Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the travel bug! We started “travel hacking” & finally decided we wanted to 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 RUclips channel to share our experiences with friends and family, then decided we really liked vlogging and traveling! So we extended our 1 year trip to now FOUR years :) Now we have a goal of traveling to 100 countries before 2020! We are incredibly thankful to do something we love every day. :)
Happy Easter y'all 💜We hope you enjoy part 2! Here is the cool article I referred to about Bar Bar 😊www.washingtonpost.com/world/middle_east/the-iconic-beirut-kebab-house-that-thrived-even-during-war/2015/09/19/e3dcefb2-5650-11e5-9f54-1ea23f6e02f3_story.html?.d23b897b095c
Happy Easter! Have a wonderful day!
Hello from lebanon, have you left beirut in your trip in Lebanon, because there is so much to explore outside of beirut?
Seeing you enjoy my country just warms my heart :)
I love watching your videos! Makes me wanna travel even more. Are you guys coming to Copenhagen anytime? Also, but only Nate can go, there is this autonomous monastic state in Greece called Mount Athos, which is really spectacular and quite surreal. Women haven't been allowed entrance for a thousand years, as well as female animals, as it is dedicated to the Virgin Mary.
@@cedricabm8991 Yes they left Beirut
Lebanese are the nicest and kindest people in the world and the expression to others are genuine and truly from the bottom of the heart. I am Lebanese and sooo proud of it. Love you Lebanon.
best statement from great Armenian Lebanese.
lebanese ? be proud & i wish i was in Lebanon , stuck in hell ( los angeles ) for 43 of my life & i am still a LEBANESE CITIZEN
@@hmsdemolition8588 lucky man
@@Item1948 how am I lucky ? I got a Jewish daughter & 1/2 Russian boys !! Where is the luck that I am missing 😪
Matiss Paradise there is some racism, yes. It’s getting better
Im an Indonesian and i love people from lebanon is very very kind
Thanks so much
THE WORLD NEEDS MORE BARBARS. Places where all sorts of different people can come together. 😭
This vlog was great guys! That article was fascinating. Thanks for sharing!
Agreed ❤️
@@KaraandNate waiting for ur reply
Lebanon is literally the best country ever🇱🇧❤️😍
Y'all should call this Barbar tour instead of lebanese food tour 😂❤️
OR, today's video was sponsored by BARBAR, for all your food needs while in Lebanon. They all looked very tourist friendly.
Amjad Mrad well it is Lebanese 🤷🏻♂️
I'm Lebanese background I have no idea what that guy in front of the store was trying to say but I think he was trying to Talk To you in English 🤣 I hope you realy enjoyed it ,it's realy fun over there you can do anything in Lebanon.
لك لأ كان يضحك عليهم حتى الشبين يلي ورا قالوها
He was saying something about a cameraman I think lol 😂
معاكي حق
I don’t even know if he was speaking Arabic lol
I grew up with some Lebanese Canadian friends and am familiar with the food and culture a bit, but I've never really seen anyone travel through Lebanon. It's so nice to see people and their daily lives in Lebanon itself! Thank you.
And once again I say that a new country has been added to my bucket list!! 🤣😂💛
me too to die there
One of the greatest advantages of Beirut is that everything is a walking distance far, that’s why you don’t really need public transportation when exploring or taking a stroll in the city..
I'm losing it at Nate in the bloopers... he is just nodding along with those guys, not a clue as to what they are saying... LOL!
Hahahahaha the old man is not actually saying anything he's trying to speak english
The two guys at the end, who were trying to be funny, actually aren't Lebanese... one was like sort of Palestinian, the second kinda Syrian and the old guy "mix max" with mustaches was Turkish or Kurdish..
They're totally Lame ..
Oh my god! That "oh baby" moment with the shawarma was fantastic
Glad you liked it as much as we did😂😂😂
Almost did a spit take
I agree. That was perfect.
Greetings from jordan to lebanon ❤️ love lebanese people ❤️
Hi, found your channel 10 days ago and enjoying a lot.
Watching on my TV, and pressing like or thumbs up at all videos.
Writing in my phone to tell: in Amman, my wife and I stayed at the same hotel and the senior man from the candy store, (Lebanon) got video and pictures with him.
