About Angela Carson
Hello 🙂
For 25 years, I’ve worked in digital marketing, branding, and social media.
As a travel and hospitality digital marketing expert, I’ve worked for or collaborated with over 100 hotels, restaurants, and tourism brands since 2011! I’ve helped to re-brand them, manage their social media, train their teams to maximise social media & video, and shoot videos for them.
- I worked for Guns N’ Roses as the head of social media, touring with them in India
- I'm a travel and features contributor to Asian Correspondent, Condé Nast Traveller, MAXIM, Esquire, FEMALE
- I'm a passionate content creator. Many of my own videos rank #1 on YouTube, including for RIMOWA, Bangkok Airways, W Hotel, Marriott, Four Seasons, Leica
- I've toured with the talented Chinese pop star G.E.M. as her head of communications
My Travel Channel
Aside from writing, sharing travel videos has fast become my favourite hobby. My channel is small, just 52k subscribers and 7 million views, but it’s my little home on YouTube to share Asia with anyone who would like to follow along.
About My Personal Journey
At 21 I left uni, jumped into my Jeep Wrangler, and drove from my native California to live in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico (read about that adventure here). The next year I bought a 1-way ticket to Europe and ended up in a picturesque seaside village south of Barcelona, Spain. That’s where my daughter was born and it’s the place my heart still calls home. In total, I’ve lived in 9 countries across 3 continents. In 2016, I left 9-to-5 life and started my own consulting business.
As of 2020, I’ve travelled 36 countries, have 2 active blogs, and I’m currently working on my first non-fiction book about the 3 years my daughter and I lived in Bangalore, India.
