Wanderlust

"...a strong desire for, or an impulse to, wander or travel and explore the world."


Travelling has always been something close to my heart. I love going to new countries and new cities and experiencing different sights, sounds and cultures and this has been something I have especially enjoyed since I went travelling around Continental Europe with my parents for nearly two months in 2004. I'm nearly 24 and I've been lucky enough to visit 13 countries. Nothing beats exploring a city where nobody knows you or wandering through breathtaking countryside with your closest friends and/or family to accompany you. This time next year I will have very nearly finished Uni and a lot of travelling is on the cards for me. Here are some videos that I discovered on Vimeo this morning whilst distracting myself from Uni work (which is partly also why I'm going to be blogging multiple times tonight, hope you all don't mind) that really made my feet itch, and got me in the mood for escaping everything close and familiar to me and plunging myself into the unknown. 
Unfortunately Vimeo doesn't let allow Embed coding from their site on Blogger (or at least I couldn't find a way to do it), but the links to these beautiful pieces of art can be found here and here.


What do you think of the videos? Have you been lucky enough to go travelling? I'd love to hear about any experiences you might like to share!
