Who are Kara and Nate?!
Watch our documentary here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuFv4iF8wgg&t=1s
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 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!

34:30 My uncle lives in Prescott so I know that town
OMG! You guys were hanging out at my local bar (the depot) eating pizza and I missed it!! I'm legit sad 😢😂
Welcome to AZ! Or, should I say, ..
Come back soon & safe travels
Awesome video as always Kara and Nate. Kara and Nate y'all's cooking looks so delicious. Let's go D.C or bust.
Girl math is hilarious lol
A question from a dumb Dutchie. But what does it mean if you have no shoulder?
You guys are absolutely phenomenal I cannot get enough of your awesome adventures.❤❤❤❤ I love living vicariously through you guys 🙂 have fun be safe can't wait till you guys get to Colorado. Love you guys
Love your joke, Kara! 😂❤❤❤
In Australia, police will escort anything as long as it’s big enough to actually block the entire road. I’ve seen it before.
This is a great challenge, I'm just wondering why you are not doing it for charity ? With your audience and Christmas coming up it would have nice to see you guys collect funds for an organisation 😊
Can y’all do a tour of Rick & Beck’s van?? Looks like they’ve made some upgrades since the Colorado trail 😁
I want to know what the cookie recipe is!! Please 🥺 😅 Awesome video!
Corn starch for the store butt!!! It wicks away moisture, and reduces friction 😅
I followed every single day. Just loved you and everything you did. So real and so adventurous! You’re an inspiration and don’t ever forget it. I hope you aren’t so sad anymore. I know the depression and it’s so real. I’m always waiting for another “Chasing Blazes” video! ❤❤

Biking in the US is so dangerous. Thank you for highlighting that!
Don't mind me over here chuckling happily at the flush sound added to the outhouse clip 😀
