A large part of my childhood was filled with fear, anger, and sadness. I remember too many nights that I spent lying awake listening to screaming and yelling. On those nights that I didn't sleep I spent hours looking out of my window at the stars. Every night in the chaos of my house I found comfort and consistency in the beautiful night sky, and for as long as I can remember I have wanted to join the stars in the sky and see the world from their point of view. for most of my childhood I wanted to be an astronaut, but then at some point I decided to bring my dreams a little closer to earth. So now I am in the process of becoming a pilot so that I can travel the world and still spend as much time as I can up in the sky. But I still haven't given up on my dream to see the world from space so I am constantly saving money and doing research on how I can one day achieve my dreams, and reach the stars.

Congratulations Ammar on reaching your stars, you are an inspiration to all the dreamers out there.

I love how your nephew is just constantly in someone elses arms, it’s so sweet

I love how Yaseen went from security expert to security threat.

On a serious note. I love how you guys are so big and showcasing gratitude, vulnerability, struggles, humiliation, value family and friends. Guys showing kindness and emotion, its important what you do.

[craigbelcher]

A simple thought that i experienced watching both these videos. I am 69, feel 45 but life and time are real. I watched these with love for the life you have chosen (or has chosen you) and that you shared that with friends and family. The time with your father was precious, my father passed in 2006 and I miss him every day. I wish I had more time with him, but life doesn't always give you what you want. What i felt was sadness for the time I have left and that I have so much more I want to do. Life can be cruel. I am grateful for the things I do have. This was a wondaful emotional rollercoaster, thank you for the share and the reminders of the good in the world! Peace!

Becoming a wildlife ranger in Savannah; conserving and protecting the beautiful great giants.
Couldn't afford the internships nor the volunteer opportunities of working with the African wildlife after graduating. Couple years down the line, im currently living in Okinawa. About a month ago i had the opportunity to swim with humbpack whales and absolutely loved it. Talked to the captain of the boat and decided on that same day to work with them. Im currently working on getting my SCUBA licences. I will definitely make my dream of becoming a wildlife ranger in the Savannah come true but for now my dream is to explore the ocean and hopefully swim with more incredible marine wildlife, learning more about them to protect them and their world!!!

Honestly whenever i need motivation, inspiration or want to laugh, ill watch you guy's videos and all is set right. Its educational, heartwarming and lovely to see the genuine love you share and spread to eveyone!! Absolute legends!

Ammar, I grew up in Egypt for 15 years as the son of an expat family! Imagine my surprise when a video about Luxor pops up in my feed. I can't tell you how many times I visited Luxor as part of a class field trip or vacation just living in the country. Almost brought a tear to my eye, lol.

My dream honestly was just to be free. I never had a specific job or ambition I was aiming for, I simply wanted to be free and travel the world to continue the lifestyle that I had. I am slowly building towards that potentially as a digital nomad, but that is going to take a couple of years to achieve.

My Dad died last year from lung cancer and one of the dreams that he had for my family was to do one last trip to Egypt before he passed away. That was in September 2023 and I didn't even have a chance to say goodbye because he didn't want me to see in such a state.

My Mom and I have plans to bring some of his ashes to Egypt as a final resting place, but unfortunately that won't happen for a couple of years since we are still wrapping stuff up and taking care of life at the same time.

I'm healing from it now, but damn does it take a lot of time. Cheers!

Answering on behalf of my dad. I introduced him to your channel years ago, we now share the same love for you and everything you do. I always knew my dad has been interested and intrigued by Egypt but after watching these videos, it really became clear and he began to share more. He said he has been fascinated by Egypt since he was a little kid, not understanding how the beauty is even possible. He really shared many of the same thoughts and comments as the other guys in the video, just truly blown away by the beauty and stories. I would love to win this trip, not just for myself but more importantly, for him. This would be such an amazing thing to share together. He is the hardest working man I know and this trip would just mean more than you know. Thank you for the opportunity and I’m so so glad this trip happened for you.

I’m not kidding you when I say that my earliest dream as a child was to go to Egypt. I fell in love with the ancient world at a very early age. I was so obsessed. I would grab these big adult textbooks, watch countless of documentaries, trying to write hieroglyphs and studying the mythology in my free time. Even if I saw a series or special before, I’d just rewatch it again and again because I wanted everything to stay in my head. I still remember staying up late at night watching a special about Nefertiti and whether or not they found her. I’ve always wanted to go to Egypt to see everything myself and just fall in love again with the world that inspired me and lit a fire within me at an early age. So yeah that was my earliest dream.

