How to post your vacation photos on Facebook:
At the top of your Facebook feed, you’ll see the “Make Post” box. Click “Photo/Video Album.”
You will then be prompted to select images from your computer or cell phone. Select the photos you would like to share with your friends and family.
After you’ve selected your pictures, you can customize your post by tagging people and locations and writing captions.
Pro tip: Be sure to add a destination to your album, so your friends and family know where you were! You should also tag any friends that went on the trip with you. You can also tag the ThirdHome page to make sure we see how much fun you had on your holiday.
Before you post, make sure your share settings are to your liking. You can share your album with the world, with just your friends, a select group of friends, or you can keep the album entirely private. Once you’ve selected your privacy settings, click “Post.”
How to post your vacation pictures on Instagram:
Once you’re logged into Instagram, press the Plus (+) button at the very bottom of the screen.
Now you can upload a picture or video from your trip by selecting a file from your camera roll.
Once you’ve picked and edited a photo you can enter a caption, tag @thirdhome and hashtag #StayWorldly to share your trip with the ThirdHome community. Be sure to tag the people who traveled with you and tag the location to inspire other would-be travelers. You can also choose to share this image on Facebook, as well.
Sharing your posts on social media is even better when you share them with friends. Be sure to follow your friends, family, and travel partners. You can also follow our accounts on Facebook and Instagram.
