We're back!! Say hello to our new Australia home!
Not to brag, but when our friends came and stayed the night, we gave them wet towels.
Oh no.
We're back.
Oh.
I'm so sorry.
For leaving me hanging and for leaving you hanging.
Oh, that was good.
I was going to say, I'm sorry that you have to watch this again.
Oh.
That you have to look at this face again.
You had a month of being like, just being free.
No, terrible jokes from Gabe.
Yes, exactly.
We are back.
We did take what?
A shower.
A long break.
Oh my gosh.
I'm over it.
All right.
We're officially back this time.
For real.
We're back.
Sorry.
Just.
Oh, sorry.
You cracked my knuckle.
Ow.
Another year.
Another day.
Another vlog.
Vlog.
Another, another apartment.
We did a bit of an update on my channel.
We filmed it a while ago and it was, well, it was a couple of weeks ago and it was like
a big kind of just sit down update on why we took a break, why we like went filming
a lot and why we now have an apartment in Australia.
So should we do a quick cliff notes version of it?
Sure.
Go ahead.
As things start to ease up and we are able to travel to Australia more, we thought it
would be beneficial for us in efforts of achieving the dream of splitting as much time as possible,
which we have wanted since we got married.
Yes.
To get an apartment here.
We just decided, you know what, let's rent one.
And the math kind of checks out.
It's pretty similar to like if we just Airbnb'd all the time when we were back versus just
renting a place and we decided to pull the plug and do it and we can keep things here
now.
You don't have to like pack huge suitcases and lug around like months worth of clothes
and stuff like that.
And it just, it actually feels homey.
Having our own place.
It's really nice.
It's been so much fun and so nice.
With that said, we need to do a bit of apartment shopping, so we're going to go do that.
So we have certain, you know, necessities like the bed.
When we go back, we'll show you what it looks like.
We'll give a little tour.
But we do need to go get...
There's a few things on the list that we're missing.
Coffee table, bedside table, another bedside table, another bedside table.
Just like random.
Yeah.
You know?
We've been trying to take it slow because it's expensive.
We're going to burp and then going to go get some...
We're going to Target, but the Australian version.
The Australian Target.
Which is different.
Kind of in a bad way, to be honest.
Well yeah.
I'm not saying that it's bad here.
No, it's actually got really cute stuff.
Yeah, I'm just saying American Target is on crack.
I totally agree.
It's insane.
We all love an American Target.
To Target.
To Target!
Yoohoo!
This fits really well in our car.
Bedside table number one of three.
This is Target Australia.
Some cute stuff.
Some more cute stuff over here.
More cute stuff.
Oh my gosh.
You scared me.
I'm like running around trying to make a joke.
I was ready for you to go like this, point it that way, and have me there, and then go
like down an aisle, and then I would just pop out.
But I will.
I did...
Oh my gosh.
Jess hates when anyone watches this vlog.
She literally saw someone and she's like...
She made me run.
I did scary though.
So that's a win.
Did you?
Yeah.
I literally...
Sorry, I didn't remember.
Oh my gosh.
You scared me.
Look at this cute lamp.
Yes.
We'll go in there like that.
No.
Perfect.
Look at those guns.
What guns?
What do you say?
This is the bedside table that we are going with.
And there's two left.
This one's for our room.
It's meant to be.
Okay, this is really good.
I think we're doing good.
Really good.
Bedside tables and lamp checked off.
I like lamp.
I like bedside tables.
Coffee table, I don't know.
I don't really know.
I do need a toothbrush.
My toothbrush carved it.
So there you go everybody.
This is like back tickles.
Yeah, but this is also like you get it and then it sits in the closet for five years
and then you do a garage sale and then it sells for like two cents.
I need something that will give me back tickles like without anyone having to move.
But they need to be in the closet.
So what I need to create is a blanket that goes over your back and then it just like,
you know, back tickles go to the back.
I'm going to invent that.
You know how much time that will save me?
Probably a lot of other partners too.
Well Gabe told me to stop filming.
What?
Oh my gosh.
That was from 2017 if people were around.
Oh, you thought.
You thought.
That's the old me.
Well, we have a successful little brute full of stuff.
Except not the toothbrushes.
No.
You're still going to have to deal with a cocked one doll.
I need to look that up.
She goes freaking cocked it.
I'm like what?
I'm guessing it means like carcass.
Cark.
It's dead.
Cocked.
We learn something new every day folks.
To die.
Look UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand.
Oh my gosh.
You're so cultured.
So it's just you mate.
A lot of people probably actually understood me like more than we thought.
Everyone from the UK, Ireland, Australia and New Zealand.
Yeah.
Oh gosh.
What?
What is oh gosh mean?
You wanted to film to show your shades.
That is not.
I put the shades on because I started driving and it's sunny outside and I have a freaking
kink in my neck and I can't turn.
It's so funny.
Look at how Gabe is turning.
I'm helping him out so it's all safe.
Don't worry.
But.
I can't turn my head to the right today.
I was doing pull ups this morning and I don't know what happened.
I was in the middle of such a good search.
I was in the middle of just like working out my biceps so, so hard and like my back
and stuff.
It happens when you get too jacked.
When you're too strong that your body can't handle it.
So then your spine decides to spasm one of the muscles next to it so you can't turn your
head to the right.
The reason why I've called for this meeting today is just because we've been going through
the word cocked a little bit.
If I say it in my proper native tongue, it's pronounced carked.
Carked it.
I carked it.
And it just sounds so wrong.
My toothbrush carked it.
Yeah, that doesn't sound nice.
It sounds so bad.
My toothbrush carked it.
Yeah, see it flows.
That's how you say it.
It flows off the tongue.
My toothbrush carked it.
