95 most inspirational travel quotes ever penned

Our favourite inspirational travel quotes have encouraged us to travel with abandon over the years. Perhaps they will do the same for you…

For us, there is no such thing as luxury travel; travel is, by default, a luxury. It is a privilege provided by the country of our birth, a privilege that many are not as fortunate to enjoy.

Sometimes, we have to pinch ourselves at just how ridiculous our lives have become: an ex-teacher and jobbing writer travelling the world for a living. It is absurd, it is astonishing, it is luxury.

When I first went travelling at 21 years old, my father gave me this quote scrawled on a piece of card.

It infused me with wanderlust. It encouraged me to get out of my comfort zone, make the most of my time, see the world and enjoy the freedom that comes with being on the road. It remains one of the most inspirational travel quotes I’ve read (even if Twain did not actually say it).

Today, 20 years and almost 100 countries later, it’s still in my wallet. Despite its tattered and dishevelled appearance, it’s every bit as important to me now as it was then.

With that in mind, we’ve collated our most beloved inspirational travel quotes to encourage readers to “explore, dream and discover” for themselves.

• Mark Twain Travel Quotes

Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the Earth all one’s lifetime.

To do something, say something, see something, before anybody else — these are the things that confer a pleasure compared with which other pleasures are tame and commonplace, other ecstasies cheap and trivial. Lifetimes of ecstasy crowded into a single moment.

It is the loveliest fleet of islands [ Hawaii ] that lies anchored in any ocean.

No alien land in all the world has any deep strong charm for me but that one [ Hawaii ], no other land could so longingly and so beseechingly haunt me, sleeping and waking, through half a lifetime, as that one has done. Other things leave me, but it abides; other things change, but it remains the same.   For me the balmy airs are always blowing, its summer seas flashing in the sun; the pulsing of its surfbeat is in my ear; I can see its garlanded crags, its leaping cascades, its plumy palms drowsing by the shore, its remote summits floating like islands above the cloud wrack; I can feel the spirit of its wildland solitudes, I can hear the splash of its brooks; in my nostrils still lives the breath of flowers that perished twenty years ago.

• Inspirational Travel Quotes

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all. — Helen Keller

Never let your memories be greater than your dreams. — Douglas Ivester

I beg young people to travel. If you don’t have a passport, get one. Take a summer, get a backpack and go to Delhi, go to Saigon, go to Bangkok, go to Kenya. Have your mind blown. Eat interesting food. Dig some interesting people. Have an adventure. Be careful. Come back and you’re going to see your country differently, you’re going to see your president differently, no matter who it is. — Henry Rollins

Because in the end, you won’t remember the time you spent working in an office or mowing your lawn. Climb that damn mountain. — Jack Kerouac

For my part, I travel not to go anywhere, but to go. I travel for travel’s sake. The great affair is to move; to feel the needs and hitches of our life more nearly; to come down off this feather-bed of civilization, and find the globe granite underfoot and strewn with cutting flints. — Robert Louis Stevenson

Stuff your eyes with wonder, live as if you’d drop dead in ten seconds. See the world. It’s more fantastic than any dream made or paid for in factories. — Ray Bradbury

Once in a while it really hits people that they don’t have to experience the world in the way they have been told to. — Alan Keightley

Every dreamer knows that it is entirely possible to be homesick for a place you’ve never been to, perhaps more homesick than for familiar ground. — Judith Thurman

Once you have traveled, the voyage never ends, but is played out over and over again in the quietest chambers. The mind can never break off from the journey. — Pat Conroy

No man is brave that has never walked a hundred miles. If you want to know the truth of who you are, walk until not a person knows your name. Travel is the great leveler, the great teacher, bitter as medicine, crueler than mirror-glass. A long stretch of road will teach you more about yourself than a hundred years of quiet. — Patrick Rothfuss

It is always sad to leave a place to which one knows one will never return. Such are the melancolies du voyage: perhaps they are one of the most rewarding things about traveling. — Gustave Flaubert

Although I deeply love oceans, deserts and other wild landscapes, it is only mountains that beckon me with that sort of painful magnetic pull to walk deeper and deeper into their beauty. They keep me continuously wanting to know more, feel more, see more. — Victoria Erickson

