Kids, you have no idea how much I love you and your adventures, as did my wife. You have taken us on adventures that we will never be able to experience on our own because of our age, and now, sadly, I must change the pronoun too, me, as my wife of 83 years passed away last year. Our only adventures included England, Scotland, Wales, and Ireland with a couple of side trips to Paris. The reason was that, although we were both American, we met and were married in England and felt most comfortable there. Thank you so very much for the joy that you gave my wife before her passing last year. It truly helped her through her most difficult moments as a victim of Alzheimer's.
I really appreciated the de-brief. I’m your mom’s age and there was one frame during the 100 race when your mom was looking at you and I could read the concern in her eyes. I so connected with her- every mom knows just what I’m talking about. Your children never stop being your babies. You never stop worrying about them. Crap…😭😭😭
This! I know the exact moment you’re talking about bc I recognized it too and it about brought me to tears. She had to make sure her baby was doing ok🥹
I am a mother of two and step mother of 3… each one is truly loved with no division. I now have 16 grandchildren and 3 great grandchildren all loved. After becoming a parent I asked my mother of seven when does the worry stop , her reply. The worries never stop they just change. That’s when I asked why didn’t you warn me? She just smiled and said, you wouldn’t have listened.
Can I just say how I appreciate you guys talking about getting into tiffs? It’s ok and good not to show it but addressing the fact that not every relationship is argument free or skipping/editing over it, makes me love you guys even more ❤️
I love the new honesty and more genuine content you guys are putting out. For a while there it was too cold, over edited and it didn't feel like we were seeing much personality. Keep up these great videos ❤️
It's bc they are changing, you didn't see much personality, bc there was none to see. They are very systematic, straight and narrow kind of people...They are finally growing now and coming of age and gaining a little character now that they are doing what the truly want Vs doing it for the views/goals lol It also feels like Kara is over it all.
You guys always know how to make my weekend better. About to sit back for the next wonderful 45 minutes and enjoy a brand new travel vlog from my favorite TH-camrs on the planet! Hopefully one day, I’ll get to do what you guys do. I appreciate both of you for helping my mental state and pushing me to want to achieve more. Love ya Kara and Nate!!!
@@KaraandNate I always do! Never missed an episode since I started following yall in 2018! You guys show people from all walks of life, how hard work, dedication and perseverance can pay off if you push at your goals.
I took my two kids to Maui. One adult and 2 teenagers… for 11 days. We only spent 400 dollars and that was on frills and souvenirs for the kids! We stayed at the Grand Wailea in the (Miles!) upgraded Napua Suites. We rented a car on points. We ate on points! We flew on points! It was the best vacation! Especially because my oldest had the greatest time swimming with turtles about 20 hours a day. Never seen him so free and happy! He passed away, shortly after we came home.😢 What a send off. I will never forget our time together. ❤️
Wow that was quite a send off, sorry for your loss. Out of curiousity, those suites are about $5k/nt or 1.2 million points/nt each. That's 13 Million points just for a room, right? And with the flights, meals, car etc you must have spent probably 30 million points. How do you acquire that many points? I'm genuinely curious because it takes me forever to accrue points. Thanks!
I love noticing how much you two have changed over the years. Nate is so relaxed now and Kara is becoming "Old Lady"😂😂 I have throughly enjoyed following your journey and adventures. Kara.. you're the most upbeat and joyful person. We all have Old Lady Days. ❤
Over 30 tipsy tour is the best. I giggled through the entire tour and just nodded along because I totally related to every bit of it. Y'all just never disappoint.
We’re in our mid-30s and I told my husband while watching this, “I love that we’re growing old with Nate and Kara.” 🤣 Every single thing was just so stinkin’ relatable.
I don't know what about this I found so funny, but I literally LOLed when I read your comment. 🙂 (I'm already old, so can't really relate, but it was still funny.)
