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 channel 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 in our 9TH YEAR of 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!

Hey Guys thanks for coming out and being a part of the event. Really appreciate your support over the last year. What a beautiful video and congrats to Nate on running the marathon 💪🏻
Glad you enjoyed it Harry! Y'all rock!
Harry is the unsung hero. It is Harry had the gun to his face. I hope you are well, dear soul. ♡🌠
Hey you two! Thank you for the amazing support and the kind words! I can’t believe you came all the way out to see us and Russ. You’re amazing. I’m the one who’s star struck, you guys shouldn’t be 🤣 I hope we can work together in future or meet up somewhere awesome!
I hope so too! 🩵🫶🏼
😮😮
JARRED! You're a star in the aesthetic/reality universe 🌟 🌠🌌
You made his videos so entertaining on days that I’m sure we’re so tough and potentially dull! Thanks Jared!
kara picking up a car full of random dudes on the way was so unexpected im wheezing, gosh what a sweet video
One of the random dudes I happen to know appreciated it as well after 22 kilometres running in the heat 😂
@@FrederikSchukken they made an awesome team! i'm sure she appreciated the company as well ^_^
The way Kara said “I think we’ve been pronouncing Tunisia wrong, I think its TuNiSiA.” 😂❤
its Tunissia in English with one S , Tunisie in French, and Touness in Arabic
"Please don't make it the top comment" no just top 3 kara 😂
😂😂😂
Love this! 😂😂
Honestly the way they talk about Russ and how star struck they were to meet him would be my reaction to meeting Kara and Nate… maybe with a bit more screaming and panicking 😂
Exactly right? Me too!
me three!
Add me to that list!
Absolutely!! I'm star struck by them!
they were about 3 blocks from my house at the Telsa station in their cyber truck video. Upset i missed that.
Can we keep Jack? I love him.
Yeah! Thanks Jack! 🙂
I love Kara just casually making friends along the way.
I love how like some guy decided to be the B-Roll guy for Kara like "Is nate taking the shots?" - Nate films someone holding a camera in the trunk of the car
my first thing i want to mention: GREAT JOB FOR RUSS!!! and that’s amazing that y’all got to be part of it, and thank you so much for letting us all join too! secondly, i’m loving the posts lately. they have all been so much fun and its wonderful to hear that y’all are genuinely enjoying posting again🫶. third, kara, huge props to you for being in the support car. your energy makes these videos so entertaining. during this one, when it was the finish line and you were so happy for everyone i said “wow i love kara.” your energy is absolutely RADIANT. and to nate, HUGE props to you for running an ultramarathon with no prior training AND for giving yourself breaks when you needed them. lastly, all the cool clips jack got made this video NEXT LEVEL! i love that you guys can make friends everywhere you go. i also loved that the both of you made sure this was still about russ. thank you for this video, i absolutely loved it.
This really made me smile :) thank you Erika!
As a Tunisian i waited for a video in Tunisia for years 😍🥰
Im a tunisian to
What a beautiful country too. 😁✌
Tunisia looks like a beautiful country the landscape and homes gorgeous … and what a way to see it via Kara and Nate’s camera and raising awareness of an an amazing cause.. the Tunisian guy who ran whilst fasting what a legend
Since this video traveling to Tunesia is on my bucket list! Looks like a beautiful country!
Thank you for introducing Russ Cook to your audience! I'm gonna start on day 1 as soon as I'm done with this video. He deserves all the support in the world.
My mother passed away recently. She fought a long battle with Alzhiemers. Yall are the first RUclips'ers I followed 4 years ago. I'm from Memphis as were my parents, they then retired in Kingsport, TN. Yall's videos have brought me so much joy and a diversion during all my difficult times. Thanks for bringing the joy to those who need it.
My sincere condolences sweet pea. Much love ❤
i'm so sorry for your loss! glad you could find a little piece of joy though.
