In this video we find a cozy hidden cabin in the woods. This traditional Scandinavian cabin in the woods was the perfect place to escape after learning some bad news.

⭐ About Travel Beans:
Hello and welcome to our channel! We are Alex & Emma, a British couple who have been exploring the world together for over 10 years - from backpacking to vanlife:

2012/13: We both embarked on our own solo backpacking trips through Southeast Asia, where we would eventually meet at a hostel in the mountains of Thailand and begin traveling together. After a year and a half of backpacking around Southeast Asia & Australia, we returned home and to the corporate world!

2015: Travel Beans was born and we filmed our first videos on a road trip around Europe with friends! This was our biggest trip yet.. and you can go back and watch the entire adventure because we filmed ALL of it! This trip took us through Russia, Mongolia & China, on the longest railway journey in the world. Followed by highlights such as staying on a local island in the Maldives for a month, going on safari in Sri Lanka, couchsurfing & hitchhiking in Korea, seeing the snow monkeys in Japan, island hopping in the Philippines, trekking 60km through the centre of Myanmar, exploring the Indian Himalayas, and checking out some of the incredible US National Parks.

2016: Despite an unbelievably memorable year and a half of travels, which we were incredibly grateful to have had the privilege to experience.. we found ourselves in New York City, battling depression. At this point, we decided to go home and confront this problem head-on.

2017: After 6 tough months at home we decided to go away again, but this time with a goal in mind.. to turn travel into a lifestyle. We left the UK with just £500 in our bank account and a dream to make a continuous travel lifestyle happen! We both got online English teaching jobs to be able to fund our travels and to keep creating videos. We can't quite believe that our younger selves decided to take this plunge but we are so grateful they did as we are still on this journey today!

What now?
Over the years, we've discovered that we LOVE road trips and even decided to renovate our very own little VWT4 van into a campervan to be able to enjoy vanlife and spend more time on the road. We are now the proud owners of 2 awesome little campers - one based in the UK and one that we keep in the USA. You'll often find us using one of these vans to explore Europe and North America. If you enjoy this kind of content we'd recommend checking out our Italy Road Trip series, USA vanlife series and our Japan in a Tiny Van series as well as our UK vanlife content.

Our time spent overcoming depression has influenced our outlook on life dramatically! We are now traveling the world in search of what makes us happy. We love sharing the highs and lows of our trips through our videos and hope to spread a little positivity and light to all of the beautiful people who take the time to tune in and watch each week!

The two of you getting away together every now and then is a good thing for both of you. Gives the both of you time to focus on yourselves and your relationship. Love the video and I love your B&B.

[neverwannaleave]

More Beans and occasional Noah. Nice to see you both so happy on this child- free getaway. It’s good for everyone’s soul.

[aliciathom]

We had four kids and have been married almost 50 years. We always went away without kids on our anniversary for a night or two, and then later some longer trips. Absolutely loved our kids and spending time with them but also knew how important it was for us as a couple to have time together too.

[SusanHarris-qw]

Love you guys. That cabin was perfect for your get away. I'm super glad you two met and share your lives with us! You've inspired me a lot ❤ I was homeless, did drugs, went into prison, where I got to know God. He changed my life. Now I have a home, a husband and a lovely year old daughter (Zoe), and a stream of income that gets me $32, 000 Weekly. Plus a new identity- a child of God. Hallelujah!!!

[jennifergoodwin]

As a mom of two, you should do this more often. I hardly ever get away, but when I do I come back to my kids happier and more rested. I am happy for you that you have a Nana to watch your little one.

[amikailua]

OMGosh ... Noah's reaction as you walked in the door is absolutely PRICELESS!!!

[youtuber-kn]

"Tippsy-tippsy-tippsy". I loved that. 🙂 As a single mother of three (many years ago; my boys are all grown up now), I say hats off to taking much-needed time away from the little one. It rejuvenates you both and teaches him a little self-sufficiency at the same time.

[Cosmicreepers]

Speaking from experience here beans. I never wanted to leave the children. My relationship suffered but it kinda creeps on you so you don’t realise. Make time. Because a happy child is a child who sees mum and dad loving each other as a couple not just as a family x

[melissamoeller]

I think that it’s wonderful that you were prioritizing getting away together. It is so vital to maintain your relationship and your overall well-being. I certainly wouldn’t mind more videos where you get away just the two of you.

[becorations]

I love that you guys did this for yourselves. It’s so important to still be a couple, along with being parents. ❤❤ My husband and I didn’t travel together, as we had no one else to take care of our son for extended periods. But, he supported me going on a couple trips with friends when my son was a toddler. It was cathartic, and I appreciated it so much! His get aways was camping with friends….Mine were Chicago, Ohio, San Diego…

[nancyadams]

It's wonderful to see you so rested and happy. It's important for the two of you to reconnect as a couple.

[djmac]

Yes this is different and also important for you both.

[Ladybassguitarplayer]

David Bowie had the same thing, one big pupil due to injury. You are now in an exclusive club! What a sweet cabin.

[k.j.]

Let's start praying for Alex's eye to heal. He needs a miracle.❤

[carolfields]

So good to get away and so good to see your child happy to have you home. Nana and Noah special times together is precious, a gift to both! ❤❤❤️ Living the good old days🤗

[TravelswithTommyandLori]

It's illegal to touch or feed them where we have wild horses on the east coast. What beautiful creatures! So glad y'all got this time together to relax, unwind, and get some rest. Parenting is hard. Our daughter is about to have her third and she homeschools, also. She's literally my hero because I know I couldn't have done it had the situations been reversed. Great video and we always look forward to seeing you guys.

[kristinireland-doll]

Dance like no one is watching. Nice to see the two of you enjoy yourselves.

[paulinewilson]

How lovely for you two to just have some time together at a very romantic getaway. I'm sure it was good for your souls even though you missed little Noah xxx

Best martial advice we were ever given: remember to date each other !
