We had NO IDEA how awesome Vancouver, Canada is! Great food, Asian influence, strong coffee, kind people, and today it was all topped off with beautiful fall weather! We spent the entire day biking around the city for the first time. We drove from our campsite in the middle of Vancouver to Stanley Island and drove along the beautiful coastline. Next we went to the Granville market for lunch and had a scary encounter in Chinatown. Lastly, we quickly checked out Gastown, then booked it home before the sunset on our bikes!

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. :)

[@funkymunky8787]

I'm sorry you hit the downtown Eastside, but trust me you were safe there; no one would've bothered you or your camera if you're not from there!!

[@rabbytca]

SEA BUS! you missed taking the Seabus from downtown back to the north shore.

[@JesseNinja321]

Mr. Nate and Mrs. Kara, I agree that Vancouver is the best Canadian destination to visit. I'm so glad you guys visited there because you can't imagine how beautiful Vancouver is, not to mention what is it like to visit or live there. Personally, I visited there last year with my family and it was like being in the filming locations. I would nominate this vlog. In conclusion, I want to wish you, Nate and Kara, a very good luck on your upcoming journey vlog. 😃😉👍

[@shampoo7]

IKR! Anytime one of my AirBnB guests that stay with me ask about Chinatown I roll my eyes and clinch my teeth. It's always conflicting for me to explain cause locals know avoid it but without trying to discourage my traveling guests because they always read about it and want to explore that area. If anyone who is coming here to Vancouver honestly my advice is to skip Chinatown altogether just put it out of your mind the DTES (Downtown East Side) is no place for tourists or even us local residents to wonder around in. There are far better places to explore and enjoy!

[@DanNak]

shampoo7 very interesting! can I ask why to avoid it? Just curious (I’m from melb Australia)

[@auv_guavs]

"We're going to Chinatown!" *Immediately knew you guys are gonna end up in East Hastings*

[@Dan-Martin]

LOL thought the same thing. Only bad thing I have to say about the city is that we have a huge drug addict problem. I live in Calgary now and my 1 week stay in Vancouver when I was visiting my folks, and I swear to you, I saw more people shooting up drugs in that 1week than the 5 years I’ve been living in Calgary.... and I live in downtown Calgary lol.

[@EliasBac]

@@Dan-Martin same man. I heard about it before I went. But damn. That was sad to see

[@abbyonyoutube]

I wish Chinatown did something like paint the curbs so that people could know that if they no longer see a painted curb, they should turn around. Vancouver's Chinatown is FAMOUSLY near-impossible to navigate without getting turned around at Main and Hastings, even for BC locals.

[@FromThePrairies]

Ha! You landed in East Hastings - yep, it’s sketchy but the drug addicts are pretty friendly! Chinatown isn’t really a thing anymore in Vancouver. Go to Richmond if that’s what you’re after.

[@erikstephens34]

I can vouch for this. Vancouver has the nicest drug addicts and homeless people I have ever seen. I've been to Vancouver a few times. I've parked my rental car with GPS in the car in some sketchy area's and never had a problem.

[@FromThePrairies]

Erik Stephens true! Got horribly lost a few years ago and it was a bottle piker with no teeth that noticed my confusion and got me pointed in the right direction back to my hotel.

[@davidm8925]

Yep, for sure.

they yelled at me once cause i had a camera with me. Heard from others that they had their cameras knocked out of their hands.

[@FromThePrairies]

@@oryday1133 well can you blame them? One hardly goes to East Haistings for the tourism. Folks who go there armed and ready with cameras are there for Poverty Porn. Talk about an invasion of privacy and classlessness on the part of the photographer.

East Hastings. You managed to find one of the top two sketchiest neighborhoods in Canada. You weren't in any danger, just not a place you want to hang around for very long. Looking forward to the rest of your travels in my home and native land.🇨🇦😁

[@siobhAAAAN101]

Hey guys! As someone who has grown up in Vancouver my entire life I am happy you got to experience the city on a nice sunny day. It truly is a wonderful place filled with a great community of people. But yes, we do have some lower income areas that you seemed to stumble apon. Vancouver's DTES (downtown east side) is one of the largest strips of poverty in all of north america. However it is a functioning community that has a relatively low crime rate and a strong sense of family. The reason for this area is largely due to other areas in Canada simply being too cold for homeless people to survive, therefore Vancouver's climate makes it somewhat livable. Just wanted to give a bit of background on the area, which I know can be a shock to tourists! Happy you got to visit this wonderful part of Canada.

My husband and I just left Vancouver this morning and your video popped up lol! We've been there all week and fell in love with this city!

