Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the #travel bug! We started “travel hacking” & finally decided we wanted to go travel for one year. After 2 years of saving $ and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016. We started this #travelvlog to share our experiences with friends and family, then decided we really liked vlogging and traveling, and we didn’t want to stop after just one year! After achieving our new goal of 100 countries and then all 7 continents (check out our documentary here: • 100th COUNTRY DOCUMENTARY , we had no plans to slow down, until 2020 decided to force us to ;) which is when we bought a converted Sprinter van to start exploring our own country for the first time. #Vanlife 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. 😊🎥🌎

I would hope so! Have you looked up how much entry costs !!!!

@@Nikkeezi My thoughts exactly! Almost $12K. And why is a dual entry more than double a single entry? I would love to do this, but I can hike the Appalachian Trail for free.

It took me 3 years to climb the height of Mt. Everest, according to my Fitbit. I'm working on my second climb. I'm hoping to make it somewhere in between 24 hours and 3 years this time. I'm inspired by this video. Today I bought a set of walking sticks and hiked a hill nearby. Kara and Nate's climbs were 1750 feet in an hour. I made 500 feet in an hour, but only part of the hike was steep. I need to find bigger hills and get to work.

[@user-lz5vh9bb5w]

How are you doing with the progress towards Mt. Everest? :)

[@kenfreeman8888]

@@user-lz5vh9bb5w The highest hill near me is around 700 feet up, so I'll have to climb it over 40 times. I'm probably around 1/5 there since the last time I hit 29,000 feet elevation total. And I just got the "Pole to Pole" badge -- walking 12,500 miles in the years since I've had a Fitbit: the distance from the North Pole to the South Pole. It makes for a fun game to have these targets to reach while enjoying my walks.

I had tears in my eyes when you completed the challenge and Kara was getting emotional. It is funny how close you can feel to people that you've never met in real life and how proud you can feel of them for pushing themselves so that they find out how strong they really are. Nate mentioned the mountain biking in Colorado as the first time attempting something that he didn't feel he could finish but I think Kara also found that she was also capable of so much more than she thought during that challenge; driving the van on her on and being an amazing support system for Nate by taking care of EVERYTHING else so that he could achieve something amazing. Most boundaries are self-imposed and you both are so inspirational and constantly show all of us what incredible experiences lie just on the other side of those supposed boundaries.

"Future me loves past pain" It's not perfect but I get what you mean and I have that same feeling when I look back at the things that I have accomplished even though they seemed impossible at the time... And to be fair I have also never climbed mount Everest in a monsoon. Great work guys!

And yay for Nate's waffles! Colleen "Worlds Best Hype Girl" was hilarious! She seems like so much fun! Hey, a big bonus, since you're burning so many calories with that hiking, those snacks you get to try won't stick to your butts, lol. That tub of Ben and Jerry's and the disco gondola looked so good. I adore the hype and party vibe of the summit each time you make it to the top. The music and the fun atmosphere and the volunteers cheering you on seems like a good way to achieve that little extra boost. "Future me loves past pain" is a great mantra, just lets you remember that when this is all over, you will remember the amazing memories and experiences and achievements more than the exhaustion it took to get there. I will try this when I'm feeling down. I am so proud of both of you for finishing this entire trek together, you deserve the hell out of that red carpet and those red hats!

I've gotten a lot of negative words thrown at me, especially since I've began walking unassisted, because I do not "look" sick, whatever that look is supposed to be.. people just assume I am lazy and taking advantage while I am fighting my own immune system to keep myself alive.

I teared up when I saw Kara crying at the finish. UGH! You guys are warriors! What an amazing video to post after you both won the KZbin Influencer award. ❤️❤️❤️ It can only get better from here on out. Great job, Kara and Nate! Now you can sleep and recover. Enjoy the best sleep ever. It is always the best after exhaustion. xxx Sweet dreams.

Yay!! I have been binge watching your videos as of late. Kara is such a beautiful soul and Nate is so knowledgeable about so many things, he would definitely be my first pick to travel the world with.

Congratulations on completing the event! You both kicked so much butt in doing so!

[@bullzaiprod]

Just WOW... I had tears in my eyes when you got on the top for the last time. So inspiring. Love you guys! Don't stop. I've been following you for several weeks now, and always looking forward for your next story! Hugs! (Gonna get a 170 Sprinter 4x4 next January for Van Conversion. That's how I got to your KZbin channel.)

"This is the best pretzel I've ever eaten. This is the best day of my entire life." Love that you're still experiencing so many "best evers"!

[@drolllindsay]

One of things I love about them too!

[@lindawoody8501]

Congratulations and well-done! You both are amazing! Thanks for bringing us along virtually.

[@jonnitin]

Love love love all the fun happy moments you share! Also too now when I ski at Stratton I'll never look at Standard (the ski trail you hiked) the same way again. Great work!! I will still say though, please come back to New England again at some point. Our states may be small, but there is so much fun and interesting stuff to see and do around here!

[@nicolebroaddus4225]

Congratulations Kara and Nate, you guys did it. I'm so happy when I wake up on Sunday you guys are the first vlog I watch to start my day. Good luck on your next adventure. Much love to you guys.

[@martinjohnson5588]

Congratulations to you both! I was with Kara the whole way “Don’t sit down, you won’t get back up!” Love the enthusiasm and excitement the whole way!

[@karenwillson1180]

I absolutely cried along with Kara as I watched you both finish this epic event ❤️ next year I turn 50 and I wanted to do something great for this milestone age. I believe I want to sign up and try this event. Way to go on finishing!!!

[@davidstopher7020]

This is quite a challenge Nate and Kara. I have been following your adventures for a while and enjoying them. Proud of you for this one. It reminds me of my struggles in military bootcamp many years ago. Finishing that was probably one of the major accomplishments and happiest moments of my life!

[@AllYouNeedIsLove601]

Your endurance and determination to complete a mission, project or competition is truly inspirational. Well done you two! You’re awesome! 🏆🥇🏅

[@christinechadsey6414]

You are both amazing. I know I could never do what you have done and your enthusiasm for life keeps me going in my lowest points.

[@themplar]

This was absolutely awesome. So inspiring! So glad 2021 introduced me to this channel

[@Roadmap2Adventures]

Wow top 10 out of 250 people! That’s amazing! Congratulations! You guys are so inspiring. Those volunteers were fantastic! What an adventure! You guys are always taking on such impressive challenges.

[@KeepGoingPlaces]

Congrats on the Top 10 finish, y’all! And, y’all did it while filming, which is so much extra effort. Favorite moment was Kara asking ‘What do we do now?’ at the final summit. Got a good chuckle from that one!

[@meganleannshields]

Y’all are incredible the fact that you can do stuff like this amazes me! I strive to have not only a life like yours but a relationship! Y’all are goals in so many ways, also the fact y’all are from Nashville makes me so happy I lived there for 12 years now I live in the upper peninsula of Michigan.... quite the change but it’s beautiful! This should be y’all’s next stop I have tons of places y’all need to go!

[@Toddzilla3113]

Nate nailed it "Nothing great comes without pain! This looks like an amazing event with huge support from the volunteers. I want to be a part of this event in the future, and feel those positive vibes. Super inspired! Love you guys

[@deepthoughtswithjessica]

First lap would have also been my last, lol. You guys are the real MVPs!
