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. 😊🎥🌎

Okay officially added to the top of our bucket list - WOW !!
I’m sure Hunter would love this ship! (Also love your videos as well!!)
Same here, then I noticed it costs $40,000 US, so now it's a little further down the bucket list!!
You guys should meet up & make a vlog together... 😁😁
See you there! x
I'm sure Hunter would love it!
Honestly freaking INCREDIBLE GUYS. How cool that you were some of the first to ever take this vessel for a spin!! just WOW..
its so wicked!
Covid is just the distraction, while we struggle with masks or not, vaxx or not, employment or not our elected officials and bureaucrats behind the curtain are quietly removing our private property rights, our right to travel, our right to assemble, banning protest, our ability to use cash money and bringing in digital id and digital currency and now seizing peoples bank accounts. TOTAL ENSLAVEMENT ! Until the people wake up and you impact the World Economic Forum affiliated politicians and big businesses that run government and are supporting and driving the lock downs, nothing is going to change. The World Economic Forum, the United Nations UN Agenda 2030 and government controlled media are our biggest threats. Covid is the mechanism by which they are destroying the middle class and private/mom and pop businesses. Many of our government officials including Federal MP Chrystia Freeland, Conseritive Michelle 'Pronouns' Rempel, Federal NDP leader Jagmeet Singh and BC Premier John Horgan (and i am sure there are many more) are affiliated with the World Economic Forum (you will own nothing and be happy). What little democracy we have left is in the process of being subverted. Our elections are supposed to "feel" organic and grassroots but these people are groomed and then presented for us to "elect" and then they magically do the opposite of what we want them to do.
They are going to tax you out of your car with $10 a litre gas and force you to live in their smart cities, when will you say ENOUGH?!
The whole idea is to print money till they destroy people's savings through low interest and high inflation and collapse the dollar and bring in a one world digital currency, add to that more crushing debt for our grand kids to never be able to pay off.
All that is required for evil to triumph is for good men to do nothing.“ Edmund Burke
[“If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor.”]
An evil enemy will burn his own nation to the ground to rule over the ashes.' - Sun Tzu
The government will tax you to the point that you are paralyzed financially.
The bankers will ensure we stay in debt. The pharmaceutical companies will ensure we stay sick. The weapons manufacturers will ensure we keep going to war. The media will ensure we are prevented from knowing the truth. The government will ensure that all of this is done legally.
@@CreightonLittle Agreed!
Hey guys! How have you been?
Hi Sailing La Vagabonde!
I ran straight away to check the price of such a trip. The cheapest version I've found $74,320 per 2 people (1 room). Well, what a motivation to work harder to be able to afford such a cruise. It looks truly amazing!
I love how you're discovering such adventures and sharing those with us!
That’s what I was going to do too, but decided to look in the comments first. That’s expensive and probably why the ship seemed empty.
That’s rare we get to see a beautifully decorated cruise ship with clean, simple lines and Scandinavian influence. The cabins, lounges and dining spaces have a very 5 star, luxurious ambiance.
French class!
I don't know if y'all are completely aware of this, but the amount of joy you bring into each of our lives with your uploads is immense. ❤ Your energy, your content, and love for humanity as a whole makes our lives just that much more enjoyable. From the bottom of my heart, thank you guys!
Couldn't have said it any better!
facts
Really let's me take a break from depression.
Ditto!
Well said, and so true!
This video reminds me of the Antarctica series which is one of my favourites on your channel, couldn’t be more excited to watch your North Pole adventures 😍😍 following your journey since 2019!
They just posted this how is the comment 5 h old 🤣🤣
@@gracedorien2152 they made the vid private but not the playlist so people could see it early
To True
@@jeff-ex2hv all hail Jeff the all knowing. Thank you ❤️
Oops😄
We enjoyed your north pole icebreaker journey so much. As we're watching this 1st episode, my husband Jerry's says. "I have engineering documents all over that ship." He's a now retired, Senior Systems Engineer. His company designs and installs Dynamic Positioning Systems for ships. Jerry designed the system on this 1. I thought that was very cool. Just wanted to share that with you both. Small world. This was 1 of his many designs when we still lived in San Diego California.
