Travel and Music
So I was finishing up the slideshow for my Mum's 60th birthday last night and had to pick out some music to fit. We asked all of her friends to share with us pictures of her they may have had. My parents grew up in Scotland, so we have a lot from her travels in Europe, mostly to Spain. I guess I never realized how much of a traveler she was until putting this little project together. It's just not how I view her given that doesn't seem that adventurous now. But then I thought, well she was brave enough to take a leap over to America to give life a shot here. As I searched for song ideas to pair with her travel pictures, I found a fun poll on Traveler's Point about your top five all time songs to travel with. Then, feeling inspired I started to explore some blogs of people who just decided to, like my mum had done, take a chance on moving to another country and really live through travel. It's inspiring how many people do this. The stories are captivating and so compelling that they're even on a list of the 100 Best Travel Journal Blogs, a great list in its own right. All in all, a great night of online exploration led me to information I needed, things I didn't know, entertaining tales and an inspiring experience, which ironically is exactly what travel does for you.
