Man travels world with ‘Godzilla friend’

Team Udayavani, Jan 18, 2020, 5:20 PM IST

Some people take their significant others to vacation with them, some take their families and some people take their pets.

This film-maker on Instagram is taking something else he holds dear to him with him on vacation – his pet Godzilla. Nope, not a typo.

Kieran Murray, who has been traveling with a toy figurine for a while, and taking perspective photos for his Instagram, decided to up things a notch and start Photoshopping his ‘friend’ into his travel photos.

Murray is currently based in New York City, so most of Godziling’s antics taken place in Manhattan and Brooklyn reports Travel Leisure. But not just regional, Godzilla, called @ryangodzilling on Instagram has been traveling across countries.

Here are some of the photos:

Minding our own business, walking home from dinner in Roswell, New Mexico and Ryan suddenly gets abducted by aliens! smh? Don’t panic. He’s alright. I think he’s more upset about the fact that the alien tractor beam wasn’t strong enough to lift his big bones. ? After it was over he kept asking me if I thought he was “abductable” and I reassured him that if I was an alien, he would be my first abductee. ??? thanks @hbrfilm for phoning home for us

Ryan saw “a giant Hubba Bubba” at the bowling alley and dropped it when he realized it was actually “a very stale Jaw Breaker.” Thanks @ellel17 for finding his tooth.

Ryan is really trying his best to appreciate modern art… He especially liked this piece and said “it emphasizes a heated depiction of fiery lust and compassion, as the warm use of colour suggests. And the subtle use of geometry is a clue that every individual must strive to use the metaphorical big logs to keep the fire of society lit. Simply magnificent“ Then I leaned in and told him it was a fire extinguisher.
