Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the travel bug! We started “travel hacking” and taking more trips together and finally decided we wanted to travel for one year. After 2 years of saving $ and travel hacking over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016. We started this KZbin channel to share our experiences with friends and family, then decided we really liked vlogging and traveling. So we extended our 1 year trip to THREE years :) Now we have a goal of traveling to 100 countries before 2020! We are incredibly thankful to do something we love every day. :)

[@meghanf2012]

That parking job was impressive! He can park a hot air balloon better than I can my car! Haha

[@kurdesenjack5583]

Proficiency 💪🔥

[@danjetakeci7541]

meghanf2012 In case of any air accident, what are the chances for people to survive? I’d love to a lot, but i’m scared to jump on it too...

[@verenakremer6748]

@@danjetakeci7541 might be a bit late, but here you are: Data from 2022 provided by the National Transportation Safety Board shows 775 hot air balloon accidents on record in the United States since 1964, total. Only 70 involved fatalities. [source: BBC]

[@moanica]

He landed ON the trailer! That balloon captain (I think that's right) was the best! And what views -- another one added to my bucket list!

[@KaraandNate]

How insane is that?!

[@starrcrissy7220]

😂 @ Balloon Captain.. You Might be right tho! Lol! And yes, he showed pure skills landing that balloon.

[@savsav8553]

Epic skills, he was more of a ‘balloon whisperer’ lol

[@sanalonyedi]

But every balloon captain do the same in Cappadocia :)

[@diannewi]

I've been watching your videos for a while. This is by far the most exciting, colorful, memorable experience you've documented. I've been to Istanbul but didn't have time for Cappadocia, guess I need another trip...

[@okhanuludag]

U are welcome

[@rud7967]

You could check for good foods "gaziantep" then for mix culture, religion "mardin" also you should go to blacksea side rize and trabzon. Why people love turkey. There is a mix all culture things

[@JennyBrett]

Every day!?!?! WOW that's amazing....talk about an epic sunrise!

[@KaraandNate]

Right! The next morning was really gray and cloudy out so we were extra thankful for that bright orange sun!🌞

Actually it depends on the weather. If it is too windy, they don't do it. For example november to march is not the best time.

[@emreaydnl8792]

I think Cappadocia is the most magical places in the world

[@mandylaplante1473]

First time i went out of the country was to go in Turkey... I love this country ❤ wanted to thank you guys, i always had that dream to travel... and yesterday i gave my notice because i'm going to follow that dream for the next 6 months. 🗺✈❤

[@Raweeha18]

Mandy Laplante that’s phenomenal! Wishing you safe travels ✈️

[@starrcrissy7220]

You Go Girl!! Safe Travelling!!!

I’ve wanted to do this for years, guys, but now that I saw your video, I’m doing it as soon as possible! Super inspiring stuff, thanksss 🙏🔥❤️

[@sandeep_bhat]

Now I know where to try the Hot Air balloons. You guys are awesome :)

[@rajeevgulrajani224]

One of the best rides I have ever had. This reminded me the time I spent in cappadocia. Best 3 days spent ever.

So BEAUTIFUL. Hot air balloons are among my favorite things and your pilot was a master. The landscape is breathtaking. Thank you for taking us along.

[@sherillfranke1846]

This is my first comment on a vlog ever...but this was the best vlog I have watched. The joy you shared is contagious! Just added to my bucket list for 2019!!! Keep up the great work guys...love your vlog.

[@KaraandNate]

I am very happy you decided to comment on our vlog! Glad you enjoyed it 😁💜

[@doubleplay4]

Cappadochia is truly a magical place and ballon ride should be a bucket list item for everybody.

[@starrcrissy7220]

You two deserve an Award or something.. My Goodness! Spectacular!!!

[@brettcharsley3142]

wow that was fantastic.I was never thinking of travelling to Turkey but now after watching this it is on my bucket list for 2019

[@doubleplay4]

You should. Don't listen to naysayers. Truly one of the best countries in the World to experience.

[@KaraandNate]

Woohoo do it!!

[@MilDarkAngel]

I've never been so exited about a video!! So beautiful...and great job at editing and making it magical as always!!

[@inkjob12]

That was AMAZING !!! Talk about nailing the landing ! So beautiful. I had to laugh when Kara said we are up at 4am...my alarm goes off at 4:30am every day so I can get out on the trail for my EBC training runs and hikes.....so loved this video...LOL

[@KaraandNate]

Wow Randy! That is commitment! Good for you!!!! Your legs and lungs will thank you on the trek 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 it’s getting sooo close!!! 😁

[@inkjob12]

Thanks Kara and Nate...10 hilly miles this morning....Im pooped !

