So excited to see this just 8 minutes after you posted it!!!! I loved seeing your insta stories about this tribe and the long video is an amazing opportunity!
OMG you took me back, I was in Malaysia over 25 years ago, the dugout canoe on the river, same experience ... so awesome. I went barefoot though..lol you win, I didn't eat the grub... I love this video so much.
You truly have brought a National Geographic magazine alive. The amount of cultural respect and enrichment you brought to this episode has truly been magical.
Mama’s laugh is so comforting and just seeing how happy kara was with her is so heart warming because they “barely” know each other and they just connected instantly it’s awesome and amazing too see💓💓
This is why Kara and Nate make such amazing videos, one week they can be eating caviar on a plane and the next eating live grubs in the jungle. The best part is they are up for any and all challenges and are so happy and interested in learning and teaching us about other cultures. Thank you!🙏❤️
I LOVE just how versatile Kara and Nate are!! Literally going from first class seats on an airplane to sleeping on hardwood floors in the most remote places😍
Appreciate this quality about them as well. After all, it’s ALL on offer in Life on this planet - to experience various types of abundance - that of first class seats on an airplane to that of a private, curated space in this families home in the jungle of Indonesia. That they do it so well and take us along is fantastic. 💕🙏🏼
Living out here in the Mentawai Islands, we know the struggles indigenous Mentawai people go through to keep their traditional way of living. Many young people here have forgotten why their ancestral knowledge is important and worth preserving. But your video perfectly showed the value of traditional life and hopefully it helps the locals (and especially the younger generation) to see that too! What a beautiful and inspiring video you guys made!
So well put. In a world that has been overtaken, with technology, old world traditions and skills like they learned with the tribe provide these resources that we need for humanity to keep thriving.
I love to see your perspective! I live so far from this life that I worry that tourists could ruin things. I trust Kara and Nate more than anyone else to be grateful and respectful but you just never know… until someone close to the community comments. I’m glad! Thanks for sharing.
In an era where polarization is at an insane level, you manage to display human connection across cultures. Respectfully and beautifully filmed. Grateful that you make this content and grateful the Mentawai were so generous to invite you into their home and lives for a few days.
I LOVE SALOMO!! This is probably one of my favorite videos you guys have ever posted. The kindness and hospitality shown from these people is incredible. I really love this and love you guys!❤
You’ve posted some amazing videos over the years, but this has to be by far, one of the most heart warming and wholesome videos you’ve posted (with your Lake Titicaca coming in a strong second) ❤
One of the things that I always see in the videos is that Nate ALWAYS, it doesn't matter where they are, always tries to make coffee for Kara, I think during their stay in an island surviving in the middle of the ocean he still tried to make coffee. I aspire to be as Nate one day.
It’s awesome watching Kara continue to grow as a person as she tackles these new challenges and experiences head on confidently. From the night scuba diving in Thailand, to the Alcatraz swim in SF, to the Monkey Run in Peru, and now living with a remote tribe. Absolutely adore and proud of this girl! ❤️
The way Kara and Nate were able to almost step back into time and give an insight into how tribes lived 2,000 years ago and still today is amazing! They're a couple who live in the 21st century who are extremely tech-savvy, yet they were able to create a refreshing, eye-opening yet educational vlog! I'm always excited when Kara and Nate post a video as I have been watching since 2018 and their videos are so different from any other travel youtubers I watch. Well done and keep up the good work! Can't wait to see where you guys go next!
This was stunning! It felt like a modern, heartfelt nat geo video. Thank you both for taking us on the adventure, and being two lovely people wanting to connect with other people! It warms my heart to see that no matter how different we look or where we are from, humanity connects us, as long as you are open ❤ Also so much respect for trying the grub worms!
You both show the world through such a beautiful and raw lens. Being from Maluku heritage (another island group) watching this made me tear up. You are showing their culture and with that someones heritage. Keep doing what you do ❤
Love it, I'm from Aotearoa (New Zealand) and our Tupuna (Ancestors) lived like this but we live our lives as a western society generation but the hard labour and living off the land makes me appreciate what they did for us to live a easy life. We still instill our traditional lifestyle but as a western society. This is amazing. We call them huhu grubs in Aotearoa and they taste like peanut butter
When I first opened this video, I was doubtful that the tribe can speak Indonesian, let alone English, but in fact, they are fluent in both! You have opened me to a part of my country that I have never thought about and they seem incredibly friendly!
