Hi, we are Stephen, Jess and little Hunter, a traveling family who spent 2020 self-converting a van before moving in full-time to drive around our home country of Australia. We have now completed our lap, said our goodbyes, and resumed full-time travel before we wait for our second baby to arrive.

[@annecaunce]

There's nothing more precious than seeing a child smile and Hunter's excitement at seeing all her favourites had me smiling too. What a wonderful life she is living and soon Koa will understand so much more. Looking forward to seeing big sister and her brother on their adventures together. X

[@flyingthenest]

i know right! it honestly makes us teary eyed seeing how excited she gets at places like this!!

@@Brontesaurus123 Lucky you!

[@mceagle328]

I have finally made it. I've watched every Flying the Nest video from the very beginning. It's touching that I've finished watching every video from Hawaii to the world and back. Just want to thank you guys so much for allowing me to travel the world through the comfort of my home office. I play your videos while I work and the joy you've all given me in my up and down days is priceless. Keep making these awesome cheeky videos and you've got a life long fan in me. Cheers from your biggest fan in Toronto Canada! and yes...if you all are planning on returning here please don't hesitate to reach out and it would be an absoloute thrill to take you all around. Take care and looking forward to the next adventure

[@susantinnion1794]

Hunters sense of adventure and her confidence has grown so much and is a pleasure to watch. She’s definitely going to be the bossy over Koa isn’t she 😂. They are both growing up so fast x

[@user-xv3hx7zq2l]

I agree

[@flyingthenest]

hehe yes!! its grown so much since we started seeing characters a few ears ago! haha yep she already is haha

[@FoxNimbus]

So much kudos to character actors in big costumes. They convey so much fun and friendliness with just their body language, keeping the magic alive for kiddos.

[@flyingthenest]

i know right? they do SUCH a good job! even some of the face characters (like Rapunzel on the recent disney cruise we did) was so good!

[@flyingthenest]

Thanks so much for all your support on our little Hawaii and Aulani series - hope you enjoyed it!! we have a brand new series starting next week :)

[@lykatan]

Steve describing tuna as 'tastes like tuna' was the laugh I needed today. hahaha

[@flyingthenest]

😂😂😂

[@kleelee123]

Literally same hahaha I loved that

[@DMProductions]

You guys deserve everything, the effort you put into these vlogs is inspiring 🔥

[@flyingthenest]

aww thanks mate youre the best!

[@vanessavanderkramer6588]

Wow! Aulani is stunning! Definitely the most beautiful Disney resort.Hunter is such a joy to watch. Nothing is wasted on her. She’s like a little sponge soaking up happiness around the globe. Koa is a bit little to know what is going on but just so sweet. Lovely series in Hawaii! ❤

[@flyingthenest]

It's done soo well! it's like an all in one resort rather than say an extension of the parks!

[@annakreidewei3115]

I love this family ❤thanks for making every Sunday a special one

[@flyingthenest]

thank you!!

[@erikagholston6610]

Hunter's smile couldn't get any bigger when she sees the characters.

[@flyingthenest]

Hehe I know!!!

[@JohnCillis]

My fav Disney resort experience was 'Beach Club' in Disneyworld, walking distance or accessible by boat to Hollywood Studios and Epcot. We went there in '09, flying from Phoenix to Orlando, then taking the free Disney bus to the resort. When we checked in, my wife, ten yo daughter and I were approached by staff with balloons and informed we were 'family of the day'. We were upgraded to the concierge floor which meant free breakfast, lunch and light dinner, and alcohol though we did not drink much. The free upgrade saved us a fortune--as Disney guests you know how much food is. I love your videos, you are a traveling family like mine is, though I am now in early retirement. Your videos take me back to the most euphoric time of my life, having a young daughter (we were single child parents though we wanted a second). My wife and daughter and I also had a bed 'swinging' tradition with my daughter, and my daughter always loved our hotel choices, no matter where we stayed, she would say 'this is the bestest' hotel. She was most happy if the hotel had a food court or Pizza Hut, like the Disneyland Marriott had.

