my homeland the netherlands to the north and live a happy life full of travel i want to document it on yt for memories and maybe a way to finance the traveling i hope everyone will be ok and have a wonderful life...
Bye...
@@Miner_20 My mom was deathly afraid of airplanes her whole life, but finally took a trip to see her sister when she was around 55 years old. She didn’t really enjoy the plane portion of the trip, but she was so happy to have finally confronted her fear. Perhaps someday you’ll want to, but where you’re located it’s possible to travel pretty far without ever needing a plane. Either way, enjoy your travels. 💜
@@denalinde thank you yea im pretty lucky living in NL its in the middle of warm and cold and sea i love it 😁❤️
Btw ive set a goal to fly atleast onece before my 25th bd so yea overcomming fear is healthy
Been watching since middle school, I just finished my freshman year of college. You guys are truly a part of my childhood and a huge inspiration in my life to conquer my own fears, explore and to help others. Thank you and I’m excited for this next chapter🙌❤️
I didn't find you guys until about 2 weeks ago. And honestly, that alone means you guys are doing something right. These videos are so effective and as someone who has the benefit of coming in fresh, it was amazing to see the growth and strength and resilience you guys have continuously shown. Thanks for everything!
You're one of the reasons why I've decided to travel more. Thank you for your great videos. Keep on your great work. Always a pleasure to watch it.
I still miss matt but always love what Yes Theory is bringing. Thomas, Ammar, Matt, everyone in the Yes Fam you have created something great.
I've been watching this channel for over 6 years. Crazy to see that you've all come such a long way. Love you guys
I stumble to ur channel yesterday while just looking for something different and y’all have fan now . I love how y’all get to know the people that live around world . the compassion and love y’all show people . It’s true !!! Keep up the awesome work !! Can’t wait to see new videos from y’all!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️ one day I will travel the world with hubby like y’all ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Your vids have grown since the beginning. The experiences have gotten deeper. It is so nice to see the world through your vids, to visit places I myself am not able to. Keep on growing, keep on deepening the content. It will be better (more satisfying ) then just the more shallow work of the early days…
Everyone in yes theory has made a huge impact on my life and I believe everything happens for a reason and will be forever grateful for the content produced….. thank you all for everything ❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰🥰
ONLY FOR FANS OVER 18 YEARS 🍒
I'd love to be Leanne.Host
is my idol. Hes the person I aspire to be, hes my light of day..
This is one of the best channels out there. Thank you for your content and for sharing with us so many things we won't ever be able to experience ourselves. I wish you only good luck and good health, and hopefully you will find your anchorage point in Paris! Bienvenue en Europe!
Absolute earnestness here. Thanks for continuing to do what you do, whatever new forms it may take!
I'm only been a subscriber for a few weeks, but the videos I have watched definitely give me a sense of wonder for the places you have visited and your story about feeling lost strikes a chord in me.
That loss of home is something I can relate to and had to deal with when my parents passed within a month of each other. After they were gone, their home (my childhood home) just felt so empty and without them it wasn't home anymore. But the upside is that my brother and his wife have remade it and it feels like a home again. Good on you for getting back to your roots.
Glad to see y’all evolving! Hyped to see where this road takes all of you and how the content will be different.What I learned within the last couple months too is, that when you do what you love, everything is possible.
Congrats!!! I’m so pumped for this new chapter. I love growing old with you guys
The storytelling and editing of this video is...astoundingly good. Kudos to the team, and looking forward to watching your next adventures!
I have loved watching the yes theory team grow and change. I have seen them mature and become such good people. It shows me that change is hard, but it is necessary. Which gives me comfort because I’m in a big season of change myself
I love the new year theory! I connected with it more than the “old”. I love the story telling and authenticity in seeing people of different cultures and their stories❤️
Sending LOVE from Poland! ❤️ Change is the only certain thing in life. Keep inspiring us ✌️✌️✌️
Congratulations Thomas, I recently bought my first flat too, I've cried countless times watching your videos as I'm doing right now. You guys really changed the world for many people, , I've seen you guys since 8k views, keep doing whatever makes you happy.
Yes Theory! I have been a follower for years and have always told my friends that we have to do things we aren’t always most comfortable doing. Love this channel and happy with the people you guys are. Need more like you 🙏🏽
I've been watching this channel for almost 4 years, since I was 14. Writing this wearing my seek discomfort t-shirt, I'm excited to see where this new chapter brings you. And I wish you the best :)
You can’t imagine how happy I am for you guys, I’ve watched you since 2017. You brought tears in my eyes. Wishing you all the best❤️❤️
Just started watching Yes Theory almost a month and half ago.... It all started through a suggested video of Nepalese Honey Adventure you guys did; it was truly amazing. As a travel and content enthusiast, i just love watching your content, so much so that almost everyday i watch 2 to 3 Yes Theory videos..... and i truly appreciate your adventures, ideas and story-telling.
It's very heartfelt that Yes Theory team has to move on separately, but at the same time i have a lot of respect for you guys for showing immense love & respect to each other, and to highlight the need of LOVE that this world is now missing.
I love the way how your content has been matured with the passage of time; BioSphere 2, Bhutan, Nepalese Honey, Iraq & Kurdistan, Island of Death, Challenging Will Smith for Heli-Jumping, going to Moldova, visiting Communa 13 and last, but not the least SYRIA; your brotherhood is amazing and as a fellow content creator i wish Matt, Thomas, Ammar and Yes Theory Team best of luck for all your future endeavors.
Salam and Love from Pakistan ❤💚
Congratulations on your Evolvement. I wish you all the best in your endeavors. May Your future be greater.
Can’t wait to see the new chapter of Yes Theory! Following you guys since 3years and seeing these huge changes Makes me feel like I’m growing old. 😅
This is so beautiful! So authentic. I was on the edge of my seat from beginning to end. You are a great story teller! I resonated so much with what you said. I have watched you guys for years and saw the transitions. I'm also still inspired and interested to see what else is in store for all of you. You guys taught me to be more present and to keep searching for meaningful interactions because when we die all we have is the memory of how we live. All the best on the new journey and I'm sure many like me will be watching!🙂
Childhood for me was filled with trauma and conflict so as a 24 year old now i have never wanted to look back and i have always needed a safe "comfort" space where im in control. Your content has allowed me to experience some "discomfort" from a place where i dont have to constantly be afraid or look behind my shoulder and im very grateful for it
I relate to this way too much.
what works for you now? Cause I want to plant roots somewhere I think......
As someone with similar childhood I agree.
I believe i have been following you guys since 2.6K subs it’s great to see you guys are doing so well while spreading smiles and kindness