I've always been fascinated by how small our world actually is, yet people manage to stay as remote as the Mentawai Tribe. I can't wait to watch this. Have a great Saturday everyone 🌍🤜🤛
When you were explaining at the start what this journey was about, I honestly thought you might have gone a little too far in search of adventure. But the Mentawai people were so incredibly warm and welcoming!! What an amazing adventure this was. Thank you both SO MUCH for being who you are, and for taking us with you!! This was top notch content.
this was amazing. talk about a couple of kids from TN getting out of their comfort zone. I love how respectful and thoughtful both of you are in all of your travels. you certainly represent America in the best light possible
I truly feel so blessed to follow this amazing couple. I love seeing the world through your content especially when you put so much effort into understanding and respecting traditions and cultures. AMAZING!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤
I am so amazed by them as well… travel vicariously truly broadens the mind. At the end of the day, people are people, doing what they gotta do to live life!
After your Mentawai Tribe video got 3M views, it's not surprising you inspired big TH-camrs like K&N to try this too! I'm still amazed that you did this whole experience with a 3-year-old and a 5-year-old! Your kids are true adventurers. 🙌
I have never, ever been a nature, outdoorsy, adventurous girl but even I was glued to Nate and Kara's adventure the entire time. It is amazing how they managed to bring the native folk to us with such respect and sincerity.
The best 46 minutes ❤❤❤ what an amazing time. You can feel the love and how welcoming they are, and sharing their lives with you. Thank you for bringing this amazing lives to us. Love how nate embraces his outfits. No bad and looking handsome. Kara bond with “mama” was so touching. But I have to say, nate giving the bathroom tour instead of Kara - priceless ❤❤
Can we please give a round of Applause for Sonoma and Mamma👏👏👏👏👏♥️ They are incredible and so hardworking!! What a great video to teach us All how thankful we should be and what we do easily have at our disposal.... This Tribe works hard and look how joyful they are! And Kara, I love your infectious personality, Joy, Happiness and Love of life. You always make the best out of every situation and are very genuine ❤ Nate, Nice job in learning from Sonomo and being a great sport about it. I can't believe that Sonomo is 70years old ! He is amazing 🤩 And my favorite part was your Loin Cloth, made especially for you Nate, and the beads and head dress.... So glad you got to experience this Nate and Kara... Peace and Love to you Both❤
Thank you for visiting my country and for being so positive about our culture and people ❤️❤️💕💕 love your videos, been watching since you guys just started youtube 💕💕 blessings to both of youu
@@HoagieHutif I remember correctly, when they did their North Pole cruise, they gave credit (and a really nice shout out) to their new and current editor, who is no longer Kara 😊
This was the most beautiful video you guys have ever made! It was so moving. I’m so honored to have been able to experience this with you guys, as I know I never could in reality. I’m truly moved to tears. Wow. Will be thinking about Salomo and his family for the rest of my years♥️
This video made me so incredibly happy, watching how this tribe lives everyday with so much joy while working so so hard. On top of that a 46 MINUTE VIDEO of Kara and Nate getting to experience that. Such a wonderful, authentic, sweet sweet video!! So inspiring. Great work team!! Love you both so dearly your videos make my week!
i LOVE how y’all show the world how different cultures and traditions can add so much to peoples lives from all around the world and can teach generations how to be culturally accepting and learn from people who are different from yourself. love y’all and appreciate all you do for us ♥️♥️
Nate and Kara, thank you for coming to my country Indonesia and my hometown Sumatera. I was wondering when you will come back and have an adventure in one of our hundred thousand tribes here in Indonesia. So glad you visited Mentawai, beautiful tribe with beautiful people and off course the green wilds and delicious Sumateran coffee, you have my respect for making this video nice, informative yet entertaining. I watch your videos as my dream to visit the places have been fulfilled by you guys. Your journeys accompanied me through out the pandemic era and I'm so glad I bumped into your content and never stop ever since. By the way, Nate looked handsome in that Mentawai traditional costume, and Kara with her smile always makes my day. Can't wait for the next trip, 😊
I literally teared up when Salomo dressed Nate in the traditional clothing (after cracking up at Nate’s reaction to the loin cloth, of course 😂) What a special experience, and thank you for sharing it!
