#ResourceTravel Instagram Photos of the Week

Well, my New Year’s resolution of not missing a week for selecting the #ResourceTravel Instagram Photos of the Week lasted all the way until early May. That is four and a half months longer than most of my resolutions last. But hopefully I make up for it with some sweet selections this week, led by Alexandra Cohen’s first look at the spectacular Monument Valley. Cohen did her first ever road trip through the U.S. Southwest, and her images were inspiring and beautiful! Stay tuned for an upcoming feature on Cohen’s work on Resource Travel.

Check out the other selections below and remember to follow us on Instagram and use the hashtag #ResourceTravel for a chance to be featured.

Seljalandsfoss, Iceland by @romain.charrier

2 months ago I was back in Iceland. When I left the country for the first time it was hard. I terribly missed its wonderful landscapes. I'm glad to be here again. •

Cobar, Australia by @laurenepbath

How's this for a transition? I've gone from luxury in the Adelaide Hills to the @ShitBoxRally … FUCK CANCER! The Shitbox rally is raising millions of dollars for cancer research and it's an epic rally in total shitboxes. We left Mackay four days ago and are currently in Cobar heading south. The trip finishes in Tassie! Check the link in my profile to find out more and to donate, every dollar counts. @shitboxrally #shitboxrally
