Funniest lockdown travels

The nationwide lockdown is hard on everyone, but even more so on travel enthusiasts. Some have had to cancel exiting travel plans from trips booked long in advance.

While the pandemic is no laughing matter, these travellers have made light of a serious situation by showcasing their lockdown ‘journeys’.

One Belgian couple, for instance, travels the world by editing themselves into pictures of various locations:

Today we met two great guys at our hostel (hostel recommended by @huguesmarsily). They told us a story about a ring, a community, two towers… Weird story really. But the guys are pretty cool ! They left at the moment we took a picture but you can see their back ! ▫️ Tomorrow a new destination. What would it be ?

Buongiorno! We may be losing our minds during this quarantine but at least we are having fun! Last night we traveled to Venice, Italy. It was beautiful and an adventure all it’s own. ____ We used @amazon boxes to create our gondola and pretended that we were spotting different sites throughout our ride down the canals. Logan was on a mission to find the crab from Moana and was disappointed we did not see it. We did sing “Shiny” for the entirety of our ride, though! ____ What You Don’t See: We tried to put a temporary tattoo mustache on Evan but failed miserably because of his beard. We also had a very difficult time getting Logan inside our gondola because all he wanted to do was pretend to be a “crab in the ocean!” Ciao! ____ #socialdistancing #quarantinekidsactivities #kidsofnewyork #kidstraveler #kidsquarantine #familyquarantine #toddlerquarantine #quarantinegames #quarantinelife #stayhome #travelathome #quarantinetravelchallenge #nyquarantine #romeitaly #venice #veniceitaly #veniceitaly #traveltoddler #travelfamily #familytravel #familytravels #familyadventures #familyadventure #visititaly #visititaly #adventurefamily #travelwithkids #fomofeedathome #travelinside #fomofeedkids