Gosh, having watched every video and knowing where you started to this is just so wonderful. From kids just trying to make it a year, to basically documentary filmmakers. It is just wonderful. So excited to see where the next years take you and how you evolve.
Kara and Nate, I found you during COVID, when I was panicked that I would never see the world outside of my home in California, and your adventures literally got me through and helped me to not give up on my travel dreams. This video really touched me and reminded me how little we really need to be happy. What a beautiful experience you’ve had and I feel so lucky that you’ve shared it with us. And, by the way, we begin our travels in August to the UK and Spain!
How you ever made these connections to visit the tribe is in itself amazing BUT Where in the very wildest dreams did you ever think your honeymoon would bring you here OMG I’m loving how you have become a new flow as a couple. Sweet, accepting, daring, members of our beautiful blue planet 🌎
What an incredibly resilient and strong people! Thank you for sharing their culture with us. I can’t imagine what a unique and profound experience this must have been!
I love how yall are so respectful, ask questions and make us feel as if we are there with yall!!! ❤ And im afraid I would have barfed on those worms yall ate 🤢
I am pretty new to Kara and Nate’s channel, but honestly I am hooked. What really draws me in is the authentic content that bring’s us all along for the adventures that you guys have. I have travelled extensively and still I learn and am excited for each new post. This weeks clip really reminds me how easy my life is ( even the days that are hard are still easy ) and that simple acts and interactions are powerful. Thank you deeply Kara and Nate for creating the content that we all get to enjoy…. Happy Sat ❤
This is incredible. Your channel teaches so many people about the great big world in the best ways. Celebrating all different cultures. Your vids are so positive and fun!! Faint wait to watch!💗❤💗 Happy Saturday everyone!
Kara and Nate, you make videos that are as polished as any on Nat'l Geo or Travel Channel--and you do it yourselves, without a crew. You are communicators, you are videographers, and you are artists.
You two are simply incredible!! I enjoy watching your videos more than you can imagine. They are not only crazily adventurous, the are taking this very senior Italian woman transplanted in Washington, DC on wonderful, unusual trips around the world, disclosing unexpected experiences. I love it!! Thank you.
Y'all have made some dynamic videos and had outrageous experiences but your humility when you venture into these type of "adventures" is absolutely beautiful. I wanted to cry as they welcomed you and you joyfully embrace their culture. This is why you are so successful. Reminds me of living with the monks. So beautiful 💕
My three year old asks to watch "Carrot" (your gifted couple name 😂) and I love being able to share more of the world with her through your videos than we'll ever be able to do in person. ❤
@@KaraandNate She was born in India so especially likes those vlogs of yours!! I think my favorite is still your Everest Base Camp trek. It's been awesome to watch you both over the years!
What an amazing chapter to your life. At the end when Kara was narrating i was filled with emotion. Even without the material things a family can survive and be happy. They were happy to share what little they have. Kara and Nate you did amazing in being appreciative and being respectful. You both are amazing people. Nate you rocked in the tribe apparel! Great video.
I have literally just finished binge watching all your videos from the beginning, it's taken months. Now completely up to date and can't wait for more.
You guys created a TH-cam channel that is as authentic as it is informative. Your down-to-earth personalities, respect for the places and people they encounter, and dedication to providing valuable information make you stand out in the crowded world of travel vlogging. You both are proof that you don’t need to sacrifice authenticity for success, and their continued growth is a testament to the power of being genuine. Watching both of you is not just about seeing new places-it's about learning, connecting, and being inspired by two people who are living their dream with humility and heart.
