traveling to 100 countries with 3 kids | the bucket list family

This week we had the privilege of interviewing The Bucket List Family! We talked about the joys of living an unconventional life, the hardships that come with traveling as a family of five, how they keep their relationship strong on the road and more! It was so much fun to interview them and we’ve loved following along with their travel adventures for years. After talking to them we now feel the urge to travel somewhere awesome as a family and we know you will too!

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR HAVING US ON YOUR WONDERFUL PODCAST !!

[@barbaracilley8200]

I am a 74 year old grandma and I thoroughly enjoy watching you all on You Tube. I’ve lived a pretty sheltered life. I have been to Hawaii once but otherwise never left the mainland. You all make me so happy and being able to travel and take your family and us with you is so awesome. I always feel like I am right there with you. Garrett I think it’s because you do such wonderful filming. You don’t miss a thing. Thank you and thank you for sharing.

[@terreeverett8686]

That was such a fun episode to watch. I’m blown away by Drew telling you that she was talking with God. She is a very bright child. All of the credit goes to you two with how you raise your children. Bravo!!!!

[@melaniecota4916]

Just love the bucket list family!! So under rated and wish more people new about them and what they stand for. GREAT podcast!! Two beautiful families!!

[@daleclark8872]

This was a wonderful Podcast! So interesting to listen to two wholesome families talk about their adventures and dreams. Also love that you all have a great appreciation/love for God and His beautiful creation. We need more families like yours in this world! You truly prioritize your relationship with God and your family!! ❤️🙏🙏

[@hollyrolando8726]

OMG two of my favorite families. I could listen to you all talk for hours. Two amazing families, all so kind and caring. I too am A Bucket List investor and, completely agree, take your time for a great product and Jessica I can't wait for your book. As an empty nester now we did as much travel as we could afford with our kids, but I finally got my Bucket list trip in to a few countries in Africa this year and I am forever changed. The videos you post of travel hopefully will tease people enough to go experience life and culture. It is life changing in all the best ways! Thankyou for this interview, maybe soon we will see you all travel together with the kiddos! Loved this episode. ❤❤❤❤❤

Andrew and Shawn: May I say your daughter is a special and highly intelligent, kind girl. Blessings to you and your loved ones

[@karenges2666]

GREAT podcast. Two of my favourite families to watch. I love their family values.

[@JenLa8]

I love you, Gee family, and I’ve followed you from day 1. 😊 You’re a huge inspiration to me and my kids, and you’ve also brought together a great community. ❤️ Hope to meet you in person one day !

[@kimdavenport8549]

How did I miss this video 1 year ago? My 2 favorite couples on ONE show!! I loved this. I think you need to go see the Bucket List family and Andrew can get in some surf lessons!! LOL Thanks for sharing guys and all of the time you put into these videos! XOXO

[@dreamingmusicgal]

I could've watched this podcast for hours it was so good. Please do more with them. Blessings!

[@AprilFaith3]

Andrew and Shawn, you make life seem so enjoyable.. you have your best times but your soo grounded ❤️🙏🏻❤️

[@maryleemam2301]

Ive been following them for years. They are awesome!!

[@katiedoyle1902]

My favorite video ever. Please have them on again

[@brendamay4811]

I just pray that all parents would apply the the principles of raising each of their children as responsible, ethical, honest and empathy individual adults. Being a parent is the biggest responsibility anyway can take on.

[@janimal119]

Love the bucket list family!!! ❤🩶🩵

[@jourdanwalden]

It’s interesting because in my marriage, my husband is the more grounded one and I’m the dreamer, would live in a van or travel for a year start a KZbin channel person.

[@robynhigginbotham6468]

How awesome! Praying for ultimate success of your business! Also, BRAVO Dorothy & Manila!!! You both rocked your performances! Keep up the great work! ❤️❤️❤️

[@thrivewithghita9191]

Two of my favorite families on KZbin!! Love this so much!! Please keep doing all you do to create light in this world! 🎉❤❤ I’m in Panama right now and Jess I understand why you say you’re Canadian… I met an amazing young German couple and their questions to me were about the obsession with guns in the US? 😢

[@tacym09]

Awww I love The Bucketlist Fam! I went to Jr High & High School with Garrett. I really hope you guys do a collab with them this summer. And also do a trip together with all your kids. That'd be amazing to watch & such a great experience for both your families.

[@debbieinitaly]

Oh but you MUST go to the tropics of S Thailand - Phuket and not near the downtown corridor. Was there a few weeks. There’s a beautiful beach at the Marriott new in 2009. Phuket!!! Winter in USA is glorious prior to their rainy season.

[@sherispicer9808]

One of your best pod cast I've watch!!!

[@shawnandandrewpods]

Thanks for watching! hope you enjoyed :)

[@paolaruiz3371]

AHHHHH I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS

[@micheleaceves5054]

Yes Belize is so beautiful!! The people are so nice! Super kid friendly!

