I'm Jason, a full-time British Travel Vlogger and KZreadr who's been to 61 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 KZreadr, 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 Asia, with videos following from India, Singapore, Taiwan, Japan, Mongolia, Thailand and Sumatra (Indonesia).

What a beautiful tranquil place. Busy town. Never had octopus satay but love chicken satay. The scenery is spectacular, that rain is torrential, the waterfall is worth getting wet for. Beaches are lovely. That fish is huge! Prayer is very important, a good time to reflect and calm your spirit. What a lovely relaxing time you showed us, thank you!
This look so much better than for example Bali. Way more authentic.

As a person from Sumatra, Indonesia, I can say that our island's economy is far above the other islands in Indonesia
Kudos to you Jason for exploring unknown areas in the world. It is very rare to see travel vloggers explore such places. Keep safe to you!
I've been to Pulau Weh a few times, the island is very peaceful ❤
Yes, many thanks Jason, for another informative and entertaining experience. Looking forward to the rainforest! Cheers!
Beautiful tropical island! The rain made it especially stunning. By the way, Jason, it would be so interesting to see diving on your channel!
Again, so happy to allow us sitting on your shoulder and let us experience the beauty of Pulau Weh. Just wondering, is it right to state that the island's environment is cleaner that what you would expect? i don't see much polution, plastic garbage, empty bottles and wrappers,....it actually looks quite pristine....
Beautiful, I didn't expect it was goong to be so beautiful. Have a nice trip!
Beautiful rainforest paradise. The humidity must be through the roof. I think it’s even making your hair curly. Thanks for the nice tour Jason.😊❤
Great entertaining & informative video Jason...the video became a nail bitter for me at the threat of you slipping on the rocks(phew). But Jason that black shirt with the wavy hair was magnifique🤩
Amazing Island
Fantastic places! How many wonderful inspirations for our relaxing video screensavers.
I'm planning to visit Indonesia soon. Been wanting to do that since the 1960's. But now I have a lot of friends (from Facebook) to visit along with amazing places, so I can no longer put off the trip. Thanks, Jason, for getting me in a travel mood with these Indonesia videos.

So beautiful thank you as always.
A great coverage of the island. Its like a paradise and being a friday really made it nice and more peaceful I think.take care and xmas greetings soon
wow - The views are amazing !
Another great video, Jason. Businesses usually resume normal practice after Juma'a/ Friday prayers (1 hour, give or take). You were looking at a Pandanus plant, not a pineapple. I wish it was a pineapple! Looking forward to your next video. Btw, the bridge is temporarily closed for maintenance.
Very beautiful place, food looks yumm.. thanks for sharing and take care 😊
hi Jason, happy to see you in Sabang! btw, the vehicle you travelled in with the uncle is called "becak" not a tuk tuk hehe. have a good one!
Pulau Weh is so peacefully, and maybe your video from Bukit Lawang will be amazing video
Hello Jason. It may be better if you always bring enough snacks , fruits & mineral water in your bag. There are not many foodstalls & kiosks in remote areas.😊 Enjoy your adventures in Sumatera, Gentleman! Thanks so much for sharing this beautiful video & for visiting Indonesia. Take care. Gbu.

Don't care
Beautiful rain forrest nature your trip-travel is amazing too
You forget to go to Lampuuk, the best beach in Banda Aceh. It's only half an hour away from the city
So nice. I hope you get to see the Rafflesia too. I saw a huge one near Lake Toba, almost a metre in diameter.
So beautiful there!
Beautiful island!
Amazing❤️
I love Weh Island 😍 so nature
Nice, lush resort
"the tower is closed for maintenance, until further notice"
Thanks again John in Chicago
Surprised that the coffee shop was open
06:30 that statement alone made me want to go there just to eat that satay 😊
You look great without hair product! It's curly!
U need to go to belitung islands its so beautiful islands
Welcome to Sabang Weh Island bro.
Amazing video of beautiful indonesia! Btw those are not pineapples growing there, thats some kind of palm fruits 😁 pineapples grow on the ground
Minute 18:22 means "Temporarily Closed for Maintenance". For diving, Sulawesi island has many nice diving spots. Follow Kristian Hansen's youtube channel, he's done quite a few diving lessons. But December is not the best for water activities as the sea can be quite choppy. Hope you have a nice raincoat for the rest of your trip, December is one of the rainiest months.
Great video jason very watchable - can you give us some everyday prices on your next ones - ferry cost- food- b& b etc. thanks bud ❤️🏴🏴🏴🙏
other thing....i watched allmost all of your your videos....i am still waiting for that first video where you try some local food that you absolutely disgust (like: showing on your face you don't like it at all) 🙂.... until now you seel to like about everything everywhere 🙂
On the Weh Island you directly meet the Indian Ocean..
I’d like to go to that coffee shop someday
If you take away the palms and beach it looks like my area of Western North Carolina. It's very green and rocky here with lots of hikes to waterfalls. Please be careful on those river rocks and even those concrete passovers as they can get slick, too. I assume you have some kind of plan b if you ever got in trouble on a hike while alone? Just a bit concerned. The video was gorgeous.
You should going to Maluku Island if you going to Indonesia again
Udara bersih dan tanah yang subur adalah tempat ideal untuk hidup. Terlalu banyak polusi dan kekeosan adalah indikasi buruk. Orang-orang yang mencuci di kali harus diberi tahu.
ive never seen pineapples grow on tall tress like that before

That’s not pineapple. It’s just screw pine that grow wild on sandy beach with salty environment. The fruit is not eatable. Yes the fruit looks very similar to pineapple, it color turns yellow when it got ripe. If you are interested you please to pick it up.
In Aceh you can still find many untouched oceans and mountains, and if you're lucky you can even see elephants coming down the road. ha ha.
Archay!
How was the transportation around the city?
is the Tuk Tuk loud like the rickshaws in india and pakistan?
❤Indonesia,👍👍👍👍
👍💖👍
สวัสดีค่ะคุณเจสัน🙏❤🌹
The sign said it was undergoing repairs and maintenance.

Hi Jason ! i know you have many talents, your botanical knowledge however is not one of them 🙂 🙂. The pineapple tree is actually a Pandanus, and does not produce juicy pineapples at all . (it actually are nuts that are edible, but perhaps not the most culinary ones you ever tasted) 🙂
INFORMATION.. "Once, "Weh island" was a free port and the most strategic one. It lasted for a long time and even became a route and a stopover for international traders before the formation of "Indonesia". However, without clear reasons, after Indonesia gained independence, the Indonesian government relocated this free port to "Batam island", where its sea route is not strategic at all. This free port had existed even before the Portuguese colonial era." "I think, Weh island had been a free port since the time of the Ottoman Empire."😊
Beave of you to have taken a trek with no guidance
สวัสดี
Still very nice beach we have holyday on sunday.though islamic country.nice video.
Isn't it nice to come across a place not spoiled by mobs of tourists and development (mega resorts, international airports, construction cranes, jackhammers, bulldozers and other horrors commercialized mass tourism has a tendency to bring with it). Don't spoil that. The entire planet doesn't have to know.
Aceh not indonesia
There is a history that is not taught in Indonesia that Sumatra should be part of Malaysia......Sumatra is Malay.....Malaysian Malays also come from Sumatra (we are the Malay family).....HR, our performance and thinking (Sumatra, Kalimantan, Sulawesi) were used to build the island of Java, in every school they were also busy being introduced to the "annoying" Javanese heroes. Sumatra, Sulawesi and Kalimantan had to unite and join together to become their own country, leaving the island of Java and forming a new country... ..Amen