[@amrbayomi5330]

this was the video that convinced me to get a ticket to Turkey and absolutely enjoyed my time there.

[@saraleeann9343]

The landscape is so beautiful and unique. No drone required for those views! ;)

[@jordynszilagy7005]

this looks absolutely amazing! i can’t imagine how beautiful it must have been watching the sun rise!

[@JustCallMeAnnie]

That’s amazing that this happens every day!!

[@KaraandNate]

RIGHT?! This company was one of the first (first or second?) ones to start the balloon business here in the early 90s, and now it's the biggest!!!

[@JustCallMeAnnie]

Kara and Nate CRAZY! And that view! Woh.

[@ashfaqrahman2795]

Doing something that you love the most with someone you love the most. That's the best possible way to live a life.

[@explorewithboo]

Feel like im riding with you guys

[@KaraandNate]

That's what we like to hear! :)

[@stuartofblyth]

+ Boo Fermin Recluta That's what Kara and Nate are good at - taking us along whatever they're doing.

[@explorewithboo]

Ya really love this couple vlogger..

[@eileentanboonkhim6149]

These places are the reason why I love travel and why I choose to live!

[@audreybrown5901]

Mind blown!!! You captured such a sublime experience so beautifully! Well done!

[@kristinajaimes3729]

Those shots were on point! One of the best so far! Yall are awesome!

[@JustCallMeAnnie]

LOVE that the ride ends with champagne 🍾 🥂

[@KaraandNate]

It's a great touch😉

[@alsazlyahmed6699]

Why do not you answer my question

[@khalidmkm6264]

لشاذلي احمد helllo y arab friend which country are you from? or are you refugee?

[@JustCallMeAnnie]

What question? 🙂الشاذلي احمد

[@ggoddkkiller1342]

I guess he is angry because the ride ends with champagne in a Muslim country! Turkey isn't one of your sharia countries arab friend and everybody free to drink what ever they want. You don't like champagne then drink fruit juice that's why there was fruit juice on the table next to champagne...

[@mauriemt6064]

Loved this video. My wife and I are in our late sixties and have never flown in a hot air ballon. Must get to it while we can still climb in the gondola. 🤓😜

[@marib6954]

Never too late to experience! You are always welcomed to Turkey!

[@hannahdebuhr9301]

Made your 500th like! This is my favorite video of yours yet!!! Sharing with several people. Can’t wait to go one day soon! 😍

[@KaraandNate]

Awww thanks Hannah!!! :)

[@margretrand8769]

Wow beautiful! These shots are absolutely incredible, you captured this very well!

[@edwindaapsari3724]

I love the video it really brings back the memory of my vacation in June! I took my parents in a balloon ride and it was the most amazing experience I’ve ever had the most beautiful scenery ever! And my balloon also landed on the truck!

[@chandanadas7860]

Absolutely Incredible footage. 100% worth it. Such great scenery. Just wowwwww.thanku both of you giving us such great experience.

[@petermcclung9730]

So glad you did this! Just found out that as I get older I can’t pull off these type of “height” events without major freak outs. Ha ha. Glad I could experience it through you all!

[@GD-bm1bu]

Even it's amazing watching from the hills when sunrise

[@clairetomtravel4328]

That hot air balloon guy is such a joker! Loved him! So close to 300k subs guys!

[@KaraandNate]

He made it super fun! And OMG I KNOW CRAZY!!!!!

[@annikenkrogh8225]

What did you pay for the hot air balongs? :)

[@AndrejSpilevoj]

I love your blogs. How do you get your sound so perfect like if there was a man recording it with a boom mic next to you. Really impressive quality.

[@heathershobe3694]

Amazing!! That landscape is like nothing else! You had such a great tour guide/pilot. Hope y’all got a good nap after that😉 Stay you 😘

[@KaraandNate]

Thanks Heather :) He was awesome!

[@CikFaaa]

Tried it 2017 and indeed worth every penny! Still have those memories fresh. How I miss Turkey and Cappadocia especially!

[@BeezeKillerBee]

Its funny that when I watch this i'm like this looks amazing. Then I realize that I did do it a few years ago. Happy you enjoyed it.

[@LouiseAuger]

That landing was something else! The only time I’ve gone in a balloon we went over sideways like you in Dubai! Stunning footage 😀

[@tomau5799]

What an awesome experience! Love you guys.

