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 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!

Missed y’all! Thanks for all the love and support on our life update video 😊
-
I am just imagining the excitement of young Kara & Nate, who couldn’t ride a ferris wheel because it wasn’t in the budget, now riding in such immense luxury!!!! 😊❤️
-
I love the innocence in Kara asking “do you think we’re allowed to keep it?” talking about the pijamas, when it was a $9.500 dollar airplane ticket per person 😂😂😂
-
If they weren’t a part of the mile high club before this video, they definitely are now! 😂 That locking door must’ve been amazing
-
Normally I can not stand seeing content creators review these first class experiences but you two are so humble and loving. You know what's it like to live in dirt so it makes an experience like this seem magical ❤
-
I just love how genuine you're with your videos. Doesn't matter if it is 2016 or right now, you guys exude humility and gratefulness and embody the "living in the present moment" vibes, which is really what makes y'all stand out from other content creators! I love you and miss you guys!!!❤❤❤
-
I'm so Happy to see Kara smiling back to her normal self. You guys get all the rest you need in between videos, it's well worth the wait to see Kara giddy enjoying living life.
-
These types of ultra luxury experiences are not usually my favorite videos of yours (just more fun to be inspired to visit places and try things that are financially within reach) but the enthusiasm that both of you exude is incredible and we really get the sense of how amazing this experience is even after everything you've both done by now. You've come a long way from the ferris wheel :)

Kara - Talking: 20% Laughing uncontrollably: 80% 🤣

What a beautiful surprise this morning. The joy and excitement of Kara is so contagious. Thank you for taking us on this fabulous trip. Enjoy the rest of your down time. Hugs
-
Kara is so great with her enthusiasm for the little and big things. Her appreciation for cleanliness in their private bathroom hit so true. As far as these two have come, they are still the core beautiful humans from day 1. They deserve all good things. P.S. Their nieces are absolutely adorable.
-
As a person who has unfortunately never gotten to travel, I feel so alive in the moment with you guys traveling as if it’s me traveling with you guys around the world thank you for Creativity.❤
-
Loved this!! It’s awesome how you’re able to take it all in without any imposter syndrome at all!! Like hanging a $20 jacket in a $15000 suite and LOVING EVERY SECOND. You’re both such great examples of being humble but also, indulging and getting everything out of life! Thanks for sharing with us!

I’ve watched way too many YouTubers review The Residence with an air of pompous superiority, so it’s been a breath of fresh air to see my favourite TravelGeeks get as stupidly excited as I would, given the chance to experience this next level of First Class. I’d managed to convince myself that I didn’t need to experience this for myself, and then you two come along and ruin it all by reigniting my excitement 😬🤣 Welcome back to YouTube - I missed your videos over the last few weeks ❤
-
Kara and Nate = Pure joy. So much gratitude. Unending kindness. You guys make experiences like this fun and watchable. You don’t have a pompous bone in your body. You appreciate what you are getting to do and don’t take it for granted. Thank you! Can’t wait to see Abu Dhabi.
-
Thank you from a 70 year old lady who travels now vicariously through your adventures. I will never have the opportunity to go to the places you have been. You are the nicest couple online, so kind and sincere when even dealing with strangers. Thank you so very much for posting your video travels.
-
This should be called the Mile High Club
-
I love waking up to a Kara and Nate video!! So glad y’all are back
-
Just remembering back to Kara and Nates first flight to tokyo, ya'll really stayed the same while continuously giving us the same gold content that we love. Thats what we define as the best when we watch content! No matter if ur in the best flight seat or stranded in an island trying to survive, thank you for bringing us with you.
-
The fact that ya’ll turned a honeymoon into this level of a luxurious life experience is just incredible!! Well done!!
