    Thanks for the love on this video! We are so glad you enjoyed it as much as we did 🥰 If you want to watch our beautiful train journey that brought us to Lake Titicaca, watch the video we posted over on our @DailyDrop channel!! 😁➡️ th-cam.com/video/-lD9eSdlfzo/w-d-xo.html 🚂 (plus we shared how you can book the same train for free using points!!)

      @BlingQueen: You should come to the big rig challenge it’s at the end of may. It’s in onaway mi it’s huge. Thousands of people come to a little town of under 900. Semi uphill drag racing. Would make a good episode

      ​@@leensalocinRight, I'm only 7min in but the complaining about the prices and calling it a tourist trap because it didn't _seem_ authentic enough was off-putting. Nate's always been frugal but over the years, he's let up a lot ...so coupled with Kara's comments, this came off as if they felt this community isn't worth what they charge. I've seen much older videos of other content creators visiting this village and there was no mention of entry fee or high prices so it's actually nice to know indigenous folks have started making people pay for the "show." I'm sure the tone of the video will get back on track to what I'm used to from these two. Odd.

  • @rmyerscmi
    @rmyerscmi ปีที่แล้ว +163

    I've noticed Kara is getting more reflective on their lives. I feel it wouldn't take much to coax Kara to stay and teach a while at one of these schools. She'd be a great ambassador.

    My great grandmother was indigenous to the mik'maw lands and they were fishermen and hunter/gatherer. My father embraced these customs and I very much grew up in a similar fashion. Thank you for respecting and honouring these indigenous humans, their land, their water/earth and recognizing the beauty of the way they live. Wela'lin Nitap (thank you friend) in mik'maw.

    I love the humility Nate talked about at the end of the video. I’ve visited a lot of places that are typically “touristy” and have since realized the same. I went to Egypt after the revolution there in 2011 and they were so desperate for tourists to come back, I could feel their desperation. So many of these countries have so little infrastructure and employment, tourism might be their only income. I also work in Alaska and because the cruise lines couldn’t come there for two years, many small business closed because they are so dependent on tourism-whole families had to leave the state that had been there for generations. I’ve still met genuine citizens at the touristy places as well. Thank you for this video. Loved it. ❤

    It truly warmed my heart at the end to hear Nate say that this stay made him rethink his view on tourism on Lake Titicaca. That is one thing that I have found so refreshing watching Kara and Nate...they are willing to open up and be vulnerable with their community. Also they are not afraid to say "I was wrong". I have 4 travel/van lifers that I watch religiously...Kara and Nate, Eamon and Bec, Nomadic Movement (Jordan & Kaylee) as well as Kinging It (Craig and Amy) All 4 of these channels will never leave you feeling like you regret watching there video...sure there will be times where maybe they are not their 100% happy positive vibes normal selves but they will never put down others and they will never make you feel like you are less than they are. Good people.

    Love y’all! I wait every Saturday for when yall post and get so excited! It’s awesome to see where y’all started from and where y’all are now. That being said, I want to thank y’all for the joy you’ve brought into my life ever since I started watching you guy’s amazing content. You guys have encouraged me to travel around the world (and mostly in vans) once I get out of college. Also, by the way, if anybody’s reading this, and has not signed up for the daily drop, I recommend you do! It’s a total game changer in the traveling industry. Same for Faredrop! I use it anytime I’m looking to book a flight anywhere and let me just tell you it finds flights that are SOOOO MUCH CHEAPER!! And it’s not a hastle to find them and all!! I love you guy’s energy and open heart to want to try uncomfortable things and seek far outside of your comfort zone. You guys are not just any cookie-cutter travel vlogging channel. I can tell by Kara’s amazing editing skills and Nate’s heart to always seek adventure(same for Kara lol). It is an amazing experience to watch. When I watch yalls videos, I feel like I’m standing right next to y’all in the adventure that y’all take! It’s really inspiring. So I want to thank Kara and Nate again (hopefully, you guys get to read this 😊) for putting all of your time and effort into organizations like those and still find the time to live life to the fullest, and share your journeys with us!!💗💗 happy traveling!!
    - sending love from the great state of Louisiana!!

