Nadine's YouTube channel was where I stocked up on travel advice and hacks before my gap year adventure back in 2017. I'm still a massive fan and froth her informative and fun videos.

A lot of her travel vlogs, like this one set in Russia (a dream destination of mine), are like entertaining guide videos, feeding you with facts, sights and insights.

4. Three Brothers SCORE in Mexico! by The Smith Brothers

I adore this video. It's cinematic, a little zany and gnarly as hell. It follows The Smith Brothers who travelled to Mexico to carve some waves.

If you dream of travelling the world surfing, this is the video for you. If you can't surf to save your life but can appreciate it's art from afar (me), this video is also for you. Not only that, this video also encapsulates Mexico. The food, the people, the sights and of course, the beaches.

I adore this video as it showcases the power of travelling. in doing so, you meet incredible people and gain new perspectives.

Our host in the video ventures out to travel to the least visited country in the world called Tuvalu in the South Pacific. It's only twice the size of the LA Airport with about 11,000 residents.

This fascinating video will inspire you to find an unbeaten track.

7. R O M A by Oliver Astrologo

Who doesn't love a cinematic montage? This video transports you to Rome, Italy, from the first atmospheric shot of the sunrise. 

After my brother watched Oliver Astrologo's video, he said "Wow. Phat vibe" and I think that sums up the video. You'll be buzzing afterwards, keen to walk through Italy yourself.

8. ABU DHABI, ARABIAN PARADISE! by FunForLouis

FunForLouis has hundreds upon hundreds of travel vlogs, all daring and positive, all showcasing Louis' insane lifestyle that'll inspire you in one way or another.

Perhaps I'm biased, but I am desperate to travel to Abu Dhabi so this vlog of his is one of my faves.

9. Freediving The Deepest Blue Hole In The World! by Sailing La Vagabonde 

Sailing La Vagabone follows a small family living on their boat and sailing across the ocean. The dream.

This will inspire you to think outside the box when travelling. Maybe a sailing trip or even a road trip would suit you best!

Fun fact, the family recently had Greta Thunberg on their boat... Um, vibe?!?!
