Travel

The two most envy-inducing genres on Instagram are, first of all, madly in love stunning couples and, secondly, people who travel all over the world and capture it all on camera. Now imagine that we are going to combine those two things, then the Scale of Jealousy pretty much bursts apart. The people below are way too beautiful, have done something very well in their lives so that they can now make one amazing trip after another, and do that with their loved one. My cynical and black-humored edges disappear like snow in the sun because when I see this, I can only think one thing: I. want. this. too.

You might know this man, as he is the photographer of the world-famous Follow Me To series: photos of the back of his stunning girlfriend who holds her arm back and takes him to a beautiful destination. Those photos have now earned him about 2.2 million followers, a book, and worldwide fame. And my jealousy.

Onconventionele fotoblog over reizen” it says in the bio and that is quite true. Instead of large photos with intense color usage, we see two photos of the couple per image, both behind the lens. Peter Sedlacik and Zuzu Galova started this project about three years ago because they both love photography and each other. Aaaah how sweet. But it does produce beautiful pictures.

Alexis is the girlfriend of Jay, who comes next. Alexis is a model (of course) and has a surfer dude-like boyfriend (of course) and together they travel the world with their divine tanned bodies (of course). Honesty compels me to say that I recently unfollowed them because I just couldn't take it anymore. The handsomeness, perfection, and paradise-like beaches were just a bit too much for me.

The partner of Alexis then. Think brown muscular chest, perfectly low-hanging swim trunks, a big curly hairdo, and a snow-white smile. Jay makes videos of the trips he takes with Alexis and you can see them here on YouTube. Almost 5 million people have gone before you.

This couple comes from Tahiti, which is already quite a paradise destination on its own. Last April, they fell in love and now they travel the world together, from beach to city and back to sea. Many love stories made with the GoPro and everything provided with a nice trendy filter. I like it.
