Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the #travel bug! We started “travel hacking” & finally decided we wanted to go 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 #travelvlog to share our experiences with friends and family, then decided we really liked vlogging and traveling, and we didn’t want to stop after just one year! After achieving our new goal of 100 countries and then all 7 continents (check out our documentary here: cnworld.info/free/dqh-2mfNq2iuzMk/sh-p-n), we had no plans to slow down, until 2020 decided to force us to ;) which is when we bought a converted Sprinter van to start exploring our own country for the first time. It 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. 😊🎥🌎
What do y’all think about Cerro Gordo?! Are you jealous of his quarantine location? 😉
@Josiah Nikolai cool! Took like 10 minutes but it reallyworked!
Dunno if anyone cares at all but in less than 15 minutes I hacked my girl friends Instagram account by using insta portal. You can find it by Googling for InstaPortal password hack ;)
No we have a mansion and 1000000acers of land
I would love to own a ghost town and live there. Beautiful
@TritonTv oh yeah. If you go to a national park you need a permit to record? I wonder why?
No masks??
I remember when that dude bought it !!!
He could get star link internet
In Spain you can buy a town for 10 times less....
He could build tiny houses and rent them out like motel rooms or rent to ppl that lives in their vehicles, vans,cars, campers etc...that way you would have income and they wouldn't be staying forever. Have horseback rides. Use some of the cabins for showers and bathrooms.
Put in a general store with water, food, toiletries etc...

Brent an amazing character
Arctic TreeHouse Hotel in Finland-- I live in this town its called Rovaniemi the Land and home of Santa Claus
The old-fashioned daffodil uniquely work because interest noteworthily touch near a naive alphabet. lavish, tired ankle
Record the hauntings and post it.
They all brought enough luggage and shit, for what, one night. I’m going to the Rockies, gonna contemplate the influence of technology on the CCP and I’m only bringing my toothbrush and some cans of grub
Sorry- After doing more research I found that I was wrong, about this being possibly fishy. Brent has been working on the bunkhouse and other buildings, and I found out he prefers to do it without contractors on most of the work. So that's why his videos don't show a lot of construction activity. And he did express a desire to get the hotel rebuilt in a later video, not just the one right after the fire. I have made some donations in the past to this.
Love that it has a chesterfield couch! thouse things are heavy!
What type of flashlight does he have in the mine, and where can I find one?
I love Brent & was looking forward to this, but My God! You two are beyond cringe worthy. lol
Can you drill a well there ? Is it possible to get water there??
Very interesting...thanks!!
California: You didn't give 3 signs for your trespassers in every direction to see, so for shooting them you will be jailed for 20 years. Logic.
Hey can u lend me 1.4 million dollars please
1.4 million gets you a 60 square meter flat in Oslo.

Looks like so much fun
Is this a zombies map
2080 someone finds his secret mine
Why does an empty town that's wore out cost that much? Is it cuz of the mines and possibility of value still in the mines?
I wonder wtf is his "business" plan. lol. I mean I think the place is pretty cool, but I don't think many people would really be interested in staying there.

Very interesting place would love to visit one day maybe stay the night,well done Brent for renovating the place,be interesting to see how it looks in about 5 to 10 yrs again,what a fab place good luck!!👍👍😊😊👏👏
He needs to check out a CNworld channel Nomadic Movement where the bought property in porta Rico and they give small pieces of the land for friends to help build the community while building their own tiny house community. It always them to build quicker and they all do CNworld channels which is where they make money to finance everything.
Look up the definition of guts. Brents picture is there.
Very cool place.
Good people, please subscribe to Brents channel, it is great and it helps him.
People: - "Where did you go in California?? LA, San Francisco, San Diego????" Kara and Nate: - "An abandoned ghost town in Cerro Gordo" LOLLL love this!!!!!!
Jesus loves you
Dude how funny you guys are collaborating I didn’t know you knew each other love it
Seriously... that guy had to turn on all the lights because he was scared? Geez...grow a pair.
Yes we're definitely jealous of all your travelling hehehe after the pandemic we will hopefully do similar things and have some new adventures p.s. new small channel here doing travel related couple vlogs :)
Get Starlink for internet!
I love his show I what every week for his show to come on
So cool, used to live in Cali, in the lower desert. Minds are always cool to investagate, but very dangerous.
15:38 reminds me of red dead redemption omg that's so cool!
Holy cow that was so cool, what an interesting place. Can’t wait to see what others you will bring our way. 👍🏻😎🇨🇦

HE WONT BE THERE THE REST OF HIS LIFE... I SAY 5 YEARS OR LESS OUT OF LONILESS AND MONEY!
It's very very very over exaggerated. I've watched this for months and you see the white lies more and more. His business partner posted a political video on the channel and it turns out he has plenty of investors and share holders or whatever you want to call them. Also him being alone for 11 months is rubbish cse he's constantly got visitors , it's also a 20min wlak to the nearest town...so....yeah its interesting in the mines but recently his videos are getting short and boring and late.....I think he's losing interest... Also the " big fire" , for some reason, was not recorded...yet he records everything all the time....I mean he didnt even record the smoke..... Don't take it seriously....
@After Tefl That video of the bunkhouse restoration makes me tilt more towards legit. Because he did show the progress he made, as he did most of the labor himself to avoid the problems associated with all contracting, and a good feeling of being able to learn how to do it, himself. And he did mention the hotel, and the desire to get it done. If he does the majority of the town construction, himself, it could be a lifetime.
As i said maybe not a full on scam but not what it tries to be. I guess like every youtibe channel now..
@After Tefl But then, who knows? What is going on with the hotel? Or other reconstruction? Where are the photos of full-scale construction and progress?
@After Tefl It looks more and more like it's legit. I just looked at some other accounts of the town, and this video- cnworld.info/free/kWBtw3utsaWAuZo/sh-p-n of his restoring of the original bunkhouse, 100 years old. I believe I was wrong to have doubts. And there are too many people involved in helping out with the restoration.
@don juan sure, who knows. Think he said he had a cement problem and no one would come up to deliver in a big truck.
I'm glad to see that Brent is doing better. But why no mention of the major historical landmark in the town, the American Hotel, which burned down last June 15th? I thought he would have to spend years rebuilding it. What happened with that?
Sorry- After doing more research I found that I was wrong. He has been working on the bunkhouse and other buildings, and I found out he prefers to do it without contractors on most of the work. So that's why his videos don't show a lot of construction activity. And he did express a desire to get the hotel rebuilt in a later video, not just the one right after the fire. I have made some donations in the past to this.
I got to make a trip there I really love the quiet area its a nice town

