#TRAVEL: This ONE YEAR OLD INFLUENCER is making BANK... just by traveling!

A baby boy in Idaho is already working as what many consider a dream job - a social media influencer. Briggs Darrington just celebrated his first birthday earlier this month and he’s already been on 45 flights, has seen Hawaii and Alaska, and he collects a paycheck every month, all thanks to his mom, Jess, who documents their trips.

She gave the traveling tot his start just three weeks after he was born, when Briggs made his first trip, glamping an hour from home. Jess had been running a travel blog, Part Time Tourists, for years when she and her husband, Steve, welcomed their son in October 2020. The couple wanted to continue their adventures with their little bundle of joy and share the tips she learned along the way about traveling with an infant, so she turned to social media. She started an Instagram account for him called “Where is Briggs” that has 30-thousand followers and his TikTok account has nearly 25-thousand followers.

And it’s all paying off, literally. Jess estimates her son earns about a thousand dollars a month, thanks to trips and fees, as well as working with tourist boards and brands - Briggs even has a diaper company that sponsors him. “My husband and I joke that he kind of pays his own bills,” the mom shares. “He definitely carries his weight around the house.”
