My wife and I are checking a big trip off our bucket list this year: drive our RV to every Cowboys game!
We've been thousands of miles across the U.S.A so far, and our road trip is not even half over.
In this video, we go from Charlotte, NC (loss against the Panthers), to Dallas, TX (a must-win against the Commanders.
We really love the app called Harvest Host. We use this app to find places to park our rig every night. They are affordable, fun and are a great place to meet fellow RV people. (Shoutout to Wayne & Cherri)
THANKS FOR WATCHING, GO COWBOYS
TIMESTAMPS:
00:00 -We didn't play well enough to win against the Panthers
1:44 - DEADLIEST ANIMALS CAUGHT ON TAPE
4:27 - Thank you to the Chicago Bears!

![I was told not to bring my baby to China... ðšð³
From cuddly panda bears to a jaw-dropping drone show with thousands of synchronized lights, this was one of the most incredible days of our trip to China! ðŒâš
We started the day with an emotional visit to the Chengdu Panda Base (Jean might have found her favorite animal!), followed by a beautiful cultural celebration at the 9th International Festival of Intangible Cultural Heritage.
This video includes some of the best food weâve had in China â from pork neck to fancy Western steak â plus a surprise DJ party at the end!
But the real showstopper? A 3,000-drone performance lighting up the night sky. Truly a moment weâll never forget.
ð¥ Featuring:
Pandas doing panda things ðŒ
Gala night in a stadium
Ivanaâs backwards dress moment ð
Baby Jean making new friends â€ïž
The most over-the-top drone show ever
Food. So. Much. Food.
This was a special day. We hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

![This is why everybody is OBSESSED with China ðšð³ @ Jinjiang, Chengdu
We traveled to Chengdu, China, for a guided tour with a full itinerary of the top tourist attractions in this region. We have been invited by trip.com, in combination with Sichuan Tourism Department. We are confident this itinerary will contain the must-see destinations, as well as some hidden gems.
Chengdu is home of the panda, which we will be seeing in our next video. In the meantime: we enjoyed some great Sichuan food (hot pot) with an incredibly friendly staff.
We also shopped along Chunxi road, where the Chinese government is now offering instant tax rebates for foreigners. Very convenient.
Lastly, we took the night cruise in the river, where the flute player in the small lantern filled boat was quite memorable.
Stay tuned for more Chengdu good stuff!

![STRESSFUL arrival in Kenya (First time in Nairobi) ð°ðª
Our first time in Kenya!
Head to https://betterhelp.com/jetlagwarriors to get 10% off your first month with our paid partner, BetterHelp. Therapy can be a meaningful space to reflect, grow, and create positive change in your life.
Our first time in Kenya, and only our fourth country weve traveled to in all of Africa. Whats unique about Kenya, and what should we expect? Lets find out our first impressions of Nairobi, Kenya!
What we noticed is Nairobi is quite developed. Its a huge city population wise, that has many tall buildings and pretty terrible traffic. Aside from that, people were friendly to us, we found some nearly inedible food, and we had AN AMAZING TIME at Nairobi National Park, where our land rover was surrounded by giraffe, zebras, rhinos and more.
On our trip, nothing really felt average. Everything was either tremendously good, or tremendously bad. It was a series of highs and lows, but in the end, Kenya stole our heart. We really enjoyed our time there.
One highlight was a local school teacher we met in the park. He had all his students with him, and he explained a bit of Kenyas history, and ingratied himself to us quite nicely. We can tell he is a good teacher, who might deserve the title Kenyas Friendliest Man. We really enjoyed meetin him and his students.
Thanks for watching!

![SHOCKED at Saudi Arabian supermarket! ðžðŠ
Grocery shopping in Saudi Arabia.
On this episode, we went to one of the most popular supermarket in Jeddah Hyper Panda.
We were curious about a number of things:
Are grocery prices cheap in Saudi Arabia?
Is Saudi Arabia expensive?
What are some unique things found in Saudi supermarket?
What is the cost of living in Saudi Arabia?
Is it cheap to travel Saudi Arabia?
For these answers and more:
Check out our full supermarket tour in Saudi Arabia!
The key one for us is the cost of living. People always ask us: is [insert country] affordable? But, it depends on the wages people earn. We can see the prices of the items in the stores, but even if we google what minimum wage is, we arent sure how many people are earning minimum wage and which items are considered staples, whereas which ones are luxurys.
Now, in a general sense, countries that have very low prices are typically still developing, whereas countries that have expensive prices are fully developed. This is why Saudi Arabia stands out to us.
Weve been hanging around Jeddah for 3 or 4 days now, and we can see this is not a poor country. The roads are all 3 lanes wide, the cars are all brand new, there isnt much garbage, pollution, etc. The people seem to be living well. And yet: 1 USD LOAF OF BREAD! Whaaaat! 4 USD for 30 EGGS!??!?! And the wildest one of all: 30 CENTS FOR A 6 PACK OF PITA?????????
In Canada, 30 cents is a uselss amount of money. Maybe you could buy one piece of gum. Maybe.
And so we consider Saudi Arabia as one of the most affordable countries weve been to if you buy local items. It seems there is a big divide between local items and imported ones. Ivana almost fell off her chair when she saw a 10 pack of IndoMie for nearly 20 bucks. That stuff should be a buck a pack, max!!
Its unclear to us how much of this affordability is from all the oil money. Weve learned that around 75% of the governments revenue comes from oil, and there is no income tax. Having the government collect such large amounts of money, without having to take it from the citizens, is like a cheat code!! Its interesting to imagine what Saudi Arabia would look like without the oil money.... actually I have no idea where to even start with that one.
In the end, weve been impressed with how things look in Saudi Arabia.
More to come!!
TIMESTAMPS:
00:00 - Saudi Arabia grows fruits and veggies? Im impressed
2:04 - Middle Eastern food: nuts, spices, dried fruits
3:01 - UNEXPECTED: 1 kg of butter for a few bucks??
3:46 - 1 USD loaf of bread & endless amount of wraps
5:10 - YUMMY: Mini borek lasted 1 day in our house
6:00 - Big liver & small chickens: Meat prices and availability
7:01 - Is Saudi Arabia a coffee or tea country? Cardamom, either way
7:46 - Saudi Arabia is NOT a mustard country
8:18 - Worlds most expensive IndoMie & other instant noodle prices
9:13 - UNEXPECTED: 0.0% alcohol beer available everywhere
10:23 - SOMETHING NEW: Zamzam water (cheaper than Cristiano Ronaldo water)
11:28 - IMPRESSIVE: 30 CENTS FOR 6 PITA WRAPS?!?!?!
11:54 - Lays chips prices and flavors
12:49 - SOMETHING NEW: Kraft dinner cheese for breakfast?!?!
14:58 - SOMETHIGN NEW: Tahina & Kabsa
16:22 - Saudi Arabia is AFFORDABLE! (If you buy local)
