Thank you Paukan Cruises! paukan.com/ Never thought Kara would get to dance on stage at a young monk’s novice ceremony! Days 6 and 7 of our Myanmar river cruise up the Irrawaddy consisted of the 2 riverside villages we got to visit. We are loving Myanmar more everyday :)

Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the travel bug! We started “travel hacking” and taking more trips together and finally decided we wanted to travel for one year. After 2 years of saving $ and travel hacking over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left January 10, 2016. We started this TH-cam 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 THREE years :) Now we have a goal of traveling to 100 countries before Nate turns 30 (which is March 20, 2019)! We are incredibly thankful to do something we love every day. :)

The Myanmar series is probably the most uplifting you guys have done. Thank you. Buddhists meditate on the feeling of loving kindness. Myanmar is a nation that is dominantly Theravada Buddhist (so am I). I am so moved by the genuine happiness and innocence of these people, and I think the Buddha's teachings had a lot to do with it. The rest of the world has much to learn about the real meaning of life from these beautiful folks. Have you ever seen kids that are so happy and fearless? People who are completely and authentically humble and quick to show their happiness and contentment? Even though they are Buddhists, they exemplify everything that Jesus taught about how to live. Western civilization could use a serious lesson about what is really important, and it isn't money, power and wealth! I wonder if Kara and Nate got a life-changing lesson from their brief experience there. Excellent and important blogging you guys! Kara (and Nate, too), bless you for feeling the all the positive energy with your open heart. You just met people who live as we were meant to live, IMHO. There is a profound lesson we all should learn from the people of Myanmar.
ellisberg , Watching the faces of those kids, made me smile. They are so sweet!.
people of myanmar are so beautiful both inside and out....love from Nepal!!
thanks
Exactly 😁
We are both tibeto burman and nepal and burmese are come from same ancestor.Hello brother from myanmar.
Thanks, Love you Nepal
If I went to all these places, I think I'd want to give all the locals so much! They are so sweet and a small amount of money must go so far for them
I just love the Myanmar series because it shows the simplicity of the country and the people's lives. Great video!! :)
You two are the greatest goodwill ambassadors!! The people you are visiting brighten your day, but I think your humble presence and interactions really add joy to their day too! I am always looking forward to your next vlog!
They are both sweet and lovely
Again, what do we have to do to nominate these two for the Nobel Peace Prize?
People who never been to Myanmar may have negative senses about our people but I believe that you will absolutely see honesty, friendly, kindness and innocent smiles of our burmese people if you have visited.
Thanks you Kara & Nate for this amazing video
Mum is too kind and happiest in her world….
This is amazing. Those people were just so wonderful and lovely. Between the hilarious pottery maker lady who threw shade at Nate, to the lovely old gal who sold Kara that mini paddle, I just love this place and it's people.
It literally broke my heart that the grandparents spent $6,000, their life savings, on this little party that would likely cost us Westerners just a few hundred dollars. Seeing things like this always puts the things we take for granted into a more realistic perspective. ❤
FireCracker3240 hiring live entertainment and enough food to feed over a hundred people would only cost you a few hundred dollars?
FireCracker3240 -dfkjj
@@byrongotcha in myanmar, probably. bc things r cheaper. like those pots were a dollar each OuO.
That old lady has the most adorable smile! So precious!
This vlog brought tears to my eyes. Thank you for sharing your experience with this beautiful community. While many may feel anger that you are visiting a country with such a horrific government what many seem to fail to get is how Western Capatalism profits from the traditional artisans. One dollar for a pot that is sold for well over 200 in the USA is outrageous, saddening and beyond comprehension. The people are not their government. Thank you again - you two are so genuine and so amazing.
My sentiments exactly.
Thanks for understanding to my country Myanmar
Monica, feel sorry for those who exploit these people. You won't find them to be as happy and content as those who you see as being exploited. Those who profit off these people are miserable and unhappy souls in comparison, and they do not know the path to wisdom and serenity. So, the exploiters will always be the sad, angry and greedy people who suffer the most inside because of simple ignorance about what is truly valuable. They will never look as happy as these people unless the exploiters are feigning a smile. The Burmese people clearly know the secrets to a happy life; those who exploit and profit off of them don't. It is probably best to take pity on the soulless wretches who don't know or understand the true nature of living. (And, for the record, capitalism has absolutely nothing to do with it... the unenlightened who seek power over others always find a way to be harmful and malevolent).
Isn't great to go somewhere and be basically the only tourists in town? Well done to show the real people and their way of life. Back in the 1990s, we were in a country similar then to what is Myanmar is now and we also bought a souvenir that came with recycled newspaper made in a carry bag like you did. over twenty years later we still have the carry bag as the souvenir.
One of my favourites places y'all have visited is Myanmar. The cruise is so good. The people are so sweet and the kids are so cute ❤️❤️❤️
You guys go places that no one even would go. Very cute village and the people are so sweet.
