Wednesday's Words: A feeling that I belong...

This lyric carries a bundle of memories for me.  In my opinion is one of the most inspiring songs for anyone even contemplating long term travel for a millisecond. It reminds me that people travel for different reasons and not in order to arrive at a specific destination but for the journey itself.

The photo was taken last week as we drove through Belgium. As we left the flats of the Netherlands the land started to roll into dips and climbs and the colours changed too, from light, crisp greens and grey clouds to dark lush emeralds and saturated blue skies full of promise. 

What inspires you to hit the road?