A journey is best measured in friends, rather than miles. — Tim Cahill

You will never be completely at home again, because part of your heart always will be elsewhere. That is the price you pay for the richness of loving and knowing people in more than one place. — Miriam Adeney

We are all travelers in the wilderness of this world, and the best we can find in our travels is an honest friend. — Robert Louis Stevenson

• Adventure Travel Quotes

Adventure is worthwhile in itself. — Amelia Earhart

If you think adventure is dangerous, try routine; it is lethal. — Paulo Coelho

Most of us abandoned the idea of a life full of adventure and travel sometime between puberty and our first job. Our dreams died under the dark weight of responsibility. Occasionally the old urge surfaces, and we label it with names that suggest psychological aberrations: the big chill, a midlife crisis. — Tim Cahill

Only by going alone in silence, without baggage, can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness. All other travel is mere dust and hotels and baggage and chatter. — John Muir

Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit, and as vital to our lives as water and good bread. — Edward Abbey

Once a journey is designed, equipped, and put in process, a new factor enters and takes over. A trip, a safari, an exploration, is an entity, different from all other journeys. It has personality, temperament, individuality, uniqueness. A journey is a person in itself; no two are alike. And all plans, safeguards, policing, and coercion are fruitless.   We find after years of struggle that we do not take a trip; a trip takes us. Tour masters, schedules, reservations, brass-bound and inevitable, dash themselves to wreckage on the personality of the trip. Only when this is recognized can the blown-in-the glass bum relax and go along with it. Only then do the frustrations fall away. In this a journey is like marriage. The certain way to be wrong is to think you control it. — John Steinbeck

What is that feeling when you’re driving away from people and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? – it’s the too-huge world vaulting us, and it’s good-bye. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies. — Jack Kerouac

A ship is safe in harbor, but that’s not what ships are for. — J.A. Shedd

It’s a terrible thing, I think, in life to wait until you’re ready. I have this feeling now that actually no one is ever ready to do anything. There is almost no such thing as ready. There is only now. And you may as well do it now. Generally speaking, now is as good a time as any. — Hugh Laurie

Adventure is a path. Real adventure – self-determined, self-motivated, often risky – forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world. The world the way it is, not the way you imagine it. Your body will collide with the Earth and you will bear witness. In this way you will be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and bottomless cruelty of humankind – and perhaps realize that you yourself are capable of both. This will change you. Nothing will ever again be black-and-white. — Mark Jenkins

The very basic core of a man’s living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun. — Christopher McCandless

Adventure is allowing the unexpected to happen to you. Exploration is experiencing what you have not experienced before. How can there be any adventure, any exploration, if you let somebody else – above all, a travel bureau – arrange everything before-hand? — Richard Aldington

Be careful because Cambodia is the most dangerous place you will ever visit. You will fall in love with it, and eventually it will break your heart. — Joel Brinkley

• Solo Travel Quotes

To awaken quite alone in a strange town is one of the most pleasant sensations in the world. — Freya Stark

Do not go where the path may lead; go instead where there is no path and leave a trail. — Unknown

I can’t think of anything that excites a greater sense of childlike wonder than to be in a country where you are ignorant of almost everything. Suddenly you are five years old again. You can’t read anything, you have only the most rudimentary sense of how things work, you can’t reliably cross a street without endangering your life. Your whole existence becomes a series of interesting guesses. — Bill Bryson

The true fruit of travel is perhaps the feeling of being nearly everywhere at home. — Freya Stark

When you’ve managed to stumble directly into the heart of the unknown – either through the misdirection of others, or better yet, through your own creative ineptitude – there is no one there to hold your hand or tell you what to do. In those bad lost moments, in the times when we are advised not to panic, we own the unknown, and the world belongs to us. The child within has full reign. Few of us are ever so free. — Tim Cahill

No one realizes how beautiful it is to travel until he comes home and rests his head on his old, familiar pillow. — Lin Yutang

He travels the fastest who travels alone. — Rudyard Kipling

Travel can be one of the most rewarding forms of introspection. — Lawrence Durrell

