Sorry you ae not the 1st Brits to enter the US. Rapper Zuby from Great Britain. He came to the US 7 months ago. He's in Mexico now. You have to leave the US after 6 months so he left. Before the US he was in Brittain.

[@mikesmith2102]

Joel!!! You clean the dust screen every time you use the dryer. The dryer works better if the screen is cleaned and you don't allow the screen to clog up.

[@christinewright8670]

Not only that, if you don't clean the lint screen all that lint build up can eventually cause fire. Clean the lint screen after every use.

[@SuperDrLisa]

Of course!

[@raynemichelle2996]

It's also a fire hazard

[@mandystory4275]

It wouldn't be a trip to America unless Lia hurts herself. 🤕. I hope Lia is feeling better. ❤️

[@americathebeautifulforever9746]

If you two are planning on swimming and laying out in the sun, do it tomorrow and Wednesday both days are going to be warm and sunny, after that it's rain and cooler because winter is slowly moving in. Have fun!

[@americathebeautifulforever9746]

BTW, Florida will be sunny and warmer!

[@MsDimps24]

Rain and cool will remind them of home .

[@LorraineinPNW]

Such a beautiful, modern place! Who'd have thought that the wifi was so bad...ugh! You two are hilarious keeping this destination a secret. Welcome back to the good 'ole USA :-)

[@ThoseTwoBrits1]

Thank you Lorraine!

[@rebeccadawn8212]

😂 Johnny Cash! Welcome to America. Nashville, the concrete, country music jungle! Have a grand time!

[@KatieHeartsTushar]

Those open spaces in the bedroom walls in your Air BnB are required for fire safety because the bedrooms don’t have windows to the exterior. Bedrooms are required to have two exits in case of fire, the door plus one other exit. If there is no window, they have to open up a space in the wall 😊

[@WestSideModSquad]

This is Elvis and this is Taylor Swift over here….LMAO 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

[@stacyzanavich4451]

I've just discovered your channel a few days ago and I can't stop watching! I've been binge watching Joel and Lia like a Netflix show! You guys are so adorable and I enjoy watching everything! Definitely a new subscriber!

[@oshifish2]

Aww making me homesick! I am so happy you made it to the US! I am an expat living in Scotland and I have not been back to see my family at all for a long time! Enjoy that beautiful early Nov there with the warmth as the Winter very slowly creeps in! Love Nashville! xx

[@danajohnson4757]

Lia and Joel .. it's Johnny Cash. When y'all didn't recognize him, I gasped!! 😂🤣 BTW ... the official start to winter is December 21st in the USA. The apartment was beautiful and $55 a night is a fantastic price!!!

[@victoriagrubbs1720]

OMG!! You guys are amazing! Thank you so much for the love. Welcome to Nashville!! have fun !

[@deeallen1526]

Next, check out Memphis! It's a few hours south. It's totally different. Still, a music town, lots of Elvis stuff, and great barbecue

[@lisaanderson2900]

That apartment is so nice!! I'm excited to see Nashville with you guys, I've never been!

[@adammartin6447]

It's really a nice place to be, I only live 20 minutes away. Such nice buildings, nice people. Just a good place all around.

[@juanmeowmix1530]

Welcome back to America!

[@dalemoore8582]

I wish y'all weren't araid to drive in the US so you could see we are so much more than the cities. Tennessee is so beautiful ,mountains. I would love to see your reaction to Pigeon Forge and Gatlinburg. Chattanooga(another city) is so much fun. Just a day trip

[@tarynriver]

Omg can you imagine them going to Dollywood or the gatlinburg strip idk if you’ve ever been there but there’s a little place outside gatlinburg called Cardins drive in that place is amazing

[@dalemoore8582]

@@tarynriver I've been to Gatlinburg but never been to Cardin's. I'll have to try it. Joel and Lia don't know what they are missing!

[@tarynriver]

@@dalemoore8582 cardins is a tiny drive up place but so good it’s about 15/20 mins from Gatlinburg the milkshakes are sooo good I used to live by it when I lived in Tennessee and loved that place

[@fsgbankgirl]

@@tarynriver I bought a hamburger for the first time there one day, then found a big beautiful Australian Shepherd chasing cars on Asheville Highway...I fed him the rest of my burger and he was my bay from then on!!!

So excited for you guys to be here! It's actually still fall, not winter and it's a good one too!

Welcome back to America! Tennessee is Amazing and I know you'll have a wonderful time there! Enjoy!

[@DaphneQueen]

Omg! I live in Nashville! So cool that you guys are here!

[@DaphneQueen]

@THE TRUTH IS OUT NOW! 😂

[@TBNTX]

@Lia: I visited Warwickshire in my trip to England in the late 80s. I even visited the Warwick castle for the afternoon. I have many memorable photos! If you like the Nashville airport's music as you de-planed, Austin Texas' airport does the same thing, except with live music. You've been to Austin, so you probably know already. Safe travels!

[@dreamweaver1603]

That’s amazing. So happy you’re here. Enjoy your trip.

[@dancoll8166]

After all the years I've been watching you two, I can't remember ever seeing Joel in blue jeans. They definitely display your fine attributes much better than the usual black jeans. I hope you both enjoy Nashville! 😘

[@ThoseTwoBrits1]

haha thanks so much Dan!

[@dorismedvetz5796]

Hope you have a good time and I can't believe you didn't know Johnny Cash!! When I use to go to the laundry mat I constantly got clobbered by dryer door

[@kristiwyckoff1636]

So many great Cafes in Nashville! You can get Starbucks anywhere.

