Travelling the world is the stuff of dreams.

Some people sacrifice everything in exchange for the trip of a lifetime, which is exactly what Jonathan Kubben Quinonez did. 

The Mexican-native quit his job and sold his car to begin his epic journey, but was sad to leave one very special person behind. 

The wanderluster is massively fond of his mum, and he knew that she would be worrying about his wellbeing. 

He decided that he needed a way to let her know he was safe and well while embarking on his global expedition. 

 And so, Instagram account @momimfine was born. 

Now the account updates his mum and his 267,000 followers on his travels, and his message to his mum is always on show. 

Whether it's written across his palms while scuba diving, emblazoned on a pizza in Italy, or scrawled on his signature sign atop a mountain, Jonathan's mum is the most in-the-loop woman around. 

Jonathan told The Lad Bible that it all began when he took his first trip to Cuba.  

'When I arrived, with the time difference, the Communist party blocking the internet and the prices of phone calls, it was difficult to communicate with my friends and family,' he told the site. 

'Mums are always worried. Especially mine.'

 'It was complicated to be in contact with her so I decided to give a positive message and show her that the world is a beautiful place and that I am fine.'

'I started to take pictures in funny or scary situations with my sign. Whatever the situation was, I always found a way to give my message.'

The message paid off, as Jonathan now travels the world with ease thanks to his travel influencer lifestyle brought on by the sign. 

And we're sure his mum is only delighted for him .

There are many reasons that people chicken out of travelling; however, no matter how much of cliché this sounds like, travelling will really open up to new experiences and new people

The excuse: It’s too dangerous
We admit it, some places are safer than others but just choose your destinations with caution and you’ll be fine. There is a whole world out there to be enjoyed – feel the fear and do it anyway.

The excuse: I’m broke
This is a legitimate excuse we know but there are so many other ways around it! Volunteer or work as an English teacher – not only will you be giving back but it will look good on your CV.

The excuse: Too many responsibilities
You will always find something more important that you need to do but just go with it – as the kids would say, “YOLO”.

The excuse: I’ll be homesick
Leaving your family and friend behind for the big bad world can be pretty daunting but it will be so worth it. And it’s not like you can never see them again!
