I'm Jason, a full-time British Travel Vlogger and RUclipsr who's been to 60 countries. I've been travelling around the world full-time since 2017.
I have travel series' from many of the world's best (and least) known destinations. I filmed the first vlogs on my channel in the summer of 2016 after spending a year living in China. A proper solo trip around Eastern Europe followed after graduating from University in the summer of 2017, taking me to Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria, North Macedonia and Kosovo. This marked the start of my efforts to turn vlogging into a full-time job.
After that European trip I explored much of Asia: visiting India, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Pakistan, the Philippines, South Korea and Kazakhstan.
I have also travelled to North Africa and the Middle East fairly extensively over the last five years, filming videos in Turkey, Algeria, Tunisia, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Bahrain, Kuwait, Iraq, Jordan, Lebanon, Israel and Palestine.
I've travelled to North America just once as a RUclipsr, visiting Mexico in 2021. Though I have been to both the USA and Canada, this was as a child on family holidays.
In 2022, I took my first trip to Sub Saharan Africa, visiting Kenya and Tanzania, before heading to the Middle East, stopping in Dubai and Lebanon. Europe followed, covering both the Greek and Turkish sides of Cyprus, and afterwards going back to Italy for the second time to cover Milan and Sicily. I then visited the Caribbean for the first time, covering the Dominican Republic, before heading to both Brussels and Amsterdam, then covering Taiwan and the Philippines in Asia. I finished off the year with a trip around Morocco.
I started my travels in 2023 by finally visiting Paris, taking the Eurostar from London. I then headed over to Qatar for a few days, before heading to the south of India.

What i love about travelling in India which i do get in other countries which is not quite in the same level ...is the random situations that happen.. spontaneity of India ... The way people just come up to you and start talking to you about all kinds of things.. it's a never ending fun adventure thats so addicting and a country that I will continue to keep travelling to UNTIL THE DAY I DIE... Until I see every state .. every heritage site .. experience to the full each of this country s corners ....
-Jason billam
Awwww..😍😍....... Jason... The spontaneity with which you spoke this and emotions connected to it made me tear up!! Much admired !! May India always give you beautiful memories to cherish..!!
Great you are the first foreigner I have seen who is confident of what to look for in train journeys.
I'm a 63 year old man from the US. I traveled around the world last year and on one leg of my journey I took a non AC sleeper train from Varanasi to Agra. It was inexpensive as I remember at about 400 Rupees or just over $5 US (I believe that I received the Senior fare rate). I was the only foriegner on an EXTREMELY full train, as every seat was taken and every available square inch of floor space was occupied by a sleeping traveler. To be fair it was very soon after Varanasi's Dev Diwali Festival, which I'm certain contributed to the overcrowding. The journey was fine, I had my vinyl bed to myself. Not having AC was perfect as it was quite cold that night and I was dressed for it comfortably. Everything imaginable was offered for sale from something to eat, drink, to services. Shoe cleaners were busy and I enjoyed watching a young man repairing broken zippers on people's bags and jackets. Getting to the restroom was challenging, I had to walk on the lower tier seats in order to avoid the floor as it was wall to wall with the slumbering bodies of very tired worshipers. The restrooms were disgusting (their floors were an inch deep of sloshing mess). Thankfully I didn't need to enter.... I hit the toilet from the doorway. Except for the restrooms I enjoyed my 14 hours on the overnight train. The Varanasi train station is grand in its Indian colonial architecture and marble floors. It was also crowded and hectic but wasn't difficult to navigate to my platform. Every platform had shops where you could buy a variety of products. Arriving in Agra the next morning I stepped off the train right next to the magnificent Jama Masjid. A red Mosque built in the 1650's. Both cities were incredible.
Sir we ourselves book AC coaches.. it's quite affordable compared to hotels..
Seems like you had a great experience despite it being a journey in the non ac sleeper class during a holiday rush.
@@shubhounofficial5125 There were none available so I roughed it with thousands of others that night. It was an amazing experience.
I love India I don't know much about it, India is lucky to have precious movie stars like Aamir khan.Indians are pretty good at Software and know by heart the trigonometric values that most people do with a calculator. There are not only the poor area but also the ultra-rich areas in India. It possess the third largest economy in the world in terms of purchasing power parity. There is so much variety in India that I find it fascinating so everyone who goes there can find something for themselves. I love curry:)
I can't comment against their religious beliefs, it's the person's choice. Love from Türkiye 🇹🇷♥️🇮🇳
Enjoyed your selection of Indian music whilst showing the beautiful countryside at sunset. It certainly added to the atmosphere you wanted to portray. I think your series on India is my favourite of your vlogs so far - thank you.
