[@banikawazir]

It's so refreshing to finally see a youtuber being so honest and transparent with their viewers.... loved this video

[@TanyaKhanijow]

Thank you so much for your kind words! 😊

[@banikawazir]

💞💞

[@sudhanshututi]

I really appreciate you for choosing authentic brands instead of promoting unethical betting/crypto apps.

[@odin3433]

Exactly most of the indian vloggers promotes winzo/Binomo etc. But I have never seen Tania promoting such cheap apps just for money. Bhagwan bless her ♥️

[@DesiWanderingSouls]

Totally agree

[@explorewithkokanicouple]

I am also a youtuber and i love her vlogs. She is motivating all

[@Side_Schools]

Traveling - it leaves you speechless, then turns you into a storyteller.

[@AshriniBorah-ts1eo]

So true.

[@akhandpratapsingh17]

Damn

[@shubhangisrivastava6654]

She is a very learned youtuber. There are very less indian KZbinrs who've this level of knowledge. I have seen her since the start..story telling comes naturally to Tanya. She is very very versatile. I am currently a student president at my university in US and I ain't joking, my confidence comes from Tanya

[@Kodeispoetry]

True.

[@TanyaKhanijow]

That is so sweet! Wishing you more confidence and success in life. ❤️

[@jyotiirhooda]

Completely agree

[@kelvin33034]

True. This detailing, I never got to see among other youtubers. This works for any other field in the KZbin sector

[@puneetyadav9112]

wow@@TanyaKhanijow

[@hrishikeshkumar4633]

The only half an hour video I can watch without cranking up the playback speed. Thanks Tanya for breaking down everything

[@officialmeenakshipandey]

dear tanya, no matter what you do, someone will always be unhappy! So, lets just listen to those people who really appreciate your work. And it is very important to earn money from brand promotions, because we have to survive in this era.

[@Keifi8]

You are honest in your work and it shows in your work. Keeping doing good work.

[@puneetyadav9112]

wowwwwwwwwwwwwww

[@paragbhore2077]

​@@Keifi8❤

[@nitikagupta3662]

It's brave of you to give a detailed aspect of your earning..not many people do that!!

[@Siddology]

The difference in "My Channel" and "Our Channel" is what shows the growth of the person.

[@wilsons2882]

we should thank tanya as how she singlehandedly carries wonderful travel vlogs around her shoulders. she definitely has contributed to looking at India differently from her lens and the vlogs are aesthetic and pleasing and is definitely one of the reasons to be on KZbin. the content is great and she looks effortless in doing her best. I think she has earned 1.2 m subs and her rise on the tube is no wonder a great thing to look up Indian vlogs or so i think.

[@user-ov2eq9lr4n]

It's so good of you tanya , that you talked about the sponsored trips , You are being transparent to your audience which alot of creators don't do.

[@pholonpansa8570]

Best learnt youtuber ever.. With such a humble and dedicated person 💗 Lots of love from Arunachal Pradesh

[@Dr.Seemajamwal]

Basically youtube is a 24 x 7 job..where there is no job security....Hats off to you young creators

[@utkarshthakur3738]

I can't say money doesn't matters but the experiences and the happyness you get while traveling was enough to survive, great job and love your content ❤️

[@lalesharma98]

One of the reasons for me viewing your channel is the presence of an element of honesty in it. You once again affirm that faith here. Stay blessed Tania.

[@tulikagautam7277]

No one has ever made this honest video on this topic. You are the best.

[@aagatdabral5271]

Massive respect for your honesty and handling the challenges with pure class!

[@nehapajni]

Proud of you, young lady. I've often wondered on how this works and you have explained this brilliantly. Keep up the good work and stay safe.

[@904081]

One of its kind..Keep exploring and give honest tips and tricks for people all over the world regarding travel.

[@Globaljaggi]

this was totally unfiltered! thankyou so much tanya for sharing this with all of solo travellers out there or wanting to be :)

[@abhinavsharma103]

Your honesty and transparency is appreciable.

[@wherewinnersdare4399]

Honesty in your conversation is Rare and worth appreciating. U will go places. Literally!👍

[@farhannoor24]

You're one heck of a speaker and a content creator. God bless!

[@destressandmotivation9656]

I have 10yrs of travel under my belt!!...It started way way back in the late 90's early millennium years!