Yes, thats the majority real people living in Myanmar in poverty but in simplicity and benevolence not having learnt political science, propagandas, marketing, story telling, pretending or acting, all of which are the survival skill of modern world.
Thank, kara ,Myanmar is my country.
Kara's just so adorable! She's a like a kid in a candy store, getting excited about everything. Though I can't blame her. I do that pretty much every time I travel anywhere new!
I am kinda the same. I get excited about even little things when I travel
I love how excited about the smallest things she gets!
Also, that is the cutest, happiest, smiliest pig I've ever seen. ❤❤
This is the best video of all time th-cam.com/video/9mWppX7CAzY/w-d-xo.html
What blows me away is that final shot - look how close to shore that boat can get!
Thank you guys for showing how these people lived and how kind they are to the world. It just making me so happy to see this vlogs about my country and make me want to go back.
Thank you so much for showing this to us. It made me so emotional to see the lovely people there living their life and being happy.
Iam amazed to see this beautiful kids with a big smile on their faces .. Kara u r so outgoing and frank.. Love it
I am so pleased with this video, it shows genuine happiness that you guys are experiencing! Growing up in the states I’ve never really gotten the to know how life was back in homeland. Growing up I’ve always been proud of where I came from soon to realize that not a lot people were aware of where Burma was. I thought I knew the country but little did I know I was just starching a tiny bit of it. I would like to go back one day and just explore eggs country because there is so much to discover!
This was literally one of the Best episodes I've seen for a long time! Amazing the people, children and especially the craftsmanship was stunning!!! Great job you two :)
Kara, you are the best! There is nothing better than a person who loves and embraces life.
I truly enjoyed this installment of your journeys. Reaching out and interacting with so many wonderful people is a gift from Heaven.
I can not even begin to thank the both of you for being so amazing and welcoming to the people you meet, Thank you for sharing your experiences with us.....and I am still amazed that people do not like the videos you share........
Omw so many emotions and thoughts throughout this vlog. I like how you pointed out the people don't do this for the tourists but that is their daily life. I'm extra greatful for all I have been blessed with and will think more about it as I go thro my day today. Thanks for thr lovely vlog!!!!! 😊
Love u both sweet pies in this cruel world. Love your smiles and comfort everywhere. Real celebrities
Kara you look so happy being pulled on stage like that! How those women make so many pots is beyond me. Looks like an amazing country, I can't wait to visit.
Thank you for sharing the bright side of Myanmar that not alot of people are trying to find out
This vlog was exceptionally good. My vocabulary is failing to come up with something that i felt, but surely a smile ran across for 9 minutes and 50 seconds.
💜😁
Thank you so much for letting us come on your journey with u. Truly amazing! 💖
Thank YOU so much for watching💛
Thank you for the compliment to our myanmar/burmese people
For what it's worth, I think you two should revisit Myanmar and do some in-depth reportage of the culture there for the benefit of all those who follow your channel. It (and also Bhutan) may be the model we should look to if we ever have to rebuild our civilization. Your open minds and hearts make me proud of you as Americans.
Today's vlog was so peaceful and soothing ...I enjoyed it a lot ...Thank u guys 💕💕💕💕💕
Great to hear! :)
Myanmar: Shameful anniversary highlights lack of accountability for atrocities against Rohingya
'This anniversary marks a shameful milestone. By its continued failure to hold to account those responsible for crimes against humanity, the international community risks sending the message that Myanmar’s military will not only enjoy impunity but will be allowed to commit such atrocities again. We must not let this happen.'
'Lack of political will, not a lack of evidence, is at the root of the international community’s inaction. It is undeniable that Myanmar’s security forces committed crimes against humanity against the Rohingya. But while the international community drags its feet deciding what to do about it, vital evidence risks disappearing or being destroyed.'

You guys really brighten my day!
These kind of comments make ours ❤😁
Thanks kara and nate for such amazing lovely video of Myanmar
MY GOD!! DAT OLD LADY WITH THE PADDLE PADDLE WAS TOOO CUTE AND ADORABLE !!! REALLY EARTHLY VOICE SHE HAD. BEAUTIFUL LADY :)
Your appreciation for the people and simplicity there is jut beautiful to see.
Great video!! I love your interactions with the locals - and the children are so precious!!
I miss Myanmar 😭😭😭. It been 11 years.
OMG, that card/ air hockey game at the end= total genius! What a wonderful vlog
Oh KARA, of course you jumped up on stage. Perfect! Love it
Proof that money and happiness are in no way correlated !
Kara sounded so so cute when she spoke their language on stage 😍
This one of the most wholesome travel videos I've seen all quarantine. It almost made me cry at some points.
