In this post, I talk about my YouTube channel Walker Story, where you can explore cities and countries through street videos with no interaction with the camera. Immerse yourself in the atmosphere of the streets, enjoy the sound of footsteps and the noises around. I have already visited many places: from cities in Russia, Georgia, and Turkey to Europe — Barcelona, Paris, and Rome — and I’ve also traveled to Thailand, Malaysia, and Indonesia. If you enjoy this format, support the channel with a like and subscribe, so I can keep sharing new places and experiences with you.
When I was in Ankara, the capital of Turkey, I filmed the changing of the guard at Atatürk’s Mausoleum with my phone. I uploaded this video to my YouTube account, and it was this video that pushed me to create my own channel.
At the moment, I’m filming with a DJI Pocket 3. In my opinion, it’s the best camera for this kind of filming because of its mechanical stabilization, which gives smooth video and great image quality with rich colors. I’m also planning to buy a GoPro 12 for filming bike rides, underwater swimming, and other interesting moments.
For photos, I use a Pixel 8a smartphone — it’s an excellent device that is not worse than an iPhone, and in some ways, it’s even better. In short, these are the main devices I use for filming.
Walker Story is a channel for people who want to explore the world through a screen. I record walks in different cities and countries, and my style is no interaction with the camera. You just watch and feel the atmosphere: the sound of footsteps, street noises, conversations in the background. It’s the perfect way to dive into a new place or remember your favorite cities.
My journey started with trips around Russia, where I explored nearby cities. Then I traveled to other countries, including through Georgia, Turkey, and reached sunny Mersin.
I have also visited other countries in Europe and Asia. My videos capture real streets and moments you might miss in typical travel reviews. It’s a unique chance to walk in a new city without leaving your couch.
