They say, when it comes to traveling, we do it three times: first when we dream about it, then when we actually go, and finally when we look back and remember the adventure. But doing it w/ your Ninja besties is just priceless ❤️We can’t wait to do all over again! See you soon😍

# 2 the Ninja Village was super impressive - the kids had to consider it the highlight of - maybe most of the trip. So much fun ( if you were young enough ) Our son Ryan, in 1992 - age 7, started Tae Kwon Do for his birthday gift. I decided to join him two months later - age 49 - First two years we went 3 days a week, last two years just 2 days a week. We both received our Black Belts. Mine was more like - yep, i finished the forms, but I was no Bruce Lee - ( who, by the way is buried in Seattle with his son ) Ryan on the other hand was pretty darn good. A good bonding for dad to do this with our only child.

A black belt is still very impressive! And sounds like such a great bonding experience for the two of you 😊

It is a perfect introduce of Soba that pouring and drinking Soba-yu after eating Soba. Soba-yu is recommended from a nutritional standpoint because it contains carbohydrates, minerals, B vitamins, and dietary fiber that were dissolved when the Soba was boiled. And, Obi Wan Kenobi's name comes from "Shinobi"... That's an interesting new theory, but it is actually said to be a corruption of "Obi wa Kuro-obi”(="his belt is a black-belt"). "Jedi" comes from "Jidai-geki" referring to Japanese period dramas, especially Samurai films. Anyway, Lucas is the pioneer of Weeaboo...maybe

As someone with an odd childhood, this is genuinely healing that child in me that has needed it in so long. Im not the sappy type, but the amount of smiling and care i feel watching this almost solicits a guilty feeling. Thank you so much for healing some of our inner children, because i know i am not the only one that feels this way. Your channel as well as MomDuty has done a wonderful job of bringing out something so ethereal and necessary. I have so much love for all of you and wish you nothing short of success and happiness.

So good to see your videos. Lovely family bonding. Your kids are so lovely. I think you missed a lot during your visit to India. If you ever plan again for India please get in touch with me and I will plan a pilgrimage circuit tour for your family. It's so beautiful and divine for you and your family to experience.

Hi Guys - have watched all your videos and you guys are so infectious in a great way, i love the way you guys laugh and smile and take everyday as it comes - i use to be like that when i was your age and i use to travel before it become a thing on KZbin, but life got in the way and marriage and family and divorce took over and along the way i lost my smile and my laugh and i lost me and just became a dad and everything i did or do is about my kids, but they are almost adults now and i will try to find myself again and will travel back to the amazing places i visited almost 30 years ago like India and Thailand and China, i too hope to travel and record my time on KZbin and have started my small channel and will start building that up before i travel in a few years, its difficult creating videos without real experienced footage - Can you guys share with us all how you both met and what your plans are for the future, i thing i speak for many of your followers when i say that we are invested in you both and we want to know more about you guys - Keep up the amazing videos and stay true to yourself - PsTravel365

Thank you so much for this wonderful message! We truly appreciate you. We hope you get to travel again and reconnect with yourself as soon as possible. Phil and I pretty much met through mutual friends, but fell in love so instantly, we knew we wanted a life of adventure together. And everything has been a whirlwind constant change since 😊. We plan to keep traveling as long as we are able to and it’s a healthy choice for our kids. But we have seen so much growth in them in every way, since we started experiencing more of the world. And there is still so much more of the world for us to see!
