  • I spend the day exploring Mysuru, formerly known as Mysore. This leafy and charming Indian city contains some of India's most prestigious royal history - the Mysore Palace being the second most visited attraction in India after the Taj Mahal.

    I'm Jason, a full-time British Travel Vlogger and UA-camr who's been to 60 countries. I've been travelling around the world full-time since 2017.
    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 marked the start of my efforts to turn vlogging into a full-time job.
    After that European trip I explored much of Asia: visiting India, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Pakistan, the Philippines, South Korea and Kazakhstan.
    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, Lebanon, Israel and Palestine.
    I've travelled to North America just once as a UA-camr, visiting Mexico in 2021. Though I have been to both the USA and Canada, this was as a child on family holidays.
    In 2022, I took my first trip to Sub Saharan Africa, visiting 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. I then visited the Caribbean for the first time, covering the Dominican Republic, before heading to both Brussels and Amsterdam, then covering Taiwan and the Philippines in Asia. I finished off the year with a trip around Morocco.
    I started my travels in 2023 by finally visiting Paris, taking the Eurostar from London. I then headed over to Qatar for a few days, before heading to the south of India.

    I like the fact that you have always done your homework and have lots of facts to share.
    I don't understand the popularity of some of the big travel bloggers who just walk around and talk to a few locals, will eat something they don't have a clue about, just because another travel blogger did it, and got lots of views.
    To prove my point, let me give you an example of one of these very popular vloggers, named Luke. He visited a beautiful huge palace perched on a mountain top in India, but had no clue about the place??? He said he couldn't pronounce the name and didn't bother trying either. He then refused to pay the entrance fee because he claimed he was being 'cheated' because India charges more for foreigners than locals to visit these sites.
    Most of these vloggers do not understand that it costs a lot of money to maintain these sites. The Indian government invests a lot money, which is really the money that locals have paid in taxes. So the locals have paid their fair share towards the cost of maintaining these attractions.
    (This is the same thing as when an Indian student goes to university in the UK, USA or Australia. They pay three times the fees of a local. And again the same argument holds true, a lot of tax money in these countries goes towards maintaining the universities).
    But all these travel folk offer nothing, they just walk around these places, like The Walking Dead, with absolutely no clue of the history or the any background information to share. What baffles me is that have so many subscribers??? And maybe I am missing something??
    Just a simple Google search could have provided them with all the interesting facts not just for themselves but for their viewers. Unfortunately for a lot of them, they are solely doing it for the views, which is sad. They are going to regret it, later in life. It is clear you have a passion for travel which an inspiration for others to follow.
    Thank you for doing your research and always providing a lot of substance in their videos. It is clear traveling is in your blood. Keep up the great work in making not just entertaining but also very informative videos! Bravo!!
    ps..sorry, for the long essay.

      Thanks Dan. It’s nice to be appreciated for this - though I wouldn’t do it any other way. I feel it’s my responsibility to know what I’m talking about (or at least make an effort to learn). I enjoy that process too. Without any idea travelling to these place would be stale, with no context.

      @MrVinnu1 Рік тому +3

      You are right brother. They do all that drama and still get a lot of Subscribers. The main reason behind this is the mentality of Indians (most of them, not everyone). They tend to appreciate foreigners who are critical of India's situation. This is all due to the Pro-colonial narrative that is being fed to them from their childhood.

    I often wished, dating back to 2010 or so, that I could visit Myore aka Mysuru, I guess, that I could visit an ashram or take Ashtanga in the yoga district, as you called it there, with the old Sri Pattabhi Jois (now deceased). I caught the yoga bug here in Philly when the 'scene' was at its prime. Vinyasa Flow, though. Ashtanga does have a school here, but it is a bit expensive.

    The Wodayar royal family still controls the palace. The 10 day dasara festival is the main festival of Mysore in which the palace and city will be illuminated. The royal family does not have any political powers but respected by the people as they are part of several cultural and religious ceremonies
