Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the #travel bug! We started “travel hacking” & finally decided we wanted to go travel for one year. After 2 years of saving $ and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016. We started this #travelvlog to share our experiences with friends and family, then decided we really liked vlogging and traveling, and we didn’t want to stop after just one year! After achieving our new goal of 100 countries and then all 7 continents (check out our documentary here: • 100th COUNTRY DOCUMENTARY , we had no plans to slow down, until 2020 decided to force us to ;) which is when we bought a converted Sprinter van to start exploring our own country for the first time. #Vanlife was a major adjustment and so different than flying every week like we were used to, but we are incredibly thankful to be able to continue doing something we love every day. 😊🎥🌎
Wall Drug is the classic "tourist trap" but in the best way. As long as you embrace it for what it is, it's tons of fun. Badlands National Park is just stunning.
Don't you dare forget about Buc-ee's, now.
You sounded like my dad at the start lmao, he's always said it was a tourist trap.
Today is a sad day. After months of binge watching K&N, I have finally watched all 764 videos. Discovered this channel middle of last year from the Mount Everest vlogs and went back and started watching from day one. I love the channel enjoy exploring the world through their eyes.
Try Off the ranch. Might enjoy
I know the feeling. Now you have to wait for their new uploads
I started "at the beginning" when I was in quarantine with Covid. It's gonna take me awhile to get through them all!!
Try Bald & bankrupt
@@kristahistand1118 enjoy the ride, it is a fun experience. Some evenings I watched 10-15 episodes.
I love this unpretentious, very natural and down to earth couple. Looking at those influencers who introduce expensive handbags and fashion styles make me feel their lives are impractical.
Kay Getaway impractical? If it makes them happy than who cares. Some people find extreme happiness and fulfillment in a material world
I absolutely loved the moment the resistance band snapped. Like- that was the most real, unedited thing and I love it. Plus need me a partner who kisses me a wake and says coffee is ready. *aww emoji*
@@chiyuuyukiful I am sure you let a few go. ? Because you were not in love
Don’t feel bad Kara, I, my 47 years, have believed that Narwhals were mythical creatures and not real until recently. Now I question everything “Wait, is it real?”
To be fair, narwhals do seem like they shouldn't be real. :)
Yes!! There’s no reason that a jackalope couldn’t be real when narwhals exist.
I was right now years old when I learned that narwhals are, in fact, real.
I'm so used to being the kind of person that doesn't like sleeping outside, camping and van life stuff and I really adore the comfort I have at home and indoors in general. But the more I watch your videos, the more lighthearted and adventurous I become and the more fun it seems to me to get out of the comfort zone and do some of the things that you do. Thank you for not only being fun but also an inspiration!
I love the low key shade...
"Since Hot Ones has never invited us on the show, we're just going to do our own version."
SO do we!!! Love van life.
cmon there’s sooo many youtubers i wouldn’t be surprised if they didn’t know who they are
@@elymorales7021 Just having fun. I'm sure Hot Ones won't ever see my comment either.
Hot ones only invites celebs or really famous influencers tho so the shade is uncalled for
the real question is would you rather fight 1 horse sized jackelope or 100 jackelope sized horses, hmmm
hmmmmm 🕵️♀️
100 Jackalope sized horses
its so nice to see kara remembering the story behind the picture with the drum.After countless experiences she still remembered the whole night clearly :)
it must take them twice as long for the hikes they do because of the video footage they have. it is amazing.
I can never get over every single video Nate brings her coffee as soon as she wakes up even living with people in remote places!
Kara and Nate are the best duo, and every single week they help everyone including me to figure out where they want to travel to after the pandemic. Thank you so much Kara and Nate!
i think "old-style" advertising signs like that actually do not spoil the views like modern billboards would.
Agreed, it adds a bit of history to our rather boring country haha
Kara is amazing at editing. Its crazy.
I know, each time I watch there videos, I am always amazed at how good the editing is
Practice makes perfect and she is a perfect woman. Love ya too Nate
Oh my gosh! This Aussie family got sucked into stopping at Wall Drug too on our 2 month adventure in our motorhome across America & Canada. It was hysterical. The kids loved the “live” dinosaurs!
I'm so excited you guys did a video on Wall Drug! Definitely my favorite "tourist trap" out there. "Western Disneyland without rides" is the perfect way to describe it. It was lovely to see it again in your video. - Rachel
I discovered this channel a couple weeks ago and I’m HOOKED. Keep up the good work
Same
💗💗💗
Wow! You have a plethora of vids to binge! I'm actually a little jealous.
