Loved hearing Jacks commentary for the Wsl. Jack, if you read this good solid fresh takes man ( WSL NEEEDS EM!!! ). Also Alana you need to make a recipe book! id definitely buy it
@@janettegibson9960 as a cook I measure with my heart lol but seriously I’m looking for good vegan recipes and she’s always throwing down some of the best baked goods I’ve seen. So I’d love to see her utilize that and make a cookbook or a digital cookbook
Alana, let me preface this by saying, I get the body struggles. Especially after having 2 kids myself, things just seem to work differently. It's like getting to know a different body. All that to say, to me your body is goals! I think you are a badass! Sending good vibes from Virginia! 🌊💖
She‘s right. I felt so cold in New South Wales, AUS, too. And that being said from a German gal. It was my fault though. Didn‘t bring my fleecejackets and stuff that usually keeps me warm. Adjusting is always hard. I just got back from Miami. The heat was a nice change. I loved it. Cheers to Alana and her family ❤️ xx
Hey guys, welcome back to ‘Straya. Sux that you’re a bit flat, Alana. Maybe it’s a combination of a different climate, the food, a bit of stress being out of your comfort zone, hormonal, etc etc. But, I like how you’re willing to bare your soul, powerful. Jack cruises, but he looks like he’s a good dad. Anyways, enjoy the new surrounds and the beaut north coast beaches.
No it’s not we have our own problems don’t know why people glamourise the country so much especially Americans like this one living unrealistically as a born and raised I hate Americans even more from this
We have problems with the indigenous, youth crime which there was never before but getting bad and worse stabbings happen everyday and to random people even if ur a tourist like her u get stabbed and robbings and break ins have fun tho
As an Aussie ex-pat I totally relate to the sheer joy on jacks face of home breaks haha!! But oh do I feel ya Alana there’s some big changes here is aus - the longest day/winter solstice is today and there’s a lot of wild energy around as it gets cold (aussies hate cold). Lots of ending cycles and starting them ❤️🔥
You inspired me to get the Harmony blend :) I truly look up to you. I’m starting my health journey today. Coffee has been giving me terrible jitteriness and stomach aches :/ I’m excited to give this a try! I’d love if you made a video on different wellness stuff you do/ take :) you & Jack are great role models - thanks for the vids! xx
Just saw the latst Bethenny docu about her taking on Jaws. And alot sbout the Soul Surfer movie And alot of you in there. I watched your channel alot a few yrs ago. Sorry I havent been here. Glad Im back. Luv u guys
Love how y'all incorporate being an attentive parent to both your boys AND still make time to surf. Most women would love to have the booty you have . I'm not being a weird - o but - There's NOTHING wrong with your body . For someone which had 2 kids. Um yeah-. You look fabulous 👍 .
Can someone please explain to me how when there is a bunch of people surfing, how you decide who gets what wave? Wouldn’t everyone try to get on the same wave?
It can get down to minus 4 degrees celsius at night. Then 26 degrees next day. It's the drop in temperature so fast that's nasty. Friends from France were shocked.
I'm scared to say it, but sometimes we wonder how surfers process sharks? Australia has them....great whites. How do you block that out? There is so many surfer's that have a great day 99% of the time. ???
Koda being chatty at the end was adorable, we need subtitles for him, and a note to Jack: for gods sake, please put shoes on when you are chopping wood with an ax! Surfing will be hard without toes!
I’m sorry but it really seems like you don’t want to be there and you did it for Jack. That’s fine, but you might need the warm environment you grew up with in order to recover and heal.
Aussies just know how many Americans r in aus doing the same thing making content out of being here how sick she isn’t the only one there’s more unfortunately
Alana, you didn't ask for advice but I feel it's just so obvious that you're lacking nutrients on a strict plant-based diet. I did it for two years and at some point couldn't continue anymore. No need to eat big amounts of animal protein, but like eggs from your friends' chickens or oysters are ethically not as bad as milk e.g.
She is a pro surfer as a vegan, had 2 healthy vegan pregnancies, all she said is she wants to work on her physique how does that in anyway suggest she needs animal products??
But I don’t get it.. why do you force your kids to be vegan?! Let them choose. Let them choose, they are free to choose. Your kid eating vegan cheese, and no calcium to help him grow?! I’m sorry but this is not healthy.
Don’t non vegan parents force their children to eat animal products? I was forced to eat meat as a child and HATED it. I have been vegan for over 16 years and wish I went vegan sooner. I hated animal products as a kid.
