- After feeling too attached to the internet, social media, and my devices for so long, I decided to go cold turkey -- 100% internet free for an entire week.

Wow so privileged to think you need internet or modern day America can't live wothout it. Tons and I mean tons of people cant afford it. Library and family's homes is how I watch things get up to date. You learn to manage its really not that dramatic.
I am 11 and I am always on my phone I am going to do this challenge the only thing is I will not have anything to do because if you are an adult you can do work drive places but not for an 11-year-old have any tips
U look like Natalie outley
Dear god.. you are so beautiful 😍
What the hell I'm from BELIZE
I would try to do this but I go to places alot and my family need to know what to is going on
Was that your sister with you? If so are y'all twins? 😃
These videos are awesome. I am now working out, drinking more water and now I’m not going to go on social media a lot thank you
150 electronic mails. 😯 (Not a game)
i wish i could afford a vacation to an island in belize.
Well I noticed when I got a dog I started to spend only about 4 hours a day with my phone, it used to be 6 hours a day, thx to my dog 🐶
Why is she saying that she is hairy? I dont see iT pleass tell me
I'M FROM BELIZE! SHOOK
This was a very good, realistic video. I use Google maps a lot. I've also in the past weanes myself odd the internet while still keeping my regular schedule. I deleted all social media from my phone. And for the first few days I did grab my phone without thinking and then realized I had nothing to open. Once I got past that part I was able to focus more on my home and my family and I actually had time to bible study and read books.
Weaned *
Oh my god I looooovvvve ready player one
The no maps thing is crazy to me. Where I am, you can get a map anywhere you go
Great video touching on very important points.
The internet makes us feel like others can solve our problems for us or we can find simple solutions quickly. In reality this is simply not true at all. Reality is that only we can solve our problems and do it best with the help of others and the internet. But the focus has to be on ourselves in the problem solving process. This takes a lot of reflection. The biggest problem we have today is people don't reflect on their daily events. Their are constantly inundated with a barrage of largely pointless information and spend no time thinking about their previous time on a certain site and if it was worthwhile. So no corrective action is taken when bad choices are made. We are surrounded by the most skillful marketers using better tools than have ever been available in history to sell us stuff we don't need. Unless you pause and think you don't realize these things. So unplug and think. Then you'll be more productive when online. Step away often to be your best!
It's pretty simple when you're busy :')
Wake up - eat - go to uni - homeworks - eat - shower - book - sleep
I am doing this now
She could still take pictures on her phone right?
Once my Dad and Mum decided it would be a good idea for our family to have a month long internet, computer, tablet, and phone ban.
She looks like Natalie outlet
"How do you figure out what the news is?" An ancient thing in script and scroll called...
A newspaper
I know so old and unknown. XD
I have do e this for 10 days in a row
this is how I want to live, on an island where all we do is communicate like a human and enjoy life by appreciating the earth. I'm 14 yrs old and I love Mexico I live in the USA but I personally love cleaning clothes by hand and walking to locations.
It's ok. I know how you feel because I went camping and there was no wifi no signal or anything else
OMG i could not deal. lol nobody uses a phone book. omg can we see more of garrett and janelle???
WOW ummm... So you're saying in LA a cab is much more EXPENSIVE than an Uber? Here is the other way around. Wow.
I’m feeling really guilty right now bc it’s two in the morning and I’m watching this
Your sister Looks like natalia outlet
No offense I LOVE your videos but I go without internet all the time
I recently went without internet for 2 weeks !! It was great! I worked out! I spend more face to face with my friends and it was just so greatttttt
The time taken from waking up to having the first smoke was a measure of addiction. I think the same applies to internet.
For a sec, I thought your sister was you and you had cut your hair. You guys look so alike! :)
I go 7 hours without internet every weekday!! (Because of school)
I didn’t have internet for almost a year I just got it back 5 months ago
every year, i go camping for 1 week and i have no cell service or internet connection. it's honestly the best week of the entire year for me. it's nice to get away from everything, enjoy nature, and spend time with my family.
My phone wakes me up in the morning and I have housemates... so I can't or it in another room.
There are studies saying kids that grow up with screens (TV, computer, phone, tablet...) their intelligence gets reduced. My parents didn't allow any of it. I got my first computer at 14, first phone 16 and I could watch TV at 18. I felt a bit left out especially texting in the teen period. But as a kid I would go to my neighbors and watch my favorite show. My parents would teach me how to use a computer, I would use paint, play games on it when allowed. And we would rent movies for Friday and Saturday night. So it wasn't really bad. I probably read more than other kids, and had more extracurriculars like dance and music...
Found your future boyfriend 🙈
R u indian girl bc u r look like that coment me

Why did you bring your laptop on vacation if you couldn't use it?
Love this video!
The one thing i cant stop thinking about while watching this is you may not be using internet but your still recording yourself and are aware your being recorded during your experience. Knowing full well that its all going on the internet at some point. So the internet still kind of has yuh.
I just started watching some of your videos and I have to correct you: Belize is part of America, as in the American continent...you meant to say :" The United States of America , The USA, or North America "...
I was once lost on the road for 14 hours because I took a wrong turn and gas stations didn't sell maps anymore. I eventually got where I was going using cardinal directions and a group of nice elderly men at a small town gas station. I now always have an atlas in my car.
I still enjoyed it but I was disappointed with you basically going on vacation where you can't use the internet and calling it a choice. When you got home to LA, the challenge actually started, could you do THAT part for a week?