Hi Kara and Nate, I was thinking about a video idea, I know you guys don't know me but i am an Australian 13 year old who has been watching your videos with her family for a while now. Because you guys do a big ride every year like the Ragbrai and the Colorado trail. In 2025 an idea I had was in winter most likely, to do a bike ride from Perth Australia to Brisbane, or Darwin to Adelaide. Of course its just an idea and both are a very long way, but if you already have one you don't have to do this but to do this with dusty and Sarah and Rick and Bec and of course the kids! I would love for you to see Australia again after your last visit a while ago.❤❤ Thank you for taking your time to read this, Caitlyn ( Aussie fan)
The two longest relationship I have outside my friends and family are my barber and Kara and Nate 😂. My barber keeps me feeling good about myself and Kara and Nate just make me feel happy! The reality is most of us will not live the life they do but I absolutely love living vicariously through these two! I feel their outlook on travel and new experiences are similar to mine so it really is as if I’ve done all this 😂
I love that you guys are saying your mid 30s is old…I’m 64, feel the best I’ve ever felt and travel the world alone. Only responsible for myself, can do what I want when I want😊 love you guys!
My wife and I loved this video! It felt like the good ole days of just following along with whatever happened that day just with better music 😂. Congratulations Nate on finishing the Leadville 100! You’ve motivated me. I’m now training for a race this winter and running more than I ever have.❤
That was so sweet to gift that couple celebrating their 15 year wedding anniversary some champagne. It was even sweeter that the flight attendants gifted it to them and y'all! My hubs and I are celebrating 17 years married 12/01. I wish we had the opportunity to have a honeymoon or even a wedding dress. Lol we were so broke! And we were expecting at the time. Literally 4 months to the day of our wedding our daughter was born ❤️ best wedding gift ever. We spent maybe $500 on our wedding. That was just food & cake. And we are still together. Just remember it's not about the "stuff" it's about your love and commitment to each other. That man is my best friend in the whole world. We LOVE watching your videos together. Keep doing what y'all are doing. We love you both ❤ so happy we happened upon your account about a year or so ago. Best and most wholesome videos. The whole family watches together. 😊
A tip for all of you nearing a pool and wonder if someone have peed in it. Chlorine reacts to urine, and the stronger the smell of chlorine the moore contaminated the water is. Strong smelling pool? Don't dive in.. This place was beautiful, the beach looked heavenly. Thank you for sharing guys!
Thank you!!! People look at me like I’m crazy when I tell them about the smell of chlorine and urine. But I watched a documentary about it years ago and there you go
Kara shame on you for saying you are OLD at 33. I must be geriatric at 53. 😂. When I book a hotel I always ask for it to be in a quiet area. But a resent trip to Bali for work had me near booming music till 1am. At was some rave party all weekend, I was at lectures all day and wake half the night. That’s when I 😢realised I’m old. Thanks for the ear plugs reception. Book an adventure to Portugal in June 2026, I will be at a Midwifery Conference. We can meet up for coffee. Can you take your friend’s girls on a Disney Cruise and review. I would love to see what you think. Love Perth Western Australia 🇦🇺
Your debrief comment made me teary. I find that to be really inspirational and motivational for something I’m about to do. Thank you for sharing Nate and thank you Kara for promoting Nate sharing that.
Absolutely love catching up with yall! Side note, THANK YOU KARA for showing your personal workout with Nourish,Move,Love’s TH-cam channel! It’s because of you that I found her channel and have completely turned around my physical wellbeing and fitness(y’all help my mental wellbeing. 😉)! Love yall! Keep it up! ♥️♥️
it happened before my eyes but i just noticed that over the course of like 7 years, you guys have become one of my top three youtube channels to exist 🌟
Awesome video as always Kara and Nate. Y’all are the miles and points masters y’all are an Infinite pool of knowledge about miles and points. Thanks for letting us ride along with y’all on y’all’s adventures.