We have experienced the pain of a loved one with Alzheimer’s and know how tough it is - I am so sorry for your loss 💛
I am so sorry to hear of your loss….I live in kingsport! Small world
So sorry for you lost, my mum has it, and its not good., Much love x
It's strange to feel pride of two people I don't personally know, but every video I burst with it because Kara and Nate are just so tenacious and dedicated.
Edit: Congrats on yet another new country added to the ever growing list.
Nate is amazing. I just started running and it's daunting to think about a marathon and Nate just flies to another country and does a marathon on day 2 after a one hour run prep. Phenomenal work guys, love how you live your lives. Champion attitudes
Humbling, emotional, inspiring. I got goosebumps when he crossed the finish line. Russ should be publicly recognised by the King with an OBE at the very least for this truly incredible feat. A man, a myth, a legend. And congrats Nate for pushing through in the heat and making it to the end. Fantastic video and now I'm off to donate.
As someone from the UK I know Russ from Geowizzard's kicking a football across England, he's an absolute beast and I love that K&N have been able to join in with his momentous achievement across Africa.
You guys have helped me so much!! Love you guys!!❤😢
love to hear it ❤
@@KaraandNate Heard you're coming to South Africa do you have a time and date yet? Maybe a meet and greet! Ya'll have lots of fans here!
@@frankodebeer7354Ohhh I hope so! I'm in Cape Town and would just love to meet Kara and Nate❤
Cannot imagine anything more cool that watching Kara and Nate run with the Hardest Geezer and support him so strongly. It is such a great mission for him to complete.
Tears streaming down my face when Russ ran across the finish line . I did not know about this guy and I am British - where have I been ?? Russ is a legend in his own lifetime , and , as someone else put he definitely deserves an OBE. Kara and Nate , you just absolutely rock , you are my very favourite Chanel to watch , I see you have posted and I get so excited!!!!! Your enthusiasm and utter joy in life makes your content such an absolute joy to watch .
Let’s get Russ to a million and beyond . ❤
I did not think it was going to impact me this way but I broke crying when he crossed the red ribbon line. What an accomplishment for Russ and how all the runners supported him on his last leg of the journey
This video is one of the many reasons why I love you guys!! Not only do you support SO many other people but you always make a great video!! Even the ones I think aren't going to be the best, but I watch them all, so I will watch this one are AWESOME!! Congratulations to Russ and to Nate! ❤
The finishing line gave me chills!! I was so excited for the finish!! I can’t believe how many people came and supported Russ!!
Wow, Russ is a remarkable man! Absolutely has the biggest heart for donating every cent! He is truly a great, and will go down in history as such! I can't imagine having that level of willpower and sheer determination. I can say the same for Kara and Nate. They have inspired me time and time again! I can't overstate the gratitude I have for being able to see them grow this channel and build their career and life of their dreams! 2016 wasn't that long ago! Just goes to show you that if you truly want something and have that sheer determination with a bit of inspiration, we to can have the life we most desire.
OMG, I'm in tears already... been following Russ @hardestgeezer's epic journey from almost the beginning. He's a legend 🙌👏❤ thank you for amplifying his incredible impact 🙏 Well done Nate, you did it ... really impressive!!!
Ahhh I cannot believe you guys uploaded on a Sunday what a lovely surprise!!! A big congrats to Kara and family on the birth of her new gorgeous nephew!!!!
After all that time, Russ was/is deserving of everything he's done! Sea of people going to the Sea with Russ, watching was way cool! So glad you two are keeping up with AG1 and better health! Russ embodied true Gritt and honor! Congratulations on your run Nate!
Thanks so much for using your platform to help Russ and the charities he is supporting. Well done on the marathon!
