#1.

#2.
Wanderlust: a strong desire to wander and explore the world.
– German Origin
#3.
Collect moments. Not things.
– Unattributed
This quote is so very true. We are more engaged in the experience of our travels and not so much getting the souvenirs from each place. It’s the “moments” that we remember, not the “things.”
#4.
Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent working in an office or mowing your lawn. Climb that damn mountain.
– Jack Kerouac
#5.

#6.
The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.
– Augustine of Hippo
#7.
If you think adventure is dangerous, try routine, it’s lethal.
– Paulo Coelho
We’re always ready for our next adventure and the day-in and day-out of our normal work routine “kills” us. Like many, we live for our weekends and vacations that, unfortunately, we are wishing our life away working our 9-5 jobs.
#8.
Travel is not reward for working, it’s education for living.
– Anonymous
#9.
Our happiest moments as tourists always seem to come when we stumble upon one thing while in pursuit of something else.
– Lawrence Block
This is spot-on! I don’t know how many times we have happened upon something in our travel adventures that wasn’t planned and they are always the most memorable moments.
#10.

#11.
Travel and change of place impart new vigor to the mind.
– Seneca
#12.
My favorite thing is to go where I’ve never been.
– Diane Arbus
There’s something exhilarating about going to somewhere new and we try to go to someplace different at least once a year.
#13.
The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.
– Marcel Proust
#14.
Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.
– Mark Twain
You never know what tomorrow brings so don’t make excuses, instead figure out a way to do the things you want to do. Obviously, for us, that’s to travel more and see the many sights this wonderful world has to offer.
#15.

#16.
Once a year, go someplace you’ve never been before.
– Dalai Lama
#17.
Never get so busy making a living that you forget to make a life.
– Unknown
Definitely something we all need to be reminded of, no matter what your passion is. With how many hours the typical person works it’s easy to forget to make a life that you enjoy when work can be so draining.
#18.
I haven’t been everywhere, but it’s on my list.
– Susan Sontag
#19.
Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.
– Neale Donald Walsch
It’s so easy to continue to live the life we are accustomed to, but you learn so much once you step out of your security bubble. With travel, it can be a little scary to venture out of your country that you know and understand so well, but when you do it’s so enriching to learn the different cultures and what each place offers, you’ll be itching to go somewhere else to do it all over again.
#20.
