I have been loving the evolution of your content these past few weeks. Keep crushing it Christian!!
Thanks man. Feel excited like never before to post. I’m still keen to do a NYC collab asap
Both of you guys are killing it!!! Because of both of your content im starting my TH-cam channel on my upcoming trip to SE Asia. I'm completely inspired by both of you achievements! #legends
When you talked about teaching a skill you already have (and thinking "I don't have any skills to teach") one good thing to add is that you can teach English online. You don't need any certs and most of your students will already have a grasp of the English language, they usually just want to have a conversation with you and you correct them along the way. This helped me make ends meet for a good 5 months while transitioning jobs in China. Seriously, this video is fantastic.
Collin Abroadcast any websites that you’d recommend? I’ve heard about vipkid but I’ve heard that can be hard to get on at.
@@RobbyONeill1 I used to use Verbling. It's been a year or two now but it was good to me. You set your own price and schedule
He literally made money by telling us how he makes money 😉

Please help me finds 1000 viewers, 1000 subscribers and 1000 followers and 10 comments.Please help me !
Love how you teach the correct way of patreon. I hate when people ask for donations so they can buy a drone without giving value to their donators 🙌🏼
Whaaat? A video to help you make a living online, 25 minutes long, content packed, and *not trying to shovel feed us courses?*
he didn't feed you a course. he fed you a travel guide. i'm supportive of both--there's a reason you're here trying to learn more :)
He's Canadian, thats how they are....the nicest, most generous people who love to help others
This was literally the most helpful and genuine video I’ve ever seen on making a living off traveling and I love it. Thank you!!!
Hi Giselle, on my latest film, I explain the 6 benefits of working and living remotely. I think you'll find it useful....check it out! 😌th-cam.com/video/g6gW1ZkyS80/w-d-xo.html
25 mins of retention time added lol. It seems like a dream job or at least for some of us trynna make it a dream job but it is A LOT of work. Capturing all those timelapses, carrying pounds of gear on a scooter, through a jungle trek, at a beach then being scared to leave it by the ocean because someone might take it so finally you don't end up going in the water, watching a beautiful sunset but in reality you're actually recording it more than you watch it, then you gotta get the drone shot, then the 120fps b roll of the sunset, then you gotta add instagram stories then when you're done the sun has set lol and time to get that back pack on and ride that scooter home, transfer the files, recharge all the gear, then go edit and release that video to only get a few views on it. It takes a lot of work, and a mentality to not give up, 100 hour work weeks but in the end I rather be doing this than go back home being a waiter at the cheesecake factory. I started this journey 9 months ago and couldn't be happier, a lot of inspiration came from you. I will add if anyone reads this short essay and is thinking about doing it be prepared to work full time + overtime and maybe not see any money in the beginning, but if you're strong minded and know it is something you want and don;t have a quitters mentality then go for it, worst case scenario if you don't make it you will have a collection awesome videos with tons of memories and a ton of video knowledge you'll learn along the way to help you out in the future.
Volpe Where Are You Nice inputs but please dont buy your instagram followers. Like Christian said “I see you”
This video is gold! Thanks for sharing your tips, they’re not only helpful for people that are just starting but also for people that have been around for a while!
Tip #1: don't have kids.
There are some travelers on TH-cam that have their kids with them. One I saw had a baby traveling around lol
@@arielzshell they're basically kids 😭 they're a huge responsibility and dependent of you.
This guy is incredible! He started from the ground and build everything he has now. Thanks for the tips!!
I think the most important part was the first thing you said... You Will Need to Work Very Hard.... We do have a decent following ourselves and it does help pay the bills for sure. But it will take time to develop a large enough audience to bring in a significant amount of income, it is not an overnight thing (this is for anyone looking to do this for a living, don't quite your day job at the beginning). On a side note Your cinematography is always well done by the way. Nice work as always.
