For these two young kids, traveling is more important than the short-term euphoria drinking and nightlife could bring. Nathan Basista and Jess Roberts decided during one fateful day they would see the rest the Earth has to offer by avoiding additional expenses and saving up for their grand vacation spanning 12 countries in a year.

According to Metro UK, the couple decided to save "every single moment during college" and even "worked several jobs" to accelerate their vacation savings fund. Drinking and partying were immediately out of the question. Their thrifty lifestyle extended even during their vacations; Jess Roberts said they "camped and cooked at home" to save their vacation funds for better experiences than "pricey hotel rooms."

The couple first began their first year of journeying in the Western Hemisphere including the traditional road-trip across the United States and two weeks in Iceland. A journey to the arctic had brought the two to see the Aurora Borealis or Northern Lights, which Roberts pointed out as her favorite highlight of their one-year journey and described it as "an otherworldly experience."

The two are on their way to head to explore Asia and intend to begin their trip on February in Hong Kong. Metro did not indicate the itinerary of the couple. Their second year of travel would "push our limits and bring us to exotic places far from home," according to Jess.

Another couple famous from a reality show had given up more than their drinking and partying but their entire jobs as CEOs of a modeling agency and rubbing elbows with famous people in Hollywood. Bessie Bardot and Geoff Baker -- according to LA Weekly -- had been journeying the entirety of Australia in their van where they raised their daughter in travel.

According to the couple, when they "opened themselves up to the universe," they found "congruence" and possibly a form of pronoia -- a positive feeling that the universe is conspiring to help you/the negation of paranoia. The once-famous and rich couple had found traveling to have soothed their souls aching for satisfaction and achievement in their once well-provided but sordid lifestyle.
