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” while planning our honeymoon & became addicted ;)
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 back home to “normal life.” We started this travel vlog to share our experiences with friends and family, but quickly fell in love with living on the road and found a new passion for capturing our travels through video. So we 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.
After ~2 years of van life, we are back to full time international traveling! And now we are finding the best adventures the world has to offer :)
We are incredibly grateful to be able to continue doing something we love every day. 😊🎥🌎 Thank you to everyone who has been a part of our journey!

I hope Kara is feeling much better. I could tell Nate was missing his best friend, but he did a great job documenting his day.
wat happened to kara??
@@vviynI think he mentioned she wasn't feeling well in the middle of the video, so he toured brunei without her
Omg maybe it’s morning sickness???

Live in Brunei 🇧🇳 for 4 years as a Singapore 🇸🇬 Military permanent staff personnel from 1994 to 1998. Christmas is not illegal, it is a public holiday but the celebration is not celebrated publically like in Singapore 🇸🇬. It is a great country. Try Jerudong Park and go to Kuala Belait, you guys will love it. I was mostly station at Temburong not Bandar Seri Begawan.
Thanks for ur service in brunei,big respect ❤

It was banned last year.
ONLY USING CAPS FOR ME TO SEE BETTER - ANY COUNTRY THAT PUTS SUCH A LARGE PORTION OF THEIR CITIZENS DOWN IS NOT GOOD.
Did Kara and Nate see this yet?
Love you guys back out mixing with locals and experiencing culture!!!! That’s where you guys really shine. ❤
@@r3244vwhat?
Agreed. I like their physical challenges and luxury travel videos to an extent. But seeing them immersed in a new culture is what I love best.
I agree! My absolute favourite video’s are when they’re in amongst the locals and experiencing culture in it’s true form. That’s what made me fall in love with their channel 😌
@@AshleyPerera27what’re you even talking about 🤦♂️
Hoping Kara is feeling better! Nate you did great even though it showed you prefer to have Kara with you.
I lived in Brunei for six years as a kid! I haven’t been back since we left in 2000, so it was amazing to see a glimpse of the way things have changed or stayed the same in this vlog. Thanks for sharing!
Please come back😊❤
Me too! Lived there for 12 years and havent been there since 2006. It’s so refreshing to see it again 💕

I know the continuity is probably off, but I really hope Kara is feeling better! It SUCKS being in a foreign country, sick as can be, literally bedridden. She's a champ, but so is Nate! Pushing through to give us this amazing footage and story: it's impressive and beautiful at the same time. Thanks guys.

I love what you said Nate. The call to prayer made you feel so special not because it was a call to prayer but because it highlighted the differences and the fact that you get to experience a different way of life. Most people who are Christian might consider that a negative thing, you guys embrace diversity and other cultures and represent Christianity in a way that makes me proud to be a Christian! I strive to be as open, loving, and accepting as you guys are. You can’t put a price tag on niceness.
I'm not religious but was recently in Malaysia and enjoyed hearing it, it was kinda comforting and helped you keep track of the time. Even though it wasn't meant for us, we enjoyed hearing the singing and something different from the quiet back home

Why Most people from other country always think Brunei is a bad country? 🤔 We are living in peaceful here without paying a tax and everything😄
Believe it or not but paying taxes or not paying taxes might not be the foundation of what everyone perceives as the highlight of individual happiness, but for people who enjoy it there, go for it.
bad economic longevity
huh? peaceful?? U better open ur mind widely
Envy you. Your country is so peaceful. I never felt safe walking around at night but not in Brunei. I love how quiet the city is & how kind people are here. It’s the best place to live in. I can feel that people here are so happy to be Bruneian. I also met a Malasian who is a PR of Brunei, lives and works here, she told me how happy she is here. She feels very much safer than living in Malaysia.
Chrismas is not illegal. Its a public holiday in Brunei. Its just not celebrated in public spaces.
Thank you for clarifying this.
they clearly said christmas is not allowed to be celebrated in public tho sadly
Its true what he said. Its ilegal to celebrated in public spaces
@@Sentiumthey can celebrate it in private property etc its not illegal to celebrate it, people can come eating food in private property on christmas eve.
Theres even chrismas dinner promotions in restaurants during the chrismas public holiday.
Im so glad you went to my country! And I love how you didnt even criticize it like most youtubers. You are welcome to Brunei anytime! 😊

