Harry Jaggard Travel Wiki

Person

Mac

Harry's American friend and recurring travel companion, appearing across the Jordan and Pakistan vlog series and at Holi in India.

Mac

Mac (Instagram: @worldnomac) is a friend and recurring travel companion of Harry’s. He’s from the United States (Harry is from the UK), and the two banter their way through their trips — from nearly setting off their rental car’s alarm every morning in Jordan to trading dance moves with a Hunza band in Pakistan.

He is the reason the channel exists in its current form. In the 2021 year-in-review Harry says outright that he had been making cinematic films and that Mac talked him into daily vlogging as well, coached him through it with tips and tricks, and that this is what led to the Pakistan videos taking off and to YouTube becoming his job. Harry closes that video by asking viewers to subscribe to Mac’s channel before his own.

Best 5 Star Hotel in Kandy, SRI LANKA 🇱🇰
