I sometimes use travel vlogs as research material when planning my trips. I feel they have the potential to give us a glimpse of what everyday life in a foreign place away from the main sights. But I cannot for the life of me stand those vloggers who run around and yell “Hello!” at locals (I appreciate the effort to learn the local language, but who does that? That’s not normal human behaviour.).
Are there any vloggers who do not exhibit the behaviour above you could recommend?
Harald Baldr for me. I think he does the best job of showing a true account of what it’s like somewhere without being overly sensationalist. His longer videos and mostly unedited style aren’t for everyone but I generally find him to be the best one.
