I'm Jason, a full-time British Travel Vlogger and KZbinr who's been to 55 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 KZbin 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 KZbinr, visiting Mexico in 2021. Though I have been to both the USA and Canada, this was as a child on family holidays.
So far in 2022, I've taken my first trip to Sub Saharan Africa, visiting both Kenya and Tanzania, before heading to the Middle East, stopping in Dubai and Lebanon. Europe followed, covering both the Greek and Turkish sides of Cyprus, and afterwards going back to Italy for the second time to cover Milan and Sicily. In the summer I visited the Caribbean for the first time, spending over a month in the Dominican Republic, before stopping in Belgium on my way home.
After shooting some videos in Taiwan, I made my way to the Philippines for the second time.

We visited Amsterdam for 10 days in June several years ago. Being older - in our 60's made the most of walking nearly everywhere and using trams as well. Vondelpark is a wonderful place to visit, with places to take refreshments and enjoy the scenery. Obviously sauntered down Bloemenmart. Enjoyed the "sport" of avoiding the cycle lanes, and open minded enough to appreciate those who prefer the coffee shops etc. Would happily visit again.

[@COMEINTOMYWORLD]

Amsterdam is a very beautiful city. I love the Begijnhof, right in the centre. A wonderful, historic enclave. A must see,

[@ramonschliszka6332]

Please don’t. Stay away from the Begijnhof please. People live there, it’s not an attraction.

[@shakesjg9923]

I'm actually surprised this is your 1st time in Amsterdam.. It's an awesome city to explore, with lots to see and do.

[@abbasalichinikamwalla7958]

I wished if you could show more about Amsterdam/Netherlands because your videos are down to earth. I visited Turkey after seeing your videos n the contents were realistic and appropriate. I adore watching your videos n am also inspired to visit those places. Your language does not have a typical Englandish/British accent but a simple/clear one that can be understood by one n all. Happy travelling n best of luck....🌹☺️

[@AlejandroDuran263]

Netherlands 🇳🇱 was one of the favorite places in the world 🌎

[@AlejandroDuran263]

Thanks

[@shandonsahm3343]

Yeppers 👍

[@timallison8560]

been 5 times, its extremely hard to beat the netherlands.

[@danielvalenzuela9764]

Hi Jason Nice place looks like a storybook with all the buildings. Interesting info you gave us of Anne Frank. Thank you for connecting back.your videos are very professional and so are your presentations. Cheers and Peace

[@spaghettistef]

Big temperature change from the Philippines but I know you’re going to have a great time in Amsterdam and at Bon Iver’s concert! Haven’t been there for ages but I have great memories from my first trip❤️ well done for another amazing video!

[@mylahbarreto5265]

Ha, I saw Bon Iver live a few years ago as well. Great music and show!

[@stephenzane1247]

Love your new jacket. Very stylish!

[@Shalamar-TV]

Cheers @ 10:05 // The Beer is on me !!! //

[@JasonBillamTravel]

Thank you! Very kind of you my friend!

[@thelonelyamazonian7039]

Hi Jason, a bit late to the Vlog….. It would of been really nice if you had more time to visit Denhaag (The Hague) as well. It’s where I grew up as a Child and where all my Family lives. Good Childhood Memories. ☺️ My Family are from Surinam 🇸🇷 (previously a Dutch Colony), in South America. 👍 May God, The Almighty bless you abundantly, wherever you go my dear Jason. Peace & Love 💙✌️🇬🇧

[@Musicwithsprites]

I love when people visit our cultural capital, thank you for visiting and hopefully you will come again 🇳🇱

[@Mazil_5]

Find a place to live, which is 1. nearly impossible, 2. very expensive if you find one

[@idirayouni5061]

@Oscar well its very hard to find a house and if you find a house the prices are pretty insane but the salary is also pretty high so doesnt really matter. i live in amsterdam and i wouldnt want to live anywhere else in the netherlands

[@sirquasi]

@Oscar Housing will definitely be the hardest part te get started the site funda will show you some options. Also make sure you buy a (cheap) bike (or rent a swap fiets) when you settle in. If you are planning to stay longer in the Netherlands make sure you learn Dutch, it will make it easier to integrate. Also if you want to make some Dutch friends (and step out of the expat bubble) join a (sports)club. Three important administrative things to arrange asap on arrival: 1) bankaccount 2) BSN (civic service number) 3) register at Amsterdam municipality.