I love that you included other youtubers and their success too! community is everything
LOVE this! I quit my job 5 years ago & officially getting “paid to travel”
This lifestyle isn’t easy in the beginning, but I learned HOW to manage everything.
Awesome video!
uh no you didn't. i've checked your socials. stop pretending to live the life you don't. talk and talk but you don't walk the walk
Your contents are of high quality and I throughly enjoy watching them. The fact that you have openly shared your business model says a lot about your personality. You are a Champion !
Lostleblanc paved the way!! Great video as always! We started our journey in July and embraced the grind since then and we are loving it so far! Very thankful for all the advice! =)
DUDE! I am super impressed with what you have accomplished. At 62 yrs old I wish I had 10% of the balls you had WHEN YOU STARTED OUT AND CONTINUE TO DO! I pledge to actually start with your first video in 2015 and watch every one until I get current.
I think the life you live is what 98% of the people wants but I think the hard thing about that is the constancy! I’m very proud even if we don’t know but don’t give up buddy!
Insanely happy this vid popped up on my feed and i decided to watch the entire thing. It's exactly what I needed to see tonight!
Same happened to me. This is the video I needed. I really don't know how I stumbled on it.
Christian you are such and inspiration!!!! I love your videos, your editing is THE BEST! You have inspired me to make my own travel channel ❤️
Destination Paradise le Blanc is the best! You can't just imitate that!!! But good luck with your vlog, I just subscribed
Destination Paradise I subscribed and watched for video. Do you have English videos?
The Traveling Lotus yes! Just did my first English video, it is uploading. And now on everything will be English
Lost LeBlanc thank you!!! This means the world for me 😍🙏🏽I hope we meet one day
I've been traveling for about 12 years. I don't have a channel.. but I've been into marketing online the whole time.
To those looking for ways to fund your travels.. I'd suggest looking up a program called "Laptop Earnings".
That'll show you quick online hustles you can use to cover costs while you gradually build your channel up and work on your editing etc.
It's probably the best all encompassing course I've come across.. very straight to the point.
thank you. you're right. appreciating every subscriber really is important, regardless of how big you get.
This is golden my dude! Keep up the great content
I have never felt more excited to pursue my blogging dreams than when I watch your videos. Honestly, your videos are the most informative, the most entertaining, and the most motivational. Thanks for all you do and thanks for encouraging the world with your wisdom and giving us information that helps give us ideas of how to act.
Hii Reno, in my latest film, I can explain the 6 benefits of working and living remotely. 😌 I think you'll find it useful. Check it out! th-cam.com/video/g6gW1ZkyS80/w-d-xo.html
This video was so motivating 🙏🏼 not just to travel and hustle but to remind us that we’re all different and we can’t follow trends and expect to shine from doing so. This made me think about who I am what I have to offer and things I can do differently with my channel. Thank you
Well done. Keeping my interest that long is tough but I stuck through it. Thanks for making it so easy to watch, so much that I didn’t even realize I was jacking up your retention analytics 👏👏👏
No doubt. I put out 10 minute videos and I’ve gradually grown to 3 minute retention averages, not sure if that’s on par with being good but watching retention grow means your learning and doing something right. TH-cam really gives you all of the data to tell you if your headed in the right direction. Great video, I genuinely appreciate it.
so generous for sharing crucial information without asking anything in return... thanks!
First time viewer!! Subscribed ✅
Lovinnnnnng it Christian, you speak very clear & direct which is very helpful!
I like your generosity. You're not afraid of competition.
Also, never forget, always have a cute chick in your videos :)
No, not quite correct. It's, have a cute gal in the thumbnail of your video :P
This dream of mine is so big and your words are so good that I got goosebumps listening to you! Thank you for this!
u know me too im in a bad place now it is a dream and nessecity i leave and travel is perfect im trapped due to lack of funds is it possible reallu
I really wanna thank this channel for making me motivated to travel the world even when my life is going through rough phase
Fantastic video Christian, this is really valuable advice for new channels. Appreciate your insight :)
Awesome content! This year I ended up focusing all my efforts on TH-cam as well. Found that the rest of the platforms just suck time with not much coming from it. Hope to cross paths with you someday on our travels!
