The Twitch streamer LetsHugo wants to go on vacation in early January, but his community thinks he is always on vacation. The Twitch streamer has a different opinion and says his chat has no idea what vacation really is and what it isn’t; a trip has been the most stressful time of the year.
How did this situation come about? Shortly after starting his stream, the Twitch streamer LetsHugo talked about his upcoming vacation. In early January, the influencer plans to take a few days off, and therefore reminded his viewers that he would only be streaming for 1–2 hours a day during that time.
As a result, some viewers in the chat wondered why LetsHugo would go on vacation again. At that moment, the streamer lost his composure and shouted, “Your problem is, you don’t understand what vacation is and what isn’t.”
To get to know LetsHugo better, we created a video about him.
Not every trip is a vacation
Why should a vacation be the most stressful time of the year? The last proper vacation for the streamer was supposedly in August in Barcelona. Since then, he has only traveled for his work as a content creator. Especially the trip to Japan has apparently taken a toll on the streamer:
Japan was everything but a vacation. Japan was the worst this year, considering the stress and everything.

LetsHugo traveled to Japan for content to do “In-Real-Life” streams from various locations. His travel video to Tokyo has also achieved over 350,000 views on YouTube today. The trip was therefore not, as the viewers assumed, a vacation, but rather of a professional nature.
What about the other trips? The Twitch streamer was also recently in Austria, as he mentions in his stream. Although he does not specify the exact reason for his trip, he emphasizes that it was not a vacation.
Austria was everything but a vacation.

Why do influencers travel a lot but take little vacation? Whether streamer, YouTuber, or Instagrammer, influencers live off the content they create. However, the opportunities to create interesting content from home are limited. Other countries and cultures are exciting and can be shown well to one’s own audience.
As self-employed individuals, many influencers only make money when they are working. Therefore, vacation trips are always tempting to earn some money on the side.
Many influencers travel to create more interesting content. LetsHugo was often live during his trip to Japan, exploring the country.
What may initially seem like a vacation to viewers can mean many tightly scheduled appointments for influencers.
An alternative to going away are big events, such as Big Brother, which Knossi recently filled with his friends.
