From Disaster to Dream: Our Alaskan Adventure Took a Wild Turn!

Trading flip flops for snow boots, we ditched the sunshine for sub-zero temps in Alaska! ❄️ This adventure took a wild turn - will we find the Northern Lights or end up lost in the wilderness? There is a surprise ending.

Following our 'steps': how did we get here?
We are Adam (North American) and Bernardo (Brazilian) and we are husbands whose paths crossed back in 2016, when we both still lived in Brazil. Since the very beginning, we shared a common passion for travel and nature, which has only grown over the years and led us to this unexpected journey on KZbin, which has allowed us to connect with an amazing community that we’re beyond grateful for. “Go out and make memories” is our motto of living and a constant reminder for us that true happiness doesn’t come from the material wealth we accumulate, but from the memories we create and share with our loved ones throughout our existence. We invite you to join us in our crazy journey in life and hopefully we can inspire you to go out and make some memories on your own. Welcome aboard!

We put a lot of time and effort into creating this video and we hope it shows. We're really proud of the final product and we hope you enjoy it as much as we do and could enjoy the experiences with us. Thank you for your continued support and for joining us on this adventure. See you in our next Alaska video. If you're reading this, we hope you had a wonderful holiday and are doing well. Big hugs to you.

[@mikekelly1151]

** What a wonderful video. The dog sled ride was great and so pretty the scenery. I am so glad you got to see the Aurora Borealis. The photos you showed in the video would be great for our watercolor class to paint someday. Can't wait for the next video episode of Alaska. You guy do some crazy things like falling into a snowbank to wake up. Big hugs to you both. Love you. **

Alaska is like another world to me who lives in the subtropics, since you talked about traveling to Alaska in the Zoom Chat, I have been looking forward to this video, thank you for sharing the dream world.

[@Stepsof2Foreigners]

Hey Winnie! So glad to bring you along with us in our adventure. As always, thank you so much for your support! ❤️

[@IainBales]

Hey, I'm from North Pole. I'm glad you guys got to experience Alaska!

[@Stepsof2Foreigners]

That's great to see that you're from North Pole. We hope we did your city justice. We loved North Pole and Alaska.

[@WingNutSDF]

Hey guys! Me again with another comment or two. I was a TV news photographer and editor for 6 years, so I appreciate the work you put into your videos. This project was extra special. Your final edited video was awesome, and I especially loved the drone footage. I can only imagine how many hours of raw video you shot. Unless you’ve actually done it, you don’t have any idea how much planning it takes. Plus, you must have an idea of what you want the finale video to look like! You had so many great cut-away shots, interiors, exterior, in the water and snow, low light, no light plus the driving shots in the vehicle. It was awesome. You really take pride in your work and I can see that in every video. Thanks for what you do to keep us entertained and thanks for sharing your story. Until next time, take good care of yourselves! ❤😊🎥

[@Stepsof2Foreigners]

Wow Randy, what a lovely comment. Thank you for watching our videos and secondly for leaving such a sweet comment. I (Adam) enjoy flying the drone. We have somewhat of an idea for the end of the video but as we were not sure if we would see the Northern Lights, it was hard to kind of 'control' this video which sometimes works out better than the ones we have planned. We got lucky with this one. We thank you so much for seeing the work we put into our videos and for watching them. We're here because of people like you... thank you!

[@WingNutSDF]

@@Stepsof2Foreigners And I’m here because of people like you! 😁 I was so happy when you got to see the Northern Lights! Thanks for the reply!

[@toms4899]

I have lived in snow country all of my 68 years and the Northern Lights is one thing I never get tired of seeing. When I was young, a group of us would take the snowmobiles out in the country and we would sit there for hours watching the Northern Lights dance in the sky. One thing with growing up in snow is you learn first of all to have respect for the weather as you can freeze your feet and hands quickly when it's -35 below. We always carry survival kits in our vehicles just in case. Glad you guys enjoyed your trip to Alaska.

[@Stepsof2Foreigners]

Hey Tom! We were really surprised when locals told us they never get tired of seeing the Northern Lights. After we saw them, we could understand why. Take care!

[@brendaleach6453]

I love how you always seem to be able to “immerse” yourselves in your adventures whether it be hot or cold!.

[@giannishen]

For a person who has never been exposed to snow, the snow scenery and aurora in North Pole, Alaska are really incredible, I am so envious! Every second of this video is beautiful, including you both, thank you very much for sharing! Have a wonderful, happy and great year! 👍🥰🙏🙌

[@teatravis]

Right? This looks amazing to us too!

[@allen9069]

I used to live in North Pole, glad you guys enjoyed it. I still live in Alaska but in a much milder climate. The North Pole area is extreme winter and you showed us just that. Good that you took the drive to Chena Hot Springs too.

[@Stepsof2Foreigners]

It’s a beautiful region but definitely crazy cold. It’s pretty amazing for us to think about how people adapt to such harsh environments. 🤯

[@davidscott688]

Boys, this video is fantastic! Roll on part 2. Alaska is quite stunning and became even more wonderful during your visit.

[@Stepsof2Foreigners]

Thanks so much! So glad you enjoyed it. This week we'll be working on Part 2, which will be posted soon. 😊😊

[@teatravis]

I agree!! We love it too

[@vitrock1]

One of your best adventures yet! I hope to see the northern lights in person one day! Happy Anniversary! Love you guys! ❤❤

[@Stepsof2Foreigners]

Thanks so much Allen. This adventure was one we had wanted to go on for quite some time. We love you back.

