Opening up.
Bachelor Nation got to know and love Jonathon Johnson on Season 21 of “The Bachelorette.”
Since his time on the show, Jonathon has been keeping fans updated with his life on social media, sharing about fun experiences and his time with other Bachelor Nation stars.
He’s currently giving love another shot on the beaches of “Bachelor in Paradise” Season 10 and took to Instagram to share about an interesting experience he had after filming.
In a new video online, Jonathon shared, “I bought a one-way flight to Europe and took 28 photos with 28 strangers. Some of the photos are great. Some of them are unrecognizable. To anybody that’s in this video, thank you. I appreciate the kindness you gave to me. It brought me back to feeling like me again.”
The Bachelor Nation star wrote more about his experience in his caption and explained why he decided to take photos with strangers.
He expressed, “I bought a Polaroid, a one way ticket to Spain, and had two goals… get 28 photos with strangers and feel like myself again! I got pictures with families, college grads, tour guides, fans of bachelor nation, and people from different walks of life. And when I tell you it changed my world, I mean it literally brought me back to reality. This is your sign to just say hi to the person next to you because you never know who you could meet.”
Jonathon also revealed that he was inspired to go on this adventure after feeling anxious he wrapped filming for “BIP.”
“When I got back from filming I was so badly in my anxious mind that I knew I needed a break from my reality and GOD did it help,” he admitted. “Putting yourself on national TV for the world to judge isn’t easy. So if I can give y’all one piece of advice: we’re doing our best, we may make mistakes along the way. Unfortunately we don’t have the luxury of doing it in private, but hey that’s what we signed up for.”
Jonathon ended his post with one last piece of advice for his followers, saying, “So, have some grace, but also have some fun with it because we’re not perfect and we definitely deserve a little sh!t here and there 😂”
We are so glad Jonathon had such a great experience taking these photos and we appreciate his vulnerability. We're sending him love today and every day!
