desymbol: 22 People Share Their Funniest “Quarantine Travel” Pics

It looks like the quarantine won’t be lifted anytime soon and it will probably take months until we’ll be able to travel like before. However, the quarantine doesn’t seem to stop some travel-hungry people from coming up with creative ways of traveling from the comfort of their homes.

Just recently, Lithuanian journalist Liudas Dapkus and his colleague Gabrielė Štaraitė came up with a funny “quarantine travel” challenge. They encouraged people to recreate their travel photos using the things they found in their homes and received some hilarious results – check them out in the gallery below!

In an interview with Bored Panda, Liudas said that the quarantine messed up his 2020 travel plans and he even had to cancel his family trip to Turkey. “I’m not sure if we’ll be going to Portugal for Midsummer’s Day where they have a peculiar tradition to celebrate the day by hitting people on the head with inflatable hammers in the streets,” joked the journalist. “Our trips to Canada, Nicaragua, Costa Rica, and Panama won’t happen, either. We also planned to visit Mauritius and Reunion Island in November. Other than that, not much else has changed.”

Like most of us, Liudas is trying to keep himself occupied during the quarantine. He says he’s giving out interviews, going on TV shows and is even currently working on a new project which he says will be “important for Lithuania after this entire story is over and done with.” The journalist is also planning to release a new book this year and says he has already figured out the plot and even has time to put words on paper.

Liudas is an avid traveler and has visited over 70 countries around the world. Earlier this year, the man published a book about his adventures titled Žuvis, kuri supainiojo duris (The Fish That Fooled The Door).

“When we go on a trip, we’re determined to suffer so that we can become enlightened,” said Liudas. “We wander about to find some sort of meaning in our daily lives.”
