I think people watch your videos because you are so refreshing. You don't make it all about yourselves and you provide useful information. You are both a pleasure to watch. I feel like I know you....
I agree and I understand what you mean when you write that you feel like you know them. Out of all the Vloggers, Carol and Chris are the ones I would feel most comfortable to approach if I saw them randomly while traveling. And of course I would have to ask Carol to show me her hair products.😊
It’s awesome that you’re honest about how you monetize your TH-cam videos.. I will now try to watch at least 30 seconds of ads here and there just to help out lol.
Not a lot of creators are as transparent as this, but its awesome to see how other creators monetize. No one ever knows how much each creator makes just cause everyone's audience is so different
I have stopped skipping adds for you guys. Keep doing what you are doing. Very informative and entertaining. You both have very friendly personalities and that is part of your appeal.
Filipino audience are everywhere, since there's too many Overseas Filipino workers. I'm a Filipino watching from Dubai UAE.❤ Been watching you guys since you got stranded in Palawan Ph
Thank you for your honest responses and objectivity in all your videos. They are really refreshing and make both of you truly interesting to watch and follow.
As you get new subscribers, many of them like me will go back and binge watch your old videos, to get your back story. So I can see the old ones getting views now and then.
USA subscriber here. Oddly enough I started following you regularly after your recent Nepal travels. I’m glad you continue to follow your hearts and not chase the ad revenue.
I enjoy your video so much I will stop skipping the ads as well actually they're kind of entertaining but information is good to know thank you for being so accurate and information in this video from both of you guys I love that you're honest and I enjoy everything that you guys film thank you Kathy from West Virginia
Watching you guys from Malaysia 👋 We binge watch your videos every few months to catch up on all your travels. I love how you guys sometimes visit places that are not so much on the "You Tube Trail and you have a slower pace of travel which means you can show more about the places you visit. I also promise not to skip ads anymore 👌 Wishing you both all the best 🌻 P.S. If a viewer watches your videos through a VPN, does mean that TH-cam ads pay out based on the country it seems the viewer is in due to VPN?
Hi there!!! In the middle of watching this video now. Thank you for sharing your experience and information about channel. We are been watching you for a few years, and thanks to you guys, we visited places and made our vacations unforgettable. It’s all because of your videos. We write down names, areas, countries. Pretty much following your foot steps. It’s soooo helpful !!🙏🏻 You are right. The shorts. Well, they are annoying. They do make people dumb as well, but that’s another subject. Do not give up on this one!!!!! There is lots of competition, that is true, but the way you got it- no one else we saw did it better. Honestly. Keep doing what you doing, don’t worry about competition. Show off, slang, manners- all makes a difference to watched. Hey) we gonna watch all the adds from now own 😉😉😉😉
@@JumpingPlaces❤ We went to all the beaches you guys visited in Dominican Republic. We been going to resorts for years. After watching you we planned a trip. The best of our lives)) The beaches, hidden places, it was a paradise. Next on the list is Philippines It will be a very long trip from US, but it’s worth it.))
I started watching your videos during pandemic until now I still keep doing it! The reason why I like your videos cos of your travel branding which is laid back a.k.a a local way wherever your country in.Good luck to both of you 🥰
My wife and I love all your videos, your videos are always interesting and informative without the sensationalism that a lot of others have. Your always kind and considerate to people you encounter. Must be so much work to make these videos, you deserve more. Now that we know we will watch the ads longer to help out. We are loyal viewers and fans from Canada. Keep em coming. Be safe. God bless
I discovered you guys a few years back researching for a trip to Mexico and I think I’ve watched every video you’ve put out since! Your videography is really top notch. You give unbiased information about your destinations, no silly stuff and you’re both so kind and respectful. It’s really refreshing. I admire your integrity and your love of travel shines in every episode. Keep up the good work!
We've watched you from the UK for many years, thanks for explaining about skipping the ads, will watch some of your playlists and let the ads run through. Your content and delivery style is brilliant, keep up the good work!
My wife and I have enjoyed being with you on your journey for a long time, now. We found you while we were preparing for a trip to the Philippines last year. It is always interesting to see where you are headed to next. It is also impressive to see how you have been able to finance your passion. We are so happy for you. As fellow world travelers, though, we are always curious about how you are able to manage bringing your clothes and equipment with you. Also, the other daily issues like mail, health care, etc. For me, personally, it would be interesting to know more about how you manage some of these areas of full-time travel. Blessings to the two of you and continued safe travels. As long as you are willing to share; we will be with you.
