malaysia check it out we are back in kl the city we know and love one of our favorite
cities no right yes one of our favorite countries definitely my glasses oh no anyway the point is
this we wanted to uh circle back and talk about peru before we jump into the next 90 days which
should have 60 or so vlogs from malaysia coming soon so malaysia 2.0 starts after this vlog
but we did want to circle back to our peru series because as you guys know we got robbed in peru
and then we just sort of stopped all of our projects right we have a bunch of footage we
didn't use we have a bunch of people we want to thank and things we want to say but once we got
robbed we sort of just kind of had to go back to canada and it all went wrong right which is a bit
of a shame because outside of getting robbed in peru we actually had a great time that's right
we had some really nice experiences with local native people we were really learning a lot about
uh traditional quechua culture some really unique experiences and we didn't mention any of them we
just sort of stopped everything and went back to canada to purchase all our new stuff that's true
before coming back to malaysia so first things first for the month of march in peru we were
traveling with a group of people called the wi-fi artists now they invited us and hosted us it's a
really unique way of traveling it's a community of digital nomads so everybody in their community is
working and traveling right so for this reason wi-fi artist finds everybody a really nice
apartment you guys probably saw some clips of our apartment way nicer than places we usually stay
really really nice apartment because wi-fi artists can negotiate a good price because
they've got 10 or 15 people so you get a really affordable and really nice apartment as well as
they had a working space which was uh sort of incredible they had like soundproof rooms where
you can do conference calls and stuff so all of the people in their group were monday to friday
working in the working center the working space and then on weekends the wi-fi artists would plan
these really incredible trips yeah now the most important thing to mention is when we
got robbed we were not with the wi-fi artists that's right they were pretty accommodating to
us because they're sort of weekend warriors they work during the week and then every weekend they
do these events whereas ivana and i are every day doing events more or less so they let us come and
go so we went away from the wi-fi artist we found our own accommodation we stayed there
and we got robbed so no security concerns at the wi-fi artist and i will say this the guy
who created wi-fi artists he was traveling with us he's a bit of a superstar he's a really great guy
he's really helpful to us really understanding because the idea was we would travel with them
we'd make some videos showing this unique uh community they've built right because we got
robbed we lost all the footage we lost everything and so he was really nice about everything right
you guys remember the video where we got robbed he was there with us yeah spent the whole night with
us in the police station he kind of volunteered his time he bought us dinner that night we had no
money with us and everything so shout out to him and we really enjoyed our peru trip outside of the
terrible event that's true now when we first heard or at least when i first heard of wi-fi artists
i figured it was a way to travel for beginners but people who were not good at traveling or they were
nervous about traveling they could travel in this group it's a lot better you have people you're
with and you kind of have this community but obviously ivana and i are not beginner travelers
three years going and we found a lot of value there that's right we sort of really liked it
one thing i liked most about it was our group was a whole bunch of different people from different
countries there was a mexican lady there was a french lady there was an armenian guy a bunch
of american people canadian indonesian uh what's nice about traveling in a group is you get to see
the tourist attraction or the experience you're having you get to see it from other people's eyes
so i'm sort of naturally looking at things as a canadian perspective
with a indonesian add-on together that's right but uh seeing things from other people's point
of views sort of enriches the experience i would say the experience was something like uh
how's it going faster alone but further together if you're doing pros and cons of wi-fi artists
uh it's certainly a little bit slower because you've got a big group of people so you can't
just kind of get hungry go for lunch you've got to ask everybody what they want and find a
restaurant that can accommodate 10 or 12 people and everything but the experience was really
really yeah rich we got we got to meet and new friends from different backgrounds like we mean
we met either youtubers there's other youtubers there's a lot of accountants a lot of people doing
like product design online yeah a lot of people working online yeah exactly and everyone's sort of
young and driven and doing something interesting they all have different skills and they've got a
different life and it's really nice to travel with them we were sort of burnt out from from three