Loved the Leadville video so much I’m going to watch it for a 3rd time after this video ❤❤❤ Just the teamwork between y’all warms my heart. The world needs more of ALL YALL who were on Nate’s team. Y’all had the BEST team I could see, by far! I know Nate will pick an awesome place to take Kara for vacation. Kara, just sit back & ENJOY!!!! 👊🏼🤗🤗
God i don’t know how you guys are able to go back to normal life after doing accomplishments this hard. This is exactly why people watch you, keep up the good work❤❤🎉🎉🎉
How much do we love Kara and Nate? So much that even as avid college football fans, we turned to this video during all the primetime games. My wife and I wiped away so many joyful tears over your past two videos, and were so thrilled to watch this reward vacation for y’all. Thank you for all the work you do putting into these videos. They’re filled with so much joy and are very encouraging.
Hope Nate and Kara enjoyed their time in Mexico! Also, LOVE that Airolo is one of your sponsors, they also sponsor a spamming channel I follow where a group of guys spam spammers, so you know it’s safe!
So happy Nate got some well deserved R&R! The Leadville 100 video was so awesome! By the way, I'm a journalist for a small paper in Titusville, Pa., and they are getting ready to hold their annual Oil Creek 100 in a few weeks. I was interviewing the race director for an article, and she was mentioning things like aid stations, crew, and pacers. I kept nodding my head each time, thinking about Nate and the whole gang!!! If Nate could do the Leadville 100 at high elevation, he would crush the Oil Creek 100!
Watching you run 100 miles gave me the motivation to take the leap and sign up for my first marathon the day before my 37th bday in March 2025. I run regularly but have always let the fear of not finishing stop me. Not this time!! ❤❤
I still can’t get over the 100 mile video I think the video was a milestone in itself for your channel it was absolutely amazing. Not saying your other videos aren’t but it just felt so special made me feel like I was there with yall.
how do i say this... I've had to pause the video, ... basically I want to tell y'all how much I appreciate your candid life, I'm mean you're on vacation and you still invited me along aaand taught me something about how you did it all for free/miles. Any way I'm proud of both of y'all's achievements and thanks again for taking me along on all of them. Lord bless ya!
i love love love y'all's honestly and bluntness in this video! it's been showing more and more lately and it makes it easier to connect to yall. big fan for years, by far my favorite couple on youtube! Glad you guys enjoyed yourselves!
Pro tip: Mexican domestics flights are typically 1/10 the price of international flights from a nearby region/ same mileage. What that means is that a flight to the same destination, from San Diego vs Tijuana, can differ by thousands of dollars. In the future, look at travel variations that use San Diego as a pivot point for MX travel. You can ride the train/ trolley from as far as LA, walk over the border, then fly out of Tijuana. It will save you thousands!
I just strive to have as many great memories in my life as you guys are creating... I love how close the both of yall are together! Always waiting for the next one!
The Leadville 100 race video was awesome! So stoked to see the recovery on the other side. The story on insta was a blast! Even the pool vs ocean survey questions......
Let me start by saying we love you guys been watching from the start,My husband and I don't fly we do our vacations by car but dont go out of the country.Our next adventure is going to Maine, New Hampshire,Vermont were from CT in our 60,s for our 25th anniversary you guys have given me so much inspiration to push on keep going so let the adventure begin, Enjoy your vacation you two deserve it.
And NML loves you Kara!! Thanks for sweating (like really sweating) with us in Mexico, but next time can we come with you!! Looks like an awesome and well deserved getaway for you two!
The Leadville 100 video was great and now watching you guys is fun, funny, and it makes me happy watching you guys having a great vacation. Also you guys are the best and the funniest TH-camrs ever. And I love your videos too. ❤
Love yall. I could hear the pain in Nate’s voice using points to pay for taxes and fees. That was a lot of points too. Nice vacation thanks for sharing
That’s a well deserved vacation for Nate after that’s crazy endurance run! Also, Kara deserves this break just as much for tirelessly running everything flawlessly in the background, despite quietly enduring her health issues! Love you guys! ❤
When I was a child, I was told that if I peed in a pool there would be a colored mark all around me, and everyone would knew what I had done. I NEVER peed in a pool, and I am 56. This said, I pee in the ocean, under the shower every single time (where is the problem or the taboo ?), and I love nothing more than peeing on the grass -especially under a bright night full of stars ! 🧡✨
My husband and I watch every video as they come out. We also have watched every video you have made since starting your vlog. We feel we are close friends because you are exactly the kind of people we would have hung with in our earlier years. We always had the travel bug. When we retired we sold everything and started full time rv’ing. We are now in our later years and no longer are able to travel so we live vicariously through you and your vlogs. We love every one of your videos.