That’s nice to hear. Thanks Maggie!
I really like the way British speak English. I wish fellow indians would speak as clearly and use more refined language as much as possible. But that seem like a distant dream. Those first generation politicians in india used to have this accent it was unique blend of indian and British accent. But it is lost now as 70 years have passed since independence.
english is not our language and english is india like poison for our cultures and i feel really proud when politicians dont choose to speak english and stick with their mother tongue. we have fought long first with islamic invaders and then with british bigots for our civilization. we are the only indigenous people in world who have saved their language,culture and land from uncultured british trash.
You have an enlightened soul. Good luck with your travel in India. I lived in London and Portsmouth for about 15 years and I loved traveling across Scotland, Ireland, England and Wales.
I love your love for India, your desire of discovering every corner of this amazing country.
Jason, traveling on the first class train is so much fun and comfortable I traveled on the first class train this year and loved it ;)
I like how you vlog. There is no stupid hyping of content, no excessive use of superlatives and the editing is pleasing. (Even the music wasn't the same generic ' India ' music).
Nice and quiet. 👍👍
I'm Japanese so if it dosen't make any sense sry. I found its interesting that how many people are actually interested in RUclips filming in India. I saw your other countries video and people's reactions are all different and depends on where you are. Thank you for taking us to different world.
I have recently travelled 1st class from Varanasi (the out of town station) to Delhi, 10 hour trip, with a friend on the upper berth, but on the opposite side the 2 berths were occupied by a family of 5, with a kid screaming throughout the night. A disaster, definitely not worth the money.
Before we took the train we were invited to wait in the waiting room for ''upper class gents'' for our train. The smelly toilet attached to that waiting room hasn't seen a good scrub in years
LOL. How was a family of 5 travelling in 1st class with 2 berths ? Maybe such things happen in England, not in India 2023
Why are you so negative 😅😅😅 can't find positive??
Jason, to operate the taps in the train, you push the bottom portion of the faucet up, and it releases water as long as you hold it there. Prevents water wastage, I suppose!
Paneer is not like cottage cheese its like mexican queso fresco hafd and crumbly. Both use vinegar to curdle the milk
Really enjoying this series Jason, keep up the good work! 😊
Press tap upwards to open release to close
Really enjoying your great travel videos. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your time!
Hi there
Traveled a lot in India
You need to go in person to railway station and get a tourist quota ticket.
You can not buy this online.
It’s easy that way to get none air con second class ticket.
Also book train tickets at least four or five days in advance.
Ticket agents will always say second class is full ,,,they get more commission by selling first class.
Makes sense. Thanks for the heads up!
I am very shy and I would be timid about approaching a foreigner from another country, just to make small talk. But Indians do not have inhibitions. That is great! The only thing I find odd is asking a total stranger for a selfie with them.
Very true, they just come up to you and start talking. It’s amazing to see how there’s no barriers like in the west (and refreshing).
We just assum if a guy is white and blonde, he definitely can be justin timberlake or maybe even Chris evans 🤣.
Brother its just the curiosity of having met a foreigners drives these innocent people to get a selfie as memorabilia 😃
Prices in the train and station are elevated so you can buy items like snacks/ cold drinks from shops outside station which are comparatively cheaper.
I don't want to share a room with friend or foe on any sleeper in the world. Since Indian Railways does not allow passengers to book a single room I'll stick to fast day trains like Vane Bharat and vista domes when I land in India next year..
At 14:06, Mr Jason, you would come across such taps frequently across India. It is not to be turned for water, but the tip of the tap should be pushed up for water to flow! As soon as you take off your hand, the tip of the tap which was pushed up, comes down and water stops flowing automatically. By the way, you didn't have any co-traveller?
You are the best Jason
Push the tap up to get water
Good list. You could add: travel towel, moist wipes for hand&face, travel cutlery, travel clothing, toiletries etc.
Another wonderful, informative video. I was just thinking if at the beginning you could add a map to show where we are and, if necessary, where we will be going.
Noted!
From Pompey UK,.. but
Wow, this vidvlog really took me back to 2005 and my first taste of wild wonderous whacky India,.. what a crazy maelstrom of a ride that first train journey is,.. mine was from Trivandrum to varkala
Fantastic content my friend
Aaron
😂I think you tried the unreserved coach to reach Varkala.