Surprise Sunday video!? I'm all for it! Thankfully I just sat down with my coffee!!!!❤❤❤
Sorry we didn't get it up yesterday!! Cheers 😊❤☕
@@KaraandNate no apologies needed! 🫶🏻
A double Espresso 😂
@@KaraandNate God willing you'll start appearing at pop culture conventions for Q&A, meet and greet, autograph and pics. ❤❤❤
Finally, Tunisia! I was wondering why they hadn't been there before. I visited last summer and it's definitely one of my favorite countries, a real hidden gem.
I am so happy that you enjoyed our small cute country !!!
كان بتجنن!@@chillout914
Small? wtf? Tunisia is roughly the size of Great Britain, that's England Scotland Wales and Northern Ireland 4 countries combined! But as a Tunisian/German i find it cool that Tunisia stayed hidden in plain sight. don't want it to be swarming with tourists like Greek islands or Italy.
I absolutely loved everything about this video. Kara picking up random guys and one turns into the videographer AMAZING. I wouldn’t have expected anything less. This video had me beaming from ear to ear. Great job guys. And WOW!! What a feat!! Congratulations to Russ. I remember my first and only 1/2 marathon…it was tough. So glad to see he finished with such an amazing support system. Also, Congratulations Nate on finishing, what an honor it was for the both of you to be there in support of Russ. I’ll go check out his channel now.
So happy you enjoyed it Michelle!! :)
Amazing! You two have lived the most epic life to date. And all because you decided to film that first video. I love that you both are so adventurous and just jump on a plan to Tunisia.
And thank you for introducing me to Russ. I'm going to start watching his journey from the beginning. Can't wait. 👏♥️
Much love from south africa Kara and nate 🌻♥️ yall truly a blessing showing us the wonders of the world and cultures
As soon as I finished this video I went over to Russ page and was instantly hooked. Even though I know how it ends I’m completely in awe of the journey
I just screamed when I saw you finally posted, seriously thank you so much for recommending Russ Cook on your channel a while back ago I started watching his journey while he was still in South Africa so happy you got to join him and that I get to see it from a different perspective ❤
I'm Tunisian ,I've been following you for years and I was waiting for this video. You really have to come again and stay longer. There is so much more to see in Tunisia . It was really inspiring and humbling seeing Russ pass the finish line.
I thought it was so sweet and like nice when Nate said hi to Russ it felt like he was just a kid meeting a celebrity he looked up to 🥹
Russ is a legend! I love that you guys picked up his story… I love when two worlds that I care about collide! 🙌 LOVE THIS!
Good to see you two have reunited after your time apart 🥂😊 I'm looking forward to watching this adventure in Tunisia 🇹🇳
Thanks so much for sharing this Kara and Nate. This man is a force to be reckoned with - such an amazing human being. He deserves an amazing vacation.
I love your enthusiasm and seriousness in whatever you do no matter what happens. Congratulations RUSS and all those who followed and participated!
History was made!! So cool you both were apart of that day with Russ 🎉🏃💨
Ive been following Russ Cook from the beginning im so glad you did this video. I hope he gets more followers from this
Omg so cool you guys did this! I have also been following Russ's journey since about a week in, was so emotional watching his final video crossing the finish line. Well done on the marathon Nate!
Congratulations, Nate!! Do not beat yourself up! That is such a hard task and you tackled it. Don’t ever doubt yourself. You’re such an inspiration to so many of us, so keep being you and just do the best you can, and don’t think you’re not enough. Awesome job!!
Kara, thank you for being the amazing, honest, truest version of yourself. I know the smiles can be hard, but thank you for being such a positive person. Being the support person can be so draining, but you both are so good for each other and we so greatly appreciate you.
I started watching your channel several years ago, but got my husband hooked with your van adventures, and we love you both. Keep up the awesome job!
Kara and Nate are like literally my idols. When I grow up I want to have visit 100 countries! I am currently on country 4/100 which was Tahiti. You guys went to bora bora like 5 days after I was there! You guys have also helped me find what I want to do when I get a job! Which is be a travel RUclipsr just like you guys!
