RVing New Zealand | Christchurch to Mt. Cook

[@bethanylindsey2735]

Little did they know they'd have a mobile home of their own only 4 years later!!

[@allietogni277]

"My job is to bring everybody right back down to reality..." 😁 priceless

[@carolinebailey2943]

Hahahah Jordan's explanation of the admirals club at the end made me laugh out loud. So fun they are there with y'all!

[@KaraandNate]

+Caroline Bailey haha he earned it the hard way. I think he's jealous of our travel hacking lol

[@PlanesTrainsEverything]

New Zealand is soooo beautiful. I regard myself as an honorary kiwi having worked for their national airline for 5 years. I wanna go back!!

[@WhakataneMaori]

The wheels lock on the trolleys once it gets out of a particular area of the car park....essentially to stop people from stealing them!

[@Dovenpeis]

That sounds more expensive than letting people steal the trolleys.

[@cristintucker1783]

I've seen this before too, once you leave the store parking area the wheels lock to prevent theft.

[@Logcly]

Same at some places here in Canada

[@elizabethhardin5925]

Normally there is a warning sign in carts that lock. Lol!

[@marjan6008]

@@Dovenpeis A trolley's costs about $250,- each I think it's worth the money to prevent stealing

[@tantra7]

This vlog give me the nicest feeling-you all just click-Jordan & Julianne looks like such happy-go-lucky people-they just give you a nice feeling ...then the landscape & the the filters that you used for it looked so dreamy-making you want to go & experience this trip for yourself-thank you

[@REDRAGON12345]

This is the first glimpse we get of K&N's van life :D

[@destinsansbury4992]

Haha honestly if Kara’s happy I’m happy.

[@alyssapadgett2302]

Y'all need to do a coffee across the world vlog at the end of the trip. SO MANY COFFEE SHOTS! :)

[@KaraandNate]

+Alyssa Padgett That's a great idea! We might just have to :)

[@roschtravelable]

I have been following this vlog for a year now and have been loving it and because of the pandemic iCame across this channel’s Documentary and loved how they reminisced on their first few vlogs which made me curious and decided to binge watch it from the very start. I looooove these friendship vlogs and it certainly IS friendship goals - iHope you make more friendship vlogs❣️❣️❣️

[@tumatauenga6433]

So crazy seeing my city from 4 years ago... seeing the motorway in its early days of development to what it is now 🤯 and all the cones in town😂

[@sophiebarnes2087]

I know right! Even showing the city. It's developed so much since

[@timbromby1547]

I’m from NZ. Glad you enjoyed your visit. Just found your blog and I’m slowly working my way through them. I love your pronunciation of Maori place names. Made my day. Next time your in Christchurch you should go and visit some of the areas damaged by the 2011 earthquakes. Hope you come back soon. 😀

[@helenesmith590]

Did you not notice that they stayed at the Heritage Hotel in Cathedral Square? Pretty sure they would have seen the damaged cathedral.. Which is probably the most iconic earthquake damage to see lol

[@jeffr7821]

So glad to see Julianne and Jordan join you! I know y'all are having a blast!!!

[@KaraandNate]

+Jeff Rice it's been amazing! They left this morning and it was really sad to see them go :(

[@mariemoss2475]

The best way to eat Tim Tams is to take a small bite off each end, dunk it into your Tea or coffee (make sure its not too hot) and like a straw suck up the liquid, then stuff the whole thing in your mouth . . . the warm tea/coffee melts the chocolate and its a taste explosion !!! So awesome

[@michellemunn7959]

Tim tam slam! I am from Canada and heard about these from John Barrowman at a comic Con video!!!

[@michae8jackson378]

I'm so thankful that you guys stop and smell the roses! Such beautiful scenery!

[@KaraandNate]

+Michael Jackson me too :) I know!!!

[@madeinaotearoanz]

Kara and Nate Gutted you've already been to my home country! Still catching up on all your vlogs 😊

[@joshuacribb2795]

[@campingcarjoa]

I feel like I'm studying up for my upcoming trip :)

[@KaraandNate]

+CampingCarJoa best studying ever?! :)

[@helenesmith590]

I live in North Canterbury which is just out of Christchurch. You showcased our beautiful country so well! I hope you enjoyed your stay 😊 love watching your videos 👍

[@hotgusta]

[@shawnaytaylor198]

New Zealand looks beautiful so far! So jealous of all your travels! I'm glad you were able to have your friends join oh for this leg of your travelling journey. Can't wait to see more! Love you guys!

