30 Inspiring Travel Quotes to Get You Moving

It’s easy to put your travel dreams in the back of your mind and force yourself to trudge on with the mundane and unfulfilling things most of us occupy our lives with every day.

Too easy, isn’t it?

That’s why I decided to put together this compilation of travel quotes today. It’s officially half way through Monday here in EST land.

What are you doing right now?

Perhaps deciding whether you want to eat chicken or fish for dinner tonight — or what television show you’ll boot up on the DVR before bed?

Hopefully at least a few of these will resonate and you can decide instead whether you’re going to head to Fiji or Hawaii this weekend for some sun and sand!

Enjoy and be inspired:
