Wednesday's Words: Let's fly away...

This photo was taken aboard an SAS flight to Copenhagen from  Bologna.

The words are from arguably the most instantly recognisable "Let's get out of here!" song. Put them together and it's a small slice of visual inspiration for anyone thinking about spreading their wings. In my previous life, the one before travel, whenever things got a little tough or I had a bad day I would look to the sky and think about flying away from it all. I would mentally list the number of places I would rather be and sometimes I would even do something about that by looking up flights or emailing a friend to see if they fancied a weekend away.

Of course, things are different nowadays. Now we are travelling long-term albeit slowly and the wanderlust is kept at bay but I do still have bad days and I still look up to the sky for inspiration and to let my imagination wander. The difference now is that the days are fewer and further between and I actually need the inspiration in order to pick our next destination..
