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. 😊🎥🌎

Nate jamming to music while everything around him fell and broke was the highlight of this video! 🤣
11:49 ikr 😂
I can’t stop laughing!
Yes! Clueless! It was priceless
czcams.com/video/RbcCvkaXF4I/video.html👍
I loved that part!
Nate: *Rocking out*
Kara: *freaking out and panicking cause everything is falling*
Omg right 😂😂😂
I know😆😆
@@lemon-pn7gu i didnt know
Stolen comment
@@wingwei6273 FR stolen comment
I love how Nate is so kind to always bring coffee to Kara
OMG yes !
This video cracked me up… especially when Nate started jamming out as the bus was falling a part and then “it’s beautiful Clark” one of favorite movies!!!
Omg this was amazing! I can’t believe how many things flew out while you were driving, most of those have never happened to us 😂🙈 we had so much fun swapping with you. Can’t wait for all our adventures to come! 🌍✨
I blame Nate’s driving 🤦🏻♀️🤣 Such a fun time! 🐐🌮👏🏻 ….sorry again for the 3 things we broke and smearing a dead bug on your pillow 🤣🤣🤣
This was a fin video
Just subbed to y'all! Now going to binge watch all your videos, There goes my Sunday lol 😂
@@rosamorrison1 that’s how it goes when you find them lol
haha!
When the bed slid out while driving I completely lost it aha
Hahaha same 😂😂
Samee🤣🤣
czcams.com/video/RbcCvkaXF4I/video.html👍
Same here!
Me too, lol!!!
The chaos of Kara screaming and Nate jamming out when everything in the bus was falling had me about to pee my pants laughing 😂😂😂
“Nate they broke the door” also Nate: “WHAT”
ok so kara and nate i live in crisfield and i would of died to see you and jamie we are big friends i love you guys
czcams.com/video/RbcCvkaXF4I/video.html👍
When did someone say, "Nate they broke the door"?
@@drinkinslim 10:04
Kara: freaking out about all the stuff falling
Nate: vibing to the music and not helping Kara
czcams.com/video/RbcCvkaXF4I/video.html👍
He was driving hahah
Nate: Let me put the bus on cruise control so I can come and help you.
@@marchasmr3535 That link is TOTALLY irrelevant. Spammer!
Nate: Everything has fall in out of the refrigerator, we’ve converted the bed.
Kara: Fixing it all
Also Nate: Jamming out to music
HOL UP THEY WERE OUTSIDE MAH SCHOOL-
lol that’s so cool
i’m dying at “we had a friend stay over once” flashback “good night dusty” as he is on the floor lol
Fr tho
E