[@mayurbakutra7197]

best ever vlog... i see it from the beginning... love it..

[@riteshsharma1833]

[@drsaisingh5548]

Looks like I need another vacation to Turkey for these awesome experiences

[@KaraandNate]

Haha the adventures never end here!!

[@tierraharris8310]

So excited to see you at TravelCon!!! You two inspire me!!!

[@KaraandNate]

Aw yay see you there!!!

[@garmah92]

Last year I visited all parts of Turkey except Cappadocia unfortunately. Now I goign back specifically to get on the air balloons. Your videos are truly inspirational, KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!

[@KaraandNate]

Awesome! Have fun! ❤️

[@emreerden5346]

Such a unique and maybe one most alienated place on earth

[@irishwarrior35]

So freaking beautiful....Thank you for sharing I can not get enough of your journeys

[@kattoo99]

I've decided, I'm gonna go to Cappadocia on my next vacation.

[@KaraandNate]

Great decision!!! :)

[@jinalchheda7098]

No words to express! Just wow! Amazing editing kara, ur editing made it more beautiful.

[@LeoFtravels]

This is Awesome, I just got back from Cappadocia 😍🇹🇷

[@CHOMPINGCHAMPION]

Beautiful. Beautifully shot and a very nice episode.

[@farkenmayhem6951]

What an amazing perspective from the air, it looked incredible. I wonder if you are going to visit one of the underground cities while you're in Cappadocia? We visited one that went 8 levels down, although we were only allowed down 4 levels. They used to be able to live underground for up to six months. They were built in some century BC and at some later point Christians used them to hide from the Romans.

[@reohtz4878]

You two are just the best!!!

[@medwards1391]

Wowowowow! Thanks for warming my heart with that. Love you guys!

[@KaraandNate]

❤️🌞

[@trixcx]

You guys are one of the few KZbinrs that read and reply to comments. I think u r reading it to see if there are any mistakes☺. Also one of the best vloggers.

[@KaraandNate]

Hahaha that is definitely one of the helpful things about the comments section... I really enjoy all the kind people in the world ❤️😁

[@trixcx]

@@KaraandNate you both are also very kind to reply to these comments and u both have a lot of chemistry btw both of you. I think that's what helps you to put such awesome videos

[@davidmajor4484]

Beautiful country Turkish music during balloon ride would be a plus

[@robinsparkles4046]

1:02 that scene was so cool

[@김진일-w4t]

I had never heard of "fairy chimneys", but now, I have to see them! Thanks for sharing.

[@tinatopak]

Still one of my best experience in Turkey! Loved the vibe there so much.

[@jimgreen3966]

Nate, you're right! Your pilot is amazing! My apologies on my correction yesterday of your pronunciation of the city. It must be that they've changed it over there, because it's shown in my dictionary as cap-uh-DOE-shuh, and that's the way I've always heard it. What convinced me of my error was when the pilot pronounced it.

[@ngoctranbao3628]

Love you, you guys are my inspiration, Ive always wanted to travel the world like you guys❤️❤️

[@KaraandNate]

❤

[@mholbrook]

Another amazing vlog. Unbelievably beautiful.

[@cruisingthrulifewithcindyh4483]

I have to thank you both for what you do and your videos you share. I started a KZbin channel for cruise travel(I love) the videos r beyond horrible Haha (mainly just me talking) but I'm going on a cruise (my 20th) which I will TRY to video. Your videos and travels help me to escape my worries and warm my heart! My daughter has stage 3 breast cancer (shes only 31) during her chemo days following her mastectomy wed watch them while the bags go thru her port and for a short time she dreams of travel and adventure! It's now progressed :-( so ... because of you both she can travel and me.. her mom will soon when I catch a break will enroll in your video course so I can put together her life journey (as well as my cruise travels for her and her children to keep for the day we dread.. when the Lord takes her home! Thank you again and if you ever think to maybe say hi to her her name is kelly .. this video made her cry. She asked me.. when I go to heaven I hope I pass the balloons... again.. so many thanks you touch so many for so many reasons. Not just for pure travel but you give happiness and life to those who are I'll! You guys are amazing!!!!!

[@soumipm5170]

[@khaleefax9553]

*Our best part of Cappadocia trip was shopping 100% pure fresh organic fruits from the small flea market in front of the mosque.* *The vendors were honest people from the surrounding villages, and they would sell you the best item with the lowest price without the greed of ripping you off. The home grown fruits tasted INCREDIBLY AWESOME!*

[@redgarcia1427]

That was a beautiful video!!✌🙏
