WHO ARE KARA AND NATE?!
New here? We are full-time travel vloggers with a goal of visiting 100 countries before 2019. We make daily travel videos. In these videos you can expect to see the best foods and adventures of every country we visit. ;)
Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the travel bug! We started traveling full-time January 10, 2016. While daily vlogging was not the original plan, we were having way too many cool experiences not to share every single day! Now travel vlogging is our full-time gig and we feel like we have the greatest job in the world! We are incredibly thankful to do something we love every day. :)
We’ve pulled inspiration from several of our favorite travel vloggers on YouTube, such as: +CaseyNeistat +FunForLouis +Jon Olsson +Mr Ben Brown , and any other talented travel vloggers that YouTube’s algorithm will hopefully connect us with ;)

Visiting San Pedro de Atacama, Chile
For the past several days we've called San Pedro de Atacama home. This frontier town in the northern parts of Chile straddles the border with Bolivia and Argentina. It is an launching pad for a series of outdoors adventures that include excursions to nearby volcanoes, lagoons, deserts, lakes and more surreal landscapes. As such it is a popular hangout for backpackers and travelers to arrange these trips and tours. One can also do onward travel to Bolivia via a Uyuni Salt Flat tour or to Argentina all the way to Salta. We show you what the town is like including some of the main streets, squares, restaurants, bars and ice cream parlors. It's a dusty town with lots of friendly stray dogs.
Visiting San Pedro de Atacama, Chile Travel Video Transcript:
Good afternoon from the town of San Pedro de Atacama in Chile. We've been here a few days taking a few different day trips to visit volcanoes and lagoons and see flamingos and doing lots of cool stuff. We've seen lots of wildlife, we've seen some amazing landscapes. And now we're going to show you the town. It's actually quite small and there isn't a lot to do but if you're taking tours from here you're going to end up spending a bit of time in San Pedro so yeah let's go take a little tour. A little walk around. Sounds good to me.
Bienvenidos a San Pedro de Atacama. Si! And this place is pretty cool because in the distance, in the background you can see volcanoes. You have volcanoes right over there. Let me run out to the street. There.
So next up we're going to take you down a street called Caracoles. And this is like the main street in the whole town. This is where you can find ice cream shops, bars, restaurants, tour operators, laundry places. Whatever you could need and that is over this way. This way. This way. Come.
What are your overall impressions of the town after having spent a few days here? Yeah, it's a decent place to hang out. This is not the kind of town where you come to linger. It's a launching pad for a whole bunch of other activities. You can also go to Bolivia to do the Uyuni salt flat tours as well. And you can also cross over to Argentina to go to Salta which is what we're going to do tomorrow. Yeah, so come here book a tour, take some trips and eat well. Yes.
And our last stop of this little tour of San Pedro is the main square. Yes. This is where you'll find live music and lot of dogs running around. Yeah, some live music is happening as we speak.
And that is a wrap from San Pedro. We are now finishing things off with a few clips from Carnival because 'yes' we're in the thick of carnival season. Ciao. Ciao ciao.
This is part of our Travel in Chile series. We're making a series of videos showcasing Chilean culture, Chilean arts, Chilean foods, Chilean religion, Chilean cuisine and Chilean people.

OMG Trip 42: Chile - Atacama desert, San Pedro de Atacama
Turismo caur web page
Jeden deň sme len tak ležali v posteli a z ničoho nič nás napadla myšlienka dlhodobejšieho cestovania. Začali sme pomaly s plánovaním, ale takým reálnym sa to stalo, až keď sme v decembri 2017 kúpili prvú letenku do Iránu a oznámili to rodine. Našu cestu okolo sveta sme nazvali ako OMG trip, pretože na začiatku to naozaj bolo stále také neuveriteľné: óóóó môj Bože, my naozaj ideme. A sme tu, Filip a Zuzka, ktorí sa vzdali všetkého na Slovensku, práce, bytu a vybrali sa do sveta. Cestovali sme aj predtým s našimi kamošmi, ale vždy to bolo iba na 3 - 4 týždne. Tentokrát sme sa vybrali s dvomi 65l a dvomi 30l ruksakmi do sveta na dlhšie, zatiaľ bez dátumu návratu.
Ak sa vám naše videá páčia, dajte nám prosím “like” a stlačte sledovať. Ďakujeme
One day we were just lying down in the bed and suddenly idea of long-term travel came out with. We started slowly to plan, but it became real after buying the first ticket to Iran in December 2017 and announcing it to our family. We called our around the world trip as OMG trip because at the begining it was still incredible: oh my God, we are really going. And here we are, Filip and Zuzka, who gave up of everything in Slovakia, work, flat and chose the world. We had already traveled with our friends, but it was only for 3-4 weeks. This time we hit the road with two 65l and two 30l backpacks for longer time, still without return date.