This video just validates how honest you both are , not everyone on TH-cam is this honest . I know some travel vloggers who are clearly adding lots of semi nude footage of themselves in their vlogs to attract more views , which is disgusting and clearly just lining their pockets. Your vlogs are informative about the places you visit which are interesting and helpful and above all honest . Great work !! 👏
Very informative video, guys. Thanks for keeping it real. As one being new (though not young) to serious travel vlogging, I learn a lot from you. You have my subscription.
I look at you guys and Coco Channel's line "Simplicity is the ultimate form of sophistication" comes to mind, you're laid-back yet informative and thorough enough to spark our curiosity about the world and the places you visit. What you do might look simple however that's only because of all the work and effort you put into it. Overall I just love your content, it's refreshing to see two people presenting as opposed to the regular solo vlogger. Blessings to you. Come to Panama!
I remember the video by the shore line were you talk about your future plans, I’m glad your plans worked out so we can enjoy your videos, thank you guys have a safe travel.
Thank you for this video. Not that I want to become TH-camr but I watch quite a few videos of that sort and it’s always very enigmatic, like they want you to keep it a mystery. Your travel videos are such a refreshing approach as it’s clear you travel to travel, not to become influencers. I hope you will get rich but never change:)
I'm going to watch at least 30 seconds of your ads from now on. good to know! Also, I have given to another channel in the past, through Patreon. If / when i can afford it again, i'd give to yours. Didn't even know you had that. Maybe you could mention it more often?
You guys shed a lot of light on how these things work. I got 60k views for a Holi video in Nepal this year and got just some money but nothing near your Kyoto 46k views video. Americans love watching commercials. Great job Carol and Chris. Keep on traveling and enjoying your travel life together.
I've been following you about 3 years. I know the ad rule on TH-cam. I've almost never skipped any ad until it passes 30 seconds mark. I'm your loyal follower because seeing the world has been my life-long passion. I'm traveling around the world constantly, most of the time travel solo. I enjoy your travel contents, watch pretty much all your posted videos from beginning to the end.
Thank you for explaining this. I will watch the adverts more now. I really enjoy your videos and find them very informative. As a solo traveller, I am a bit nervous to leave Europe, but I find your videos reassuring to try travelling further afield. Thanks and keep up the good work!!
We watch your videos as a family to learn about travel tips for our channel since we like your laid back style. We are slowly growing but we are happy and proud with our family style content. Knowing that you guys value your content over money makes us love your channel even more. Keep doing what you're doing. ❤
This was very informative. I wont skip any ads esp. since I am jn a top tier country. TH-cam sounds like a scam. You do a lot work. Filming, editing, posting and they get a large chunk. I love your content and your vibe. Such a chill couple. Miss Chris' curls. Carol..you look very fresh. Content creation is a lot more complicated than most of us realized! This is probably more beneficial to travel vloggers that have a pension/retirement income to fall back on!
yes it is a tough thing to get into if you are only relying on youtube for money, fortunately it is working out for us now so hopefully it continues this way
You guys are literally the best travel channel on youtube!! No cap 🧢 there’s something about you guys the way you make your videos idk what it is but man you guys are the best for sure
Started following you guys after your Maputo drama...Moved back to Capetown after 8 years in Maputo and Mozambique...thanks for your U tube info...just watched the full add.🤣
Thanks for being so transparent! As travel creators ourselves it's interesting to see other channel's analytics. YT is such a black hole, so seeing this has helped make more sense of our own channel/audience. People think we are rich too 😂 Love you guys - we having been watching your travels for many years. All the best
I am sure it’s not easy to do a video like this because so much of your income streams fluctuate, so many variables. Your transparency is appreciated. I just adore JP. Your style is always so mellow and simple, interesting and fun, it’s lovely. Beautiful visuals and music, vibe. Take care and tudo de bom! 😘
My favorite travel channel ☀️ you deserve a lot more views for the constant quality content you deliver! Thanks for sharing how you make a living with the best job possible. Don’t forget to take a break once in a while and prevent burnout. With the uncertainty of income it can bring pressure or anxiety. 🎈
Hi Carol and Chris, just watched your interesting video on how you make your money on ytube, thank you. As I am a subscriber to youtube and see no adds I was curious as to how my viewing your channel would benefit you financially. Always enjoy your honest no nonsense videos, keep up the great effort you put into them. Regards and happy, safe travels, Brian
if you are using youtube premium to see no ads the money still goes to all the creators that you watched during the month, if you see now adds because of some other ad blocker then i dont think creators get any money from your views
Love how you explained this whole process. I'm in Canada (born in Portugal), always put a 'like' on your videos (for I really love and travel vicariously through them), and never skip ads, as I was already aware it would reduce your earnings. Keep enjoying your lives. Muita sorte.
