Everyone has seen the beautiful Lantern Festival (Yee Peng) celebrated in Chiang Mai, but little know the fact that it is actually a Chinese festival. On the same night, the Thai festival of Loy Krathong is celebrated, so we decided to celebrate the local way. We made Krathongs with kids at a school where our friend Paddy works to release in the river, but first we stumbled upon the most beautiful monk ceremony we've ever seen!

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 YouTube 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. :)
