2025 Travel Recap: Our BEST & WORST Destinations + Big 2026 Plans!

2025 was an unforgettable year for the Living Phase 2 YouTube channel, and in this video we’re looking back on all of our adventures, travels, and lessons learned along the way.
From bucket-list destinations to places we probably wouldn’t rush back to, we share our favorite travel experiences of 2025, our least favorite destinations, and the moments that surprised us the most. We also talk honestly about what we learned from traveling full-time, what worked, what didn’t, and how those experiences will shape our future adventures.
Of course, no year of travel would be complete without talking about food—we reveal our favorite meal of 2025 and the destination that truly won us over through our taste buds.
As we close the chapter on 2025, we also share what we want to do better in 2026, how we plan to grow the Living Phase 2 channel, and give you an exciting preview of our 2026 travel plans and upcoming adventures.