I just like your videos and especially the ones that go off beaten path with adventure travel. I think that having more subscribers will boost your income. Thanks for letting us know about how important it is to watch the ads, I never knew that it mattered, so now I will let the ads run and not skip them.
I didn't realize that we had to watch a portion of the ads in order for you to get paid. I always click thru them because I hate ads. NO LONGER!! Love this channel and want to support you to the fullest.❤
ok ok....from now on no more skipping Jumping Places ads 😅 watching from Indonesia but Surfshark set to Australia so hopefully that helps, and you guys deserve every cent. You're the best! 🥰
I follow ye from Ireland😊 I normally hate adds lol but I’ll leave them on just for ye as I never realised that they actually made a difference to ye, I always thought it was just the companies advertising that made the revenue. Also, just to add, I absolutely adore following yer travels, ye make it look so interesting and the fact that ye include what dishes ye eat as well shows the culinary delights from each country. Well done, hope ye keep it up for as long as ye can😊🧳☀️✈️
Great info. One thing I always like about your video's is the music selection. Do you have an editor or do you edit the video's yourself. Who selects the music and where do you get it from?
I’m loving the haircut Chris. I’ve watched y’all ever since y’all were traveling and stranded during Covid. I love the videos as it’s a variety. I want to travel more and traveling through y’all 😂 love the places y’all visit.
Watched the entire thing. Honest, kind, helpful and respectful. Thanks for posting this. It's always so helpful to see where others on YT are at financially. Also, we are definitely those travellers that popped up after being cooped up during Covid. Lol. You guys are awesome! Cheers and can't wait to watch Sri Lanka content! 🤗🥰
Very interesting. I've often wondered how everybody gets paid but it's even more in-depth than I realised. Thank you. I will watch even more ads in the future 😀 Kevin from the UK.
I truly enjoy all your videos; the way you both naturally exude such wholesome energy really resonates with me. I wish you all the best on your travel journey and am confident that life will reward you further in time for the joy you bring to your viewers.😊🙏💙
Your videos are very wholesome. Many people like that you stay in basic accommodations. Showing the prices is really great, it gives us watching how much you spend daily so we can relate. The tours, sites you show are interesting and most people like them. The fact that Carol is a beautiful woman but you do not sexualize her in your videos is really great. Its nice to see her as just a woman, that's smart and knows how to find venues, etc.... Your doing everything right and your videos are enjoyable to watch. Keep up what you're doing!!
I discovered you guys by accident less than a year ago. Like others on this channel, I’m going to start watching ads because I want you guys to be able to keep producing terrific content. I was looking for videos on Camiguin Island last year to figure some things out and started watching more of your videos. You are my “go to” when I want to discover new travel places for myself and my wife. You two are special and your style is laid back, easy to watch, and very descriptive. Plus as a couple it’s great to see you together. Thank you for what you do. BTW, we did go to Camiguin and really enjoyed ourselves. Where is your home base or do you travel constantly? You ever take a break?
Extremely valuable information Chris and Carol. A lot of creators do not share their earnings or analytics so this was helpful to know. And who would have thought that a GoPro would be an ideal vlog camera? I Marlon, had difficulty with deciding which camera to use. I could make our videos highly cinematic but I realized it’s not practical to shoot with a heavy mirrorless camera and the stabilization with them is usually pretty bad. The GoPro is small, inconspicuous, with the perfect image stabilization making it an incredible vlog camera. If it was not for you guys I might have decided against using it for our videos. And we love watching all your videos and watch them from beginning to end. You guys show places in the simplest format without unnecessary edits and exaggerated cinematography and that is really valuable for subscribers. And I was going to quit uploading videos but your vids reinspired me to continue just for the fun of it so thanks for the inspiration. Cheers mates!