When the traveler goes alone he gets acquainted with himself. — Liberty Hyde Bailey

The man who goes alone can start today; but he who travels with another must wait till that other is ready. — Henry David Thoreau

I think one travels more usefully when they travel alone, because they reflect more. — Thomas Jefferson

Loving life is easy when you are abroad. Where no one knows you and you hold your life in your hands all alone, you are more master of yourself than at any other time. — Hannah Arendt

Personally I like going places where I don’t speak the language, don’t know anybody, don’t know my way around and don’t have any delusions that I’m in control. Disoriented, even frightened, I feel alive, awake in ways I never am at home. — Michael Mewshaw

I can speak to my soul only when the two of us are off exploring deserts or cities or mountains or roads. — Paulo Coelho

Afoot and light-hearted I take to the open road. Healthy, free, the world before me. The long brown path before me leading me wherever I choose. — Walt Whitman

• Anthony Bourdain Travel Quotes

If you’re twenty-two, physically fit, hungry to learn and be better, I urge you to travel – as far and as widely as possible. Sleep on floors if you have to. Find out how other people live and eat and cook. Learn from them – wherever you go.

Travel changes you. As you move through this life and this world you change things slightly, you leave marks behind, however small. And in return, life — and travel — leaves marks on you. Most of the time, those marks — on your body or on your heart — are beautiful. Often, though, they hurt.

It’s an irritating reality that many places and events defy description. Angkor Wat and Machu Picchu , for instance, seem to demand silence, like a love affair you can never talk about.   For a while after, you fumble for words, trying vainly to assemble a private narrative, an explanation, a comfortable way to frame where you’ve been and what’s happened. In the end, you’re just happy you were there — with your eyes open — and lived to see it.

Travel is about the gorgeous feeling of teetering in the unknown.

I’m a big believer in winging it. I’m a big believer that you’re never going to find the perfect city travel experience or the perfect meal without a constant willingness to experience a bad one. Letting the happy accident happen is what a lot of vacation itineraries miss, I think, and I’m always trying to push people to allow those things to happen rather than stick to some rigid itinerary.

Do we really want to travel in hermetically sealed popemobiles through the rural provinces of France, Mexico and the Far East, eating only in Hard Rock Cafes and McDonalds? … I know what I want. I want it all. I want to try everything once.

It seems that the more places I see and experience, the bigger I realize the world to be. The more I become aware of, the more I realize how relatively little I know of it, how many places I have still to go, how much more there is to learn.   Maybe that’s enlightenment enough – to know that there is no final resting place of the mind, no moment of smug clarity. Perhaps wisdom, at least for me, means realizing how small I am, and unwise, and how far I have yet to go.

I think food, culture, people and landscape are all absolutely inseparable.

Food is everything we are. It’s an extension of nationalist feeling, ethnic feeling, your personal history, your province, your region, your tribe, your grandma. It’s inseparable from those from the get-go.

Southeast Asia has a real grip on me. From the very first time I went there, it was a fulfillment of my childhood fantasies of the way travel should be.

I wanted adventures. I wanted to go up the Nung river to the heart of darkness in Cambodia . I wanted to ride out into a desert on camelback, sand and dunes in every direction, eat whole roasted lamb with my fingers. I wanted to kick snow off my boots in a Mafiya nightclub in Russia. I wanted to play with automatic weapons in Phnom Penh, recapture the past in a small oyster village in France, step into a seedy neon-lit pulqueria in rural Mexico. I wanted to run roadblocks in the middle of the night, blowing past angry militia with a handful of hurled Marlboro packs, experience fear, excitement, wonder.   I wanted kicks – the kind of melodramatic thrills and chills I’d yearned for since childhood, the kind of adventure I’d found as a little boy in the pages of my Tintin comic books. I wanted to see the world – and I wanted the world to be just like the movies.

At this point I think my body is like an old car. Another dent ain’t gonna make a whole lot of difference. At best it’s a reminder that you’re still alive and lucky as hell. Another tattoo, another thing you did, another place you’ve been.

Without experimentation, a willingness to ask questions and try new things, we shall surely become static, repetitive, and moribund.

