WE'RE BACK!! Say Hi To Our New Aussie Home!

[@rhonda2310]

I love the love and support in their relationship 🥺 gabe is the most supportive of Jess’ love for Australia and Jess is the most supportive of his journey with depression. They are such good examples for relationships:)

[@officialbridgepodcast]

[@desert_hunter83]

😂🤣

[@HairGal25]

Jess’s accent we gotten stronger since being back. Love it and love seeing them happier

[@silvia135]

def! at the start she said "anodah yahhh" so cute

[@xyzcomp08]

I can see Jess is just a little more happy, not that she isn't normally, but it's obvious! Glad you guys have the means to make this work half way around the world.

[@harm3896]

We don’t use dryers because the sunny smell of the washing once it’s been outside all day is so relaxing and comforting!

[@xyzcomp08]

We used to hang clothes in the US, but everyone is so impatient now. I agree with the fresh smell! Can't beat it!

[@erinloi]

And because of the electricity usage! If it’a good weather (usually is) then we save electricity costs and environmental usage by hanging it. In my opinion, my clothes don’t dry like cardboard - maybe that’s a detergent issue

[@Itsnick99]

We have shit weather in most days during winter but still never use a dryer

[@jessicaripko]

Lol we live in California. We tried to hang our laundry but birds pooed on it 😣

[@juliet-huynh]

Yeah during the summers in the USA, we dry our clothes out in our deck but in winter we use the dryers of course! But I seriously love the warm feeling and the smell! It hits different!!

[@ciamaechamae7678]

And we're all here looking back to previous videos because we missed signs that she is pregnant 😂🥺💖😭 Congratulations guysssss!!!!

[@shayleetaillefer7684]

I love the references to old jokes and memories lol I remember all that stuff from 2017, as soon as you said ‘Gabe wanted me to film’ I knew exactly what was going to happen, it’s awesome seeing how much has changed and still stayed the same

[@kathausmann]

Please tell me I am not the only one who smiled at the screen while watching. So happy for you guys! Missed you❤️

[@susanmcguire4664]

I live in Sydney, Australia and have always had a clothes dryer in the different apartments and houses that I have lived in. During winter time when it is cold and rainy weather for weeks there is no way I could cope without having a clothes dryer. Your new Aussie home looks great. Thanks for the tour. I love how you are decorating it, well done getting so many bargains!

[@susanab7]

Yes 'carked' is Aussie slang for when something has died. I think Jess just diverts back to the real Aussie language when she's home 😊

[@alyssalovescats7]

thank you loll

[@natahliajoy7606]

And nz we say it too

[@anginieka]

Thank you so much I probably replayed it like 6 times trying to understand… then I thought it was just because of the mask 🤣

[@hadassahBespokejamison]

I'm glad they explained it. I'm from the US and was so confused at what she said lol

[@ericamary6778]

Agree. I'm not happy she loses her aussie accent sometimes but what can I do lol

[@Taylor_xo]

There are so many benefits of hang drying your washing. - it’s great for your electricity bill - we mainly always have nice weather so you get to work on your tan - you get to go outside - won’t cause a fire and burn your house down - my dog hangs out with me more Anyways congrats on your aussie apartment! It’s already so cute. Can’t wait to see more Aussie vlogs!

[@thabopitsoo]

I’m so happy for you guys I know you’ve been believing for your own home in Australia for a while now missed ya!🥲

[@teganbull1222]

This has got to be one of the most Australian vlogs I’ve seen from you guys in a while 😂😂 I love Jess using Australian slang. We also don’t use dryers a lot because it’s so expensive!!!

[@firilo1]

yes was coming here to say this. we dont run it unless we have too coz of the cost

[@beckyhughes1077]

Yay! Huge congratulations on this beautiful apartment 🥰❤ On Gabe's question about tumble dryers, Australia is very similar to South Africa in this sense. Hang drying for the win - tumble drying is very energy intensive so chows your electricity bill and isn't eco friendly. Hang drying is also more gentle on your clothes so they last longer 🌻✨

[@erinloi]

Yes! 💫

[@finchrollah8656]

Imagine not having a dryer lmao

[@TumiPitswane]

I’m South African and I got to agree!

