I’m sorry she looks like a frog and her lips are always DRY!

There is something seriously wrong with this woman. Like, I get wanting to minimalize laundry, but wouldn't it make more sense to have the kids pick out their own outfits or say if the older ones want to wear whatever they want they get to do their own laundry? Who actively encourages their 18 year old children to get married, unless they are the Duggars? Who WANTS their kids to be in diapers? This woman screams basket case more than any other YouTuber I have seen, and there are some CRAZIES out there.

I’ll save someone else the clicks....the big announcement is she bought/rented idk a motor home for them to travel across the summer. From the clickbait title she said they’re moving from the house into the motor home but it’s just to travel. She said 12 countries but during editing said 20 countries. So, it will be a lot of sorry guys no video today because we’ve been super busy traveling and then months of drawn out videos of where they went

I just watched, too. Meh. To be frank, I'm disappointed. While we don't have 10 kids, we are a large family and I enjoy watching how other parents of larger families juggle their household and take care of their kids, meals, etc. Moving the kids into a tiny van to travel around isn't going to be that interesting to a lot of people--at least, not in the same way people found her morning routine interesting. PLUS so many people are doing it these days that it's not a very novel idea. AND, let's be real, her travel videos suck.

I guess her new morning routine is now pointless. Also the evening routine. And the pantry/shopping trips. And fridge tour. And thank goodness she only has 2 sets of outfits (or w/e) for the kids so she can try to find laundromats in foreign countries every other day to do their laundry. And I guess Jerusalem can say goodbye to playing drums for six months. And Cleopatra the piano every morning.

It's just feels stupid.

I went back to finish watching and she stated that the younger ones didn’t understand that they were going to be selling off everything & then switched up said she’s sold nearly everything except a few things. So, she bought all those instruments and turned around & sold them. When they did the house tour there were still a lot of instruments in boxes, what was the point in buying it all? I don’t get it. Minimalist but owns a lot of expensive things & then sells it all to be minimalist family of 10 with 3 toddlers in a tin can for 6 months

I wonder how they are going to maintain their diet?? Cooking/eating in a small space is going to be near impossible.

I can’t even imagine how annoyed the older kids are going to get not being allowed to have any privacy away from the screaming little ones. There’s a YouTube family of 11 that lives in an RV but all of their kids are older, I couldn’t imagine living like that with 4 small, loud children. Also she definitely said it had 8 beds so I wonder how their sleeping will work.

I am not believing a word she says. For sure they are not selling their stuff because most likely they are going back home after this trip. Also I wouldn't be sure that they will travel for 6 months. They could travel for a few weeks and she could make tons of videos of it (think about the lapland holiday..).

My guess is they are just spending their summer holiday on the road. Or they are finally moving to Australia and shipping their stuff there.

And ANOTHER youtuber jumping into the VAN LYF
I can't. Uhh how are they going to travel for 6 months straight when the dad is almost blind and on disability? Surely he can't drive. Taina will drive while the older kids do everything else and the dad sleeps through it all.

I imagine she'll make Cleopatra drive (I don't think Jerusalem has a license yet or she'd probably make them take turns) and she'll use needing to record and edit as an excuse for her not driving.

I think they did sell their things and at the end of the trip they will try to relocate to Australia. Taina posted that she wasn't posting a video because she had been on a long flight. Maybe she's going to handle some of the loose ends of moving before the trip.

From what I read on another site, they have been on their trip since May.

I wouldn’t be surprised because she’s always complaining about WiFi.

[Charleston3]

This is something I posted on another forum I randomly came across. I thought I was the only one who has noticed how awkwardly close Jerusalem and Cleopatra are.

This is the video I was referring to at 4:02 Taina zooms in and tells Cleopatra she has a big bum and then a few seconds later you can see Jerusalem looking at her butt.

I’ve been following the Licciardo-Toivola family for a while now through their YouTube videos and a lot of threads like these. It’s addicting trying to figure out what’s actually going on with this family. I did recently check out a few videos from Leonardo’s channel from a few months ago, and it seems like the family is a lot more normal and relaxed when he’s recording. Taina’s Videos are definitely scripted and controlled, even she acts differently in Leonardo’s vlogs.

I'm convinced she manages her kids' Youtube etc. accounts. "Cleopatra" commented on her latest video using the same bizarre punctuation: "Omega, loves avocados". There is not supposed to be a comma there, but I have noticed Taina does that in all of her posts.

I think most of the time she overestimates how smart her kids are. Sure thy=ey may be good at music but it doesn't seem like they actually know much else in her vlogs they couldn't even believe when she told them that "yous" wasn't actually a word. The kids finish her homeschooling at 13 so they've probably forgotten most of what they've learned.

Ummm, youse/yous is 100% a word. I'm confused who you're trying to imply isn't intelligent her or them?

“Yous” is not a word it’s a dialectal expression

I also was not meaning to imply that her or the kids were not intelligent, just that she brags about how smart they are but in all honesty they are just normal people.

Where did you read this? Just curious what other forums there are about them.