Love this xx
Cool!
Great👍
i'm honestly so in awe of your relationship, you can tell that you guys are just as in love with each other and enjoy each other's company now as when you first started
I literally don't even know how to describe how I feel watching you guys do these incredible adventures. I found you shortly after my now 5 year-old was born and I quickly decided to binge watch you from day one until present day. Seeing you go from not riding a giant ferris wheel because of your budget, to showing people the adventures that exist it literally brings tears to my eyes, Thank you for being 100% authentically you, excited over every little thing and I can tell you still feel the pinch me moments. You two feel like family and I cannot wait to watch this adventure unfold.
I could not say this any better!!!😊
Oh right! The Ferris Wheel story! Nate got a lot of flack for that, people calling him cheap for taking Kara to see it but not ride it. It made perfect sense given their $75/day budget that had to include all housing, transportation, food, and entertainment. But he's mentioned it in several videos after that people got mad about "The Ferris Wheel incident."
@@carolehirsch7315 oh for sure! That’s why I love that I went back and watched it all in order because watching them go from the basic travel and LOVING (most) of it to the fanciest stuff and still being the same - just love them.
"It doesn't get dark ever up here" ... except for winter... when it doesn't get light!
Great video, as ever, guys.
Lol I laughed so hard at that 😅
No problem. When it gets dark up north, get down south.
They probably don’t conduct cruises at that time of year
Oh man, this ship must have been absolutely AMAZING - I am just SO jealous that you guys did this, but also so thankful that you took us with you!
THIS SHIP LOOKS INCREDIBLE. everything you need is literally on it! it looks so luxurious and nice to stay at. im so glad you guys could enjoy this!
Omg! Kara was already making me laugh with how hyper she was during the tour, but then the Teletubbies suit and her dancing happened and I was DYING!!! Such a good vibe! Love it!
I just love you two, never in my wildest dreams would I be able to see the north pole. I am 66 years old with health issues... so thank you for going on this trip, I can see the polar bears through your adventures.
I agree.
I simply ADORE the immense enthusiasm in your videos… I’m not a fan of cold weather at all but the joy on your faces makes me feel warm and happy inside as I watch this beautiful video
I’m speechless! Each time I watch one of your videos of the AMAZING adventures you go on, I always think it can’t get any better than the one I’m watching!! Then ….. you head on an adventure to the NORTH POLE!!! I have learned more from watching your videos than I learned in my years in geography & history classes in high school. Hope you both continue these AWESOME adventures for us all to experience with you. Be safe & have FUN!!
The first video I watched of you was the Antarctica Series. Now seeing your North Pole experience while actually heading to Longyearbyen myself in a few days, makes me so happy. Thank you for the inspirations!
Say hello to Cecilia, Christopher and Grim!
I love you guys so much , my grandma recently passed and watching u have helped me a lot through the tough time , y’all just always make me smile 🙂
That cruise ship is so nice inside. Wow
I'm so sorry for your loss.
I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m in a similar situation, having lost one of my great-uncles recently.
I felt like Kara, skipping along all the decks and rooms and outdoor areas, grinning ear to ear and happy as anything! Great vlog!
Just a clarification for those that might be unaware: When he said "It does not get dark up here, ever...". Within the Arctic circle, and the Antarctic circle, the phenomenon of Midnight sun occurs. This means that the sun does not set below the horizon for at least once every year, per the definition of midnight sun. Directly on the poles, the duration of the midnight sun lasts for pretty much half a year.
The downside of the seemingly ever lasting sun in the Polar circles, is that when half a year goes by, the opposite Pole circle wants its share of the sun. After 6 months of everlasting sun, the phenomenon of "Polar night" occurs. This is the complete opposite, and means that the sun never rises above the horizon. No real daylight, for 6 months straight.
Glad we've cleared that one up.
This is officially the most jealous I’ve ever been of a Kara and Nate adventures.