Wow, bro, that's the video with the best and most diverse information on the subject! Plus it's well edited and fun to watch because of your personality! Thanks!
Love how detail u r and no bull crapping your viewers
I feel great every time I watched your travel videos.
I wonder how many people created youtube channels because of Cristian? lol
Jumping Places Probably NONE, after this we all clicked on the next travel vid in our feeds.....
You’re living my dream. Thank you so much for your work. It‘s all worth it, be proud!
All the best to everyone tryna start Vlogging and explore the world .
You are on the first step to success ❤️
I really like how you are so transparent about your income streams. You have a very sympatic way to tell your stories, which is probably one of the main reasons you got such a good community. I made a few travel videos just for me and my friends, which is very fun and I keep enjoying them. I definetly will work on my skills and equipment for the trips to come! If I want to monetise them, I am not sure of.
My way of reaching the goal of being able to travel most of my time will probably look way different then yours, but you are definitely inspiring me to hustle my way towards this goal! Keep it up! :)
I've legit just quit my job and am on my way to making a name for myself as a content creator. Thanks for all your advice Christian! It really hit home when you threw in your old editing style to compare to where you are now - fingers crossed my videos will have such a fantastic glow up as well : )
I've been watching your videos since 2015. Since then, I realised travelling is my passion. I just came back from a 3 and a half month long trip to Costa Rica and it has been unbelievable. Now I've been doing TH-cam for a while, and even though things aren' t growing much, I am still hustling to make money while travelling
Hi Anna, on my latest film, I explain the 6 benefits of working and living remotely. I think you'll find it useful....check it out! 😌th-cam.com/video/g6gW1ZkyS80/w-d-xo.html
This was the first video I saw if yours and I have to say thank you. Very inspirational and helpful for sure! I'm planning a trip for next year to Eastern Asia and this really got my passion reignited to up my editing and to officially make this trip happen. Thanks again man!
I'm a mermaid, not a sheeple! 😆😂
This is one of *THE BEST* videos I've seen on this topic. I'm a new viewer and now a new subscriber! Thank you for what you do. Keep up the excellent work! ♥
Dude I love your channel and videos, as a Balinese your video guide about Bali is about 90% true! Would love to meet you someday here!!!
One of the most honest guiding videos. Great job bro
Hey Christian,
My name is Claudiu and i'm in my last year of highschool. Since last year, everyone around me has been putting pressure on my studies, how I need to have good grades and go to a good university. But after many hours of thoughts and processing, I've come to realize that my dream is to become a traveller and share my experiences with the world. It's something that I am passionate about, I absolutely love editing pictures and videos and even tho my community is really small, I sometimes get people telling me how they like my few montages and I can't express how happy I am when I hear those things. I've been following you since you had around 70k subs on TH-cam and oh man have you been growing, you are the one person that makes me believe and remember that my dream is not impossible to achieve.
I wanted to thank you for all the tips and amazing videos you have been giving to your community.
Also, I am really lost right now as time flies by and I have to make a decision on what to do with my life (uni or travel).
Help me guys !
wow you have the exact same mindset and viewpoint as me. im a senior too and i feel the same pressure to pursue hard studies, although i feel as if my happiness lies in being creative and just being free spirited and traveling. i feel conflicted and afraid too.
Focus on your dreams. Uni is pointless unless if it contributes to what you want to do in life
You might like to try seasonal work for a while. It lets you travel several times a year, it provides you with consistent income, and it will give you material to start filming. You might like to see my tips about it in future videos
Love this type of content, thanks Christian! As a travel photographer and videographer a lot of this rings true, people don't often see the amount of hard work that goes into this type of career, and just assume "oh they got lucky and take pretty pictures". NOPE. Hard work.
