I Drove 100 Miles Along The Iran Border

1.6M views · 11d ago · 40:19

Iran is my favorite country in the world, and since I’m not able to get the visa right now, I decided to do the next-best thing --- road trip 100 miles along the Iranian border (on the Turkish Side). I came to experience Kurdish culture and hospitality, which is the same in both Iran and Turkey. It was one of the most incredible 3 days of my life and I hope you enjoy watching our journey!

Join Revolut and get $40 here! I first came across Mehmet in a small article on a Turkish news site, and that was all it took for me to book a flight to Turkey and go find him. For 17 years, he's lived completely cut off from the rest of the world, with no neighbors and no connection to modern life. All he cares about are his goats. This is the full story of the world's loneliest man!

Entering The World's Narrowest Island (Philippines)

4.2M views · 1mo ago · 24:55

The Philippines has more than 7,500 islands, and today I'm taking you to the narrowest inhabited one: Bilangbilangan! I found it by randomly zooming in on Google Maps and got so curious that I hired a boat for a 5-hour ride out there. I showed up unannounced and filmed the whole experience. It proved once again that Filipinos are some of the most welcoming people in the world :)

I Brought My Wife To Iraq (Worst Idea Ever?)

2.8M views · 5mo ago · 32:26

Everyone told us we were crazy... So we spent 7 days in Iraq to see it for ourselves, and it was nothing like we expected! We wandered the buzzing streets of Baghdad, witnessed the holy shrines in Karbala, and stood among the ancient ruins of Babylon. Everywhere we went, we were met with tea, smiles, and some of the warmest hospitality on earth.

I Spent A Day With Kids Who Walk 5 Hours To School

9.9M views · 5mo ago · 21:38

In a remote village in the Philippines, students hike 5 hours per day through dense jungle just to get to school. I joined them on this insane daily journey, crossing rivers and climbing muddy mountains before the first bell rang. What I saw completely changed how I think about access to education.

Inside Australia's $500,000 Micro Homes

1.7M views · 6mo ago · 36:43

I traveled to Melbourne and Sydney to step inside Australia's smallest homes, and what I found completely changed how I think about "space." The people who live here have squeezed entire lives into just a few square meters each. This is what extreme minimalism really looks like!

In India, I Just Had My Travel Nightmare

3.4M views · 6mo ago · 36:40

I went to India to tell the story of the country’s only female truck driver, and along the way, we got caught in multiple life-threatening landslides. This turned into one of the craziest adventures of my life, and it gave me so much respect for the people who brave these conditions every day in Himachal Pradesh. I’d love to hear your thoughts and opinions in the comments below.

In Tanzania, dozens of people with albinism have recently been killed and their body parts have been sold for witchcraft-related beliefs. It's one of the most terrible things I've ever heard, but when I discovered a support center for albinos in Tanzania, I wanted to check it out and learn more about what's happening and how we can help them.
