Why? There's nothing wrong with cashing in on our desire to escape from the grind. The winter here in the upper South is an especially difficult season for me, since it's unpleasant to spend much time outside, and I absolutely want to watch videos of people cruising around the Caribbean or bicycle touring the Mediterranean or hiking trails. I'm glad people are able to go out and spend their lives making those kind of videos at all, and I'm not surprised that there's a lot of work to it.

Although I do try to avoid the channels that heavily exploit the women-in-bikinis thing, and prefer ones that are honest about the gritty and unpleasant details, like toilet repair.
