A short compilation of footage from my x5-day adventure around Iraqi Kurdistan in November 2019. Iraqi Kurdistan offers a rich culture with a fascinating history and beautiful landscapes. Check out my Instagram and Facebook page for photographs and stories:

The 'MINUTE DIARY' is a compilation of footage from my various adventures. They attempt to cinematically capture the essence of the places visited. These videos are great fun to make – the process basically involves overlaying footage over a soundtrack to create a video that flows seamlessly and tells a story.

I made this video as the Introduction clip to a x5 Day / x5-Episode TRAVEL DIARY. This video series will document my day-to-day activities as I go about my day traveling on a very tight budget (less than $50 for x5 days of travel). In this video series, I will show you how I minimize my costs, in particular, the x3 main costs incurred when traveling:
[1] TRANSPORT
[2] ACCOMMODATION
[3] FOOD
... using simple techniques, such as hitch-hiking, using local/public transport, CouchSurfing, Sharing Hotel Rooms and eating local food.

This video is made using a Canon G7 X Mark II (a simple point-and-shoot) and my phone (I do wish I'd had a drone at the time!). If you learn a decent video editing tool you can easily create these, I use Final Cut Pro X (FCPX). FCPX currently has a 90-day-free-trial which is more than enough time to learn the software and create content: www.apple.com/final-cut-pro/trial/.
