What's Next for Away Together?

[@awaytogether]

Hi everyone - Thank you all SO MUCH for your kind messages, AND for taking the survey! 🥇 Grand Prize winner: Nick A. 🥈 First Runner Up: Elwood S. 🥉 Second Runner Up: Bridget R. P.S. sorry about the low sound on some devices.

[@catkajary4415]

Oh thank god. I was worried this video would be to thank the subscribers but tell us that you will not longer be running this channel. So relieved to hear it's the opposite. You two are so wonderful and Allie; it will be great to see you in more videos too! Congrats!

[@GaryKarr]

Same, I was thinking the same thing! Glad it is not. 🙂

[@juditmihalovits4641]

@catkajary4415, That’s what I thought also, I was like nooooo!! I’m glad it’s not, I like to watch them, get ideas .

[@ladymoon425]

Saw the title & thought you were ending the site ! So happy you’re still going to be here, & that this has worked out so well for you. Congrats🎉 & best wishes to you both. 🙋‍♀️

[@chrisrobinson3980]

Yup, me too! So glad we still have much to look forward to!

[@PotatoSpudRucking]

i hought they were getting divorced… 😱

[@lizamorning5356]

I went to Europe with carry-on only for the first trip ever. substantially, thanks to you and your luggage review and other advice.

[@jeanniemarkech351]

Same! We always have done just carry-on. It is so much less hassle.

[@TheMemoman]

What a nice recognition from Nik to Allie working it hard behind the scenes. Amazing teamwork. Best of luck in your future endeavors. You'll always be in my heart as the gateway to packing cubes and light traveling.

[@curtischen8440]

Thanks!

[@leighbarborek6223]

Whew! Thought you guys were calling KZbin quits! I love your videos! So helpful in multiple ways. Congratulations Allie!

[@lowellaguno]

Now that Allie is on board full-time, "Away Together" will only get better. Thank you for the helpful travel info & insights in the past. And wishing your family blessings this Thanksgiving Day and in the coming Holiday season.

[@windsongdesigns6655]

I was worried you were going to say you were leaving KZbin! Your channel has helped me so much with my upcoming 2 month trip. I used to take a very full checked bag and with this trip I will only be taking a single carry on. Many thanks to you both. Hugs from Canada.

[@sarahdugan6590]

I got a tad nervous reading the header...you folks are one of my FAVORITE travel channels (along with Wolter's World) and I'd be so sad to have y'all go away. All the best in this new step forward (and it was wonderful to hear a spouse give props so well to their partner... #goals)!

[@catkajary4415]

Yes, my thoughts exactly! And I also love Wolter's World.

[@ablackmore]

Your channel is one of my favorites to watch! Excited to see the new content and direction!

[@dcnavis]

You scared me! I thought you were going to tell us you were no longer going to continue the channel. Thank you so much for continuing the channel ... we have really enjoyed the way you present. It's organized, practical and it's exudes your character and qualities. It's especially helpful seeing how to travel with kids. Where in the world are Nik and Allie next?

[@sheetalpatel7083]

Me too! So happy now, lol!

[@chrissybabyist]

Awesome, I found you guys because I am going to Greece in September. Its my first international trip, and this channel has helped me learn so much about traveling abroad.

[@curtischen8440]

I watch so many travel related content on KZbin and I find your channel both informative and also calming....something about your style and tone that keeps me listening and coming back. Keep it going and look forward to supporting you guys... I'm a 64 year old US expat working in Shanghai, so business travel still rules my life...but in 2.5 more years I hope this changes to retirement travel!!!

[@cadsmom]

Congratulations on your decision! So happy for you guys! I left a well paying job a few years after our son was born so I could focus on him and our family. It was the best decision and I have no regrets. I wouldn't have the same memories with him if I had continued to work outside the home. He's now 19 and well on his way to pursuing his dreams and my husband and I have the opportunity to do some full-time international travel! Woo hoo! Your channel has been helpful in our planning so I'm happy to hear you're kicking it up a notch and not ending the channel!

[@102810281028nl]

I just got to finish your video this morning, glad your not quitting your channel. Your channel really helps me out. Thank you

[@hpc2753]

“You’re” not leaving your channel

[@timl8406]

Thank you for being a parent to your daughter. My sister left her profession for the same reason. Your children only grow up once. Love all your travel videos.

[@mathewhunt81]

Hey glad to see that you guys arent quitting, in fact you guys are stepping it up a notch! id like to see a simple walk through on easy banking for people with less than spectacular credit scores. Perhaps how to get perks and cards that will help if you are somewhat losing your arse living in America, I am a 100% disabled veteran and I can no longer afford to maintain a decent lifestyle here any more and am better off living without borders to enjoy life. Keep up those great videos and expand your horizons while you are young, Regret is for not trying, scars are for failing, scars are cool stories, regret is for sadness on your death bed. NO ATTEMPT NO GLORY LADS !

[@meadsummer6547]

Wishing you both a blessed Thanksgiving and Christmas season. Like many of your viewers, I look forward to seeing what's to come!

