On Sunday, the 39-year-old actor — who starred as Khal Drogo on season one of the hit HBO series from 2011 to 2012 — shared a rare behind-the-scenes look into the show.

According to the star, during that time "Game of Thrones" had a short break from filming and the pals were too "broke to fly home," so instead, they rented a U-Haul.

"So homesick. Looking through my phone I found this," Momoa began his post. "Off the road some quiet parking lot in donegal. It was an amazing simple moment with my best friend @captainriff 📸.
