I Gave Up The Internet For A Week

IT'S HERE!! We worked so hard on this video and it was SOOOO difficult of a challenge!! I learned SO much by giving up the internet for a week, and hope you enjoy. :) Where's the notif squad at?!?

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.

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

When I heard that little girl saying that she doesn't know what google is , I burst into tears as this was my childhood ... which I enjoyed and remember every day of it with the smile: playing outdoors all day long , running in park with my friends, feeding abandoned animals and building homes for them , knowing all families that lived in the building . I wish there was some limitations in place for kids using internet ...

What is the island called

😘

I actually went on a spontaneous road-trip with my mum. We had nowhere plan where to go, just booking a hotel wherever we liked it. We also didn’t use google maps, besides if we searched for a specific place, like a hotel. I was surprised how easy it was to find where we wanted to go. Our only information source was the radio, which was quite interesting because we went to swiss, france and spain and I just barely speak french but no spanish. I was so surprised how well it went and how many people we met. I would definitely recommend it to everyone! Just let go and the world will guide you ❤️

When I went to Ecuador for vacation i didn't have internet for 3 weeks

I just watched this video while eating dinner lmao

Damn, seeing the amount of effort she puts on her videos, makes me wonder why is she so underrated ?

one week... fart

belize is not an island..... just fyi

How does she not have a million subscribers yet?

Omg!!!!!!!!! Wow Belize is amazing should have seen the video before would have had loved to meet you!!! I’m from Belize too

Good job

Damn shes reading Ready Player One

150 emails in one week ? Casual

Just looking at the map gives me anxiety...😨

Ur very beautiful

that moment when you see the Game of Thrones poster in the background.

I know you hear it everyday but you are the most beautiful woman I have ever seen! It's not just your looks it's your attitude, the way you carry yourself and the positive vibes you give off. Your channel is great I'm glad I subscribed.

ive gon without my phone for 2 1/2 weeks before

Vegan for a month (not raw)

A FINE woman could never lose. As for the rest ,,,don't leave your internet ,then you are really SHUTOUT!!!!

that family is living my dream 😭 i always wanted to live sometime off without all these addictions in life.always wanted to live in a island with nature and simple people without worrying about..i don't know..without worrying about things that've tied ourselves from freedom?
sea and island vibes makes me so peaceful and calm
call me crazy !😅
nice video.

U r btfl without makeup

To be frank, Inlove your videos!

I’d throw my phone from the fucking atmosphere to go were she went and take my friends the internet is good if you use it in such good ways research communication to learn but now a days people waste there valuable time looking at stupid ass fights on world star or some dumb shit or memes or anything

Wooh...so next episode will be Garrett try the Victoria secret diet ?
I don't feel well, I need to lay down :|

I'm the only one who saw a crazy Hispanic pirate with a Mohican shooting a white prick?

Soooooo sexy😉😋

I vote Garrett takes over Michelle's job for a week.

I've been on the internet for 12+ hours a day, literally every single day for the past 8 years....and yet I think this challenge would be pretty easy for me, so long as I got to inform my friends of what I was doing beforehand so I'm not wracked with guilt over worrying them lol. (And so long as I can have my phone on me in case of an emergency, but I wouldn't check it...that'd be pretty easy since I only check it about once or twice a day.) I love being in nature and not seeing what feminists are complaining about for the week. It's nice. I'm glad you had a good time.

Meet with a professional Astrologer!

My phone gives me anxiety. I hate knowing that any person can contact me at any time, and once I've seen it I feel obligated to respond right away, as if they were right there in front of me. Even if I have no reason to anticipate bad news, an unexpected notification sound can literally make my chest squeeze. I don't like social media's nature of constant sharing and reciprocal validation. It feels distant, strange, and sometimes inauthentic. I keep my phone on silent and put away unless I'm a. listening to music, or b. expecting a call or in a text conversation with a real life friend or family member. I do like reddit, and having GPS, and of course, all the music I want everywhere, all the time. My phone-fear is especially bizarre to me because in real life I don't have a hint of social anxiety. I honestly wish I had a more relaxed relationship with my phone, but I'm not sure where to begin.

If I have other things to occupy my time I can happily go without the internet (apart from when needing directions haha), but if I don't have much to do and no one around to talk to I'll rely quite heavily on the internet. During term time it's a different story though, as a student you need the internet; most of the reading is online, you need to check several times a day for emails sent out by lecturers or the department, all work needs to be uploaded to the uni's intranet and the list goes on. I do wish education was a bit more analogue as it can feel like you're staring at a screen 24/7, whether you want to or not.

Happy Birthday

This is a Greate idea, I'll do that some times, I'll have to say it is really good for me, it doesn't have to be a week just a day help's already.

Experiment with a polyphasic sleep schedule for a week!!

But-
My Kpop

One thinks he/she can't do it, but once you do and get over the first 2-3 days your life improves a lot. As someone who works in front of the computer all day long (software developing) I don't even touch a computing device during my holiday.

I love you, Michelle, because you inspire me to better myself with your experiments :)

Good job!

🤗😘Sexy
Two million net worth

I would have called an uber. $100? Naaaaah

I'm so happy you were reading Ready Player One!!

My school has a screen free week

Great video and life lesson type deal, lol.

Your gorgeous!!!

Omg!! You went to Belize 🇧🇿🇧🇿😩. Where was I 😭😭 #thatsmyhome

Hey Michelle! I am currently trying to do this too! I started charging my phone in the kitchen and put my laptop away in the cupboard (I don't have to use it for my job like you though!). I'm finding it hard to do at the moment though because I'm staying at my aunt and uncle's house and don't have much to do so I'm using my laptop a lot again! It's definitely hard to completely stop using the internet! But I'm going to try and use it way less!

Just like anything in life, all in moderation.

Phantom buzzing.first time I’ve heard of this, but it’s 100% real.

great eyebrows

Does she look like Natalia Outlet

#150 E-Mails

This is honestly such a good idea, I went to my cousins and they had WiFi but no cell service, but I chose to not get on a lot and I just sat outside and took in the view, it was breathtaking and beautiful, I loved it

Madeline is way more beautiful than Michelle

Lmao watching this before bed

Why are you so pretty???😣😣😣😣 I'm jelly

Ah Belize 😍😍😍

I am 2 weeks now without social media like Facebook, Snapchat, Instagram, nothing but youtube and Hulu and it's been great! It's peaceful without all the drama and just focusing on myself! I highly recommend it.

Try to learn a different language

You should go on holiday in Belize more often 😊

dasddhfjgf teens literally do this sm whenever they get their phones taken

0:29 helloooo,it’s currently 7:29 a.m. sooooooo




Your not the only one honey

I wanna smell this girls butt...

u on crack use Google maps to get there

where exactly was this island???

Yea... I do not like not having my phone, I do not like being without internet. I like eating with my phone on. I do not take my phone for granted.

I went to China this summer. Because of the great firewall and the fact that I wasn’t using an international plan meant that I was nearly without internet for 2 weeks. I took a lot of photos and notes (journaling) on my phone and I couldn’t use internet unless I was in my hotel. I did not feel better without internet. I like the security of being able to look things up on my phone immediately. I also read books on my phone (ebooks).

I really liked this video! It was cool to see a little bit of the behind the scenes how you and your team makes videos. Also you should consider doing a triathlon series! That would be super dope. Keep up the great content, bb!
