Thanks for this, it’s fascinating. I’m a photographer and would love to combine that with travelling. I’m going to Costa Rica in February and can’t wait. Happy Days x

[@juanmarcelandrhylan]

Photography definitely has a ton of potential avenues for income!! Including shooting for resorts / activity providers, affiliate marketing through a travel blog & even getting involved in test shooting for models in the fashion industry! Hope you absolutely love Costa Rica, we LOVE it there!! 🤍🤍

[@The_Cptn_Louk]

Amazing information guys! So STEP 1: Build an audience

[@ShannonQT85]

Been fun watching your channel continue to grow and that you still are always being so authentic and real....and that you keep interacting with your subscribers as well. One question I have though is how complicated are paying taxes for you guys? I have a traditional job but I also have a small business that is just extra income for me and I have a CPA help me with it and even then it's a ton of bookkeeping to be on top of haha. So just makes me wonder how complicated taxes would be for you guys.

[@juanmarcelandrhylan]

Thank you so much for the kind words, it really means a lot to us 🤍 and to answer your question.. taxes are a nightmare for us at the moment 😂 we have to show proof for all of the things we write off - and since we operate as an LLC, almost all of our travel expenses are tax write offs. So it’s a ton of book keeping (we aren’t very good at it, and taxes take FOREVER hahaha) definitely going to be one of our first hires when we can.

[@isagoldenjewels]

Thanks guys What camera do you use and/ or recommend?

[@juanmarcelandrhylan]

Up to this point we have used the Canon Powershot G7X mark iii 🥰 but we just recently upgraded to a Fujifilm Xh2s. Would definitely recommend both!!

[@stevenponte6655]

Good on you guys for being so open and transparent about the income sources. Do you think will continue traveling like this forever or move back to the US eventually?

[@micazev]

guys, talk more about modeling! feliz ano novo 🇧🇷

[@juanmarcelandrhylan]

Any specific questions you have about it? Would be happy to consider this as a future video ❤️

[@micazev]

@@juanmarcelandrhylan you could approach as any video about freelancing: how to get into modeling, what you have to learn to get into the market, the avarage payment, how to grow in this kind of business...

[@isagoldenjewels]

Could you do a video on how to edit videos? And tips on creating great content Thanks ❤

[@juanmarcelandrhylan]

Could definitely look into doing this someday! Even thought about dropping a course someday on how exactly we plan, film & edit all of our content. Would that ever interest you?

[@isagoldenjewels]

@@juanmarcelandrhylan 100% 🫶🏻🙌🏼

[@kylakailuatravel]

I love that I found you guys about a month ago! I have a question: what camera do you use to blog with?

[@juanmarcelandrhylan]

So happy that you found us 🥹💓 and up to this point we have used a canon Powershot g7x mark iii - but we recently upgraded to a more powerful 4k capable camera 👀 it’s the Fujifilm Xh2s. We haven’t filmed a video on it yet, but it is AMAZING!!

[@kylakailuatravel]

@@juanmarcelandrhylan thanks so much for the information 🙏🏾

[@TravelingTulipsNL]

Thank you for sharing this with us!

[@AdrianasWonderland]

my dream is to earn money this way and be my own employee, creating content is hard but I'm doing my best, wonderful video, thank you for it

[@juanmarcelandrhylan]

It’s definitely harder than most people think, but it is incredibly fun and fulfilling ❤️ you can do it!! We believe in you 🥰

[@AdrianasWonderland]

Thank you so much

[@franparker4103]

This is super helpful and a dream of mine one day. Just returned from 6 months travelling South America and for sure have the travel bug now! Can't wait to go away again and maybe one day make it a career. One question is do you have any advice for staying on top of posts? Do you guys follow a schedule? I really find it difficult posting and I am about 4 months behind on posts haha. Thanks again! :)

[@juanmarcelandrhylan]

Ooh that’s amazing!! Once you get that Travel Bug, there’s no going back 😩 hahaha. As for your question, consistency is definitely super important - especially in the beginning of your content creation career. Even when no one was watching, we held ourselves accountable to once per week on KZbin & three times per week on IG & TikTok. This is mostly just for YOU to get into the flow and really get comfortable with the whole process. As well as earning those first subscribers & supporters.

