"We create better content together"

Watch the Campaign Video for Australia

Our self-funded test trip to Canada last year showed that four creators working together leads to more amazing content for you. Learn about our plans for Australia, and why you should help fund this trip.

Schedule and budget

Making sure you get value

Canada taught us that balancing flight timing, hotel location and more was important to maintain quality and prevent burnout. It also allows us time to meet you in person! Find out more about our schedule and costs.
