About Me

Top
Welcome to my inspiration corner.
I would like to present you with a list of travel quotes I’ve compiled over the years, saving in my notes, or writing down in my diaries or calendars, and yes I do keep them for years. I like to go through them sometimes to see what was important for me during different stages of my life. Not only the ones referring to travel, but also life. Some of them got me through a very hard patches. I hope that you will be able to find a “Pick me up” for yourself.