years of consistent travel and then meeting up with the wi-fi to sort of rekindle their love for
travel and meeting people and learning yeah so my point is whether you're a new traveler
who's nervous uh definitely there's value in wi-fi artists because they plan everything for
you yeah it was nice for a while because i plan everything for our trip normally and it was nice
yeah it was nice to get them a month off they have someone working there who plans everything
they have some work on there who organizes all the accommodations right stuff so everything
is really nice for a beginner would be super helpful but also for people like us was quite
yeah enjoyable i like it yeah and to be clear the week before we got robbed was the greatest week
ever oh yeah we had so many nice experiences coming uh doing things in small town peru
countryside of peru learning about native culture and so for this reason we wanted to
circle back and sort of talk about our peru trip with some positive light we're super excited to
be here malaysia like off the charts uh but we just kind of left everything in peru as
is which is not really right because we did have a really good experience that's true
and what's nice is because there's a community of people everyone's got sort of different skills
there's one mexican lady who obviously speaks spanish she says okay we'll do a spanish lesson
she's not really a spanish teacher but she just puts together a little course and we all learn
the basics of spanish which is really helpful because in peru we were asking people how how
much this cost we know all the numbers and hello how are you i'm good thanks all the basics um we
even had the opportunity oh which would have been a whole video itself uh ivana and i did a talk
we had like i think there was like eight people or ten people there it was quite a number of people
it showed we didn't talk about our experience youtube and our experience traveling and yeah
it was sort of nerve-wracking we're not really talking people but we have we went out of our
comfort zone we went out of our comfort zone and we gave a talk and we met a bunch of other people
yeah who are not part of wi-fi artists but rather part of the co-working space yeah so it's like uh
it's a good way to network with other people as well really good way to network with young
interesting people uh we're planning on doing a whole video about the talk it was like wow we're
doing a talk you know yeah i feel like we weren't on ted talk or something even though we were in
mini ted jr ten people at a ted talk but uh yeah anyway all the footage was gone and we just sort
of got fed up and left it and so for this reason we wanted to circle back and give a shout out to
wi-fi artists the owner the guy is a good guy yeah very nice guy and really sharp and really
planned a nice trip yes now they're in mexico city i think next month they're going to portugal
every month they do a new city and they bring this group with them and it's yeah it's really great uh
it's really great if you're a digital nomad or someone who has the possibility of working in a
different city like working online yeah uh wi-fi artist is really something to look into yeah and
they also actually they were so nice because they have something called digital backup technology
back up oh yeah this is incredible yeah this is one of the one of the benefits of traveling with
them is they've got extra laptops and extra gear and so when we got robbed we did release a few
vlogs and we got robbed and stuff we were able to use their laptop for a couple days before
we flew down to canada right right one of the added benefits there's a whole list of benefits
i would really consider looking into it yeah if you're someone who can work in a different city
because if you're going to go at it alone honestly traveling full-time is a job and of itself so if
you're already have this job online and then you want to travel you basically got two jobs you're
going to be working 24 7. but if you just join up wi-fi artists you do your job and they'll
take care of more or less everything else that's true highly recommend it there you have it highly
recommended and honestly super excited to be back in malaysia super excited for this trip starts
now we've got probably 50 or 60 vlogs coming from yeah yeah i think the wi-fi artists will
make their way here too as well maybe they'll have a great time in chaos great city i think
they'll go to southeast asia but not to malaysia at the moment but maybe one day we'll consider
but they're still going slowly because it's every month they change they don't want to fly
that's right 27 hours they stay in uh one city for one month and then they move somewhere sort
of yeah yeah yeah so every month they move to another country they should do kl because it's
awesome here i'm super excited for this shout out to wi-fi artists hopefully you guys will
consider it because it was really great yeah we didn't have anything to complain
about no no they're being robbed which to be clear happened yeah it wasn't yeah boom there
you have it guys okay thanks for watching our video just a short one today just a simple one
but uh super excited for lots of malaysian stuff coming hey shout out to my firedos later guys
