Who are Kara and Nate?!
Watch our documentary here: • 100th COUNTRY DOCUMENTARY
Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married 2013 and were super “normal.” I was a teacher and Nate started a small printing business from the spare bedroom of our apartment. We discovered the world of “travel hacking” & became obsessed. So after 2 years of obsessively saving $35k and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016 for a “one year” trip around the world. Our goal was to see as many places as possible before we ran out of money and went home to “normal life.” We started this travel vlog to share our experiences with friends and family, but quickly fell in love with this lifestyle and did everything we could to keep going. 4 years later, we achieved our new goal of visiting 100 countries and all 7 continents. We had no plans to slow down, until 2020 forced us to ;) Which is when we bought a converted 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. 😊🎥🌎

Love the way you support each other! Next time you do a Via Ferrata, always have your two carabiner's facing in opposite directions when you clip onto the wire. If you were to accidentally fall off, you could risk having both carabiner's open at the same time. Placing them in opposite directions protects you because it provides an extra layer of safety and stops the risk of them both opening. I work as a Via Ferrata guide in the Italian Dolomites. Thank you for sharing your adventures with us! : )

Now, I’m a senior in high school and have probably watched every single one of your videos at least twice! You also inspired my love for travel and it’s one of the reasons I have decided to go to university in Prague next year! So, thank you for all you do.

But somewhere along the journey I saw a similar quote saying you’ll never feel ready, you just do it scared. And i told myself that over and over and eventually went to national level (was never a winner lol but I did it and survived which is what counted for me). Just do it scared!

There is a (steep and not easy) hiking path down from the peak. But I strangely enough find walking down a difficult and very steep path significantly less scary than hiking up. One reason is that going up you add the physical exertion of going up the equivalent of stairs in thin air to the psychological fear of slipping and falling.

These routes/trails with fixed cables are called “Klettersteig”. I think he explained it well…it’s a mix of hiking and climbing, usually in terrain that requires fixed cables or ladders in order to be “hikable”. In Europe Klettersteige are considered harder than hiking but easier than technical mountaineering or climbing. It’s a rather safe option with the extra thrill.

I’m afraid of heights, so I feel as though I’ve achieved a great accomplishment simply by watching this from my couch. My palms were sweating just watching you. As to how likely I would be to say yes to the ladder, a scale of 1-10 doesn’t apply, as there is zero chance I would climb. I’m glad you made it though!

I commented saying the same thing: zero chance out of 1 to 10. I have a weird thing that happens to me when looking down from heights in that I feel a tingling in my feet. That happened today once even watching this video. Unbelievable the things they do.

I’m just going to say it, you guys are freakin AWESOME! That took a lot of courage to climb that ladder, but it only goes to show a few things. 1) Never be afraid to do anything 2) Feelings of inner weakness will disappear, and 3) Be grateful to experience the world we live in no matter where that may be. Amazing Video!!!

KARA, anytime you feel like something is too tough and scary and then you go on to accomplish it with video proof, that inspires me greatly. For someone who cannot conquer challenges like this anymore due to physical disabilities, seeing you do it, almost gives me the same satisfaction as doing it myself! Next time you think something may be too difficult, do it for the person that wants to but cannot!

I love the fact that he was also aware that there were not many individuals that would have accepted that challenge. I love how much Nate appreciates what a gem he has in a partner that will push herself to do these things......YOU ARE SO BRAVE AND STRONG and I hope many young women who follow you gain the confidence to push their own limits.... Namaste beautiful

We have been subscribers of your channel since you were ~100k strong. Usually, big channels start slacking off when they hit 1M or so, but you guys have shown the same kinda commitment, if not more, even after hitting 3M. The way you have build this channel with sheer blood and sweat is very inspiring. It motivates couples around the world to believe that they can make it too….if they work hard enough. Love & admiration from India. -Fellow 33yr olds trying to build a travel channel as colourful & inspiring as yours.

I'm terrified of heights; I don't know how you two did this. Last summer I was walking across a rickety bridge over a waterfall and I froze half way over and couldn't move at all. A stranger saw me and thankfully asked if I was OK. When I didn't answer he came onto the bridge, looked at me, grabbed my hand and pulled me the rest of the way, lol. When we got off the bridge I finally unfroze enough to talk and thanked him profusely. He said he'd never seen anyone's face so white before, lol. If he hadn't shown up, I'd probably still be standing there, lol.
