I'm Jason, a full-time British Travel Vlogger and TH-camr who's been to 55 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 TH-cam 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 TH-camr, visiting Mexico in 2021. Though I have been to both the USA and Canada, this was as a child on family holidays.
So far in 2022, I've taken my first trip to Sub Saharan Africa, visiting both Kenya and Tanzania, before heading to the Middle East, stopping in Dubai and Lebanon. Europe followed, covering both the Greek and Turkish sides of Cyprus, and afterwards going back to Italy for the second time to cover Milan and Sicily. In the summer I visited the Caribbean for the first time, spending over a month in the Dominican Republic, before stopping in Belgium on my way home.
After shooting some videos in Taiwan, I made my way to the Philippines for the second time.

I commend his researches about Davao City. The type of vlogger must be admired.
Hi Hason, I'm your new subscriber! Thank for promoting the Phils., although its not as beautiful of the country you visited, but at least you can roam around with peace & secured. God Bless you & your family. Take care!
Nice to see you again Jason!!! Enjoy Mindanao!!!
Yes Davao City is one of the largest city in Mindanao very clean city 🏙 ❤
DAVAO Is the largest City in Mindanao followed by Zambonga and Cagayan De Oro Mindanao Cities might be quite lagging Behind in developments than LUZON and VISAYAS Cities yet, they are on its way to start developing. numerous condomium are rising in DAVAO and CDO.

Congratulations to you for this remarkable video about Davao City, The Philippines taking a great walks across the city @ the Market in November of 2022❤❤❤
Good to see you visited Phillipines! Excellent quality video!
Glad you enjoyed it.
Hey Jason, Welcome to Davao city! I came across your channel from your Tanzania vlog ( my mother land) and now your in Davao where I live 😮 I enjoy watching your videos ❤
Glad to hear your eye is ok and the video ther in Davou was great. Showed the conditions when raining. Thanks and cheers to you Jason.
Thanks Daniel
Very interesting and informative. Loved the market, the food and the history lesson.
Thanks Patricia!
Thank you for visiting our beloved Davao City
davao is where I am from.glad you were able to see and visit Davao City.
This video was CLASSIC. Great information about Davao.
Welcome to Philippines Jason. Enjoy!
Thank you Jason for visiting my country Philippines .
keep it up jason always with some great content bro
Welcome home Jason. I hope to see you around..
Thank you for appreciating our beloved place
Good to see you back in the Philippines.
Beautiful sharing 💕💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝
Hi the most remembered to me from your travel vlog is when you go to Saudi Arabia . Thanks for coming in the Philippines. Stay safe and God bless.
You're back!!!
Wow!ang linis tlaga ng DAVAO❤️
I’m from davao and watching this video just makes me miss my hometown so much! 😔😔 i live at bonifacio so close to where you were staying 😊
Jason I have missed you very much!!!...I'm so glad to view your content once more, and that you're better from the problematic eyelash. Be safe👊
Thank you Aubrey, always nice to see you pop up in the comments over the years. Appreciate your words!
I'm here after watching all your Saudi videos in one sitting! Thinking of going to Saudi as a non Muslim tourist in the next couple of months! Have to say though Davao looked very run down and shabby! Will watch your other videos from the Phillipines with interest. Keep up your great work Jason!
Thank you for the video, I'm glad to see you back!! Enjoy Mindanao! See if you can try palapa while you're there. it's a spicy condiment that might as well be called 'Filipino kimchi'. it's a speciality of Muslim Filipinos and has become quite famous here. It's fully vegan, and it's delicious if you love a bit of spice.
If you're into cultural stuff too too, you might be able to catch some kulintang music there, it's the centuries old traditional lively gong-chime ensemble music of the Southern Philippines, that predates the Spanish colonial period by many centuries. it's one of the signature cultural icons of Mindanao and one for the prides of the Philippines.
Never been to Samal there so looking forward to what you make of it! 😊
I consider atsara as the filipino kimchi haha
Thank you for vlogging our City of Davao.So happy to watch this video.I been 9 yrs working here in Malaysia.I really miss my city Philippines 🇵🇭
Great place yes
Eating Durian in the street/outside will not offend anyone especially in Davao, they are used to people eating that there..But it was a good idea not eating Durian with Hot Chocolate coz I dont think it’s a good combination might give you a tummy ache and a lot of trips to the loo😅 Locals in Davao eat it with Coke/Pepsi on the side, well that’s what my friends told me when I went there😬
ty for for your visiting Davao City sir and God Bless you 😊❤️
Thank you, Jason, I am heading there in March
tweet: I see that you are now among a handful of repeat visitors in the Philippines' Islands, Jason B. Enjoy strolling memory lane in and around Islands. It's becoming wintry cold now in the west side of the River -- wish we had the warmer climate where you are now in Davao City. We've seen some of your brethren perusing thru Makati City recently. Welcome Back! be blessed. nov2022.
Wow thanks for visiting my hometown 🙏
love your vidoes man !
I love you for this OMGGGG new fan hereee!!!
So brave of you to try the local chocolate drink and durian :) Both are known to cause a spike in blood pressure. :D That's why we avoid having both foods at the same time :D We usually make the local cocoa into a chocolate porridge called champurrado :) Soooo good!
High Blood pressure has nothing to do with eating durian and chocolate.
But increase in heart beat due to caffeine in chokolate.
So true every Drink i try gives me temporary Diabetes lolol Buko and this red Drink , Mango etc
tablea drink is... sa tinood lang kay good para sa high blood. becoz Cocoa is rich in FLAVONOLS... Durian on the other hand will raise heart rate and will give body heat.
Great place
Welcome to our hometown sir. Enjoy
I miss my hometown Davao City! Thanks for visiting Davao City and enjoy what it offers from highlands to Beaches!
You should visit Obrero Davao sometime soon. We quite consider it as coffee shop capital of Davao 😂 many cute coffee shops around that place in downtown 😊☕️
Wow your in Davao City bro, great one brother. It's near hear in Tagum City
Welcone back sir jason.I was so surprised you come back.Nice to watch you again here in the Philippines.GOD bless and take care
I didn’t expect to be back so soon either, but here I am
Jason Billam, I hope you explore Davao!
One more interesting video thanks jason
Glad to hear it!
That was a really commendable thing to consider that the people around you might have been bothered by the smell. Big ups for that. Also you'll see a no durian sign inside hotels. At first I thought it's cuz of the spikes on the skin that it could be used as a weapon but it turns out it's bcuz of the smell haha
Welcome back to the Philippines 🌱🇵🇭
thanx for visiting davao city philippines sir keep safe

