Tbh if someone offers you something you'll take it surely?
Oh of course, but I'm not a YouTuber
Not sure but I wouldn't claim it's my job.
He's a sponger.
Well I guess been gifted a stay and filming it is advertisement for their company. YouTubers seen YouTube filming as their job
Their egos will be more inflated now they are being gifted trips. She is already insufferable
Almost!

I find his vlogs with her a bit awkward. It's like he's showing her off zooming in on areas of her body that he doesn't need to. Dirty man. And she flirts with the camera too.
Same here. The vlogs lately have been boring.
Another paid for trip up on YT. Said it’s the first he’s accepted. Quick to accept the second then
Both of them are lazy freeloaders.
Wow yeah 12 days free on that ship. It'll be totally biased no matter what they say. That's the end of me watching their channel anyway. Was nice talking to ye all!
Yes I totally agree. But stay in the thread you can still chat without watching his vlogs properly. I just skip through them.
I've lurked Tattle for a long time and never commented before but need to comment here now! I've been a long time viewer of Steve's channel and he was one of my favourite YouTubers. I think I've watched pretty much all of his videos and really loved that he did a lot of Scottish content. I'm from here so good inspo for trips away. I also used to like how he'd do everything pretty cheaply - I know some folk weren't into that as they saw it as being tight, but again, I felt like it was good to see someone not dropping £££ on a trip, made it feel like they were doable for me as well. I also really liked when Alicija was in the vids - I felt like they used to bounce off each other nicely and it broke up some of the videos where just his solo commentary could be a bit meh.
However, I feel like there's been a shift since his Ecuador trip. The first episode when he flew business class for £1k one way I was like, okay, not his usual stuff but I'll still watch. However I thought he acted like a complete tit when he was there - walking through the neighbourhood where the locals told him not to go, it was just stupidity. And then the whole thing about his phone getting stolen just seemed so weird - it felt really fake to me. There's no way someone in his line of work doesn't back up their photos/videos. Yeah maybe the ones from his flight over etc he wouldn't have backed up yet (although surely he'd have iCloud?), but no way he hadn't done it from his previous trips.
I felt like he was trying to pull at people's heartstrings with that and losing memories with A and his dad, who he hadn't mentioned had passed away before then. And then the donations came in - I counted well over £1k being donated for a new phone, as though a) he couldn't afford to replace it and b) he wouldn't have travel insurance?! It left a bad taste in my mouth that he accepted those donations.
I don't know if anyone remembers, but on one of his videos in Norway previously he saw the Hurtigruten come into port and he spoke about how much he'd love to go on one of their cruises but could never afford it. Then he did his first QM2 cruise and a few months later the £20k QM2 cruise. The Hurtigruten cruises are dear but considering he's raking in almost £5k a month on Patreon he's hardly on the breadline. Can't believe he's now doing gifted stuff. I mean, I totally get why someone would accept a free luxury cruise but doubt I'll ever watch his channel again. I feel like his videos have been generally going downhill anyway and the Ibiza ones were absolute rit!
TL;DR - you can afford to pay for your own travel, Steve!

Yes, there’s no way he did not have his pics and videos backed up. I don’t believe he doesn’t pay for the additional cloud storage and he would have definitely had travel insurance. You are also right about the complete disregard. He does this a lot and even on the cruise, going to decks he shouldn’t be on. The two of them have massive egos and I will await their downfall. I like to see people do well but those two are fake and beggars.
On a side note. How infantile is she trying to look? She’s dressing like a child and carrying about teddies on her trips. The boots/jumper/short dungarees

Haven’t watched for a while but she’s now carrying teddies like wtf!!!! She’s a grown ass woman. Must’ve got the idea from Koda from Theme Park Express cos she carries a baby Grogu everywhere she goes. I do think she (Koda) may have a learning disability or something.Yes, there’s no way he did not have his pics and videos backed up.

She's walking around carrying teddies with a man that's old enough to be her dad. It's all very odd 
.
.That’s what’s getting me. Fair enough a just turned 31 year old, do as you wish, but she’s with a 54 year old, how does that look with her cutting about with teddies? They already look odd together and so many mistake them for father and daughter but the child like clothes and teddies amplify it
I haven't seen any videos with the teddies, but that does sound odd, especially as she hasn't done it before (or he hasn't shown it at least!) 
Rewatching some of his old vids a wee while back and (I can't remember specifics) but there were so many where he said 'I'll need to come back here', places he was maybe passing through and wasn't able to properly see, and he's never been back to any of them. He's as bad as Scott from Planes, Trains, Everything for saying that. Half the time it's not even far away places as well. When it's your full time job, surely it'd be easy to do?