Keep the good work.
Sincerely
Marcos
Cheers from Brazil.
0:56 love it when Kara said "Not complaining.." because the basic of travelling is to enjoy every bit of it, even the downs..
Thx that u came to my country. Today I ate at BARBAR because you reminded me of this restaurant.
I am so happy that you finally came to my country Lebanon 🇱🇧 hope you had a good time here I love you so much guys ❤️❤️ in Lebanon normally everyone is friendly. Happy Easter 🐰💜
@Tony Stark it's is usually really safe and there is lots of amazing things to do like visiting the soap museum and Tyre Beach
Tony Stark southern lebanon is considered to be controlled by hezbollah since the majority of the citizens there are muslims, but their isn’t any threat at all! Even further, the area is super safe and warm and have amazing people, plus it has amazing tourists sites and ancient places you can visit!! I go there approximately once a month and it’s a delight!
@Tony Stark, yes Hezbollah is almost in complete control of Southern Lebanon; they keep an eye on foreigners who go there.
@Tony Stark, no, unless you speak of religion in public it does.
I met lebanese people in my country Oman
They are the most egoistic and arrogant person i seen till now
I am thinking does local lebanese people had the same attitude problem or not
*Halloumi and za’atar - great choice!*
How could you choose ANYTHING ELSE?!
hallumi & 🍉
10:24 "you want the testicle right ?" 😂😂😂😂😂 he's so nice he didn't realize it lmfao
Danny Shamoun 😂😂😂😂
Great video! Beirut has been on my bucket list for a long time. I would like to thank.both of you for making the most awesome travel videos ever. You guys have been such an inspiration for us. We've just take' the plunge and quit our jobs to make travel videos and started our own channel
Awww congrats guys!!!!🌎❤️👏🏻
@@KaraandNate Thanks a lot guys! We've gotten so much useful information from you and really love your channel. Since we started this, we really realized how much work and dedication t has taken you to put out this crazy amount of videos. Don't forget to subscribe (just joking lol) ;)
It's true you guys are such an inspiration! Keep up the incredible work 😍😍🌎
Kara is the best food journalist EVER! What ever she eats she discribes it so well and also you can tell she loves food. If it is sweet, sour or spicy. She will tell you if it is a good mix or not. I loved Anthony B shows. Kara is even more passionate! I would hire you on the spot! Good job!
I've seen countless and countless food and travel videos but this is the first time that I see one of my country and it was so refreshing to see it from a perspective that's not familiar with it since we're already accustomed to it. Amazing content guys !
Kara I love how much joy we can see in your face when you try these dishes :D great to see how delightful lebanese food was for you!
What a fantastic video! When I was younger I had a best friend who was from Lebanon, he ended up moving back there in 4th grade and ever since then I've been interested in visiting the country one day! Loved watching this!!
I love Lebanon haven’t been there in two whole years ☹️
Thankyou Kara and Nate for translating Fahrenheit into Celsius of all the units that the US uses that one is the hardest for me to visualise.
Amazing story behind Bar Bar and cool how many different spots they have
What a wonderful way to start my Easter! Happy Easter Kara and Nate! I realized today like many other K&N subscribers that one should eat first before enjoying your vlogs! What a happy, mouthwatering tour today. It is so good to see Nate enjoying the food! He must be feeling much better! Yeah! Thanks for this heartwarming, feel good program. Thanks to all of the kind and friendly Lebanese people who demonstrated the true nature of their country! Take care and Happy Travels!
Thank you so much John ❤️😊
@@KaraandNate You are most welcome!♥️
Happy Easter!! I love your optimism that shines through all your videos. Even when people pull you aside from your “mission” (getting the best video) you gladly go along with it and probably make their day. Great video y’all.
After the pandemic is over and if you decide to go back to traveling the world, you guys should go back to lebanon and visit the mountains and go check out the rest of the country. Lebanon has so much to offer. Much love
11:05 i can tell he is not talking in lebanese nor english, the face and Nate is just perfect "just smile like u understand" 😂😂😂😂😂
An amazing video!!! Beirut is definitely on my top visit destinations now!
