  • night and it's like lounge wear your be this  is the honest interpretation of a normal date  

  • night for us we're pretty casual we're pretty  casual yeah so something interesting is that  

  • when we're at home when we're not traveling we  actually don't eat out that often we don't even  

  • go out once a week maybe once a month maybe maybe  maybe we normally cook at home yeah and so this is  

  • a real treat we're gonna just enjoy this it's  honestly spontaneous this wasn't even planned  

  • which makes it even more fun and uh  yeah it's friday night it's raining it's  

  • cold let's get some sushi and let's enjoy  let's go to the mall go pick up our order

  • hello it is officially winter oh my gosh  yeah it is so cold out look at what we got

  • it's huge guys it's like uh it feels like  

  • i don't know like it feels like twice the weight  of a pizza i thought you were gonna save a baby  

  • um but yeah i find it so weird that the mall is  super busy it's on a friday it is a friday it is a  

  • friday night but there's also a pandemic going on  but like it was hard to find parking maybe maybe  

  • the restaurants have opened up again yeah i've  been paying attention and people are shopping  

  • people are shopping there's a movie theater so  and there's a grocery store so i guess that's part  

  • of it but yeah you get you get no sign of uh of  people staying in right now no i think people have  

  • had enough it's crazy busy on the on the road as  well it's the traffic is i've never seen it like  

  • this even in brampton i just feel like every year  gets a little busier here a little crazier yeah  

  • let's go home well sushi time huh the  sushi is here the spicy salmon cheers

  • we've already put a pretty good  dent in it huh while we're upstairs  

  • with the family so this is what's left over  i mean what was like 60 something pieces oh i  

  • i suggested 30 something and somebody  thought it wouldn't be enough  

  • you know it's always nice to have a snack at  night and also maybe breakfast and lunch tomorrow

  • hello so time for a little update on  what i've been up to while sam's not  

  • around because this is meant to be a surprise  um but basically this week we wanted to go away  

  • and film some more tiny houses for you guys we've  got this whole series going on on the channel  

  • where we stayed in like off-grid cabins and  suspended tents and container homes and we  

  • wanted to do more of those but when i went on  airbnb i realized a little problem now that winter  

  • is arriving most of these tiny homes don't have  heating like some of them have little wood stoves  

  • but basically a lot of the listings thathad saved to my favorites have been taken  

  • down because they're only available seasonally  from like late spring up until thanksgiving  

  • so that left me with a little bit of a conundrum  um yeah the selection was very meager and  

  • basically the ones that are available are quite  expensive like we're talking over 300 a night um  

  • so instead i started looking at downtown to see  if they had any hotel specials going on and they  

  • do so i found this really nice hotel in downtown  toronto canada that not only was having a sale but  

  • they're also offering free room upgrades um and it  was a really good price so i ended up booking that  

  • and that's what we're gonna be doing later on  this week i'm trying to keep this trip a surprise  

  • but honestly sam asks so many questions it's  impossible to keep any information away from him  

  • um he just gets too excited so yeah i'm trying  to keep this a surprise we are leaving soon  

  • we are leaving on wednesday yeah so maybe  we'll include a few clips of that in this  

  • week in the life video but yeah i'm  looking forward to a little getaway  

  • just doing something different you know  something outside of our daily routine and  

  • just taking a break from editing and being  in front of the computer for hours on end  

  • so that'll be fun i'm very excited maybe i'll show  you a picture of where we're going basically this  

  • is the hotel i booked this is one  king street west and it looks nice

  • so yeah i have booked this place for two nights  we're obviously gonna be filming some videos  

  • bringing you guys along and yeah i'm thinking of  turning it into like a little foodie adventure  

  • for sam because he had his birthday last month  and we didn't really go away to celebrate or do  

  • anything like that we just had a family lunch  with artisanal pizzas which was a lot of fun  

  • but i figured this could be like a belated  birthday celebration so yeah we'll be going for  

  • two nights i've been researching restaurants  i found pizzerias and i'm trying to think  

  • what else we could do while we're there i was  thinking of like a virtual reality session um  

  • and playing some games or axe throwing umdon't know if someone would actually be into that  

  • so i'm kind of researching a few different options  but either way it'll be a fun trip so see you soon  

  • so i'm trying not to give too much away  because i still have to film the bedroom tour  

  • the bedroom makeover this is the bedroom you're  welcome actually your bedroom like you were  

  • over it was all for you for me you were welcome  just kidding come come a bit closer so you're  

  • actually in the frame okay there we go there we  go cheers okay cheers drinking wine laptop is open  

  • and let's tell the people a few times a year i'd  say maybe three times a year or less yeah or less  

  • we binge watch certain shows as soon as they're  released november 15th the crown yeah season four  

  • one of them was the crown and i remember how i got  introduced to it you had already watched season  

