Travel undoubtedly remains one of the most popular and beloved hobbies of humankind, allowing people to explore and discover new lands and cultures. In addition to personal exploration, we now have the opportunity to travel 'through the small screen' via travel vlogs, a combination of blogs and videos, providing a real glimpse of the landscapes and cultures of different places. Below are the top 10 travel vlogs worth following in 2018.
1. Vlog Love Alana Chan
Alana Chan takes the lead with a refreshing, humorous, and somewhat quirky approach, making her stand out. Capturing her travel journey with carefree enthusiasm, she doesn't focus too much on self-presentation or creating a distinct image. Instead, she simply wants people to understand the experiences she's having. Her videos give viewers the feeling of personally exploring new travel destinations through a first-person perspective.

And don't be surprised if you suddenly burst into laughter at some of Alana Chan's humorous antics in the video. For example, in the clip 'The Grand Mosque,' Alana Chan stops at the Grand Mosque in Dubai at night, where she witnesses the magnificent architecture illuminated by a soft blue light.

In the video, she captures unique details in the architecture of the sacred place, the grandeur and elegance of the decorative items, or the traditional clothing of the local girls visiting the mosque. Alana even dresses herself in a traditional garment of the local people but in a vibrant yellow color. The combination of a first-person perspective and a humorous tone, along with her mischievous expression, significantly contributes to creating her unique charm, making Love Alana Chan's vlog highly popular and entertaining.

2. The Travel Vlogger
This vlog belongs to Brian Cox, an intriguing young man showcasing his experiences and perspectives while traveling through short videos (under 2 minutes). Brian has traveled to over 40 countries (and lived in places like Costa Rica, Colombia, Spain, and even Australia). Thanks to that, he always has a variety of exciting activities to share, whether it's about the nightlife or suitable accommodations.

For him, 'Travel is the best education a person can have.' You not only learn more about the world and the people living in it, but most importantly, you can learn from yourself during the journey across the globe.
'Travel is the best education a person can have.'
After many years of vlogging, Brian Cox's approach to traveling has evolved. He admits that, initially, he would extensively research before a trip to identify worthwhile places to visit and activities to do.
But nowadays, Brian focuses on learning the logistics, the route from the airport to the hotel, and leaves room for authentic experiences when interacting with locals, admiring the scenery, and exploring the architecture at the destination. Certainly, this shift in approach has garnered him a large following, placing him second on the list.
Here's Brian Cox's experience visiting the Arc de Triomphe in France:
