I'm Jason, a full-time British Travel Vlogger and YouTuber who's been to 53 countries. I've been travelling around the world full-time since 2017. So far, my trips have taken me to Asia, Africa, Europe, the Middle East and the Americas.
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 trip marked the start of my efforts to make a YouTube full-time job.
After that European trip I went heavily into exploring Asia, visiting India, Bangladesh, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Vietnam, Cambodia, Thailand, Pakistan, the Philippines, South Korea and Kazakhstan (seeing me cover a lot of Far East and Southeast Asia in particular).
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, Israel and Palestine.
To date, I have not yet been to Australasia or South America. Though I am hoping to visit the latter sometime in 2022, along with a first stop in the Caribbean.
I've travelled to North America just once as a YouTuber, 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 both Kenya and Tanzania, before making my way to the Middle East, stopping in Dubai on my way to Lebanon.

A Day Trip to Baalbek || Lebanon Travel Vlog
In this video I take local transportation on a day trip to Baalbek, Lebanon, some of the world's largest and most intact Roman Ruins. I see the Temple of Jupiter and Temple of Bacchus.
Just 42 miles from modern day Beirut, and right on the border of Syria is Baalbek, the former city of Heliopolis. The ancient Roman complex is home to two of the grandest remaining Hellenistic Temples, the Temple of Jupiter and the Temple of Bacchus. The region has been settled by humans for thousands of years, but it was in the first century AD that these incredible feats of architecture were constructed. The Temple of Jupiter was built to the Roman Sky God while the slightly smaller, but more complete Temple of Bacchus was devoted to Dionysus, the god of wine and music. I felt so small as I walked through the remains of these glorious tributes to ancient Roman Architecture, and I practically had the entire complex to myself. This was one of my best day trips in Lebanon, and here’s how it went….

12 Unbelievable Ancient Wonders
From Machu Pichu an amazing work of architecture to the mysterious caveman buildings in the mountains of Russia.

6. Stonehenge
One of the most well-known ancient mysteries is the monument of Stonehenge, located in the English county of Wiltshire. This is built in a circle using extremely large rocks standing up vertically and is believed to have been built about 2500 BC. One of the biggest rocks found at this site is about 30 feet tall and weighs about 25 tons. What’s truly strange about this is, the closest place they could have gotten the stone from was a quarry about 20 miles away to the north. People at this time, considered the land to be sacred due to fact the abundance of game meat available here. Many theories are out there trying to explain why it was constructed and acted as a symbol of unification, while others believe it was a religious site. Some claim it was built with ball bearings like you see in this photo.
5. Gobekli Tepe
Archaeologists came across a startling discovery six miles from Urfa, an ancient city in southeastern Turkey when they dug up massive carved stones believed to be 11 thousand years old. These were made when mankind had yet to develop metal tools or even pottery. The Smithsonian questions whether or not it’s the world’s oldest temple. It predates stonehenge by about 6,000 years. This location would have been a Mecca for hunters and gatherers at that time, centuries before farming was developed. As they dug deeper, they realized it was arranged in a circle, made of limestone blocks. Using only flint tools workers shaped the stone into pillars before moving them a few hundred yards to the site of the temple.
4.Easter Island
Many of us think of Easter Island and a tiny little place in the Pacific off the coast of Chile with mysterious heads sticking out from the ground. You have never known that these mysterious wonders get even more mysterious. These were constructed around the years 1250-1500 BC, by people of Polynesian ancestry. Recent discoveries like you see in this photo, prove that these actually have bodies attached to their heads! As people began to dig deeper, they uncovered that the statues fo much deeper than previously thought. They’ve also exposed carvings on their backs and their meanings have yet to be uncovered. Some believe it represents the traditional tribal of their culture.
3. Bosnian Pyramid
Many wouldn’t come to Bosnia and expect to see a pyramid. It’s possibly that because it wasn’t discovered until 2005. If the claims are real, the Bosnian Pyramid would be 25000 years old and the oldest pyramid ever built. Archaeologists are extremely skeptical of this because it defies accepted history. If you take a close look at it, it truly takes the form of a man made structure. Many want these extraordinary claims to be backed up by extraordinary evidence before it is accepted among the archaeology community. If it is real, it does deserve a place on our list. Take a look for yourself and let us know what you think in the comment section. Were there advanced civilizations in this area that we didn’t know of?
2. Machu Picchu
This is an incredible work of architecture in the middle of the Andes Mountains and shows what kind of feats the Inca Civilization was capable of. There are a few reasons archaeologists believe it was built. Some claim it was a ceremonial site, a military stronghold or even getaway for the ruling elite. Despite not having advanced warfare technology like some of their foes, they still excelled in knowledge pertaining to agriculture, architecture and astronomy. Many of these well crafted stones cannot even be penetrated with a knife, proving how well the stones fit together.
1.Great Pyramids of Giza
There is no other wonder of the ancient world quite as mysterious as the ancient pyramids of Giza. No other monument has created so much intrigue other that these feats of engineering that we still couldn’t reproduce to this day. It’s estimated that there’s a total of 2.3 million limestone blocks that weigh at least 2-30 tons each and is precisely aligned with the constellation of orion. The paste used to combine the stones is from an unknown origin and even with all our technology, we cannot reproduce it’s chemical compound. It remained the world's tallest building for 3,800 years and each side is the same length within 10th’s of an inch. All of this was supposedly constructed without the technology of the the wheel or without metal tool. The quarry used to get the stones was at least 500 miles from the location of Giza. It almost appears as though humans could not have succeeded in completing these structures without help from out of this world.

