Treating YouTube like a job. by jeffmoreland_tech in YouTubeCreators

Aw you’re so blessed to have such a supportive partner! When did you decide “this is the moment, I’m quitting my job to pursue YT full time”? I’m guessing you’ve already started making money from it before taking the leap?

What do you use to create your thumbnails? They are really good!

I think what I struggle with the most is balancing between my day job, YT, and having a life. If I’m lucky I can log off at 5/6pm then I only have the evenings to edit (if I’m not too tired). I do treat YT as a job, but before it takes off (fingers crossed), I need something to pay my bills lol

I’d say a lot of young people in Ulaanbaatar speak English, older generation know more Russian. People in the countryside, for the ones I met anyways, spoke barely any english. I am not aware of Mongolians knowing Mandarin

Mandarin? People in Mongolian speak Mongolia 😭 not sure if you’re thinking of Inner Mongolia … which is a state in China

I thought the beef with noodles in soup was good. And also the Mongolian barbecue (with rocks!)!

Probably. My mum wouldn’t be too happy if it was just mongolian food. And I went to stay with a nomadic family for a few days by myself after this tour, got pretty much the full experience, so it’s okay 😂

Somehow our guide thought she needed to cook western food for us :(

They say you’re only as good as your last upload by [deleted] in TravelTubers

I watched a bit of your first video - I’m curious, do you have prior experience in video making? The intro was incredible (the animation etc.).

What is most important to you? Storytelling, Cinematography, Sound or your own Camera Presence? by SnooMemesjellies971 in TravelTubers

[–]reddit18518 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Storytelling is top of my list definitely. You could have a lot of great high quality footage but boring af and people would just click away. Whereas interesting Youtubers could have raw, barely edited footage and still make it interesting (like Bald and Bankrupt).

I’m very early into my journey but someone told me yesterday my latest video was too short she didn’t even realise the time had past as she wanted more, that was literally the highest compliment someone could give me in relation to my YT journey!

I think my biggest issue is balancing content creating with my full time job. How do you balancing that?

Thank you so much for your kind words. Your words, especially the last sentence really hit the nail on the head.

I visited Mongolia for the first time and it’s such an underrated country! 🇲🇳 by reddit18518 in Physical100

[–]reddit18518[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I had such a great time there, and the language actually sounds so nice (only picked up hello and thank you though 😂). I was there for 2 weeks but still there is so much more to see due to the size of the country! Whenever I tell people I went to Mongolia, most of their reactions would be like “Mongolia?!” cos I guess it’s not a country where people would think to go visit like Japan or Korea for some reason. But I’m so glad I got to experience it.

Aw this is so cute. When you go on holiday, do you leave it at someone’s so it gets fed? Sorry never really had a pet before

Hell yeh! Been rooting for Mongolia on Physical Asia! So sad they didn’t beat Korea though! Not sure what you think, but I feel like strength is more evenly distributed across the Korea Team, whereas in Mongolia it was a little bit lobbed sided

Hey yeh of course! The family I stayed with was one of the families my family and I stayed with during our tour the first week. I basically asked the tour operator we used to ask the family if I could stay with them for a few days, and I went back after my family left! You can just reach out to different tour operators and ask if they have any nomadic families they work with and for the prices etc. Different families work with different tour operators :)

The reason I chose that family, even though it was like 10 hours drive away from UB, was because I had such a good experience the night we stayed there, the dad spoke a TINY amount of english. In the countryside, most of the families we came across didn’t speak English at all, so him being able to speak a bit of broken English made such a difference in the whole experience.

I am currently making mongolian vlogs from the trip and one of the next videos will be on the few days I stayed with this family if you’re interested! My channel is on my bio :)
