Mini bio
How it started.
Luke grew up in Sydney with a dream of making videos. After six months working and saving, he left Australia in May 2019. His first solo destination was Sri Lanka. In India, he began filming every day and making food videos, which helped his channel find an audience.
Finding his audience.
After a year back in Australia during COVID, Luke resumed travelling in early 2021, starting with Pakistan. He told 7NEWS that viewers stuck at home wanted to see what was happening in other countries. By December 2022, he was celebrating one million YouTube subscribers.
Making it a business.
Luke told Brandsynario that hiring his first editor in 2021 made the work feel like a business with real responsibilities. Alongside his videos, he has built travel eSIM provider Globie with two friends. His 2026 uploads span Syria, Cuba, Pakistan, Iran, Hong Kong, Kuwait and Somalia.