OMG, you two are so much FUN, and a great pleasure to watch online! Kara your facial expressions, squeals of delight and giggles are truly adorable - just love that you guys include the bloopers in your editing - that keeps it all fabulously real as well as hugely entertaining too. Thanks for sharing this incredible North Pole journey with us ... I'm a tad envious, and definitely adding this to my bucket list. Enjoy Canada with Eamon, Bec and Max xx
Don't forget Oso is there too! I caught a clip on Instagram of Oso waking them up in the morning with full body hugs and face kisses in bed. That dog is something else!
Sooo excited to see what comes next over the next 2 weeks on this amazing and EPIC adventure! Following Kara all over the ship got me totally and completely lost! That was fun! Can’t believe it’s so huge and so luxurious!What an incredibly built ship! As everyone has mentioned already, the joy you bring to all of us is next level and so appreciated! Thank you!
i love how Kara was so happy and giggly when explaining everything. like you guy always put me in a good mood! :)
Hi both, This episode is gonna be epic. Don't think anyone will cover the Northpole so well
I went there last January '22, 24/7 darkness. It is in my vlog, You guys should try that too!
only Santa might top them
You guys just keep taking things to the next level! Not gonna lie, I loved the packing video as well. I will watch you guys do anything. But this is awesome!!
I liked the packing video too! But you're right, I'd sit and watch a video of them just packing their clothes, doing laundry, washing dishes. Whatever. I just love hearing Kara's infectious enthusiasm and Nate's well planned explanations.
I love Kara’s energy in this video. It’s so positive and made the video fun. I have always enjoyed the content that you guys put out. The quality is amazing in all your videos. Your videos make me so happy and grateful about life. Thank you so much for creating and sharing these videos!
I did a cruise with my mother to Alaska back in 2007 and fell in love with the beauty of the landscape.
I personally enjoyed going through the ice that we had to traverse and the glaciers we saw.
BUT...... I am extremely jealous of your trip. I didn’t know there was a cruise that one could take to the North Pole.
I guess I will live vicariously through y’all.
Super excited for this series. Something I can’t imagine being able to do myself but seeing it through your eyes / cameras is awesome. Thank you.
This is so exciting. I look forward to seeing the whole series and hearing more about your trip to see Eamon and Bec! Love traveling vicariously with you guys. Thanks for sharing your adventures!
Wow 2 weeks aboard that ship unbelievable! So awesome!!! Amazing amenities and unreal views. That's a bucket list type of trip! Congrats
I only recently discovered you two on RUclips...and I'm glad I did. I have so much respect for the two of you having unlocked the secret to actually living life at its fullest. I watch each episode you release with a big smile on my face, because, how can I not? Your positive nature and all around happiness is contagious as well as inspiring. I so badly want to go on this trip to the North Pole and see it with my own eyes now. Oh, just a small observation on my part. You guys clean up pretty good in your fancy attire. (Insert showering joke now) Thanks for the adventures. 🙂
I cannot wait for your other videos!! This looks like it was one amazing trip and it’s just the tip of the iceberg. Sorry couldn’t help myself. Looking forward to seeing a new episode before next Saturday!!! Currently a little over half way the watch from the beginning playlist and to see your guys growth is so amazing!!! And to add to it my husband has finally joined in watching with me. It’s sparked his interest in traveling which I have ALWAYS wanted to do and now we’re making our own bucket list!!!
Can we just appreciate Kare and Nate because they have been to every continent.
Yes, the north pole is just an iceberg though, its not a continent
@@davidanalyst671 I wasn't implying that the North Pole was a continent
The excitement when breaking the ice is contagious, especially when Kara hears it in the restaurant 😊🥶
My dad used to work in boat construction and a few times he was able to bring one of those liferafts home (12:55). We would put it in the garden in summer and fill it up with water. So we had our private pool with a 'roof' over it. After a while the roof would rip, so we took it off and treat the sides as trampolines and jump against the pole in the middle. It's an amazing memory I have from my youth. My dad passed away a few years ago and I still miss him very much. Thank you for bringing up this amazing memory of him.
Amazing - can't wait to see the rest!! It's so nice to watch how you both really appreciate these experiences!!
That is an incredible ship. Wow I’m so looking forward to this series! Thanks for bringing us along.