Nice
If you run out of toilet paper or see that there is no toilet paper
Call your coach/bogie attended
Beautiful sharing ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Throughly enjoying your adventures in India so far Jason thanks for sharing! Also would you ever go back to Egypt to Explore more of it?
I’m glad you’re respectful and avoid showing their faces!
Ah I like your vidio very much. I was also on that train, in opposite direction. Has been 25 years ago. Seems very much approved. Also Hampi and Hospet I advise to go!
if you like quiet places then North East India is nice for you. it is one of the real jewels of India undiscovered paradise among foreigners. people there look East Asian, full of tribes and great nature. although the culture has been changed due to half the population converted by Missionaries from UK and USA. still it is great place to visit. you will be surprised how clean it is and how simple the people are.
I need to get there at some point!
You make such good travel videos! I'm so glad I found your channel!
Happy you think so Anne!
Absolutely beautiful. very nice.
Um Did U Read That Book Jason?
Dear Jason, enjoy your trip to beautiful India. 🎶🎶Warm regards from beautiful Indonesia.

2:05 Tamilnadu is most authentic state in India as it is least amount invaded/ruled by outsiders. people there are very spiritual. trip to there will be culturally enriching. you will find lots of great architecture thousands of years old made by carving granite rocks. some of them been through invasions natural calamities and still standing.
It was called the Madras presidency under th British.
Mysore and Travancore were the unconquered Kingdoms. It had the highest literacy and HDI levels at the time of Independence.
Super
3:30 who is that guy and what did he say? I didn't understand a word.
@03:44 their concepts of 5000 is not true.... yugas r in larger timescale
you are quite a passionate India Traveller. obviously you would be because you have seen the authentic India in Kumbh Mela where beautiful people from villages all around India come and visit. whoever have experienced that will fall in love with the country.
Brilliant video as always, are you still in India?
Very interesting. I think the traffic noise would drive me crazy. Like your room. The silence is lovely. It is beautiful
Yes, Indians have an inexplicable but passionate love affair with the car horn.
Thanks for sharing
I was also recently a bit confused of the reservation system in Indian trains. The official website showed that I booked the last remaining place on the AC3 class and all travel agency websites showed that the train was fully booked. However, on the travel day I was the only person traveling in the train car! So did everyone else suddenly cancel or miss the train? Or how else all the websites showed that the train was fully booked when in reality it wasn't? We will probably never know😁 Anyway, I enjoyed my private ride through India
It can be confusing at times!
passengers might board from different stations that's why it shows booked
@@JasonBillamTravelyou're not kidding, India is mind-blowing,.. safe journey, your content is first class mush
This time please visit Kerala too ❤
Thank you for taking us along with you to India. Looking forward to more.
Try Vande Bharat Express👍
Thanks again John in Chicago
14:14 pull it up
staying at homestay is the best decision for foreigners in India for the best Indian experience. never stay at hotels in tourist places.
Hi Jason Wow I feel like I am actually traveling with you on the train such a good video.
Looks like alot of fun and adventure.
Cool to hear. Cheers Daniel!
You have to push that tap upwards then it's gone work😆
Taps need to be pushed from the bottom
Future prediction, you will meet Gabriel😅
Hampi express?
Very nice video
Her zaman yorum yapamasamda sizin video izlemek ğüzel başarılar
There are 4 seater on first class AC 😅😅😅😅
You amaze me and you are extreme brave - I can't wait till you r in my hood !
Why do you want to travel by sleeper class train? Just because its cheaper? I'm sure you know it'll be hot, uncomfortable & dirty. You may fall sick and end up spending a lot more money on hospital bills. You''ll not get any other 'experience'. Mahatma Gandhi always traveled in 3rd class train because he wanted to know how the common man traveled & lived and he hoped to bring notice to some authority who might be able to change the situation for them.
please visit Tamilnadu State in South India. Tamil Nadu's great places to visit are Madurai, Mamallapuram, Kanchipuram, Thanjavur, Rameswaram, Ooty, Kodaikanal. it is my favourite South Indian state if you visit you will absolutely love.
Nice country . Hi from Algeria ❤
Nice video izmir kemer altı 🇹🇷
Pls come to Kolkata and explore the town
I’ve been before (2019). I filmed three videos and then had my camera (and footage stolen). I’ll be back one day to try again!
@@JasonBillamTravel thank you sir
Bruh some Vietnamese number told me to Like this video for money I don't know what kind of Far reach program or promotion you guys are using but I feel scammed. Not sure whose fault is this.
Sorry, Jason, but you're going to alienate railway enthusiasts if you don't include footage of the locos hauling your train ;-)