[LewisHawkes]

This trip looks epic, ancient Egypt was always my favourite part in history class in school and it still fascinates me now. I was a very shy quiet child, always lost in a day dream. I think because i was a quiet kid I always dreamed of doing something BIG, something that would get people to notice me and something to make an impact on peoples lives. I know its pretty vague but even now i dream of doing something big to help out others ive done multiple long bike events for charity across Europe and held quizzes for charity during lockdown. I still find myself chasing the dream of that something big that inspires and makes an impact on those around me. Thanks for keeping me inspired

[saroltajakab-gyik]

These 2 videos from Egypt were the most wholesome videos to watch! It showed all the love and excitement that you guys put into them. I even showed them to my mom who does not speak English but loved to see all the emotions and the sites.
One of my childhood dreams was becoming a flight attendant because I wanted to travel the world. I was born and raised in Romania, a relatively small country with not that many opportunities. So experiencing different cultures and making friends abroad was always the most exciting thing to me. I've spent one year in the states, as an exchange student, and a semester in Ireland as an Erasmus student. Just really tried to grab every opportunity to travel whenever I could. I am currently doing my last semester in college in my home town.
I cannot image how life changing this trip would really be! I just wish for whoever wins that they take the most out of it and appreciate this huuuge gift from you guys!! 🤗

When I was a kid, I was confused and felt like not belonging anywhere.

I was a Korean Kid living in Mexico and I didn't feel Korean nor Mexican but sometimes I felt like I was both or even more. When I was 5 years old, I watched a movie called Jumanji (1995) and I loved that movie so much that I used to imagine and fantasize living and having an adventure like in movie! It became my dream since I was a kid, live a life like Jumanji.

Years have passed, I became an adult and I had a 9/5 job but it didn't fulfill me, so one day I decided to quit my job and follow my Jumanji Dreams. Since then I have never felt more happy in my life, but I'm still trying to live that Jumanji Dream.

Seek Disconfort have been a true inspiration for me, thank you guys for existing and keep SEEKING!!!

Since I was a kid, I've always had this dream... of going out into the world and helping people who really need it. Not just giving stuff, but really being there, you know? Listening to their stories, sharing their struggles. It's not about fame or anything like that. It's about understanding, compassion, and making a difference, no matter how small. It's like this calling inside me, pushing me to spread kindness and love wherever I go. And I can't shake it off, you know? But I am certain that one day, I'll be able to do something that meaningful and impactful, just like you guys are doing it so well! 🙏

[csaszara]

As a small kid, I remember visiting the Austrian Alps with my family. I vividly recall taking the cable car up the mountain, feeling the excitement build with each passing moment.

But what stands out the most in my memory is the sight of another peak looming above us, just out of reach. I was too young to tackle the hike to that higher peak, but oh, how badly I wanted to see the world from its summit. In that moment, my cildhood dream was born within me, a dream to do the seemingly impossible and then behold the beauty only a few get to lay eyes upon.

Watching this video, I am reminded of that childhood longing. It's amazing how a single experience can ignite a passion that lasts a lifetime. Thank you for taking me on this journey and reminding me of the beauty that inspired my very first dream.

[alakacelis]

I had a different answer in the other video. But since I had many dreams, I may add another one.
I vividly remember in a dance recital at my school, when a grandfather of another kid played the violin to accompany their dance. I had been sitted next to him, and since he started playing I couldn't stop watching, mesmerized of the movement of the arch and how the fingers moved with such grace. That was the beginning of my love for music, first it was the violin, then singing, the guitar, bass, ukulele, whatever I could get my hands on. Then, I composed my first song and uploaded to youtube, this was years ago, but in the recent months I find out that there is still one person listening to it that I have never met, and it's one of their favorite songs. And deep inside of me I made my dream come true, I had an impact on somebody else through my first love, music.

I am going to talk about two of my earliest dreams, because at the end they were combined, and it is a day that I will never forget.
First, I remember how much I was longing to take the airplane and experience flying above the clouds. To me, it sounded unbelievable, even though I know a lot of people who flew already. By unbelievable, I don't mean I was thinking it was not possible, but I don't know how to describe it, maybe almost fantastical. But I never thought I will be able to get on a plane and experience it myself.

My second dream, was to pursue an engineering career in Germany, a dream that nurtured since my youth. My first plan was to continue studying in Germany after I became 18 years old. There was a scholarship from my country, which was offered to the top 8 people in the country. This was my goal, so I studied hard and I even started studying the German language. Unfortunately I failed to reach my goal, I was only top 32 in the country which wasn't enough.
This was really disappointing to me, since at that age it sounded to me like it was my only chance.
I studied an engineering path. I kept trying to land an internship in Germany, but was never successful.
I graduated and got my engineering degree, and I started working, but never gave up on my goal. I kept applying to job positions in Germany. And finally, two years later, I got a job offer in Germany.