BAALBEK, Lebanon | Middle East
BAALBEK
#baalbek #lebanon #middleeast
Just 10 kilometers from Syria, we begin our journey along the road to Damascus. Refugee camps take over the landscape; a constant reminder of the human devastation that plagues the region. With each passing kilometer, the feeling of helplessness in the face of so much misery grows stronger.
But our primary objective for this journey was to explore the ruins of the city of Anjar, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Built in the 700s by Caliph Walid I, Anjar served as a commercial hub between Lebanon and Syria, situated halfway between Beirut and Damascus.
From here, we head to the main destination of the day… BAALBEK
You've probably heard of Baalbek from the news... and not for good reasons.
This territory is technically hostile, a stronghold of Hezbollah, the Party of God that controls the Bekaa Valley where Baalbek is located.
Yellow flags hanging on streetlights, posters of party leaders, undercover agents and armed soldiers everywhere - there's no doubt, this is the heart of Hezbollah territory.
Maybe that's why many people don't dare to set foot in Baalbek.
But us? We do things the other way around... that was reason enough for us to come here!
But that's not the real reason we came here... we came to see the most incredible ruins you can imagine.
Forget Rome or Athens... the best Roman ruins in the world are right here!
Baalbek is another region that was occupied by Phoenicians, Romans and Ottomans.
Here, they built the Temple of Jupiter on top of the Temple of Baal, considered the most ornate and impressive religious building in the history of the Roman Empire.
And then, in the 600s AD, the Muslims came and occupied the area, adding a mosque!
The city has survived the centuries and the wars that have passed through it, and it’s these ruins, even though they are not in perfect condition, that are truly incredible!
Everything is monumental and gives an idea of the greatness of what once existed there.
Baalbeck is home to what may have been the largest Roman temple in the world, Yes that is correct…the Temple of Jupiter.
Just standing next to its six main columns makes you feel like the most insignificant being on the planet.
To give you an idea, the supporting stone blocks are more than twice my height!
And it also has the largest standing temple in the world: the Temple of Bacchus, which is even bigger than the Parthenon in Athens!
But it's not just the size that impresses: the intricate details, from depictions of Bacchus to Phoenician designs, left us speechless!
it's just glourious to sit down and observe a game of light and shadows, taking us back into the glorious past of the Roman Empire.
We wandered through the ruins almost alone, trying to piece together the past, being able to stop, sit, reflect, and also of course, take the photos we wanted without crowds...
Only us, the wind blowing between the columns and the sun reflecting on the millennial constructions, making this place imposing, intense and overwhelming...
To many, these may be just ruins, but for us, Baalbeck is much more... here you can feel the history, the past, and that's magical!
In the city of Baalbeck, there is also a Shia temple called the Sayyida Khawla Shrine, which differs from a mosque because it is also a sacred mausoleum.
The Sayyida Khawla Shrine, the resting place of the daughter of Imam Hussein and great-granddaughter of the Prophet Muhammad, is one of those places that will stay with us forever...
As with all Muslim places of praying, I had to wear a chador and enter through the women's only entrance, separating myself from my husband and guide. But any discomfort I felt quickly disappeared when I stepped inside and was surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of Islamic architecture, full of intricate details and shimmering light!
But there was something more... something I couldn't quite explain... an energy in the air that surrounded us and brought us peace!
Upon leaving, we learned even more about its history... after the assassination of Imam Hussein in Karbala Iraq, his women and children were taken captive and forced to march on camels without saddles or shade towards Damascus.
Khawla was only three years old, and it is said that her martyrdom was a result of the long and arduous journey that left her exhausted and led to her death. Her tomb is located in the center of the shrine in a kind of cage made of gold and silver, with a huge crystal chandelier hanging above it.
But what really draws attention is a giant tree that pierces through the roof of the building. It is said that Imam Zainal Abidin planted a small branch here to mark the grave. Over the years, the branch has grown into a 1,400-year-old giant tree.