I did a month ago. Emon & Bec is good too and so is Trent & Allie.
Oh, welcome to the community! Have fun binge watching if you choose to! Starting with the Tokyo flight, you are in for the adventure of a lifetime! Finding Kara and Nate kind of changed my life in all the best ways.
Can we acknowledge the fact that you both were able to find souvenirs with your names on them??
Just discovered y'all yesterday and am proper obsessed after watching like 5 hours 😂 yall are so likeable and fun..please come to The Chesapeake Bay bridge/ Eastern shore of Maryland..legit one of the scariest bridges in America. ..keep making material y'all rock!
Hi
This place is on my road trip list for the end of this month! Can't wait to see it! Thanks for giving me a heads up on what its like! Love your vlogs! :)
You two are such a lovely team and a dream to watch. Your connection between one another and your energy is magnetic. I only recently came across your channel but I absolutely adore your content! Cant wait to see more of your "crazy ideas" love it!
Imagine if this channel turned into “living in a *enter store name here* parking lot for 24 hours” channel. Who needs travel vlogs when you got this?
"Bunnies with antlers don't exist" 🤣
I loved the bloopers of this 🤣...
@@laurenchmielewski7274 too funny! 😂😂
Jackelope: How dare you forget about me
I still don't know if they do or not!?
they do in New Mexico,,lol!
To think they have to walk back to get the camera after transition every time lol
I was thinking that too Haha. And the editing to take all that out haha.
I love the fact that they will drive off without the camera too😂
worth the revenue
Kara that look, whatever it is meant to be, is not good on you, give it back to Nate or donate to goodwill. The jacket shirt thing is about 6 times too big on you!
If they could only use the drone lol the struggles of filming national parks!!
In Bavaria (southern part of Germany) the Jackalope is called "Wolpertinger" and in addition to the antler, he can have wings, too.
The jackalope originated with two teenage brothers in Douglas, Wyoming. "So far as we know, these young boys invented this thing on their own," Branch said. They were hunters and amateur taxidermists, and they sold their first mounted jackalope to a hotel owner in the 1930s.
Not the first time a woman has turned a business around and it certainly won't be the last 🙌🏼
Say it louder for the people in the back!
I found out that my wife is a former porn actress. I swear I don't know what to do.
@@juanpedro4083 Wait, are you fr??
@@juanpedro4083 really? what’s her name that she went by?
@@santanalarkin6118 no
We stopped at Wall Drug for hours in 1969 traveling across the country on a all summer trip around the USA when I was 14. (mini version of your adventures) I had a Wall Drug sign on my bedroom wall for years after. Thanks for bringing back the memories.
Omg I'm in the middle of watching the really old vlogs from the first year and there is SUCH A BIG DIFFERENCE between 2016 Nate talking to a camera and 2021 Nate talking to a camera. Wow.
Did you see the vlog from Nate's brother's wedding during their first year? Nate had always hated public speaking, but he was awesome giving the best man speech. Speaking to the camera for 5 months helped his confidence. Imagine, he's now had something like 5 years practice.
Haha, I was thinking the same yesterday watching the old episodes from Portugal and then jumping on the more recent from Dominican Republic. The difference is huuuuuge.
@@spooniesarah No, I haven't seen that one, but I can only imagine. I watched a clip from one of the earliest videos about how he had to get over his fear of judgement really quickly. It really is interesting to see the change.
@@karolinamackiewicz514 I'm digging through the full set of videos, top to bottom. I'm looking forward to seeing them in countries outside of Asia, but we'll see. No idea how long that will take, but I'm on the ride now!
I'm watching the entire series of Vlogs for the 4th time now, and have done a few individual ones more than that! This last time through I noticed TH-cam deleted my "like" on their videos so I'm going through them all to make sure they get clicked and keep Kara and Nates popularity algorithm up in TH-cam's system. You can see how much Kara and Nate rely on and need (love) each other when you watch the videos like Nate doing a long "travel miles trip" flight by himself and the one where they wanted to see 2 different things in a city on the same day but didn't have time to do both one after the other, so they each went to one by themselves to film it and they hated not experiencing those things with each other.
I have seen every single Kara and Nate video and this video is definitely in my top three. I love you guys so much. Thank you for existing.