[@jamiepaltridge3052]

I am an Australian living in Brisbane as well and I have never had a dryer in my life and I only see a dryer when I go on holidays to the beach or somewhere and even then when I have clear access to it I still hang clothes up on like railings on the balcony or just around the apartment but just never used the dryer LMAO

[@kaitlynkent4741]

11:40 I would just like to say. I understood and appreciated that reference 👏

[@RetroSparklesx]

When Jess first said carked it, I was like she has definitely settled back into Aus 😂 we don’t use dryers because we have the beautiful Australian sun and can preserve energy and save money on electricity👌

[@mariefepito6411]

SO HAPPY FOR YOU GUYS! KEEP GOING AND SLAYIIIIN'. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELVES. WE'RE ROOTING FOR YOU GUYS! ♥️

[@2012Gleefan]

I love watching Jess and Gabe vlogs. Something so comforting. Little did we know though that they was pregnant at this point - but ALSO now rewatching this video (cause I'm that sad I just rewatch all there old videos....) when they are explaining stuff like why they are renting the apartment or they have a spare bedroom with nothing in it, you can just see the little smiles as if to say... well we know why but you guys don't...yet!

[@erinloi]

And because of the electricity usage! If it’s good weather (usually is) then we save electricity costs and environmental usage by hanging it. Doesn’t usually take long if you hang in the morning and busy during the day, the afternoon they should be dry especially if hung outside in sun or even under shade. In my opinion, my clothes don’t dry like cardboard - maybe that’s a detergent issue. Also a lot of things shrink in the dryer and isn’t so gentle of fabrics for longevity. :)

[@celinecassar3527]

Congratulations guys!! I love how humble and positive you both are 😍 So happy to see Gabe a bit better than last time. Take care guys 🤍

[@nar1708]

Glad you're feeling better, Gabe ❤ missed you guys! Congratulations on your new place!

[@sherien_]

You now have two lovely homes in both countries... I couldn't be happier. Congrats guys and all the best wishes💛

[@RenaLi]

Seeing the title of this video made me so happy, knowing how much Jess has missed being in Australia with her family. So happy for them !!

[@fizzz7867]

Seeing Gabe's and jess's smile has been such a highlight in the lockdown. Thank you for all the effort the both of you put in your vids for us💙💙

[@DhruvCanada]

Absolutely!!

[@lillywilson8957]

2:50 GABRIEL PLEASE I WAS SO READY FOR THE NOSTALGIA AND YOU SAID SIKE

[@samanthahughes5590]

To dry things naturally its best to put washing on before bed and hang it up before 9am. In winter you want to hang it up before 8am in the sun and take it off before 3.30 to 4pm.

[@stinearnes980]

This vlog reminds me soo much of the good old Jess and Gabe vlogs, sooo refreshing to see! You look so happy and motivated!!

[@rachellewis263]

I love seeing all of your Aussie adventures 😊 As a fellow Queenslander, I don’t use our dryer (unless it’s raining) mostly to save money on the power bill. Also, the sun can help get out stains in your clothes 😊

[@jocelyn_andrea]

Dryers take unnecessary electricity when the sun can do the same! Only use ours if it’s raining and we have too, or we want it dried super fast

[@bensonboib]

CONGRATS GUYS!!!! SO PROUD OF EVERYTHING YOU HAVE ACCOMPLISHED ❤️❤️

[@wauwa4881]

WOHO!!! So happy for you guys! God bless as you start this new journey! 😁❤️

[@kristinavassileva5198]

I have been following you guys since 2016. Back then I still live in Europe. I was dating the love of my life and we had a long long distance relationship for 3+ years and are now living together in San Francisco California. You guys brought me so much hope And strength that I can make this whole thing come true and be with the love of my life. Watching you and your love for each other grow has been an immense support to me!!

[@valeriiademianenko5155]

Omg, what a story😍 thanks for sharing❤ I wish you all the best💫

[@dalilahulaya3646]

just seeing the thumbnail, i knew right away how happy you guys are. love seeing those smile 🥰💐

[@rafiasaleh5397]

in the front area, I would put a rack for jackets and coats, and a little front table for keys and such!

[@graced-gracelee8019]

Aww... congratulations guys, finally a Aussie homeee!!❤️🌻

[@jaylorraine5804]

I’m an Australian born and raised in Adelaide and we don’t use a dryer unless it is raining outside because it is expensive to use a dryer all the time and not as energy efficient. I don’t own a dryer in my apartment…washing machine and a clothes airer and we are good to go!

[@brittrux]

We usually only use a dryer if it’s raining. And usually in summer it’s hot enough that it dries super quick. Saves on the power bill aswell.

[@lydiehartiel9070]

The window overlooking the carpark reminded me of The Office! 😂 Love you brother and sister in Christ. ❤

[@janiest-georges5474]

The dryer thing I also was confused when I moved from Canada to aus but it's because technically the dryer can mess up the fibers etc in your clothes and most places in aus, it's warm enough to hang your clothes outside (+save money)

[@andreaneeve9068]

I just realised how I’ve been watching you guys for 4 years. Im turning 20 soon and started watching when I was 15/16😭😭 How is that real

[@kel.o.00]

As an Australian I use my dryer for everything.... Hate towels not dried in the dryer!