[@ilaysener5239]

I live in the Netherlands and work in Amsterdam. I'm happy that you like our city! But I do recommend you talk to the people there to ask what you can do for activities. It may sounds weird but we are very much obliged to help you have a great day!

[@noodleswitheggandmunay]

Simple bicycles, beautiful city and beautiful music. I wish Davao was like this.

[@traveltheworldankreyol]

We love Amsterdam! We went pre KZbin. Enjoy!

[@Beckartwork2023]

Why even have cars! I want to visit there one day. I’m a new subscriber and I’m impressed by your travels. I’m also a new fan of the music you like! Happy Travels and be safe!

[@SwissVista2020]

Beautiful place. Enjoyed watching your video. Thank you very much for sharing with us your tour. Lot’s of love from Switzerland ❤❤❤

[@AubreyBeauford]

Loved it

[@Marenqo]

So crowded everywhere!

[@LoLa-ow8ff]

Nice country ❤️

[@dennisdaniels2992]

Hi Jason Billam, I hope you explore Amsterdam, Netherlands!

[@justjoyce4261]

Just planning to go to Amsterdam and i was looking for clips and I got this recent one nice

[@justjoyce4261]

@jasonbillam how can someone do that

[@pethcir]

Trams and bikes are plentiful but if you just wanna use two feet and a heartbeat, it's the most walkable city on earth. Beautiful layout with so much to see that RLD and coffeeshops are an afterthought. I recommend going in March-May, tulips are in full bloom and King's Day is an absolute blast at the end of April. I understand why so many ex-pats move to the Netherlands.

[@samogutu3458]

Stunning

[@liamcleary3704]

Hi Jason, brought back some memories was one of my old stomping grounds back in the late 80s through to the end of the 90s absolutely fantastic city bars were always packed to the roof every night with different artists etc, great place for shopping, enjoy your stay, and nice to see you back...

[@vetiverjohn8546]

I guess there's no copyright issues with showing your Bon Iver concert videos in this video? Glad you could attend the concert and enjoy Amsterdam!

[@zachtech5442]

I love amsterdam...but it is so cold in december...

[@Jpkjr52]

Wonderful Thanks again John In Chicago

[@WalkingTourAsia]

Back to Europe, very enjoyable video🇳🇱

[@joy-yd4jf]

Thank you for this beautiful vues I like 💫💙

[@missmia5468]

Amsterdam is one of my favourite European cities I visited. Very walkable and so pretty. The people that I came across were very friendly. Would love to go back. Will definitely make time to visit Anne Frank and the Van Gogh museum next time. Thanks Jason again for the video

[@missmia5468]

@jasonbillam wow thanks so much I will do that!

[@aditaruna7940]

Please come to Indonesia again. Jason. Please. 🙏

[@baojiawang1475]

Jason, thank you for your videos of Amsterdam . It is a beautiful city which I want to visit. maybe you can show us more interesting things about the Netherlands.

[@marioh5172]

Very good video.

[@bophaneanglin]

Great place! 👍

[@hilkoheuff]

Welcome to my country!

[@harrytoal1069]

I've been to Amsterdam twice. It's a very nice city and the people are very nice

[@hasibmunna313]

Watching from Bangladesh 🎉

[@mariohlmr]

Oh that must be a culture shock for you to see such a clean city. Just kidding my friend :D

[@IT-rj4gf]

Next time take the train and visit in Haarlem,. the Corrie Ten Boom museum.

[@jonassamy8771]

Amsterdam ❤

It tries to show what is good.. ❤️u jason

[@chockalingamalagappan1693]

The street,canal is a good location

[@Sarabjitsidhu94]

Hello sir

[@jsb7975]

Walking in A'dam is litterally walking in the 17th century. between 17th and beginning 19th century it was between the biggest and third biggest city in the world. Ofcourse from mid-19th century other European capitals took over and after Napoleon the city declined. Which is a Gods wonder; there was little renewing so now it's a historic museum that has been delivered to us now. Time-machine. nice video, really !

