The new travel series of our journey to becoming digital nomads & full-time travelers is here! This is the prelude to the series covering the 3 years of travels before we became the Travel Beans. It is a story of fate and perseverance. We show how our relationship almost didn't start as we very nearly didn't meet and we then tried our best to throw it away. This is a different series than our usual travel vlogs showing how we met in Thailand, backpacking South East Asia, a working holiday visa in Australia, and a lot of coincidences in between.

⭐ About Travel Beans:
Welcome to the official Travel Beans KZfaq channel! On this channel, you’ll find a variety of travel and vlog content, in which you’ll see us in places like Thailand, Japan, USA, Slovenia, and more.
In 2017 we left home with just £500 in our bank account and a dream to make a sustainable travel lifestyle happen! We are now living our dream as digital nomads and want to inspire you to create your own story, whatever it may be!
After 5 years of aimless, yet enjoyable, backpacking around the world we found ourselves in New York City battling with depression. At this point, we decided to go home and confront this problem head-on. After 6 tough months at home we decided to go away again, but this time with a goal in mind.. to turn travel into a lifestyle.
Our time spent battling depression has influenced our outlook on life dramatically! We are now traveling the world in search of what makes us happy. In our vlogs, we talk openly and honestly about our travel experiences, the digital nomad life and depression. We hope our videos can help to inspire you to create a life that makes you happy!

I was always moved by Alex's missed bus story but didn't realise there's so much more to this! Thanks for sharing all these, Alex and Emma. You guys have been an inspiration to leaving my corporate job to moving to Port Barton! Didn't get to closely follow your story after Thailand but got back to watching during your recent Italy series. Really impressed with the upgrades in production: drone shots, voice overs, and video quality without losing that light-hearted sincerity that we all love. Thank you, a lifetime subscriber here. 🍻

I can always give advice about driving safely throughout many countries..even my encounter in Gorski Station.. Good Luck & stay safe.. Martin

I don't really have words for what you guys offer us here. it is so... personnal yet universal. You dare to do this and sort of expose yourself, but it is such a real and beautiful story, the story of your lives until now. With bumps and whatnot. But that makes it so much ... human. Like every one of us. You are no doubt the best travellers channel I ever saw. Because even when you "produce" a video, it still has that real grit to it, that you, and only you are able to pass on to us. Much respect and love

Wow great video and crazy story! I'm glad you guys were fated to find each other and travel the world! I had one of those fate moments in 2018... I graduated college in the US and was set on working in Canada, Ireland or South Korea- I needed to travel!!! But my dad died a month later so I stuck around to grieve and be with my mom. I had zero intentions of being a farmer, but that summer I worked at a small farm and found my life's passion is farming. One of my college friends also turned into the love of my life that summer. We married now! Out of a tragic death, rose many things that have brought me so much love and life. What is life.

Wait?! You had separate lives before becoming Travel Beans? Now I'm even more curious! Alex, last week I was amazed by the story about the coin and the bus. I've heard that notion about the coin flip before. Its not so much leaving big decisions to a 50/50 chance. Its that whilst the coin is in the air, what are you most hoping for, or against. This week, I am even more amazed by what it was that bound you together through the rough times at the start of your relationship. With hindsight we know it was a great coice. But, what was so valuable to you both at the start that held your interest even when time had not yet been invested? Great start to the series Beans. I appreciate the trip down memory lane whilst so many other roads are closed today.

Normally I would find this kind of introspective autobiography self-indulgent and oh so narcissistic, however..I find y'all so charming that I really enjoyed knowing where each of you were coming from....as people. Prob'ly no more or less neurotic than the rest of us. I'm late in seeing this story, so it's weird vis a vis the dynamic, never ending time created by our digital existence. A weird medium is what I'm saying, and the medium is, after all and as Marshal MacLuhan taught us, the message. I can see you good work coming through in t his Alex.
