A no can be one step closer to a yes!

Hello, hello! We saw lots of excitement in response to our 👀What's next for 2023? edition. We have another fun newsletter ready for you this week, so let’s get into it!

Last week we shared share some sneak peeks of what to expect from us this year, including hints about the team’s future travel destinations throughout Asia.

This week Thomas, Staffan, and Cory are currently filming an exciting adventure somewhere beautiful. And guess what? They brought two strangers with them!

Taking strangers on spontaneous adventures is something we really missed doing.

Can you guess where they are? Show off your geo-guessing skills in the comments!

Cam, Dez, Tommy, and Tristan have been having an incredible time in Australia filming round two of the Editors’ Series. They have had a blast spending time with each other and the Yes Fam throughout Australia, including Sydney and Melbourne.

With our team being spread across the world it can be difficult for all of us to bond. We are hoping to do more of these get-togethers to keep everyone close despite our distance. They are such a creative, colorful bunch, as you can see in this photo!

We asked the editors to each give us one word to describe their experience so far. Tristan’s answer was our favorite because it goes perfectly with the photo: “wiggly”

The team is soaking in their last week of Australian sunshine. Turns out some of them weren’t as prepared as others for experiencing summertime in January.

We want to recommend a new content creator for you to check out and she’s someone that might look a little familiar. Last year, we brought along our friend Meredith to come with us to meet the wolves from the Apex Protection Project.

Meredith has embarked on a cross-country road trip from Florida to California. These two States are around 2703 miles or 4350 kilometers apart. She is on a journey to push herself to do things she has always wanted to do, to get out of her comfort zone, and to bring along strangers to join her for the fun.

She has challenged herself to complete 23 Days of Rejection. On day 1 she has to get 1 rejection, on day 2 she has to get 2 rejections, and so on. She will post about her trip and the 23 day journey on her YouTube Channel.

Here is the trailer for the challenge:

She doesn’t know we’re posting about her channel in the newsletter, so show her some love in the comments of her videos. Let’s help get her to her first 1000 subscribers!

This week we want to highlight a super cool movie meetup. The filming is taking place in Germany and Costa Rica, and one of the crew thought the Costa Rica Yes Fam would be perfect to help with the job. They got asked if they would be interested in being extras and of course they said yes!

Make sure to check out the Costa Rica Yes Fam on Instagram to see all the cool meetups that they have planned, and keep an eye out for them in La Pura Vida when it’s released.

Sometimes the real movie magic is the friends that we make along the way!

See you next week!
