Who are Kara and Nate?!
Watch our documentary here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FuFv4iF8wgg&t=1s
Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married 2013 and were super “normal.” I was a teacher and Nate started a small business from the spare bedroom of our apartment. We discovered the world of “travel hacking” & became obsessed. So after 2 years of saving $35k and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016 for a “one year” trip around the world. Our goal was to see as many places as possible before we rean out of money and went home to normal life. We started this travel vlog to share our experiences with friends and family, but quickly fell in love with this lifestyle and did everything we could to keep going. 4 years later, we achieved our new goal of visiting 100 countries and all 7 continents. We had no plans to slow down, until 2020 forced us to 😉 Which is when we bought a converted van to start exploring our own country for the first time. Van life 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. 😊🎥🌎

5:57 Wise and kind of her to mention that. That got automatically Liked too as well as other thoughtful things in this video for new potential RV owners

This RV shits all over these vans I’m sorry it’s true 😂😂😂
😄😄😄😄😄THIS IS THE BEST MOBILE HOME ABOVE ALL IN THE WORLD!!!!! i am convinced about that! … Actually i want it exactly the same! i LOVE IT! That’s my choice😄🙂
I’ve never seen somebody so excited to show the bathroom and a van 😂
So when are you guys getting one?! :)))
What a great video. I love that you really showed the comparison between doing it yourself, and where the money goes in a higher priced vehicle. Thank you for showing that difference. For all of us, in doubt as to whether we could get a better deal if we do it ourselves. This really shows a good point of view. Thanks.
Where do you do the laundry
And you can buy a decent Diesel Pusher for about the same price probably a 40-footer to
Take my money, Winnebago! 😅
The thumbnail is really confusing
This guy gives me Brian laundry vibes hes a jerk to his significant other im surprised his wife is still with him
Bozeman plates!
Nate Kira get your self a ekko if u want sell your sprinter
Trucker Here.
I shit in a bag and toss it out the window we call that truck dumping the the industry. I’ve grown accustomed to it
i came to dislike the video because your thumbnail is clearly clickbait. why are the pricetags swapped? it’s very obvious which one is the 180k van… just make a proper thumbnail without trying to mislead people.
Home is where the heart is
Honestly they love the ekko so much they should buy it!I love your channel guys!
I really like the look of it. I will say when you did the inside going through things it was loosing points with me. The fit and finish of the inside felt cheap. The drawers and the bed especially
Anytime i see these videos, I wonder, how many spare tires do they have on board?
Idk how to simply hang a picture in my house so van life for me would be a tragedy
i wonder why they dont have a kid yet
I want to go in the bathroom and then get someone to turn it to see where is go.
My dream car
The Ekko van physically looks like a firefighting Hot Shot buggy on the outside or a ambulance.
my grandmother has a camper van that has the same bathroom and bedroom plz replie nate or kara
Love the video but the toilet operation is open the flap,do your business ,flush, then close the flap. You do not crap on the flap !
We had a van like this, and on the rear bed we slept feet pointing sideways so the bit missing wouldn’t matter so much. Not sure if you could fit that way in this van.😊
The thumbnail prices are backwards lol
They must do it all day
I really think you should buy the ekko!!

People act like $40 grand is a drop in the bucket. I wanna see $3-$5k vs $180k and see your amazing results — because honestly, people who NEED to live like this DO NOT have $40 grand!
different camper same location
id love to have a van life but my clostrophobia would freak out !!!!
Those weird things under the mattress were actually originally designed for boats in order to reduce moisture and mold. At least that’s what I was told 🤷♂️.
Do more videos like this
Damn, the Van got more outlets than my house..
As you are a youtuber with 3 million subscribers, why dont you just get a better van? You should have enough money with all the videos you make
I’m still so confused how you found a converted sprinter at that price? nowadays an unconverted transit is pushing 50k
How do you guys make money? Is youtube your primary source of income or do you guys work save money and then go on trips?
Nate needs some new jeans. 😝
I love the Ekko! It’s so sweet.
Who would buy a camper van that costs as much as a house? WTF?
Love your videos…Keep the van life going
Converted sprinter van
That is a cool van
