I don't really want to do that, so please be respectful and think before you comment. Thanks in advance I do everything myself (planning, filming, editing and uploading) alongside a day job. Therefore, videos may not be every week. I am also not an expert in anything that I cover on this channel. FAQs: Where are you from? I am from Teesside in the North East of England, having previously lived in Norwich. I am currently back in the North East What do you use? I use the DJI Osmo Pocket 3, the DJI Action 6 and the DJI Mic 2. For editing, I've opted for iMovie (since it was built in), and I use Epidemic Sound and YouTube's Audio Library for any music. Thumbnails are designed on Canva Do you pay for your own travel? Yes, I do. Due to this, travel videos will be few and far between due having a day job and the cost of living these days. I don't drive, and train travel isn't cheap. I don't use third party apps to buy my tickets (I always book via the Train Operating Company's website) though I do split my tickets where possible to try and keep the cost down How can I support your channel? There are a few ways. There's the free way: by watching my videos and subscribing (and ringing the bell). This massively helps the YouTube algorithm. On top of that, there's also the paid way: through donating to my PayPal.Me link to help fund future travel videos Why is there a delay between videos (including trips and videos if travel related)? As mentioned above, I do everything myself, and I also work alongside doing YouTube. That means I don't always have time to film and edit videos to be able to keep to a schedule. This is something I would (hopefully!) like to do in the future. I try to film multiple videos from one trip where I can to ensure some sort of schedule. In between trips, though, this isn't guarenteed Can I contact you? Sadly, no. I don't want to run the risk of missing messages in amongst any spam that may come through. Sorry! Why the annoying ads? I can understand how annoying ads can be (as a viewer, they annoy me as well) though they help me make money Do you accept any sponsorships? Sorry, no. I don't like videos that have sponsorships midway through as I find it disrupts the flow. I also don't want to be that YouTuber who does the same
