3 First-Time Vlogger Mistakes To Avoid | Best Leica Vlogging Tips
The very first video I shot as a travel vlogger was in India in August 2011. Back then I was simply a blogger and travel writer and I had no idea the part that YouTube would play in my life to be honest. Nor that vlogging would turn into one of my favorite past times in life.

I did my research and chatted with the guys at YL Camera, Malaysia’s largest camera retailer, for advice and decided on the Leica V-Lux for its video features and all-in-one 25-400mm zoom lens capabilities. It has been less than a week since I brought my new baby home and the quality of what it shoots is already so amazing … come check it out. (more…)

Letting your hair down returns you back to work refreshed and ready to battle through your day, and whilst you can prepare some for any pitfalls by getting some canada health insurance (or elsewhere!) beforehand, sadly, there are still some things you’ll have to look out for when travelling abroad.
