you should go to the North Pole in your next adventure✨✨👑👑 This was mine last time (turn on English sub since im indonesian) ruclips.net/video/F1-tueInoN0/видео.html
Such a bittersweet moment! I’ve been watching you’re channel for years and was nervous it would change for the worse once you started van life. No matter how boring the thumbnail was, from Iowa to New England, I learned to trust you both to make quality videos on any topic, anywhere. Good luck with this new chapter. You’re fans will stay with you no matter what you chose to do!!
@@KaraandNate I’ve watched you guys grow from 50k subscribers to here! I even wrapped my parents into watching your new videos and binge watching the old ones!! You’ve really inspired me to travel and learn about the world. Thank you!!!!
Van life doesn't equal boring bro 🤣 why were you nervous about the channel going down hill??. if you leave a channel because their content changes (even slightly), then you only liked the idea, not the people.
I am going to miss the van life videos and seeing more of the United States and its beauty. International travel is great and experiencing other cultures is amazing, but also realizing what the U.S. has in terms of landscape and its beauty.
This chapter coming to an end also feels like we're moving beyond the pandemic. I've been following Kara and Nate far before the pandemic, and remember the videos of their travels in Southeast Asia and Singapore right before major lockdowns. And the beginning and end of van life kind of symbolically marks the beginning and end of the pandemic for me too. Cheers to your future plans
Its so sad to see y'all ending vanlife. I had started watching your content because of how unique vanlife is, and to see you leaving is is sad. I really enjoyed everything you guys did with it
Love Ireland!! Be sure to bring gear for any weather, especially if you plan on going to the beach. Highly recommend going to skerries and getting a crunchie and some hunky dories 😁😁
I'm so glad that you guys get to go back to international travel because it's what you love but I'm also so sad that the 50 states goal in the van sounds like it's not going to be finished. I was so excited to see if you could potentially get the van to Alaska and have so much enjoyed the adventures with Dusty and his wife as well as Rick and his family that you've been able to have in the US. I also think not being from the US myself watching you guys travelling around your home country has been just as exciting as your international travel because it's all international to me! Still if your back on the international travel circuit I say that you have to add my home state of Tasmania in Australia to the list! We have some picturesque mountains to climb, some beautiful (if a little chilly outside of summer) coastline and awesome adventures awaiting!
I really wanted to see the states challenge finish. I had seen eclipse of their international videos on Facebook and I never quite got into it until they were on the state's challenge. I feel it's also more approachable, I may never go to Thailand but I know that crossing off all the states is achievable for myself as well
People like them are running in circles trying to create content for views, recognition and money instead of actually living in the moment to enjoy their lives. I can almost guarantee they will be staying in places, flying to places and doing activities all for free by companies sponsoring them and that's why they are not going to finish what they said they were going to do in the US. Money is king in their world and I thought at this point in their life (after everything they have been through last year), they would be mature enough to actually recognize when to start to live for THEMSELVES instead of for Instagram and RUclips! Until they recognize that huge void in their life and also realize that money isn't everything, they are going to continue to spit out recycled content on their channel!
Honestly doesn’t surprise me that you guys are ending it with the van. It was never what you guys had in mind and just seemed like you guys struggled to be in it. Can’t wait to see more videos though!
I found your channel during the beginning of the pandemic and binged all your travel blogs up until the pandemic hit. I followed along throughout the van life vlogs and am excited you guys are getting back to international travel. Your channel got me through a lot of rough times during the pandemic. Can’t wait to continue watching!
I agree started at the beginning of covid and followed you guys since we even tried to catch you guys on your way through Rhode Island!! We love you guys
I am doing the same on this beautiful Saturday in Utah! Anything you guys choose to do, we (most) will keep following and watching your beautiful videos! You guys are such an inspiring couple. Love y’all 💗💗💗💗
You guys are really becoming amazing filmmakers. The voice over, the chapters, the animation, the the chronology out of order… it’s like a Martin Scorsese movie. Thumbs up!
I’ve been watching Kara and Nate for literal years, I remember all of the amazing things experiences in the 100 countries and I can’t tell you how excited I am for more international travel. At the same time I feel like I was part of the journey through van life and am sad that adventure has come to a close.
YALL JUST HIT 3 MILLION AS I CLICKED ON THIS!!! congrats 🎉 you constantly make the world come alive for those of us who aren’t able to travel like this, and it’s so appreciated. you deserve all the milestones, recognitions, and more! ❤
I say keep the van! It could become a family van to be used by anyone in the family who wants to take a road trip and vacation! It's already prepared for travel and it wouldn't be an extra cost! Looking forward to your adventures this summer!
Nooo :( please don’t leave van life forever. Although I know your channel is an international travel channel your van life videos always make my day watching you figure out van life as you go along. I can’t wait to see what the future holds, but I will miss van life.
I’m so happy that you guys get to start traveling more again! I’m a little sad though because I was so looking forward to the 50 states van life trips! I have loved learning of new places to check out here in the US whenever I’m in new states! I was hoping for more recommendations for the other states. But I absolutely love watching you guys, so it doesn’t matter what you post, I will be here supporting you both! Can’t wait to see what new adventures await.