Sharia law😮
me too
Fantastic introduction about people being different than their governments. ❤
People are responsible for their governments. If the people didn't want it, they wouldn't have it.
@@Malc180sNot necessarily true. Look at America right now. Our govt is horrific the past couple of decades but we keep getting the same shit over and over. And do our votes really count anymore? It doesn’t feel like they do. We are becoming an oligarchy.
Definitely not true , have you ever heard of dictators, tyrants, or other such oppressive governments?
@@Malc180sI used to believe this was true until really digging into the mapping/gerrymandering here in the US. I can't speak for other countries, but there's been a concerted effort since our inception to discount the votes of certain demographics. Even if we had fair voting boundaries and no electoral college, the majority still doesn't represent _everyone_ . And as seen in our presidential elections, the count is usually split almost in half.
@@jasonlb456 Yup. And that’s the path we are heading down if it isn’t fixed soon. We are already spied upon by them.
About 30 years ago I was working in dtwn Seattle and the Sultan of Brunei was in town for a meeting with world leaders. At the time I was listening to an old radio and the upper part of the dial would occassionally pick up cell phone calls. To my shock one of the calls that came through my phone was the Sultan of Brunei making dinner arranagements. I will never forget that accidental incercept and of course at the time had never heard of Brunei so I had to look up the sultan and find out who he was.
So how is he in your opinion
@@skyezblue3136 I dont really have much of an opinion on him. The conversation was not very exciting. It was actually just about where he wanted to have dinner.

I work with Ayusa International high school exchange, and have spent most of my adult life promoting cultural exchange. Thank you for emphasizing that there are good people everywhere, as well as the fact that in a country the people and it’s government are not the same, especially when they do not have a say in it. Thanks, too, for being good ambassadors. I love watching your videos. When you share these cultural tidbits and show that people are people, you are making the world a better place. And you thought you were just making travel videos!

I stayed in that hotel once, i was a sound man for an artist who was invited to come play at the sultan's soccer teams birthday which happens to be his sons birthday if im not mistaken. Came out to the lobby and saw lines of rolls roys parked outside. Also our bus kept its engine running though out the night during the show, its to keep the AC cold the driver said. It was a few hours.
I absolutely loved how much you missed Kara, it was so sweet and I’m positive every woman who saw this wants someone to feel like that about her….. You’re both so very lucky & the best part is that you know it & appreciate it instead of taking it for granted…..💕

Praying for Kara. Hopefully she gets better soon and also for Nate hopefully he won’t get sick.
Brunei is a very humble country
Dramatic sunset everyday
Perfect and peaceful country
This vlog is what separates the traveler from the tourist. Kara & Nate continue to push boundaries and get out of the comfort zone that tourists usually have. They have set themselves apart from other RUclips travelers.

A tourist reserve their lounger at the pool in the morning and boards a coach after midday. Repeat that for two weeks in an all inclusive ressort and then fly home.
I’ve been watching for years and I feel like lately Nate has so much more personality, he just seems so confident in himself in a good way not a cocky way
Must be the mustache. 😂
It's his eyes. They shine a lot more.
Frr

Hearing the call to prayer for the first time while traveling was such an amazing experience for me. I’ve often wondered what Kara and Nate thought about it being from a similar background as me. It’s so beautiful and foreign and a wonderful reminder of how big the world is
Its so magical. The first time i heard it was in Jakarta when our family moved for my fathers job. The way it echoed over the city was simply making me cry.
I find it beautiful and calming
I agree! I heard it for the first time in Jerusalem.
@lb3659 its called fitrah, your hearth is earning for the truth, please look into islam without bias, im sure you will be attracted to the truth, may our creator guide you
Agree, it sounds so beautiful and impressive the way it's broadcast throughout the town / city.
I love all of their videos, but this type is my favorite. When they are just exploring a new place, eating the food and meeting the people. It feels natural and wholesome. I’m happy they can go on cool adventures but I’ve been waiting for a new country video. Feels like going back to their roots 🤍
hearing your description about brunei made me in tears, and im a bruneian myself! thanks you for dropping by you both.. and i hope Kara recovers. and most importantly i hope you both had a great time in brunei! 🎉❤
You make a great team. Nate playing it dry and informative combined with Kara's enthusiasm is endearing.
I'm loving the running tour of the hotel. I'm sorry Kara wasn't feeling well during your visit. This felt like an old school Kara and Nate video. I love it!
I thought it felt a bit rushed and I don't mean that as a pun. Cuts are 2-3 seconds and you lose the sense of scale when teleporting around. I feel like I only comment when I have something negative to say so sorry about that!

