there you go something well gracias it's called tropical sunshine no tequila sunrise
-
so i'm trying a tequila sunrise it has of course tequila grenadine and orange juice
-
nice and sweet you can have two or three of these and then just pass out for the day
-
okay who made the drinks you did huh yeah the bar man next to the bar man daniel used to be
-
a bartender when he was 18 years old and i was living in spain waiting for my canadian
-
visa as immigrant to come over here and i was working for a chain of uh discotheques
-
the most famous in spain and maybe around the world it is called pacha i was working in the
-
one they had in a place called leore de mar and after that they wanted me to go to work in ibiza
-
that was the flagship of all the discotheque empire of this uh of this company right
-
but then my visa came to come to canada as a landed immigrant and i just had to
-
leave spain and the beaches and the disco and the nightlife and my bartending skills
-
this is the tequila sunrise and the name is because you see that it looks like the sunrise
-
you know in the morning when the sun is coming up and in some areas is darker red and some other
-
areas it's a little bit yellowy kind of orangey so that's that's the name of the dream salute
-
okay well welcome to the office this is where i have been spending a lot of time lately sam and i
-
have separate offices in separate rooms because otherwise there's just too much chatter and we
-
don't get a lot of editing done so yeah this is where i'm working i've set up a little office
-
in the bedroom and really we've been trying to balance travel and work with the ongoing lockdowns
-
and stay at home orders so as you may have seen on the channel we went on some really fun
-
local getaways we filmed some tiny houses recently that was all while we could travel and now that we
-
can't we're at home just editing our footage and we've got plenty to keep us busy and speaking of
-
work i wanted to thank this week's video sponsor which is soundcore by anchor we've been working
-
with them for a few months now testing out different products and they recently sent
-
me something new these are their life q35 noise canceling headphones which just came out on the
-
market and yeah i've been using them for my video editing so first of all i wanted to talk about
-
the memory foam which makes these headphones super comfortable to wear you have the memory foam here
-
on the ear cup and also on top on the headband so these headphones offer 60 hours of play time when
-
you use them in standard mode or 40 hours of play time when you use them in active noise cancelling
-
mode they also have ldap coding technology from sony that enables the transmission of high
-
resolution audio even over bluetooth connection so that means that you get cd quality sound yet
-
you're only paying a third of the price of many of their competitors the headphones also have wearing
-
detection so that means once you remove them they will actually pause and when you put them
-
back on it'll resume playback so a big thank you to soundcore for sponsoring this video
-
and now let's get back to the editing hello am i on the confessional chair yeah tell us what's
-
up actually i'm you're gonna be cutting my hair yes we've developed a bit of a new routine partly
-
out of necessity to be honest the barber shops were closed for a long time and my hair grows
-
super quickly but yeah i've been letting you cut my hair now for the last five or six times
-
you have been getting better for sure why thank you you're gonna show us uh your skills my skills
-
your skills are you feeling confident in my skill well you haven't cut me yet so so far so good and
-
we've been doing this so often that actually we even ordered a i ordered a cape so we don't get
-
my hair my fur all over the place so put it on and i guess we'll get started huh good pattern
-
peacock hair wolverine hair like up to here but this is the before i've got a oh just my cape came
-
off i've got a decent sized beard and my hair it's getting pretty long so i want a short summer cut
-
winter is ending we're officially in spring and summer's just around the corner so for
-
me it's short in the summer wolveriney in the winter i'm gonna miss your curls
-
yeah well my hair goes back fast so you know if we don't cut it for another six
-
to eight weeks it'll be right back where it is right now oh my gosh it could be my final view
-
i think this is honestly my fifth time
-
yeah doing this you know what you've you've done a good good enough job that
-
the last time we were visiting my parents in fredericton my dad requested a haircut from you
-
and my mom wasn't impressed by the request she's like she thought it was a bit shameless but you
-
did it anyways i'm the jeffrey family here you're the jeffrey barber the jeffrey manning
-
no you know you've actually gotten faster at doing it too well thank you remember the first time it
-
took like a half an hour i was like oh my gosh i almost wanted i almost wanted to do it myself
-
at that point the first time your head got shaved because he was not patient so what do you think is
-
the key to giving a decent haircut for a guy using using the youtube tutorials okay that's the trick
-
you learned blending recently right yeah that was the skill this is so nice i i kind of prefer not
-
to have a wet shave like it's just kind of nice to have a little bit of hair still left also i wish
-
i could get a haircut right now i've been waiting for a haircut like my last one was 10 months ago
-
and yeah but at least you have straight hair your hair doesn't grow like a mushroom cloud