I came upon your channel when you were in the Philippines and the pandemic hit. It was clear to me that you were a very adventurous and agile force and have really enjoyed your travels via van. You showed that sort of travel or living could be for anyone under any circumstance, part time, full time, anytime. Your spirit is undeniable and I do hope you find your way back to your home on wheels how and whenever your winds take you. Most importantly take care of each other and thanks for taking us on your journey.
I'm planning on doing Van Life with my partner at some point in the future and you guys heavily made me feel more confident in this choice : )) You never hid the challenges but you absolutely enlightened me on how appreciative you can be when life throws you curveballs. Making life exciting and adventurous is everything I've ever wanted and I'm so ready to keep watching you guys on your next journey
I never get sick of you guys, I could watch you every day. With your sense of humor your positive attitude and your playful spirit, it just Elevate my mood and I love how you guys are real and down-to-earth.
As a digital media trader, I feel like I have to credit you guys for converting me to an athletic greens customer!!! This is my first comment on one of your videos but your honest and sincere take on travel is so refreshing and honestly I feel like you guys have made me a bit more easy going by watching your vids. My fiancé will probably thank you guys for it on our honeymoon in the fall. Thanks for all the work you do making these videos not only engaging but so beautiful! Have fun in all the travels to come. Hope to run into you guys one of these days❣️
i’m so sad that the van life is ending right now because i’ve watched yall for over 2 years and y’all have gotten to explore the country in the van but i can’t wait to start watching the traveling videos again! it brings back memories 🥲🥲
I started following you guys when you bought the van and loved seeing you explore the beautiful places that the USA has to offer. I was so excited to see the tour of all 50 states and happy that smaller local businesses were getting some much needed publicity during the difficult pandemic times. It was so, so disappointing when you decided to stop that trip in lieu of international travel and I’m even more disappointed to hear that you guys are giving up van life (at least for now). It’s clear that your hearts have always been with international travel and that van life was just a path to tide you over until travel resumed, but I hope you guys will return to van life and the special USA places soon. I personally just enjoy the van life and USA videos much more and would love to see you complete your visits to all 50 states.
At this point, I love y’all so much I would watch you organize your garage… But I’m not gonna lie… I’m thrilled that you guys are doing international travel again!
Kara, I completely understand how you feel saying goodbye to van life. You and Nate both called the van your home so many times…. Can’t wait to see your next adventure! Blessings and prayers for safe travels! ❤️
I wish you guys would start a podcast! I'd love to be able to listen to you both on the go. Love your perspective and I KNOW there are so many stories to share!
I found you guys recently, and as cheesy as this is going to sound, it’s been a little healing for me. Not physically, but emotionally/spiritually. I had all these big plans to travel. I love it more than anything! But then I got sick. I’m only in my mid-40s but I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to fulfill those dreams now. BUT finding you two has given me so much joy. Pure joy! I’m so glad you took that leap and started traveling. You’ve gained a fan for life and perhaps, some day, a fellow traveler 🙏 ❤️jules
I have binged all of your Mexico vlogs and I think you guys are my new favorite RUclipsrs. You guys seem so humble and with your sponsorships in the video, they are all relevant products that anyone would want to use. Plus you guys are such a cute couple!
I feel like you have more unfinished business in the US. I knew you were never that serious about the 50 states goal, but it's worthwhile. You were doing a great job of showing people's stories across the US, and showing the diverse landscape of places. Plus it gives more people watching something attainable to do (when you aren't staying in 5 figure a night hotels...) Your travels have run the full spectrum of affordability, and I'm glad for you that you can now do pretty much whatever you want, but I do miss the budget version sometimes. (Though this may not translate to the all important RUclips dollars...)
I kinda knew they weren't going to keep doing the van life for long. They're more well known for traveling to different countries, staying in nice hotels, and such which gives us all a peek of what's out there. Best of luck on your next travel chapter.
Through the years that I’ve been watching your channel, I am really grateful for the adventures you guys have taken your viewers on. and even though that you’re not going to be in the van for a while, I’m still very excited for the new chapter of exploration in your life, and for the new exploration for us to tour with you. I can’t wait to see the van again, but for now this is goodbye. You guys are amazing RUclipsr’s and I love you so much.
I don't want van life to end. There have been so many awesome videos that have come out of it, but all good things must come to an end eventually and if this is the end of the van life vlogs, it has been an awesome adventure that I as a follower of your channel have enjoyed so much. Here is to the end of one chapter and the beginning of another.
I am literally freaking out! I found you guys about 4 years ish ago. You guys inspired me to take my first international trip and it changed my life! I’ve watched you guys every week since. I can not believe you are headed back to international travel. I’m so excited and I needed this more than ever. I’ve been nervous since Covid with all the restrictions that I’ve lost my travel bug so I am beside myself to see y’all taking it on again. I hope this will inspire me to get back out there. I can’t wait for your next video!!!!!! Ahhhhh!!! I’m screaming with excitement !!!
Cannot wait to watch you travel internationally again. Found you in 2020 & watched them all to be caught up in 2021. THANK YOU for getting us through the pandemic!
I started watching you at the beginning of the van life. Then, I went back and watched your previous years. I probably shouldn't have done that because I don't want to watch that lifestyle again. That's the lifestyle of living in airports and very strange places. I have enjoyed the van life because it's some thing I know about and can relate to.