Honestly I would more debriefs and sit downs going over y’all’s feelings about your latest big adventure after its completion and like if you have guests hearing their thoughts and feelings during them would be great too!
Nate, that was awesome to hear. you say about looking in the mirror a half a second longer! You did change, and you did push out that comfort zone, and you did so in a big way! I have admiration for both of you❤ These bloopers were the best😂
I don’t know what it is about this video but I loved the more casual laid back vlogging style. You’re so delightfully human in a world where so many only show one side of themselves but I love hearing/seeing things that I think wouldn’t have made the final edit a few years ago
I have so much respect for you and Nate creating these platforms and softwares and tools that bring real value to your audience. Obviously you’re making money from them, and I hope you’re making a lot, and no shade to anyone who starts a Patreon, but I have always so respected how you guys have never done a Patreon for money but instead chose to start these incredible businesses and make your money that way. And last thing….how they’re not just cash grabs. They are truly useful tools and platforms. You can tell that Nate in particular is actually super excited and passionate about the things you create and not just concerned about the making money aspect of it. Great work. Keep it up. Super proud of you guys. (even though that feels weird saying lol)
Wow.. y'all are really killing it on the last few videos!!! I know it takes a little time in between but the quality is through the roof!!! Thank y'all for all of your inspiration and vibes!!! See y'all in the next one!!
It's a coati (The animal that jumped out of the trash can). They're so cute. I'm going to get on this miles and points game, y'all explain it so well I just have to really dig into it.
I cried through the entire video! Big fat proud of some internet strangers style crocodile tears. My 17 year old went and got her 21 year old sister, and together, they came and sat with me to ask what I was upset over. I didn't realize I would be so emotional over a video of people that I don't even know, but I feel like I know after 5 or 6 years of watching.
@@Callie83 lol I feel like I know them though. Glad to see another stranger loving other strangers as much as I do. I've been watching for about 3 years or so.
The animal you saw was a Coati, also called Coatimundis. They use their long nose to dig around for grubs and invertebrates. Their diet also consists of fruit, but when very hungry will also eat bird eggs and even birds, frogs, lizards, and small mammals. Early Kara/Nate videos. Hitting the gyms, running, and yoga. This video, "Heard there's a gym around here, haven't seen it, won't see it!". LOL! (of course the 100 mile race was just done, but still funny to hear Kara say it!😂)
I loved the details on how you did this trip! My husband and i are wanting to start churning travel cards. We’re super broke but really want to see more of the world. I love that youre making resources accessible for everyday people.
Nate, I feel you about feeling different, looking at yourself in the mirror and saying "you did it. I did it" I felt the same after delivering my first baby at 40 years old. She was perfect. I did my best. And she's an amazing 14mo old now. Well done, you. Keep reminding yourself that you can do hard things and it's always worth it. 💪🏼
I live in Vegas and a few years ago we decided to do a Staycation at one of the nicer hotels on the strip to enjoy their pools. My son was swimming under the water with goggles on and he popped up saying “mom, look under the water. There’s something floating “ so I did and there was about five chunks of feces floating! We immediately got out of the water and I informed the lifeguard who asked me to show him where it was. The pool was cleared in order to shock it. The lifeguard told me that it happens all the time. Older folks eat at the All you can eat buffet and get constipated, then they get in a warm pool and poop their pants. We have not been back to a public pool since
The mid 30's relaxing vacation is what my husband and I live for. 20's was for hangovers and blisters from dancing all night. 30s is for relaxing and enjoying food. 😊
As much as I love Kara and Nate and enjoy following their journeys, I wonder sometimes if they forget how long it takes normal people to earn points and miles. I used Capital One points to get my wife and I to Hawaii last year and those miles took me like a decade to earn. 😅
Right! Some cards are only worth 1/2 cent per point. So $1000 spent gets you $5 in awards. $100,000 spent is $500. And just as in this video, a room can easily be $800/nt, not including fees and taxes. So spend close to $200,000 to get 1 "free" night at a hotel, not counting taxes and fees. That 5 night stay would require about a $1 Million spend. I don't get it.
