I want to be a travel YouTuber, but I have autism.

I don't have social skills and don't particularly like talking to people. Can I still make it, /trv/ bros?
>>
>>2893292
Yes. There are travel youtubers from this board. Andrew Platt although he is rollercoaster/theme park focused.
Make your limitation your gimmick. Make your travel vlogs about antisocial incel-friendly destinations and stuff like that.

>YouTuber
stopped reading there

>>2893292
Film yourself being a retarded fucking autist who cant interact with people across the planet
Constantly fuck up basic social interactions
Literally shit, piss and vomit when anyone is nice to you
Do it enough to end up on kiwifarms
I believe in you anon

>but I have autism
If you don't wear those silly earmuffs and you don't care if two different foods touch each other on the same plate, you should be fine.

You might want to start with short-form videos so people with ADHD like >>2894840 can follow along. Also, if you make short videos, you don't have to talk to people as much. Win-Win.

Why is this board so negative, anything I want to do I can just cover with AI.
>surprise locals with perfect language
>have a wonderful date with J girl
>how to haggle with Yakuza
>flying business/first/etc
>seeing Philippines as a Mexican-Spanaird
Basically just do random things but rework it with AI and stuff to make it cool without spending money

Clavicular does this successfully but he does look like a model

>>2893292
You have to have something. It doesnt have to be talking to people. Theres already enough channels like that. Maybe you can fight someone at every place. Or something autistic, idk.
>>2894871
I would like this. Be so autistic you make it on a foreign newspaper
>>
>>2895026

>cool
Just guaranteed to be another slop channel like all the others

Do unedited content. Walk around Tokyo with no shitty jumpcuts or edits. 5 Second intro at most that fades into the video. That's all it takes to stand out now
>>
>>2893292
Why is this channel so fucking comfy, brehs?
Also, you could definitely do something like this even if you were "autistic" as you say.

Honestly it would work, just be insanely insecure and retarded all the time, fuck up constantly, commit constant faux pas, people would watch
You'd probably get some weird fandom in Asia at least

I used to sometimes watch a Thailand youtuber called Cheap Charlie Chronicles (had another channel later on, for livestreaming called Billy Blue too). Total sperg, far more than the average youtuber, but he did manage to build a reasonable following. He's been picked up by Kick now and appears to be in Mexico.

cheapcharlielive is his handle on there now. Anyway, my point is, if he can do it your average sperg probably has a fair chance if viewers find you interesting enough. This guy has developed some social skills though, but he does claim that he barely spoke as a child.

I'm in the same boat OP. I want to have a travel channel focusing on hiking and outdoors stuff, I've tried filming some content while abroad but it just isn't any good. I'm pretty assburgery and I have social anxiety too so speaking into a camera doesn't really come naturally to me. Any advice on how to get started for real bros?

film the nature and then dub over it in post. you dont even need to show your face

I'm OP. I want what you want too, a travel channel focused on hiking and outdoors. I'm a huge loser so that kind of helps push out whatever social anxiety/shame I might have about filming and uploading myself, but I am still autistic and don't "get" what I'm supposed to be yapping into the camera, much less talking to people. Also I am in poverty so getting money to travel is pretty hard for me.

So my advice is 1. be a total desperate loser like me so much so you become shameless (needed to be a YouTuber), and 2. just record more, get more reps in. If you want to link up, drop your form of communication and I might message you (or not).

The problem with that is that viewers want a face and a parasocial relationship. Name one (1) travel YouTuber that does that, you can't because you don't make any money by doing that.

I don't watch jewtube at all so idk

I fucking hate that faggot so much

The only way to win is through volume. As many videos as possible. You will get better over time.
1 long form per week. 1-3 shorts 5-6 days per week. For 3-5 years. Think in terms of inputs.

I think the other viable route is by providing an educational experience that requires a deep understanding of the culture of the region. As a generic American, I don't gain much from watching another generic American hold a camera and show me things I can see on google maps.
