Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the #travel bug! We started “travel hacking” & finally decided we wanted to 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! So we extended our 1 year trip to now FOUR years :) Now we have a goal of traveling to 100 countries before 2020! We are incredibly thankful to do something we love every day. :)

Who are Kara and Nate?!
Watch our documentary here:

Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married 2013 and were super “normal.” I was a teacher and Nate started a small printing business from the spare bedroom of our apartment. We discovered the world of “travel hacking” & became obsessed. So after 2 years of obsessively 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 ran 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. ????????????

Join me on a full tour (in 4K) of Echo, the world's most remote luxury camp in Antarctica. Inspired by astronauts, Echo sits on a massive glacier in quiet solitude encircled by ice-covered rock formations. The futuristic camp is managed by White Desert and can only be reached by private flight.

The video includes the flight to Echo, a full tour of Echo, fine dining in Antarctica, as well as the activities around Echo (e.g. hiking, abseiling, biking, ice climbing and exploring a crevasse). Keep watching tell the end for a fun party in a stunning ice bar!

Heavy Snowfall Solo Camping | Ep.7

Solo camping in the snow in a hot tent.
Weather has suddenly changed from rain to heavy snow.

It was raining lightly when we arrived at the campsite.

The rain melted the snow, and it was very difficult to set up because our feet were buried in the snow.

After setting up safely, we grilled delicious steaks on the wood stove and went to bed.

By night, the rain had turned to snow.

The tent was very spacious and safe to sleep in.

When I woke up in the morning, I was surprised to see a lot of snow on the ceiling of my tent.

The weight of the snow bent the tent poles.

The snow shoveling went very smoothly.

After breakfast, we relaxed a bit and then took a nap.

When I woke up from my nap, the weather had changed to heavy snow.

There was quite a bit of snow around the tent.

We felt that if the snow continued to fall at this rate, the tents were in danger of being buried, so we began to take them down in a hurry.

We managed to complete the cleanup by sundown.

It was a camp where we learned about weather changes and the greatness of nature.

Thank you for watching.

Sleeping in a tent in interior Antarctica? Here’s a tour of our extreme polar base camp

How we spent a night on ice Antarctica (camped in the snow)

We slept on ice in Antarctica in a bivvy bag, that looks like a fancy body bag. Sounds fun, right? Well, stick around as we discover not every adventure is as glorious as it seems.

Ep 21 Field Training (We slept outside in Antarctica!)

Every Australian Antarctic expeditioner must undergo field training before winter really sets in which means one thing - the night in the bivi (bivouac). As well as some orientation and equipment training, we take a hike, make of meal of emergency rations, and sleep (very little) in what amounts to a one persons tent without poles.

Extreme Ice Camping in ANTARCTICA

The most EXTREME and INTENSE night of my life was ice camping in Antarctica!

EXPLORING ANTARCTICA WITH CAMPING (PART 1)

We spent 5 days in Antarctica with Gadventure Expedition. Here's how some of our landings at Antarctica looks like and we visited Port Lockroy which has the World's southernmost Post office and souvenir shop. One of the crazy things we have done is spending 1 night camping on Antractica. It's definitely once in a lifetime experience!

Antarctica camping in polar cruises

You might have heard about the possibility of camping on cruises to Antarctica, or perhaps you know someone who has done it. But what is this craziness all about? Why would anyone want to go camping in Antarctica? Still more puzzlingly, why would anyone leave behind a comfortable bed on a perfectly good cruise ship to spend a night outside on the ice?

There must be a reason, because passengers gladly pay extra to do exactly that. For many who choose to camp in Antarctica, the reason is simple: they do it because it’s an opportunity to experience something extraordinary, something unique, something they can’t do anywhere else.

Camping in Antarctica will significantly increase the time you spend in direct contact with the polar environment. As the sun slowly sets, you can forget about time and let your senses fully absorb the awesomeness of this legendary wilderness. Maybe you would like to spend a few more quality hours in the company of penguins. Or perhaps you would simply like to find a peaceful place away from the group to enjoy the drama of ever-changing evening light on the mountains. In the stillness of the gathering night, you might hear the haunting chorus of Weddell seals, subliminally singing as they slumber on their drifting beds of ice. Glaciers rumble and icebergs crack in the deepening cold, sending sonic reverberations that echo for miles. Close your eyes and these otherworldly sounds will follow you into dreams.

Sign up for Antarctica Camping well in advance because space in this popular activity fills up quickly! More information here:

Camping in Antarctica | Plush Places with Rahul Jagtiani

What’s it like to camp in Antarctica? Spending a night on the frozen continent is a surreal experience. Mine involved digging a pit to lay my sleeping bag. Pin drop silence, except for the occasional sounds of ice carvings made it all the more magical. Watch this one minute snippet of Plush Plush Places with Rahul Jagtiani