Laughed my head off when I saw the draws start sliding out when Nate was driving the bus for the first time on his own. Then the bed... 😂😂😂
😅😅🤣🤣🤣🤣😅😅😅😅
Yea that was funny, the look on their face was like... gost 👻 in the bus🤣😂😅🤣
I love the way Nate always fixes coffee and brings it to Kara while she is still in bed! So very sweet!
I love how Kara is struggling cause everything is falling and Nate is just bobbing his head and Vibin with the music living life
Ok the confessions of stuff you broke that had already been broken or never used had me laughing so hard tears were in my eyes. Such a great video.
The van definitely - but mostly because driving a big bus around in scandinavia and europe in general will be such a bother. The roads are just too narrow in all the cool places.
Norge, Sverige eller Danmark?
Synes ikke det gør den store forskel. Norge har nok de mest kringlede veje dog.
@@Kurkess vi har lige præcis de samme efternavne
@@zag3413 Haha... der er ikke mange af os ;-)
like my jeep dosnt even fit on some off the roads.
Kara and nate always make my day when I'm having a bad day so I just watch them
I've watched every vanlife couple I could find & so far y'all are my absolute FAVORITE!! Love y'all so much & love watching y'all's videos!! Soon as I get up in the morning I start watching y'all's channel 💜
I was dying laughing when there was staring at the road and everything started falling and the camera goes back to Nate and the bed just slowly slides out LOL
Right
Hhhhhlollll
Lol
Nate looks more scared of driving the bus than he did when he almost electrocuted himself/set him self on fire in the van 😂😂
K&N like = pure happiness. Best channel on CZcams by far. Love you guys!
/blew up the van i think you mean :D
ok so kara and nate i live in crisfield and i would of died to see you and jamie we are big friends i love you guys
czcams.com/video/RbcCvkaXF4I/video.html👍
too true lol
Kara: -trying to pick everything up whole more things are falling-
Nate: -VIBING-
Thank you both for introducing me to Raya and Louis, as well as Eamon and Bec❤❤❤❤i Greatly look forward to seeing you all together again
Which would you choose 🚌 or 🚐 ?
bus
but love the van
Van
Van ❤️
Bus
The chaos that starts at 11:42 while everything is falling and Nate just has a dance party while driving! 😂
🕺🏻🤣
Excellent video! Really enjoyed observing the 4 of you. If I had to choose, it would be the Van because driving a bus would be too difficult almost anywhere but on highways. The van is more climate controlled, quiet and has 2 seats up front. Yet… the BUS is so much more functional for daily living/working, food prep (great when you’re vegan/vegetarian), lots of available water and has a comfortable looking bed already set up. Might not have thought that way 30 years ago, but now as Seniors with health issues, it would matter. Would like to see more vehicle swaps!
You guys are awesome !
I love the “calling the bus a van count” ☑️😂😂
Lol
ok so kara and nate i live in crisfield and i would of died to see you and jamie we are big friends i love you guys
czcams.com/video/RbcCvkaXF4I/video.html👍
One of the funniest vlogs y’all have done! My fingers are crossed for an Eamon and Bec collab!!
I would die I love them all so much
That would be amazing!!
That was so much fun to watch!
I love your content
"Grinding the beans right next to my face" that's gotta be an innuendo.
kara & nate just be so wholesome bro. their vibe radiates so much joy n warmth
BAHAHAHAHAHAHA I’ve never laughed soooooo hard at a VLOG as I did this one. Nate is just dancing away and the bus is coming undone. HILARIOUS!!!!
Yore videos are Fun and funny to Watch
I would buy the bus hands down but I’m also a truck driver who operates a 84’ 8 axle lowboy. That bus is gravy to me. Lol
“What could possibly go wrong 😅 “
Me - A LOT
also Bus fo sho
Love that I'm catching up on all of y'alls videos and I have laughed the hardest waiting this one 🤣🤣
Why am I so obsessed with these van stuff it just so relaxing😍😌
I’d want the bus. I’ve already planned it out for myself. The determining factor was having separate spaces in a space. I need a craft room/work space.
no, unless your weather is always warm. A couple of Roma gypsies temporarily lived near my parents homestead and it was getting cold in late September, idk how they would've survived the winter in a bus.
@@Diamondraw4Real you install solar panels and attach it to an electric heating unit, if you insulate the bus it works well!
@@juliabailey96 yep plus you can also roof raise it
This is so funny!! When I saw Louis I was like “I’ve seen this guy before” but I really couldn’t remember from where. And later it hit me that I’ve seen him in Alfie and Zoe’s vlogs years ago. So funny to see him now in your video 😁
The collab we never thought we needed
Everything going everywhere btw love u guys !!!
I started dying of laughter when everything started to fall
Hff
Imagine living in a van, having a brand new friend and try to have a sleepover, then you normally say *”hey, i’ll tell my dad to drive my house to you.”*
nate: *intensely vibing to music with a fan next to him, living the life*
kara on the other hand - *trying not to get the bus to collapse*
I love when the couch is sliding and Nate is rocking out to the music.
How has Netflix not hired you?! Seriously, you guys are like happiness in a bundle!
I really hope they don’t ! The best part about Kara and Nate is how real and organic they are , when youtubers move off the platform, they have less control of content and always end up with terrible shows:/
@@HopelessKitten agreed netflix only cares about their profit and unless they have a really great team and allow them to be flexible witb it, they would probably be ruined
LOL WHEN NATE WAS DANCING WHILE EVERYTHING WAS JUST FALLING 😭
Kara when feeds animals:
AWW YOUR SO CUTE HI HONEY
Nate:
*I made friends*
Awesomeness!!
Omg I haven't watched Louis in forever! I first saw that bus with the previous owners and seeing it now brings back memories! Such a good video :)
This was such a great entertaining video. You folks need to do more swap videos. We enjoy watching this and look forward to more like this ;)
I love how everything is falling down and breaking but Nate is just jamming enjoying the life😝😝
Love the way nate is just dancing and kara is going crazy
Yes so excited for this video! The IG stories for this vid were gold!

Same! I can't wait to have it be like old times, even though we do really enjoy the van vlogs!
Great video guys. Good job. Entertaining and informative.
The expressions on nates face 🤣🤣
Van life for the win!
@Cheap good quality what the heck
I love these kind of videos 🥰

I have been watching your videos so cool and funny 😆 but when Nate took the food he said yes I’ve made friends 😂 so funny 😂
Kara doing some gymnastics in some videos ❤
The van really does have more KARActer! 2:22
Haha!