This is the best video that we’ve ever watched! Your authenticity and realness and being so present with Salomo and Momma was the most enjoyable. Thank you for always going above and beyond and making mini movies!❤
I really appreciate how Kara & Nate try their best to immerse themselves in the local culture and way of live👏🏼and I specifically love Kara’s room tour in the Long House and the non-staged AG1 ad ❤
I'm fascinated by they're way of life, it's just like Nate described, they just do and live. No stress, no need to be online, no being bored, just living and enjoying what's around. This was such a beautiful video, thank you for sharing such a rare experience!
OMG I just watch this and shock as an Indonesian living in New York. And embracing the fact a place like this is one bit of Sumatra. Where my old great great great parents originally from ( north Sumatera in Lake Toba) when I see this there is a tears in my eyes, oh wow Nate and Kara I never been to this place and never thinking this place is even exist. Anyway thanks for the video this is really special and touch my deepest heart … hope one day we could meet each other in Long Island, New York, hopefully!
Watching a video one day of your first class experiences, then trekking through the jungle with smiles on your faces reminds me of that verse, “I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.”
This episode was so sweet. Very humbled people living simple life. What else do you really need....they have each other and big hearts, just like Kara and Nate.
One of the best K and N videos EVER! I started watching you in early 2020. You two did such an amazing job with this, so humble and full of respect. Thank you for taking us there, absolutely heartwarming and wonderful!❤❤
How am I just now finding y’all’s channel. You both are so inspiring and beautiful spirits. Your passion for life and people is clear. May you be blessed in all of your adventures.
This was such a cool video. These people seem so happy and content. I’m so glad they were not forced to change like so many other indigenous people around the world. Thanks for sharing your incredible experience with the rest of us.
This was truly beautiful. I love how you really allowed yourselves to integrate into the family and culture. I agree that incorporating play into chores and taking your time with it adds a lot of beauty and happiness into daily living!
I am always a bit critical when western people go to visit indigenous people for entertainment purposes. But I have to say that you filmed it in a very restrained, accessible and considerate way and brought it closer to us. I hope they get some of your TH-cam earnings.
It's so nice watching you guys go places where others wouldn't want to go and experience all these diverse cultures. Thank you very much. Also, in my country (Ghana), people do eat the grub but its fried. So much love from Ghana.
That was really something! How you guys just fit in no matter where you go...eating worms, wearing tree bark for pants, etc...and sweating constantly in that environment...something not everyone would be willing to do. Very special indeed! Thank you for sharing it with us!
This video is critically underrated. Why such low views?! I LOVED this video. Please don’t feel discouraged over the views this was genuinely such a good video Kara and Nate!
Wow!!! I can only imagine how you felt… because I didn’t want you to leave. I felt so bonded to them. I now care about them. I care about protecting them and learning from them m. What beautiful beautiful beautiful wonderful people! ❤ There is one thing besides silence that is universal… love actually takes action to show. Love in action is the gift that we give each other. When love is the root of all you do joy is the product of what you make. Thank you so much for introducing us to them, thank you so much for being willing to take such a wild journey that makes me stretched, in the most wonderful of ways.
I was trying to imagine how this place smells and whether the rain was warm. I love how they just get on with it and try everything. What an adventure.
I’ll say it again…..It’s not a great Saturday without watching a Kara and Nate video to get the day started!! Great job in always finding wonderful content!!
This is by far my favorite video from Kara and Nate. With the negative things we see and read on the news, being able to watch the simple life style that this small group of jungle tribe is living with full of appreciation for nature and earth is heartwarming. Thank you for what you do guys. ❤
I just love the real reaction and hospitality you guys received from the tribe people, and showing them your drone. Such a nostalgic feeling showing us that there are so much happiness away from the digital world. Well Done Kara and Nate. Thank you
Who would've thought all those years ago, that these kids I followed on their first trips around the world would become such epic adventure-film-makers! Absolutely awesome video, it was such a thoughtful, measured depiction of the Mentawai family you stayed with 10/10
Why am I crying 🥹 Meeting Salomo and rest of family their energy is so beautiful 🥰 this is such a testament to how living remotely can really preserve such a beautiful way of life and protect your energy from some of the toxic things that go on in societies.
