This woman is taking the funniest travel photos of all time

At a time where every image posted online is carefully filtered to make sure it’s as flattering as possible, one blogger (with a great sense of humour) has shown you don’t have to take perfect photos to have a fun online presence.

Michelle Liu is a travel blogger who is quickly gaining fans, not because of her flawless photos, but her willingness to poke fun at herself while travelling around the world. 

A post shared by Michelle Liu • Chinchelle (@chinventures) on Oct 8, 2017 at 5:15pm PDT

Liu’s images advocate the process of “chinning”, which involves taking a photo from beneath your chin, which is easily one of the most unflattering angles available.

“Chinning was originally born out of my insecurity from middle school. I felt the pressures of society and my peers to look a certain way and felt that I wouldn’t be able to live up to those standards,” she told HuffPost UK.

“As an alternative of traditional beauty, I started chinning to allow myself to embrace my quirky side and my friends thought it was funny.

“Eventually I decided to combine my love of travel with my love of chinning to create Chinventures when I went abroad in September 2016.”

Liu now has over 23,000 followers and she’s not stopping any time soon. To see some more photos of her “chinning” at incredible sites, scroll through the gallery above.
