This past week, we teamed up with Expedia for our #PPGoodTimes Instagram challenge and asked you to relive and share your best summer travel memories. Was it a family getaway? A road trip with friends? Solo backpacking? Whatever you shared, we loved reveling along with you.

Special thanks to our wonderful and wonderfully talented guest judges @griffinlamb, @puanindya, and @tfbergen as well as all who joined in to make the challenge what it was with nearly 2,000 entries ranging from Pakistan to Tasmania!

 

Congratulations to our honorable mentions (moving left to right, starting top-left): @jnasa, @celiohelder, @brandonjhook, @bnjmnwkl, @sesh_sareday, @demerzel21, @waqonthewildside, @amslebrun, and @herosdem! Check their feeds to journey into their individual travel moments.

Every night for 23 days I fell asleep in the second row of the sprinter van. I tilted my head back to count the stars (which were far too many for me to quantify) and stretched my toes through the windows on the other side. I'd shout goodnight to the moon, the willow trees, and lastly my friends, who would rest in a tent beside the van.

My wife and I hiked, biked, bused, and flew across Argentina for 2 weeks and some of the most memorable moments were on those journeys between destinations.

I’d been looking forward to this sunrise for months since we started planning our summer road trip through the Southwest. That morning, as I unzipped our tent, I felt a giddiness to what I was about to witness. I couldn’t help but pinch myself and be thankful for this beautiful world we’ve been enchanted with — perfect way to start the summer of adventures.