El Tatio Geysers of San Pedro de Atacama, Chile
Sometimes in order to experience something at the ideal time it involves waking up before the crack of dawn. With this in mind we booked at tour to El Tatio geysers just outside of San Pedro de Atacama, Chile. By the time our bus arrived, after several hours of driving off-road, we were treated to sunset, frigid temperatures and incredible geysers. After it warmed up a little bit we went swimming in the geysers and ate a delicious breakfast that included dulce de leche and chocolate pancakes, along with bread, cheese, ham, fruit, juice and coffee. As our tour continued we visited Machuca village where we viewed old churches and had an opportunity to sample alpaca meat skewers. Other stop included viewing areas for volcanoes, flamingos, lagoons and spotting other wildlife. Overall, it was a fantastic full-day tour and one we'd highly recommend to those visiting Northern Chile - especially if you're based in San Pedro de Atacama.
El Tatio Geysers of San Pedro de Atacama, Chile Travel Video Transcript:
Well, somebody looks all bundled up this morning. I know. Good morning from the chilly Atacama desert. Yesterday, we arrived in San Pedro de Atacama and we booked a tour to visit El Tatio geysers and we had to be up at four in the morning. It was a really early start and now it is probably around seven but it is still freezing but I'm told we're going to get chocolate pancakes plus we're going to see some pretty cool geysers so it should be a really fun outing. I think you're holding out for the pancakes. Pancakes.
So apparently this it he highest geyser field in the whole world. And according to my Lonely Planet there should be around 64 geysers although our guide did mention there is closer to 80. So who knows maybe there are new ones sprouting up.
So now we have twenty minutes stop in a village called Machuca. And there is a new part and an old part to the village. The older construction is over a thousand years old so we are going to go find some of those ruins. There is some churches out here as well. But apparently the civilization has been here for over eight thousand years so that is a long time. That's impressive.
Oh look at you. Look at you so sweet. So sweet. Look at those little eyes. Oh.
You're a flamingo today aren't you? I'm waddling like one too. Actually flamingos don't waddle. But the cherry on top of the cake here for this tour was getting to see flamingos. I was think you know what maybe we're not going to get to see them but right at the last stop yes we get to.
And we're now at our final stop of the tour. We're checking out this really cool gorge that is really green and yeah it has been an awesome tour. We saw some amazing landscapes, lots of wildlife. We ate some tasty pancakes. So yeah, if you're ever traveling around Atacama this is a really fun tour to take.
This is part of our Travel in Chile series. We're making a series of videos showcasing Chilean culture, Chilean arts, Chilean foods, Chilean religion, Chilean cuisine and Chilean people.

Chile/Calama SanPedro de Atacama Desert Part 7
Welcome to my travelchannel.On my channel you can find almost 1000 films of more than 70 countries.
See the playlist on my youtube channel.Enjoy!
The Atacama Desert (Spanish: Desierto de Atacama) is a plateau in South America, covering a 1,000-kilometre (600 mi) strip of land on the Pacific coast, west of the Andes mountains. It is the driest non-polar desert in the world.According to estimates the Atacama Desert proper occupies 105,000 square kilometres (41,000 sq mi),[ or 128,000 square kilometres (49,000 sq mi) if the barren lower slopes of the Andes are included. Most of the desert is composed of stony terrain, salt lakes (salares), sand, and felsic lava that flows towards the Andes.
The World Wide Fund for Nature defines the Atacama Desert ecoregion as extending from a few kilometers south of the Peru–Chile border to about 30° south latitude. The National Geographic Society considers the coastal area of southern Peru to be part of the Atacama Desert and also includes the deserts south of the Ica Region in Peru.Peru borders it on the north and the Chilean Matorral ecoregion borders it on the south. To the east lies the less arid Central Andean dry puna ecoregion. The drier portion of this ecoregion is located south of the Loa River between the parallel Sierra Vicuña Mackenna and Cordillera Domeyko. To the north of the Loa lies the Pampa del Tamarugal.
Although the almost total lack of precipitation is the most prominent characteristic of the Atacama Desert, exceptions may occur. In July 2011, an extreme Antarctic cold front broke through the rain shadow, bringing 80 cm (31 in) of snow to the plateau, stranding residents across the region, particularly in Bolivia, where many drivers became stuck in snow drifts and emergency crews became overtaxed with a large number of rescue calls.
This phenomenon is called the altiplano winter, which can produce a little rain and abundant thunderstorms, and occurs in January and February. In 2012, the altiplano winter brought floods to San Pedro de Atacama.
On March 25, 2015, heavy rainfall affected the southern part of the Atacama desert. Resulting floods triggered mudflows that affected the cities of Copiapo, Tierra Amarilla, Chile, Chanaral, and Diego de Almagro, causing the deaths of more than 100 people.

Driving from Antofagasta to the Paranal Observatory, the scenery was like nothing I've seen before. Mars-like: baren lifeless boulder-strewn plains. I decided to set up the GoPro on the dash of the truck and just let it run.