Been checking the entire weekend for a Kara and Nate video, finally came at 19:00 in South Africa! Thank you so much, weekend made!
thank you for sharing this. How cool to be part of the excitement, fear, joy, exhaustion, pride, gratitude- literally every human emotion was felt- Thank You and congrats to Russ and Nate and everyone!!!
Way to go, Nate & WAY TO GO, RUSS! What an amazing journey & way to accomplish your dream. Kara, what a support system & I like how you acquire new friends along the way. Y'all are amazing ❤
only kara and nate fans can like this comment 👇🏻
Anyone can like this comment because there shouldn’t be any divisions between Kara and Nate fans.
@@danielbiasevich7580, 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Just thinking from not a fan/ outside headset if I wasn't a fan clearly I wouldn't be watching them to even like this comment
@@danielbiasevich7580nobody should like the comment because they are just fishing for likes.
Why can’t you Brat’s just watch the videos without trying to create Drama?
Thank you so much for brightening my weekends, look forward to it every week
What an awesome experience to be a part of! I was crying just watching him finish and I wasn’t even there! Great Job Nate as well! Another great video! Love you guys!❤
I started to tear up watching this. It's amazing what a human can achieve especially when dealing with internal battles. How beautiful to have all these people celebrate and cheer him on. Thank you for documenting this. As if I didn't need another reminder how truly beautiful you both are. Way to go Russ! Nate you did amazing, and I love how Kara stopped to help and gave the runners a ride.
I thought I saw Nate in one of the shots whilst watching the news on the day Russ crossed the line (He was - deservedly - all over the news for a day or two here in the UK!) What an epic journey he’s had - well done for running the last mile and thank you for raising the profile of his fundraiser…
There you are!! What a nice surprise on a rainy Sunday! 🥰
Kara and Nate! You are such awesome people! Thanks for bringing this epic journey to light and for supporting such an inspiring event! I luv u both! 💞

Love you two so much!
Thank you K&N for sharing Russ RUclips channel with your fans. I watched this video last week and just watched the final run for Russ today. That was an amazing finish to a beautiful story and I would never had know about him if it wasn't for you. 🙏 I only wish I'd known about him from the very beginning so I could've followed the journey. RUclips is still full of amazing stories to be told. Appreciate you guys. Safe travels.
Hats Off to Nate for making a vlog while a running a Full Blown Marathon

Wow! This is so crazy yall went to go watch him finish. Over a year ago, the two of you briefly mentioned you were watching him on RUclips.

Russ deserves so much more credit for what he accomplished!!
Best part by far,,,,,,,,,,,,,,the world came togetherr ❤

Love this! Thank you for taking us along on all of your adventures.
Tunisia is a beautiful country. Thanks for sharing it with us. And congrats to Russ on the huge achievement. Kudos
The guy in the yellow t-shirt who crossed the finish line at the same time and stood right beside him as he hugged his gf is everything that is wrong with this world.
so selfish
I’m sure russ being a chill guy doesn’t care that much but still being the guy in the yellow, use your brain lol, let russ have his moment. Just a few steps back is all that was needed
I LOVE YOURE VIDEOS SO MUCH!! IVE SEEB EVERY ONE !!!
wow!!! i have no real descriptive words to describe how totally amazing you both truly are. and how amazing this video is. that was such an incredible, hard, persevering feat you accomplished nate running a marathon in russ cook's last marathon of his stellar feat of running the length of africa for charity... congrats! and kara, you are the best encourager and support to nate and soooo.... many others. thank you for a great video. continued travel mercies and blessings.🕊
Wooow what an epic video. We've been following Russ on YT the whole time. This video is the best I've seen from all the final videos that are popping up from Russ's journey.

My sister’s 🥰💞
This was so special.❤ I ugly cried. Congratulations Russ! I subscribed. You all are making the world a happier and better place. God bless yall.
Probably my favorite video of yours thus far! I typically don’t find personal physical challenge videos to be my absolute favorite, but this one was incredible!
