This video is days 4-6 of our van life road trip to the tip of the Baja peninsula! We left our beautiful cliffside campsite near Ensenada and filled up the van with diesel for the first time, ate street tacos, stocked up on popsicles, and got stopped at our first military check point. Then we headed south to Bahia de Los Angeles where we wild camped for the first time. AKA we slept on a beautiful secluded beach for FREE?! We accidentally went 3 days off the grid without internet, and by day 4 we finally made our way to a cafe to check in with our families who were worried about us ;) That's where we met our new friends, @Mr and Mrs Adventure ❤️ Check out their channel for the ultimate 3 month Baja trip! They gave us tons of tips for the rest of our time here ☀️

Who are Kara and Nate?!

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. 😊🎥🌎