Seeing you both with the children makes me smile 😍
How adorable were those people in that village awwww ....the little mini paddle was so cute....it must be so hard not to but souvenirs from all the places like this I mean I know you have to carry it still must be hard
So beautiful ! Just gets better and better. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us
Thanks for introducing a beautiful country
Your sound editing in this is amazing, Kara! You can really tell you work so hard and put so much effort into every video!
Such nice & kind people. Have not been corrupted by the modern world.
Beautiful party and beautiful colours of their clothes like the country and very kind people as well very hard worker thank you for sharing love your video .
Salute.. Hardworking and not lazy.. Greeting from Indonesia.. 🖐
And I would definitely say, your Myanmar trip had need the best. So much of warmth and love.
I am embarrassed that your Indi ia trip turned out like that...I hope one day you will be able to see the other side of it too.
Lots of love and good wishes from India.
P.S- I am in college right now. And me and my friend want to travel like you people but we need to find ways out. It's hard when you are from a middle class family. For now we are working hard to study good and improve our skills in whatever we are doing.But we are just so unsure about how to get it done. Once I started my own home baking small business ,but had to quit it because of study and all.
But when I see your videos I just get so much of inspiration to hope for the best.
Who was surprised when Kara suddenly appeared on stage? Well. Not me....LOL
AndySwede58 Yes I’m with you on that 🤣💞
I love her spirit.
Kara forever
I love that you guys aren't afraid to get in there an experience their culture in a genuine way! I never knew Myanmar was so gorgeous until we saw your river cruise videos! id you feel safe the entire time? I know you guys have mentioned that the political tensions are far from where you're visiting, but in general?
Chase for Adventure man, as a typical Myanmar, we just hate the foreign policies of US and UK but we don’t hate people of those countries. We have enough teaching from our religion to differentiate good and bad things.
In general, its safe politically.
The conflicted area is at the western-most border line a few hundred miles with Bangladesh.
The travellers are in the main land thousand miles away. Safer than other most crowded popular international destinations coz its rural, not crowded, but just village people and normal people earning for their livelihoods and struggling their daily lives here.
Not whole country is at war! Just at the rims.
Main land is politically safe but like most other cities, there are thieves, mugs, and other usual crimes of human societies.
Plz experience urself myanmar culture, lovely and authentic, down-to-earth and so rich as we have over 130 ethnicities and cultures, most benevolent and generous.
no pretense, no propagandas, and just not enough marketing. Maybe covered by other propaganda like whole country was at war and all people were war mongers and all devils.
Myanmar people are friendly and helpful wearing smiles whenever they see foreign tourists or are asked for info or help. They never hesitate to help. People are just normal people. They would like to have a peaceful life, a safe life, a sufficien income to sustain their lives and a happy family life, and ability to do good deeds and contributions at least to their family, and community and society as a while.
People are just people but these are with love and kindness at heart taught and imprinted by their 2000-years-old culture. Benevolence and helpfulness are innate in blood line. But people are just people not saints.
@@thawmawsoeaung9174, well said! Americans (as well as all people) who visit Burma would do well to learn WHY people in Myanmar remain happy. I believe strongly that it is from the Buddha's dharma and I was happy to see someone reveal the "secret".
You do such a superb job of capturing the essence of the people and their culture. Wonderful video 👏.
Looks like wonderful experiences visiting local villages!
Like other people are saying, Kara and Nate are something else among other travel vlog youtubers. My thought is, it's because you don't exhibit fancy pancy stuff, mostly simple and normal gestures from every day life which make most of your fans can relate and feel connected.....
May be because you guys are down to earth. Always thrill to watch you.....!
U guys r enjoying the fullest....God bless you guys...May ur all dreams come true💐💐💐💐
I come to you all for a hit of grounded in love and joy humanity after looking at the troubled and troubling happenings in our country and other parts of the world. Love Upon Love Y'all! Love Upon Love!
So Lovely Video I have ever seem! And Thanks in Million! 💕💕💕
Thanks to you both making this video. I miss my home more after watching this. I m from Myanmar. I just had a vacation to my country Myanmar. After watching this video I miss my country more.
Most heartwarming vlog to date! Thank you!!
Oh gosh ; that part of pot making was so magical ! Have the villagers applied sandal or something like that on their face ?
Its a herbal tree bark paste. Wear to block sun rays, skin cooling and healing, and as cosmetic. Called "That Nat Khar" . It serves as natural make-up for Burmese people sinceancient time.
Very informative and interesting to see life outside our couch potato lives. Very inspirational for us to work harder. Would like to see more details. Many thanks
Great fun ay myanmar country side💝💝💝👏👏
Love, Love Love!!!! Thank you for showing the beauty in every person you meet!!!
This amazing country is where I was born

I was just fixing to walk out the door when the notification that another video was ready popped up in my email. My world stops for Kara and Nate. Great video! The people seem so laid back and easy going.
Please go to the orphanages! I’ve been to Myanmar twice but my dad has been there 14 times. We go to the orphanages, the main one being called Love Children Home,” for mission trips
