    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. 😊🎥🌎

    Hey y’all! I love Van life, and I’m an absolutely MASSIVE Motorsport fan. In fact, I’m an amateur sim racer! INDYCAR, is basically Formula 1, American cousin. The garage is where the drivers and their teams make adjustments to their cars, to make the car better around the course. The INDY500 is one of the world’s most renowned races. I love that people like y’all, who are mostly camping fans and things, coming out of their comfort zones and doing something super fun like going and watching a full race. It makes me so happy to know that you want to do things that aren’t of the “ordinary” and do these kinds of things! I hope y’all had fun, and best of luck with the Van!

Thank you for sharing.

    Wow! What a privilege to be able to see what goes on inside the Indy 500. I'm a fan that watches all the time but to even get to see the inside a famous driver's RV just blows my mind! This is a great video. One thing I have done for several years is make contact with the Indy 500 amateur radio (hams) special events station each year. They add lots of excitement from there too!

    I'm so glad you went to the race, I've gone to the race many times and was at 2 of the races when Helio won. I'm glad that you weren't into racing and enjoyed it. A lot of people aren't into racing but experiencing the Indy 500 has to be on everyone's bucket list. Nate said it best when he said it pulls at all of your senses, not to mention emotions! That's what I love about the race, I'm glad you were able to spend a few days there and actually get to understand the team aspect plus how difficult it is to win. There is a lot more to it than just driving around in an oval for 200 laps (500 miles). Thanks for doing our state right!

I remember when we first binged watched Kara and Nate (way way back in the beginning - when there were less subscribers) I always looked for your positive inspiring comments. With the thousands of comments now I was surprised to see you (well your name 😀) Take care... Just wanted to say hi 🇨🇦

    thank you for doing this! I usually attend the race every year, often with media credentials, but I’ve never made it into a driver’s RV before. And Helio, he was a legend when you met him, but now he’s a super legend! So amazing you were there to see the incredible celebration after his win. I hope someone told you that that’s not what usually happens, the driver just usually pulls up onto the hydraulic lift to the podium where they do wreath-milk-ring. The celebration for Helio‘s fourth win was healing joy for all we’ve all been through in the last year. Really enjoyed this video!
