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 KZread 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. :)

My Vietnamese friends gave me an insight based on their perspective and honestly, this was the same way with the Filipino-American War because I learned Philippine history in the Philippines then moved to the U.S. at 12 years old and things were completely different when I learned it again. I'm glad you guys are open minded!

Right from Nate’s coffee wake up call for Kara 💝 to Kara guiding Nate through the traffic as he filmed 🥰 to your different perspectives on the market 😅 down to date night in such a unique place ☺️ But you know what truly makes you guys so lovely, is that you both take time to really listen to people, even in the way you took in what you saw at the museum and the way you felt for the people, the way you felt for the tour guide, the way you felt what the owner or Noir was saying, the way you felt for the staff at Noir...you guys go above and beyond what they say...you actually listen to them above all the words in your conversation...I hope I’m making sense...and I think that’s what makes you one of my favourite couples on YT 🤗🤗 Love you both!

    I can understand getting the perspective from the museum there. The best way to learn about it though is to talk to those who lived it. My other half is a Vietnam Vet. Unfortunately, he has to live with it and the aftermath for life. It was hard for them there and hard when they came home. What was done to both sides, both by the other and their own, was criminal. It is part of history that should never be forgotten. And to this day, it is still labeled a "Police Action" instead of the war that it was.

    We have a restaurant similar to that in Calgary, called Dark Table. The only difference is you could order what you liked off a menu that you viewed before you went into the completely darkened restaurant. I remember feeling quite nervous and out of sorts for the first several minutes without the use of my sight. I also realized how much of my communication with others is based on visual cues that I no longer had available to me. The employees were all visually impaired and were obviously very comfortable navigating the room without the use of sight - a very interesting turning of the tables and opportunity to appreciate how the world feels from a different perspective. Love that this is a concept available to people around the world!

    We have a Noir here in Toronto, Canada too just like that where all the staff is blind and you eat in the dark. But we also have another unique place here called Signs where all the staff is deaf and you cant talk to order anything you have to use soley sign language... which they have visually explained to you one the menu for each food and you have to try to sign it to the waiter to order. Its such an experience.

    I think one privilege we Americans have is to be removed from the terrors others went through so we could have our freedoms. Traveling opens your eyes to the cost of living the way we do. Because in reality it could always be so much worse. Awesome video per usual guys. I love museums so I enjoyed that you guys incorporated that into the video.

    Ive lived in Saigon many years and my Dad was in the 1st Cav in 1969-70 based in Tay Ninh as a Sergeant. He has been in that museum and most of it is Vietnamese propaganda and a lot of it never happened. So don't feel that bad.

    Definitely a history lesson is needed. It's sad that Nate felt "shame". Nate should take what he saw at that museum with some skepticism and realize that much of it will be anti-American propaganda. It worked. Nate felt shame of being an American while visiting the museum. There is much more to learn about the Viet Nam conflict. War is horrible for all sides involved. The South Vietnamese people suffered horrific atrocities by the North Vietnamese. Americans helped many of them escape the horror of war. Before being ashamed Nate, find out what brought the war on. Vietnam veterans have been vilified and many of them never came back to their families. That is the real shame for an American to feel.