With yesterday having been so rough, the positivity from a Kara and Nate video is what I need right now. Thank goodness for you guys! ❤️❤️❤️ I’m gonna go make coffee for myself and then sit down to watch. ❤️❤️❤️
Wow I’m speechless. This was so amazing to watch. I learned about a culture I didn’t know about. I loved to see how they live and how generous and loving they are. Obviously your story telling always on point guys! Reminded me a little of your time in Bhutan. Thanks for sharing ❤️
It takes true bravery and an insatiable curiosity to immerse yourselves in a completely different way of life, far away from the comforts we often take for granted. Your dedication to understanding and respecting diverse cultures is truly inspiring! 👏. Kara and Nate your smiles radiate positivity throughout the entire video! Your infectious joy and genuine enthusiasm are truly uplifting. remind us to find joy in the simplest of moments. 😄✨ Thank you for sharing your adventures with us. Wishing you both many more adventures filled with smiles and an abundance of positivity. Keep spreading the joy!
I’m 9:24 min in and it’s already my FAVORITE video of theirs. I’ve been following since the Everest base camp journey. All their content recently is on another level 👍🏻 but they just continue to showcase how genuinely beautiful people they are and that there still is in this world. Thank you so much for this gorgeous video.
I really love your videos but this one is so awesome, what an honor they bestowed apon Nate making his outfit. Such a Beautiful tribe, I hope you make more like this ❤ watching Solomo calling the drone magic made me smile and tear up
It took exactly the length of this video to run my second treadmill 5k. I run the first watching you do your Marathon with Russ. Thanks for the vibes guys!
I love how you developed such a great bond with the tribe having only been there for a few days! It’s also so amazing how strong Salomo is! I love this video ❤
This was absolutely fascinating to me, because that's where my Dad's side of the family is from and I've never set foot on the island. I so want to one day, thank you for bringing this into my living room and for being so real about the experiences. You're always so open minded, it's a joy to watch 💕
This tops just about anything you have ever done. And that's saying a heck of a lot. Once again God bless you and thank you for bringing all of us along on your adventure 😊❤
Definitely one of my favorite videos of Kara and Nate. I felt like I was there with you. What beautiful people the Mentowai are. It’s a gift to be simple. Thank you for sharing this with us!
This has to be my favorite of all time Kara and Nate video. The happiness, peace, love and positive energy around this tribe is palpable. How they work together and how they live off the land is absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing this amazing experience with us.
We haven't been this excited to publish a new video in a long time! We hope you enjoy it as much as we do :)
I just clicked on this video. But I already know the video is gonna be great!
I'm excited for you! I know I'll enjoy the whole forty-six minutes! 👏🏽😊

You truly have brought a National Geographic magazine alive. The amount of cultural respect and enrichment you brought to this episode has truly been magical.
So true! I think what sets you apart is the way you interact with everyone you meet. That's why you walk away from every adventure with more friends.
I would like but I don't want to ruin the 666 lol 😂😂
Do they work for National Geographic?
46 minutes of kara and nate feels like a christmas present
Better than NatGeo!
frrr
wayyy to short 🙂

I Love momma, her smiles just warmed my heart. Thank you for always stepping out of your comfort zone and showing the world around us.
Momma was something else wasn’t she 🥹
@KaraandNate Yes, and you are one in the same. You genuinely give those smiles right back. You don't need the language to communicate.
@@erickajohnson2385Nicely said!
I hope you go to Bali next

Isn’t it amazing how happy and generous the poorest people are? We are so spoiled! Great video as always!
I feel like their definition of poor is WAY different from ours but I do agree we are spoiled as hell. This video was awesome!
They’re not poor, they like how they live. The poorest are poor in spirit, not in wealth.
Mama is Kara’s soulmate of the jungle. The way they both speak in a music harmony way is super cute!
