My Travel Soundtrack

21/3/2015

My trusty little iPod nano has been with my on all of my major trips since I my trip to Costa Rica in grade 10. My friends are either surprised that such an antique still works or enjoy poking fun of it, but I like my silly little iPod and will use it until it just stops working! I always associate whatever songs I listen to during my stay with the place I travel to. For example, right before my London, Paris, and Barcelona trip in May 2013, I went to see Of Monsters and Men and Vampire Weekend in concert. I listened to them quite a bit during that trip and always associate certain songs with certain places.

Lately, I've been giving myself a themed soundtrack for each place. Like, when I was in Iceland, I listened to Of Monsters and Men pretty much the entire time. A friend just recommended that I listen to George Ezra since his lyrics are about solo travelling throughout Europe and now I've listen to his album on repeat for a week (thanks Lily!)

So, here I present my ultimate travel playlist (of the moment!)
