Hey our voyagers welcome back to our Channel I am so sorry that we've been m.i.a for the past couple of weeks
We have been enjoying the holidays here with my family in Southern California
We hope you guys had a nice holiday season. In this video
We are going to share with you our new year's resolutions for 2018
we have a lot and we're gonna let you guys in on what those are and
We're gonna take you guys with us and show you some highlights of Southern California today
As we are kind of out and about spending time with my family. All right, stay tuned
So Joseph's pumping the gas. We're filling up the car
This actually is not our car. This is my old car. It's a Nissan Versa
Out-of-focus
it's a Nissan Versa and I sold it to my parents before we hit the road and
Our truck is getting serviced right now. So
My parents were nice enough to let us borrow this for a week
Gracie say hi
Come here
We forgot to get her car seat out of the truck
So unfortunately Gracie does not have her car seat right now. What are you doing? I was just saying that you're pumping the gas
How often would you say that you have to pump the gas? When I'm with you? Yes. 100 percent of the time
You've never pumped gas while I've been in the car. Don't you think that's like the gentlemanly thing to do?
You don't think so? I think if I don't I'll get in trouble
That's not true. How much do you think, how much has your gas pumping gone down since we've got been together I mean significantly but...
Like 99.9 percent more?
How many really good homemade meals have you had? How much how many have those gone up since you and I got together? About the same.
No! Joseph!
That's not true. I make you breakfast all the time. I'm a good cook as well
But who makes you most of the meals? You. Okay, thank you
We are now experiencing Melisa's favorite part of Southern California, what is it?
I hate the traffic. As soon as we got into this part of California
My anxiety just went through the roof and I was reminded why we don't live here anymore
This is not... I mean, it's not even rush hour right now. It shouldn't be
Look at this
She grew up here, but she still can't accept it
It's gotten worse though. It's gotten worse because there's more and more people every year
So, oh, I don't like it.
I don't like it. I mean who does like this? Does anyone like this? Nobody likes this.
Right?
It's on sale. For how much?
$76 dollars. On sale. That's a lot.
Look how cute it is
She's holding a little Santa
So cute. Is that half off?
Yeah
I got to tell you this one looks really scary. They look scary. They're really nice
They're singing. They look like they're screaming. Don't they?
But they're cute
We are back here in the trailer, we had a really nice day with my parents and now it's time for
the purpose of this video
Not this time, which is our 2019 New Year's resolutions
Okay, so what are they?
I thought you were gonna start. You do number 1, I'll do number 2 - okay. So our first one is travel. Why are you
so hyper today? Our first one is travel related and in this past year
2018 we actually ended up going to - how many? 16. I think 16 states total and so in
2019 our new goal is to go to 16 new states. Or more. Or more. So at least 16 states
So that's our goal domestically and then we want to do at least one more international trip in
2019. One new country. One new country that we have not been to before so I think those are good reasonable
Realistic goals for us. Yeah, those are travel goals. Do you want about our YouTube goals next? Yes. YouTube goals
so you guys are part of this, too. You guys are very important part of this.
Our goal by the end of this next year. So by this time next year is to have 10,000 subscribers
So right now we're just under how many? 2,000. So our goal is to get to 10,000 or more
We'd be more than happy with more
10,000 more or we want 10,000 voyagers we're gonna call them but no we love building our community on here
and we really enjoy a YouTube channel and
Having an audience is just a really great thing and we are really passionate about it. So we would love to inspire more people to
take control of their life and
Travel and do whatever it is they want to do that makes them happy. Okay, so that's two - what's number three?
Well, it's related to the YouTube channel, which is with our audience and that is related to our website
www.rvoyagers.com
And we are trying to grow that as well
We are working on building for that
2018 we really really want to kick it up and
Build an audience on there as well and we have articles and other really valuable information on there that you guys might find
inspirational or useful and
We actually had a spotlight of another couple
that we featured on our website a little while ago and we're gonna include them this time we're gonna have them be our
shout out this video because you know
It coincides with them being featured on our website and they are...drumroll. Now you want the drumroll? Yeah
Touring Tastebuds
That's my song sorry it wasn't that great but this is a great couple
We really enjoy them and they're kind of like us on YouTube
They started their channel around the same time that we did and they actually renovated an Airstream. It was an older vintage Airstream
Really great couple and they have an awesome YouTube channel as well
So we will link them below you guys can check them out and we'll also link out the article below on our website that features
Them where we did an interview on them a little while back and when you go to our website
you can click the subscription box on there and
we promise you we have really exciting things coming out on our website and we will be
Working on a newsletter and things like that in 2018. So go ahead and check that out. We will link all that below
What's our next one? This is our last category right? Is fitness? Or do we have one more after that?
Yeah, so fitness we'll do fitness first. So we have two fitness goals. They sound pretty... I think everybody has fitness goals
So we are definitely like most people in this in this case. So we tried to make our goals realistic
It's not like we're saying and we're gonna be you know, working out, you know
Three hours every day and getting ripped or anything like that
We just want to do something that'll help us
stay in shape and get in a little better shape as well at the same time and it's also something that's realistic and that we
Can actually achieve on a you know throughout the whole year 2019
So our goal first off next year is to walk at least an hour every day
So it could be more than an hour, but at least an hour every day. Melisa is really good at this
She does it almost every day right now already. I need to get better at it
Sometimes I take days off and sometimes I do more and I don't get around to it
so a goal every day we walk at least an hour or more and this is really important for being RVers because
Living in an RV you can get really lazy with the amount of steps you take a day because you're in such a small space
And working remotely. We're not going to work. So that is other steps that you would normally get
So that's why we try to remind ourselves to walk at least an hour a day. Mm-hmm
And then on top of that we also.. Melisa is a big tennis player. She was, especially back in her high school days
I am NOT a big tennis player, but I like doing activities with Melisa and this is one sport
She really likes to play
So our next our other goal is we're gonna try to as often as possible obviously weather and climate permitting
play tennis at least once a week so that we can have another form of activity
That we can do together and also get a lot of exercise in which will be really good because when you're playing tennis you burn
burn pretty much everything because you're getting cardio. You're getting muscle building
Coordination and all kinds of stuff. So it's a really good workout. It's a lot of fun
What's the other one? Oh for me?