@@lucianas4919 I understand your point, but what I’m trying to say is just let your kids eat whatever they want whether vegetables or meat, they will eventually figure out what they like and choose the best lifestyle for themselves. Why restrict them and deprive them from nutrients that will help them grow?! I’m vegetarian by choice but my parents gave me the option to be vegetarian, nothing was forced on me.
@@esra_k.c Vegan children are NOT being deprived of nutrients. Children eat how they are raised. Sadly, when children are raised eating diets of highly processed food/junk food, no one seems to say anything. However, when children are being raised vegan everyone has an opinion, and thinks they know whether or not a child is getting the necessary nutrients they need. Parent raise their children by doing what they think is best, not just regarding food, but religion, education, etc. Kids don’t have a choice, until they are old enough to decide for themselves, they follow how they are raised. You don’t have to agree with it, but it’s not your decision on how other people raise their children. Most adult vegans were not given the choice as children, they were forced to eat meat/animal products. There’s nothing wrong with raising your children vegan. At the end of the day, no matter how you choose to eat the important thing is, to make sure you are getting the nutrients necessary to be healthy. So many people eating the standard American diet don’t, and people are silent. However, when someone is vegan everyone has an opinion. I wish I was raised vegan, sadly I wasn’t, nor was I given the option. You don’t have to agree with someone else’s choices, but you don’t have the right to tell other people how to raise their children.
If you are feeling cold in Australia, then there are definitely essential nutrients lacking in your diet. A big fat steak on the barbie would fix you up perfectly. As for the weight issues, I agree, this chick would look much better 10 or 15 pounds lighter, definitely needs to ease up on the carbs and eat more protein, the softness of her belly reflects this.
Thank you for the upload Alana you would never guess it's cold there the vegetation looks so lush and green beautiful views from that balcony. Amazed at how much the boy's are growing God Bless you ❤❤ BTW you are beautiful !
Can you please film another real-time HIIT workout? The minimal equipment you have right now is actually helpful as most people don’t have much at home. I still do the HIIT workout you filmed years ago, love it! Also, you look amazing but I know it can be frustrating to feel like you put in work & aren’t seeing it. It’s easier to put on lean muscle when after you’re done nursing, your hormones will go back up… im not saying you should stop nursing if you still are though!
Just wanna say, you’re right! It’s super cold!! I think I got hypothermic one night. IDK how Ausis still go without a wetti (yeah at all!!) here in Cooli. Thery are crazy hehe and sorry but QLD has no tropical weather! And I think I saw you at snapper the other day. So flat right now.
@@martemi3 no need for alarm - it was just a toy snake that he pulled out of his toy box at the start of the video, I just found it funny in a vid about moving to Aus.
I'm all for people doing what they want and what feels good for them, but I was *just* thinking the same thing for whatever reason. I feel like it would be really good for her. But of course, it's her decision :)
@@dharmagrlit’s not just about protein there are over 15 nutrients you can’t get from plants mainly the fat soluble vitamins which are essential for human health
As a born and raised why is aus becoming more and more American I hate that there all coming here thinking it will fix there problem it’s not and it’s becoming more American as in Aussie culture doesn’t feel like Aussie anymore or what it did when I was a kid it feels american, her kids and herself r all Americans not Aussies I don’t even know how she’s living here permanently when immigration law is strict and when she and her kids know American English not Aus and us Aussies literally pick on Americans all day because of how much we hate them
I hope the government stop bringing them in seriously it’s getting whack I saw a African American male with his son in the area I live and where I live it’s a bunch of Aussies they were that loud I knew where there from and no Americans would think to go where I live or be here there all in the unrealistic tourist part of the place but I saw more of them at the shopping centre I go to aswell and they were actually loud I heard word for word what they were saying and like that area of the shops centre don’t even know how they found it it’s a arab area not the city
humans literally lived without milk for tens of thousands of years before domesticating cows, and they did in fact “grow” without it. milk is not a biological need for anyone but babies. you clearly have strong feelings about milk, but making up false facts and calling anything else “abuse” is just absurd.
Loved hearing Jacks commentary for the Wsl. Jack, if you read this good solid fresh takes man ( WSL NEEEDS EM!!! ). Also Alana you need to make a recipe book! id definitely buy it
Yes please recipe book for sure
Even if theres no measurements.. cuz i cook that way also 😅