Three months forward, the day of my trip came. It was also the same day I got my vise (Got the visa 5 hours before the flight, it was a really emotional experience but that's a story for another time). Usually these last moments are filled with sadness and tears. You are leaving your family, friends, memories and country behind. For me it was excitement and joy. I don't mean I wasn't sad. I was, but the excitement overcame any other emotion.
I will never forget the moments the plane started running on the runway as I was looking through the small window, noticing every little detail, feeling cheerful. I felt the plane wheels leave the ground. My heart shrank and tears fell down my eyes. Excited for the future, felt proud that I finally reached my goal, having conquered obstacles and surely sad of leaving everything behind especially my family and mother. That day not just a chapter was concluded, it marked the closure of an entire volume in the story of my life.

Ever since I was a child, I've harbored an unyielding dream to venture beyond the confines of our Earth and journey to the enigmatic surface of the moon. As a wide-eyed kid, I would gaze up at the night sky, mesmerized by the silvery glow of Earth's celestial companion, and envision myself standing on its dusty surface, gazing back at our blue planet suspended in the vast expanse of space. The allure of the unknown, the thrill of exploration, and the sheer wonder of experiencing the cosmos firsthand have fueled this childhood dream of mine, igniting a passion for space exploration that still burns brightly within me today. Though the journey may seem daunting and the destination distant, the dream of setting foot on the moon continues to inspire me, driving me to pursue the stars with unwavering determination and unbridled imagination.

[BakesSunlight]

My childhood dream was to be the Prime Minister of Canada.

A silly dream, for a weird kid who didn’t fit in anywhere. That why I ended up getting engrossed by history. Everything fitted in together, the story was already written. You knew how it ended from the start. You saw how these people of long ago had dreams and if they achieved them or fell victim to life whims.

When Ammar talked about seeing the pyramids as a child and being inspired, by how if such a thing was possible. So was his dreams. I felt that. Building something so that it inspires others is the gift of creation. Ptah would be proud of this video. You inspired me to one day make it to Egypt and feel what you guys felt that day you walked through ancient sites. Thank you for that!

[sebck]

I feel like I had many dreams as a kid, however one that comes to mind as one of the first while watching this video, was gifting a trip for to my mom we would go on together. I live in Denmark where it is quite normal for most families to go on multiple vacations every year. However I had never been on one, primarily because of my parents' financual struggles, so I made the dream to someday be able to fund that dream myself. And since both me and my mom actually bonded over ancient history when I was small, different books and cartoons, Egypt was always in my mind. Thanks for reminding me of this dream, and many others. Love the yes fam! ❤ Hope we get to see more events here since you're moving to Europe :D

[bintarosadore]

You guys represent such a pristine example of the balanced masculine energy. Thank you for sharing your journey and bienvenus à Paris ! I just moved to Brussels after leaving my Parisian flat in August 2022 for 18 months of nomadism and my last step before becoming sedentary was supposed to be Egypt where some of my old ancestry roots come from, but for financial and mental health reason I had to make the choice to settle down. My first dream as a child was to become a professional singer songwriter in a metal band (very specific eheh). I am slowly materializing this dream alongside many other and would absolutely adore to go on the Louxor trip to get activated even deeper by the future-ancient frequency vibrating in this sacred land. Infinite Love and many blessings to you Ammar and anyone reading this ❤

What a amazing video again. The colors of the wall paintings remind me of my childhood dream, when I dreamt of a magical place that felt like home – a place where all the world's religions could come together, like old friends who had never met but were always meant to be together.

Picture a grand, cozy house encircled by beautifully doors all around— each one whispering stories of different faiths through colors and symbols sacred to different faits in respect of each tradition of the various religions of the world.
The doors, ever open, invieted everyone to a gathering of peace and acceptance, no matter what they believed in – SEEKING TRANSFORMATION OF DISCOMFORT TO PEACEFUL COMFORT.

It wasn’t only standing shoulder to should, it was about sharing & celebrating the good in each faith in a tapestry of shared joy – a place where wonders unfold, where hands are held, stories are cherished, and every voice is heard, honoring our traditions in beautiful spaces crafted with love, sweeping away any false beliefs and judgements.

Inside, prayers and chants would blend into a symphony of unity, building a sanctuary of support and genuine kindness, giving always everyone a space to honor their rituals with deep respect for their venerable traditions.

This dream was more than just bricks and mortar where we could all share our best bits, in respect of our differences;
it was a hope that one day, our mosaic of differences could illuminate the world’s true beauty.
It was a vision that together, in our YOUniqueness, we were able to share a world free from the battles over rightness, celebrating rather the splendor of diversity.

It was, and always will be, a heartfelt wish for a place ruled by LOVE OVER FEAR, positive compassion, and the kind of friendship that triumphs over everything. A wolrd where we choose togetherness, understanding and love – in every language, for every soul.

The goal was to show that it is possible to be different and still together, sharing and appreciating the beauty while creating a world without fights over who's right.
It was a wish for a place where love, kindness and friendship win.