Nate and Kara, thank you for coming to my country Indonesia and my hometown Sumatera. I was wondering when you will come back and have an adventure in one of our hundred thousand tribes here in Indonesia. So glad you visited Mentawai, beautiful tribe with beautiful people and off course the green wilds and delicious Sumateran coffee, you have my respect for making this video nice, informative yet entertaining. I watch your videos as my dream to visit the places have been fulfilled by you guys. Your journeys accompanied me through out the pandemic era and I'm so glad I bumped into your content and never stop ever since. By the way, Nate looked handsome in that Mentawai traditional costume, and Kara with her smile always makes my day. Can't wait for the next trip, 😊
I'm also looking forward for their visit to the Papua tribes
I literally teared up when Salomo dressed Nate in the traditional clothing (after cracking up at Nate’s reaction to the loin cloth, of course 😂) What a special experience, and thank you for sharing it!
Gosh, having watched every video and knowing where you started to this is just so wonderful. From kids just trying to make it a year, to basically documentary filmmakers. It is just wonderful. So excited to see where the next years take you and how you evolve.
Kara and Nate, I found you during COVID, when I was panicked that I would never see the world outside of my home in California, and your adventures literally got me through and helped me to not give up on my travel dreams. This video really touched me and reminded me how little we really need to be happy. What a beautiful experience you’ve had and I feel so lucky that you’ve shared it with us. And, by the way, we begin our travels in August to the UK and Spain!
Been on a bingefest with Kara and Nate videos and i can confidently say this is absolutely one of my favorite videos from you guys!!
Man the whole family is so wholesome and kind! I wish them the best and a long live
How you ever made these connections to visit the tribe is in itself amazing
BUT
Where in the very wildest dreams did you ever think your honeymoon would bring you here OMG
I’m loving how you have become a new flow as a couple. Sweet, accepting, daring, members of our beautiful blue planet 🌎
What an incredibly resilient and strong people! Thank you for sharing their culture with us. I can’t imagine what a unique and profound experience this must have been!
I love how yall are so respectful, ask questions and make us feel as if we are there with yall!!! ❤
And im afraid I would have barfed on those worms yall ate 🤢
The joy that salomo showed when he saw the drone was so heartwarming to me im glad that kara and natevare using their privliges for good
The filming on this was simply incredible! I felt like I was watching a natgeo film but Kara and Nate made it even more special! I love you guys!!
I am pretty new to Kara and Nate’s channel, but honestly I am hooked. What really draws me in is the authentic content that bring’s us all along for the adventures that you guys have. I have travelled extensively and still I learn and am excited for each new post. This weeks clip really reminds me how easy my life is ( even the days that are hard are still easy ) and that simple acts and interactions are powerful. Thank you deeply Kara and Nate for creating the content that we all get to enjoy…. Happy Sat ❤
This is incredible. Your channel teaches so many people about the great big world in the best ways. Celebrating all different cultures. Your vids are so positive and fun!! Faint wait to watch!💗❤💗
Happy Saturday everyone!
Kara and Nate, you make videos that are as polished as any on Nat'l Geo or Travel Channel--and you do it yourselves, without a crew. You are communicators, you are videographers, and you are artists.
I love how Kara and Nate both respected the tribe while also showing them their way of life !!
You two are simply incredible!! I enjoy watching your videos more than you can imagine. They are not only crazily adventurous, the are taking this very senior Italian woman transplanted in Washington, DC on wonderful, unusual trips around the world, disclosing unexpected experiences. I love it!! Thank you.
Y'all have made some dynamic videos and had outrageous experiences but your humility when you venture into these type of "adventures" is absolutely beautiful. I wanted to cry as they welcomed you and you joyfully embrace their culture. This is why you are so successful. Reminds me of living with the monks. So beautiful 💕
My three year old asks to watch "Carrot" (your gifted couple name 😂) and I love being able to share more of the world with her through your videos than we'll ever be able to do in person. ❤
Carrot is my new favorite nickname!!!! 🥕🥰🫶🏼
@@KaraandNate She was born in India so especially likes those vlogs of yours!! I think my favorite is still your Everest Base Camp trek. It's been awesome to watch you both over the years!
What an amazing chapter to your life. At the end when Kara was narrating i was filled with emotion. Even without the material things a family can survive and be happy. They were happy to share what little they have. Kara and Nate you did amazing in being appreciative and being respectful. You both are amazing people. Nate you rocked in the tribe apparel! Great video.
