Most of these songs don’t really talk about traveling, but they remind me of travel because I would listen to them on the plane or on the bus, because I associate them in a certain place, because I discovered them on the road, or because I associate them with a travel movie. So here are my favorite travel songs :)
Wait - M83
Midnight city - M83 (I’ve been jamming to this song on buses for months)
The lonesome boatman - Dropkick Murphys (my favorite song for hiking)
Especially me - Low (the best song to listen to when you’re trying to fall asleep on a night bus)
Home - Passenger
Der einsame Hirte - Leo Rojas (this is the song I woke up to every day while I was in Peru, so I can say that I know this song pretty well ^^)
El condor pasa - Simon & Garfunkel
Come together - Aerosmith (I discovered this song at a concert in Uruguay, there are many versions of it and now it’s my “Uruguay song”)
Leaving tomorrow - Bastian Baker
Hotel California - Eagles
Long nights - Eddie Vedder
Hard sun - Eddie Vedder
Guaranteed - Eddie Vedder
Dream - Imagine dragons
Song for a dream - Indochine
J’t’enmène au vent - Louise Attaque (this song is special to me because this is the song we would listen to all the time in the family car when I was a kid and we went on holidays)
Ch’Uwa Yaku Kawsaypuni - Luzmila Carpio
Porque te vas - Los Pukas (to be honest, I don’t like this song that much but I heard it in EVERY bus I’ve took in Peru so now I feel very nostalgic every time I listen to it)

Desert rose - Sting
Like gold - Vance Joy

“Every time you say her beauty is only beauty because she is broken, her mournful is her pretty, how the right man will fix her, she bares her teeth. She summons Athena from the marrow of her bones, she calls upon Artemis and her wolves to sharpen her claws, she brings out Nemesis in her eyes, a determination so powerful it could turn the sky storm black, and then she looks at you and asks, “Do you really think I need a man to fix me when the Goddesses have my back?””
— Nikita Gill, If You Romanticise My Broken, My Broken Will Bite Back.
They say we are the unattached people of this generation but they don't know that we are the same people who cry behind closed doors.
“The beauty of her was how interchangeable she was. She was off balance. In contrast with herself. She was both happy and sad. Both hot and cold. Her skin was dusted with night stars but still carried the glow of a sun. Her body moved like the waves of the ocean yet her eyes were lit by fires. She was everything this world was made up of from its purest light to its abyss of darkness. Such beauty is a rare sight to see.”