Nate and Kara have turned into rich people who complain about things they think we would think less of them for use. Just use the preferred side already!
Thanks so much for posting about doing "not so great" redemptions. You can get so wrapped up in the redemption value, sometimes we forget it's about having fun and traveling!
I have found that Mexican hospitality in the "regular" accommodations in hotels is superb. Something about the hospitality professionals in Mexico is elite. They just do it better than most. Great video, Nate and Kara.
Nashville native!! Also from Hendersonville :) my boyfriend & I have been watching you guys for years!! We get so excited when a new video pops up, hoping to run into y’all one day! Love you guys❤
Every time I enjoy the variety and diversity of your videos. From a hard physical challenge to a full on luxury vacation; I’m here for it! 😃 Proud follower since the beginning of 2020 (ok with a gap in 2021 but now cathing up on those videos). Wish I was here since the beginning because you guys are my favorite TH-camrs along with Craig and Aimee of Kinging-it. 💛💜
Will need more Tipsy Tours! Love the relaxed videos when you guys are truly chilling out ❤
Noted 😎🥂
@@KaraandNate more tipsy and more tiffs!
Yeah no more normal tours for me!😆
hahaha agreed!!

Awesome video as always Kara and Nate. Y’all are the miles and points masters y’all are an Infinite pool of knowledge about miles and points. Thanks for letting us ride along with y’all on y’all’s adventures.
Loved the Leadville video so much I’m going to watch it for a 3rd time after this video ❤❤❤
Just the teamwork between y’all warms my heart. The world needs more of ALL YALL who were on Nate’s team. Y’all had the BEST team I could see, by far!
I know Nate will pick an awesome place to take Kara for vacation. Kara, just sit back & ENJOY!!!! 👊🏼🤗🤗
You’re amazing 🥹🫶🏼
Nate's morning routine scene--hysterical! Love the humor.
God i don’t know how you guys are able to go back to normal life after doing accomplishments this hard. This is exactly why people watch you, keep up the good work❤❤🎉🎉🎉
How much do we love Kara and Nate? So much that even as avid college football fans, we turned to this video during all the primetime games. My wife and I wiped away so many joyful tears over your past two videos, and were so thrilled to watch this reward vacation for y’all.
Thank you for all the work you do putting into these videos. They’re filled with so much joy and are very encouraging.
So Proud of you and Rick. Nate how hard you work towards your goals is evident as is your love for Kara.
GO TEAM GO
Hope Nate and Kara enjoyed their time in Mexico! Also, LOVE that Airolo is one of your sponsors, they also sponsor a spamming channel I follow where a group of guys spam spammers, so you know it’s safe!
So happy Nate got some well deserved R&R! The Leadville 100 video was so awesome! By the way, I'm a journalist for a small paper in Titusville, Pa., and they are getting ready to hold their annual Oil Creek 100 in a few weeks. I was interviewing the race director for an article, and she was mentioning things like aid stations, crew, and pacers. I kept nodding my head each time, thinking about Nate and the whole gang!!! If Nate could do the Leadville 100 at high elevation, he would crush the Oil Creek 100!
Watching you run 100 miles gave me the motivation to take the leap and sign up for my first marathon the day before my 37th bday in March 2025. I run regularly but have always let the fear of not finishing stop me. Not this time!! ❤❤
You got this! I'm doing my first half marathon next year, for the same reason (these two have inspired me to make the leap!) All the best to you.
