Traveling & experiencing the world. Getting to know people, places, food, culture.

I’m Ken Abroad – a full-time traveler on a mission to explore the world, one country at a time. I’ve spent years traveling through Asia, and now I’m expanding to new continents and cultures, always with the same goal: to show you what life is really like in every corner of the world.

I strive to learn the most about each country, experience their culture, eat their food, see how they live, witness their daily life, learn about their work, get to know what they believe in and understand their perspective of life.

πŸ”΄I AM HIRING πŸ”΄

I am looking for a YouTube Story Producer (for Travel Content)

I am searching for someone who helps me plan and structure my long-form travel videos before filming.

Your job is to turn a destination into a clear story plan:
– developing an engaging story for the video
– video title ideas
– writing a structured intro (setup, goal, problem, question)
– scene-by-scene outlines with goals & problems

You must understand long-form YouTube storytelling, retention, and narrative structure.

If you do not know concepts like story arcs, narrative structure, or the Harmon's Story Circle, this role is not a good fit for you.

Remote Β· Part-time Β· Freelance (per video)

If this sounds like you, apply via the form below πŸ‘‡
forms.gle/Pn47MQc3zSnkdzwP7

PS: Don't use Chatgpt to answer the questions, it's easy to spot and won't help as the next round for suitable applicants will be a live interview. I need someone with a real understanding of storytelling and not just asks chatgpt.

I wish you all a great start to the new year, and an amazing 2026!

Thank you all for being part of my journeys here on YouTube or on other platforms you follow me on. 2025 has been an incredible year for me as a content creator, with a total of 1.2 billion views on my content across all platforms.

I cleary remember the times a few years ago, when I had just a few hundred subscribers and getting 100-200 views maximum per video. Sometimes it still feels like I am dreaming now. None of this would be possible without your support, so a huge thanks to you πŸ™

In 2025, we visited many cool places:

- Saudi Arabia
- UAE
- Qatar
- Japan
- Taiwan
- USA
- Mexico
- Indonesia
- Malaysia
- Singapore
- Brunei
- Philippines

Which series was your favorite to watch?

My personal travel highlights in 2025 were the trip with my mom and Lisa, my girlfriend, at the beginning of the year, and visiting New York City as that has always been my dream since I was young. And I can already tease one plan for next year: I will return to New York, this time together with my mom 😊

I have big plans for 2026 and I can't wait to share it all with you over the next months. Be ready for some cool adventures in new countries and cities πŸ’ͺ

I am currently taking a rest in Jakarta and I will take January off from traveling and posting on YouTube, so you can expect the next videos here in February.

See you soon!

I made it to Tokyo, Japan. πŸ‡―πŸ‡΅

Probably the most requested country to visit by you guys in the comment section and a country I have been curious about for a long time. I had a very interesting (and stressful) arrival day here in Tokyo. You can watch the video here: https://youtu.be/kbPPijS29sg
