The Extraordinary Travel Festival (ETF) announced that The Skate Nomad, Mike Boisvert, will be joining the event which will run from 22nd to 25th October in Bangkok, Thailand.
Boisvert is the first confirmed panellist for the event’s panel on video content creation which will centre on a discussion regarding the art, craft, and strategy of travel content, including monetisation and platform dynamics.
According to ETF co-founder Ric Gazarian: “The Video Content Creation Panel reflects something we care deeply about at ETF: the stories that come from the road. Mike is out there every day proving that a board, a backpack, and a camera can take you anywhere. He is connecting with locals like the Ethiopian Skate Girls for genuine interactions. Together, they represent exactly the kind of creators who belong in this conversation.”
Getting to know the Skate Nomad
Mike Boisvert is a Canadian content creator who has built a passionate global following by doing something refreshingly simple: traveling the world solo with a skateboard and a camera.
His mission is to document skateboarding culture across every corner of the planet.
Since launching his channel in 2022, Boisvert has amassed over 153,000 YouTube subscribers and more than 37 million video views and over 118,000 followers on his Instagram channel, documenting skate spots, skate parks, and skate communities from destination to destination.
His work captures not just the skating, but the culture, people, and stories that surround it, making him one of the most distinctive travel-meets-action-sports voices in digital media today.
Boisvert’s content is a natural fit for ETF III, where the intersection of adventure, storytelling, and independent exploration is at the heart of everything.