[@bobart45]

Nice to see you guys again. You never fail to bring laughter to my day and the gorgeous sights you share, oh my. You did a good job of keeping your Patreons in suspense about the northern lights and the lead up to their appearance entertaining. Beautiful trip. I can see why you fell in love with Alaska. ❣️😱😄👍🏻👏🏼👨‍❤️‍👨💕 *

[@EugeniuszDelbowski]

Great trip to Alaska, and you managed to see the Northern Lights - great. 👍 Happy New Year - Eugene & Adam. 🇵🇱

Happy new year! Yeah we were so lucky we got to see them 😊

[@fritzrathmann7318]

Thank you, thank you, thank you for sharing your memories with us. This was an exceptionally beautiful one with the snow, the hot springs, the dog sledding, the aurora. Can't wait to see the second Alaska vid. Happy New Year.

Awesome video guys. Amazing scenery and a lot of laughs too. I had a few laugh out loud moments watching this. Glad you loved Alaska. ❤️❤️

[@Stepsof2Foreigners]

Glad you enjoyed it. We had such a great time recording this one. Alaska is absolutely beautiful. ❤️❤️

[@user-yj7pe3pm7x]

As a retired airline employee, having traveled around the world many many times during my 30 years, this amazing trip and the breathtaking scenery finds me a bit guilt ridden that I have yet to make it to Alaska to enjoy as much of it as you did. Dare I say, thanks to you both, I've added it to the top of my bucket list ... appreciate your having introduced me to the many splendors that await myself and others you may have inspired to make the trip there. Yes, the United States has many wonderful places and attractions available for all to see and explore. With deep appreciation for your documentary quality video, you've shown us Alaska is certainly among the most beautiful, can't wait to see it up close and personal myself, including dinner at that not really romantic diner ... thank you for that Adam and Bernardo. Gotta love you guys. ♥

[@erosamuk]

you guys have *_BALLS_* . i cried when you showed the northern lights. sooo happy for you two!

[@Stepsof2Foreigners]

We still can't believe we were able to see the Northern Lights, we were so lucky! Definitely one of the most beautiful things we've seen. Thanks for watching! ❤️❤️

Haha 😁 Guys, scene with snow bath wins 😂 Greetings from Poland 🥰

[@NormanAllan53]

OMG: we lived for many years in Northern Ontario,Canada and saw the northern lights thousands of times.Alaska sounds special but the reality is it's too cold and dark for too many days a year.You don't have to travel to the back of beyond to enjoy that phenomenon. Not to mention so much snow!

[@thiasnow8942]

Welcome to Alaska! I’ve been living here for 3 years! This place is absolutely amazing! Nothing like it!

[@Stepsof2Foreigners]

Thia, wow! Do you live in North Pole? We absolutely enjoyed our time in Alaska.

[@wrinklesandsprinkles]

*YAY!* I’ve been waiting for this video! I haven’t chuckled this hard at one of your videos before. Glad you enjoyed your dog sledding adventure, I want to experience a ride as well. I’m lucky I get to see the Aurora (no. lights) if I take a 1-2hr trip away from the light pollution of Minneapolis. The first time I saw a full blown multicolored event I was brought to tears. It was so magical I was emotional. The colors were green, peach, pink, purple, blue and the sky was dancing!

[@rickpacheco4571]

Guys I want to thank you! For both medical and personal reasons I was losing focus on what is important. Watching your videos has helped me refocus on my husband and our relationship. You’re wonderful!

[@dwaynebaker9793]

OMG, 🤣😂🤣!!! Adam and Bernardo, the two of you jumping into the pile of snow, and then IMMEDIATELY running away from it! Priceless guys. 😊

I loved Alaska in the summer and having followed the Iditarod (sled dog race) for many years it's always been a dream to take a dog sled ride in the snow.Not sure I could handle only 4 hours of sunlight though. Thanks so much for sharing your experience.

[@dunnmatt1]

What an amazing video! Awesome and one of your best. It was fun, adventurous, crazy, heartwarming, beautiful (and stunning) and gave us a glimpse into your experience. It looked like it was full of joy and happiness and I’m glad to hear and see you loved it so much there! What wonderful memories you will have. Can’t wait to see part 2!

Love the video! KZbin suggested this and I am so glad I clicked on it. Became a subscriber. The editing was great and you two are so cute together. It feels like I was there from your videos after living in some cold places myself and was able to vicariously see the Aurora Borealis up close thanks to the two of you. Amazing sight and thanks for sharing your wonderful adventure.

Glad to see you two in 2023 (HNY) and again enjoyed your company and adventure in Alaska. I don't mind mind watching since it's not my feet that are getting cold! I've lived full time in my Class A and the floor was like a ice rink (yes, even with heat plentiful) at times and I'd be wearing 3-4 pairs of socks! LOL So, my pleasure you endured for me! You two are also a pleasure to be around. Keep bringing us along!

Dear A&B! What a lovely gathering of images from your time in Alaska, it is easy to see your happiness for being in North Pole! The editing is splendorous, you were able to take us from high laughter (running in shorts on the snow) to emotional tears in 15 minutes (spotting the Northern Lights) “e olhem que não somos chorões”! I can’t stop saying how happy I am for finding you on KZbin! I cheer for the both of you! Congratulations for the lovely work! Beijos Luciano e Nildo!

[@user-dt4ys9yn5w]

Hi there, I'm so glad to find the new video as I just started to subscribe you guys a few days ago. I come from China, on New Year's Day, I was shocked by the fact that my best male friend is gay, cause I regretted I was always being stupid, trying to introduce girls to him. Anyway I feel so happy for him, and the truth that he would like to come out in front of me. That's basically the reason why I became curious of how gay couples get along, I found you and I just can't stop watching all the videos you created. Thank you so much for being so inspiring and entertaining, I have no idea why I leave this message, maybe just want to tell you that you guys are the first surprises I've discovered since 2023 began. Sending love from China!!!
