After 3 years of solo travelling through Latin America, I've filmed in some pretty unpredictable conditions. Humid jungle heat, dusty overnight buses, crowded markets and cobblestone streets that are not tripod friendly. That experience taught me exa... Everything on this list is something I have personally tested on the road and would pack again without hesitation.

On Land Content
Devices I use to reliably shoot on-land content, whether that's getting footage, recording great audio & getting that footage back onto your computer reliably.
An absolute game-changer if you need a quick way to shoot stable content, from your iPhone!
DJI Osmo Mobile 7 Gimbal Stabilizer for iPhone & Android
A really great option for beginner creators who aren't yet ready to invest in an expensive mic.
2 Pack Wireless Lavalier Mic USB-C iPhone
The easiest option to ensure you can get your footage on your phone or computer virtually right after you capture it!
Beikell Dual USB 3.0/USB-C SD Card Reader
A great fully adjustable tripod that can shoot low to the ground content or standing height.
TELESIN Bluetooth Floating Selfie Stick Tripod for GoPro
Whether you want that influencer glow or shoot in low light conditions, having portable lighting is never a bad idea.
Portable 90 LED Selfie Ring Light for iPhone
A more elevated mic option if your content is audio focused or you do a lot of voiceovers. DJI is pretty much the gold standard.
DJI Mic Mini 2 TX + 1 RX Wireless Lavalier

GoPro HERO9 Black - Waterproof Action Cam 5K
Spoiler alert: This is actually how I make sure all of my footage is 16:9 for TikTok.
Aluminum 90° Vertical Mount for GoPro Hero 9-13
The GoPro's biggest downfall is it's battery life, so with this extra 3 batteries (and battery charger), it means that having 4 batteries = all day shooting
3 Pack 2000mAh Battery & Charger Kit for GoPro Hero 12 11 10 9
I refuse to colour grade for hours, so I always pop an ND filter on depending on the lighting conditions of my dive.
GoPro Hero 12-9 Accessories Kit Bundle Set
If you're a deep diver, you'll need this to avoid pressurizing your GoPro to death
TELESIN Waterproof Case for GoPro Hero 13-9, 60M