I have literally just finished binge watching all your videos from the beginning, it's taken months. Now completely up to date and can't wait for more.
You guys created a TH-cam channel that is as authentic as it is informative. Your down-to-earth personalities, respect for the places and people they encounter, and dedication to providing valuable information make you stand out in the crowded world of travel vlogging. You both are proof that you don’t need to sacrifice authenticity for success, and their continued growth is a testament to the power of being genuine. Watching both of you is not just about seeing new places-it's about learning, connecting, and being inspired by two people who are living their dream with humility and heart.
This is the best video that we’ve ever watched! Your authenticity and realness and being so present with Salomo and Momma was the most enjoyable. Thank you for always going above and beyond and making mini movies!❤
Cant wait you both explore wonderful indonesia
I really appreciate how Kara & Nate try their best to immerse themselves in the local culture and way of live👏🏼and I specifically love Kara’s room tour in the Long House and the non-staged AG1 ad ❤
I'm fascinated by they're way of life, it's just like Nate described, they just do and live. No stress, no need to be online, no being bored, just living and enjoying what's around. This was such a beautiful video, thank you for sharing such a rare experience!
Of all the places you have been this is probably my favourite. Getting to know the real people instead of tourist people. I'm envious.
OMG I just watch this and shock as an Indonesian living in New York. And embracing the fact a place like this is one bit of Sumatra. Where my old great great great parents originally from ( north Sumatera in Lake Toba) when I see this there is a tears in my eyes, oh wow Nate and Kara I never been to this place and never thinking this place is even exist. Anyway thanks for the video this is really special and touch my deepest heart … hope one day we could meet each other in Long Island, New York, hopefully!
Watching a video one day of your first class experiences, then trekking through the jungle with smiles on your faces reminds me of that verse, “I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.”
This episode was so sweet. Very humbled people living simple life. What else do you really need....they have each other and big hearts, just like Kara and Nate.
This is like an episode from Discovery TV. Kara & Nate, you guys are a LEGEND!
One of the best K and N videos EVER! I started watching you in early 2020. You two did such an amazing job with this, so humble and full of respect. Thank you for taking us there, absolutely heartwarming and wonderful!❤❤
How am I just now finding y’all’s channel. You both are so inspiring and beautiful spirits. Your passion for life and people is clear. May you be blessed in all of your adventures.
This was such a cool video. These people seem so happy and content. I’m so glad they were not forced to change like so many other indigenous people around the world. Thanks for sharing your incredible experience with the rest of us.
This was truly beautiful. I love how you really allowed yourselves to integrate into the family and culture. I agree that incorporating play into chores and taking your time with it adds a lot of beauty and happiness into daily living!
I am always a bit critical when western people go to visit indigenous people for entertainment purposes. But I have to say that you filmed it in a very restrained, accessible and considerate way and brought it closer to us. I hope they get some of your TH-cam earnings.
Two of the most adorable people found each other and share it with us. 😭🖤
It's so nice watching you guys go places where others wouldn't want to go and experience all these diverse cultures. Thank you very much. Also, in my country (Ghana), people do eat the grub but its fried. So much love from Ghana.
So cool! Greetings from New Mexico!
What a humbling experience! I love how friendly they are. Such beautiful people
That was really something! How you guys just fit in no matter where you go...eating worms, wearing tree bark for pants, etc...and sweating constantly in that environment...something not everyone would be willing to do. Very special indeed! Thank you for sharing it with us!
This video is critically underrated. Why such low views?! I LOVED this video. Please don’t feel discouraged over the views this was genuinely such a good video Kara and Nate!
Thanks so much 🥹 needed that little encouragement boost!!🙏🏻
Wow!!! I can only imagine how you felt… because I didn’t want you to leave. I felt so bonded to them. I now care about them. I care about protecting them and learning from them m. What beautiful beautiful beautiful wonderful people! ❤
There is one thing besides silence that is universal… love actually takes action to show. Love in action is the gift that we give each other. When love is the root of all you do joy is the product of what you make.