[@fred6132]

Bravo to Nik and Allie....appreciate the love and respect for Allie that you trumpeted Nik! What you provide is invaluable to the current and would be travelers. Lead well and often my friends!!

[@joecampo1770]

Being present for your family is irreplaceable time that is priceless, it will be one of the best decisions you will ever make.. enjoy the ride!

[@ElectiveAmputation]

Congratulations!!!! I know how much work this is. We watch your channel almost every day because our family is doing the same early next year. 🤞🏻

[@thomasquigley7040]

And a big thanks to you two. I’ve used a lot of your videos to plan my trips.

[@LindaNicholas-b7t]

I have enjoyed your content and thorough discussion of various travel items. I went on a 3-week European trip this fall and relied on your opinions and careful weighing of various suitcases so I could travel light this time. It was a great success! Thanks SO much!

[@LauraWahl-jm8wm]

So relieved to hear that your channel is sticking around! Congratulations to you both!

[@darrylk808]

Your videos are very informative. It's great that you can pay for your travels from this channel and keep doing what you love. Keep chasing the dream, but don't forget to invest in your retirement.

[@juliannelaird43]

Congratulations, you guys! I always watch your videos! I retired 2 years ago, and I am beginning my traveling adventures! I am 62 and I travel solo, so I am packing ultra minimalist so that I can handle my stuff. I have made one big trip, so far, and I have 2 booked! So excited!!!

[@colleenc5008]

Glad to hear that you're staying online! Congratulations to Allie on one successful career - on to another! Looking forward to seeing what comes next. Happy Thanksgiving!

[@AtheosThinker]

Good for you/your family! I'm at the other end where one of my kids has lived in various places in Europe the past 10 years and this is our prompt for traveling to places we never imagined we would. Your channel has been extremely helpful, genuine, and insightful - especially on "gear/packing" etc. Thank you and I'm sure your channel/website will flourish.

[@birdee18]

Congratulations! So excited to see more of Allie!

[@Michael_Terry]

Excited for what's to come. So cool to have travel creators from my neck of the woods!

[@angiemann4281]

My hubby and I are leaving in two weeks for a 12 day European 30th anniversary trip- our first trip to Europe- and doing carry on only thanks to so many of your recommendations! I planned the entire trip myself and we are doing 4 countries!

[@floagudelo184]

I just found your channel and I was worried that you were not going to do any more videos! I'm so relieved that you will be creating more content! Your videos are so informative and helpful! Thank you!

[@JohnDoe-sr1dd]

Appreciate this channel and the way you give practical advice in a concise, no BS way. I watch a LOT of travel channels on my way to my personal goal of 100 countries (on #70 and counting) and most are either poorly done or trying to be too cute/flashy. Sometimes you just want honest, practical advice from real people. Thank you!

[@khomichuk]

FYI, the sound on your video is very quiet.

[@laura_and_shanman]

Agreed - couldn't hear!

[@KathrynMueller-d8x]

I needed to use cc

[@gareman9417]

I can't hear a damn thing I too needed CC

[@juditmihalovits4641]

@khomichuk, then something is wrong with your end I can hear them clearly 🤷‍♀️

[@tacoma_jon]

@@juditmihalovits4641nope it’s pretty quiet.

[@katedauphinee7536]

Phew! I thought you were going away forever! Thanks for all the great tips!

[@kmcphotographytx6396]

I’ve loved watching you guys grow on this channel! So excited to keep watching you guys!

[@eheller24]

Whew! My heart skipped a beat when I read the title of this latest video. I thought you were going to announce giving up your youtube channel and that would have devastated me!!! I just discovered you guys last week as I was researching carry-on luggage. (I ended up getting the soft sided TravelPro). I immediately subscribed to your channel and have since watched so many of your helpful videos. I'm so happy that you guys are sticking around and will be going full-time with your content - sharing both helpful and inspiring information related to travel. Praise the lord! I totally forgive you for scaring me for a second there. Happy Thanksgiving to you guys and to your little world traveller in training. Cheers!

[@questswithtrevandlex]

Congrats to your family! Have loved watching you guys for the last couple years! You guys also helped inspire me to create my own channel with my wife for our travel! Keep up the great work!

[@khc8800]

I’m a new subscriber and glad to see you’re expanding. The reason I appreciate these videos is the clarity and descriptive emphasis in your presentations. It’s probably just your natural talent, so anything related to travel will be interesting to me.

[@Trippin4datrips]

Love the information! Glad to see you all soar like eagles! Keep the great tips coming. Would love to do what you do! Thanks for being an inspiration!

[@misslu1212]

Glad you’re not leaving the channel! Thank you for your hard work. Happy Thanksgiving 🦃

[@journeyman138]

My only suggestion is to make travel point suggestions based on region and reward partners. As someone who lives in the deep southeast, Delta is my closest airline and I have been Hilton Gold and Diamond for many years. Neither of those two brands are part of the Chase reward partners where I can trasfer points. So I am evaluating which direction I should go. Please keep up the travel accessories as I ordered a bag for my wife's birthday for our upcoming trip next year. Congrats to Allie on her transition into a full time TY content creator and a more available mother. You two are wonderful to watch.

