We surprised our family in England 🇬🇧

We flew to England for the first time in 13 months to surprised our family! After leaving Russia, we flew to London Heathrow where we were met by our parents. The next day we surprised our Grandparents who thought they were meeting our parents for dinner. This was honestly one of our most incredible moments, we were so nervous that they would find out somehow but, thankfully, it went off without a hitch! This vlog is from our first few days back in England, we are here for the next 3 weeks so stay tuned for lots more content coming from the UK! 🤗

We surprised our family in England 🇬🇧

Awesome homecoming Matt & Julia, thanks for sharing! You have a beautiful family Matt!

[@alisonmuckert572]

What a lovely family you have Matt, I bet they were so happy to see you both. I hope you’re okay Julia, praying for your family in Russia❤️

[@MattandJulia]

Thank you so much Alison! They really were ❤️❤️❤️

[@joannmcgowan9394]

Oh wow ! I think I cried through the whole thing ! Your family is so sweet Matt! What a beautiful reunion especially with your grandparents ❤️ You guys are amazing - your emotions are so real- and I am actually starting all over from the beginning to show my husband and he is so enjoying it ! We are also keeping you all in our prayers - I think of you every day and your family in Russia - love you guys ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️💙💛💙

[@Deathwing2001]

Great video Matt and Julia. It got me a little choked up. I’m glad you got to go back to England and see your family again. I remember the video when you guys left there to be professional travellers, it seems like a million years ago now. Your dog is awesome too. 🐕 😀

[@MattandJulia]

Thank you so much, means a lot! 🥰 For us too! It is crazy how much has happened in the past year or so! 😯 Ned says hi! 👋🏻❤️

[@seaprincess700]

This is one of the most heartfelt and wholesome videos I've watched in a while. You guys are beautiful people! Love from Manila. :)

[@johnvsymons]

Great to see the heartwarming family reunion. I must admit that I am totally confused as to where you are now(March 4, 2022). Are you still in Sochi or did you relocate to another country? Wherever you are, I pray that you are safe, healthy and happy. Take care, you sweet people and have a pleasant and rewarding weekend. 👍🤗❤🙏🌎

[@MattandJulia]

Thank you so much John! Our vlogs are about a month or so behind ‘real time’ at the moment 🥰 we are fine and in another part of the world, to be revealed soon 😊❤️

[@Jensie50]

So nice to be able to share in the joy and emotions of your family reunion after such a long period of absence! Thanks so much!! Ned is so cool; may be advanced in years, but still enjoying life and outings and treats and all the love bestowed on him!

[@kabardinka1]

Neddd-dddd. Sweet boy. That surprise appearance was amazing. Bacon sandwiches with brown sauce... genuine British gourmet cuisine.

[@MattandJulia]

Haha, it is British cuisine at its finest 😁❤️

[@Snagprophet]

I hope you are safe at this terrible time. Channels like yours have given me a wonderful impression of Russia and ex soviet countries and I hope there is a future for a democratic Russia. Thank you for the content. ♥️♥️♥️

This is interesting to see. I lived in Sweden for 20 years and your trip back to England is just like it used to be for me. Going home for Christmas was always nice, but so was going home for Summer too. Nice. I wonder Matt, do you fill your suitcase with Tea bags before traveling back. I used to make sure I had enough Custard Powder, Marmite, Lemsip and Lockets to tide me over for a while. I hope you are both safe and well.