If I’m an advocate for anything, it’s to move. As far as you can, as much as you can. Across the ocean, or simply across the river. The extent to which you can walk in someone else’s shoes or at least eat their food, it’s a plus for everybody. Open your mind, get up off the couch, move.

Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind.

Paul Heller has been a lifelong avid traveler and language learner and teacher, Even as a child, he told Santa Claus that he wanted to visit all the children worldwide. At seven years old, Paul wanted to retire to Mexico. At eight, he memorized the name, capital, location, and some facts about every country worldwide. At twelve, he found a book "Lonely Planet: Southeast Asia on a Shoestring" and started developing his own itinerary for a future round-the-world trip. He remained obsessed with travel; after getting a Master’s Degree in Public Administration from the University of Southern California and working as an administrator, He spent his vacations going to different countries around the globe studying language, touring, and volunteering. In 1994, he quit his job and lived in Russia as a volunteer English instructor. He discovered that he loved teaching languages. In 2004, he decided to make a living out of his travels and founded a community of people who love to travel just like him. He developed 5 three-hour classes about living and traveling long-term worldwide which he taught in over 50 adult education programs throughout the US. After his parents passed, he realized his dream of traveling around the world; cruising and touring some of the most remote places like the North Atlantic, Patagonia, and Oceania; and learning new languages (he knows Spanish, Italian, French, and Russian). Paul encourages everyone to learn foreign languages. He knows that it can be frustrating and slow but that anyone can learn a language if they put in the work and, most importantly, learning a language is well worth the time and effort because it opens up a whole new set of people, ideas, and cultures. He is currently spending the next chapter of his life in Mérida, México. He is excited about using this blog and his classes and workshops to inspire and equip fellow Fifty Plus Nomads with the language, cultural, and psychological skills necessary to be successful and happy long-term travelers and expats over 50.

On Eating in Italy

On italian culture, on italian cities, on falling in love with italy.

First up: the food. Who doesn’t like to talk about Italian food?

From pasta to prosciutto, Italian food is easily one of the world’s most treasured cuisines, and it’s incredibly easy to find food-centered quotes about Italy, because so many people love to talk about it!

“In Italy, they add work and life on to food and wine.” – Robin Leach

“In Italy, food is an expression of love. It is how you show those around you that you care for them. Having a love for food means you also have a love for those you are preparing it for and for yourself.” — Joe Bastianich

“You know, people come to Italy for all sorts of reasons, but when they stay, it’s for the same two things.”   “What?” “Love and gelato.” — Jenna Evans Welch

“The trouble with eating Italian food is that five or six days later you’re hungry again.” — George Miller

“I think people in Italy live their lives better than we do. It’s an older country, and they’ve learned to celebrate dinner and lunch, whereas we sort of eat as quickly as we can to get through it.” — George Clooney

“Everything you see I owe to pasta.” – Sophia Loren

“As they say in Italy, Italians were eating with a knife and fork when the French were still eating each other. The Medici family had to bring their Tuscan cooks up there so they could make something edible.”– Mario Batali

“Italy will always have the best food.” – Diane von Furstenberg

“I spent a college semester in a small town in Italy – and that is where I truly tasted food for the first time.”  – Alton Brown

“Life is a combination of magic and pasta.” — Federico Fellini

“So… Italian gelato. Take the deliciousness of a regular ice-cream cone, times it by a million, then sprinkle it with crushed-up unicorn horns.” — Jenna Evans Welch

What do you think of when you think of Italy quotes about Italian culture?

Food, family, Vespas? Fast drivers, beautiful language, and the Catholic Church?

There’s far more to Italian culture than what’s on the surface–but there’s no denying that the surface is an interesting place to start.

“In America, one must be something, but in Italy one can simply be.” — Pietros Maneos

“Nothing except time is wasted in Italy.” — Thomas Bailey Aldrich

“The most stylish country in the world is Italy.” — Nick Rhodes

“Your Italy and our Italia are not the same thing. Italy is a soft drug peddled in predictable packages, such as hills in the sunset, olive groves, lemon trees, white wine, and raven-haired girls. Italia, on the other hand, is a maze. It’s alluring, but complicated. It’s the kind of place that can have you fuming and then purring in the space of a hundred meters, or in the course of ten minutes. Italy is the only workshop in the world that can turn out both Botticellis and Berlusconis.” — Beppe Severgnini 

Psst: the above quote is from the book La Bella Figura: A Field Guide to the Italian Mind , which is a hilarious light read about Italy and Italian culture!