I started watching you guys during the pandemic when you bought your van. I’ve absolutely loved seeing you the last two years in van life, through the good and the bad! Whilst it will be sad for the van to go into retirement I can’t wait to see what you’ve got coming up. Thanks guys for being amazing and allowing us a peak into your awesome adventures ❤️ from all the way in NZ
I would love to see your parents film the high/ low lights of there trip in the van! 🖤of course it’s not expected for them to be vloggers. I’m just really interested to see it from a new persons perspective!
THIS IS SO EXCITING! Van life was such an awesome chapter of your lives, and it was really special to watch it all unfold on screen. I'm so excited that you are getting back to what you love to do in the first place! So exciting! The end of an era, but there's so much to come! Congrats, and I'm looking forward to the next video!!!
Aww I can’t believe this is the end of van life!! My heart has sunk 😢 I’ve so enjoyed every video of van life!! This channel has helped me so much over the years… both my parents took cancer and this channel got me through the stress and worry as I had something to look forward too.. I’m looking forward to their international travel.. but I’ll certainly miss van life! What great people I’d love to meet someday!! I hope yous come to Northern Ireland in the future! 🤞🤞
While I enjoyed quite a few of the adventures of van life, I think you guys shine the most when traveling the world and experiencing different cultures. Personally, I would love to see you guys redo Year One of your travels now that you are much more experienced, especially Japan when it opens up. You guys have no idea how much you missed in that country and I think you'd love it.
please please please do not end van life, i love watching you guys travel and take flights but I also love watching you guys in the van experiencing new places and new situations, maybe mix it up yall!!!!
So excited for your next journey! I just wanted to let you know that your videos bring me so much joy, I love your personalities, you both really make me smile no matter how I’m feeling that day. I hope to travel the world like you both one day, your channel brings me so much inspiration and excitement!
To be honest & respect to the I’m sure many folks out there that follow ya’ll for the van life, as a follower since 2017, I’ve sadly kinda moved on from ya’ll to other who are actually going & experiencing what we want to do. Please don’t get me wrong @Kara and Nate. Your content is always top notch & Kara’s editing chops are now stellar. Re van life content, ya’ll just don’t cut it. Ya’ll thrive when going from here to there & taking all of us along. One is truly grateful for the content as it has enriched my life until the past 15 months where, for me, the channel went stale. That said, thank you & keep on keeping on. Regards, Greg, from Paro, Bhutan la.
Thank you for taking us on all of your journeys! Our family started watching you at the beginning of the pandemic, and now it’s our weekly tradition. We are planning our own travels from now with our kids in middle & high school, through when our kids graduate from college. We’ve all spoken into the process and we’re inspired by so many of the places you’ve been. Thank you! We’re excited to watch what the future holds!
You two never fail to entertain. Thanks for all the van life love and we look forward to keeping up with you in the next chapter of your travels. Love that you include your family too. Thanks for inspiring us to go explore our beautiful world 🌎🥰
I was really sad when you guys said " the end". I hope y'all will come back and finish the fifty state goal. Sending love from Louisiana and may the odds be in your favor.
I wanted to write this on an earlier video but this will do. Nate, Your a lucky guy to have a woman who so compassionate and who would sacrifice her hair for other people in need. I am 38 years old and I am still trying to find a woman with half of the compassion and courage that Kara has. God Bless you both in your journeys to come.
My wife Lori introduced me to you guys a few years ago, I never really got attached until Van life started and the adventures with Rick, Dusty and company. Lori and I have talked about van life alot, I’ve been going back and forth for the past two years on a motor home or van. Van is so convenient, motorhome is spacious, hmmmm. Anyway I am sad to see Van life come to an end however I feel like Van is the way to go! I want to share and experience these types of moments with my wife and family. Thank you for being you, thank you for adapting to covid restrictions and sharing this time of your life. Praying for safety on the next chapter. Have fun!
I'm so happy you both are having your best lives. I've lost so much in the last 6 years my husband and my savings to a person who took advantage of my heart and grief. I wish I could travel but I have no one to share the adventure with and I don't know if I want to do it on my own. Al least I can be part of your adventures in a way so thank you for that. Safe travels to you both.
Let's be honest, I'm gonna watch anything you guys make lol. I just love love love your videos. Never stop what you are doing. Looking forward to watching this next chapter. Love from Ireland ♥️
I have been obsessed with your channel because of the international travel videos,, and watched every single one. I will be honest the van videos kind of took away a little bit of the amazingness of your channel. But both your chemistry is the reason why I love you guys and kept watching still. I hope you guys go back to international travel though!
They way the video ended, then it auto played to “We bought a van” so sad to see the van disappear from the channel but I am excited to see what the world has in store!
I’m so excited to see you both get back to international travel! As fun as the van life videos have been, I started watching when you were travelling internationally and they have always been my favs
I discovered your channel a couple of years ago and started watching your videos from the beginning. I'm sad Van Life is coming to an end because I've genuinely loved watching it. I'm also sad that I'm getting to the end of your videos because only watching one each week is just not enough! You guys rock!
hello Kara and Nate.. my name is Heath and I'm a 42yr old single loving father of two incredible children in southeast Arkansas.. I've recently found out about your travels and channel and binge watched almost every video so far.. I've always wanted to travel the world like you two do, but life got in the way.. I became a father and have done nothing but that for the last 16yrs.. I work and take care of them 24-7.. its was always a lifelong dream of my late mother to see the world but unfortunately she never got a chance... and of course her dream.. became my dream... so I sincerely want to thank you both for making these vlogs so I can see the world through your eyes.. I hope to one day be able to make my own memories and visit a few off my bucket list places (starting with the highland of Scotland) many thanks letting us in one y'all wonderful amazing lives.. from one hopeful traveler to the masters!! Heath King.. much love!