Wow! That was an impressive amount of information! Thank you… you guys are so open, honest, and wonderful to “spend time with”. Please keep doing what you’re doing… and keep doing it all HOW you are currently doing it. You are so refreshing, calm, chill, fun, informative, helpful… like dear friends! 😀
Thank you for being so open and transparent. We are at the start of our TH-cam journey (only 13 videos in) and are trying to juggle travel content creation with full time jobs, so hearing about where you have come from back in 2017 has been very inspiring. The information you have shared on your monetisation and analytics is super helpful. Thanks again.
Such a great video. Love how you both are so true to your viewers and so honest. Specially not getting sponsorships from companies you don’t like yourselves. Now days we all jump from creators to other creators bot woth yours u will always stay subscribed and will watch all the videos you make couse love the story telling and how much you tell about the destinations. To include the history. Thank you for all you both do. Keep up the exuberance videos
We have been following you for many years and love the way you present the history, off track locations, accommodations, meals and budget of each country. Your information is very honest and helpful. My husband and I say, " The Kids have a new video out!" and then watch your latest post ;-). I admit that we skipped through the ads but now that we know it helps you by watching them, we'll change our ways. Keep having fun and know we really appreciate your efforts with both travelling and with your editing. It's been great watching you grow through your Channel. Congrats!!
We love your videos as they open doors for us to consider travel to places we know nothing about. Chris: it also halps Carol is so easy to watch. Her being from Brazil is another opportunity as there is a nation of interest to so many of we Americans but know very little about.
I really enjoy your travel videos, you both are so genuine and honest. It helps us connect to you as real people. Thanks for giving us this information since I'm sure most people wonder about how Creators make money to do what they do. Started watching you both in 2019 and try to watch your latest posts. I'll leave your vids running on my iPad sometimes, while I'm doing other things because I know it helps your revenue. Cheers!
Thank you for taking the time to explain how this business works, sort of. It's a chance, but it seems very exciting. It really shows the appreciation for your audience. As long as you can, keep on traveling. You only live once❤👍
Thanks for sharing Chris and Carol, this is interesting. I will be sure to watch the ads for more than 30 seconds now (go and make a coffee when the ads come on). :)
Thanks for share the information, hope you guys keep making those amazing videos around the world 🌎, like the bird singing in the background 😃👍, best luck Dan
Literally watched every ad on this one so you guys can make some money! Love your content. Wifey and I are traveling back to Romania next week. One of our favorite countries. Have you guys ever been?
@@JumpingPlaces Super affordable, just stay away from Bucharest unless you like crazy drivers lol!! Constanta on the Black Sea is fun. We spend most of our time in Brasov (in Transylvania) bc my wife is from there. Like most places, the further you stay from the city center, the cheaper it is. When it comes time for you to plan for Romania, don't hesitate to reach out for advice.
Here is the other video explaining how we saved money to travel in the beginning: th-cam.com/video/NXUUO7MhbY8/w-d-xo.htmlsi=jlzrNM2VdSae7NmR
I think people watch your videos because you are so refreshing. You don't make it all about yourselves and you provide useful information. You are both a pleasure to watch. I feel like I know you....
I agree
So true!
Cheers, we always try and focus more on scenery, information and prices in our videos :D
I agree!
I agree and I understand what you mean when you write that you feel like you know them. Out of all the Vloggers, Carol and Chris are the ones I would feel most comfortable to approach if I saw them randomly while traveling. And of course I would have to ask Carol to show me her hair products.😊
It’s awesome that you’re honest about how you monetize your TH-cam videos.. I will now try to watch at least 30 seconds of ads here and there just to help out lol.

Very true!
I have stopped skipping adds for you guys. Keep doing what you are doing. Very informative and entertaining. You both have very friendly personalities and that is part of your appeal.
Cheers :D
Best explanation I've seen so far by vloggers about how YT revenue works. I learned a lot. Fantastic job!
Cheers! funnily enough we also learnt a lot while making this video, we found more things in the analytics that we didn't know existed before
When Carol does her hair like this, it just accentuates her incredibly beautiful face, my goodness. She should be on the cover of fashion magazines.
Lol, also, Carol seems like such a deep thinker. She's always plotting something about the next adventure.
Filipino audience are everywhere, since there's too many Overseas Filipino workers. I'm a Filipino watching from Dubai UAE.❤ Been watching you guys since you got stranded in Palawan Ph
Yes i think sometimes the Philippines videos can pay pretty good as there as filipinos watching from other countries also :D
I believe the the presenters 'charisma" is great for attracting viewers.