Wow. Pure gold. SO needed to watch this!! Thank you SO MUCH, Christian, for putting such a comprehensive, informative, and informational video out. This was just the motivation I needed. Thank you!!!! 🙏 🤗
By far THE BEST VIDEO I’ve seen in the last three YEARS!!!!!! So inspired. Well done!!
Trying to start a travel channel during quarantine. *MISSION IMPOSSIBLE*
ACTUALLY, its not. I wish I would have seen this and started gathering my gear prior to the last couple weeks. I went all over the country wherever was permitted. California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, Colorado, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Georgia, Kentucky, Indiana, Nebraska etc. You can turn any place into an adventure. "Adventure is all around you , you just have to find it". There's alot of clips I could have gotten and shots I wish I would have taken with the camera I already owned. You can do this, just find new places, take your equipment with you and run with the material you can capture.
Moved to Florida to hit my restart button, start Keto and transform my life while vlogging and letting the real me come through with no filter. Dropped 40 lbs in 3 months. Vlogging my journey to share the ups, downs and all the comedy along the way.
Good luck with your journey and congrats on your weight loss accomplishment!
I've just seen that you actually managed to get more than 3M people watching an unique video in your channel. I'm happy for you and you've just proved that consistency is the key. Congratulations and keep going with it I believe you have potential to go even further
Love how genuine this guy is. Love your channel. You're awesome Mr LeBlanc!
I don't do anything TH-cam related (I'm Pinterest Manager), but this was sooo useful for me too!! Thanks Christian!

Hey! i've been watching your vlogs just today and now i'm stuck in your channel. Watched it the whole day. This inspires me to be a vlogger. Thank you for making this video. Godbless!
I just wanted to say I’ve been watching your videos to help me start my own TH-cam and thank you for the content and advice you give out!!!!
Love this! I'm thinking of giving the travel vlogging a shot! I'm a little older than most who do it, but I definitely wanna give a different flavor to it! Thanks for the tips!
Noticed you started your channel! On my way now to par take in the flavor. respect to you, right behind ya! 🖖🏾
I feel like this was a really transparent and helpful video! THANKS for sharing! :)
You forgot number 11. Have a hot girlfriend to put in your videos over and over
Wow... i just came to this channel recently and i have enjoyed every second of it. The content you make is just breathtaking man.
I've been studying the career my father forced me the study. After 2 years I think im about to drop out and move out the country, wish me luck.

@@nanduvt5175 yeah i recently gained another one ;D still feeling super grateful
Wow I am really impressed with your skills, you are an amazing inspirational speaker,. Your extremely knowledgeable and I thank you for sharing that with us. It’s great to see such enthusiasm in such a young man. Keep living your best life and live in the moment.
Christian, I appreciate your message at 21:34 and hit me hard! I am still into your video because of how engaging you are and I can feel you're being honest and authentic! Hats off to you!
This was amazing advice. Wow. Excellent job. Thank you.
point 10. Be flexible. "Be flexible, do all kinds of jobs so that one day you don't need to do that job."
So important in every field. Learnt some good lesson today.
Okay dude. You are fucking genius. Loved the content!
I was sold when you said "scalable"
Keep the good work!
this is literally exactly what i was looking for today, amazing work man!
Thank you Christian, great tips.
Keep up the amazing work.
Good things come to those who hustle.
Ten minutes in, and no mention of your gal pal. She featured in your thumbnail, she's the slow-mo eye candy in your vids, and you clearly understand that she is a major contributor to your online traffic for those very reasons. If we see two channels like yours, one with hot girl in bikini and one without, where are we more likely to navigate? Not acknowledging her impact on your views, and therefore your revenue stream, is disingenuous.
