Hi, we are Stephen, Jess and little Hunter, a travelling van life family who self-converted their dream house on wheels - we now live full-time in our Sprinter van called Cooper as we do a full lap of our home Australia.

[@khalini2931]

Hunter is such a bright girl

[@NZKiwi87]

Be hard not to be with these spectacular parents & this incredible childhood! Love them 👍

[@colbieads5536]

One of my favorite places. We had the best time in Strasbourg and Colmar about 5 years ago. I'm dying to go back and stay a little longer.

[@flyingthenest]

So glad you visited!!

[@flyingthenest]

Hello Steve and Jessica I'm watching you from Israel you welcome to Israel with hunter somday

[@duckfero7362]

As someone who live there and see those building every day, I sure don't feel as excited to see them, but I'm happy to see that our cities look great to foreigner!

[@Dentiera]

Been there last year at Christmas time. The whole village is decorated with lights. Magic!

[@flyingthenest]

im sure it is!!

[@vanessadaniels400]

We spent a weekend at The Colmar Christmas Market, now that was simply magical 🎅🏼🎄 So glad you enjoyed it xx

[@flyingthenest]

aww so jealous I am sure its even more magical at Christmas!!

[@tarajeisman]

I was there in 2019 for christmas and absolutely fell in love with this place. On those canals, they had school kids riding boats at night with lanterns, and santa was in one! Was very interesting.

[@cunningdeb3129]

You three should definitely come back for Christmas. The Alsace Region is famous for its Christmas Markets.

[@michelle14749]

France is so beautiful! Another awesome video and little Hunter is adorable and talking so much now ❤

[@flyingthenest]

aww thanks so much for watching!

[@TheBestFoodieShow]

France really is incredible, thanks for uploading Stephen. Great video as always!

[@flyingthenest]

Everytime we go we fall back in Love with France

[@larryloveless2967]

I sure enjoyed seeing your trip to a part of France I never visited. I was once very surprised when on a Go Ahead company Jewels of the Alpine tour to visit countries in their Alps region we visited Annency along Lake Annency and really enjoyed seeing that city.

[@LoveAuntAshley]

I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE the architecture! Especially those half timber houses!

[@jenc968]

Colmar looks absolutely magical-definitely something straight out of a fairytale! I've really enjoyed your European series so far and can't wait to see where you are going next afterwards!

[@flyingthenest]

Hehe coming soon!!

[@lazstan]

I missed you guys through COVID. Now let's get back to traveling....yes we bring our kids to great vacation destinations... Just did Mallorca!!

[@jasmins9658]

I'm going to visit the Elsass/Alsace at the end of the month and now I'm even more excited😍

[@annecatherineschlosser2400]

This video has just put a HUGE smile on my face!! I'm from Alsace, and I had so much fun seing you guys discovering those places that are so familiar to me!! And yes, the region is indeed very magical around Christmas time! (yet very crowded because of the many visitors + locals wondering around!) I never write comments, so I might as well say it here: thank you so much for documenting and sharing all your adventures! I've been following you since 2017, and I have to say that you always bring a little something special to my day, and inspire me to continue traveling as much as possible. I wish you the very best for your upcoming adventures ❤

[@flyingthenest]

aww so amazing to hear some one watching this video from the region!! Any other spots we should visit?

[@annecatherineschlosser2400]

@@flyingthenest yes!! Ribeauvillé, Riquewihr, Eguisheim and Kaysersberg (the "route des vins" (literally "wine road") -> all of those villages are picture perfect like Colmar and Strasbourg, but they are smaller in size, and there are many vineyards all around 😊 You can also go up to the Château de Haut-Koenigsburg if you want to have a look from a higher spot! Enjoy 😋

[@lindabarbieri5455]

@@annecatherineschlosser2400 I’ve been there…. I lost the count on how many times we went in Alsace lol during Christmas time, in summer, september, with and without the kids… those places are always magical to me, they have a special spot in my heart!❤️ can’t wait to go back again!!!! For now, I'm satisfy to sniff the phone and expect to smell the good smell of pan d'epices, tarte alsacienne and bretzel…🤤🤤 Enjoy your travel(and the food hehe) there, greetings from Italy 🇮🇹

[@ryanatkins3734]

Definitely looks like a scene from beauty and the beast keep up the amazing videos been watching over a year now

[@flyingthenest]

Agreed!! Such a stunning part of the world

[@goldtopazasylum]

Such beautiful scenery on the gondola ride, then the onion pie, oh looks so good.

You guys are an inspiration for travel, relationship and family

[@flyingthenest]

This video was perfect - I am taking my daughter to Strasbourg for Christmas and then a stopover in Colmar - a very different Christmas than an Aussie one. Thank you for sharing these towns/cities.

[@flyingthenest]

Aww thanks so much!! You guys will have the best time

Welcome to France!!!

Oh yes

[@intrepidnurse5659]

I love their “pizza” - in Paris there is a place called Flams in Monteparnasse who do these. Our favourite is the one that has potato, onion, bacon and cheese. We make it at home now - the cream is crème fraise with a touch of nutmeg, then slices of par cooked potato, bacon, caramelised onions, and Gruyère.

[@emilypietrantone8391]

I went to both of these towns last November when they were decorated for Christmas, and, yes, absolutely magical!!

[@flyingthenest]

Naww so jealous!!

[@LorraineG123]

Wow what a beautiful trip, looks superb. Hunter, you steal the show every episode.

How fun would it be for Hunter to go back years later and find your family's love lock on the bridge. I love architecture, just added Colmar and Strasbourg to my bucket list.

[@sonjakrohn4303]

How exciting to bump in to you in the mall today! I commented on your videos way back when I started following you while I was still In South Africa, stuck there due to Covid. Lamenting about how Covid was preventing us all from being with our families. Well I’m here now! Finally in Australia with my family, for good! 😃. Looking forward to your next adventure. You three are a joy to watch. Hunter is such a bright button! ❤

[@andreas_adventures]

I've been desperate to go to Alsace for years. Gah! Now I want to go even more.

[@flyingthenest]

Ahh hope you can in the future

[@hpruijs]

You tried some of the best culinary treats the Alsace has to offer. I really appreciate that you always try regional specialties! I subscribed after watching an episode about, if I'm not mistaking, Icelandic food, a couple of years ago, and look forward to your posts ever since. Thank you so much!

[@flyingthenest]

I agree, come back for the Christmas Markets. My favorite one is in Colmar. It’s so stunning….I try to go every year as I don’t live too far away in Switzerland

[@freelancelady]

I felt so proud you guys visited that part of my country where I lived the first 20 years of my life…so many memories came to my mind…I love your videos…Hunter does not know how lucky she is and cannot yet appreciate visiting countries and traditions… for her right now it is very simple, everything is all about going from Cho Cho trains to parks, playgrounds, foods, and having as much fun as possible. I wonder if you will be able to travel once she will start school.

[@flyingthenest]

oh wow what an incredible part of the world to live in so proud to have brought back some memories for you :)

You are going to all the places I want to visit. I couldn’t ask for a better advance team.

Lol as a French we have lots of those hidden gems we don’t like to share 😂 until you came along 😮!!!!