You all look adorable. Please please don't let Jack chop wood barefoot. Also get a chopping block.
I second that. I was cringing ....ugh..
Please tell me what sandals Jack is wearing. The black ones. Thank you! ❤

'A day in our lives in Australia...' *banks pulls up a fake snake from the bucket* 🤣🤣🥰🥰
Ive always loved seeing the vegan meals you create. Ive been vegan for 5 yrs now.
Im psyched to see vegan recipes and lifestyles.
What an awesome family. Would love to visit Aus one day
Love how y'all incorporate being an attentive parent to both your boys AND still make time to surf.

Can someone please explain to me how when there is a bunch of people surfing, how you decide who gets what wave? Wouldn’t everyone try to get on the same wave?
It's complicated but usually there is an order but with so many people, you just have to learn the break and the surfers there.
Who ever is closest to the point of the wave we’re it breaks has the right of way
Very Nice to see u both and boys in Australia...Enjoy and stay Stoked
Alana and fam livin' on the Gold Coast now? 🥰
love love love your vids!
Kia ora from across the ditch...good surfing here too but a little cold : )
U both surfing really good..and boys looking growing up...✌️🇳🇿❤️🔥
So what's "Australia cold..." Interested as a northern european
..
Right! It looks beautiful and tropical 😂 cold to me is 3ft of snow
It can get down to minus 4 degrees celsius at night. Then 26 degrees next day. It's the drop in temperature so fast that's nasty. Friends from France were shocked.
@@karensheehan2878 wow, ok. That's huge drop. Also will feel colder if air if moist.

Jack needs to get back on the QS. #JACK2025CT!
Is it actually that easy to move to australia? You need to get the permant residency, don't you? How do you get it?
You can get year long visas really easy. They have a ton of options as far as visas go on immi Australia
Koda being chatty at the end was adorable, we need subtitles for him, and a note to Jack: for gods sake, please put shoes on when you are chopping wood with an ax! Surfing will be hard without toes!
welcome back to Australia
Nice surfing.
Happy Monday
Have you ever considered charity work?
Thank you for recipe
Is Banks casually playing with a snake in the background of the beginning of the video?????
If yes, couldn’t get more Aussie..!
Yes!!? OMG
I hope it wasn’t poisonous
r u on thé gold coast?
Alana, please look up and listen to Dr. Stacy Sims. She might interest you in women's health.
Beautiful
imagin ya mum and dad rippin that hard
I’m sorry but it really seems like you don’t want to be there and you did it for Jack. That’s fine, but you might need the warm environment you grew up with in order to recover and heal.

Just brush your teeth afterwards or rinse with water

R you high? Why are the eyes so red? No judgement just genuinely asking
I love your grey/lilac wetsuit. Where did you get it?
Do you guys smoke herbs?
you are such a good role model and love your vibe!!!!
how does money work when traveling so much? i want to travel/ move to Italy for a while and i don't understand the banking system
Good question
They’re both pro surfers and sponsored, and they have several real estate investments.
Wowza Jack still rips, most of the crew around their 30s are fading…can’t chop wood but
Was that Fingal where you guys were surfing...
Your videos are so relatable for me! I have two little boys and live by and love the water (Lake Michigan). Thanks for sharing your life!!
Good to see the family back in Australia⚡
I love your utube videos and have to say you have the most Beautiful family thanks for sharing ❤
Daw I love y’all vibes🌀
I lived in Kirra for 2.5 years and I'm pretty sure I know this spot but I'll keep it between us. :-) Makes me miss Aus.
Banks, "Can I come with you, please?"
Me watching the video: 😭😭😭💕💕💕
Great video! Can you please share the recipe of whatvyou made for breakfast? It looks really good and I want to try it out
is it hard always being in winter with the limited daylight??
I have one of those neoprene belts too (and a vest in fact). Maybe try some laser lipo or cryogenic sculpting which works very well for fine tuning...
Is banks gonna start school this year?
Surfing clips are filmed well.
What’s the sweatband???
Uh, your kid is playing with a snake in the background😂
😳
When??

Yeah with all the crime and violence hope another tourist doesn’t get stabbed aye
You should really consider adding animal protein to your diet. I used to be vegan and adding animal products was a huge game changer for me.
I'm all for people doing what they want and what feels good for them, but I was *just* thinking the same thing for whatever reason. I feel like it would be really good for her. But of course, it's her decision :)
Eating animal flesh and fluids is repulsive, violent, and terrible for the planet.
She hit the plateau n Jack incorporates eggs again
You were never vegan. Veganism is an ethical philosophy, not just a diet. No vegan goes back to supporting the torture of animals in factory farms.

This is not a typical life of an Australian. This is life as an expat with money in Australia. We don’t live like this. This video makes me angry.

Does everyone in the US talk like you. Or do you choose to drag your words out.
Byyyyyyye
Butter , milk , cream, eggs, if you don't give this to a child it's horrible parenting and child abuse because it won't grow to its full potential.