Rooting for you❤ Best wishes!!
Come back and update us!!! YOU GOT THIS!!!!!!
literally stopped everything i was doing and clicked so fast. i love you guys so much
You rock 😁🤙🏼
@@KaraandNate yo Nate, did Rusty run that 100 with ya? 👍👍
- MDK ✌️
I still can’t get over the 100 mile video I think the video was a milestone in itself for your channel it was absolutely amazing. Not saying your other videos aren’t but it just felt so special made me feel like I was there with yall.
Nate’s morning routine 😂 I have never felt so seen
You guys should make a video of you cleaning your van those videos are always fun to watch.
Nice tour of the hotel. I am really impressed how rested and healthy Kara looks. What ever she is doing to take care your health keep doing it. 😁😁
I smiled a lot watching this video, just so ya know. And I absolutely adore how Kara is so in love with food. Love it.
how do i say this... I've had to pause the video, ... basically I want to tell y'all how much I appreciate your candid life, I'm mean you're on vacation and you still invited me along aaand taught me something about how you did it all for free/miles. Any way I'm proud of both of y'all's achievements and thanks again for taking me along on all of them. Lord bless ya!
i love love love y'all's honestly and bluntness in this video! it's been showing more and more lately and it makes it easier to connect to yall. big fan for years, by far my favorite couple on youtube! Glad you guys enjoyed yourselves!
I loved the little "On Vacation" title page, that just made me so happy for Kara!
Seems like you are more relaxed than normal! Loved the tipsy tour! No upgrades!
Love the tipsy tours! And I just turned 70 so y’all are definitely NOT old!
Love that the whole family was involved!! Love Pop’s bathroom clip! You guys are amazing!!! Way to go Nate!!
Pro tip:
Mexican domestics flights are typically 1/10 the price of international flights from a nearby region/ same mileage. What that means is that a flight to the same destination, from San Diego vs Tijuana, can differ by thousands of dollars. In the future, look at travel variations that use San Diego as a pivot point for MX travel. You can ride the train/ trolley from as far as LA, walk over the border, then fly out of Tijuana. It will save you thousands!
I just strive to have as many great memories in my life as you guys are creating... I love how close the both of yall are together! Always waiting for the next one!
The Leadville 100 race video was awesome! So stoked to see the recovery on the other side. The story on insta was a blast! Even the pool vs ocean survey questions......
Honestly, i never knew i needed this chaos from y'all. Great video!!
Let me start by saying we love you guys been watching from the start,My husband and I don't fly we do our vacations by car but dont go out of the country.Our next adventure is going to Maine, New Hampshire,Vermont were from CT in our 60,s for our 25th anniversary you guys have given me so much inspiration to push on keep going so let the adventure begin, Enjoy your vacation you two deserve it.
And NML loves you Kara!! Thanks for sweating (like really sweating) with us in Mexico, but next time can we come with you!! Looks like an awesome and well deserved getaway for you two!
The Leadville 100 video was great and now watching you guys is fun, funny, and it makes me happy watching you guys having a great vacation. Also you guys are the best and the funniest TH-camrs ever. And I love your videos too. ❤
Love yall. I could hear the pain in Nate’s voice using points to pay for taxes and fees. That was a lot of points too. Nice vacation thanks for sharing
That’s a well deserved vacation for Nate after that’s crazy endurance run! Also, Kara deserves this break just as much for tirelessly running everything flawlessly in the background, despite quietly enduring her health issues! Love you guys! ❤
Pour myself a glass of wine, lit my fireplace and enjoyed your post. Thank you.
