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 KZfaq channel 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. :)

The Jordanian tourism board owes you both. Your blogs from Jordan have so many of us looking at airfares and dreaming of walking in your footsteps and eating the same meals.... except the sheep head. It looks like an amazing place and not too over run by tourists. Thanks for climbing the 850 steps for us!!

I did this walk and the hike in October and felt as if I have conquered the world . Never I would have imagined to do anything physically taxing . Also it was just mind blowing .

❤️I was just there in Petra in January! 🇯🇴 PETRA TRAVEL TIPs: instead of buying the expensive Bedouin Coat, we bargained with the shop owner and he let me RENT IT for the day for $35! I came unprepared for the cold so it was a life saver. ALSO - the shops get progressively less expensive the further you walk. Don’t buy from the first shop... keep walking!

Petra is notorious for the ill-treatment of its horses and donkeys you can see in this video how they are forced to run on cobblestone streets, hit repeatedly and just not taken care of. Very sad and one hopes tourists would stop supporting this cruel business. There have been efforts by some organizations to deal with it I don't know how successful they are from this video it would appear not

Hi! A small correction on what Nate said about the Nabateans. They weren’t necessarily just thieves, they were nomads that became small time to big time traders. Petra (which had a different name then) over time became a major trading post and the Nabateans controlled several routes in the area until the Romans came and did what they do. It’s believed that Petra once was a very large glowing city with several oases and man-made water routes too. As usual I love the video though and can’t wait for the next one!

I haven't watched this vid as I want to watch in order......started at "The Beginning".......I'm now at your India train ride....a year ago. Having a panic attack now......i'M ALMOST CAUGHT UP....about another 100 vids to go......but then I also realize your 100 country deal is almost over.....and WHAT AM I GONNA DO WHEN THIS IS ALLLLLLL OVER???!!!????!!!! Nate.....as Kara would say....."I'm so sad"....... You guys have become to the travel world as Chip & Joanna Gains are to Real Estate....Do you know them???? Magnolia Farms out of Waco Texas. TV show Fixer Upper they have....& a bunch of business's.... .well...you guys are definitely turning out like them.....THEY ARE AWESOME. You guys should open a travel agency after this is over......
