Vagablogging :: Rolf Potts Vagabonding Blog
Here's a story: a university student posts up funny videos of her random observations on life. She builds up a huge audience with a million subscribers on YouTube. Now she's a popular vlogger. She's about to graduate and unsure of what to do next. So she calls up Lonely Planet and asks if they would sponsor her on an around-the-world trip. The deal is that she keeps making videos along the way.
Sound too good to be true? It happened for Australian vlogger Natalie Tran. Her YouTube channel, "communitychannel," has clocked over 400 million views. That's serious exposure any business would be interested in tapping into.
You can watch her adventures on a dedicated Lonely Planet page: Natalie Tran's travel videos.
