Matthew Galat

Vlogger/Traveler

From suburban American Entrepreneur to World Traveller.

Born in Detroit Michigan on June 21st, 1979. I grew up as an aimless dreamer, encouraged to follow my heart above all else. Driven to strive for success, I pursued a self-employed life, which took me through numerous ups and downs. From Detroit to Florida, Florida to Las Vegas and then Las Vegas to China. In China things got interesting. I found my passion for travel and video as well as my desire to explore.

Learn about me thru video

I have opened myself up quite a bit in my videos.  My professional life, my personal life and my family are on display for those interested in learning more about who I am and how I got here.  Below are some videos that might give you some inside should you so desire.

Vlogger / Youtuber 13:12

In this episode I comically interview myself.  In the process I reveal how I got to where I am and why I have developed my Youtube channel and the ins and outs of how I make videos.  It’s a good video to relate to my motivations.

Why did i move to china? 25:18

In my mind, life is like a business. Great risks reveal hidden rewards, and stagnation leads to failure. I am constantly looking for hidden opportunities. Constantly trying to use these skills to sustain my travel ambitions financially.  So far so good.

I was a Door to Door salesman. 6:45

My move to China was prompted by a few critical moment in my life.  These moments laid the groundwork to make me the guy I am today.  In this episode I answer some questions and tell some stories about my past.

Adventurer: Climbing Everest 16:00

From climbing Mont Everest, to running marathons in North Korea, I try to challenge myself to live a life of adventure and fulfillment. I take risks, I push the limits and I try never to turn down an opportunity to have a great adventure.

Recumbent Trike Cyclist? 20:45

Using the power of your own body and spirit is incredible. By cycling, you can harness the power within yourself to propel you around the world. I am pedaling myself around the world on the seat of my human powered recumbent trike. I never thought I would be doing this… I grew up in Detroit for petes sake!

My Daughter Eva. 8:17

On July 14th 2016, my daughter was born, and from that moment another great adventure began. Since then, my daughter Eva has taken a role in my life and in my vlog. As she grows, she learns of the world through my videos.