“I love the language, it sounds as if it should be writ on satin with syllables which breathe of the sweet South.” — George Gordon Noel Byron

“Everything in Italy that is particularly elegant and grand borders upon insanity and absurdity or at least is reminiscent of childhood.”  – Alexander Herzen

“If you can’t live longer, live deeper.” — Italian proverb

“Italy is the last country where people savor the joy of living. It makes us believe it even when Italy herself has ceased to believe.” — Roger Peyrefitte

“In Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias they had warfare, terror, murder, and bloodshed but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love; they had five hundred years of democracy and peace and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock.” – Orson Welles

Rome, Florence, Venice: these names are synonymous with Italy, but also with history, culture, distinctive architecture, and delicious food.

For a foreigner looking to fall in love with the country, quotes about Italy that are centered on these larger-than-life cities are often where to desire to visit starts (and also speak to why these cities are often at the top of the list for first-time Italy visitors): from the history of Rome to the landmarks of Venice , these cities are utterly captivating.

“Rome is not like any other city. It’s a majestic museum, a living room to tiptoe through.” — Alberto Sordi

“Rome is the city of echoes, the city of illusions, and the city of yearning.” — Giotto di Bondone

“Rome, the city of visible history.” – George Eliot

“If we could be reborn wherever we chose, how crowded Rome would be, populated by souls who had spent their previous lives longing to inhabit a villa on the Janiculum Hill.” — Francine Prose

“Italy has changed. But Rome is Rome.” — Robert De Niro

“Methinks I will not die quite happy without having seen something of that Rome.” — Sir Walter Scott

“Rome seems a comfort to those with the ambitious soul of an Artist or a Conqueror.” — Pietros Maneos

“Rome will exist as long as the Coliseum does; when the Coliseum falls, so will Rome; when Rome falls, so will the world.” — Venerable Bede

“Rome was mud and smoky skies; the rank smell of the Tiber and the exotically spiced cooking fires of a hundred different nationalities. Rome was white marble and gilding and heady perfumes; the blare of trumpets and the shrieking of market-women and the eternal, sub-aural hum of more people, speaking more languages than Gaius had ever imagined existed, crammed together on seven hills whose contours had long ago disappeared beneath this encrustation if humanity. Rome was the pulsing heart of the world.”  — Marion Zimmer Bradley

“To Rome, for everything.” — Miguel de Cervantes

“Rome was a poem pressed into service as a city.” — Anotole Broyard

On Florence

“You will begin to wonder that human daring every achieved anything so magnificent.” — John Ruskin (on Florence)

“Everything about Florence seems to be colored with a mild violet, like diluted wine.” – Henry James

“In Paris, you learn wit, in London you learn to crush your social rivals, and in Florence, you learn poise.” – Virgil Thomson

“Through these old streets I wander dreamily; Around me Florence sweeps her busy tide of life.” — William Leighton

“I do quite like sightseeing. I like churches, museums, galleries and all that stuff. I love the smell of a church in Italy or the smell of an old greasy spoon somewhere. I like markets and little funny shops in the backstreets of Florence.” — Ashley Jensen

“When I walk up the piazza of Santa Croce I feel as if it were not a Florentine nor an European church but a church built by and for the human race.” — Ralph Waldo Emerson

“To see the sun sink down, drowned on his pink and purple and golden floods, and overwhelm Florence with tides of color that make all the sharp lines dim and faint and turn the solid city to a city of dreams, is a sight to stir the coldest nature, and make a sympathetic one drunk with ecstasy.” — Mark Twain

“This was Venice, the flattering and suspect beauty this city, half fairy tale and half tourist trap, in whose insalubrious air the arts once rankly and voluptuously blossomed, where composers have been inspired to lulling tones of somniferous eroticism.” — Thomas Mann

