Everly found a family to play with and Alex and I just sat there and watched the sunset together. We talked about our favorite beach memories growing up. The people here have been so warm and so kind in a way that keeps catching us off guard. And then we talk about you — because what you've already done for the kids in just 11 days has genuinely blown us away. Today was quiet. Today was exactly what we needed.We're Frankie and Alex.

I walked the castle walls of Obidos today. Nobody warned me how sketchy it actually is up there. No railings. Narrow ledges. A long way down.And I have a fear of heights now that I never had before Everly was born.New episode every day. If you're new here start with Day 1 — it all makes more sense from the beginning. Day 1: https://youtu.be/_ydNTMUxuOAThis is Day 6 of 365 days of unfiltered daily vlog content and today the castle walls of Obidos, Portugal gave us everything — the fear, the breathlessness, the moments where I genuinely had to stop and catch my breath, and views so impossibly beautiful they made every sketchy step completely worth it.I talk about something today that I don't think gets said enough. How having a child changes you in ways nobody prepares you for. Not just the obvious things. The quiet things. Like suddenly being scared of heights when you never were before. Like seeing a view from a 900 year old castle wall and feeling grateful that people watch our content and that gratitude funds a life that brings us to places like this.We also talk about what we've learned here in Obidos. The history, the culture, the things you only find out when you actually walk the streets and talk to people rather than reading about it online.Magical moments. A few times I ran out of breath. And a view that stopped everything.This is why we do this.We're Frankie and Alex.

I look forward to reading your comments.

Yesterday I said something on camera I've never said out loud before. Today Alex responded in a way I wasn't ready for.Inflatable Bed Rail Link - https://geni.us/im7hdR9We're inside the walls of Obidos, Portugal today — a medieval castle town where people actually still live, eat, and walk cobblestone streets that are over 900 years old. We're staying in a 4 star hotel built into the castle walls and it is as surreal as it sounds.

But the castle isn't what today is really about.Today is about what Alex said in the car on the way here. About my childhood. About my brother and sister. About how a family can go through hard things and still come out on the right side — because love was never the thing that was missing.

We also talk about Everly's first real picnic on the side of the road in Portugal. What was supposed to be a simple stop turned into one of those moments you don't plan and can't recreate. A wildlife spotting, a playground, a toddler experiencing something for the very first time. The kind of moment that reminds you exactly why you chose this life.We wrap Day 5 feeling genuinely thankful. For this community, for your comments, for every person who has shared their story with us since Day 1. You showed up and so did we.This is Day 5 of 365 days of unfiltered daily vlog content. No scripts. No perfect shots. Just real life inside castle walls with a toddler who has no idea how lucky she is yet.

We walked into a castle in Portugal today that was built over 900 years ago. And standing there, surrounded by stone walls that have seen centuries of history, all I could think about was being 12 years old.New episode every day. Start with Day 1 if you're new here.📍 Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/fnalife/📍 Facebook — https://www.facebook.com/Fnalife/📍 Website — https://www.fnavanlife.comThis is Day 4 of 365 days of unfiltered daily vlog content and today got real in a way we didn't plan for.Portugal is everything. The people, the castles, the history, the feeling of walking through a doorway and being transported back in time. We talk about what it actually feels like to drive here — and trust me nobody shows you that part either. But somewhere between the cobblestones and the castle walls something from my past came up that I've never really said out loud before.What did 12 year old me wish for? Not a toy. Not a holiday. Something most kids take for granted.This series exists because we believe real life — the messy, unpolished, unfiltered version — is worth showing. Not just the castles and the travel. The stuff underneath it. The reason you get on a plane in the first place.

I sat down to make lunch, put a pizza in the oven, started reading your comments from Day 1 — and completely forgot about the pizza. 📍 Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/fnalife/ 📍 Website — https://www.fanvanlife.com📍Facebook-- https://www.facebook.com/Fnalife/ This is Day 3 and the community is already showing up in a way I didn't expect.

Day 1 went live and something happened that we weren't prepared for. Real people. Real responses. People sharing what they're going through, what they're looking for, why they clicked. I read every single one on camera today — the good, the ones that hit different, and yes, the one negative comment we needed to address honestly.This is what this series is about. Not the perfect shot or the scripted moment. It's the burnt pizza. It's the comment that makes you stop what you're doing. It's two people figuring out what connection actually looks like when you stop performing for the camera.

One comment stopped us in our tracks today.No Kid Hungry 👉 GoFundMe — https://gofund.me/6e55e79c4Start on Day 1 if you are new here: https://youtu.be/_ydNTMUxuOAWe're driving through a small town in Portugal. Everly has been asking for corn nuts for the last 20 minutes and she is not letting it go. We're talking about childhood memories, family dynamics, and the parts of your family you somehow never really got to know. Then we read the comments. And everything stopped. Turns out this series is reaching people we never expected. And bringing up memories in people watching all over the world that they haven't thought about in years.