I’m a widow and my husband and I lived in different countries and enjoyed traveling. I’m so happy to have found your channel and, in this video, hearing you continually referring to Kara made me love both of you even more. 💜
I am sending loads of love and good thoughts your way, dear friend!! Please take care and be safe always 🌷♥️
oh my god I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU GUYS CAME TO BRUNEI!! I’VE BEEN WATCHING YOU GUYS SINCE FOREVER & NEVER WOULD I HAVE EVER THOUGHT THAT YOU’LL EVER COME TO MY COUNTRY!! please come over again & spend some more time here!
Kara dancing on the jet bridge never gets old, my cheerfulness meter goes up a few notches every time.❤
Also, Kara and Nate at the night market= iconic.
I love when you meet fans out in the wild, lol. That hotel was stunning, I'd be spending all my time in the swimming pools. I hope Kara feels better soon, I can imagine that being on the move so much and in so many extreme living situations can wear you down sometimes. The floating village is so fascinating, it's incredible that all of that is there out in the water like that. I loved your comments during the Call to Prayer, as I've grown up in the US surrounded by churches and am used to the loud church bells, but the call to prayer sounds otherworldly to me. I think I would be startled hearing it for the first few times, just hearing a voice in the sky like that, but sound soothing and meditative after the shock wears off. Thank you for sharing!
Now I'm even more sad that I didn't visit Brunei when I was in Indonesia and Malaysia - and I love your videos, they are really refreshing and real. I enjoy going back a little in my busy everyday life and watching you enjoy life the way you want it to be enjoyed. I know behind the scenes that there are many challenges associated with travelling, but every time you post a new video you manage to excite with your huge enthusiasm and mood and show us viewers that you really love to do what you do.
Greetings from Brunei. Happy that you guys finally visited my country. Your travel videos are the ones that have inspired me to start my own YT channel. Sorry to hear about Kara being sick and hope she gets better soon.
Once again, thank you for the video 😄 hope you have had a great time in Brunei 🇧🇳
Seriously the best RUclips channel out there! Even when I leave it running when I'm doing housework or working in the yard, it's still amazing. Thank you!
Hope Kara is feeling better. Missed her wonderful smile and quirky expressions. You guys are living large..Proud of you
I admire your fantastic attitude and openmindedness. You and Kara are a breath of fresh air. I wish I could travel the way you do, but since I can't, I just love watching your channel. It makes me optimistic. I also appreciate how hard you work to plan your destinations and all the filming and editing work that goes into these videos. I hope Kara is better soon.
19:29 "Hei we have the same moustache" I laughed out loud. Thank you for showing our humble country to the rest of the world. You guys are awesome!
Many thanks for sharing the people of the world who fill your videos with so much diversity and food-it’s wonderful to peek into these distant places places through your eyes. Kara & Nate is always better with two, but you did us right, Nate. Hope to see you both next time!
I absolutely loved this video. I love all your videos but this one felt like your old school vlogs. Night markets and exploring the beautiful country with locals 😊😊
I lived here in Brunei for 21 years already. Brunei is a smallest country, clean and green and respectful people here. Very peaceful country and relaxing.
Being in Brunei really brings me so much peace and comfort. Amazing air quality, sunsets, food, low crime rates and blessed with free healthcare/education. It's not perfect and we lack in a lot of things but I love it here
Great video! Love how you highlight the kindness of the people in this country. Thank you for sharing your adventures!
I love this episode so much❤❤ even though i missed kara most of the video 🥺 but guyyys, to me this is what travel vlogging is all about!! Ive never heard of this country and now im super excited to go and experience it! You made a great job by showing different parts of it. Great story telling, videography, and editing👏🏻
Watching you connect with locals and immersing yourselves in different cultures is so enjoyable. It's during these experiences that you get to understand the essence of a place and its people. Thank you for letting us be a part of your journey and inspiring us to do the same.
