Who are Kara and Nate?!
Watch our documentary here: • 100th COUNTRY DOCUMENTARY
Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married 2013 and were super “normal.” I was a teacher and Nate started a small printing business from the spare bedroom of our apartment.
We discovered the world of “travel hacking” while planning our honeymoon & became addicted ;)
So after 2 years of obsessively saving $35k and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016 for a “one year” trip around the world.
Our goal was to see as many places as possible before we ran out of money and went back home to “normal life.” We started this channel to share our experiences with friends and family, but quickly fell in love with living on the road and found a new passion for capturing our travels through video. So we did everything we could to keep going.
4 years later, we achieved our new goal of visiting 100 countries and all 7 continents. We had no plans to slow down, until 2020 forced us to ;) Which is when we bought a converted van to start exploring our own country for the first time!
After ~2 years of van life, we are back to full time international traveling! And now we are in our 9TH YEAR of finding the best adventures the world has to offer :)
We are incredibly grateful to be able to continue doing something we love every day. 😊🎥🌎 Thank you to everyone who has been a part of our journey!

My husband and I started van camping in 1974 with our two small children. For nine winters we went to Mexico, took seven years off while the kids were in high school, and just the two of us returned to Mexico again for the winter in 1991. Our van had a standing Coleman ice chest we built in, and a Coleman stove. Water was in jugs, and our porta potty was yogurt containers. Every winter we traveled all over Mexico and Guatemala and in 2004 we got a small traveler trailer because at 60 I wanted a bathroom. Our last trailer was a 23 foot and we ended up just staying the winter in one place in Mexico instead of traveling all around. We missed the convience of going places in the van, but enjoyed the life we had with friends we met there each year. March 2020 was our last trip, but we have wonderful Memories of almost forty years of traveling.

25:56 Kara running past Nate screaming ‘let’s go’ is the funniest thing EVER🤣🤣

I bought my LTi because of your first ER video, Spent 7 months in it. 3 months in Alaska, 2 months in Canada, 2 months in the US Rockies. In our first month in the LTi we ordered the SX. We will pick it up in May and plan to spend five years traveling throughout North, Central, and South America. Thanks for the inspirational videos. We have done many things you have and you help us build our bucket list.

You doing the flashbacks to your van experiences, it made me think of how you guys did the most with what you had. Now you have the freedom to do your dreams. The growth is beautiful to see and I just can not stress it enough.. ya'll deserve this.

The highlight of my weekend is watching your videos, and last week while watching my 6 year old neice, I found out it is the highlight of her weekends as well! I didn't even know she started watching your videos, I have been watching since 2019! 💕

The Earthroamer is a dream when you see it at the Overland shows, but to see all functionalities at work in these extreme conditions makes it all the more impressive. Kara and Nate portrayed perfectly all the fun you can have with this magnificent overland vehicle.

I love how Kara is like I am just going to add a few things and adds in like 20 more ingredients.😂 Keep doing what you guys want don't let anyone tell you otherwise. ❤

Do you think you guys would ever do a throw back video where you guys really work with a budget? I love to see your growth of your crazy challenges and luxury vacations! But I SO miss you’re really early travels where Nate really broke down the costs

I know there’s a lot of hustle behind the scenes and that this is their literal job, but man do Kara and Nate still manage to seem humble and lucky they get to experience all these cool adventures and happy to do so! I’m sure sometimes can be more challenging than others for them 😅 They’re the best!!
