I'm Jason, a full-time British Travel Vlogger and YouTuber who's been to 53 countries. I've been travelling around the world full-time since 2017. So far, my trips have taken me to Asia, Africa, Europe, the Middle East and the Americas.

I have travel series' from many of the world's best (and least) known destinations. I filmed the first vlogs on my channel in the summer of 2016 after spending a year living in China. A proper solo trip around Eastern Europe followed after graduating from University in the summer of 2017, taking me to Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, North Macedonia and Kosovo. This trip marked the start of my efforts to make a YouTube full-time job.

After that European trip I went heavily into exploring Asia, visiting India, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Pakistan, the Philippines, South Korea and Kazakhstan (seeing me cover a lot of Far East and Southeast Asia in particular).

I have also travelled to North Africa and the Middle East fairly extensively over the last five years, filming videos in Turkey, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Iraq, Jordan, Israel and Palestine.

To date, I have not yet been to Australasia or South America. Though I am hoping to visit the latter sometime in 2022, along with a first stop in the Caribbean.

I've travelled to North America just once as a YouTuber, visiting Mexico in 2021. Though I have been to both the USA and Canada, this was as a child on family holidays.

In 2022, I took my first trip to Sub Saharan Africa, visiting both Kenya and Tanzania.

I remember back packing with my boyfriend back in 1989 through East Africa and South Africa. I spent time in Tanzania and wow so different, it was a sleepy city back then and when we travelled over to Zanzibar it was definitely slow travel then as we all went the same mode of transport which was a Dhow boat. I loved my six months in Africa, great travel back then and everyone was super kind and friendly and no issues with any safety. Zanzibar def has changed as well as it was a small rural town with hardly tourists back then.

Thank you Jason! This is your strenght showing day to day environment, I started following you with Alger alleys video, despite I found it a little bit scary the maze of the narrow streets in the dark and the as you said "chaotic" ports, it definitly is a change of scenery from the tipical travel video, that shows only the nice "side", your style is more authentic and unique! Enjoy! 😍

Tanzania, there's where Freedie Mercury from Queen band was born at Stone Town, in 1946. One interesting Island. Thanks to share us.

Totally excited for this and upcoming videos of Zanzibar Jason. Somewhere I have wanted to travel to for many many years. Hopefully soon. Inshallah. Stay safe happy travels

I ❤️ just hearing, thinking and saying ZANZIBAR! It sounds so adventurous and romantic. Boarding the ferry was a definite ordeal. Jason, you handled it with aplomb, though. I think I would need a shot or two of Jack Daniels to steady my nerves. Loved the hotel. That sunken tub! That balcony! I rarely say this on my travels but that's a room I could spend a day in just bathing and being on the balcony with a good book and some tea and/or cocktail. Can't wait for more....

Jason thank you for your video! :) I appreciate all the effort you put into traveling and filming your adventures :) Thank you for filming, narrating, editing, adding music and on-screen titles and uploading! :) You always create top quality videos that I enjoy watching and learning from :) Hope you were able to rest up and enjoy exploring Stone Town! :) Amazing video Jason! :) Thank you! :)

[iamin]

Can't wait for your Zanzibar videos, your experiences are very unique and helps others fellow travellers. Your Turkey vlogs helped us immensely during our Turkish trip. Love & respect from Bangladesh

I hope you find Freddie Mercury's childhood home before the family returned to India. His mother in the UK still talks a lot about their time in Zanzibar and India.