I am super excited. I viewed your Antarctica trip and now the North Pole. That ship is so excitingly stocked with things to do, enjoy and eat. I want to be there as well. It appears safe and luxurious. It is a must do trip.
I know without a doubt, much like your Antarctica series, this is going to be a series I will watch over and over and over again and I'm only 12 mins into the video! So cool, you guys! Thanks so much for bringing us along!
You guys have the best lives!! So great to live vicariously thru you!! Thank you for taking us along for the ride!
Hope to see an Eamon & Bec collaboration soon!!
Smiling so much after watching this, and after reading the comments, it’s amazing how big an impact y’all are able to have! Look at all these people whose days you’ve just brightened through your adventures and storytelling! 💛
Kara I loved your faux Scandinavian accent! And…this is a bucket list trip! But wow. Just looked at the price. Thank you to Swoop & Ponant for hosting you, and you two for having a channel that enables us vicariously travel to the North Pole.
What a fantastic series this will be! Imagine a 14 day trip from Svalbard to the North pole..just wow. Cannot wait to see everything in this series.
I’m so glad you guys uploaded. I can’t travel and you guys make me feel like I’m there with y’all. Thank you for sharing your life with us. 🥰
Thank you both for an amazing adventure. i will never be able to do the things you do, but watching the two of you have so much fun brings me so much pleasure. Can’t wait to watch the rest. Be safe and have fun. ❤️
Nobody, nooobody, makes travel videos as well as Kara & Nate. Thank-you so very much. Lotsa love from Doug in Toronto.
WOW guys, ! I'm speechless! What an incredible ship! In the north pole onboard that amazing cruiser!! Looking forward to the next videos!!
You guys inspire me so much! I’ve just got back from an incredible 2 week trip around Poland on trains and made videos everyday! You are the ultimate goal! I love how you guys make videos! Thank you for the inspiration
I'm so excited about this series. Your content is fantastic. I can't believe you only have 3 million followers when you provide us with so much content that deserves a much larger audience. 💯
Yesssss! I really enjoyed the Antarctica series so I feel like this is the well deserved sequel! The boat looks amazing.
You two are so cute together! Love the playfulness and energy between you two especially after being together 15 years. One can only hope to be as lucky!
ruclips.net/video/LaPzsmCwpeY/видео.html
I couldn’t even hold in my excitement as I watched this! Such a dream to go to the North Pole plus 2 weeks on that amazing ship! Happy we get to ride along with you 🤗
The intro leads me to believe it's gonna be a great video! Whenever Kara gives a tour, it reminds me of that old MTV Cribs show. 😀
Brilliant and amazing I am so excited to watch this series of videos. It just looks so wonderful!
I should also say thank you as I have followed you from the beginning but I have never commented.
You have brought so much knowledge, joy and fun to all your followers.
Wow!! Looks incredible the ship! It must feel so surreal to be breaking through the ice while on board.😮😍🙌
Wow this ship is incredible! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 So luxe and gorgeously designed. Definitely adding this to our bucket list!
ya got 30000 for a ticket?
@@martinvadi1342 is that how much it is?? That’s crazy!
@@breckankirby9825 yea and the website says that the high end suite “starts at 97k..” it’s crazy but if for those that can do it I’m sure it would be worth every penny for the experience
YOU GUYS! What an amazing trip! This channel just keeps getting better and better!
Wow what an amazing ship! And only 5 cm steel....that's surprising! Thanks for taking us with you on this trip!
You guys are literally GOALS. Thank you for this adventure! Your videos have carried me through COVID lockdowns, unemployment, and everyday frustrations. You are a light to the world. 🥰
especially during climate change and significantly heat increased around the world.
I loved this video! This looks like such an amazing experience. I’m so excited to watch the rest of the videos in this series.
I’m soooo excited for this series. Makes me wanna play the lottery to see if I could ever go. Love you guys and thank you for bringing us along on your adventure.
This is breathtaking!! I loved it. Literally, it's on my list now!!❤️🇸🇦. Keep doing like these fantastic videos🤍. I felt I was with you guys 😭🤍
Cool.. so envious..Tx for sharing….your view is our view…can’t wait for next episode
I live for Kara's tours, always brighten my day !