My personal fitness goal for 2019 is to commit to a yoga practice every single day
I've done this once for 30 days straight and I got great benefits from it, and I don't know what happened
I didn't stick with it
But I should have. So I'm gonna try at least at once a day every day to do some type of yoga
Even if it's just like a 5 or 10 minutes stretching, I think it's really important and my body responds really well to it
So we'll see how I am in 365 days
Starting January 1st. And our final goal
And this is a big one for us because we like to travel internationally and it's something that helps you when you travel
Internationally is to know more than one language. Mm-hmm. And so we obviously we're speaking it right now
We know English that's our native language both of us. But another really popular language across the world is what?
Espanol. Espanol. Spanish. It also ties into Melisa's heritage
She comes from a spanish-speaking family on both her mom and dad's side when you go back to the her grandparents
So it's really important for her to learn Spanish. She didn't learn it completely growing up
She knows bits and pieces. Right.
And I personally I just enjoy the language and it's something I studied in school
But never got to the point where I was
Conversational at it so our big goal for this year is to practice. What did we set as our goal?
We want to practice at least three hours a week and...three hours a week or a day? A week.
So at least kind of every other day. There's a really great app called Duolingo and it's free
I don't know if you've ever heard of it, but you guys should check it out
We're not sponsored or anything by them, but we just like and it's totally free. There's a bunch of languages on there
You can learn and it's really kind of fun interactive learning and we actually found a lot of improvement
Yeah, we've done it in the past for a consistent amount of time and we really saw some improvement
but our big goal here is to
practice it like we said three hours a week and whether that be something like Duolingo or any other type of app or
Watching spanish-language TV, listening to a spanish-language movie, music, reading
Spanish-language or most importantly going out and conversing with people who are fluent in Spanish. Yes
That's the big thing. Sort of taking a dive out the deep end
Melisa is much better at this than I am because she's not as shy around people with speaking
I'm shy speaking English around people sometimes so I'm definitely gonna be shy speaking a language I don't know
That's true. Melisa as
many of you may have noticed if you know her or if you've just seen her these videos she is not shy I
can be
So that's a big goal for us
And that's one we're going to keep in year after year until we do hopefully one day get fluent
Alright, so those are our New Year's resolutions for 2018. I think we can do it, right
I think we can, I think we can, I hope we can, I think we can
Why are you saying it so many times? Like the little engine that could.Oh my gosh.
I think I can, I think I can, I think I can
I'm going to say I hope we can. Not that way it's like an engine
That's what an engine does, doesn't it?
You can do this when you're a choo-choo train, I think I can. I hope I can, I think I can, I know I can. Like do the locomotion. Okay
Let's say we hope we can like the little engine that could
I think I can
We want to know from you guys we want to hear your new year's resolutions for 2019
Let us know in the comment section down below
And if you have any advice of how we can achieve our new year's resolutions
Like learning Spanish, be motivated to do yoga everyday, get to 10,000 subscribers. I don't know whatever it is that we are
Striving for...what? Exactly, if you happen to know 10,000 people that would really help us on the 10,000 subscribers side.
I don't know. Yeah, just have them click that subscribe..no I'm just kidding
If you have 10,000 people who really follow what you say
No, stop
Don't listen to him
No. No. Stop
Listen to me
No
Anything, any advice you guys have let us know in the comment section down below
We appreciate it. And we want to hear your news resolutions. And what else? Oh, yeah video, tell them
Yes we'd also as Melisa so awkwardly tried to prompt me there
We would like to know if you guys have any ideas of what you want to see from our channel in
2019 things you want to maybe see us continue doing or new things we haven't touched yet, new topics, new ideas
New tapics? What's a tapic?
It's like tapas but with topics. You make fun of me, I make fun of you
If you have any new tapics that you'd like us to cover, that's T-A-P-I-C-S, yes trademark pending. Tapics
If you have any new topics that you'd like us to cover
We would love to hear from you. If there's anything that you'd like us to continue doing we'd like to hear that as well
we really want to expand our
Channel and like we talked about our website over this new coming year and get new engaging topics for all of you out there. Yes
Thank you guys so much for your support this year if I could give you a hug I would
We would? Or just? Probably just Melisa
I need to get to know you a little better before I give you a hug
Maybe just a firm handshake?
No, we have a lot of love for you guys, thank you so much
This guy
If you like the video, you know the routine give us a thumbs up if you haven't subscribed go for it
And if you haven't clicked the notification bell do that as well so that you can know when we have new great
Obviously well-rehearsed videos like this. Yeah. Whoa. Oh my god. We ate too many sweets as holiday season. Let's just be honest
We did. That's what I said. We did. That's what I said. No you pointed to me
You always look at the viewers, the camera like they're in on something against me
I'm going to tickle you on camera
Don't act like you're not ticklish
You are ticklish Joseph
Melisa, but not in my arm. You are. True. He's very ticklish. But not in my arm.You are. True but not in my arm
I think you're trying to act like you're not ticklish on camera. But that's alight. I think you're doing
an awkward job of tickling but that's alright as well. Alright we need to end this, wrap this up. Yeah, I already did wrap it up. Wrap it up again
Okay. So again, if you liked this video thumbs up, oh wait yeah we'll see you guys on the video we already did the spiel
