This decision totally makes sense! Family first! No apologies necessary! I'll keep watching you on Future Proof! ❤

      I just recently came across your channel when UA-cam popped another one of your videos when I was looking at something Prius related. Kudos to you both for hanging up this channel because you didn't want to seem like you were working "for" UA-cam, instead of the other way around.
      This is exactly the reason I didn't want to start making content for UA-cam/Instagram/other social media when I was traveling. Back in 2017 (Wow! I can't believe that was 7 years ago), I quit my job and traveled through all the lower 48 states, visiting ALL the National Parks in my Toyota Prius for a full year. A whole year traveling 30,000+ miles, camping, car camping, stealth camping, boondocking in my 2011 Toyota Prius. Met my girlfriend in that trip and she traveled through 10 states with me over the course of the year. It was a lot of fun!! I would probably have saved a lot of money with sponsorship/subscriptions/product endorsements, but then, I would have also spent a lot more time making videos than being in the moment and enjoying it. So, I decided against it.
      So, once again, kudos to you for being honest to yourselves and deciding on what is more important. Bravo...👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾. I will follow the rest of your videos before you close this down. All the best to both of you and your little one.

    Having followed this channel since you were saving the world one Birkenstock at a time, it's been wonderful to see how you've grown. Your decision to look after what matters most is bittersweet, but has felt like it was inevitable. It's going to be a fun 6 mo this and I'm excited to see what you both do in your respective projects in the future. Frankie deserves the best, and you're delivering.

      Same. Maybe we’re in the minority, but the videos about them trying to live “normal” sustainable lives have always been my favorite videos. Levi and Leah in the loft apartment sitting on the yellow couch… before “life” happened. I know RV life type videos are trendy and get the views, but I would love a channel about trying to live sustainably with a kid. Too many family channels are people in their giant White House’s driving enormous SUVs and buying junk.

    Nooo. 💔 I don't care about the build or the trailer or where you live. I have been following you since you made sustainability and zero waste content in your tiny appartment.
    Watching your Videos feels like getting updates from old friends. It makes me happy everytime.
    Did you consider making Videos every now and then? I don't care about the topic! It can be anything... Cloth dipers, gardening or just a sit down and talk video about whats been going on the last months.
    I really will miss you guys so much on UA-cam and it feels like losing the contact to old friends even tough we never met (Instagram can never update the same way).
    All the best from Austria, Europe!

    Guys I love you so much, it feels like I’ve been here for so long (I think the first video I saw was a vid about restoring and repairing birkenstocks) and this breaks my heart. Of course I will continue supporting you in other ways it’s just hard but enjoy your time off UA-cam as much as possible!❤ You are absolutely my favourite UA-cam channel so I will miss you guys!! ❤❤❤❤

    Hi Levi and Leah, I love that you guys always prioritize sustainability even in business and lifestyle. You guys deserve all the space and peace in the world. I am so happy for you guys and hope you always do what feels good for you.
    Also side bar, I didn't start following you guys for the travelling, I think that was just a phase of your life, I love seeing your lifes, your work, how you try to be more sustainable living a realistic life. Thank you so much for your videos and I hope if you ever do continue uplooading video it can be about anything you guys have interest in.
    I wish you the best and I am looking foward for those last videos. Much love from me!

    As someone who has watched this channel from the start, it has been amazing watching you grow to be a couple, married, and now parents. You've accomplished so much but this realization is a wise one. My wife and I now have two kids (3.5 and 2) and time is so valuable. Enjoy all your family time with Frankie because it will zoom by, trust me. Much love! ❤️

    I LOVED the videos in your Victoria apartment where you simply explored sustainable living practices and highlighted great brands and practices. I really hope Future Proof can head more in that positive direction and veer away from the negative tone it has taken on. I look forward to seeing where both of you go from here.

I, too, recently made the difficult decision to return back to my hometown and stay in one place for awhile for my own reasons. Best of luck to you both.

    Our daughter was born in January a few months after Frankie. I can't imagine what it's like creating Levi and Leah content. I admire the fact that you've going on with this as long as you have.
    Planning the end of this channel now was a brilliant move. I'm sure Frankie will appreciate seeing his parents Tricia and different lens when he's older (pun intended!)

I almost completely skipped the travel vlog and I was cheering you on when you decided to leave your Prius trip behind and go back home! 🏡 Family is a wonderful, beautiful thing and should be embraced and enjoyed to the full as much and as long as possible!!

As a parent myself I though totally understand your priorities and the thoughts and feelings that went into this decision ❤️ Just know, that I never watched you guys expecting constant adventure but more because you were such good company and really nice human beings ❤️ If you ever feel like making videos at one point later, I am sure that people would like to watch whatever you guys felt like creating - just because it’s the two of you ❤️ Big hugs from Denmark and all the best wishes for your little family