@@Onlylovecanwait Lost LeBlanc is advising us on the feasibility of making money through travel videos. He sets out the many ways in which he has carved out a niche for himself, set himself apart from others and applied clever strategies which have led to a successful career in this field. What he hasn't done - at any point in this video - is acknowledge the fact that his cute, bikini-clad girlfriend provides him with web traffic that he otherwise wouldn't have. And he knows this to be true, because he puts her in his thumbnails, and she features in numerous slow-motion glamour shots throughout the videos themselves.
@@gallopingnuns6732 EXACTLY. lol.. I would appreciate this video MUCH more if he was to acknowledge the pull she has to his subscribers/viewers.
To be fair he did travel a good amount of time before meeting her. Wasn't rich but he made a living while still traveling.
I started TH-cam 4 months ago with 4 subscribers I'm still gonna keep going I can only better myself each day
Just stumbled on your channel and you have a comment at the end of someone saying that you keep their attention through the whole video. I was thinking that through the whole video! Thank you for the content you provide. At the minute I am researching how to travel and start up my own channel and make money in the process so this video has been invaluable. Thank you so much and keep doing what you're doing!
Man ! You actually encouraged me to start my own TH-cam travel channel !!! Thank you so much !! Wish me luck !!!!
First video seen and I am hooked. Great job dude. You seem like a super nice guy. 👌🏼😊
You kept it real asf in this video. Thanks for the wisdom.
This video is amazing... I watched so many travel vlogging videos but he went into details and explained everything honestly without sugar coating 👏🏾👏🏾thank you
Okey, seriously tho, this is dreams, to be honest this is really what dream life looks like ! 🏝️🌍🌴📷 Well at least for me but I think many others from here too think like that ! Great video, very informative, also cool that you share this with us, many would not share anything and keep it to them selves 😎
This is literally the best advice I’ve seen on creating TH-cam content ever💯 I enjoy these videos man! Plus this has motivated me to do more videos and try new things for my TH-cam channel! Keep up the good work 👌🏽🌎
Your honesty, determination and straight forwardness have inspired me to equip myself in order to launch out at the opportune time. Thanks much.
i love to follow one of this travel vlog that enable me to see further what the best places to explore when i am on travel mood
Thanks for sharing knowledge and inspiration, i really love your channel. 😁😁
I just spent 25 min watching this video, this guy just has the natural talent of keeping you interested in everything he says...
Great motivation 🤩thank u dear brother❤️love from india❤️🕺❤️
These are some great tips! Maybe in the future I will come back to this video, but at the moment the only possibility for me to travel is work work work! :)
I've never been so motivated in my life.

I’m travelling to Bali for the first time and I’m planning to make my first vlog 👌🏽
SeroVlogs me to I’m going to Japan in January can wait please sub to my channel I’ll do the same
You are honestly an inspiration and motivation, especially when you show how you used to film and how it has improved. I hope I will also develop my filing skills like that!
There's already so many travel vloggers taking all the views 😗
I wish I could go back 5 years and start travelvlogging.
yes there are alot of them, but most of them produce shit conten, focus on your content and market it, eventually you will grow. Also make sure to have a remote work job or freelance to support yourself till your youtube and instagram picks up.
I was just about to ask you if you will make a video like this 😍 I even have started a travel channel because of inspiration from you 😅
PS. I hope you never stop with the amazing setup of double glasses 😂
Never imagined that these videos would be the start of a multi million dollar business. ANYBODY can do it and I want to show you how in my Free 1 Hour Training: lostcreatoracademy.com/freetraining
Christian. I had enough knowledge about photography and videography and i do some travel content, but it's a hard time for me to grow and earn money due to low following accounts and no audience. what to do?

Teaching English online! Been nomadic with it since quitting my 11 hour "real" job in thailand., just need my portable wifi box to stay connected for a few hours a day. Hoping to expand onto multiple income streams soon. Back in the UK for Xmas with the family, but working in the mornings only has been amazing.