[@perfectchyne2822]

After watching your videos, I start traveling solo, thanks for your videos.....

[@mridusmita84]

You are so detail oriented and honest! Loved this video!❤

[@maltimurmu8869]

I have been watching you since 4 yrs.... congratulations for gold play button...you are very inspiring

[@DiligentRohit]

I am watching you since last 5 years .. You gave a positive vibes

[@RishirajSharma]

It's so good to see Taniya when she is a leader in the travel industry. I have been watching her since she has 73k subs. And now she is a giant in her domain.

[@inteospective]

Thank god! You made this video Tanya... my cousin has a travel channel, and she is tired of explaining peoples' question ki paise kaha se aa rahe hai content banane ka and people don't understand sponsorships kaise kaam karta hai

[@TanyaKhanijow]

Oh I’m so glad to hear that your cousin is doing this. Also, that the video helped in some way. Feel free to share this with your relatives. ❤

[@gshadeyshadow]

So proud of you. Thankyou for being so honest and sharing every little detail about traveling and how can one make this as a career ❤

[@beautykundu5333]

i didn't even skip a single part of this video. So amazing

[@sakbhu001]

hey Tan! I think you are the first youtuber i've come across who has come out transparent with their revenue.. Trust me, it was so useful.. God speed and Good luck..stay blessed!.

[@nityaaggarwal912]

Hats off to The Content Creators.. Mesmerized!! All the best for journey ahead. Hope you get something which you not even ever dreamt of. Kuddos to the ownership one takes for their dreams 😊

[@nautitraveller]

Have been watching your content on and off since 2018. I do not know how you are getting hate and bashing but the videos I have seen through youtube recommendations project you as an honest individual. You are very open and honest about your journey not only as a traveller but also as a creator. The way you have been able to maintain the quality of your content is also something to learn from. Fortunately, I haven't seen those videos where you get hate and bashing for not being honest. But keep going, keep growing. I think that is the only way to overcome shortcomings.

[@ayushkumardash0133]

It feels great to have such a positive comment section

[@himank7288]

I have seen most of travel KZbin but i think you are one of the genuine person of openion ...👍 and i like genuine guy..❤

[@niveditarudra]

How beautifully describe the problem of audience about Ads. That's why you are tanya. You are always down to earth human and I love your video for that.

[@think_possitive]

You are the result of consistent dedicated hardwork...never give up

[@saikat_travel]

Dear Tanya, I am comperatively a new follower of yours and I become a fan instantly. I love traveling, but obviously it is difficult to travel all the places, all the time with a middle class income. With your videos, I can see the world! Thanks for doing this. I follow many other travel bloggers, they are equally good in their ground, but no one can tell a story like you do! You create a whole new story to each of the places and it creates a very warm, vibrant and ever lasting feeling on heart! Whenever I feel little down, I watch your travel blogs, it may be somewhere in Kashmir or Arunachal Pradesh or showing the aurora in the sky - every video makes us happy! lived! and we travel along with you around the world. You may never know how much you make the impact. Keep going and keep showing us the beautiful world around us.

[@apoorvadube]

Thanks a lot, Tanya!! You gave a holistic picture of what takes to be a content creator in KZbin.

[@TheCapturedPixels]

This was so helpful Tanya! Loved how you were real and raw here. This one's a great video for travel creators like us. The audience should understand that the sponsored content is there to create awareness and some very well-deserved earning. Very few people acknowledge the effort behind content creation.

[@TanyaKhanijow]

Thank you so much!!

[@puneetyadav9112]

wow@@TanyaKhanijow

[@Das1]

​@@TanyaKhanijowBf ke travelling karche, kon deta hae?

[@lifewithgirish]

hello there, Tanya I just had to take a moment to applaud and celebrate the amazing adventures you embark on as a travel woman. Your passion for exploration, courage to step out of your comfort zone, and determination to experience the world firsthand are truly inspiring.Through your journeys, you have not only discovered new places but also unlocked the hidden treasures within yourself. Your ability to connect with different cultures and people, fostering understanding and compassion, is a remarkable gift that not everyone possesses. You are not just a traveler; you are a true trailblazer, an advocate for breaking stereotypes, and an inspiration to countless others who dream of seeing the world but hesitate to take the first step. Your journey encourages us all to pursue our passions relentlessly and embrace the beauty and diversity this world has to offer. Thank you for sharing your adventures and letting us be a part of your incredible voyage. Keep exploring, keep growing, and keep being the amazing travel woman that you are!