[@karatheyaroxan6852]

This looks like such a sunny beautiful Disney Vacation

[@flyingthenest]

so glad with the weather we had!!

You guys are truly living the best life! What an awesome experience for the kids too. That purple yam that Steve tasted has got to be Ube, which is extremely popular in the Philippines. Hope to bring my family to that resort someday! ❤

[@emlizw1]

What Stitch made your breakfast?! Max and Pluto were there too?! WOW that so cool!! Ok Jess and Stephen you both know that I follow this channel because you two are AWESOME and one day I hope to meet you all!!! But Ia am not gonna lie. Hunt sold me on in the last few episodes. She reminds me of my niece who is the same age and is my goofy buddy who makes me laugh just like Hunter dose in these videos. Good food, good entertainment and wow I would love to check this place out! Koa looks so cute in the dyi Disney ears!! Oh and I would love your help too with how to best capture my trip to Tahiti in late August.

[@OziJo1]

Looks wonderful!! If we ever have grandkids then I would love to take them here, probably on the way home from a visit to Disneyland. Our kids are all grown up but we have been to Disneyland, Disney World and Hawaii a few times. Our youngest daughter has also been to Euro Disney and Tokyo Disney and we are planning a trip to Tokyo Disney in November as part of a 3 week trip to Japan. Those Portuguese donuts are called Malasada’s and the best are from Leonard’s Bakery. We had one on our way back into Waikiki after a photography tour of Oahu last October. One of the best things I have ever tasted.

[@flyingthenest]

oh wow youve been able to do so many trips with them!! hope you had an amazing time!

[@user-ni5wn1xr4n]

Love, love, love this. It is just so precious to see life through a kids eyes. Thank you so much for sharing with us. As I said before, do you need a nanny!!??

aww thank you!!

Great video 😍 May I ask what camera you use? Appreciate the response! Thank you

Sony A7S3

[@AussieAngeS]

I just love your family! your kids are the cutest 😊Stitch's restaurant at the beginning was so cool, my 3 1/2 year old would love that haha. Malasada's would be my weekness, I would want to eat all those donuts lol. Thanks for sharing with us your Hawaiian Disney adventure.

[@flyingthenest]

Thanks for coming along for our disney adventure! haha yep that restaurant was so cool! apparently they change it up every morning on "who's restaurant" it is - apparently quite rare for it to be Stitch's so feel extra special

Such cute outfits on hunter and koa!!!

[@Reelsightsandsites]

Wow the place is beautiful. Visited the resort last year but did not get to see the Luau. Hope to see it this year. I hope you can spare me some time to answer my 2 questions. (1) what camera or gear do you use for vlogging? The night videos (low light) look stunning and vivid! Absolutely awesome videos considering you do it yourself. And (2) can we join (or pay for) the Luau even if I am not booked in the resort? We are visiting hawaii again this year and i dont think we have the budget for Aulani. But would love to bring my 2 kids (6yo and 1 yo) to meet mickey, stitch and the rest. The rates are just too steep for us. Thanks alot and hope to see more vids from your family soon. We love watching your family videos because we are also a traveling family. Although not fulltime but we love to go to new places/ countries and make videos as well. Thanks

Brilliant.. make happy and smile vlog as always. Everybody needs a hug.. it is so good for human wellbeing.. and it is so cute now Hunter is LOVING the hugs with all the Disney characters.. adorable. If I am feeling down/sad, I rewatch your vlogs.. they make me smile and lift me up. My face hurts from smiling Thanks. ⚠️BUT.. 2 adverts every 5 mins is to much.. and that is not including your personal "Squarespace Ad." 2 ads at start after the info.. and 2ads nearer the end is ok.. but that many ads in a 20min video is TO MUCH!. You don't usually do it this extreme.. I hope this isn't going to become the norm!?

You said "families" and not "family's" so I thought the plural meant we'd be seeing the Grinceries! That would have been fun