Lovely people, lovely video. I love the message of not judging a country by it’s government/leadership, I must admit I am guilty of doing that myself. But you have made me a better person. Thank you. I’m looking forward to next weeks video. Hope you feel better soon Kara! Love from the UK. XxX
Travel blogging has been talking on another level by you guys!! And setting such a great standard for others💜💜💜
I love geography and I have to admit that I've never heard of Brunei. Thanks for your video, because I like to learn at least one thing a day, so I'm good for the rest of the day, lol. Actually, I've learned my one (or more) thing for the day from your videos more than once.😊
Wow, so cool to see this country and its people.
So sorry Kara wasn’t feeling well. I hope she’s back to feeling great!!
Love from Southern California 💗
I moved to Brunei 🇧🇳 from the UK 🇬🇧 7 years ago. I would say the Government is one of the best things about Brunei, His Majesty The Sultan Of Brunei really seems to care about his people and I have met and spoken to him and his family several times. In 30 years in the UK i never even got close to my leaders and I don’t feel they care about the UK or it’s people at all.
Imagine if we judged Americans for the decisions of their government, it would be a billion times worse. Brunei never killed or invaded anyone.
The religion is very important in Brunei and I think it’s good they value traditional beliefs and the way of living.
It’s a peaceful country, people are generally very friendly and there is very little crime or conflict. People are happy here.
I find it insulting when western countries act superior and say negative things about how the people of Brunei choose to live. It’s not your country, if you don’t like it, don’t go.
Personally I can’t think of a nicer better place to live.
Do visit Brunei, they need the tourists and you will get wonderful memories and experiences here.
What a charming vlog... Your love for Kara was so lovely. I love how respectful you both are to people when visiting their countries and culture. Good job Nate you were amazing being out of your comfort zone... Feel better soon kara ❤
I love the fact that Kara says love you too when fans come up and say they love Kara and nate. Most youtubers or influencers would just say "aw thanks" or "that's so sweet".
The other youtubers are being honest though. Can you honestly say "love you" to people you've never seen before? Can you truly love a stranger you just met?
Of course you can.
This was much needed quality time with Nate, one on one between him and us. But I missed Kara and I hope she’s feeling better now. Bless you both ❤️
I absolutely adore y’all relationship. It’s so cute on how much Nate misses Kara, yet still adventures out to produce content!
I love how sweet, and especially respectful Nate and Kara both are. They are just like any ordinary folk but so astoundingly sincere and genuine. ❤❤❤
Thank you for given a south east asia this level of respect. Hope you come back for more and don't forget to stop in Malaysia.
By the way, In Malaysia, our version of:
-roti john have either minced chicken or beef in the egg bater
- pancake (apam balik) have crushed peanuts, sugar and cream corn. Some food stalls make other flavour as well like chocolate, nutella, etc.
i live 3 hour from brunei and they are the nicest people on earth and the safest place you can be, western media always portraying anything about sharia law is negative, people living here are depressing, people are rebellious and so on but it is the opposite, people are happy here...thanks kara and nate for coming here...
FALSE
Happy?!?$!!@#?? Lmao. Open your eyes my bro..
@@firstnews4434u are not bruneian, don't try to be one
As Borneo people,u said it right.nah,i am not a Muslim,Brunei have their own rule,people need to respect that.ndadala orang tidak gembira,org2 sana jak suka buat2 cerita nda bagus.
I hope Kara is feeling better. I love how you are willing to go to out of the way, out of the ordinary places. It’s very interesting to hear about the different details of the culture, architecture, religion, politics, food, daily living, (ways people use the toilet in diverse places)
You guys never disappoint! Thank you
I loved Brunei when I visited over 10 years ago! Such amazing people, so happy you two visited!
Hope Kara made a speedy recovery, shame she missed the village, maybe you can revisit this place again. Love you vlogs, all the best.
You two are gifted when it comes to meeting new people. The interactions are genuine and beautiful. I agree 100% that you cannot judge the substance of a country based on its government alone. Prayers for Kara that she gets better soon and thank you Nate for "filling in". :)