-
i know but it's getting like scraggly is that a word yes well that's what i look like
-
it's what i need okay head straight okay so i can work with the curvature that was one of the
-
tips i learned from youtube yeah you guys you can learn so much from youtube seriously
-
you can basically learn how to do anything on youtube there are experts for everything
-
on youtube fixing your car do it yourself a cloth toy repairs yeah yeah there's so many times where
-
we've been traveling and we didn't even know how to use a certain type of laundry machine
-
because of the language and we like google how to use the laundry machine in japan
-
we're looking up like you remember that yeah yeah
-
hi brand new man over here brand new man i like it nice and short you did a good job did i i think so
-
i mean i gotta you left a bit more of the mustache and the beard but i think you did that purposely
-
he said let's see the other side okay blend okay yeah i think you did a pretty good job
-
i mean there's a lot of hair on the ground so something was accomplished for here
-
i'm happy with it okay let me flip the screen for you wanna fix your hair a bit shake it up
-
how does that look this is a quarantine haircut guys okay
-
i'm trying my best over here we have any social occasions to go to so
-
all righty guys we are taking you out today on a little local adventure so that means we're
-
basically back to our favorite restaurant here right yes it's fall fall one two three
-
authentic vietnamese restaurant yeah boy is it ever good it really is and you know what
-
we've really been trying to support our local restaurants during this pandemic yeah and this
-
place and then the sushi place tokumaki sushi are probably like the ones we frequent the most
-
yeah it's a top two we also grabbed sushi from the grocery store oceans that you know from
-
the supermarket yeah they've got good stuff so basically when we when we eat out we tend to have
-
asian food because we have a lot of we have a lot of barbecue at home we have peruvian and argentine
-
food we have pastas sometimes i'll go go for a pizza but what we're usually really craving is
-
asian yes yeah vietnamese korean japanese yeah so we've already placed our order they told us it's
-
going to be about 15 minutes so we're just waiting in the car and then we'll go pick it up so i think
-
we're just gonna eat it here in the car and then we're gonna take you on a little hiking adventure
-
all right guys the food is here i'm gonna tie my hair back because this is a whole process gosh
-
what an exciting moment eating noodles in a car a treat what a treat ooh so first the spring rolls
-
oh i almost dropped it oh my gosh that was a close call fried spring rolls yeah these are
-
chicken ones these are the chicken ones oh i will try one of those those are really really good all
-
right let's dig in and we got chopsticks this time yeah plastic forks which is nice although yeah
-
this is finger food these are like freshly fried they are hot hot crispy i got a delicious pad thai
-
with shrimp it looks amazing i'll show you what i got what i have oh wow mine's heavy
-
beef noodles so while we eat in the car i thought a fun topic for discussion could be our potential
-
summer travels in ontario yeah i feel like we've gone through a lot of scenarios first we thought
-
we might be able to do stuff across canada yeah the third wave has hit canada pretty hard though
-
unfortunately especially here in ontario so we may just be looking at doing province wide travel in a
-
month or two i mean the vaccine is being rolled out really fast last time i checked we were
-
getting closer to 30 for people who had the first first dose the first job but okay says i've gone
-
down a bit lately yeah ontario is looking more like like the place we're gonna be exclusively
-
focusing in on yeah and we've got like four different trip ideas that we've been toying around
-
with so we're going to tell them to you and maybe you guys can tell us what you're most interested
-
in seeing on the channel yeah how about that cool so one that we've been talking about since last
-
summer is actually manitoulin island and that's the largest island on a freshwater lake yeah and
-
there's like a lake within the island yeah there's lakes on this island it's so big yeah so we'd love
-
to drive up there i think it's maybe like four and a half hours from where we live the ferry crossing
-
it's not that long of a ferry though is it um no and it's pet friendly i think so yes i think
-
it might be allowed to come yeah and in the summer time they have powwows so maybe we
-
might be able to time that accordingly so that's option one yeah option one and then you had also
-
been talking about heading up north we can go as far as hudson bay there's an adventure train route
-
oh those are two different things okay all right guys if we went to hudson bay we'd probably drive
-
up there that'd be quite difficult or there's a bus yeah a very long bus like a full day on a bus
-
but once you get there they have nature lodges and you can experience wildlife so that would
-
be cool making it up to hudson bay yeah another option is the via rail adventure route that they
-
have in ontario yes and that runs from sudbury to white river and it's meant to be a really
-
scenic journey and again just lots of wildlife so that's option three and last but not least
-
you guys we've talked about maybe even renting a camper van for a while yeah like an hour road an
-
rv yeah yeah my dad feels confident driving one of those so we thought we could get one
-