Thank you for your honest responses and objectivity in all your videos. They are really refreshing and make both of you truly interesting to watch and follow.
I love your new hair style, it looks young and energetic!
So happy to know everything you told us in this video!
Take good care! Happy travels! 👍🥰🙏
Thank you! You too!
@@JumpingPlaces You are most welcome, thanks to you too!
Take good care! Happy travels! 👍🥰🙏
The only travel channel i follow. You look so natural and honest.
Thanks!
Natural and honest is good 👍
As you get new subscribers, many of them like me will go back and binge watch your old videos, to get your back story. So I can see the old ones getting views now and then.
USA subscriber here. Oddly enough I started following you regularly after your recent Nepal travels. I’m glad you continue to follow your hearts and not chase the ad revenue.
that is cool! did you visit nepal?
I did the Annapurna Sanctuary trek in 1993. Your video brought back such wonderful memories.
I enjoy your video so much I will stop skipping the ads as well actually they're kind of entertaining but information is good to know thank you for being so accurate and information in this video from both of you guys I love that you're honest and I enjoy everything that you guys film thank you Kathy from West Virginia
Watching you guys from Malaysia 👋 We binge watch your videos every few months to catch up on all your travels. I love how you guys sometimes visit places that are not so much on the "You Tube Trail and you have a slower pace of travel which means you can show more about the places you visit.

Hi there!!!
In the middle of watching this video now.
Thank you for sharing your experience and information about channel.
We are been watching you for a few years, and thanks to you guys, we visited places and made our vacations unforgettable. It’s all because of your videos. We write down names, areas, countries. Pretty much following your foot steps. It’s soooo helpful !!🙏🏻
You are right. The shorts. Well, they are annoying. They do make people dumb as well, but that’s another subject.
Do not give up on this one!!!!!
There is lots of competition, that is true, but the way you got it- no one else we saw did it better. Honestly.
Keep doing what you doing, don’t worry about competition. Show off, slang, manners- all makes a difference to watched.
Hey) we gonna watch all the adds from now own 😉😉😉😉
Cheers! Which places did you enjoy visiting because of our videos? :D
@@JumpingPlaces❤
We went to all the beaches you guys visited in Dominican Republic.
We been going to resorts for years. After watching you we planned a trip. The best of our lives))
The beaches, hidden places, it was a paradise.
Next on the list is Philippines
It will be a very long trip from
US, but it’s worth it.))
I started watching your videos during pandemic until now I still keep doing it! The reason why I like your videos cos of your travel branding which is laid back a.k.a a local way wherever your country in.Good luck to both of you 🥰
thanks so much
Wow! I had no idea. From now on, I promise to watch the advertisements. I’m guilty of skipping them
My wife and I love all your videos, your videos are always interesting and informative without the sensationalism that a lot of others have. Your always kind and considerate to people you encounter. Must be so much work to make these videos, you deserve more. Now that we know we will watch the ads longer to help out. We are loyal viewers and fans from Canada. Keep em coming. Be safe. God bless
Thanks a lot! We actually met 4 Canadians these last few days that recognized us:D
Your video on Los Barilles Baja California Sur got us down there and we ended up buying a plot of land. Thank you for your channel guys!
I discovered you guys a few years back researching for a trip to Mexico and I think I’ve watched every video you’ve put out since! Your videography is really top notch.

Yes that Kyoto one is a bizarre amount though really, definitely not the norm for us for those amount of views
Thank you for the inspiration. Been subscribed since the El Nido daily vlogs.🙂 Thank you again Chris and Carol!😊

Hi guys I am watching you from Trinidad and Tobago. And love them all.
Thanks a really interesting & very honest insight into what it’s like making money off TH-cam & creating full time. Love your travel content 😊
I am sure it’s not easy to do a video like this because so much of your income streams fluctuate, so many variables. Your transparency is appreciated. I just adore JP. Your style is always so mellow and simple, interesting and fun,
it’s lovely. Beautiful visuals and music, vibe. Take care and tudo de bom! 😘

Love how you explained this whole process. I'm in Canada (born in Portugal), always put a 'like' on your videos (for I really love and travel vicariously through them), and never skip ads, as I was already aware it would reduce your earnings. Keep enjoying your lives. Muita sorte.
I just like your videos and especially the ones that go off beaten path with adventure travel. I think that having more subscribers will boost your income. Thanks for letting us know about how important it is to watch the ads, I never knew that it mattered, so now I will let the ads run and not skip them.