  • one this is like three or four years ago and we  both got extremely sick when we were visiting  

  • wales do you remember in cardiff yes like it was  like like we were we were not just it wasn't just  

  • like a little bit of the flu like we had sore  throats we had like fevers we had headaches  

  • like we could barely get out of bed i believe  we booked an airbnb for maybe a week and we just  

  • stayed indoors and watched netflix non-stop we  maybe filmed two days two and a half days but but  

  • the amazing thing about this place was they hadhome theater yes like they had a projection they  

  • had a projection screen they also had a like an  amazing sound system and we were just like i don't  

  • know if out of a score of 100 i'd say our energy  levels like 15 to 20. and so i i ended up watching  

  • all of uh season one with you yeah and then we  started watching something uh related to it was  

  • world war ii but it was like um in color no no no  no it was the like um it was a show about ladies  

  • um okay yeah is that cold again i don't know  i i forget the name of that show but the point  

  • is we really got hooked on the crown and since  then every year when they release the new season  

  • we just dedicate a day sometimes we need two days  to watch every single episode and it's all we can  

  • think about that's right so i remember season two  we ended up watching here while we were at home in  

  • between trips in toronto canada yeah season three  was last year on our second trip to argentina  

  • we were in yes we were in baraloche in a beautiful  log cabin we still haven't uh released that series  

  • yet those are coming so those are coming yeah  that's uh so a bit of a sneak preview and then um  

  • we just we're binge watching season four now  yeah so i mean my goodness it just it almost  

  • makes me feel a little bit old we're already  about season four that means we've been watching  

  • four years the next season isn't coming out next  year they're gonna make us gonna be 20. 2022 in  

  • case you're wondering oh my gosh but anyways  yeah we we load it up we binge there's 10  

  • episodes this season um probably approximately  45 minutes to an hour per episode so we've got  

  • about eight to ten hours of uh fun ahead of us  cheers to that so guys let us know if there is a  

  • show out there on netflix or amazon prime that you  love to binge yes we might need some inspiration  

  • we don't want to know what shows you just  watch we want to know which ones you've been  

  • and if you don't binge please don't judge us  too harshly because we do we do we do [ __ ]

  • so audrey how do you feel being back in niagara  falls good it's nice to be visiting again i think  

  • the last time i was here was maybe 10 years ago  wow do you remember who you came with i think  

  • with my sister and some friends oh cool summertime  in the summer so you've never been here when it's  

  • been the cold huh yeah bundled up all bundled  up yeah you're dressed the warmest yes your  

  • dad has no hat you've got like a winter hat on and  you've got your gloves it's like five degrees okay

  • so

  • then of course you've got the vineyards  nearby you've got niagara on the lake  

  • and so yeah we're gonna just basically  walk around a little bit more and then  

  • what we're hoping to do in the afternoon is visit  a vineyard that's the plan do a little bit of a

  • tasting

  • so yeah we were saying this is one of the top  10 wines we've had not just this year but ever  

  • i think it's the best canadian wine i've  ever had yeah yeah yeah actually absolutely  

  • good quality wine yeah on the drive-in didn't  it say this has been voted the number one  

  • small vineyard yeah i don't doubt it i don't doubt  it it's that good have a look it's that good yeah  

  • hello hello hello hanging out at my new office  thank you audrey we came over to your new office  

  • office we came over to your new office andthought it might be fun for you to tell people  

  • what you've been working on what you've been  editing so for the last like almost two months  

  • and i had already been working on this for months  prior to this basically uh at the end of last  

  • year we went back to argentina for a second round  not just argentina uruguay too and chilly chilly  

  • that's right so we started off um with your dad we  arrived in buenos aires and then we went back to  

  • the cordoba area and then we started heading north  for the first time so we went to the province of  

  • tukuman and then we headed up further north to  salta which is an amazing area and then we went  

  • further north it's even more rugged to huhui and  that was the end of our northern exploration then  

  • we came back to buenos aires for a night and we  spent uh slightly over a week in uruguay we went  

  • to colonia and we also went to montevideo and we  did a lot of foodie things yeah which was tons  

  • of fun and then we said goodbye to your dad and we  headed back to northern patagonia where we spent a  

  • little bit of time in baraloche kind of catching  up on work binging on the crown season three  

  • we did a bit of filming as well and then we went  and visited one of our best friends in argentina  

  • valentin and elbozone yeah that was a really fun  day so much fun hardly any filming but going out  

  • every single night and coming in at like one or  two in the morning yeah that was so much fun and  

  • then we went all because the last time we went to  patagonia we didn't make it to the far south which  

  • is some say the most interesting part and we did  get to go to the far south this time how far south  

  • samuel well to the end of the world to ushuaia the  world's most southern no the world's southernmost  