The reaction on how relieved Kara was on knowing that the broken part of the fridge was already broken 😂😂😂
czcams.com/video/RbcCvkaXF4I/video.html👍
i love the foreshadowing slides theyre so funny
also the fear in ur eyes while driving that bus.... def a factor in my consideration lmao
Awesome video you two!!✌🐢
11:37 I love how Nate is just jamming while everything is going crazy in the background and the bed slides out 😆 😂
As someone who drives a bus regularly, I LOVED watching Nate try to drive for the first time with no formal training. 🙃
Not Nate jamming to music while everything is falling and opening 😂😂😂😂
I have lost count of how many times I have watched this video but it's so GREAT and so FUNNY I can't help but keep watching. When I'm feeling down or lonely I can always turn to this video for lots of laughter and company. Thanks to all 4 of you.
You guys find the nicest people on your travels. Raya and Louis are so lovely!! ❤️
They look super fun!
The editing on this video had me laughing out loud with you both! So much fun, thanks for bringing us along!
Kara you caveddd! Still not washing our coffee pot here lol
❤️
czcams.com/video/RbcCvkaXF4I/video.html❤
You saw the hilarity that ensued when Kara washed the coffee pot on the bus! 🤪
Fun fact: Jesse James was assassinated when he put down his gun to dust something. So there's a lesson there for all of us!
Nate:*Dancing*
stuff: every thing falling and all of the things opening😂😂
Kara:Omg the fridge!!
Nate:peacefully jamming out to music 😂😂
Edit:pls get this to 5 likes,not begging.
Nate JAMMING out while everything was in chaos behind him had me CRYING actual tears. The editing is this video is 100/10. 😂
Anyone know what song they were jamming to?
11:49
Nate : Partying
Kara : Freaking out about everything
Lucky to be the driver
🤦🏻♀️😂

“If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.” Romans 10:9 “For God so loved the World that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” John 3:16 That’s how much he loves us that he sacrificed his own Son so that we wouldn’t have to be in Jesus spot so that we wouldn’t have to suffer.💕💕

I would choose the van, especially if I am on my own. I currently don't travel at ALL, but I wanna go to the US at some point and travel all around US visit ever state. and I wanna visit every province in Canada. Currently I work in construction, so it would be nice to have a warm place to be in for an hour or so lol. Just casually on my break chilling in a bed!
Just finished watching Expedition Happiness on Netflix yesterday. Thought the bus looked familiar and then the guy calls it "The Happiness Bus". It is the exact same bus from the documentary :o Nice to see its still in good use with different owners.
czcams.com/video/RbcCvkaXF4I/video.html👍🥰
@@marchasmr3535 You have been reported.
5:13 That really took me by surprise. The bus has quite an easygoing, bohemian feel to it, so I was impressed when that bathroom door opened up. It's like a mobile Turkish bath in there. Very nice!
It’s so funny how Nate fell everything in the bus. 😂
12:03 Everything fell out the pots the food in the fridge meanwhile ………
Nate just jamming to the music 😂😂😂😂😂
I have never laughed so FREAKING hard in all of my life!!!!! I SERIOUSLY had tears running down my face & couldn't catch my breath laughing at the couch flying out, the drawers, the fan & the fridge! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I haven't laughed so hard in forever! Thanks!
I laughed so hard when all of the stuff fell out!!So excited for the Italy vlogs!!

Love Raya & Louie's channel....and they brought me here to your channel
Nate Is just casually dancing around while everything is flying around back there
Nate telling Kara “Relax- don’t worry about a thing.” Famous last words...

Finally, the collab that was made to be. You guys are awesome
i love how it was chaos back their and kara was cleaning up and nate was just jamng out:)
Nate driving the bus is so funny!!!🤣😂
Chaos happening in background Nate just vibing

Vans for life
19:48 Kara is a ninja
I have been watching both your channels for years. I love this collaboration, it was so fun. I love your story telling videography style so much!
I m literally jealous of these people.. they are living such a normal life.. I pray things get better in India and rest of the countries as well.
God bless you ❤
Oh man! I laughed so hard, I had tears in my eyes! Best video of yours I have ever watched. lol!
These vidoes are the best.
I definitely prefer to live in a van, because if I want a motorhome it is because the flexibility it gives me, not just space. I rather have a home somewhere and travel by the van for a month or so. I like the luxury of taking long showers ;)
So u like killing turtles? Nice, but I don’t agree. :)