Get well soon, Kara!
Brunei is also in my bucket list.
I visited a floating village in Tawi-Tawi called Sitangkai. It fascinates me and at the same time, the wooden walkways terrified me.
I once lived in Brunei for 11 years and love it so much. Sadly, there is no way for me to get their citizenship. I had plan a visit for the Hari Raya next year, cant wait to meet HRH The Sultan again.
People are not their governments! This is also one of the greatest lessons I have learned from traveling and living abroad! I wish more people understood this!
Brunai looks marvelous. Glad you shared the beauty and animals and kind people with us via this video. Hope Kara feels better.
Love to see that you are both always positive thinkers - never judge a book by its cover. Loved this video - I had never heard of Brunei. Really do hope that Kara is feeling better - take care of yourself.
Whooooa, Good to see Dayat and his family again!! I met him on my trip to Brunei last year… That’s a crazy coincidence!
Very crazy “coincidence” I think Josie. You’ve been very kind to them with this comment.
Amazing how you guys can get so much in your videos. Not just a small look at a few things. I hope Kira is feeling better. ❤
Loved this video. It’s always great to see how you interact with the locals and it’s what sets your vlogs apart from the rest. Hope Kara got better quick!
This is my favorite kind of video you guys make- where you show a new country- the people, the food, and how best to experience it
Love this! Never heard of the Country before. Nate you did great! Hope Kara gets better, missed her energy.
Keep up the great content! ALBUQUERQUE New Mexico has nothing but love for Kara and Nate!
So I’m a huge dork and every time I see y’all meeting fans I get emotional for those people…I would totally cry happy tears if I ever met y’all because I have followed you forever and it would be like meeting old friends. So if you ever happen to see me out, excuse me being a teary loser! Promise I’m normal and cool! 🤣
Feel better Kara! ❤ You did great on the tour for us Nate…what a beautiful hotel!
Great vlog. Loved seeing such a diverse country. Hope Kara is feeling better.
Nate, I love the way you draw us in and encourage us to experience the journey with you. Great editing. Great job.
It’s a copy of someone else’s video. Sad they couldn’t give the credit. That’s capitalism I guess.
@@Jessicaaaaaaaait’s a travel Chanel how are they copying
@@JessicaaaaaaaaHow is it a copy? They flew there and filmed.
@@willowthestaffie545 by remaking the same video with the same driver, who can only be contacted via WhatsApp that Josie gave on her channel, and copying her intro and outro basically word for word. Plenty of ways.
@@becorations1 explained it in a comment above. They basically followed her footsteps and even got her boat driver and went to his home. The boat drivers can’t advertise their details in brunei because only government tour operators are allowed legally to tour tourists. Josie has his details in her bio. It’s almost the exact same video but she did the boat first and Market last.
Omggg, you guys should drop by the state of Sarawak in Malaysia. There are tonnes of nature here, great food and interesting culture to experience and it is just right beside Brunei !!! I’m a fan since ages ago, you have viewers from Kuching, Sarawak too 🫶
I want to visit Sarawak so bad!! Many of the BEST plants were found there and I hope to one day experience it irl ❤
I was in Sarawak for a couple a years ago - great nature, great food and very interesting nice people live there
Fun fact: Sarawak used to be governed by Brunei until the then Sultan gave us to the British. Nate and Kara, we’d love to have you here.
thank you featuring brunei, professionally and whole heartedly accepts it and what the country holds on to.. may you be bless, have a nice day
Loved this! I appreciate the education you give when visiting places. Kara I hope you recovered quickly 😍and Nate, thanks for sticking to the site seeing to share with us.
I hope kara fully recovered before the current survival challenge!
And after 3 wks of barely sleeping trying to get my toddler to transition to criv, understand very well!! My bed feels like paradise.
I hope that Kara is better.. I did truly miss Kara's presence on the tour. Nate you did a great job. Hugs & good vibes from Montana.
Pray Kara feels better soon! Nate, you did an Awesome job showing us the scenery and customs of their country.
This was such an amazing mix of the feel of your old videos, but with your new perspective. I loved it!