Mahin SAME! They make it look so amazing and the people seriously seem so nice!
After watching your video on the barbar falafel I couldn't resist and went to try barbar myself, although i pass by there everyday, for some reason I never thought of trying it. Yesterday I tried their chicken shawarma, seriously the best !! Today while coming back from uni I had to buy my whole family about 10 shawarmas because they loved the one I ate...... We are barbar addicted now because of your videos ! Hope you enjoyed Lebanon
your food tours are the greatest! love seeing the world through your eyes!
I love the way you guys are so open to meeting people on their own ground, experiencing the many different cultures & lifestyles around the world without any judgement beyond, "Yeah, this food tastes good but I didn't like that food as much." Keep it up! :-)
I think they’re a great example of how to travel thoughtfully and with the right attitude.
I'm so glad I found you guys on RUclips. You both light up my day. Thank you for sharing your experiences with me. It really opens my eyes on how different cultures are.
You guys are opening up so many unique countries that I now want to travel to! Thank you!
👍😁🌎
Happy Easter!!! The bloopers in this were the best!!! Couldn't control laughing! I must say Lebanon is a wonderful place. The people seem to be really friendly and the food awesome
Great work guys! Happy travels
Kara slurring her words because of carb coma!!! My very favorite 😱💕🥰
I ‘watched from the beginning’ and I’m finally up to date! Wow.. What a journey it’s been. Thanks for taking me all over the world guys lol. Two amazing souls.. bless you both. From London, UK.
Glad you enjoyed it Shar! ❤️🌎
Thanks for visit my country, you are always welcome guys!! 🇱🇧❤️
Za'atar man'oushe is the best!
You're right about the people in Beirut! We lived there for a year when I was kid. Our neighbors made us tabouli every day!!
Wow, I had no idea that I'd be adding Beirut to my (very looong) must see list. Those falafels looked delish!!! BTW - thanks for adding the celsius :)
You can go to many more places other than Beirut like Byblos, Baalbeck, Aanjar, Cedars Of God and much more! And you should try the Lebanese Mezza(it's many Lebanese dishes served at once)
Y’all literally make me want to board a plane and travel the world every time I watch your videos 💕
Best thing with BarBar is when ordering grilled chicken delivery to my hotel room in the middle of the night....I hope you guys visit outside Beirut , the countrysides, that’s where the beauty of lebanon is and the real food
The Lebanese are so nice and beautiful, it’s safe and you’ll fall in love with it
We have to get to Lebanon and Barbar! Thank you for sharing their story and delicious food 🤤
You should try the mezza! It is many Lebanese dishes served at once in any Lebanese restaurant(its made of more than 30 dishes)
Happy Easter!!! You Guys know I love you!!! I have NEVER wanted to go to Lebanon, BUT I now want to go to BarBar's sooo much! You make everything so fantastic!
I would have never thought to visit Lebanon but now its definitely on my list! Thank you so much you're videos are really eye opening 😊
LOVE HEARING THIS❤️❤️❤️
JonathanParis1
I have been to over 52 countries. LEBANON is definitely my favorite destination EVER!!!! I have been there 3 times! Amazing country, breathtaking nature, picturesque sites, wonderful architecture, very friendly people, awesome beaches, very yummy food (I mean really really YUMMY!!!!) and it is very safe!!!!! BEIRUT HAS IT ALL ❤️❤️❤️
@@JonathanParis1 And a good half of the pop. is christian too👏😀👍😀👏👍😀👏👍😀👏👍😀👏👍😀👏👍😀👏👍😀👏👍😀👏👍😀👏👍😀👏👍😀👏👍😀👏👍😀👏👍😀👏👍😀👏👍
You guys haven’t seen anything about lebanon there’s sooo much left to see and experience it was nothing but still enjoyed it 💕
We had a Lebanese kabab in Toulouse, France of all places, it did not disappoint ;P
you guys are always welcomed
NATE!!! I am so with you on the sticky hands thing. I cannot stand it. If I am eating something messy with my hands, I use a ton of napkins. As soon as I am done, I have to go wash my hands. People think I am weird. Nice to know I am not alone.
