As promised, here is a tutorial on how to make your still photos animated with an app called Plotagraph! The feature works best on photos with water (like all of my waterfall pics on Instagram) or clouds!
If you found this tutorial useful, please consider crediting me on an animated post, since this is not a sponsored post (AKA I’m not making money or gaining anything), and I just made it since so many people wanted to know how to do it too! <3
Below is also the written steps and photos, but the video above is better!

This was so fun to see how you make these awesome photos. I downloaded the app and have had a blast playing with it. Thanks Alyssa!
Awesome! Thank You! I've been wondering how to do this for ages!
Glad you found it helpful, Jena!
That is such a cool trick. Will definitely try this one out. Have you tried it with other 'moving' objects?
So helpful thank you for sharing. ????????????
Welcome, enjoy!
This is amazing thanks for sharing! Definitely going to give this a shot with my own photos (I'll make sure to give you a shout out ;) )
Thanks Brian!

Thanks Silvie!
Love your blog, Alyssa! Great photos and adventures
Thank you so much Heidi!
Wow! I love your pictures on Instagram and your blog! To be honest, until now I thought that somebody edits your pictures for you. Apparently, I was mistaken :) Thank you for sharing your tips. You are awesome.

Haha thank you! And yes, I take and edit all of my own photos! :D
Hi,
This is an off the topic question but I hardly see it addressed on the many full-time traveler blogs I follow. I think your lifestyle is totaly doable but I have one fear and that is what to do about health insurance. How do you handle health insurance when you're travelling? Where does your coverage come from and what is covered? Might be a great topic for a new post!
Thanks,
Melissa
Hi Melissa! I have travel insurance through Allianz (I have 2 blog posts with further details) for emergencies, and then I have regular health insurance in the US. Usually general health care is extremely cheap abroad so the travel insurance is enough :)
Ooh loopsie, cool. Must go check that out. Thanks, Alyssa!
You're welcome, Ciara! Glad you found it helpful!