Kara and Nate are just so wonderful
KINGING IT!!!! They are amazing! Everybody needs to watch them. Especially their Riskshaw series in India.
You’re on the road so you’ve got to pass a lot of truck stops. HINT a lot of truck stops have showers available, especially bigger ones, some are even really nice. It’s a good option, pull in for gas, some food and a quick shower. I highly recommend.
Agreed, I had to go on a road trip 2 years ago. Going up to a friends cabin. Went by a truck stop, the showers there were really nice and honestly it was super cheap. Definitely recommend.
*I LOOK FORWARD TO THESE UPLOADS EVERY SUNDAY :D Who else feels?!*
I had my first buffalo burger at Wall Drug in 1966,when I was 5 years old. I've visited many times since and I always have a "Where the heck is Wall Drug? " on every vehicle I've owned. My name is Bicycle Bob and I approved this message.
This is place is pure "road trip" Americana. My buddies and I took Harleys from St. Louis to Strugis in 96 and this is a required stop along the way.
Just found your channel, like it so far ( loving it with a few rums :) ) Have been in the U.S and Canada about 20 years ago (14 at the time) LOVED the place and the people. CRAZY how insane some places and people seem on the News here in Australia (mainstream media make U.S.A out to be a war zone most of the time) Absolutely love how the REAL Merica is so wholesome and friendly, even if it is a "Drug store, Truck Stop or Gas stop" (the note for the camp site was sooooo good and would made me feel at home) Just rambling now (too many Rums................NEVER)
Kara just had her Jessica Simpson "Chicken of the Sea" moment! :D
🤣🤣🤣🤣
LOL that was so cute and funny! 😄
Lol .. except Jessica's was way more embarrassing!
That was my first thought too 😂😂😂
To be fair to Jessica Simpson, who calls tuna chicken of the Sea?
I just love how Kara thought Jackalopes rabbit were real 🤣
That was soo cool and sweet! We have something similar in Southern Germany called "Wolpertinger".
Did anyone get so excited about this vid because they have been there before...because I did. 🤪❤️
When
@@fishboy5119 we went in December I think
@@space_geek4927 no when did I ask😏
This is kind of random, but I have been watching a lot of your videos lately and I'm super impressed with your videography! You are able to make it feel like a movie or as if we are with y'all.
I love the chapel. They have those mexican blankets that I like. It amazes me how fit Kara is. I think you balance each other. Kara is fun and easy going. Nate is intense and regimented.
"In this world of ups and downs, isn't it nice to know there are jackalopes around?"
If only duck sized horses were a real thing, I would definitely own a 100 of them! They would be so adorable!!
I mean that’s basically what a goat is
Agreed !
Plastic or real?
Cuz there is plastic ones
Definitely😂
I am from Bavaria South Germany and we also have an animal which almost looks like the Jackalope. It is called Wolpertinger! It even has wings!
I went to South Dakota last year. I couldn't miss out on Wall Drug. It was so much fun!!!
Ok I know this is an old video, but I just discovered you guys and I’m making my way through. #1 - your videos bring me such joy. I
miss traveling so much and watching your vlogs and discovering you two came at a much needed time for “joy”. #2 - Kara, I too thought the mighty Jack-a-lope was real into my young adulthood. For the record, I’m still not convinced they’re NOT out there somewhere. Happy Trails ❤️ Jules
I’m loving the shout out for Eamon & Bec and Kinging It❤️❤️❤️ i’ve been watching them for years as well. You introduced me to the endless adventure & they introduced me to kinging it.
As a South Dakotan I'm so glad you came back and spent some time. The maple donuts are the best for sure, I kept thinking get the maple donuts!! Have a safe rest of your trip.
I love the way Nate makes Kara's coffee and wakes her with a kiss 💋 . Keep that up you two and you'll make it to your 75th Anniversary.
I'm glad to live in such a small town like this! It's amazing, with calm and peaceful sounds.
How do you guys manage to NOT buy souvenirs everywhere you go????? Or do you buy stuff and send it home? It would be super cool if, someday when you've stopped traveling, you were able to open all these boxes of mementos.....
that’s actually a really good idea
Like @DrewBinsky
Maybe they don't want to fill their (eventual) house with shite?! 🤔 Photos, videos and memories are enough, no?
@@ashlynlewis9863 No, it really isn't. The world doesn't need more mass-produced JUNK.
