Who are Kara and Nate?!

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” & became obsessed. 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 home to “normal life.” We started this travel vlog to share our experiences with friends and family, but quickly fell in love with this lifestyle and 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. Van life was a major adjustment and so different than flying every week like we were used to, but we are incredibly thankful to be able to continue doing something we love every day. 😊🎥🌎

This channel is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re going to get, but you know each and every video is going to be a tasty delight ❤

[Mystikphobe]

“You never know what you’re gonna get on this channel so thanks for sticking around” little do you guys know that’s exactly why we stick around it’s always a different adventure but our same favorite two people !

[SailingLaVagabonde]

What a banger vid guys 🙌🏼 (I expect nothing less from you two) Thanks so much for having us onboard.
Just having some classic sailing content creator upload issues. Video going live soon!!! Giddy up internet 🐎

[eamonandbec]

This solar powered yacht looks EPIC! Mind if we hop on board?!? 😉

[charleswoolsey]

Darn, I just love your videos. Whether you’re silently camping in Tennessee or silently-cruising the Mediterranean, and all the wonderful people, points and places in between, you two are definitely crushing it. Humble and kind.

[emma.grace..]

I found this channel when they were in their van life and I am fully committed to doing the same in a couple of years! I wanna thank Kara, Nate, Eamon, Bec, Riley, and Elena for all the inspiration!! ❤

[KaraandNate]

Soooo thoughts on boat life? Next chapter for us maybe?👀

[HELLOitsME]

We never know what kind of videos you guys will throw at us but we all know, no matter what it is it’s always so fun to join alongside every adventure!!! ❤ We love Riley and Elayna 😊

[Delzak]

Sailing La Vagabonde x Kara and Nate always makes the best crossover episodes.

[ChantelCordeiro]

I love Kara's tours and showing us all around where ever they're staying.

[christieo]

Can I just say how much I love who you all are as people? From the way Nate wakes Kara up with a morning kiss and coffee to the way that Kara makes meals for everyone onboard to make your guests feel comfortable. ❤

[travelerlost]

I think part of the reason I enjoy Kara & Nate is because of how varied your content is, I never know what crazy stunt you guys will try next. It is refreshing and fun to watch.

[kevinphillips]

Thanks! For the entertainment, for the inspiration to travel, and for just being you guys!

[AmSpam]

I’ve now been watching for 5 years and that seems crazy! It’s been incredible watching y’all go through life and throughly enjoying every minute of it! Thank you for the awesome content 🥰🥹

[susangeorge]

I found this channel during Covid, and I binged watched so many to catch up. I live vicariously through Kara and Nate, looking for to your next adventure.

[Holasoykarla]

Hearing Kara talking about how worried she was for a second about how cold the water could be… after watching her do two polar plunges like a boss cracks me up lol 😂

[robbededecker]

kara, the secret to literally any pasta sauce is the cooking water, it makes the sauce bind because of the starch in it, so as a little tip, always keep the cooking water or at least a cup of it!! btw, loved the video!

[ItsMeNanaD]

“The boat parking lot”. And this is why we love Kara.

[antcampo]

I found this channel due to them living in their van, and enjoy those videos. Now I just can't get enough of these travel videos ♥️

[BelindaS]

Kara is looking so fit and healthy. The good life is showing. Thanks for sharing your journey.
