ABOUT ME🙋🏻♀️
I'm Christianne, a solo traveller, vlogger and entrepeneur from Surrey, UK. I spend half my time exploring new places around the globe with my backpack, and the other half creating videos about my experiences, what I'm packing, solo travel advice, money budgeting tips and anything else in relation to my backpacking lifestyle.

FAQ's
How do you afford to travel? - I now earn a full time living through creating these UA-cam videos, affiliate links, selling digital products and my clothing line. I used to simply just work any temporary job I could find to save up to travel! I budget the money I earn meticulously to reach my savings goals using www.backpackin...
Is travelling solo safe? - I would argue the answer is almost always yes! As long as you use your common sense and you follow your own government's guidelines about travelling in that country. I have made several videos on backpacking safety on my channel.
Do you have plans to settle down? Yes, I'm currently saving to purchase my first property in the UK and I'd love to have children one day. I doubt I'll ever live a completely 'conventional' lifestyle by society's standards though, as I often have my own preferred way of doing things.

I'm currently in Bolivia having just done Colombia, Ecuador and Peru. Your older Colombia videos were the first I watched of any youtuber so this has come full circle for me, excited to see your travels! :)
Question for you if you happen to know - the Covid vaccination requirements - does the "full vaccination" include boosters or is it just the main doses? I've seen a couple conflicting things.
@@brushandbird I'm not entirely sure sorry! ( I have had my booster). It might depend which country and how you are entering? Bolivia did not ask for any evidence at land border, Peru were very strict I had to show evidence to get in H&M haha
@@laurenbell1576 oh wow intense lol. No worries! I think the main dose + a booster will suffice for Colombia but I thought I saw something that said you need 40% of booster doses which was confusing.
Respect for emerging yourself in the language! I'm learning spanish now as well for my South America trip in 2023 and I kind of underestimated the difficulty of learning a new language... But it's also so so so incredibly beautiful :)
in the same boat with Spanish for 2023, so hard! She makes it look so easy I'm impressed
consider learning Armenian or Vietnamese and you'' see Spanish easier, not because I'm a native speaker.
Yay! So excited for your South America series 🤗💖 we are in the middle of a huge Colombia series and then we head on to Ecuador! Enjoy !
I am going to Bogotá next week, taking the very same flight from Heathrow. I am a bit nervous as I will be travelling by myself but this video made me so excited!
Yayy that’s exciting!
👍
Hi Christanne, hope your well. Been watching your adventures from the very beginning seeing all of your highs (and lows😔) and you are an amazing person who has seen so much. Your an inspiration to all who either want to start travelling or are currently travelling (like myself). I try to travel as much as I can between my fulltime job in the UK🇬🇧. Keep up with the amazing content and who knows maybe might bump into each other in a hostel in the corner of the world somewhere. Much love ❤. Steve
Thank you so much for the kind words Steve! 😊
The first video i watched about Colombia was the one where you traveled there and i've been following you since then. Can't wait for that Peru series
Beautifully presented as always
I’m all about the private room in a hostel - best of both worlds 🥳
Pocket Trailblazer - That is excellent advice ! :)
@@walkietalkietraveller2932 Thank you ;-)
Enjoy South America 😀 I love it🤩🇨🇴
Thank you 😊
Omg I stayed there in July of 2022! The private room was super worth it!!! Best massage I had in all of Colombia!
That's one good cup of coffee 8:03
Love watching you travel Christianne especially to my dad country of Colombia 🇨🇴
Great video as per
Don’t forget to show more of the food your having! xx
I look forward to every single one of your videos. I hope you are having a good time travelling!!
Thanks for sharing your amazing adventures with us! You have such a great attitude towards life and you seem to enjoy every minute of it! Nice hikes! Continue to have fun dearest Christianne!
Love your bravery. I can't wait for your Peru trip. I did Machu Pichu around 25 year ago and can't wait to see it again in your vlog. South America is so so beautiful. ❤
Watching this has got me super excited for my trip to Southern Africa. Flying out to Victoria Falls from Heathrow this evening!! Hope you're enjoying South America.