[@TravelShootIndia]

I can't get over how stunning the landscapes are. You show them well you deserve to earn money

[@radhikagujrati9111]

I like how honest and transparent you share the information.

[@Rajukumar-en2nv]

Your video never dissappoints. Great as always.

[@pranabthakur1]

You always surprise me with your sheer honesty. Very few travel bloggers shall encourage others and explain how to start travel blogging . Being a solo traveller i always get inspiration from you .

[@UrvishShah03]

Subscribed! I haven’t seen any of your other videos yet. But I like your genuineness and honesty. You are a natural!

[@MainAnmolHoon]

Tanya, this video is genuinely a great video. Lots of information and in pointers. Great job.

[@AddictiveTadka]

Video was nice and raw. It seems it is coming straight out of your heart. Never really thought that you can take things personally. The fact that you were raw and speaking right out from your heart proves how passionate you are. Also you are one of the youtubers who reads the comments and responds which means you really take your community seriously. Hope to meet you someday and travel 🙂

[@adwitiagarwal2332]

You're truly inspiring and I felt glad that Im coming across individuals who are so honest and passionate. With the endless content on the net, there are very few channels that seem worthwhile. Thankyou, keep up the faith.

[@mittan_choudhary01]

This is the most insightful video for travel lovers Thanks tanya❤

[@iamkartiksetia]

Thanks for being honest Tanya. Really Helpful

[@madgulkar]

Appreciate your honest video - rightly articulated 👍🏽 I call you as travel motivator 😀 more than KZbinr

[@anilgandhi]

You are honest and ambitious, keep up the good work.

[@sabyasachipal7116]

I was searching for tourist spots in Shillong and found your video that was uploaded 5 years back , it was very informative and found you to be very jolly and good person. But then I browse your channel and found the future and saw that you had learned a lot about life. God bless you.

[@shlokpratap9825]

Thank you Tanya... U've no idea how much crazily I've been binging your vlogs for months now and learning the mathematics of filming a video... All of us are here to support you in every way possible... Keep growing and teaching us❤️

Really informative 👍🏼 Good to see you connect with your audience too 😊

[@sabyasachibanerjee124]

Your advice, approach and attitude is spot on. I have noticed the evolution and really admired it. Change as they say is a "necessary evil". But hey! We still get to see chunks of the world where we never might have thought of. And who know, may actually end up visiting one day. Keep traveling, keep smiling and keep inspiring! I'm sure a few budding vloggers will gather the courage and fledge their wings watching your no-nonsense videos

[@26netra]

This video is sk genuine and informative...a real eye opener to so many questions about content creation. How does one travel as a passion...omg so nice

[@SanskritiRamtek]

Appreciate your insights into the efforts behind content creation & highlighting the commitment to meaningful connections with the audience.

[@Karabibindu]

Tanya you are the one who inspired me to start travelling 3 years back. But unfortunately I couldn't make it. I belong to a remote village and there were so many things going on at that time when I started. I couldn't I just couldn't. I made only 1 travel vlog then and didn't upload yet. I had to change my route. Today I'm a SSC. Aspirant I've 24k subs. I started this channel randomly 1y back and it's working fine, I'm getting things that I wanted to get 3y back through travelling and travel content making. I'm happy for myself but still deep down inside I want the life you are living. Everytime I take my tripod (bought 3y back on your recommendation)to shoot my content I remember the purpose behind buying this. I don't know whether I can make it or not but I'll try again. Tanya thank you dear❤ for keeping my dream alive.

[@TravelingEddie]

Thanks 🙏🏻 a lot Tanya. You keep going strong 🇮🇳💪🏻. I'll be traveling India soon.

[@subhartheedey1961]

Honest vlog. Really appreciate to disclose the behind the scenes of a travel vlogger.

[@musedmusings]

That was so power-packed. A great insight for the upcoming content creators. Please make more such videos. And I can't even begin to imagine how much of back to back planning and shooting must be required to keep up with uploading content and travelling at the same time. More power to you. Keep growing. ❤🌱

[@KiaraAndTheBudgies]

Thanks Tanya for sharing such useful insight 👍. I really admire your courage & honesty in sharing these detailed info, which is very rare to come along on YT. You are doing great, keep it up 👍.