[@KaraandNate]

[@shawnaytaylor198]

+Kara and Nate Yeah! I am so happy you guys are enjoying yourselves! And thank you for filming most things that happen in your day! I really enjoy watching you guys. Definitely one of my new favourite channels on KZbin. Also, thanks for replying! I always love hearing from you!

[@hcmcjb]

Love Kara and Nate. Love your friends! Thanks for bringing us all on you journey!

[@KaraandNate]

+hcmcjb thanks :)

[@crabbisk9767]

Nate, Kara - tell me you did not just time the snares of the beat to the skipping rocks PERFECTLY at 10:22? These guys are putting Casey Neistat's editing skills to SHAME. Don't think I don't notice these things because I do and I appreciate it.

[@KaraandNate]

+Crab Bisk hahaha wow that is an amazing compliment!!! thanks for noticing ;)

[@crabbisk9767]

+Kara and Nate It must be Kara's singing abilities - it's relevant to counting bars and being on beat. I caught that church steeple on time with the kick at 10:27 as well. You guys are messing with me now. You're very artistic.

[@Sis6318]

The running guy at 11:47 scared the crap outta me!

[@liv3936]

im from New Zealand i live in auckland and when you guys were in pack'n save i nearly died

[@graceyang7377]

oh i'm from new zealand and tim tams are absolutely amazing

[@kellyliu9469]

AHHHH I WENT TO QUEENSTOWN A FEW DAYS AGO BEST EXPERIENCE IN MY LIFE I LIVE IN AUCKLAND SO IT WAS GREAT TO GO TO THE SOUTH ISLAND AND TO EXPLORE QUEENSTOWN. I GOT ALL MY IDEAS FROM YOU GUYS I LOVE YOU SOO MUCH.

[@waimoboi]

Christchurch is my home town! I loved seeing my city on the vlog! 👍🇳🇿

[@kennethcampbell7263]

1. Arnott's Tim Tam, Arnott' Biscuits for those that don't know are actually Australian owned and operated... You can see the group is long term friends because you're chatting and laughing about things from home and then get back to the holiday. 2. With when you not facing directly into the sun.

[@matthewrichards8497]

In the timeline, they are currently RVing in the States, so it's really cool to see their first international RV trip. Also, that shopping cart, though.

[@tommyhaynes521]

NZ looks like how I imagine heaven

[@henrythebeaglejones869]

Nice to see you back in KZbin all the best on your journey.

[@KaraandNate]

+Henry the beagle Jones thanks! It's good to be back!

[@mishaylaandrews1961]

[@stevenprewitt6201]

It's awesome to see y'all with friends

[@obisworld8565]

I thought the coffee was for kara hahaha

[@carlahelenamoore]

Hahaha, so did I! Got me confused for a few seconds 🤣

[@missfreespirit2496]

Vacay with best friends is always a great idea...

[@austinwiseman1817]

Congratulations on making me homesick!

[@yanlinglin3261]

I am living vicariously through Kara and Nate as I also LOVE to travel. Love you guys!

[@linnea9017]

Very classy coffee intro. Best one so far. :) And the first mobile .

[@cathieschmitgal5515]

Oh my gosh...I laughed through this whole video! You guys are sooo funny!

[@santiagokiwi3187]

It's quite exciting seeing you visit my local places!

[@miukkium]

I love the admirals club explanation at the end... hilarious

[@romermnky]

+miukkium I know me too. Someone sounds bitter. Maybe he should have signed up for lots of credit cards.

[@KaraandNate]

+Romer G. Agreed ;)

[@thewelshwanderers3323]

I love you guys, I started following you to get some ideas on travel, but your enthusiasm is sooo contagious. keep going you wonderful awesome people. Much love from the UK

[@loub.2992]

Wow, I could almost believe that you were in the UK in this video. It’s November 2024 now. Happy travels. xx

[@HamtaroMT]

Yay New Zealand Vlogs!!!

[@KaraandNate]

+Matthew Trowill FINALLY! haha

[@rachelbrown6247]

I live in NZ and it is really funny watching Kara and Nate finding everything that i find normal really strange.

[@j3weaver]

Jordan at the end! Too funny!

[@KaraandNate]

+Jennifer Weaver I know. He gets status the "real" way ;)

[@WhoAviation]

You guys should seriously Win some sort of Vlogger's Award for this one.

[@KaraandNate]

+WhoAviation Hahaha glad you think so! Thanks :)

[@iustinraducanu8861]

Jodes G And then they won shorty..... crazy!

