IBN Hattuta
Jordanian backpacker and content creator with the aim of making fun and informative videos from every country in the world
BITS OF MY VIDEOS
Who Am I?
My name is Kasem, a digital nomad backpacking around the world 🌎
I started traveling while in university with the little money I made working little jobs, filling bags at supermarkets, cooking in KFC and selling tickets at the cinema box office.
I noticed that the MENA regions was lacking good informative Arabic travel content, especially low-budget rather than luxury! That was the reason I started my blog, Ibn Hattuta.
In the beginning it was a written blog, I was sharing all my stories, cultures, food, tips and experiences of traveling on a budget around the world, but later on I saw more opportunities for visual content, so I started making videos instead.
In 2018 I participated in "Sadeem", a reality show and contest for video content creators, I got to the semi-finals, and even though I almost made it but failed, it didn't stop me from pursuing my passion.
When I graduated university, first of my class, I took a decision to put my degree aside, and make a career shift to follow my passion in traveling and content creation, it was hard, not accepted by society and success wasn't guaranteed. I almost failed, but thanks to my followers, my determination and hard work, finally I'm a full time traveller/content creator.
My goal now is to be the first Arab content creator to make a video in every country in the world! So far I've finished 52 out of 196, and still going 💪🏼