[@Kelli_kell]

All love ❤️ two of the best families!

[@JenLa8]

„we‘re not cute, baby, we‘re tough“..😂👍🏻

[@chelseawade4105]

Guys! I love Belize and agree with Garrett! We have taken our kids to Belize 2x now. We love Hamanasi Resort in Hopkins! They take care of you! But they went to Ray Caye in Belize, I wanted to go there last trip but the rooms were sold out :(

[@louisevandermaat-peeters1927]

[@marciefinn6295]

This was awesome… ❤ never any of the country because of a blood clot problem ❤️

[@stephalise9015]

Gosh I just love the Gees!

[@mamavandeveer3836]

Wow!❤❤❤❤❤❤, Hi guys and biggest, hugest congratulations on my absolute all-time favorite podcast I’ve ever seen. I have followed you guys for I don’t know probably like four years or five years something and the bucket list even longer gosh I want to see Dorothea was like three years old it was it was , I don’t even think Manila wasn’t even born yet when I started, you know with them, but at any rate cut, I am just mesmerized at how similar your personalities line up with one another, and it just rather seems like you have just absolutely found the coolest mentors in the world to fit your lifestyle changes that you might want to take on someday. I’m not saying anything about you have to do it this coming summer or whatever but what an absolute opportunity to foresee what the outcome might be like family wise I mean you’ve even duplicated little girl then little boy little boy I mean hello, this was just such an absolute honest treat. Ridiculous thing is I took my medicine and decided to give myself a few minutes to listen to you guys and well now I’m missing my precious sleep and I don’t do that very often. But I just needed to let you know That this is one extraordinarily banger of a Vlog and I just really enjoyed it so much. Now I’m looking forward to seeing where your next vacation is and how many lessons you’ve learned from them in between now and then. God bless and keep up the great works Blessings to all of you.🥰🙏❤️

[@jennifergay8734]

I love your podcast & enjoyed this epic. You guys should have Kara & Nate their KZbin channel is really cool. They do all kinds of things. They're travelers, they do some extreme things and lots of other cool things & they've been to more than 100 countries it took 4 yrs. Then

[@ThatJewishFamily]

Love this! Our channel is also partly inspired by this family

[@IoanaHaitchi]

You are really good and don t need that silly videos you made lately. This kind of I love most.

[@danielleneuhalfen8102]

❤❤❤

[@heidz4585]

Quote is also VOLTAIRE

[@debbieinitaly]

I missed. Did they da how they make inception me for travel and house at home. I’ll dig in

[@cheriefrank5402]

💞🙏💞🙌💞

[@ronpetersen1262]

Can you have the bates family on your show please

[@Stargazer95485]

In terms of family social media content, Jessica said you can put out "good, bad or nothing" and feels she and Garrett are putting out "good". This may be true in some ways but I would say "good" content also means no children's faces are shown.

[@deannatretiak7803]

What about Canada for killer whale swim?

[@friendshipforever12]

Gareth‘s look is empty... something‘s off. And it can‘t be the cut on the lip.. hope all is well x

[@krose1]

Totally agree. Seems like the type that feigns naturing and loving, but could be cold and soulless.

[@tationutube]

These ppl are full of contradictions with all due respect: " we try to be good examples of americans" yet she tells everyone she's canadien. 48:00

[@krose1]

I def get awful narcissistic vibes from Garrett (and closet gay.) I love that his wife basically alludes to the fact that they wouldn’t be living this life if it were up to her - it seems a lot of it has been compromise on her part. Also, I’d love to give them the benefit of the doubt, but when they talked about their “lessons” it seems they’ve learned ZILCH. To refer to a poor Tongan man’s gym as “ghetto and janky” is tasteless, especially when you’re being ghetto for thirstily begging to use it and offering a low ball amount of $20 saying it’s more than he’d make in a year. That’s actually everything wrong with American capitalism, disgusting. And to even mention “what an American kid would draw when they think terrorist” lmao good god. People really need to stop giving these narcissists a platform. Being a nice person isn’t the same as portraying that you’re a nice person. I do think Andrew and Shawn are more wholesome and genuine people though - please don’t entertain this family again.

[@michelletodd61]

Are the guys ADHD? When you have it, it’s kind of easy to point out.

[@Stargazer95485]

Mormons have always been encouraged to journal and document their lives. Garrett's commitment to that should have stayed PRIVATE. Now their children have no privacy and their digital footprint is huge. The East Family needs to be careful too about overexposing their children online. You all spend too much time thinking about "documenting" for the sake of potential social media content.

[@Ensignpeak]

Always amazing how beautiful smart heterosexual women end up married to the gayest men out there like J & G.

[@debbieinitaly]

Guys- Andrew & Shawn: please post the names of the couple in the notes. Yes- I’ll go to their link, but in middle of watching them. No idea who they are. Introduce them please. 🫶🏻🫶🏻🫶🏻
