So long, America🫡🇺🇸
49 days ago we landed in the USA to follow our country at the World Cup. We had no idea it would turn into the trip of a lifetime.
Thank you to everyone who followed along, and to all the people we met who made this journey even more special. We honestly don’t have the words to express how grateful we are for everything you did for us.
This trip exceeded every expectation we had. We came here with an open mind, wanting to experience as much of the country as possible. I still remember telling my friends on the flight to Atlanta that I hoped we’d get to meet a few locals on this trip. Now we’re flying home with friends all across the USA.
Before we came, we heard so many stereotypes and warnings about America. People told us about safety concerns, that they might check our social media at the border, and all kinds of other things. None of it matched our experience. This was probably the most welcoming country we’ve ever visited.
So if you have the chance to travel, do it. The world isn’t nearly as bad as the media often makes it seem. 99% of people are awesome!
I heard this quote somewhere during the World Cup, and I think it sums up our experience perfectly:
“If you want to hate the world, watch the news. If you want to love it, travel it.”
Thank you, America ❤️🇺🇸
The fire alarm accidentally went off while this football team was training in the gym. Firefighters showed up, made sure everything was good, and then one of them decided to hop on the bench and start repping 225. The entire gym went insane.
@concertvids34 First time I took my son to a show. Last night was literally a euphoric experience. That doesn’t even count that they opened with Nancies and BOWA. I’ve been to a bunch of shows and this one was hard to beat. Considering skipping work and flying to Indy today. 😂
@SoMuchToPlayDMB@davematthewsbnd I’m pretty sure everyone within 50ft of me thought I was on drugs when he mentioned Jake Simpson joining. Pure euphoria. My son’s first concert with me. I cried.
During a Dave Matthews Band concert at Giants Stadium, New Jersey, Dave Matthews improvises a lyric, “let it rain,” and at that very moment, a downpour begins.
It’s a nationally-reported divine coincidence.