Well they have all of these videos a souvenirs
Thank you for putting so much care into all that you do and making the effort to film it all for us to join along side you and yours journeys! You both are amazing lights in this world and we all love you for it!!! Love your work!!!
“ Where the heck is Wall Drug?” Bumpers stickers everywhere
That’s what I remember about South Dakota- also the Corn Palace 😂
Because of a bizarre series of circumstances.. I needed to choose a place to stay somewhere in this area of SD. Because of this video, I knew Wall was a worthy destination.. I cannot wait to come see it in person in a few weeks! Merci guys!!
I love these 24 hours at places. You guys are so amazing!!!!
These two are the cutest couple to watch ever. Such chemistry and they laugh!
Great video! It was fun getting to meet y’all and even dive with y’all, have a great rest of your trip.
So nice to meet you Julian! Enjoy those fish you shot! 👏🏻
@@KaraandNate I will!
(This is my other account)
Wow, that was a trip down memory lane. I was at Wall Drug during the summer of 1967 when my family drove across the US as we moved to LA. Thanks gang!
Funny thing when Kara and Nate were eating their food in wall drug i sat exactly where Kara sat. I thought that was pretty cool. Love watching your guys video's. Keep up the good work.
12:15 That Moment Brought a smile to my face. I am glad you enjoyed our Country. Please Come again 🙏
Me: how do you make a 20 min video about a drug store 🤔
***watches whole video***
👏 Kara & Nate, well done 👏
My experience in South Dakota with Badlands, Devils tower and Mt. Rushmore was very similar. So cold at Devil's tower and lovely and warm in Badlands. I made it to Rushmore, but might as well not have as it was so foggy you could barely see it 😖 All of this was in 2006 as a very inexperienced 20 year old traveller... so this video has been a brilliant trip down memory lane for me! ❤️🙌 Thank you!
Go in the summer :) It is much nicer starting in May through September.
@@CarrieLuikens I think 2006 must have been a bad weather year as I was there either the last day or 2 of August, or the first day or 2 in September. But Chicago had been miserable weather the whole time before S.Dakota and spending the night in a tent in Cody, WY after South Dakota is an experience I'll never forget - it got SO cold!!
Guys I loved the Q & A! That’d be awesome if you did that more often; Was cool seeing a different / less scripted side of you!
Thanks Kara and Nate for the great video. We just stopped at Walldrug on our way back from Mount Rushmore. It did not disappoint!!
I'm 82 and my father had the driving gene. In the 50's/ before the Interstates. we would take road trips from Chicago and go west. I can remember Wall drug signs in Wisconsin, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri and many other states. Good times.
I absolutely love watching you guys and seeing your adventures all over the world. I have always dreamed of traveling the world but couldn't afford too. Maybe one day! For now living vicariously through your videos!! Love them keep them coming guys!!
Are we not gonna talk about how beautiful Kara looks in this vlog?✨🤩
No 😂😂
@@zarataku9555 LMAOOOO
She always does 🥰
IN EVERY VLOG
I thought the same thing!
*WE HIGHLY APPRECIATE ALL YOUR EFFORTS*
💛💛🙌🙌
Honestly one of my favorite videos I fell like they are acting like this is not even a video.They are just having a blast makes me so happy😄
This is literally my dream/goal I so badly want to get a van or minivan whatever it shall be, and just be able to feel free, peace, no stress and just express my kindess and the love and to meet new people and LIVE life!!! This is awesome I found you through the one resident video and I like you guys instantly nothing but good vibes!!! 💗💞💗💞
I never feel like the minutes I spend watching you guys are wasted! Another enjoyable visit! Thanks!
You guys are so fun to follow! I love it! And LOVE that you were able to get the workout done with the sports bra (so sorry about your resistance band -- you better get a refund)!!!
Thanks Lindsey! 🤩 Sports bra saved the day! I have enjoyed your workouts on the road SO much this year! Thanks for being so awesome and for helping me get stronger 💪🏻💗
Lindsey and Kara and Nate...2 of my TH-cam worlds collide. :)
@RAH Capital Because she's from the Midwest...haha
@RAH Capitalsympathy
Wall Drug is one of our MUST DO's every time we vacation in South Dakota! There's nothing like it, you just gotta do it.
