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?

    There are a few I’ve been watching recently, but SwedishGringo has been the most helpful in my S.A. search (especially Brazil). TheCountryCollectors is another one off the top of my head

      Oh man he’s so girl-crazy though. I sometimes wonder if he was targeted in Rio because people knew he had a YouTube channel. Bro stuck out like a sore thumb… but at least he’s enjoying himself.
