YouTube is a world-renowned platform for artists and makes for a very personal outlet for many. At the beginning of the summer, I was starting to get bored of the content I was watching until I stumbled upon a YouTuber by the name of Ben Brown, a UK travel vlogger & blogger. He has a vibrant and welcoming website, and his videos made me fall in love with vlogging. I started looking at other YouTube channels similar to his and really made connections with their goals and the passion that they had for traveling, charity, and being open-minded, genuine people.
I have always had the goal of becoming a photojournalist, traveling the world, and taking pictures. These videos gave me an inside look on what their daily lives consist of.
Here are a few of my favorite travel vlogging channels based on personality and genuine content:
Ben Brown
The genuineness that he possesses is truly inspiring, and his passion for photography and living a full life makes him a must watch for modern travel vlogging. Some of my favorite videos he has produced are the ones he made when he visited the Rocky Mountains in Alberta back in January (a little bias because of Banff ;))
Mike & Jay Explore
I love their videos because they are very polished and key in on the beauty of the cities/countries they visit. They do a wonderful job of capturing the places they see and continue to engage me in their weekly videos.
Hey Nadine
I have to say if you are looking for down-to-earth videos, Hey Nadine is the channel you should watch. Although not all of her videos are travel vlogs, she does incorporate the more typical YouTuber-esque vibes with some challenges and tags thrown in. These videos may not be my cup of tea, but her travel videos prove to me that she deserves my subscription.
If you get the chance, these channels are worth your time and might put that travel bug at ease… for now.
