Profession
On January 31, 2017, Paramvir traveled abroad alone for the first time, to Turkey. He visited Turkey to intern at AIESEC DU, a global platform for developing leadership potential in young people. It was a six-week internship, during which Paramvir taught English to children at a local school and had to spend time in a speech club with Turkish people and converse with them in English. The goal of his internship is quality education. After his internship, Paramvir was supposed to return to India, but instead he booked a flight to Georgia because he already had a US visa. He stayed in Georgia for a week and then returned to India with a brief stopover in Doha, Qatar.
In 2018, he was inspired by Indian YouTuber Yatri Doctor and decided to travel to Russia and Kazakhstan and make vlogs during the trip. He made these videos with a selfie stick and a wide microphone and talked about it on the podcast, saying,
I don’t think anyone saw the video except me and my dad. “
His video of his trip to Russia didn’t have any success and he has since started making videos at home describing the visa process for all the countries he has visited. At this point, his YouTube channel was profitable, but he only earned Rs 500 per month.
Since his channel wasn’t having much success, he decided to give it one last try before moving on to other things and hunt down the most dangerous tribes in the world. He met the Mursi, an Ethiopian tribe in southern Ethiopia near the Sudanese border. After completing his research, with financial help from his father, he traveled to South Africa with his cousins and uploaded the video upon his return. The video went viral and he has since started traveling to different countries around the world and uploading vlogs regularly.
He has traveled to more than 70 countries around the world, including Germany, Qatar, Georgia, Denmark, Sweden, Switzerland, France and Belgium. Paramvir has also traveled to many third world countries, including El Salvador and Sudan. His choice of countries to travel to is different from most travelers, as he often travels to dangerous countries, the least visited countries, and war-torn countries such as Syria and Somalia.
In 2023, he launched an online course on his website on how to get paid to travel. He charges people a fee for the course.