[@sgtscheetje]

If you appreciate the 17th century atmosphere, I would recommend Delft, Leiden and Dordrecht. They resemble Amsterdam, but smaller and they are less touristic. All three cities are easy to visit by train.

[@davisurdaneta1426]

Missin' Amsterdam. I was there 2 years ago after the first lockdown. I am so familiar with all these places. I stayed close to the RLD. People there are very welcoming compared most major cities in Europe.

[@dimabodnja1747]

always wondering how you manage not visiting cities in a stonethrow from UK while you've seen the most severe places in Algeria and other far countries))))

[@quranarabicacademyislamabad]

Good job

[@basharalhashimi6187]

Can anyone tell me something about Netherlands, its music and songs, its universities, its banks,its nature, its ethnicity and languages, its religions, its folk clothes and common food, its mosques and churches and synagogues, its tv series and cinema movies and theatre plays and broadcast series, its sports clubs and different teams in terms of medals espicially in football...I know that I can know all that from internet...but I want to hear from a native citizen...waiting to hear from you

[@AdventureAttitude]

Welcome to my hometown (originally)

[@vanderquast]

@Oscar I would advise you also to check out other places in The Netherlands, which is more then just Amsterdam. Check out Haarlem, Utrecht, Leiden, Den Haag, Delft, Amersfoort, etcetera. To my personal opinion as a Dutchman better places to live than Amsterdam, less touristic, better quality of living 😊

[@AdventureAttitude]

@Oscar yeah of course. I would second what Jacobus said. A daytrip to Zaandam is VERY recommended. And it is less then 20min by train. The city centre of Amsterdam has 100s of hotels, airbnbs and hostels. Have a great time

[@rumoaliberdade2024]

When did you go?

[@viniciusvoon8564]

Your camera had a blur vision. What is happening ???

[@TravelerYaser]

It does sound really strange to be from the UK and as a traveler never been to the Netherlands. Amsterdam is my least fav city in Holland.

[@elinall5345]

how is the human right situation in the netherlands? can you post youtube comments?

[@elinall5345]

@jasonbillam is this for real? what do you mean?

[@JacobPlat]

@@elinall5345 of course it is real🙄.

[@marcsteppi2192]

Are you crazy? The Netherlands are NOT Qatar or Iran

[@Mazil_5]

What a stupid question, if you really want to know, what’s keeping you from google?

[@JacobPlat]

@@Mazil_5 google?

[@samirche7213]

When will you return to Algeria?🙏

[@hermannlind6407]

Stating that Anne Frank and most of her companions "died" is certainly an understatement.

[@AC_Milan1899]

Hell on Earth

[@marjabeverwijk5630]

No in the Netherlands, "De Hel"-the hell- is a nature reserve near Veenendaal (of the Dutch Forestry Commission -staatsbosbeheer-) and "De Hel"-the hell- is also a hamlet in the municipality of Súdwest-Fryslân, in the Dutch province of Friesland. its located in the east of the village of It Heidenskip. But not in Amsterdam. And remember you are welcome (to visit), but also free to leave.

[@PorkHunt0]

I don't think you would be smoking weed 'legally' It is 'tolerated' though😉😁

Great video but terrible band. Very dreary sound. Though music is personal and we all can’t like the same bands.

[@tore705]

Charming but didn't see much racial diversity.

[@thisishousemusicNL]

It's no secret that Amsterdam is one of the most inclusive and diverse capital cities in the whole world. The city is home to 180 different nationalities!

[@sdtok527]

First off, he went to the more touristy places, those do not represent NL but NL tourists. Secondly, 25.2% of NL has a migration background. Meaning they or their parents are from another country. From 3rd generation onward the statistics bureau states that they have a Dutch background. More than a quarter of NL is first or second generation immigrant. Of which, 14.4 is non western. Third, you cannot base racial diversity on skin color or appearance alone.