[@franparker4103]

Thanks so much for responding! Super helpful ☺️

[@izabelarocha7077]

Are Ruan and Rhylan ok? Don't stop traveling and recording videos, going through a deep desert for 1 year and a half due to a divorce, watching you gave me hope again, something that I love doing and that I want to continue believing that I can travel. You have no idea how videos heal me, numb my pain and sadness and put a smile on my face, they remind me of reasons to dream again. And besides all that, I'm taking the opportunity to learn to speak English by watching the videos with English subtitles too! God bless you! And may you become more like Jesus Christ every day! A kiss! Isabella. Ruan e Rhylan tudo bem? Não parem de viajar e gravar os vídeos, passando por deserto profundo a 1 ano e meio devido a um divorcio assistir você me trouxe esperança de novo, algo que amo fazer e que quero continuar acreditando que poderei viajar. Vocês não tem noção do quando os vídeos me curam, entorpecem minha dor e tristeza e coloca um sorriso em meu rosto, me trazem a memória os motivos para voltar a sonhar. E além de tudo isso, estou aproveitando para aprender a falar inglês assistindo os vídeos com a legenda em Inglês também! Que Deus os abençoe! E que cada dia mais vocês se assemelhem a Jesus Cristo! Um beijo! Izabela.

[@thaisb279]

You are so quite! I wish more and more for you! Kisses from Brasil 😘

[@juanmarcelandrhylan]

Thank you so much ❤️❤️

[@diegocaleiro]

how much money do you spend per month overall? including plane tickets, health whatever, hotels, food, all of it, what's your total monthly expenditure as travel vloggers?

[@juanmarcelandrhylan]

Great question! It varies wildly depending on the destination that we are traveling to for the month. But we’d say we spend anywhere from 4-8k a month on average between Airbnb’s, food cost, activities, business expenses & flights. With some months being significantly above or below that range.

[@Nikki.L.L]

Would love to earn like this honestly. It does take dedication and commitment ❤️ thank you for sharing these methods to us

[@juanmarcelandrhylan]

Thank you for watching ❤️ you can do it! We believe in you 🥰

[@majas841]

If you guys close your eyes the girl sounds like Blake Lively!!!😮❤

[@SavingtoInvest]

Nice video and appreciate the transparency. Some other revenue sources or cost offsets to consider 1. Paid sponsorships at hotels/resorts. You get a fully paid holiday and they can leverage your authenticity for reviews. 2. 1-1 consultation for places you have been. Easily 150+ p/hr and can eventually become your digital content. 3. Incorporate as a business and all your travel, expenses and equipment is tax deductible (which you may already be doing). Keep traveling and vlogging in 2024!

[@juanmarcelandrhylan]

Hey! These are all fantastic, we've definitely done #'s 1 & 3. But, #2 is a new idea that we haven't even considered. Thank you so much for bringing it to our attention! Hopefully other people reading the comments can get inspired by your comment as well 😍

[@rodart1945]

Do you not need to have a substantial amount of followers to make money with affiliate marketing??? Thank you so much for sharing this content and being transparent. How long did you take to get to this stage?

[@juanmarcelandrhylan]

With Travelpayouts (the brand we spoke about in the video) you can get started right away - with no requirements in terms of audience size. All that matters is that you have some sort of blog or travel content to promote the affiliate links on. The amount of money you make is dependent on how many sales you convert with your links. So for that reason, a bigger audience will usually = more money from affiliate marketing. But some people make more with a smaller audience, because they have a highly engaged community, and are in a hyper specific niche. Either way, our biggest tip is to always be authentic & never promote anything that you wouldn’t personally vouch for!

[@rodart1945]

Thank you for your response