[@robatsea2009]

Knowing the distances involved between the north shore and Granville Island I'm impressed with how much ground you covered by bicycle in a few hours and still allowed time to stop for photos & videos. I'm also glad your visit coincided with the best part of the fall weather! Granville Island used to pure industry for the bulk of the 20th century, and when it was revitalized to what you see now it found a much appreciated second purpose that helped facilitate False Creek being cleaned up. There are occasions now when whales even venture into those waters. As for the Chinatown experience you likely didn't see the more interesting parts of Old Chinatown (as mentioned by others Richmond has surpassed this now) but it does have plenty of history. Chinatown and Gastown are separated by the downtown east side, which as you perhaps experienced does have an abundance of addicts, dealers, and street people coping with mental health issues. It's the poorest neighborhood in one of the wealthiest cities, but again as noted that doesn't mean there isn't an abundance of very kind and decent people there too. You'll have to make it back one day for a longer visit and to try some different food!

[@yichythegoat]

I live in Vancouver, and I'm watching the Granville Island part, and I'm going crazy over the fact that they didn't go to Lee's donuts XD

I was wondering if they goofed our it was actually a sketchy area. Thanks.

[@Vancouver_Dan]

There are many other Asian hubs in the Vancouver area - including some of the best Chinese restaurants in North America in Richmond, BC. Chinatown has history but is too close to the downtown eastside - one of Canada's most dysfunctional areas.

[@thenotsoguitarguy9429]

I lived in metro Van for a couple of years. It was a dope little neighborhood just north of Hastings, just inside Burnaby. Hastings was pretty much my main route into the city. I was warned against spending much time off Hastings, especially around the east side, when I first got to town. I never had an issue, though. Believe me when I tell you that the sketchier parts of Vancouver are head and shoulders beyond safer than some of the neighborhoods in Atlanta I've lived in. Seriously, with some of the third world countries these two have waltzed through blissfully, I somehow highly doubt Chinatown is one of the sketchier areas they've been to. Also, the classic chinese garden is dope as AF.

First thing I do after i land is go to Stanley Park, one of my favourite places in the country. And it sounds like on the way to Chinatown you rode though the Eastside. I remember visiting a friend and he walked me through there once when I visited and I was complaining about my life to give me some perspective--I have seen place like that in the US and Europe, never anyplace like that in Canada before.

Canadian here! Just found your videos a few weeks ago but now am binging them like mad and am very excited to watch your Canadian road trip! Not sure if you're planning on visiting more places in Canada, but I'm from a lesser known city called Saskatoon in the province of Saskatchewan. We have a lot of awesome things to do here, though we tend to get overlooked in favour of places like Calgary, Toronto, Montreal etc (its the curse of living in a such an awesomely huge and diverse country,) so if you are ever in my neck of the woods let me know! Id love to show you guys around!

Sriram Srinivasan thanks! Me too!

[@heronimousbrapson863]

I grew up in Vancouver, but now live near Calgary, so am very familiar with these places. You picked good weather for Vancouver. In the winter especially, it can be overcast and rainy. It's climate is not typical of most of the rest of Canada.

[@Lil58original]

I love the videos so much and now I got my husband watching your video as well congratulation on 400k 🥳

[@nschink]

I’m so proud of you two- when I started following you, I think there were about 9k subscribers and you were just gearing up to do EBC...This March I’m finally doing EBC too, and I never would have discovered it without you, so thanks for all your hard work and can’t wait to see what’s in store for 2019 :)

[@KaraandNate]

That is awesome! Happy trekking!!!! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@ToriMcAllister]

Congrats on 400k! As far as I'm concerned, y'all deserve 1mil. You're literally the most likable and relatable couple I've found on KZbin

[@Mindycrz49]

So, I have been binge watching you guys for a few months now (at work) and I absolutely enjoy watching the two of you. It's just so nice to see how excited and grateful you guys are when you reach a certain amount of subscribers. It's cool to be seeing this video from 2018 and seeing now that you have 1.62 Million!!! WOW!! Keep up the amazing work you guys are doing. Stay Safe. Peace.

[@wizardmix]

HA! I already won a WANDRD backpack at a convention they were at. They are a great company and it’s my favorite travel backpack BY FAR and I say that as a person who designs bags. Good luck to the person who gets it :)

[@FindingtheEphemeral]

Congratulations and very well deserved! I've been following you for a long time now and have watched your channel and both of you grow as filmographers, and it's just been a wonderful thing to see. I can't wait to see what's next!

[@jphanks]

When I first flew to Vancouver, a local on my flight said "Welcome to Hongcouver!"

[@valv4008]

Ahhh Hollywood west! So much of the movies we watch are made in Canada 🇨🇦! Glad you enjoyed this city in our country, it’s one of many beautiful places here!