Right?
It just like flows off the tongue.
What?
I just wanted to get a good view of the shades.
Jess is really in the mood for making fun of me today.
No I.
And I'm not.
I actually always make fun of those shades.
I would never pull them off.
I think Gabe can pull them off because, one, he's a very confident person.
So he can try out some new fashion-y stuff.
And just because of his confidence.
Like, he carries it well.
And he is getting funnier.
That felt like a really, really solid dig to my lack of sense of humor.
No, it was just a joke, see.
Perfect place to find our toothbrushes.
She thought that was funny.
Jess is somewhere over there and, uh, you know, it's just where I've ended up just laying
down.
Because shopping is the best.
Oh, there she is.
I'm happy with that if you are.
We really harass her.
Yeah.
It looks really nice.
And we need something small for our space.
Yeah, I'm not sure how we're going to brush our teeth with it, but I think it still works.
We got it.
Gabe just carried it down two flights of escalators.
We got a bargain.
Yeah, so they didn't have any more left in stock besides the one that was sitting on
the floor.
So he was like, I'll knock a hundred bucks off of it if you guys just want to take this
one.
So, we've done really well today.
Yay!
Here we are!
Oh, that's really cute.
I like that a lot.
And we got a bargain.
Freaking bargain, doll!
Guest bedroom bedside table.
Yay!
That's actually our lamp that I put in here in the meantime.
Oh, see, that looks good.
I think that fits really nicely.
Say hello everyone.
Welcome.
I'm so glad we all collectively came over to hang out.
Yeah, same.
Give us a tour, babe.
This is our little Aussie abode.
This is our music area.
Our music corner.
We have a front room here that we're not entirely sure how we're going to do things here, so
we put the music things here for now.
So far, just music.
This is a classic little ukulele back in there.
It's called George.
Oh, yes.
This is the main area where we've spent our whole time.
As you've already seen, the new table.
This couch is really comfy.
We did a really good job of getting bargains.
Basically everything we got was on sale.
Yeah.
Lovely dining area.
And then if you look here, our shoe area.
And we're clearly on top of things because that shoe rack has totally not been sitting
there next to the mirror that's not hung up yet for the past...
Week, probably.
Maybe a week and a half.
So just imagine this is what that's going to look like.
It's going to be really nice.
And then we want to put this up here.
Just use your imagination and think nice things.
Then we have a kitchen, which I just need to show you and finish the loop on that story.
Yeah, the best part of the kitchen.
Very exciting.
So now we can brush our teeth.
Your old toothbrush might be carved, but your teeth won't be.
No.
I don't know if you noticed.
We got like two for one.
Yeah.
What was up with that?
Sales.
I don't know what to tell you.
I know what to tell you.
Bargains.
We have a bathroom here that's literally empty.
Gabe works out in that room.
This is where we keep the vacuum and the pull-up bar that goes up there when I work out.
So this is the spare room.
We've already had...
Okay, sorry.
We've already had a couple of guests sleep over.
Yes, this is true.
It's been so fun.
That's the new lamp.
Different than the one we showed you in the last clip.
Target.
Beds from Ikea.
And what do we have to say about that?
Bargains.
We then have another bathroom.
Very nice.
We've got a little double sink action.
That's...
Yeah.
Because the guests need a good time.
Yes.
You know what I mean?
Exactly.
And not to brag, but when our friends came and stayed the night last time, we gave them
wet towels.
Nobody uses a dryer here.
We don't have a dryer, but we were hanging towels all day.
And they still didn't dry.
They just didn't dry.
Okay.
They went out in the sun in our garage.
The sun has not been around.
Dryers.
America is better.
That's not what I'm saying.
I'm saying...
He talks about this all the time.
You have an issue with Australians.
Most Australian homes also have a dryer and nobody uses them.
Unless it's raining.
It takes more time.
Your clothes end up drying like a piece of cardboard.
Towels dry now.
Okay.
They're wrinkly.
Come on.
Let's go.
Who would have thought that?
Australians, can you just tell me why you hang dry and you don't use a dryer?
I just...
I don't understand.
Sorry, he's so heated right now.
So this is our room.
Yes.
Our room.
You can see like my books, the lamps, they've been on the floor.
Yeah, don't show my side.
I have too many things over there.
Including his Lego.
Oh, including my...
We'll peek over the corner and look at that bomb Lego set in the corner there.
That I got him for Christmas.
Those are the things we just got.
We need to build the bedside tables.
And then we have our own bathroom.
So it's really lovely.
This is the current office before we move things into the room next to it.
I heard.
Get it?
Thanks, everybody.
Thank you.
It's okay.
Calm down.
I got it.
What was that?
Try the wheel.
What?
Shrek.
Nobody gets your references, babe.
Everyone but Gabriel gets my references.
Yes.
I'm a very happy little chappy and I never want to leave, so.
Yeah.
And tell them about this TV stand.
Oh my gosh, guys.
You will not believe the bargain.
Bargain.
This thing, we probably got, what, 80% off?
Probably 80, 85% off.
You can see down the very bottom, there's a little crack.
It's like right there.
And then it's blue paint a little bit.
Like the inside of one of the drawers, which makes no difference.
But it's perfect and it was on a crazy clearance.
And it just fits the TV, which is nice.
So this is where we'll be all the time.
On this couch that we got for?
Bargain.
All right, guys.
Love you.
Hope you enjoyed.
We're probably going to do a little catch up next week.
A little Q&A since we've been gone.
Since we've been gone.
That was so musical.
Yeah.
That was just.
For free.
That one, that was for free.
You keep that one.
Good to be back.
We love you guys.
We'll see you in our next video.
Peace out.
From Jess and Gabriel Conti.
