How Did I Become a Travel Influencer(by growing on Instagram) | 🇪🇸Canary Islands Vlog 9

guy6 exciting day we are taking a helicopter ride first time ever i have never done this before and i'm excited a little bit scared to be honest but it's gonna be sick and in this video i will talk a little bit how i became a travel influencer and how i get all of these cool [Music] [Music] experiences guys that was so crazy i'm so happy such a cool experience safely landed the captain was so nice and the whole experience those views were insane guys i think we are here where the helicopter was uh flying and

this place is so so sick it's unreal it looks unreal it's so beautiful it's a little different perspective here than in the helicopter and it's more peaceful here also it's so quiet yeah anyways i've been doing this social media thing for i think two and a half years now and when i first started i only had the instagram page for my online business i was selling travel accessories and that was not a successful business but anyways uh that's how i started the instagram i always wanted to have my own business and that was my first

try and it was not successful but i still had the instagram and it was growing pretty well back then so i thought okay i'm just using all my time for this instagram because maybe it will be useful someday somehow and it kept growing and last year 2020 uh spring the instagram page was growing great but i wasn't so happy with my own content and i was planning to do some long-term travels in the fall and in the upcoming spring and yeah the pandemic changed plans a little bit i wanted to learn how to make content

better and how to manage the whole business better so back then i think it was may 2020 i joined lca lost creator academy is a online academy for content creators it was the best choice of my life and i learned so much from that academy about content creation making videos and everything regarding this whole business and how to manage my files like everything i was still starting my journey of content creation so i didn't know all of the little and big factors what goes into this business and content creation in general also the community part

of this lca was so huge because ever since then i have been traveling always with people like-minded people content creators all over the world like from australia from germany yeah before that i was so alone because in finland i didn't know anybody who would be doing this content creation or social media or anything regarding these things so it was so nice to find people to do these things with so i think that spring 2020 my instagram page gained 100 000 followers that was really a huge milestone and ever since i have been just uh learning

and learning more about the photography and videography and making collabs with hotels and really putting all my time and efforts to this business and building my own portfolio and my own business yeah last fall i made my first big collaborations in santorini and positano and after that from that portfolio i built in those places i managed to get a 30 days deal to canada maldives it's a really nice luxury resource in maldives and i got so much content from there and the instagram was growing i was posting maldives content and then i really started to

think about this thing of something that could make me a living long term and after maldives i basically wanted to go to bali but it was rainy season and the visa situation was a little bit difficult and expensive so i thought okay i'm just waiting and at that time some creators from lost creator academy were in fort de ventra in canary islands and i was talking to them and then when i was planning to go to mexico but in the end i didn't want to go to mexico for various reasons so those people in the

canary islands they said hey you should come to canary islands with us so i thought oh this is really nice opportunity we can create content together and it was pretty easy to come to tenerife so i came here and here we have been creating lots of content for france and i really started to go all in with this business here in tenerife and now i really want to launch a patreon where it is how i've been able to get all these hotel deals and collaborations with various brands and hotels and how i've been able to

grow my instagram and everything regarding my business all the tips and tricks i have learned during the past few years for example how to get uh cheaper airbnbs even if you don't have big following or how to get hotel this with luxury resorts and everything i have learned and that's a lot yeah if you are interested in that it should be ready in one or two weeks so stay tuned for that yeah i'm happy to help you and make your journey easier because of the all of the knowledge i have learned that knowledge wasn't available

online when i started so it was really hard and from experience i learned these things but for you it would be so much more easy if you just learn from me from my experience if you are just starting this journey or if you are already collaborating with huddles but you want to learn from me i have done it so many times so there's a lot of knowledge i can teach you i want to keep this price really cheap because i want everybody to be able to check this whole program it's so much value i promise

that and i will do my best to do it as valuable as possible for you [Music]