[@petermcclung9730]

Jordan and I are living the same life apparently based on his description of Admirals club access, except mine is Alaska with reciprocal access at American. Well played, Jordan!

[@marcibartlett6880]

I like your friend, he’s funny 😁

[@ashleanicole]

I love seeing my hometown (Christchurch) in a vlog - so cool!!!

[@xkristixx]

After 4 years of traveling around the world, you need a "Top 10 Coffees" video.

[@sheriherrick4420]

I've been so into what's next that I've forgotten to like and/or leave a comment soooo..... Here I am doing both and I have to say it's so weird seeing you outside of Asia!

[@Akacharlee]

Super fun vlog with your friends!! :0) omgoodness the non moving cart...I was dying..lol...rhat was great...it's beautiful there, but I'm going to say it again y'all have to go to the Oregon Coast that drive to the lake looks so much like the drive in Oregon between Portland and the Coast. Stunning vlog as usual :0) so much fun!! BIG HUGS FROM IDAHO! :0)

[@bryonensminger7462]

Yeah you nailed it as long as the tail pipe isn't to hot and you start a wild fire

[@jonahkingi98]

Omg you guys stayed in the Heritage hotel. I work at the bar in restaurant in OGB (Old Government Building)

[@aw12bucs]

Pak N Save! ahhhh I miss NZ!

[@KaraandNate]

[@Zombosawr3000]

[@patriciaspates6856]

I LOVE WHEN YOUR FRIENDS COME TO VISIT AWESOME

[@5thElementDFW]

Am I the only one that always calls them Nara & Kate? My bad lol

[@stephanierobb6208]

I do this all the time. ! When my kids come in to the room and ask what I'm watching, I say Nara and Kate. LOL

[@Alphaflix-ww1xt]

It is really nice to see my new favourite vlogers in my home town but I live in ladbrooks near lincoln just south of Christchurch. You were just across the road from my mums old job as of now but sadly this was in 2016.

[@alicebeard2748]

The shopping cart!! 😂 but for real we need carts that lock like that.

[@leahfrost9467]

Oh and I’m from Christchurch Kara your NZ accent was so good

[@jademaikuku8835]

Welcome to newzealand kara and nate.hope you enjoy abel tasman and queenstown if you head there.And dont forget drive on your left hand side aswell.

[@rico00042]

Straight through to 93! I miss Asia. The CPL has to be rotated to get the effect you want. That's why it slips like that when you tighten it. I use one in the car to negate window reflections. --aaand I bet you heard this 50 times by now...4 years later and working on an rv like this one.

[@madoof34]

I’m from New Zealand and just realised u guys have been here so watching 5 years late xx

[@rachaeljancowski2146]

I had an idea. If there was a ON THIS DAY .... and you could repost it on the community board with the link from whatever video was posted that day. That is what I would love to see. Thank you for guiding and inspiring me every damn day.

[@itscassiejean5477]

Me not freaking out that you stopped and had lunch in the town I live in 🤣😂😊😌😀

[@vonsi8909]

Bread and chips! That way I can afford to travel around the world 👍🏼👏🏼😎

[@caseyoleary2212]

Wish I had seen these videos about my home country earlier!!

[@acbetka]

Don’t forget to stir your French press about thirty seconds after adding the water! Marked difference.

[@isabellefresquez106]

The wheels on the shopping carts lock once you go so far from the store to prevent people from taking them ha they do the same here in northern Colorado. (:

[@TheKobytan]

[@KaraandNate]

+Koby Tan Woohoo thanks! :)

[@elizabethlarose3632]

[@alicebeard2748]

[@arionz4713]

Doing stuff is always painless here bud.conparing to the US and most Europe countries or maybe all Europe countries.Anything from renting motorhomes to buying your actual home to ordering food at restaurants. Easy life .

[@Farbar1955]

Here it is, August of 2023, and I'm watching this for the first time. Kara and Nate look like kids!!! I'm guessing Nate is 27 here and Kara is 25.

[@melissarobinson9618]

[@johnallotment82]

Re watching these vids now as a kiwi and seeing that bread was $0.99 in 2016 is like wow. Bread is now $2-$5 for one loaf 💀 and the Australian accent at one pint haha

[@slee0687]

Such a beautiful scenery, the scenery looks so much like the Canadian Rockies, I would like to invite you two to visit Banff Alberta Canada. I think you would LOVE it here.

[@KaraandNate]

+slee0687 We'd love to explore Cananda one day!!!

[@klmueller8575]

Yes it certainly does. We just drove through the Rockies to Alberta and back last weekend ( from April 12 to 15th)

[@smythe62]