Brand new to your vlog and becoming obsessed! So much fun to watch you guys. My husband and 3 daughters are also watching and I am now encouraging our oldest daughter, Anya, and her boyfriend, NATE, to consider travelling after graduation in 2023! Thank you for sharing your journey. Many hugs to you both.
Wow it's the end of an era I have loved following along on your adventures! You guys are awesome and definitely helped inspire us to go on our own adventures. It has been the absolute most amazing experience! I can't wait to see what the future holds! We traveled out of our cars last year and filmed the adventures and this summer are taking a camper that we’ve renovated out to Montana.
Kara and Nate: Thank you, like seriously Thank You. The first video I watched was the Antarctic Cruise series, wanting an escape from my seemingly miserable 2019 travel/life balance as a recent college grad, who travelled a fair bit before graduation. Then 2020 happened: Since then I lost a young cousin to covid, two high school friends as well, I happened to develop two serious medical conditions that will forever change travel for me, and that's on top of being a 1 of 150 ever document medical anomaly. I'm still really, truly struggling to find joy, or get excited to travel, now that the medical conditions have made an already difficult task exponentially more difficult. All this is to say, I can't wait to see what's next, and I've really enjoyed the van life diversion. It's helped me a lot and always gives me something to look forward to on the weekend, even when the Formula 1 season has ended.
Ahhhh! I love your guys content sooo much! My mom and I watch your videos together when you post and it is so special, you guys are absolutely amazing and I love you so much! 💕💕
Omg, I could cry. You two single-handedly got me through the first year of the pandemic. I binged all 700-ish (at the time) videos on your channel of international travel. When international travel was ripped away from you (from all of us), I know you tried to make the best of it for yourselves and for the channel, but it just felt different somehow. Now that the international travel is coming back, I couldn't be more excited for you two, since I get that sense that's where your hearts truly are. And I'm excited for myself to be able to continue binging all of your adventures abroad!
I'll miss the van and the US travelling, coz it's been my favourite era of yours. I've been following for a few years and have watched back further and this period has definitely brought my most favourite adventures!
@Kara and Nate - The biggest factor you guys are going to miss is Leadville and the Family. Hope you do big visit backs often with them. I am sure Van life will see many cameos in those type of visit backs. Anyways have fun, be responsible to your lives and learn more. Good luck
Kara & Nate! I wanted to just say real quick Thankyou. I know you feel like this is a gift (your traveling life) but for me in this season your videos are helping me soo much. More than you know. Hope this lets you know how much it helps some of us. Safe travels!! Keep the videos coming!
Oh my gosh I can't believe it's been over two years that I've been watching you guys😭 you guys have such an amazing story I'm so glad you guys desided to share it with us I can't wait to see your new adventures!! #2022travles Edit: AAAAHHH CONGRATS ON 3M I'M SO HAPPY FOR YALL
Your observation about realizing how dirty things are when you clean for someone else really hit home. When I clean for company and the place looks so good, I wonder why I don't do that more often for myself😥
I don’t usually comment but … it’s crazy to have never met a couple and want such a happy life for them. I have been watching you two for a very long time and I wish nothing but the best for you two. Enjoy your new adventures! Can’t wait to watch ♥️
Honestly this is exciting! I started following you at about 400K subs, I fell in love with the international travel vlogs. Van life has been an exciting “next best thing” to follow, which you guys jumped into without missing a beat! COVID was an impossible situation and you guys made the most of it. But, I’m so excited to see you get back to what you do best, and the REAL K&N content! ✈️ 🎉
Thoughts on this chapter coming to an end? Mixed emotions over here 😬🚐✈️🌎
you should go to the North Pole in your next adventure✨✨👑👑 This was mine last time (turn on English sub since im indonesian) ruclips.net/video/F1-tueInoN0/видео.html
AHHH
Feels unreal
oh man… a lot mixed feeling here
I’m excited for your next chapter :)
End of an era but excited for the journeys to come
they havent done new jersey and other states, what bout them?
@@roniweasly7448 yeah anything like NJ, PA, MD etc
Agreed

Well said ! 👍🤗💛
This truly means so much to us. Thank you Benjamin ❤️
Saaaaaaame! I've been here with them for about 4 years, and no, they never disappoint! Love you guys!♥️♥️ #kara's hiccups were hillarious! 😂

I am going to miss the van life videos and seeing more of the United States and its beauty. International travel is great and experiencing other cultures is amazing, but also realizing what the U.S. has in terms of landscape and its beauty.
I agree
Exactly!
Exactly. Also seems like some of the most fun they have had have been here in the states.
@@tacoma_jon clearly haven’t seen all their international travel videos
This chapter coming to an end also feels like we're moving beyond the pandemic.