I've been watching Kara and Nate since 2018!!!! Keep up the good work
AHHHHH KARA AND NATE!! YOU TWO have a lottt coming your way I'm so happy for you two !! You guys sre soulmates forsure
When I was a child, I was told that if I peed in a pool there would be a colored mark all around me, and everyone would knew what I had done. I NEVER peed in a pool, and I am 56. This said, I pee in the ocean, under the shower every single time (where is the problem or the taboo ?), and I love nothing more than peeing on the grass -especially under a bright night full of stars ! 🧡✨
Tipsy tours w/K& N I'll be your #1 fan😜🍹 That's my kind of traveling 🎉🎉🎉
I love when you two travel. I do hope you will be planning more travel adventures! Congratulations to Nate for the Leadville 100! Well done!!
Finally!! Was waiting for the upload !!!! yay!!! you both deserve this break!!
Aww yay enjoy!❤️
@@KaraandNate I really enjoyed Nate's morning routine at the airport!! extra care haha!
What a truly awesome video! So much fun! Thank you for taking us with you on your vacation.
I love how Nate is always so happy
I just have to say, EVERY time I see a new Kara & Nate video, I stop what I’m doing and watch. Yall are just the best.
My husband and I watch every video as they come out. We also have watched every video you have made since starting your vlog. We feel we are close friends because you are exactly the kind of people we would have hung with in our earlier years. We always had the travel bug. When we retired we sold everything and started full time rv’ing. We are now in our later years and no longer are able to travel so we live vicariously through you and your vlogs. We love every one of your videos.
Honestly I would more debriefs and sit downs going over y’all’s feelings about your latest big adventure after its completion and like if you have guests hearing their thoughts and feelings during them would be great too!
There's a lot that's rough about van life, but just sleeping in your house in the airport lot is a dream.
Nate, that was awesome to hear. you say about looking in the mirror a half a second longer! You did change, and you did push out that comfort zone, and you did so in a big way! I have admiration for both of you❤ These bloopers were the best😂
I don’t know what it is about this video but I loved the more casual laid back vlogging style. You’re so delightfully human in a world where so many only show one side of themselves but I love hearing/seeing things that I think wouldn’t have made the final edit a few years ago
I have so much respect for you and Nate creating these platforms and softwares and tools that bring real value to your audience.
Obviously you’re making money from them, and I hope you’re making a lot, and no shade to anyone who starts a Patreon, but I have always so respected how you guys have never done a Patreon for money but instead chose to start these incredible businesses and make your money that way.
And last thing….how they’re not just cash grabs. They are truly useful tools and platforms. You can tell that Nate in particular is actually super excited and passionate about the things you create and not just concerned about the making money aspect of it.
Great work. Keep it up. Super proud of you guys. (even though that feels weird saying lol)
Wow.. y'all are really killing it on the last few videos!!! I know it takes a little time in between but the quality is through the roof!!! Thank y'all for all of your inspiration and vibes!!! See y'all in the next one!!
It's a coati (The animal that jumped out of the trash can). They're so cute. I'm going to get on this miles and points game, y'all explain it so well I just have to really dig into it.
I love how the Daily Drop explain everything in great detail. Thanks guys!
I cried when Nate finished the 100 miles...love you both so much!
I cried through the entire video! Big fat proud of some internet strangers style crocodile tears. My 17 year old went and got her 21 year old sister, and together, they came and sat with me to ask what I was upset over. I didn't realize I would be so emotional over a video of people that I don't even know, but I feel like I know after 5 or 6 years of watching.
@@Callie83 lol
I feel like I know them though. Glad to see another stranger loving other strangers as much as I do. I've been watching for about 3 years or so.
Same here, I've watched that video 3 times already!😢😂
YES PLEASE MAKE TIPSY TOURS A REGULAR THING
I’m stealing the title for my next trip to Cuba lol
Hi Kara and Nate. Love the animals, the pool thing😮 I guess that's why the pools have so much colorine.
Glad you had a great trip.
The animal you saw was a Coati, also called Coatimundis. They use their long nose to dig around for grubs and invertebrates. Their diet also consists of fruit, but when very hungry will also eat bird eggs and even birds, frogs, lizards, and small mammals.
Early Kara/Nate videos. Hitting the gyms, running, and yoga.