  • city i believe is how it's described and i mean  that's the gateway for boating expeditions to  

  • antarctica so yeah we're talking really far  south and we didn't make it to antarctica but  

  • in order to cross to tierra del fuego which is the  southernmost province in argentina you have to go  

  • through chile because the province is an island  basically we also some other highlights in in the  

  • far south is we went to el chalten and el calafate  in el calafate you see the the most impressive  

  • glaciers oh just unbelievable and then we did the  world-class hiking in el chalten which if you're  

  • familiar with the brand patagonia it's the the  basically the logo the mountain we hiked the logo  

  • we hiked the logo there you go yeah and then  we crossed over to the chilean side and we did  

  • another spectacular hiking destination yeah guys  we're so excited we're going to be releasing this  

  • series really soon for you um and it's going to be  the most breathtaking and scenic series we filmed  

  • anywhere in the world i can honestly say thatmean we've been to some beautiful places in canada  

  • and other parts of the world but just to have so  many different episodes where it's different to  

  • rain where it's a different different scenery  we've never done anything quite like this so  

  • we're really excited for this series to come out  and um yeah i'm i've basically done the the first  

  • cut of all the episodes so i'll be handing that  over to audrey and she'll be putting the final  

  • touches on it yeah that's coming soon yeah and  we're hoping um we're hoping to get it out more  

  • frequently than our first year series in argentina  we're going to be releasing i don't know hopefully  

  • several episodes per week right yes that's  the goal is that is that the goal boss yes  

  • so anyways yeah that's what i've been working  on um here at my office and we're really excited  

  • to be getting that out soon so i hope you guys  are ready for another round of argentina coming  

  • up soon okay so this evening we're going  to be trimming sam's beard riveting stuff  

  • this is what youtube has come to but yeah when sam  found out we're going to toronto canada instead  

  • of into the woods into the wilderness ontiny house escape he realized maybe he wants  

  • to prim and cough prim primp and quaff what's  the expression there primp and quaff primico  

  • so we're gonna give his beard a little trim  because it has started to puff out so maybe we can  

  • have a little chat with him here on his barber's  chair slash computer chair um so yeah you're gonna  

  • find out in the next video that his surprise  trip isn't so much of a surprise because sam  

  • is just not good at handling surprises and being  patient and he just has to ask a million questions

  • until you break down and you're like enough  this is what we're doing now stop asking me  

  • so all that being said i invite you to come  on over to the chair and bring the trimmer  

  • oh yeah where's the trimmer  here are the goodies okay  

  • and by the way i normally do shave my own beard  this is just something fun for camera the audio

  • it's fun well i ended up getting this this this  this hair and beard kit because it's kind of  

  • like cleaning yeah so i don't have to go for the  complete shave yeah hopefully there's enough power  

  • oh you haven't charged it uh we'll see did i use  this no i used your dads did you use my dad's this  

  • is a new one no i have longer and shorter longer  okay you have nine let's try six six is short  

  • no three is short here we go are you ready i'm  ready i don't think i've used this one oh oh okay  

  • hey before you like take half my face off you  see how that works yeah it just moves it up and  

  • down okay you you pick the setting it has little  numbers so it's just basically it rolls like that  

  • oh my gosh that sounds scary but you know why  it's because it wasn't fully on let's see see  

  • okay okay i forgot do i go down dogo off oh hey like this okay okay okay  

  • try not to take my face off okay that'd  be nice anything you want to tell us about  

  • as i play barber here um well yeah it's beenlong time since we've gone to toronto so toronto  

  • as you say um it's literally been ages i think the  year we ended up going the most was when we went  

  • and did the christmas market you remember that  year yeah what year was that were we in university  

  • it was either that year or the year before  and we ended up going to the christmas market  

  • and then also the year we ended  up getting married we went in  

  • to meet family and then we also filmed the city  guide i think that year so that may have all been  

  • within like 10 months we may have gone into  the city like four or five times in the last  

  • four in the last three or four years i i haven't  been into toronto at all except you know to the  

  • airport that's not actually the city probably  closer to brampton yeah than actual downtown  

  • toronto canada why'd you enjoy this so much ohwas saying earlier it's kind of like cleaning you  

  • know like how you see something become tidy when  it was like all messy and disorganized are you  

  • are you insulting my former beard well it's just  it was getting very big my wolverine beard yeah  

  • what do you guys think do you prefer the cleaned  up beard or did you like the wolverine one huh  

  • i'm not sure everyone agrees with you audrey some  people might have well i i like the beard i do  

  • but you've had it for a while and it was getting  really messed up to be honest it's kind of nice to  

  • shave it off every once in a while although  i think when we go back and do a cabin stay  

  • i'm gonna make it nice and long done how's that  that looks i haven't actually seen myself yet but  