I've been following Kara and Nate far before the pandemic, and remember the videos of their travels in Southeast Asia and Singapore right before major lockdowns. And the beginning and end of van life kind of symbolically marks the beginning and end of the pandemic for me too. Cheers to your future plans
Its so sad to see y'all ending vanlife. I had started watching your content because of how unique vanlife is, and to see you leaving is is sad. I really enjoyed everything you guys did with it
I’ve lived vicariously through you guys for years but I want you to know I’ve booked a flight to Ireland for my first epic adventure 🙌🏻
I've loved living in Galway! The small city is a must see, Dunnes Stores and Lidi are great grocery stores on a budget!
Ireland is beautiful! Great wishes to you :)
Ireland is the best place to go overseas the first time. Eat in pubs. Best food lowest prices and get out of Dublin if you can. And bring rain gear.
Love Ireland!! Be sure to bring gear for any weather, especially if you plan on going to the beach. Highly recommend going to skerries and getting a crunchie and some hunky dories 😁😁
I'm so glad that you guys get to go back to international travel because it's what you love but I'm also so sad that the 50 states goal in the van sounds like it's not going to be finished. I was so excited to see if you could potentially get the van to Alaska and have so much enjoyed the adventures with Dusty and his wife as well as Rick and his family that you've been able to have in the US. I also think not being from the US myself watching you guys travelling around your home country has been just as exciting as your international travel because it's all international to me! Still if your back on the international travel circuit I say that you have to add my home state of Tasmania in Australia to the list! We have some picturesque mountains to climb, some beautiful (if a little chilly outside of summer) coastline and awesome adventures awaiting!
Yes, I was wondering about finishing the 50 states also.
Well guess what guys nobody gives a shit
I really wanted to see the states challenge finish. I had seen eclipse of their international videos on Facebook and I never quite got into it until they were on the state's challenge. I feel it's also more approachable, I may never go to Thailand but I know that crossing off all the states is achievable for myself as well
People like them are running in circles trying to create content for views, recognition and money instead of actually living in the moment to enjoy their lives. I can almost guarantee they will be staying in places, flying to places and doing activities all for free by companies sponsoring them and that's why they are not going to finish what they said they were going to do in the US. Money is king in their world and I thought at this point in their life (after everything they have been through last year), they would be mature enough to actually recognize when to start to live for THEMSELVES instead of for Instagram and RUclips! Until they recognize that huge void in their life and also realize that money isn't everything, they are going to continue to spit out recycled content on their channel!
I agree but also Tasmania is a good idea 👍
Looking forward to your international travels once again Kara and Nate!

Nooo :( please don’t leave van life forever. Although I know your channel is an international travel channel your van life videos always make my day watching you figure out van life as you go along. I can’t wait to see what the future holds, but I will miss van life.
I’m so happy that you guys get to start traveling more again! I’m a little sad though because I was so looking forward to the 50 states van life trips!

I'm planning on doing Van Life with my partner at some point in the future and you guys heavily made me feel more confident in this choice : )) You never hid the challenges but you absolutely enlightened me on how appreciative you can be when life throws you curveballs. Making life exciting and adventurous is everything I've ever wanted and I'm so ready to keep watching you guys on your next journey
@@Al_Dente-d1p what do u mean, business partner? She never mentioned the word business…
@@Al_Dente-d1p no... my romantic partner. what?
@@katherinesong29 the guy was probably just trolling. dw, thank you sm though :)
@@kathrynglavin oh ok! Also Just realized out names are both Katherine but spelled differently lol
I never get sick of you guys, I could watch you every day. With your sense of humor your positive attitude and your playful spirit, it just Elevate my mood and I love how you guys are real and down-to-earth.
As a digital media trader, I feel like I have to credit you guys for converting me to an athletic greens customer!!! This is my first comment on one of your videos but your honest and sincere take on travel is so refreshing and honestly I feel like you guys have made me a bit more easy going by watching your vids. My fiancé will probably thank you guys for it on our honeymoon in the fall. Thanks for all the work you do making these videos not only engaging but so beautiful! Have fun in all the travels to come. Hope to run into you guys one of these days❣️
Okay Nate, now we officially need updates from both your parents and grandpop on their van life experiences!!
i’m so sad that the van life is ending right now because i’ve watched yall for over 2 years and y’all have gotten to explore the country in the van but i can’t wait to start watching the traveling videos again! it brings back memories 🥲🥲
I started following you guys when you bought the van and loved seeing you explore the beautiful places that the USA has to offer. I was so excited to see the tour of all 50 states and happy that smaller local businesses were getting some much needed publicity during the difficult pandemic times. It was so, so disappointing when you decided to stop that trip in lieu of international travel and I’m even more disappointed to hear that you guys are giving up van life (at least for now). It’s clear that your hearts have always been with international travel and that van life was just a path to tide you over until travel resumed, but I hope you guys will return to van life and the special USA places soon. I personally just enjoy the van life and USA videos much more and would love to see you complete your visits to all 50 states.
Agree!!!
For me who doesn't live in USA, i'm more happy to see back international traveling
I agree with you! I feel like a lot of Tavel videos is focused internationally. It was nice to see all the activities and small businesses in USA!
I agree. Loved seeing van travel.
Totally agree!
As much as I loved seeing you guys do van life, i'm SO excited that international travel is back!!!
Hey go check out the micro van tour on my new RUclips channel! ruclips.net/video/FIK9z4ZgcD0/видео.html
At this point, I love y’all so much I would watch you organize your garage… But I’m not gonna lie… I’m thrilled that you guys are doing international travel again!