You always post when I'm at work - so I have to wait a few hours to watch. Gotta build that suspense 😅
Nice work on that hike! I have to say though, I much preferred the camera quality image of the DJI. This one doesn’t perform as well with stabilisation and low light, when you were making coffee you could tell with the grain that the GoPro was struggling. Appreciate you trying out new tech though, I’m waiting for the “perfect” vlog camera for those of us vloggers who aren’t super cinematic but still want quality! Honestly the iPhone camera is underrated, I find the stabilisation so good for vlogging on the go.
Omg TOTALLY agree, I had the GoPro on the wrong settings for this video, so hopefully should improve in future vids!
@2:00 thats quite the jump lol luckily it was nice enough for a soft landing
So good seeing you back in South America. You're going to love Peru too
Thanks so much for sharing Cristianne it was when you were last in Colombia that I came across your travel vlog. I have loved it ever since I hope to see you salsa dance again well there. I also remember when you went to the coffee bean farm and let us know about coffee.
So glad for traveling again!!! Missed ya ♥️
I’ve been binging all your old videos to get me through this final trimester of my degree and I’m stoked to see a new one today after a long day of classes 😅 Need some inspiration so I can plan where I’m going next year!
😂😂😂I was there where you are now. Now I'm travelling haha
Much love!😊✌
wait how do you extend lay overs? ... do you find a flight through skyscanner, see where the lay over is and then book two separate flights for instead? or is there an easier way to extend?
love your videos btw they keep me adding to my bucket list of places to backpack
I booked two separate flights after exploring various potential routes 😊
Aaaah I was in South America for summer and it was MAGICAL. Enjoy 🌟
I love to see these videos!!! So excited for the adventures to come.
Beautiful trip ..
I would like to inquire about the application that you use to find paths...or is it a path that you have saved before?
Already loving this series 🥰
Glad to hear it :)
hi, did U climb by yourself to Monserrate? you're brave, many foreign tourist including Spanish speaking rarely try to go on foot to the top.
I did go by myself, yes 😊 I passed quite a lot of tourists on the trail so I certainly wasn’t the only one!
I'm actually heading to Peru in two weeks! Hoping to get another glimpse off your adventure before I start mine! Have an amazing time :)
Loved the video!!! 💖 Enjoy Bolivia wonderful Christie!!! ❤️
you are so encouraging, thx for sharing and have a safe trip
Thank you so much!
Oh wow, what are the odds?? I just arrived to Bogota and I'm staying at the same hotel, how crazy!!
Deffo do the 2 day (rather than 3 day) colca canyon in peru. the best hike I have ever done!
I can’t wait til u get to Ecuador!! I was there this summer and views are amazing!
Heyyyyy its ramonnnn i met you in puerto Escondido i’m going to brazil to escape the new york winter, hope to see you around there!
Amazing you are back in latinoamerica..can't wait for your awesome vlogs..!
Another great vlog Backpacking, enjoy your trip, stay safe and be lucky on your on-going travels....saludos...
Hi 👋 Simply delightful! ! Can’t wait for more! ✌️
Nice video. Do you feel safe in Bogotá?
you're always fun to watch :D I wished you went to Bolivia sooner - would love to meet you in person!
Que ojos tan bellos ! obviously Chris! Have a funny trip in South America ! 🥰
I'm so excited for this series! I've never been to South America but would love to travel there. Btw, what made you decide on taking the GoPro as your main camera instead of the DJI pocket? ☺
Hi, welcome to Colombia
did you upload your Pakistan videos?
She will upload them in between the South American vlogs as she wants to release them all together
Exactly! Currently editing the full series and it should start going up in the next few weeks! :)
🌺🌼🌺
Awesme video. Nic use of the time I'd say! 😊
That was a fun little layover! I'm looking forward to this series...and the Pakistan series too? Lol you're so busy now! And that's a good thing.
Was just there in July. Miss it
Hi Christianne! I’m thinking of heading to Colombia around feb and have been watching your old video guides on it. I noticed you have your phone out quite a lot for directions on hikes etc - is this okay in touristy areas? I struggle with directions for the most part even with maps so am trying to figure out how best to approach this!
I’m Colombian, is not a good idea, in Monserrate is not a problem because is pack w police.
@@tatipola1 thank you!!
Best to take a burner phone for the maps. A cheating Samsung galaxy S7-S9 will do the trick. Save your other phone for work only at your accommodation
Great vlog! You always make me smile ☺️🥰
Aww thanks so much Emma, I'm glad you enjoyed!