For a second I actually questioned if bunnies with antlers were real… hahahaaaahh I’m dying 😂😂😂😂
about 20 years ago I stopped at wall drug. my friend didn't want to stop. I told him "this wall drug has kept us entertained with road signs for the last few days. tourist trap or not, we need to stop."
When I was kid, I'm 67 when we would visit my Grandparents we always stop at Walls Drug. Always had to buy moccasins.
I'm 50 and from Minnesota so Wall Drug was must-stop since I was about eight
How does Kara still look so amazing when she’s not showered or washer her hair in 5 days?!?!
I'm just scrolling through comments trying to find out where her brown top is from!!!
Kara's secret to looking amazing is obviously happiness ❤️😆
"Leave it to the women" it's my new favorite quote 😁
🤭🤭
Love it!!
@@yesspritenojams1354 🙈🙈
@@GladysandKenny me too!😂 very relatable for my relationship as well
See what the Wynns did last Sunday when Nicki decided to shake things up. Gone with the Wynns.
Always stop for a donut and 5cent coffee! The grandkids love the splash pad!
If you have kids or just anyone with ADD, Wall Drug is perfect. So much to see, it's really hard to describe.
We appreciate everything that you do for us viewers. I literally wait for Sundays to watch what you have in store for us. Keep doing and keep entertaining us while taking care of yourselves.
Stay safe guys.
Love from India 🇮🇳
Wall Drug is such a great place. I remember when it was just one HUGE building and it kept growing and growing.
You both are so easy to watch, we were watching and decided to watch from the beginning. I love that you both are just yourselves and some how manage to take us on the experience with you. Love, love this channel our favorite for sure ! ❤
The signs used to be all over the country. They slowly disappeared over the years. Always wanted to go, but never got to. Thanks for the tour and saving me a trip.
OMG im so happy to see youve been to zimbabwe thats my home country its such an unkown country its so cool to see you there!
No shower in 5 days?? Guys use the truck stop showers. They're clean and it only cost you about 10$ per person. Includes 100% privacy and clean towels
Flying J

TA
Nate is too cheap for that; he's very frugal.
No get a gym membership it's $10 a month per person not $10 a shower.
For heaven's sake who said they didn't use a soapy hot wash cloth for underarms and private parts? Stop having a panic. Besides, they sleep with each other, not you!
Embrassingly, my no shower record is 9 days. The first and only time going to Burning Man!
When I was around 3 my Mom took me here. The ice cream is so amazing, and tastes way better than Ben&Jerrys. The things your see are crazy, and how just 818 people keep that place running, (+tourists) is crazy. Keep up the good work!
“I don’t like it when he leaves his crap everywhere” 😹😹😹😹
Kara I’m shocked you didn’t know what chicken fried chicken was! How have you never had that?!? Haha love the vlogs! ❤️
Did you notice that you don't have any dislikes that's because everyone loves you guys
Petition for Kara and Nate to get a boat and travel the world:
no
@@ArtIsDrawing why not
Yes
Put the van on a ferry and boom big brain
Now you have just gone up to my number one couple on TH-cam! I am so glad that you went to Wall Drug and the Badlands! ♥️♥️♥️
I literally couldn't concentrate on anything else after Kara said they hadn't showered for 5 days. Until of course the part where she said SEVEN days!!!
shower is overrated :D
i’m not going to lie i think this is my fave video you guys have made because i feel like i really got to know you while you were eating hot sauce
Yes! The famous Wall Drug signs. We had to stop. So much fun. Your video brought back all of those memories.
We appreciate everything you do for us🤗
Kara and Nate! Our favourite TH-cam couple ❤️ love from South Africa 🇿🇦
As a 10 year old in 1977, it was amazing, iconic, and you're right, it's all about the anticipation! I dorve there in the summer with my grandparents in a 1963 Dodge pickup without AC!
I have a boring , sheltered husband and we live vicariously thru watching your videos. Your van is so nice BTW.
I was super concerned until about 17 min in when Nate FINALLY tried the donuts!!! When I think of Wall Drug, I think of those donuts. They are very similar to the ones we had at the top of Pikes Peak. There’s also the Hotel Alex Johnson in Rapid City that is super cool. They used to have a pretty great chocolate shop in the lobby.
Did they try the sticky buns though?
"My face kinda hurts." Another classic K&N video!! Shame about missing Mount Rushmore. I had just watched the movie North by Northwest (1959) so was looking forward to seeing things in 2021.