Same.
It was fun watching them put the rack on the van.
Kara, I completely understand how you feel saying goodbye to van life. You and Nate both called the van your home so many times…. Can’t wait to see your next adventure! Blessings and prayers for safe travels! ❤️
Just because a chapter 'ended' does not mean the story is over. Cheers to many, MANY more chapters!! Safe travels until we see you again.
I wish you guys would start a podcast! I'd love to be able to listen to you both on the go. Love your perspective and I KNOW there are so many stories to share!
I found you guys recently, and as cheesy as this is going to sound, it’s been a little healing for me. Not physically, but emotionally/spiritually. I had all these big plans to travel. I love it more than anything! But then I got sick. I’m only in my mid-40s but I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to fulfill those dreams now. BUT finding you two has given me so much joy. Pure joy! I’m so glad you took that leap and started traveling. You’ve gained a fan for life and perhaps, some day, a fellow traveler 🙏 ❤️jules
You’ve got this Julie 💪🏼 reach for those dreams
Honestly, I'm genuinely glad that you guys are going back international travelling!!!
Kara legit saying hi to every animal she sees it’s so sweet
I have binged all of your Mexico vlogs and I think you guys are my new favorite RUclipsrs. You guys seem so humble and with your sponsorships in the video, they are all relevant products that anyone would want to use. Plus you guys are such a cute couple!
I've never seen panic in Kara's face like she showed when Nate was going to drive into the river! 🤣
He wasn’t slowing down 😂😂😂😂
Only when he was driving over the ice!
I feel like you have more unfinished business in the US. I knew you were never that serious about the 50 states goal, but it's worthwhile. You were doing a great job of showing people's stories across the US, and showing the diverse landscape of places. Plus it gives more people watching something attainable to do (when you aren't staying in 5 figure a night hotels...) Your travels have run the full spectrum of affordability, and I'm glad for you that you can now do pretty much whatever you want, but I do miss the budget version sometimes. (Though this may not translate to the all important RUclips dollars...)
I kinda knew they weren't going to keep doing the van life for long. They're more well known for traveling to different countries, staying in nice hotels, and such which gives us all a peek of what's out there. Best of luck on your next travel chapter.
nate is honestly so caring and such a respectful and loyal person! I LOVE THEM & I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF YOU
Through the years that I’ve been watching your channel, I am really grateful for the adventures you guys have taken your viewers on. and even though that you’re not going to be in the van for a while, I’m still very excited for the new chapter of exploration in your life, and for the new exploration for us to tour with you. I can’t wait to see the van again, but for now this is goodbye. You guys are amazing RUclipsr’s and I love you so much.
i love how you guys just go for everything. even if it’s not how you planned it.
I really hope they keep the van because it just has so many memories and let’s be honest it looks really nice
I don't want van life to end. There have been so many awesome videos that have come out of it, but all good things must come to an end eventually and if this is the end of the van life vlogs, it has been an awesome adventure that I as a follower of your channel have enjoyed so much. Here is to the end of one chapter and the beginning of another.
I am literally freaking out! I found you guys about 4 years ish ago. You guys inspired me to take my first international trip and it changed my life! I’ve watched you guys every week since. I can not believe you are headed back to international travel. I’m so excited and I needed this more than ever. I’ve been nervous since Covid with all the restrictions that I’ve lost my travel bug so I am beside myself to see y’all taking it on again. I hope this will inspire me to get back out there. I can’t wait for your next video!!!!!! Ahhhhh!!! I’m screaming with excitement !!!
Hey go check out the micro van tour on my new RUclips channel! ruclips.net/video/FIK9z4ZgcD0/видео.html
I hope to have a relationship like you and Nate sometime! I hope you don’t stop van life forever!
I know. They're actual goals 😂👏🌍
Giggled thru the whole episode. So lucky to have such great parents.
as much as i loved and enjoyed watching van life, i’m so excited for international travel vlogs again!!!
Cannot wait to watch you travel internationally again. Found you in 2020 & watched them all to be caught up in 2021. THANK YOU for getting us through the pandemic!
I started watching you at the beginning of the van life. Then, I went back and watched your previous years. I probably shouldn't have done that because I don't want to watch that lifestyle again. That's the lifestyle of living in airports and very strange places. I have enjoyed the van life because it's some thing I know about and can relate to.
C'mon guys , let's get them to 3 Million Subscribers ASAP!
And I'm gonna miss the Van Videos. I'm quite sad...
I started watching you guys during the pandemic when you bought your van. I’ve absolutely loved seeing you the last two years in van life, through the good and the bad! Whilst it will be sad for the van to go into retirement I can’t wait to see what you’ve got coming up. Thanks guys for being amazing and allowing us a peak into your awesome adventures ❤️ from all the way in NZ
I was getting worried what you guys meant by “end” but im glad and exited for your guys next journey! Sending love
@Karma Corp see I don’t think so but I love watching them either way. Van life is so cool.
Once a van lifer, always a van lifer, it will pull you back before you know it. Have fun. Great series of videos.
I would love to see your parents film the high/ low lights of there trip in the van! 🖤of course it’s not expected for them to be vloggers. I’m just really interested to see it from a new persons perspective!