Thanks SO much for sharing this with us!! A Kara and Nate video always instnantly turns a gloomy day around 🙂
A grand tour and you 2 had some great fun. Looking forward to the next video. 🖤🖤🖤
As a Norwegian myself, I think you guys pulled off the pronunciation of Longyearbyen pretty well!
I love your videos. I love Kara's positive energy and Nate always makes me laugh.😊
Look at how far you have come! You are living the life and what a fantastic opportunity for you! I love the ship and the trip. I will definitely look into this.
The hair dryer and the shoes shot made me laugh so hard. Love you two. Can't wait to see the other 4 episodes of this trip!
Can't wait for this series! I've cruised Alaska twice but this looks way colder and crazy!🤣🤣😍😍
Yep, definitely just added this to our bucket list. The cruise ship is surprisingly luxurious and the views are absolutely incredible! Can't wait for the rest of the series!
Polar cruise is amazing! So happy for you experiencing all that, enjoy!! ☺️
You guys bring a lot of joy to my day and I love watching you guys
Oh, yay!! A North Pole series! I'm SO EXCITED!!! I loved your Antarctica trip so I'm just as excited to see this one! And how great is it that you were in Svarlbard. Do you know there's a pretty popular RUclipsr that lives there full time? Her name is Cecilia Blomdahl. I've learned so much about that island from watching her videos. It's a very beautiful, weird & fascinating place to be.
I was going to say, they went to Svalbard and didn't meet Cecelia??
Wow! Really didn't think it could get more incredible than your Antarctica trip, but I can already tell this is going to be incredible! Cannot wait for the next part!!
I been following you guys for little over a year now and your videos bring me great joy and also get to see the coolest places on earth thank you both
Absolutely love Nate and him explaining things ❤
This was so cool! Literally a dream 😍 can’t wait to see the rest of this series 💖
So happy for you both! You guys deserved it! lovely fancy trip to the arctic!
I went on the orient express a week ater you guys did and it was so cool to sit at the bar and think 'wowza kara and nate sat here!! that's so cool!' you really did the train justice in that video I had such an amazing time:) happy belated anniversary to you guys too!
Your Antarctica series was fantastic, I’m already sure this will equally blow my mind 🤩
I’m dealing with a nasty divorce and moving in to my very first apartment as a single girl. It’s exciting and overwhelming at the same time. Your videos and lots of prayers are what’s getting me through this major adjustment in my life. I can’t tell you how much I need your videos to help me escape a little and get a sense of a level head and peace. You two are almost literally saving my sanity! God Bless You!
Been where you are and and now I wonder why it took me so long…..I LOVE IT!….and I hope you will too, eventually.
"Role reversal", as Kara hands Nate the coffee cup. How cute. Also, loved the little butt slap at dinner, LOL.
Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful trip with us . What a trip of a lifetime.♥️♥️
You guys take the most amazing trips!!
Your Antarctica cruise is our favorite video! I'm so excited to see the rest of these!!!
This is amazing. Can't wait to see what you do next. Safe travels.
What a wonderful trip! Exciting!! Can't wait to see the next episode..
Kara's unabashed joy is infectious
ахахах, ты тоже тут после Топлеса?)
You guys produce the best videos, no fillers. Wonderful adventure WOW! Love it!
You two are awesome, tanks for sharing so many amazing places in our planet. Bucket list add on straight away. Can't wait for the rest of the episodes. 💖👍
You guys never fail to make amazing videos
What an incredible experience! I’m looking forward to the entire series. I watch travel RUclips videos to get inspired for the three months my partner and I travel each year. Spending 50000 on a two week trip is far beyond aspirational for us…but it’s wonderful to experience it through your eyes! I like the balance of budget friendly and the occasional luxury experience on your channel. Thanks for the inspiration! ❄️

Ahhh wow, that ship is absolutely STUNNING!!!! This is for sure our list now!!! I love all of the lighting and how glamorous the cabins are - and probably the best gym view, EVER!