[@dstephens4299]

Good for you Nik and Allie - you’ll never regret the decision to invest this time with your family - and now also do what you love, together ;) Your daughter will grow so fast and she will have the advantage of experiencing different cultures and challenges that will serve her all her life. On top of that, we all get to look forward to seeing what you have next! Your content is always concise, clear and useful. God bless you all!

[@kathleengarner9056]

Yay! Congrats to you both. I have been watching for a while. I don’t do a lot of travel but when I do, your insights have always helped me. I look forward to seeing this next chapter of away together ❤

[@crrizello5157]

I really enjoy your channel. It is exciting that you two can do this together.

[@cristinaph]

Congratulations on this exciting new chapter for you both! The best is yet to come. Wishing you every success! ❤

[@jesseh.5141]

No, no... Thank you!! I do not travel that much except for a couple of trips a year, but I have found myself using your feedback and knowledge you've shared here to better plan my trips near and far. People like you make the world a better and more fun place. Thank you.

[@hamzalanka8940]

Congrats fam!! Love your videos. Been very helpful.

[@moderick]

Well done, and thank you for doing what you are doing.

[@L04w031]

Wow…. Congratulations guys… I was able to travel with my daughter last year… by ordering your review on MONOs… I am buying a second sets os MONOs today… my son will join us traveling to Japan, Thailand, and Cambodia in June 2025… once again Congrats, as a travel family creating content … that help us travel easier … God Bless Hank

[@cathysmith4625]

Congratulations! Looking forward to new videos and new inspiration. Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving.

[@AnnaLMarin]

Thank you for your very helpful KZbin videos. I have enjoyed them greatly since I started watching them. Perhaps on some of your future travels you could talk about the logistics of a particular airport you’re in. I’ve traveled a lot but lately it seems I get confused or lost in airports. For instance, on a recent trip back from Mexico through Houston getting from terminal E to immigration and then to terminal C for our next flight was a nightmare. If you could maybe talk about the airport you’re visiting and how you got around or navigated them. It would be very helpful. Thank you

[@mikes5784]

Thank you for everything you’ve done for our travel. Have a blessed Thanksgiving

[@rexbarcarse6022]

Thank you! I got worried at first I thought you guys are leaving..just used your channel for tips and recommendations from a recent trip and got us prepared and equipped efficiently. Mediterranean cruise, Paris and London. Made our vacation a huge success and enjoyable! Just finished the survey, looking forward for more with your channel.

[@hectorrodriguez3169]

I love your channel. I’ve learned so much about travel from you both. Congrats and I look forward to the next chapter.

[@mcleanmj116]

Happy thanksgiving. Your channel is absolutely fantastic-on par with Rick Steves! The videos are incredibly informative, well-researched, and engaging. Best of luck with your new plans.

[@thecleaningteacher638]

Congratulations! Your kindness and integrity shine through on every video. I know your channel will continue to grow. Happy Thanksgiving and many blessings on this new adventure. 🙏🏼🦃🎉

[@claireneilson2441]

I haven’t flown for over ten years , I’ve loved watching your videos on packing and suitcase brands , I ended up choosing July carry on light as emirates are so strict on carry on measurements 😵‍💫 I’m heading to UK in April 😁 congrats on a great channel from Brisbane 😊

[@thomasgibson6259]

For the new year…maybe for the updated website…could you give us a thorough rundown on the pros & cons, ups & downs, ins & outs of travel insurance? It’s a confounding subject! Foreign medical coverage is my biggest concern…even more than travel interruption. What are the best options & choices? And how to go about making those decisions?

[@phillebusque6443]

Thx for all the advise and tips. I have used some to great success . Good luck to channel and family, I look forward to future content

[@kennethwu115]

Good luck for the future guys. Will be following you

[@bradsimpson8977]

Fantastic. I like the view from here. Thanks so much for all you do.

[@scooterdmc]

Glad you will still be helping me to be a one bag traveller. A big market for minimalist travel is Camino de Santiago.

[@MaryEllenLaw]

Great and exciting news! So happy for you both! Love your channel and have learned a lot. Will definitely take your survey. Best of luck!

[@02Hrothgar]

We are so incredibly thankful for yall! Wishing your family nothing but the best! Happy Holidays! So happy for yall!

[@ShelbyAlbarran-yz7re]

Can we get a video about travel insurance? My husband and I are planning to travel more in 2025 and one trip requires medical travel insurance. We don’t know where to start

[@ctrabada]

Wishing you much success. Love your channel.

I’ve used a number of tips and tricks from you guys to plan my trip to New Zealand, which I’m now watching from the airport in Auckland, thanks!!

Happy Thanksgiving. God bless you both as well as your family. 🙏🏼

The sound of this video should be a lot louder. Other than your wonderful contents, one of the reasons I love your channel is that your speeches are loud n clear. Keep up the good work!