Thank you so much for introducing us to them, thank you so much for being willing to take such a wild journey that makes me stretched, in the most wonderful of ways.
I was trying to imagine how this place smells and whether the rain was warm. I love how they just get on with it and try everything. What an adventure.
I’ll say it again…..It’s not a great Saturday without watching a Kara and Nate video to get the day started!! Great job in always finding wonderful content!!
Watching Kara and Nate is literally my happy place. I had an awful day and came on to find a new video and for 45 mins I was able to de-stress.
This is by far my favorite video from Kara and Nate. With the negative things we see and read on the news, being able to watch the simple life style that this small group of jungle tribe is living with full of appreciation for nature and earth is heartwarming. Thank you for what you do guys. ❤
I just love the real reaction and hospitality you guys received from the tribe people, and showing them your drone. Such a nostalgic feeling showing us that there are so much happiness away from the digital world. Well Done Kara and Nate. Thank you
Who would've thought all those years ago, that these kids I followed on their first trips around the world would become such epic adventure-film-makers! Absolutely awesome video, it was such a thoughtful, measured depiction of the Mentawai family you stayed with 10/10
Why am I crying 🥹 Meeting Salomo and rest of family their energy is so beautiful 🥰 this is such a testament to how living remotely can really preserve such a beautiful way of life and protect your energy from some of the toxic things that go on in societies.
With yesterday having been so rough, the positivity from a Kara and Nate video is what I need right now. Thank goodness for you guys! ❤️❤️❤️ I’m gonna go make coffee for myself and then sit down to watch. ❤️❤️❤️
Hope you have a better day today 💖🫶🏼
Wow I’m speechless. This was so amazing to watch. I learned about a culture I didn’t know about. I loved to see how they live and how generous and loving they are. Obviously your story telling always on point guys! Reminded me a little of your time in Bhutan. Thanks for sharing ❤️
Omg Kara’s friendship with the natives sooo cute
The simpler the life, the happier people are.
It takes true bravery and an insatiable curiosity to immerse yourselves in a completely different way of life, far away from the comforts we often take for granted. Your dedication to understanding and respecting diverse cultures is truly inspiring! 👏. Kara and Nate your smiles radiate positivity throughout the entire video! Your infectious joy and genuine enthusiasm are truly uplifting. remind us to find joy in the simplest of moments. 😄✨ Thank you for sharing your adventures with us. Wishing you both many more adventures filled with smiles and an abundance of positivity. Keep spreading the joy!
I’m 9:24 min in and it’s already my FAVORITE video of theirs. I’ve been following since the Everest base camp journey. All their content recently is on another level 👍🏻 but they just continue to showcase how genuinely beautiful people they are and that there still is in this world. Thank you so much for this gorgeous video.
Genuine and beautiful
I really love your videos but this one is so awesome, what an honor they bestowed apon Nate making his outfit. Such a Beautiful tribe, I hope you make more like this ❤ watching Solomo calling the drone magic made me smile and tear up
It took exactly the length of this video to run my second treadmill 5k. I run the first watching you do your Marathon with Russ. Thanks for the vibes guys!
I love how you developed such a great bond with the tribe having only been there for a few days! It’s also so amazing how strong Salomo is! I love this video ❤
One thing I have to mention that is it doesn't matter what corner of the world they are traveling the morning coffee by Nate for Kara is mandatory 🌼🖤
This was absolutely fascinating to me, because that's where my Dad's side of the family is from and I've never set foot on the island. I so want to one day, thank you for bringing this into my living room and for being so real about the experiences. You're always so open minded, it's a joy to watch 💕
Awesome!
Wow, you have an old channel.
This tops just about anything you have ever done. And that's saying a heck of a lot. Once again God bless you and thank you for bringing all of us along on your adventure 😊❤
Definitely one of my favorite videos of Kara and Nate. I felt like I was there with you. What beautiful people the Mentowai are. It’s a gift to be simple. Thank you for sharing this with us!
This has to be my favorite of all time Kara and Nate video. The happiness, peace, love and positive energy around this tribe is palpable. How they work together and how they live off the land is absolutely amazing. Thank you for sharing this amazing experience with us.