I can't believe that it has been two years since you bought the van!! I'm excited to see what is next! I love the international Kara and Nate vlogs 😃
THIS IS SO EXCITING! Van life was such an awesome chapter of your lives, and it was really special to watch it all unfold on screen. I'm so excited that you are getting back to what you love to do in the first place! So exciting! The end of an era, but there's so much to come! Congrats, and I'm looking forward to the next video!!!
Thanks Justin 🤗
@@KaraandNate ana-oooooouwuooo
Aww I can’t believe this is the end of van life!! My heart has sunk 😢 I’ve so enjoyed every video of van life!! This channel has helped me so much over the years… both my parents took cancer and this channel got me through the stress and worry as I had something to look forward too.. I’m looking forward to their international travel.. but I’ll certainly miss van life! What great people I’d love to meet someday!! I hope yous come to Northern Ireland in the future! 🤞🤞
While I enjoyed quite a few of the adventures of van life, I think you guys shine the most when traveling the world and experiencing different cultures. Personally, I would love to see you guys redo Year One of your travels now that you are much more experienced, especially Japan when it opens up. You guys have no idea how much you missed in that country and I think you'd love it.
please please please do not end van life, i love watching you guys travel and take flights but I also love watching you guys in the van experiencing new places and new situations, maybe mix it up yall!!!!
So excited for your next journey! I just wanted to let you know that your videos bring me so much joy, I love your personalities, you both really make me smile no matter how I’m feeling that day. I hope to travel the world like you both one day, your channel brings me so much inspiration and excitement!
Y'all make me have such wanderlust!! Have fun on your new adventure!
Love your parents! Hope we get to hear how their Trip and van experience turned out.
Yes! Please! Dying to see how their adventure goes!
Yes, 5 days and no update on them? I need to know how they are!!!!
To be honest & respect to the I’m sure many folks out there that follow ya’ll for the van life, as a follower since 2017, I’ve sadly kinda moved on from ya’ll to other who are actually going & experiencing what we want to do. Please don’t get me wrong @Kara and Nate. Your content is always top notch & Kara’s editing chops are now stellar. Re van life content, ya’ll just don’t cut it. Ya’ll thrive when going from here to there & taking all of us along. One is truly grateful for the content as it has enriched my life until the past 15 months where, for me, the channel went stale. That said, thank you & keep on keeping on. Regards, Greg, from Paro, Bhutan la.
Thank you for taking us on all of your journeys! Our family started watching you at the beginning of the pandemic, and now it’s our weekly tradition. We are planning our own travels from now with our kids in middle & high school, through when our kids graduate from college. We’ve all spoken into the process and we’re inspired by so many of the places you’ve been. Thank you! We’re excited to watch what the future holds!
You two never fail to entertain. Thanks for all the van life love and we look forward to keeping up with you in the next chapter of your travels. Love that you include your family too. Thanks for inspiring us to go explore our beautiful world 🌎🥰
Oh nooooo the van is leaving?!? I love your travels internationally and your adventures with the van domestically.
I was really sad when you guys said " the end". I hope y'all will come back and finish the fifty state goal. Sending love from Louisiana and may the odds be in your favor.
I wanted to write this on an earlier video but this will do. Nate, Your a lucky guy to have a woman who so compassionate and who would sacrifice her hair for other people in need. I am 38 years old and I am still trying to find a woman with half of the compassion and courage that Kara has. God Bless you both in your journeys to come.
My wife Lori introduced me to you guys a few years ago, I never really got attached until Van life started and the adventures with Rick, Dusty and company. Lori and I have talked about van life alot, I’ve been going back and forth for the past two years on a motor home or van. Van is so convenient, motorhome is spacious, hmmmm. Anyway I am sad to see Van life come to an end however I feel like Van is the way to go! I want to share and experience these types of moments with my wife and family. Thank you for being you, thank you for adapting to covid restrictions and sharing this time of your life. Praying for safety on the next chapter. Have fun!
I'm so happy you both are having your best lives. I've lost so much in the last 6 years my husband and my savings to a person who took advantage of my heart and grief. I wish I could travel but I have no one to share the adventure with and I don't know if I want to do it on my own. Al least I can be part of your adventures in a way so thank you for that. Safe travels to you both.
Let's be honest, I'm gonna watch anything you guys make lol. I just love love love your videos. Never stop what you are doing. Looking forward to watching this next chapter. Love from Ireland ♥️
Hey go check out the micro van tour on my new RUclips channel! ruclips.net/video/FIK9z4ZgcD0/видео.html
Your van life vids are what got me in to your channel. I'm really sad it's ending but excited for you both on whatever comes next
I have been obsessed with your channel because of the international travel videos,, and watched every single one. I will be honest the van videos kind of took away a little bit of the amazingness of your channel. But both your chemistry is the reason why I love you guys and kept watching still. I hope you guys go back to international travel though!
They way the video ended, then it auto played to “We bought a van” so sad to see the van disappear from the channel but I am excited to see what the world has in store!
I’ll continue to watch no matter how or where you travel. I love watching your videos!
Loved the pics from Louis & Raya’s wedding! Thanks for those. Can’t wait to see what’s next for you. It will be awesome!
I’m so excited to see you both get back to international travel! As fun as the van life videos have been, I started watching when you were travelling internationally and they have always been my favs
I discovered your channel a couple of years ago and started watching your videos from the beginning. I'm sad Van Life is coming to an end because I've genuinely loved watching it. I'm also sad that I'm getting to the end of your videos because only watching one each week is just not enough! You guys rock!
