People are hating way too much. Public speaking is hard and yeah she could use some practice but I commend her nevertheless for being brave enough to do this.
In my 30s, currently in the process of changing careers to adventure/outdoor/wildlife photography. I want to live in my truck camper, with my cats, travelling around Canada taking photos. I feel ripped off being born a human away from what’s natural. This would he a happy medium to be able to half escape the daily grind and expectations of society. I truly feel alive when I am out in the elements, and isn’t that what life is about? Living?
Omg Becca, thank you for sharing your experience and hearing how you panicked several times is something I can definitely relate to! It makes me feel better to know that it will all be ok in the end. Great work and looking forward to seeing more!
Great overall story. I think any landscape/travel/adventure photographer dreams of traveling as much as possible and photograph but doesn't understands what this means. I have to admit I'm also in this category :)
that was very inspiring, I always wanted to go on adventures like that, all the pictures were beautiful with an amazing story behind each one, now I truly believe a picture is worth a thousand words😃
This a cute video, people who work in these areas all the time and handle this for months if not years just deal with these situations. I have done it for years as a northern engineer and now a commercial pilot. Its not hard if you don't complain about you're experience and try to love life up north. This is cute though
How I wish to be in somewhere in touch with nature and wildlife and taking pictures to animals and beautiful nature like I wish to get lost there and unit with nature 🥺❤️
She's a delightful young lady & what she is talking about is interesting, but the VERY LOUD "swallow / lip smack" sounds really take away from the presentation, it's incredibly distracting & kinda icky-sounding. I thought it was just me but someone else mentioned it below. It's not entirely her fault, either, I mean everyone has to swallow, but whoever prepped her for the stage, most notably the placement of her microphone should be FIRED. Did nobody do a sound check or rehearsal with her to make sure everything sounded okay?? I'm really sorry to have to say it, but I am really enjoying these Nat Geo Lives so far, but the others all have those clip to the ear mikes, so you don't hear anything but the sound coming directly out of the mouth. It's really difficult to listen to. :(
I loved your stories and photos. they provided really good I sight what it's like to be a Nat Geo photographer. I've always been I treated in becoming one once I got I to photography. also,. I actually didn't notice anything with gulping or swallowing until I read the comments :)
great talk and motivate to learn forward expedition trip on backpack. What a girl that she can do 110L backpack. Super, I guess now she can pack more than that.
Thanks for sharing your story ma'am ! To be honest, I thought this was going to be more on the topic of what it was like working for Nat Geo; but stayed because you were enjoyable to listen to ! PS: I dont think I would be able to tell you apart from my wife if you two were shopping at a local grocery store. LoL
i wish i would get chance at being just like her this is my dream but how my economic and social condition is i think it is very unlikely i will get there

Really wish I could do something like this with Nat Geo. Going to Chile, Peru, and Ecuador this summer for a backpacking trip and photography.
Caleb Price work hard for it then, this what I will do

Yes❤ agreed
This Ted talk was my beginning. I emailed Becca after this in 2018 and she guided me much more than anyone has ever done.
can you guide me???
Salute to Ms. Skinner for chasing her dreams and having a career that she is passionate about.

I cannot think of a better way to spend your life 😊

WoW! You're incredible and deserve nothing but the best - a True inspiration to everyone - especially myself! Absolutely loved your story!

That was a really great presentation. Thanks a lot 👍 This year we do 180 summits above 2000m within 60 days. But that won't be the last project 😎
Well done….keep doing what you’re doing…thank you
Interesting video
I like travelling
Ok
Elkhorn fly rod!
That’s my dream job.
i wish i would get chance at being just like her this is my dream but how my economic and social condition is i think it is very unlikely i will get there
I would love to listen to it, but I can't because of the lip smacking. It's way too annoying.
xoxoxo XO
xoxoxo ASMR 😏
I want to do the same
Nando Vila ye.. me to :)
My dream job. ;)
SG
110 liters.
Good pictures but the presentation is a bit boring
how travelling is an profession
it could have been a nice subject but her continuos swallowing and lips noises really made me stop. :-/
I'm sure you have some lovely habits.
its quite annoying T_T
This is my dream but i dont know how to be like that :(
👏👏👏
Lip smacking.... TTSSS! makes it hard to watch. Stopped before 5 minutes
and the constant swallowing noise she makes. Really great photographer but my nerves couldnt hold it through the video
Michael Kibler me too. I love her job, but I couldn’t keep going.
this is because of the microport, you guys are nuts....
Great speech and may I know your Instagram profile name
Love her photos. She’s a great photographer. Terrible terrible speaker.
This clip is a misophonia suffer's nightmare. WARNING.
Annoying gulping sound. I'm sorry, couldn't concentrated. Nice speech anyway
*SWALLOW*
Where's the internship for this!
Who came here from the meme
Get a fucking water bottle
I'm sure she keeps her camera set on Automatic or Program Mode.
Smacks her lips waaaaaay too much. Needs more practice at public speaking
can't finish watching it because of that...it is so disturbing from what would be otherwise nice presentation
Yeah that sound very disturbing; however that amazing expedition, most of us can't make it!
.
Awesome but please don’t swallow so much xD
If I had a quarter every time she smacked her lips I would be RICH AF
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
'hey everyone, listen to how much better my life is than yours' Is basically all I got from this.
I am doing exactly the same as her. Difference is I pay out of my own pockets.
