I really, really think Corbin is seriously the worst. Kelsey isn't my fave, either, but I get the feeling Corbin really want YT to be his career because he's not good at anything else. I don't think Kelsey is even employable.
I'm guilty of having a professional; pics made of both my kids for their first birthday. So are a lot of people i know. I didn't realize this wasn't a common thing..

Eh the first birthday cake smash photos are pretty normal now. We are doing one next Tuesday for my daughter who turns one soon. But they're usually done in a studio not out in the freaking freezing desert.

I find it funny how badly they're grasping at straws to remain YouTube people. Before they claimed they rarely did sponsors because they're so picky. Not almost every video is sponsored or an ad. It's crazy out there shit too that doesn't fit in with their personas. I mean how many hippie earth children bleach their teeth with $200 plus kits.
Shouldnt they be doing that with organic, cold pressed, virgin, sustainable coconut oil and charcoal powder??? lol

I guess they are not aware of the criticisms surrounding “poverty tourism.” So tone deaf. Do they not realize how insensitive it is to stay in a “five star hotel” while claiming this is about charity work? I’m willing to bet the number of viewers who are over 18, want to spend $3,000 + flights, and want to go through an interview and background check for the privilege of traveling with these idiots is approximately zero. And I fail to see from the description what anyone will be doing that would be helpful to a charity. It just says that you will be spending “two days working alongside leaders in education.” Okay then.

If Kelsey and Corbin were doing this to raise awareness and weren’t asking anyone else to travel with them, I’d still probably say they’re in it for the free trip. But recruiting others adds a whole other layer of “What the hell are they thinking?”

So they aren't taking June? The org's website says NO CHILDREN allowed:

"As of now, our expedition isn’t structured to facilitate children. However, if your partner is interested, feel free to reach out and we will try to accommodate your request."

So much for a "wandering family".... Will Missy be watching June?

The whole org seems a bit shady.

How exactly their travelling to India make a difference?
They said they will learn alongside some educationists (social workers??) but what good is going to come out of it?
They are neither famous like Bill and Melinda gates to bring global awareness about issues in third world countries nor influential and educated enough (like superwoman?? ;) ) to help considerably.
Everything about this seems fishy.

I am sort of surprised that with all their "hover" parenting they're fine to leave June for more than a week and go all the way to India for - let's be honest - a free vacation. It actually seems sort of selfish. They'll make one "very special" vlog about sex trafficking and the rest is a 5-star vacation.

Well, at least this will mark Corbin's whopping third time leaving the US. Such the wanderer..... ;) ;) ;)

They're freaking nuts, planning on taking June with them! What time of year are they thinking of going? Do they have _any_ idea of how hot and muggy it can get in India? And the smells...

These idiots think June cares about the shit she's being dragged to. How do they plan on helping build anything with a 1 year old with them. I really hope no one is stupid enough to pay 3 grand to go hang out with these fucking idiots.

I wonder why the organization is making an exception for June, but no one else can take kids?

And, HOLY HECK, good luck on that 24-hour plane travel (each way) from LA/SD to New Delhi with a baby her age. YIKES!!!!!

I know they want to be known as a travel family, but this is a bit much for a first international trip (and WAY bigger than Corbin or Kelsey have ever done in the past). I know it's free, but I'm expecting them to whine the entire time because it's going to be hard - and they don't like doing hard things.

Plus, June will need more vaccinations for India. Do they think about any of the real details involved? Hasn't she only has ONE vaccination so far? Do they even have a doctor in SoCal?

This is what I found online for traveling to India:
The CDC and WHO recommend the following vaccines for India: typhoid, Japanese encephalitis, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, rabies, polio, measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) and influenza.

Travelling to India is not a easy task. Especially for someone from the states. Personal story: I went hiking in the Himalayas with four people. We traveled to India and then to Tibet and China. It took us months of planning and preparation. And after that too it was difficult for us to deal with the hot climate, language barrier and locals. I do believe India is a hidden gem and it's beauty can be explored if you are open to all perspectives. It's one of the most beautiful countries in the world.
But these two will never get to experience that. Even with the comfort of five star hotels and amenities, they will complain non stop.
Bottom line is that they are not cut out to be wanderers or even youtubers.

They get bonehead of the year award in my eyes. Lol A month of Birthday milking and now a trip to India? DESPERATE SOULS!! Poor June, she will grow up and see through her parents. She will probably always love them, but most likely have little to with them, just as they have little to do with their own parents! Gosh I am so lucky to have my Mom & Dad. I would be so embarrassed if I was June!

I saw a comment on their announcement vlog that they are "just like that bucketlistfamily" vlog family. NOPE! They are not anything remotely close to that family! First of all, that family is RICH - and not from doing YT. The husband sold a tech company at like age 24-ish for $54M. Secondly, they had been travelers WAY before they had kids. The parents MET while living in Russia as missionaries (yes, they are Mormons).

Kelsey and Corbin are pretend travelers - especially Corbin. He's been to Europe once for a week and Canada on the van trip. :| Kelsey has a little more travel experience, but not really that much more (like two trips).

India will be interesting. But it sounds like they will have tour guides who do a lot (or ALL) of the work for them. They certainly wouldn't be going there on their own...that would be a disaster!

They probably should have just travelled to Europe for a first trip. Maybe the same places where Kelsey and Corbin went when they became engaged? Clickbait titles galore!

That airplane ride and the climate concerns me. Maybe they’ll re-evaluate after their hiking trip.

June is seriously the cutest. Lincoln from Bonnie Hoellein and June are my favorite YouTube babies!

Jeeeeeeez, ENOUGH about June's birthday!!!! :x :x :x :x They literally have nothing else to do/talk about!!! Plus, they've been talking about it for WEEEEEEEEEEEKS!

Seriously, they need to shut up about the stupid party!! Her real birthday is still a week away. So that means probably three more weeks of birthday talk. UGH!

So what happened to the garden? Did everything die? When Kelsey was outside raking the weeds I would have thought you’d be able to see some of the plants that had grown taller.

Are you serious?! These two are just losing their respect and reputation so fast... yet Corbin thinks he is the greatest gift to the world with his behavior/ talk!

These dummies are doing birthday related shopping since time immemorial but still have errands to run on the day they have company. :roll: classic.