Wow, you two have such a way of immersing yourself into the food culture. So fun! Brave too!😃
Thank you for making videos for us to watch and thank you for your thankyou. ❤❤❤
Love. Love. Love. I missed this style of you guys just walking around and finding food and people! Happy Easter! 🐣
Glad you enjoyed it Sandie ❤️
love it that the occasional person still calls you Ronaldo, I made that comment what seems a long time ago, think I was one of around 60 subscribers. you guys have came so far since then, well done guys, love you
60?! Wow thanks for sticking around! 😊 Yes he gets comments ALL the time about his resemblance to Ronaldo. Especially after a fresh hair cut 😉
Love you guys because your videos are so educational...I hear something I don't know e.g. meze and that leads me to look for more information about the region and it's history. I appreciate how you guys help stimulate the brain.
Happy Easter to you both and all of my Kara and Nate following family. Hope everyone had a wonderful day and came home to somehow suddenly become hungry again after watching all of this amazing Lebanese food.
Your guys’ videos always make my mouth water from the yummy food you always eat!! I love y’all
Beautiful Vlog! about these little things from my country Lebanon , you are both welcome again and anytime !
Hi guysss! Hello from lebanon 🇱🇧 I actually recommend going to "Jeita grotto" It's fantastic! Love you guys ❤️❤️
The videos were so good u guys are so sweet but i feel like u came for food not for Lebanon's beauty, u didn't show what Lebanon really is how amazing it is and how many different ancient places and how much green Lebanon is...
Love Lebanese food myself, put Lebanon on my bucket list, cheers guys travel safe!! Happy Easter!!
I love your attitude, you are brilliant ,thanks .
love you kara and nate ❤️happy easter✝️🇱🇧 Glad you enjoyed lebanon there is a lot of nice places and areas to go to outside beirut district 👌👍BTW : YOU DIDNT TRY KENEFE!!! 🤣😣

Every time I watch your Vedio i never forget to smile. Keep it up. 😊
🤗🤗🤗🤗
This has become a tour of the food of the world…and I like it!
Hi guys, your visit to Lebanon was great but short! Visiting the mountains, Baalbek, winery, Biblos and many more places is a must. I am Brazilian and love the Middle East. I hope you will have the opportunity to stay longer next time.
I love your channel.
" I don't even like sweets that are not chocolate" 😂 Kara is my spirit animal..!!
So glad you actually went to the right food places!
Barbar is a must! ❤️
It amazes me how similar Mexican and Lebanese food are! Like the deserts you showed, and the shawarma reminds me of tacos Del pastor
Nothing tasty 😋 and delicious like the Lebanese food, it’s beyond amazing 😉
"You want the testicle, right? Yes? Sticky hands are Nate's biggest pet peeve in life."
I can't even right now.. Losing it.
Happy Easter! Have a good day and keep travelling😍
*Cristiano!!* 🤣🤣
Ronaldo!!
4:57 I love them! 10:47 bloops

It would be a VERY long video 😍
I love kaak so much, with zaater is amazing! Very happy you enjoyed! Come to us again!
We just tried khao soi for the first time and it was amazing! We have been on the hunt for it in our town ever since you raved about it. Did not disappoint! 😊😊😊

I want to travel with you guys 😁 You’re making me want to go to Lebanon even more!
So good to see Lebanon in a vibrant light. Always enjoy your vids :)

Happy Easter, always bring a smile to my soul😉🐰🐥🐣
u know I watch your vlogs like I'm really there experiencing these. You guys seem so adventurous and very welcoming to try out everything from different parts of the world and I want to do that too. You guys are so lucky to be doing something new and adventurous almost every single day. My dream is to travel the world but MONEY is a problem and it would be better to do it when I get a significant other plus I am still young anyway
Kara if halloumi is your favorite cheese, you must definitely come to Cyprus! The birthplace of halloumi! Cyprus is an island country just across the sea from Lebanon! You will really like our island and it’s history! And also we have some amazing beaches!!
We did! Loved it!
FIRST!!! love you guys so much!
We feel the love❤
There is a Lebanese restaurant within walking distance and my husband and I love it. The shawarma's are really good but my favorite is Kofta Skillet with Tahini it's comfort food.
