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 travel vlog 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. 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. 😊🎥🌎 #penthouse #newyorkcity

Imagine Kara trying to get back into the hotel in flip flops over socks: - I'm staying in the penthouse, you gotta believe me!

[@MsPsych2009]

I thought that too but in another cut, it looks like she took them off…lol…I was like, “Will they let her back in with socks and flip flops?” The answer was, “OF COURSE!” Lol We are our own worst critics. That is, unless you have a KZbin channel and the trolls start in… lmbo! 😂😂 You go, Kara!

Wow unbelievable that your the type of people that fall for that. They don't want to be seen as their getting too big so they get stuff like that to make you feel better.

[@deborahhuckaby4623]

The one thing I can say about you two is when you get to experience like staying in special places as this, you're genuinely appreciative of the experience and it shows. Never get to the point you take experiences as this for granted. Great video.

[@aubreymerrick6917]

So true, I’m binging their whole channel and can’t get enough but I think that’s why they’re so awesome to watch! They’re relatable, I remember a video of Kara saying everytime they do something crazy they appreciate their regular life even more for the next few weeks which I just think is so true

[@kingingit]

Aw you guys - like kids at Christmas! You looked SO happy! Loved it - thanks for giving us a look inside the Presidential suite man - loved that!! The roof blew us away and we said we'd definitely have had dinner in the tub! 😂

You guys really know how to live and experience life to the fullest, from pushing yourself out of your comfort zone and roughing it in extreme conditions to lapping it up in complete luxury, and getting to know the locals in different countries you visit and experiencing their culture. This is why I love your videos ❤️❤️❤️

Kara, I'd bet you're the only one who's ever entered the hotel wearing a backpack, and worn it on up to the penthouse with it still on. You go, girl!

We have been patiently waiting to see this !!! And a helicopter ride to the airport what !!!! Thank you for sharing ❤❤

[@TheTravellingScotsman]

I had an unplanned layover in NYC 5 years ago today. I spent the whole day doing as much as I could, including Times Square and a helicopter ride over Manhattan. It was a day I'll never forget!

This was lovely. Loved how you were just yourselves in that gorgeous penthouse... Kara in her socks and birkenstocks and Nate in his hat backwards... and not worrying about going past reception or security haha. So down to earth and real! You looked so happy, I would have been the same.

[@martingallas3057]

When you just remember when they didn't go on a ferris wheel because it was too expensive and now a ride to the airport in a helicopter! I love them

[@ometofu]

i was really upset on that Hong Kong vlog. lol. Now they are too awesome

[@spooniesarah]

That was expense vs value. They couldn't justify spending extra on the ferris wheel when they started out, and in the end Kara agreed that it wasn't a good use of their money. Now, of course, they have enough money to splurge, and a helicopter ride to the airport is DEFINITELY worth the expense. Plus, we don't know if they had to pay for it in the first place. Perks of being successful influencers.

[@ometofu]

@@spooniesarah agreed. i don’t watch them too much now. i love the struggle at the beginning. i wish they can go back to all the countries they visited and do it again with lux!!
