A day in the life of Cha Ocampo.
Everyone thinks that vlogging for a living consists of coasting easy through life getting paid to take year-long vacations and posting beach pictures of yourself on social media. But as with almost all seemingly glamorous lifestyles, this dream job has its unrecognized downsides as well. Vloggers can be an easy target for criticism due to how much of their lives they put out on social media. Getting trolled, reading hurtful personal comments, and striving to remain relevant despite the overwhelming amount of competition isn’t a lifestyle many people can handle. Good thing Cha Ocampo has no problem getting people’s attention (even when she doesn’t mean to) and has enough patience to stay classy despite the drama that comes with her job. Get to know why she’s the virtual talk of the town.
How did you start travel blogging?
I started blogging about fashion but then natuwa ako traveling with friends and writing about the places na napuntahan ko. Super hilig ko kasi maglakwatsa na parang Dora The Explorer. Naging main goal ko malibot ang buong Pilipinas. Nakaka-cure ng soul [ang traveling], ito yung way of relaxing [ko] so it’s like work and fun at the same time.
When did you turn it into a career?
Sobrang unexpected niya rin at hindi ko inaakala. I didn’t know na pwede ko siyang gawing work as well. Sumama ako with Out of Town blog because they invited me to feature a hotel with them. After that, hotels and airlines started emailing me and tuluy-tuloy na akong nagkaroon ng projects.