If we didn’t use internet u would not have all those subscribers and if we watch this video we have to use internet 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
3:02 wow the water is so blue😍
Which island did you go to? Im gonna go
Wow you came to belize!
I remember once I turned off my phone... put it in my cupboard and decided to leave it for the whole day... it stayed there for almost 3 months, untouched XD I WAS ENJOYING THE SILENCE TO MUCH!!
All my corriculum is put on the internet, half my reading material and even the exams have to be done on my mac 😅 but will try not to be more than 2 hours on sosial media the next 5 days (also including youtube and netflix 🙈)
i want to see you guys eat strange food, from different countries
Can you do a challenge where you try to be vegan or vegetarian for a week
YOURE 5 SUBS AWAY FROM 1,000,000 SUBS!!!!!!! That is my mom in the pic
When she said that most people doesn’t know about the dinosaurs game when there isn’t any internet but in my class (and we’re 13-14 years) and all of us knows about it
3:28 Exactly -_-
I have been watching your videos for a while and I feel like they make me look at the world more and to think that little kids are attached to phones or tablets makes me sad and that little girl didn't know what goggle is that makes me so happy , I have a cousin and when he was 1 years old he was already on TVclip and Netflix watching Paw Patrol
I've Ben without my phone for a year now. It's been nice. I spend more quality time with family and friends. I spend more time outside. It's nice not having a phone to control my life.
Giving up the internet would be so hard for me because I don't know how I would survive without TVclip or Google
It is easy when you are in a beach😑😑try it in your room all day whatching boring tv shows and missing your bff and you can't talk to her cuz she is in another country
I'm going to try this. Good luck to me!
🇧🇿🇧🇿🇧🇿🇧🇿 Yass, whoop whoop! 🇧🇿🇧🇿🇧🇿🇧🇿 #Belizean
I would charge my phone farther away...but I have school and to wake up on time I have tried every alarm but only one works for me! It tracks your stage of sleep. It’s called sleep cycle. And my mom makes me out my phone away at dinner🤨
lol loved tat garret and janelle taking over part
i am going to try this in my school holidays
Ima do this but for five days starting Monday. No phone for school. No phone for TVclip or Netflix. ILL MISS SHANE DAWSONS JAKE PAUL SERIES. But it's ok because life is better that that
i love how you learn from these experiences rather than doing it to be stupid
the people who don't know the dinosaur minigame are blessed
When I went to the Philippines (my home country) for a month, I had no internet at all. It felt weird for a few days but after a while, I found it refreshing because I was able to explore places that I never went to which was nice.
I absolutely love the way you are using your social media platform as a self assessment blog and in the process planting that same seed amongst your viewers. I am loving seeing you grow through all these different and I want this so badly for myself. It’s truely inspiring ❤️
yay! garett and janelle!
I’m so here’s the thing I go to a camp every summer were you are not allowed to have electronics, it is one week and going is the smartest decision I have ever made.
AMA my bff!!!!!
You are so beautifull! Go watch my channel!!
I deleted my social media aside from TVclip and I'm the happiest I've been in a long time
Her sister Madeline is B E A U T I F U L 😍
where is this island and how do i get there???
Garrett and Janelle are hilarious. I would love to see more of them
I'm not surprised this video didn't do very well compared to your other ones.
is that said in a mean/hate way? if so, well...
*lock your doors tonight*
XD
Sometimes when I’m bored, I just take out the internet plug and play that dinosaur game 🦕
Just subscribed! I absolutely love your content. Keep it up!
I did this on my channel too!
Why u don’t have to us a map u can us a GPS
I have that striped one piece swimsuit omg yess
One of my friends, when we hang out, takes away our phones and puts them off to the side so we connect more. Its helped a lot
I turn off my phone when I eat a mealeith a friend or family member
That's my next year resolution 2019 no social media I just wanna live through reality not through a screen
Well we know Michelle doesn’t have any Snapchat streaks 😂
I only use internet at home or at work. It makes me sad when I'm out to dinner with someone and they're looking at their phone instead of talking to me. If that was my plan I would just eat by myself.
I'm so looking forward to adventures with Garrett and Janelle. #WedontneedMichelle
#adventureswithgarretandjanelle ❣loveee it💓
oh my goodness now I really want to go on a no internet retreat, maybe even no technology...? it just looks so amazing and unconnected yet connected to yourself and nature, I’m really considering going on one.
My phone broke one time and it took a week for the company to mail me a new one, also at the same time our cable internet suffered a malfunction. I got a lot of studying done but was also extremely bored. It wouldve been nicer if I couleve magically transported to Belize lol
Are you twins?! It’s like looking at a mirror image.
I have gone a month with no internet it was hard but I did it
In Canada we still sell maps in every gas station and places like home hardware and Canadian Tire. So strange how there were no maps at the gas station weirrdddd
Ohhh this was pretty cool! I would like to see more videos of tips on how to reduce the social media use little by little
It's nice to unplug from society once in a while. I like to go to GW and Jeff National forest (1.8 million acres of trees, rocks and wildlife) where there's no cell reception, no landline. You're completely cut off to go practice some bushcraft skills. Just me, my pack a Dutch oven and maybe some friends. Have to rely on nature and your own wilderness knowledge. But when I come back its SUCH culture shock!
Finished this video and now going to watch TV with my husband where I normally wouldn't because I am catching up on everything at night. Thanks for reminding me that there is still a world outside of my phone xx