Oh my gosh. I dreamed of you someday you will visit Davao. Finally. 😁 Welcome to Davao City!

Glad u liked DURIAN, me tooo...i video some durian eating in PH too
It been about 5 years since I was last in Davao City. My wife was born in raised in Santa Cruiz which is in Davao Del Sur. We are going to try going back this year.
I was born here , cool vid thank you
Glad you liked it!
Durian is my Fav. and Balut. The food I will miss about in the Philippines is Davao. Have you already visited the park, like Philippine Eagle and Crocodile Park? My husband likes in Philippine Eagle, he really amazed a lot of eagles.
Wow. Durian is the king of fruits
And my favorite
So clean
Currently Davao City- the Safest City in the Philippines- 2nd safest City in Southeast Asia- 20th in the whole of Asia.
🎉LIFE IS HERE🎉
heyyy.. for sure Durian's smell wouldn't annoy us. hehehe btw, welcome to Davao City!!!
What an informative vlog, nice one Jason👏
Nice, will try durian.
Thanks you so much for this remarkable video about Davao City, The Philippines @ the Market trying to tastes the fruit calls Duraine November of 2022❤❤❤
It is the *largest city in the Philippines in terms of land area and welcome to Davao city! Life is here
very good video, capturing the feeling and experience in the market in Davao. You should have waited out the busy place in the evening market for the grilled meats! I have been to PI 3x, never tried durian nor balut, power on mate. FYI the island is called KAH MEE GIN with a hard G
Thanks for that!
I have never tried durian before, the smell is quite strong. Maybe time to give it a go! I think food from the Phillipines is often one of the unrated Asian cuisines. It’s an amazing mixture of influences. Davao looks like it has a big small town vibe. Looks like the climate is quite tropical? Thanks for the video great to have you back on here
Yeah it’s quite a tropical climate, you’ll see that on the next video from Samal Island.
many foods smells, but tastes good (depending on your taste bud). I grew up around the Davao area, so I am very accustomed to durian.. and for me, like all foods that has scent, it just makes me want to eat them, sometimes you can tell from the smell being tasty or not (the durian) that is. There's only a handful of variety that these days, I'm willing to eat (as they are the best varieties).
also don't eat it inside hotels! The scent will last a whole week, renders the room unrentable. A lot of hotels bans this fruit in their establishment.
Typhoon free...

Nice informative video mindenaoa not many videos are filmed there cause rep of being more dangerous what do you think?
My gf and I are going back to visit her family in a few days!
Hi, Jason. Good video, authentic, and I enjoyed the intimacy and solitude of your walk through Davao. Tell me, if you don't mind me asking, are you deriving a good income from the creation of your videos? (I'm a 1st-timer, busy doing research in that direction). Thanks again
thank you for vesiting my city of davao sir, sana nakita kita😀