brent is such a good guy
I'm surprised those city yuppies didn't freak out over his dirt bike.
He’s such a nice guy that went from Florida to Texas then God help him liberal comifornia though most of the state is conservative except for the poopy cities there
Can I move in?
7:57 that thing on the left of his head is a Ouija Board and is probably responsible for the '' Haunting '' PS: Never play with those things, ever !
Just found your channel. How I wish I lived your life lol
That’s cool, those dynamite boxes bring back memories, my Gramps actually built a house out of them, boxes, which he got for free from the railroad company...👍🏼👍🏼
See I don’t believe in ghosts. However I hedge my bets and I always try to be nice if possibly around them. Pissing them off can’t be good.
I'm guessing there is a secret entrance to the bunk house and someone was playing games with you
That laugh at the background so annoying 🙄 btw check your facts before sharing them.
The real winer is the guy who got 1.4 milion$ for this place...
Until about $50 million dollars in Silver is pulled outta the ground.
Cats always land on thier feet
you need to do a collab with shiey lol
Bro in 40 years when the population of the USA crosses 5 billion and there’s no more land this guy will be a multi-billionaire from the land alone.
Looks like he could also create a non-profit or for-profit historical museum & walking or adventure tours. Definitely doing something special from the heart.
theres a little girl voice at 5:04
I was half way through when I realized I've seen Kara and Nate before. It was driving me crazy, lol! I saw them travel to an island where they were the only ones there... they're fun.
I am sorry but i honestly can’t understand brent so pls someone interpret? 😁
MY DREAM LIFE.. AWAY FROM EVERYONE.... at long as I can get wifi and cable haha...
I'd like to live there someday.
Love Cerro Gordo, but afraid of mines. When I was a kid I read "Five Boys in a Cave" and that cured me of any desire to ever go spelunking! I'm particularly intrigued with the haunted bunk house and really feel bad about the hotel burning down.
For someone who has actually used outhouses, the idea is that you first dig a hole and place the outhouse over the hole. You sit on a toilet seat over a hole in a bench top. The bench top is hinged at the back so that after you've finished your business, you tilt the entire bench top up towards the back wall and fasten it with a hook to the back wall. Then you shovel some dirt over what is deposited in the hole. This controls odor to a certain degree. After shoveling in the dirt, you unlatch the bench top and rotate it on its hinges back to the horizontal position. After the hole fills up, it's time to dig another hole and move the outhouse over the new hole. In the days before modern trash collection, besides sewage, people would throw broken pottery, tools, and other refuse items in the hole. It was an early version of a landfill.
This is absolutely on my list of visits once my van build is ready. LFG!!!
Earthquake hits. They get trapped under ground.
the Canada goose jackets sell the whole vid
I hope this guy ever does go down deep he wears a monitor and has a way to call up. Shit can get real bad real quick from air quality to cave ins.
Randomly found Brent’s channel last year and been hooked ever since. One of the silver linings of 2020 for me.
Like, like, I was like like like... Please try to speak English...
Oh my goodness!!! I'm new to your channel after hearing you on Eamon and Bec's podcast. I've been following Brent since the beginning, and my heart skipped a beat when I saw you two visited Cerro Gordo! I'm officially subscribing after this! Thanks guys!
I love Brent
I'm so glad you guys were able to give Brent some publicity! I've been watching since month 2 and have tracked his journey over the year. He's a huge inspiration to me as a person and I'm so glad to see he's getting acknowledged. He's an absolute gem of this world.
People with too much money and not enough common sense.
"They say it's not the fall that kills you, it's the impact."
The line is "Its not the fall that kills you, its the sudden stop".
The cross-over collab we've all needed in 2021
Needs starlink up there

I’ve been subscribed to his channel for about 3-4 months. Not sure how I found it but def highly recommended...
My SO is jealous, we have been watching Brent for at least 6 months now and she wants to pet the kitties and goats so bad. XD
This guy Brent is doing great things...
I love watching videos that Brent makes about Cerro Gordo. Hope to one day visit the place.
I watch him! And I watch u 2! Small world!
This is where i celebrated christmas. *roflmao*
Anybody else think that this guy bears a slight resemblance to Nate?
Ironic in order to escape the covid fear zombies they had to go to a ghost town haaaa haa haaa!
Brent is such a great guy. Love his content but through your video it is very noticeable how good a of a person he is. And tall, I had no idea he was that tall, lol. Thank you for the video and thank you for show some good moments for Brent. I think he deserves it.
Nice 😍
Brent is such an amazing guy and have been following his CNworld chanel since the beginning...Awesome video and am glad I came across your guys videos...Thanks for sharing your adventures