[@carlys5258]

I love hanging my washing out in the sunshine, makes it much more fresh ☀️

[@nicole.larson]

I don’t want to come off as inconsiderate or rude about baby comments but you guys have mentioned multiple times that getting a place in both America and Australia was a crucial factor in when you wanted to have kids and I’m so excited to watch you get to this place! I love you guys so much and I can’t wait for that stage in your lives weather it’s soon or not 🤍🤍 love from Wisconsin

[@ameliabartrip7006]

2017 reference- loved it. I'm so happy for you guys, thankyou for your videos in the past 5 years of my life :)

[@korinal2942]

I’ve always been told to only use the dryer when it’s raining or for socks and small things because it’s an unnecessary cost when you can dry your clothes free

[@AnitanAlice]

Aussie here! I have a dryer but I don't use it cause it's expensive to run. Outside is...free! And more environmentally friendly too. Every place I've lived in has had an outdoor space with an undercover spot if the weather's bad. If the weather is really horrible, like torrential rain/winds, I just let my clothes drip dry and then let them finish drying inside.

[@Holly-cd8ll]

We only use the dryer for towels & bed linen usually! The dryer uses a lot of power/energy and the cost of electricity in aus is crazy! Also the line dry just keeps everything fresh and natural ❤️❤️

[@emilyxoxelise11783]

I never put expensive or my favourite clothes in the dryer as it can shrink them. We only use the dryer for towels or clothes that aren’t as important.

[@katemarthytuya4294]

The family is growing!!! so happy for you guys!!

[@bunszilla]

Our sun is harsh enough to dry clothes and etc within an hour, also energy bills are extremely expensive here unless you have solar paneling. We keep a dryer for emergencies, when it rains.

[@Grace-kl7lz]

dryers. you save money and electricity by not using them, it’s a reason to go outside, snd dryers crinkle clothes more. plus clothes feel better and smell better if the line

[@delaneyvolleyball6804]

I still watch from 2017 and I was expecting Gabe to dance while Jess sang!!!

[@kieraj6784]

I love how Jess talks with more accent and aussie terms when she is home. 🥰

[@jannestam]

petition to get the 2017 dancing-in-front-of-the-car-gabe back!!! i got such déja vu hahaha

[@misheckardt4365]

Jess seems so happy. I'm obsessed with her humour and jokes in this vlog. So good.

[@rachderiggi7955]

I live in Melbourne & I have a dryer I pretty much only use it in winter time. In summer/nice weather I just use the clothes line outside… however before we had a dryer & it was winter we use to put the clothes on a clothes horse and stick it in front of the heater

[@marilinakiousi]

ABOUT THE LITTLE EREA YOU HAVE YOUR PUANO u can make it a little place for you to have your shoes on, sit down and take them off or put it on and hang your jackets somewhere. A little basket for umbrellas etc.

[@xokelseyxo9238]

This vlog was threaded with so much pure happiness!!! Congratulations Jess and Gabe, on your new Australia home. It is absolutely gorgeous. I can't wait for future vlogs in it. ❤️

[@angelinegabrido]

Really excited for this video!!! Thank you for another content ♥️ stay safe, love you both!!

[@sierrabarr1702]

I love watching you two, I always get a few genuine laughs in and you guys brighten my day so much!

[@katrinamiller7077]

Was it just me or did this video bring back some of their old vid style nostalgia…😍😍 never gets old you guys🙌🏼👏🏼

[@lulublue5680]

This feels like you guys with more happiness and drying your cloths outside get rid of the bacteria even if you wash it it's better hanging in the sun

[@joyrachelfinn]

The dance in front of the car! Yes bring it back even if it’s only once!

[@tokatoasumi7588]

Such an adorable Amazing and inspirational couple ❤️

[@leannereilly]

In Ireland we don't use dryers either. We either hang things on the washing line outside if the weather is good or in the hot press. We only put bigger things like bed sheets, duvet covers and towels in the dryer because it's so expensive to use. Gotta think of the bargains!!! 😂😂😂

[@ArielStar]

Lovely apartment for 2 lovely individuals! Also, I think people dry clothes outside because sometimes the dryer shrinks clothes, save money, and just to get outside of the house, lol.

[@jamieashton7285]

So glad you’re back home with your family 😍

[@DhruvCanada]

Congratulations Jess & Gab you both rock will always rock🔥 you’re the best rocks of usa and Australia😂🤣

[@EveFaison]

Yay!! Guess who’s back? Back again!! Glad y’all took time to rest and spend time away from work and KZbin. Happy for y’all💕

[@hannah222555]

haha! The dryer discussion. The Aussie sun is so warm we always let it naturally dry - to save electricity not really - just because it usually dries in a day. We make the most of our sun. 🙌🏼

[@kmitte03]

Welcome back guys! We hang dry because the using the dryer costs money- it really drives up the energy bill. Not to mention the ‘fresh’ smell of drying things outside!