    Woooow!! So many feelings right now!! This was such an amazing video! You can see how special the experience was, full of learning, sharing time with Luis and his family and simply enjoying slow life! I got emotional at so many points of the video 🥺 Also because this experience made me think of my dad, recently passed away. He moved from Germany to Spain (which is the reason I exist 😂) to learn Spanish so he could travel to Perú, which was a dream of his. He then met my mom and stayed in Spain, and only got to live his dream 20 years later. And one of the places he visited was Lake Titicaca, and he stayed with a local family as well. I wish I can experience that place myself one day!

    Love love love this new type of video!!! Love the self reflection we get to hear about, and love the realness. Also love that you got to quiet down a little bit in your hectic lives. I only lasted one year at a time travelling. Then I was tired or exhausted. I lived with a family in north India, in Himachal Pradesh for a month and it felt like a lot longer. I often think about them still, even though this was 2007-8.
    Please more content like this. This is my way of travelling. ❤❤❤❤❤ /Livvey from Sweden

    I went to Lake Titicaca in 2019 and stayed with a family/helped with chores and to cook dinner. It was the most amazing experience. The little girl we were staying with gave me a "hot water bottle" for sleeping overnight since it was so cold. It was literally a plastic water bottle filled with hot water and wrapped up. Best night sleep ever. Your peru videos are making me so so happy!!!!!

    Wow. What an amazing trip and how beautiful is this family. I would love to donate to the family since it hard to get to Peru. It amazing what they have to do to make a living but you can feel the love of this family and how they welcome us to their home.❤❤❤

    This was such a great video. It felt like a breath of fresh air for you (or maybe us!) After the intensity of the Monkey Run. We were so thrilled to see you in such a happy place. I wonder how many (like us) immediately looked up the airbnb link! ? ❤ We definitely would love to experience this when we pass through ... as always, thank you for your next level content!

    I am not sure if its how you edited this or your caring natures but this kinda brought me to tears at moments. The lovely view as the sun rose at 430 AM, the warmth in how you spoke about helping them with gas. I got in my feels somehow. We should all be so grateful.

  • @rebeccarendle3706
    @rebeccarendle3706 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    Brilliant guys... well done for recognising how much tourism can be a GOOD THING because it supports locals survive... and even greater that you both admitted the error in your way of thinking.
    Ps the sunset and sunrise was stunning.. so glad you went fishing Nath.

    Ok I understand people have their own journeys but I just have to say.. IF you EVER decide to or are blessed with a baby I would definitely watch that content; watching Kara with kids in these last few videos really displays her love for children and what a great mom she’d be. If no kids ever come don’t worry we’re still gonna watch lol just wanted to say it’s very sweet to see ❤

I hope Bri and Kara can somehow keep in touch, or if that is not possible, perhaps Kara and Nate will visit them again. My heart feels light and rejuvenated. Thank you, Kara and Nate for showing us this amazing community ❤

    Ok, just hear me out I ABSOLUTELY LOVEEEEEEEE this channel and I have been watching them for about a year & 1/2, and every time there is a kid or baby involved in there travels they do soooo well with the kid! Obviously they are doing full time travel and don’t live in there home on wheels anymore so having a kid is not on their agenda but I’m just saying if they do ever have a kid, they are going to be the best parents ever! ❤❤❤

    This was so special on every level. I have to admit that tourist places can be come a trap but coming from the Caribbean (Dominican Republic) I also understand the importance of the tourism on must countries around the world. Actually some towns back In the DR make their living out of the tourist that visit them. And there is many ways we can get to know the culture of a country by being a tourist too, meaning visit them, staying at the airbnbs, eating at their restaurants, renting cars, using the services of local guides, purchasing small goods or souvenirs. Next time anyone visit a country stop and talk to the locals that work in those all inclusive hotels or those who work in the restaurants listen to their stories and it will make you understand the importance of the tourism. Thank you Kara and Nate for revising your initials thoughts and showing your subscribers that yes traveling is not only a personal sometimes selfish experience but also how it helps the communities we visit.
