A youtuber I really like is Jennifer Sparks. She owns a timeshare and does a lot of timeshare videos since she travels very frequently. She also goes to hotel casinos a lot and reviews them. Often she will have her timeshare videos as part of her casino reviews. Here's a recent one she did on Marriott Grand Chateau. She will also have an upcoming Sheraton Broadway Plantation Myrtle Beach. Never boring or flashy, very informative videos.

I've been subscribed to her channel before she had 100 subscribers and I am pretty sure the same is true of her being subscribed to mine. Early on when searching for resort tours and such on YouTube, hers would be the ones that came up. She went to Orlando a lot. I believe she owns at a Westgate resort in Orlando. Her channel has expanded a lot into other non timeshare content.

I'm actually thinking about putting together a youtube channel about "lifestyle" stuff, part of which is going to be travel and of that a large part is enabled by timeshares plus working remote. I think potentially as a working adult instead of retired, though with no kids and who mostly travels with other family members, I might be able to add another perspective. I've noticed on some of my posts here on TUG appreciation of my views on stuff a lot of other reviews miss, like wall plug locations and suitability for stealing a kitchen chair and making a mini workspace with a laptop that isn't the kitchen table. I plan to start trying to also document some more about what you can do "after work" in various locations at various times of the year, and how you can stretch half days or working half a week and half a week of vacation in trips that are neither work nor vacation totally.

I also hope to have the ability to show or at least write some info about trips with my sister and her husband, with my mom, with my cousin and his young kids, and with family friends to have a wide set of "situations" that might prove enlightening for more people in different life circumstances. I know so far I've run into very *few* timeshare discussions that talk about work while travelling. Though I haven't looked at generic work/travel on youtube - I imagine there are more of those.

Anyway, IDK what I'm doing really - I barely know how to cut video together - I was way more a photographer in the past. I also haven't actually tried to upload / create a youtube channel yet so ... Of course if I do end up uploading content (I'm taking some right now both in HHI last week and now in Bay Club II) I'll try and remember to link some here.

You can find my other posts in the various location based timeshare forums, and some basic stuff in TUG reviews too.
Just an FYI, I have been living in timeshares for two years... The last year, I have been working full time as a real estate agent... I am going to stop doing this soon as there are enough timeshares to keep doing this like I did last year traveling all over... I do think there is a remote worker angle. I think there are similar video blogs for people with RV's
