Top 10 Travel PIcs That Scared the Crap Out of My Mother

 

My mom and I are basically living proof that the wanderlust travel gene exists, except for one minor difference; I tend to travel and do things as dangerously as possible. I don’t do it on purpose, but I mean, if there’s a cliff to be climbed or waterfall to jump off of…it’s going to happen. To be fair, her travels in the pre-cell phone, pre-be-cautious-about-hitch-hiking -days were basically just as dangerous.

Also to be fair, she sees everything I post on social media, including SNAPCHAT, so it’s not like anything is ever really a shock to her. Well…aside from certain photos that you can’t really tell what the outcome was…

I really do try not to scare my mom, especially since she’s all for me traveling the world, but sometimes I forget that I’m sending or posting certain photos that would give any mom a heart attack. So here are my top travel pics so far that have caused the biggest ruckus! And thanks mom for being such a good sport! 🙂

Yeah, it isn’t legal at all to bring plants back from Cuba so I guess she has a right to be scared about this pic…. sorry?