  • it feels good let's go have a look  oh wow it's definitely shorter

  • so today is thursday and this is a little  behind the scenes of the vlog in canada that  

  • we are shooting here in toronto we got  here yesterday wednesday but it's been nice  

  • you know to get away from the regular routine and  just do something a little different be out here  

  • exploring the city hey sam hi her hey this is  the perfect day in toronto video we're working  

  • and we're having a fantastic day we're  exploring an island we've never been to  

  • we had the most amazing views of downtown  toronto and yet we feel like we're out in  

  • the middle of nowhere yeah and the weather  is cooperating today it's so much warmer so  

  • much warmer yeah we've had some good food since  we've been in toronto and fun to continue that

  • so would you say this is a weekly bi-weekly  monthly shop how often are we going to lcbo well  

  • basically what's going on these days is uh  your dad and i are on a little bit of a diet  

  • and one of our tiny indulgences is that we're  giving ourselves a little bit of table wine  

  • so when this gato negro runs out that's usually  when i go to the lcbo i usually get three or four  

  • of these and they usually last for the month  we just have like a tiny little glass at night  

  • so we had one dry uh-huh uh yeah  we had to restock i just got back  

  • and i should explain for people who don't know  what table wine or vino de mesa what we call in  

  • argentina it's basically kind of like a cheaper  wine that you'd have with your everyday meal like  

  • it's nothing super fancy exactly so this wine islittle bit pricey in canada compared to europe and  

  • south america so this bottle here 1.5 liters which  is the equivalent of two normal bottles of wine  

  • is 14.95 and normally for one bottle of i don't  know like mid-range wine in canada you would pay  

  • that amount so this is like half that price yeah  it's just one of those twist tops we usually get  

  • in the low sometimes cabernet sauvignon but this  uh yeah that's what i ended up getting so this  

  • is the table wine but the exciting stuff is in  the green bags here hey guys i'm exhausted that's  

  • a very long walk probably walk  like 30 or 40 minutes each way  

  • and carrying all this back now it's really hard  to find wine from uruguay and in fact in ontario  

  • they're out but look i got the the arizona this  is the one we had last summer yeah but this one's  

  • a reserve this is a 10 reservoir oh yeah that's  awesome that's the brand we found in new brunswick  

  • when we did a road trip last summer we picked that  one up in um edmondson yeah yeah it's the most  

  • random place to find a bottle of wine from uruguay  now this one i think he'll like audrey look how  

  • cute that is little bowtie what's this this one's  from chile okay i ended up getting it well there's  

  • a couple reasons i mean i have to admit that was  pretty cute but the price was good 11 bucks i  

  • think it's 11.99 and it's a pinot noir it's a kind  of a grape variety that we don't normally drink  

  • from chile we usually have cabernet sauvignon  merlot or is it carbonary yeah we usually  

  • have that and i found two wines from portugal  because we're thinking of doing a portuguese  

  • food videos oh a bacalao video yeah so we have  domino from duaro todo along the donor river  

  • river and then we also have um and that isthat one's not a reserve and then we have babu  

  • babu which is a reserve where's that one from  it's also from portugal oh cool oh it's a 2016  

  • nice a bit of a vintage so yeah two table ones  and actually you have a bit of the table wine  

  • sometimes too i do yeah dinner time we drink  some red our tiny indulgence is that we take a  

  • little micro square of dark chocolate and we gethalf of a cup of red wine well thanks for bringing  

  • the wine for us yeah and we are restocking our  collection yeah our collection is looking pretty  

  • mighty fine and uh let's keep it that way okay  so we've been doing a bit of a fun family project  

  • this year it's mainly my dad and i who are doing  this but basically we've started a collection of  

  • wine labels because we really enjoy our wine  i feel like sam and i have finally developed a  

  • taste for wine it took us a while but you know  we're there after a few trips to south africa  

  • and then argentina chile we've had some really  good wines so yeah this is kind of like the new  

  • little hobby that we've got going on so whenever  we finish a bottle of wine we set it aside and  

  • then when we have a group of like 10 to 15 we  put them in the oven and we remove the labels  

  • and i'm just gonna show you a few of the bottles  that we've consumed over the past year maybe it's  

  • been two years now because this album is looking  pretty full um but yeah that's something we've  

  • been doing behind the scenes for fun so here  are some that we had this past winter this was  

  • a really nice wine from australia 19 crimes and  this one was recommended by my uncle who's also  

  • a big wine lover he lives in peru and he really  likes this argentine wine amigo or the enemy

  • these two spanish ones are from  um a video that we filmed a while  

  • back where we made paeda a spanish dish and yeah

  • that was our week in the life vlog from  canada we had some fun mini getaways to  

  • nearby destinations but we also spent plenty of  time hanging out at home in our pajamas because  

  • balance let us know if you guys enjoyed  this format and if you'd like to see
