  • We're Greg and Mia.
    We both work full-time in New Orleans, Louisiana; but we won't let that stop us from spending our 2 weeks of PTO (Paid Time Off) a year. Thank you for watching our content!

    I've lived in Sydney since I was a 3 year old but never get enough of seeing people enjoy my city, I flew my Girlfriend from Ohio here to spend a few weeks and one evening we went to a concert at the opera house to see the Sydney Symphony Orchestra and on leaving I proposed on the Steps. We married in Ohio but live here and raised our kids. most of My Wife's family have never ventured out of their home state, so we are the cool ones from "Down Under".

    Greg ... legend! Well done son - you've got a real-life princess now - better be a good lad from now on! 🤣 Congratulations, and best of luck for the future! Mia ... you've got a good man right there. He's a little sneaky (re: the proposal), but that's gonna keep things leaning towards 'surprise' more often than not. I'm pleased you both found our little corner of the world (but try to keep it a secret 😉) ... hope you enjoyed your short stay! Sydney is a great place to be, regardless of the living costs, and I'm more than happy to call it home. Come back to visit us Aussies sometime soon ... 👍🦘🇦🇺

    “They do the dates backwards” - you mean Americans do the dates backwards and the rest of the world get it right surely? 7.9 billion people > 300 million 🤷🏽‍♀️
    Edit; congratulations 😊
    Edit 2; glad you’re enjoying your time in Sydney
    Edit 3; you two seem like a really sweet couple, hope my initial comment didn’t offend (was written before I watched the rest of your vlog) hope you enjoy the rest of your trip 😊

      After some deep reflecting, I have no idea why we put the Day in the middle hahaha. Day first really does make more sense.
      Thanks for the nice words! Next video this Friday!

    Congrats folks, you make a beautiful couple. Valentines day curiosity, what day does the USA celebrate it? Right now it's winter time here in australia, we celebrate valentines day on the 14th of February, yes I deliberately wrote the date in longhand. If you have a different valentine date perhaps it's a warm season thing?

    It's so refreshing seeing young people eating meat, Tired of vegans and vegetarians only and i was beginning to think this is how the world is going to be ?,If you are a vegan or vegetarian that's fine but you have to think how your body is going to react as you reach 50. Suppliments can only do so much and lack of basic iron and nutrients you get from meat will tell.

    The US is the only country in the world (that I'm aware of) that puts the month before the day. If anything, you guys are doing it backwards. Why? Who knows. Why are the US, Liberia and Myanmar the only countries that don't use the metric system? Who knows. The UK uses a bizarre mix of both metric and imperial.