for a couple of days maybe like three four days and go to algonquin park yeah there's
-
also the option of doing cabin stays more tiny houses and if things really improved a lot
-
we can consider doing some city things like maybe going to kingston or ottawa going back into
-
toronto to film a bit more so we're really hopeful that that things are going to be you know kind of
-
improving the next couple months especially with the vaccine really being rolled out and whatnot
-
in case it's starting to go down again so yeah let us know your thoughts we're really curious
-
to hear them um we're definitely looking at options that keep us close to nature exactly so
-
mostly just things out in wilderness yeah so but we are excited about the prospect of these like
-
they all sound great to me to be honest i'll be happy to get away for a little bit so we'll see
-
uh we're gonna keep eating here and you guys write to us in the comments let us know your
-
thoughts and ideas totally delicious by the way if you're in brampton you got to stop here
-
and we saw they were doing a good business like three or four other people to take us
-
we're eating before lunch this is like 11 something in the morning
-
don't mind the hat here guys oh let's not lose the camera there we are so yeah we went for a little
-
post lunch hike we're at why did i need that pulse lunch hike i ended up having half of your pad thai
-
sam also ended up spilling all the sauce from his noodles down my pant leg actually that's not true
-
you you knocked it down you knocked it down okay i put it in an inappropriate place in a bad place
-
you knocked it down so shared responsibility here all right fine we came to a place called heartlake
-
conservation area and you can do a lot here like they have hiking trails you can rent boating
-
equipment zip lining zip lining i came ziplining here a few years ago yeah with your friend alyssa
-
yeah yeah yeah it was scary but i didn't i was in fredericton at the time i saw that you guys
-
you guys put across the whole lake yeah that's pretty nuts oh it's windy i hope you can hear us
-
that's springtime in canada for you guys it gets really windy here but yeah so a nice place in the
-
summertime for sure right now the only thing that are open are the hiking trails um so they're not
-
actually charging admission fee everyone's just parking out in front and you walk in you can go
-
hiking and some fresh air yeah considering that the park isn't technically open it's in great
-
condition though the trails are in fantastic shape it's dry yeah it's very easy uh there are
-
other people here we're not the only not the only ones lots of people walking their dogs a few other
-
people just going for random hikes you could see how popular this place would be in the summer and
-
early and early fall too with the fall colors yeah so i'm glad we came out here just on the
-
outskirts of brampton like basically the border with caledon is that right yeah so i mean it's a
-
different world out here we're again escaping the the crazy urban environment out of nature
-
it's always a win in my books so yeah we hope you guys enjoyed the little hike now we're gonna head
-
back home and maybe we'll do a little pampering and a movie night this evening that sounds fun
-
okay so for this week's week in the life i thought we could also go through some of
-
the parcels i have received because online shopping has really become
-
a thing during this pandemic particularly for clothes so spring is here summer's coming
-
i needed to order some appropriate summer gear so i'm gonna show you what i got
-
somebody already opened the package somebody thought this was for him samuel
-
so i've just had a peak but i haven't actually tried anything on so why don't we go through this
-
together let's see what arrived i ordered this about a week ago so i've almost forgotten what i
-
got let's start with the shirts i got a turtleneck in mustard shall we call it so technically this
-
one's not for summer but i've realized i really like turtlenecks like i'm always cold and this
-
is a nice transition piece for spring so i got this one in mustard yellow then i got this little
-
mock neck kind of crop top in like a burnt orange i got one kind of like silky
-
dressier shirt in a charcoal gray i got some pants these feel super breezy half linen half rayon very
-
flowy nice for summer we'll see how those fit this is my first time buying pants online i'm
-
i'm kind of nervous you know shopping for pants is hard enough when you can try them on in the store
-
and where you're just kind of like guessing at measurements and sizes oh okay these are
-
supposed to be some dressy navy blue oh my gosh and this is not my size so i don't know what's
-
happened here and then i also got this pair these look nice they look kind of like a dusty pink
-
again they they seem a little bit large so we'll see how they fit that is my spring summer shop i
-
figured i'd place a small order see how things fit try them on try and figure out my size at
-
the store and if i like certain items okay then i can order them in different colors
-
um does anyone else do that like when you find one item you like you just get it in different colors
-
because you're like okay this will work 100 okay here we go shirt number one the turtleneck this
-
is a bit of a weird angle my goodness i like the color is it my size it's fitted this is
-
a small but i do like the color and i feel like it kind of works you know i do like turtlenecks
-
i believe this is gonna be a keeper shall we vote yes this one's a yes i think it's a yes
-
okay now two pi