Nate, GREAT JOB making this video with Kara being sick. I’m sure that definitely wasn’t on your bingo card for the day and you nailed it. 👊🏻
i love this community. the videos that kara and nate put out and the inspirational comments i read after. it's just so beautiful and endearing 🥺
Prayers for Kara! Safe travels!
Naaah I chew my ambuyat. It doesn’t really do much but it kinda re-size/re-shape it to fit my throat 😂 Plus been eating it since I was little. Never heard the “no chewing” rule among the family. Or maybe there was but I was little and didn’t care 🤣. Thank you for the visit. Glad you enjoyed your brief stay. Unfortunate Kara didn’t get to join your experience/adventure. But hey, there’s always next time 😁 PS: Nate mentioning, remembering Kara on every activity is 🥹💖. I want that kind of relationship. Much love! 💝
You’ve done so much for me when I don’t feel good I hope you feel better kara!!
Thank you for that intro. You guys have such a huge reach, it’s such a positive thing to explain to soooo many people who haven’t been fortunate enough to travel the world that, contrary to what you hear, most people in the world are lovely, accomodating, friendly and do not reflect what transient government is in charge. Can’t listen to the headlines….
Kara feel better! Nate you did great, love love love “meeting” the people you meet on your journeys; by far my favorite part of this vlog is not food or transportation or stuff but interactions with local people in their home countries. AND!! even Cracker Barrel doesn’t have pancakes that big! ❤️❤️ from Knoxville TN
Love your videos! I have been watching for about 3 years now, and you always have some way to entertain me! I know you two are halfway across the world, and have been on a boat in the Bahamas, but you need to come back and experience the wonders and beauty on the mainland of some of our thrilling islands!
What a unique country! I loved it all. I hope Kara feels better soon!
I hope you have a great day ❤
I was lucky enough to have a layover in Brunei in 2010 and stay at that hotel the most luxurious one I’ve ever been in! And you are so right the people make a country. Loved it all 😊
Been watching you guys for almost 5 years already and it’s so amazing to see all the new things you two do as a married couple and it inspires not only myself but a lot of other people in the world! Keep doing what you guys do and keep making great content 🫶🏽. Maybe one day you guys will visit my island Guam 🇬🇺 🇬🇺🫶🏽
Hi Kara and Nate, do come to Brunei again. You should visit Temburong, its a district where its mainly nature. Have a hike and go for a kayak ride, go to the longhouse and go to the tall tower and oversee the broccoli looking forest. Theres a small rock climbing activity as well. Its a nice experience. Visit serasa beach overlooking the sunset, its really nice. Also, you haven't been to the end part of the empire hotel where you can sit down and enjoy the ocean breeze. Also, visit one mall, let it be The Mall, Times Square or etc, just to get an experience of how different shopping malls are in other countries. Only on SUNDAYS, the city centre (town) of Bandar Seri Begawan, the roads are closed for people to run/jog/walk around town. Its Bandarku Ceria, its a platform for the government to encourage the people to be active and stay healthy. Theres a small animals exhibition, theres food and drinks stalls, theres vintage goods' stalls and its a great experience honestly. Also, go to one of the fancy restaurants (Kaizen) or any nearby restaurants in front of the Town's waterfront. And enjoy the scenery. P.S FRIDAYS at 11am-2/3pm, ALL shops in Brunei are closed for the Friday'prayer. I would suggest you to have some takeaways before the time and enjoy the nearly emptiness of the streets/roads lol.
I'm sorry that kara missed on that experience. I really hope she got better fast
Finally been waiting for them to go and visit Brunei 🎉❤i hope you guys can stay long next visit, and visit our ulu temburong❤ love from Brunei😊❤
I love this type of travelling. What an amazing trip and meeting the people .. and embracing and accepting these culture ..! Beautiful.. I hope Kara is feeling better ! Hugs ❤
I just want to add that my favorite part was Nate's beautiful musing on the call to prayer.
Awesome video! "Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness" Mark Twain. This vlog exemplifies just that. I hope that Kara is feeling better.
It’s always the people!! Everywhere y’all go it’s always the people that make the experience and make the memories💛 So sorry that Kara wasn’t feeling well😕 y’all just need to go back another time😉
Stay you ✌🏼
