Hi I’m Phil and I’m on a Grey Gap Year.
I make videos on YouTube about the flights I take, the places I visit and the things I’ve learned along the way, offering tips, tricks and hacks to maximise your travel.
I started making videos of my travels in 2022 and decided to put them on YouTube in August 2023, because I wanted to share my experiences what I’d learnt, specifically about status and points hacks.
But the real reason I started putting videos on YouTube was because I wanted to help other solo travellers to have the confidence to go travelling by themselves.
Because lets be honest, I’m a pretty ordinary chap, and if I can do this, then you can too.
This website is a chance for me to share more tips and tricks that are perhaps not enough for a video, so please browse, enjoy and comment.
And, of course, thank you for joining me on My Grey Gap Year.