[@mammatubbs4434]

Awe the kiss to make it better was so darn precious. Enjoy your stay

[@blackraven763]

The place you guys are staying at is beautiful and definitely an upgrade from your Airbnb in Toronto... even the gym is awesome! Too bad you guys won't stay there for too long.... I've been enjoying every live stream as well. Have loads of fun in the U.S.!

[@terryomalley1974]

They stayed at two Aur B n B's in Toronto. They didn't like the first one but really like the second one. Or, so they said.

[@jsgsfnm]

My family went on vacation to Nashville in June and it was one of the best vacations we’ve taken. So much fun.

[@christineallocca7307]

You really scored with this Airbnb! Have a wonderful time in Nashville. Glad to see you back in the US.❤🥂

[@deborahhardy4445]

Nashville is fun!.Must go to Country Music Hall of Fame,Studio C, where Elvis recorded.All the bars and shops on Broadway,You have to eat BBQ a lot.So much to do and see! You will love it.

[@becketpanfil8226]

The place you're staying looks gorgeous!!

[@danaknight1513]

Thank you for the tour of your Airbnb. It looks wonderful! Thanks for taking us along on the flight from Toronto to Nashville. Have fun, guys!

[@kathleenobrien3473]

You should have picked " Joel and Lia fly to Nashville on a tiny, little plane" as the title of the video!

[@petemanno7165]

While in Nashville, check out the Parthenon, full scale replica of the one in Athens. It's an art museum with a 42 foot statue of Athena inside.

[@thegreatest3371]

Yes looks impressive.

[@cindland]

The Parthenon is awesome, I love going there and the west end is a perfect place for them to get the city vibe!

[@thegreatest3371]

@@cindland Yes I would love to see a video of it.

[@Demetri450]

You guys are going to love it there: Broadway after dark. Highway 24 at rush hour. Coffee shops at 11 a.m. You won't be driving, but Sunday morning church traffic is an experience. Compared to most of the U.S., Nashville's violent crime rate is only 183% higher than the national average. Its property crime rate is 92% higher than the national average, as of May 2021. It's pretty safe.

[@chefevilee9566]

I was thinking you were going to Charleston South Carolina. But I’m glad you went to Nashville it’s a really fun place. Plus with Lia’s singing. She should definitely get up at one of those bars and belt out a tune!!! Please do yourself a favor and have Hattie B’s mild fried chicken while you’re there.

[@michellevandyke5000]

I absolutely loved the joy and peace vibe surrounding both of you after your tour of the accommodations.

[@dorothypaul4642]

I just love your energy and your enthusiasm. I feel so excited for you! And you've given me the travel bug! Enjoy!

[@jenniferrussell6616]

Welcome to Nashville! I hope you enjoy yourself here! If you have time, you should visit Cheekwood Botanical Gardens and mansion in the Belle Meade area. Belle Meade is one of the most affluent neighborhoods in the whole USA and is beautiful.

[@carlah3811]

Guys i hate to be a party pooper but Brits (particularly Disney vloggers) have been coming over to the US for the last couple of months via the 'back door' route ie spending 14 nights in Croatia or the Caribbean which after that period of time allowed them to enter America. Absolutely love Nashville went there in 2018 and would love to go back one day.

[@cindynelson992]

You’re going to Nashville-so close but yet so far! I’m 4 hours away🥲 Welcome back to the USA 🇺🇸

[@djg5950]

I can't believe that you mentioned "being a Borrower". I know it takes place in Great Britain. That series was my favorite books growing up. My mother read a chapter or two to me and my sister every night at bedtime. I have the whole set that I bought many years ago. I haven't met anyone in my adult life that mentions even knowing what the stories are about. I think it started a life long hobby of collecting miniature things. Always keep them around in case any Borrowers decide to move in.

[@alinagorobets4220]

Joel, you are such a nice guy, polite and helpful but in a very intelligent way...

My sister and her boyfriend lives in Nashville. About 25min north. If you get in a snag let me know and I maybe able to hook up a room. She like drinking that same wine. Have fun! Good amount of land with a couple horses you can trough carrots at.

[@Blusoup1]

Welcome to Nashville! I’ve lived here for 20 years now and love it. It looks like y’all might be downtown which will be a very happening place while you’re here. The CMA Awards show is tomorrow (Wednesday night) at Bridgestone Arena where you’ll see all kinds of famous people in town. You should try and visit the town of Franklin , which is just south of Nashville. It’s a great little town. I hope you enjoy your stay here. I work in the Midtown area, on music row, if you want to pop by tomorrow. Also you should go to Centennial Park which is also in Midtown, near Vanderbilt University. There you will see a full scale replica of The Parthenon in Greece. One of our nicknames (for Nashville that is) is “The Athens of the South,” as well as “Music City USA.”

[@maryanncarreon4868]

So happy y’all going to Tennessee… enjoy love to you both

[@mattybaskets]

I had to skip back to make sure I heard it right…when Joel called the gym small….hahahahaha

[@alboyer6]

Oh, Nashville was the last time I flew. Just two weeks before shutdown and a day before tornadoes ripped through downtown. Went to see the Parthenon, and then the women's suffrage statue in that park, celebrating TN being the state that gave the number needed to pass the amendment.

Try to get in the riverboat general Jackson (i think that's the name) my friend used to work on it about 20 years ago. It'll be an experience you'll never forget. Think they serve dinner also just so you know to where you don't eat beforehand. Have a great time

US airports with domestic, Canadian, some Caribbean flights do not separate departures and arrivals. They all use the same gates.

Hmmm. 1:00 am English time isn’t 7:00 am In Nashville. It’ll be the evening before - around 7:00 pm.

When your next Uber driver is overly nice and ask too many questions like, "how's your day?" Just reply, "good, thanks." It closes the door to an open conversation. 😂 Don't feel obligated to have a full conversation. And...you won't be labeled as "Snobby Brits"