I'm sad that the van life Era is ending but I'm excited to see what new adventures are yet to come!!
Life’s one big adventure, good luck on your next ones! We’ll miss seeing y’all in the van but excited to see what’s next!!
Excited to see what comes next in your adventures! Nate looks just like his mama. Safe travels!
hello Kara and Nate.. my name is Heath and I'm a 42yr old single loving father of two incredible children in southeast Arkansas.. I've recently found out about your travels and channel and binge watched almost every video so far.. I've always wanted to travel the world like you two do, but life got in the way.. I became a father and have done nothing but that for the last 16yrs.. I work and take care of them 24-7.. its was always a lifelong dream of my late mother to see the world but unfortunately she never got a chance... and of course her dream.. became my dream... so I sincerely want to thank you both for making these vlogs so I can see the world through your eyes.. I hope to one day be able to make my own memories and visit a few off my bucket list places (starting with the highland of Scotland)
many thanks letting us in one y'all wonderful amazing lives.. from one hopeful traveler to the masters!!
Heath King..
much love!
Brand new to your vlog and becoming obsessed! So much fun to watch you guys. My husband and 3 daughters are also watching and I am now encouraging our oldest daughter, Anya, and her boyfriend, NATE, to consider travelling after graduation in 2023! Thank you for sharing your journey. Many hugs to you both.
Wow it's the end of an era I have loved following along on your adventures! You guys are awesome and definitely helped inspire us to go on our own adventures. It has been the absolute most amazing experience! I can't wait to see what the future holds! We traveled out of our cars last year and filmed the adventures and this summer are taking a camper that we’ve renovated out to Montana.
🤗🌎🙏🏻
Kara and Nate: Thank you, like seriously Thank You.
The first video I watched was the Antarctic Cruise series, wanting an escape from my seemingly miserable 2019 travel/life balance as a recent college grad, who travelled a fair bit before graduation.
Then 2020 happened: Since then I lost a young cousin to covid, two high school friends as well, I happened to develop two serious medical conditions that will forever change travel for me, and that's on top of being a 1 of 150 ever document medical anomaly. I'm still really, truly struggling to find joy, or get excited to travel, now that the medical conditions have made an already difficult task exponentially more difficult.
All this is to say, I can't wait to see what's next, and I've really enjoyed the van life diversion. It's helped me a lot and always gives me something to look forward to on the weekend, even when the Formula 1 season has ended.
Ahhhh! I love your guys content sooo much! My mom and I watch your videos together when you post and it is so special, you guys are absolutely amazing and I love you so much! 💕💕
Omg, I could cry. You two single-handedly got me through the first year of the pandemic. I binged all 700-ish (at the time) videos on your channel of international travel. When international travel was ripped away from you (from all of us), I know you tried to make the best of it for yourselves and for the channel, but it just felt different somehow. Now that the international travel is coming back, I couldn't be more excited for you two, since I get that sense that's where your hearts truly are. And I'm excited for myself to be able to continue binging all of your adventures abroad!
I'll miss the van and the US travelling, coz it's been my favourite era of yours. I've been following for a few years and have watched back further and this period has definitely brought my most favourite adventures!
PLEASE DONT STOP VAN LIFE
I've loved your van life chapter & am looking forward to continuing following along on your adventures - wherever they take you! ❤️😊
We actually found you guys when you got the van and SO GLAD WE DID! Excited to continue to watch you travel
@Kara and Nate - The biggest factor you guys are going to miss is Leadville and the Family. Hope you do big visit backs often with them. I am sure Van life will see many cameos in those type of visit backs. Anyways have fun, be responsible to your lives and learn more. Good luck
Kara & Nate! I wanted to just say real quick Thankyou. I know you feel like this is a gift (your traveling life) but for me in this season your videos are helping me soo much. More than you know. Hope this lets you know how much it helps some of us. Safe travels!! Keep the videos coming!
I started following you when you were travelling across Russia on a train, time really flew by! very excited for your new international adventures!
This is generally the best channel to grace the internet 😊 you are both amazing
Oh my gosh I can't believe it's been over two years that I've been watching you guys😭 you guys have such an amazing story I'm so glad you guys desided to share it with us I can't wait to see your new adventures!! #2022travles
Edit: AAAAHHH CONGRATS ON 3M I'M SO HAPPY FOR YALL
Your observation about realizing how dirty things are when you clean for someone else really hit home. When I clean for company and the place looks so good, I wonder why I don't do that more often for myself😥
I don’t usually comment but … it’s crazy to have never met a couple and want such a happy life for them. I have been watching you two for a very long time and I wish nothing but the best for you two. Enjoy your new adventures! Can’t wait to watch ♥️
Honestly this is exciting! I started following you at about 400K subs, I fell in love with the international travel vlogs. Van life has been an exciting “next best thing” to follow, which you guys jumped into without missing a beat! COVID was an impossible situation and you guys made the most of it. But, I’m so excited to see you get back to what you do best, and the REAL K&N content! ✈️ 🎉
I am so excited!! I’ve been waiting for you guys to start traveling internationally again for sooo long!! Can’t wait to see your future adventures!
Hi how're you doing
