Mini bio

How it started.

Jay began making videos at home in South West England with little filmmaking experience, according to his Everbloom creator profile. His official biography describes a travel journey spanning more than 45 countries since 2020.

Finding his audience.

His videos invite viewers to meet people in places often reduced to headlines. By January 2022, coverage of his collaboration with Classic Travel and Classic Sri Lanka reported more than one million YouTube subscribers. That project brought his travel storytelling to Sri Lanka alongside local tourism partners.

Beyond the vlog.

Photography, expeditions and writing have become part of Jay’s work too. His K2 film follows a 12-day, 200km trek with K2preneur, including the GGLA crossing. In 2025, Traverse named him its Photo of the Year winner. His first book, The Soul That Wandered East, followed in September 2026.