I appreciate that!
I didn't realize that we had to watch a portion of the ads in order for you to get paid. I always click thru them because I hate ads. NO LONGER!!
Love this channel and want to support you to the fullest.❤
ok ok....from now on no more skipping Jumping Places ads 😅 watching from Indonesia but Surfshark set to Australia so hopefully that helps, and you guys deserve every cent. You're the best! 🥰
For sure that will help, thanks!
I follow ye from Ireland😊 I normally hate adds lol but I’ll leave them on just for ye as I never realised that they actually made a difference to ye, I always thought it was just the companies advertising that made the revenue. Also, just to add, I absolutely adore following yer travels, ye make it look so interesting and the fact that ye include what dishes ye eat as well shows the culinary delights from each country. Well done, hope ye keep it up for as long as ye can😊🧳☀️✈️
yeah the ad revenue is everything really for us, without that we wouldn't have this job or life. Thanks for the support all this time :D
Greetings from Australia , glad to be part of your base audience, been watching for years. Keep up your great work.
Thanks!
Great info. One thing I always like about your video's is the music selection. Do you have an editor or do you edit the video's yourself. Who selects the music and where do you get it from?
Love you from Karachi Pakistan. God bless you and your family
Very interesting! I have followed your channel for a few years, my favourite travel channel. All the best from Canada.
Thank you very much!
I’m loving the haircut Chris. I’ve watched y’all ever since y’all were traveling and stranded during Covid. I love the videos as it’s a variety. I want to travel more and traveling through y’all 😂 love the places y’all visit.
Watched the entire thing. Honest, kind, helpful and respectful. Thanks for posting this. It's always so helpful to see where others on YT are at financially. Also, we are definitely those travellers that popped up after being cooped up during Covid. Lol. You guys are awesome! Cheers and can't wait to watch Sri Lanka content! 🤗🥰
Thank you for the information. For folks like yourselves that depend on the ads, I pinky promise not to skip the ads.
thank you guys, very informative continue traveling and enjoying every minute. thank you for the honesty.
Thanks for watching!
Since you and Kulas are my favorite bloggers,I am not skipping the ads!
Very interesting. I've often wondered how everybody gets paid but it's even more in-depth than I realised. Thank you. I will watch even more ads in the future 😀 Kevin from the UK.
Thank you very much for the detailed explanation of how it works. I'm starting my TH-cam channel and the information you shared was very helpful!
I truly enjoy all your videos; the way you both naturally exude such wholesome energy really resonates with me. I wish you all the best on your travel journey and am confident that life will reward you further in time for the joy you bring to your viewers.😊🙏💙
Thank you so much!
I just watched the entire advertisement for you guys . Still remember the best seafood dishes at Vina de Mar Chile . Best of wishes from 🇺🇸 .
Cheers! Vina del Mar was beautiful :D
Your videos are very wholesome. Many people like that you stay in basic accommodations. Showing the prices is really great, it gives us watching how much you spend daily so we can relate. The tours, sites you show are interesting and most people like them. The fact that Carol is a beautiful woman but you do not sexualize her in your videos is really great. Its nice to see her as just a woman, that's smart and knows how to find venues, etc.... Your doing everything right and your videos are enjoyable to watch. Keep up what you're doing!!
Thanks!
what a great video! new subscriber here from Miami, FL
I discovered you guys by accident less than a year ago. Like others on this channel, I’m going to start watching ads because I want you guys to be able to keep producing terrific content. I was looking for videos on Camiguin Island last year to figure some things out and started watching more of your videos. You are my “go to” when I want to discover new travel places for myself and my wife. You two are special and your style is laid back, easy to watch, and very descriptive. Plus as a couple it’s great to see you together. Thank you for what you do. BTW, we did go to Camiguin and really enjoyed ourselves. Where is your home base or do you travel constantly? You ever take a break?
Extremely valuable information Chris and Carol. A lot of creators do not share their earnings or analytics so this was helpful to know.
And who would have thought that a GoPro would be an ideal vlog camera? I Marlon, had difficulty with deciding which camera to use. I could make our videos highly cinematic but I realized it’s not practical to shoot with a heavy mirrorless camera and the stabilization with them is usually pretty bad.
The GoPro is small, inconspicuous, with the perfect image stabilization making it an incredible vlog camera. If it was not for you guys I might have decided against using it for our videos.