I love the video 🥰💜
I am obsessed with the blue north face pullover! What’s the name of it? It looks like there’s multiple versions
I think it’s the 100 glacier cropped 1/4 zip fleece (but I’m not entirely sure unfortunately as I bought it in store from an outlet!)
@@BackpackingBananas No worries at all, that's helpful, thank you!
Great videos , Keep it up
you know what would be a cool video? teach us how to navigate an airport! Ive never flown before and Im concerned
Oohh that’s a good idea!
Every airport has a map available online on their on websites that is usually interactive, which lets you get an idea of where things are. Some even have time estimates for how long it will take you to get from security to a certain gate. I always study airport maps before trips, especially for ones that I’ve never flown to or am not that familiar with. It’s super helpful. Also gives you a good idea of what food offerings are about so you can plan accordingly.
@@leilareynolds3208 thank you so much!
Omg I miss Rappi App so bad!!!!
Shes cute,thanks for visit my country,your glasses are nice👍parcera
how did you extend the layover? did you call and ask for flight changes or was it an option to select from the start?
I just booked 2 separate flights 😅 that was the only way for this route!
Where do you take Spanish lessons?
Hello😊How are you? First of all, thank you very much for your videos and your good energy🥰
I need your advice because right now I'm in Colombia and I want to go to Mexico next month for a 3-4 months period to explore this beautiful country, I want to find a place with beach, quiet, safe, with nature, with good WiFi (because I work remotely) and not too touristic (certainly not a party destination) and more or less cheap because I have a set budget😊
Please tell me based on your experience in this country, which are good destinations for me as I completely trust your criteria and I am open to book an online consultation with you as this is very important for me😃
Sending you many hugs and keep up with your good energy✨
I thought South America was in its Summer right now - looks pretty cold there
Great vid as ever though
The elevation affects EVERYTHING 😅 Bogotá is always a bit chilly!
@@BackpackingBananas Good to know - thanks
It's coriander, isn't it? Love your videos 😁
Yes 😅
No way you slept 7 hours on a 10.5 hour flight. Jaja. I know i couldnt
It’s a special skill 💁🏻♀️
What does what was written on the cup translate to in English?
What a beautiful eyes!!!!!
Have you ever visited morocco before?
Where is the trail runners from?
Hoka 😊
Netflix don’t work with VPN’s anymore😢
I learned that if you use a credit card that is clearly from another country, the VPN setting to a different country doesn't really work anymore. I think it still does for America, but I'm not sure which other countries it actually works for anymore (if any). I wish people running these ads wouldn't mention that aspect of it anymore for this reason. Some of them have to be residents of the countries where they know the VPN thing doesn't work for this, but they include it in the ad anyway. So it's false advertising.
How do you do them long hour flights 😂
Night flights are much more manageable 😅
I have a few questions if you don't mind. Did you take a rapid test/PCR test prior to your traveling? Were you fully vaccinated and received the boosters prior to your travels? And were you or are traveling even though COVID-19 is still a threat? Do you know if Colombia is in the high risk range or were there any warnings posted by the British government? Thank you
You don’t need a test, I think you do need to be vaccinated though which I of course am. Covid 19 will always be a threat my love, we have to learn to live with it 😊
Take me with u 😢
🍌
😘😘😘😘😍
Cmon. Su español es mejor que este. Ojos tan bellos?? Re read the double L pronunciation. Se que su español es mejor que mio
coriander 😂
You can always tell who the tourists are because they have perfect gear and struggle a lot
A tourist is anyone visiting somewherenthey do not live. Hence, Christianna is a tourist.
hi have i missed the pakistan videos ??
Hi Richard, I've decided it's best to edit + complete the full series before I begin uploading and so as soon as it's ready (hopefully in the next few weeks) I will upload the full thing! Thanks for your patience 🙏
@@BackpackingBananas thats ok i just didnt want to miss any of your adventures keep up the good work x
In order to not be a bad example I would recommend cutting out your "nose over mask" at 1:57.
Shut up brainwashed sheep!
@@tijay8507 triggered much? ^^
@@jenny100582 Only snowflakes and brainwashed sheep get triggered! you are pathetic and Bill Gates said thank you for being a weakminded blinkered fool!if you think a bit of bog roll protects anyone from a virus then it shows your limited intellect!
