Someone please let Jonathan Quiñonez's know that her son is doing just fine.

That's essentially what we gleaned from an awesome Instagram account that isn't just bringing followers to various places around the world, but it's placating one worried mother back at home.

With that, we'd like to direct your attention to Mom, I'm Fine, an Instagram journey we can't help but adore.

After a couple images you'll get the idea.

Thanks to a recent Imgur post (h/t Uproxx), we have a bit more appreciation for Quiñonez and his Instagram that as of this writing welcomes over 18,000 followers.

There the intrepid traveler explains, "Whatever your age is, if you have a Latin mom and a passion for adventure, you will have to find a way to tell her that you are fine."

And with a bunch of captivating images peppering his feed, Quiñonez continues, "This is my way."

As noted, the young man is 27 and moved away from the modeling world to work as a consultant.

Brussels might be his home, but Quiñonez looks extremely comfortable on the road, visiting such places as Cuba, Colombia, Mexico and Panama.

But no matter where he goes next, he wants to assure his mother that he is safe. But instead of a phone call, she may want to refresh his Instagram feed.