This video, "Heard there's a gym around here, haven't seen it, won't see it!". LOL! (of course the 100 mile race was just done, but still funny to hear Kara say it!😂)
I loved the details on how you did this trip! My husband and i are wanting to start churning travel cards. We’re super broke but really want to see more of the world. I love that youre making resources accessible for everyday people.
Nate, I feel you about feeling different, looking at yourself in the mirror and saying "you did it. I did it" I felt the same after delivering my first baby at 40 years old. She was perfect. I did my best. And she's an amazing 14mo old now.
Well done, you. Keep reminding yourself that you can do hard things and it's always worth it. 💪🏼
I had my first baby at 21 and still felt this. Push your body to the edge and you can’t help but see the strength when you come out on the other side.
Nate explaining miles and points is bringing me back and I love it!!!
Me, who has been waiting for almost an hour since the insta story 🙃
Sorry🥶🫶🏼😅
@@KaraandNate it was all worth it as usual 💙❤️
I love the diversity that nourishmovelove offers and it’s so fun to do! Keep pushing your selfs to do the hard things!
I live in Vegas and a few years ago we decided to do a Staycation at one of the nicer hotels on the strip to enjoy their pools. My son was swimming under the water with goggles on and he popped up saying “mom, look under the water. There’s something floating “ so I did and there was about five chunks of feces floating! We immediately got out of the water and I informed the lifeguard who asked me to show him where it was. The pool was cleared in order to shock it. The lifeguard told me that it happens all the time. Older folks eat at the All you can eat buffet and get constipated, then they get in a warm pool and poop their pants. We have not been back to a public pool since
Ewwww
The mid 30's relaxing vacation is what my husband and I live for. 20's was for hangovers and blisters from dancing all night. 30s is for relaxing and enjoying food. 😊
I love that you take a week off for YOU guys, but boy are Saturdays better with ya ❤😊
🥹🫶🏼
Saturdays are better when Kara and Nate drop a video! ❤
Oat milk latte on draft!!! Nice.
RIGHT☕️🙌🏼
I absolutely LOVE your videos! I’ve been watching for years. Thank yall for being so wonderful and genuine! ❤
As much as I love Kara and Nate and enjoy following their journeys, I wonder sometimes if they forget how long it takes normal people to earn points and miles. I used Capital One points to get my wife and I to Hawaii last year and those miles took me like a decade to earn. 😅
Right! Some cards are only worth 1/2 cent per point. So $1000 spent gets you $5 in awards. $100,000 spent is $500. And just as in this video, a room can easily be $800/nt, not including fees and taxes. So spend close to $200,000 to get 1 "free" night at a hotel, not counting taxes and fees. That 5 night stay would require about a $1 Million spend. I don't get it.
its a Coati!! so cute! I live to watch your videos and i love the longer ones the best!!! Its a Kara and Nate movie!!
Nate and Kara have turned into rich people who complain about things they think we would think less of them for use. Just use the preferred side already!
Thanks so much for posting about doing "not so great" redemptions. You can get so wrapped up in the redemption value, sometimes we forget it's about having fun and traveling!
I’m First. love you all have a good day
🥇🫶🏼
I have found that Mexican hospitality in the "regular" accommodations in hotels is superb. Something about the hospitality professionals in Mexico is elite. They just do it better than most. Great video, Nate and Kara.
Half of the video is a damn ad.
Womp womp
i was about to tweak out
Nashville native!! Also from Hendersonville :) my boyfriend & I have been watching you guys for years!! We get so excited when a new video pops up, hoping to run into y’all one day! Love you guys❤
Every time I enjoy the variety and diversity of your videos. From a hard physical challenge to a full on luxury vacation; I’m here for it! 😃 Proud follower since the beginning of 2020 (ok with a gap in 2021 but now cathing up on those videos). Wish I was here since the beginning because you guys are my favorite TH-camrs along with Craig and Aimee of Kinging-it. 💛💜
The way Kara and Nate look at each other is literally a life goal❤❤