And we love watching all your videos and watch them from beginning to end. You guys show places in the simplest format without unnecessary edits and exaggerated cinematography and that is really valuable for subscribers.
And I was going to quit uploading videos but your vids reinspired me to continue just for the fun of it so thanks for the inspiration.
Cheers mates!
Love your transparency, Chris and Carol. Great information. Cheers and happy traveling.
Very informative video, it is fun to face our reality, keep up the good work⭐️
Hugs from sweden🇸🇪🌷
Wow! That was an impressive amount of information! Thank you… you guys are so open, honest, and wonderful to “spend time with”. Please keep doing what you’re doing… and keep doing it all HOW you are currently doing it. You are so refreshing, calm, chill, fun, informative, helpful… like dear friends! 😀
Very interesting! You're an inspiration. Thank you so much :)
Thanks for the detailed breakdown. 👍
Thank you for being so open and transparent. We are at the start of our TH-cam journey (only 13 videos in) and are trying to juggle travel content creation with full time jobs, so hearing about where you have come from back in 2017 has been very inspiring. The information you have shared on your monetisation and analytics is super helpful. Thanks again.
Such a great video. Love how you both are so true to your viewers and so honest. Specially not getting sponsorships from companies you don’t like yourselves. Now days we all jump from creators to other creators bot woth yours u will always stay subscribed and will watch all the videos you make couse love the story telling and how much you tell about the destinations. To include the history. Thank you for all you both do. Keep up the exuberance videos
You are very straightforward.Thank you for sharing
We have been following you for many years and love the way you present the history, off track locations, accommodations, meals and budget of each country. Your information is very honest and helpful. My husband and I say, " The Kids have a new video out!" and then watch your latest post ;-). I admit that we skipped through the ads but now that we know it helps you by watching them, we'll change our ways. Keep having fun and know we really appreciate your efforts with both travelling and with your editing. It's been great watching you grow through your Channel. Congrats!!
Thanks a lot and thanks for supporting all this time :D
Watching from Cape Town South Africa love your show.
Cheers!
You guys are very successful and grow very fast. You two have made a right decision to go on this path. Congratulations!
I will stop skipping ads from now on. Love your videos.
Thanks!
We love your videos as they open doors for us to consider travel to places we know nothing about. Chris: it also halps Carol is so easy to watch. Her being from Brazil is another opportunity as there is a nation of interest to so many of we Americans but know very little about.
Thank you for disclosing your trip plans on your channel and how all this started out!
I really enjoy your travel videos, you both are so genuine and honest. It helps us connect to you as real people. Thanks for giving us this information since I'm sure most people wonder about how Creators make money to do what they do. Started watching you both in 2019 and try to watch your latest posts. I'll leave your vids running on my iPad sometimes, while I'm doing other things because I know it helps your revenue. Cheers!
Thanks for doing that, it really helps :D
Boa! As a fellow travel vlogger and Brasileiro, you guys are a huge inspiration to me. Cheers for the video!
Love your humbleness.
Interesting. Another good one, you kids make great videos. I guess now I’ll watch the ads,or some at least.
Thanks!
Very informative. Your successful because of the quality of your work. I promise to watch ads!
Thanks!
Very interesting. You both deserve every penny and more. It's a fantastic travel channel. 👍😊💙🇮🇪
Thank you so much!
Happy for your YT success! I think I am one of your earlier subscribers. Congrats again!
Thank you for taking the time to explain how this business works, sort of. It's a chance, but it seems very exciting. It really shows the appreciation for your audience. As long as you can, keep on traveling. You only live once❤👍
yes we wouldn't have this live without our audience :D
Thanks for sharing Chris and Carol, this is interesting. I will be sure to watch the ads for more than 30 seconds now (go and make a coffee when the ads come on). :)
thanks so much
Thanks for share the information, hope you guys keep making those amazing videos around the world 🌎, like the bird singing in the background 😃👍, best luck Dan
Literally watched every ad on this one so you guys can make some money! Love your content. Wifey and I are traveling back to Romania next week. One of our favorite countries. Have you guys ever been?
not yet, maybe next year :D Heard it's affordable there?
@@JumpingPlaces Super affordable, just stay away from Bucharest unless you like crazy drivers lol!! Constanta on the Black Sea is fun. We spend most of our time in Brasov (in Transylvania) bc my wife is from there. Like most places, the further you stay from the city center, the cheaper it is. When it comes time for you to plan for Romania, don't hesitate to reach out for advice.