[@sienastubbs4582]

BRING BACK THE JUJU 😭 also love the new apartment

[@rubymcknight6934]

I didn't even question when she said her toothbrush carked it ahaha so normal to hear that kind of thing being from nz

[@fsh1777]

Congratulations on your new home in Australia. I love watching your videos.

[@candysissi]

You two are stinking cute and hilarious. I love you, guys.

[@chrisroberts8369]

Welcome to Australia guys

[@shmogga]

I live in the Gold Coast Australia and I much prefer the dryer even if it’s sunnier outside!

[@zebrasbean2385]

I hope they move their permanently , it would be such a nice place to raise kids and Jess seems so happy

[@phoeb7538]

soooo THIS is why they went home👀🤰🏻

[@megsk4759]

We don’t use dryers because it uses more power it’s better for your clothes it’s make your clothes smell fresher and it’s easy

[@akifahabrahams2530]

We don't use tumble dryers in Cape Town either. We hang everything on the line 🤣🤣

[@burtonaSA]

Hi from South Africa ✨ we also don't use our dryers 😂 ours has been sitting next to the washing machine for 20 years and I don't even know if it still works 😂 probably not.

[@mariabarrios5518]

I LOVE YOU BOTH 😭😭😭 Congratulations to you both!! I’m so happy for you, missed you!!❤️

[@WildWorldFact]

SO HAPPY FOR YOU GUYS! KEEP GOING AND SLAYIIIIN'. TAKE CARE OF YOURSELVES. WE'RE ROOTING FOR YOU GUYS! ️ . Thanks for sharing

[@itsoangel]

I don't use a dryer because most of the time it's sunny and humid especially being in QLD. Plus you save electricity

[@BeccaFilipski]

So nice to have you guys back!!! Your new Aussie home looks so cozy I love it!!! Hope you guys enjoyed your break you definitely deserved for all the hard work you guys have been doing!! I love you guys so much!💛

[@strafka_]

OMG FINALLY GUYSSS IM SO HAPPPPYYYY😍congrats!!

[@breannaivers1579]

Don’t use a dryer as much because it’s actually faster to dry clothes outside because it’s so hot.. plus saves power. Also, your apartment is so cute!! Love all the bargains!! 💕

[@gabrielavega6215]

Babe reminds me of my husband when he’s talking about the dryer situation 😂 I am Mexican and he is not so he always comments on things we do differently but in a loving way haha and it’s funny

[@beatrizduenas647]

I miss you!! So fun to watch your videos again!

[@meanNATUmean]

Love it well done 😍👏🏾 oh my gosh I love hanging out washing (especially in the sunny state) and it’s nice when it hasn’t shrunk in dryer🤣 but also no matter how it’s dried I hate putting it away 👚👖

[@carolinelieser3546]

I used to use Carked it all the time in England not in the US Ive not said now im going to say it now to see if I get a reaction from my hubby. I great to see you both back.

[@breeana2879]

With the dryer debacle lol, it’s just safer to hang out the washing here because clothes shrink in the dryer, it’s an actual thing, and some clothes will say on the care tag to not put in the dryer 👍🏼

[@magdalenamacuba700]

In different country in EUROPE we don't use the dryer and it's normal for us. But depend on the country you live it's expansive have a dryer.

[@jennabarnett6546]

If you don’t put your clothes in the dryer they will last so much longer!! I have lived in Canada where everything goes in the dryer and England where no one has dryers. Now I hang things I want to last and use the dryer for pajamas, towels, bedding etc.

[@savannahwarner4613]

I'm from South Africa and we hardly use my tumble dryer only in winter, sometimes hahah

[@HannahSaidLikeHana]

YAY! 🙌 Catchin' Up With The Contes! 🙌 As a kiwi, I loved the use of 'Carked' with 'toothbrush'! 😄 And yes, it's line dryyy unless it's raining 🌧️ Also, couldn't help noticing the lamp was called Mirabella, Casa. 🌺 Encanto, anyone? 💁‍♀️

[@caroltassin4049]

Really nice place, glad you get to split your time with both families!!! You didn't mention Milo??????

[@varuni6992]

the "bargains" has been ringing in my head for 2 day. thanks gabriel🤣

[@HannahGeorgia]

So happy for you guys! We're the same in the UK, we all have dryers but only really use them for Bedding/Towels. Also can't believe I've been watching since BEFORE the Juju, when you said 2017 I choked!

[@harm3896]

Finally an Aussie house!!!
