People around the world who are stuck at home are finding new ways to fight boredom and have giving interesting twists to household chores or trying out new social media challenges. The latest social media challenge is the ‘Quarantine travel challenge’, in which people share one picture in which they had travelled and another which is a recreation of the same at home, often with hilarious results.
It all started when Lithuanian travel writer and journalist Liudas Dapkus invited others to take part in the challenge that his colleague Gabrielė Štaraitė came up with. Soon his friends and colleagues at Travel Planet Kelionės joined in.
After inspiring people in Lithuania and neighbouring countries, it quickly spread across the world. From Instagram to Facebook, people have been recreating their favourite photos from travels with various props at home.
Here are some of the posts from the challenge:

Many are using their washing machines to recreate photos of them staring out of an airplane’s window.
Many have also started using their TV screens to recreate backgrounds for travel photos.