“A realist, in Venice, would become a romantic by mere faithfulness to what he saw before him.” — Arthur Symons

“To build a city where it is impossible to build a city is madness in itself, but to build there one of the most elegant and grandest of cities is the madness of genius.” – Alexander Herzen (on Venice)

“Venice is like eating an entire box of chocolate liqueurs in one go.” — Truman Capote

“Venice, it’s temples and palaces did seem like fabrics of enchantment piled to heaven.” — Percy Bysshe Shelley

“The surface of Venice is constantly metamorphosing, and painting Venice is almost like being a restorer, peeling off the layers to find the picture after picture underneath.” — Arbit Blatas

“It is the city of mirrors, the city of mirages, at once solid and liquid, at once air and stone.” — Erica Jon (on Venice)

More On Italian Cities

“Italian cities have long been held up as ideals, not least by New Yorkers and Londoners enthralled by the ways their architecture gives beauty and meaning to everyday acts.” — Rebecca Solnit

“Italy will never be a normal country. Because Italy is Italy. If we were a normal country, we wouldn’t have Rome. We wouldn’t have Florence. We wouldn’t have the marvel that is Venice.” — Matteo Renzi

“Here we are at last. The Italian proverb says “See Naples and die” but I say, see Naples and live; for there seems a great deal worth living for.” — Arthur John Strutt

“Rome and New York were impressive, but they knew they were. They had the beauty of a vain woman who had squeezed herself into her favourite dress after hours of careful self-worship. There was a raw, feral beauty about this landscape that was totally unselfconscious but no less real…There was no pomp or vanity here; this was an innocent, natural beauty, the best kind, like a woman first thing in the morning, lit up by the sun streaming through a window, who doesn’t quite believe it when you tell her how beautiful she is.” — Leonardo Donofrio (on Tuscany–so technically not a city, but still a great quote about Italy.)

Here’s a not-so-secret fact: foreigners becoming enchanted with Italy is the farthest thing from unique. Millions of people do, every generation–and we are unashamedly and unabashedly among them.

These quotes about Italy (some by foreigners, some by Italians who adore their homeland) get down to some of the reasons why.

“Even now I miss Italy dearly, I dream about it every night.” — Eila Hiltunen

“When life gives you twists and turns, chique yourself up in Italy!” — Barbara Conelli

“Italy is a dream that keeps returning for the rest of your life.” — Anna Akhmatova

“A man who has not been in Italy is always conscious of an inferiority.” — Samuel Johnson

“The Creator made Italy from designs by Michaelangelo.” — Mark Twain, American writer.

“What is the fatal charm of Italy? What do we find there that can be found nowhere else? I believe it is a certain permission to be human, which other places, other countries, lost long ago.” — Erica Jong

“You may have the universe if I may have Italy.” — Giuseppe Verdi

“Italy and the spring and the first love all together should suffice to make the gloomiest person happy.” — Bertrand Russell

“One of the great joys of traveling through Italy is discovering firsthand that it is, indeed, a dream destination.” – Debra Levinson

“Traveling is the ruin of all happiness! There’s no looking at a building after seeing Italy.” — Fanny Burney

“How beautiful is sunset, when the glow of Heaven descends upon a land like thee, Thou Paradise of exiles, Italy!” — Percy Bysshe Shelley

“A man has not fully lived until he experiences that gentle balmy clime of ancient empires, the land of lemon trees and the genius of Michelangelo.”  — E.A. Bucchianeri

“I love places that have an incredible history. I love the Italian way of life. I love the food. I love the people. I love the attitudes of Italians.” – Elton John

“Open my heart and you will see Graved inside of it, “Italy.” – Robert Browning

“For us to go to Italy and to penetrate into Italy is like a most fascinating act of self-discovery.” – D.H. Lawrence

“We are all pilgrims who seek Italy.” — Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

“It’s easy to understand why the most beautiful poems about England in the spring were written by poets living in Italy at the time.” – Philip Dunne

“Occasionally she dreams of Italy.  She dreams of cheese shops, persnickety Fiats, and very fine leather goods.” — Kate Spade

About Kate Storm

In May 2016, I left my suburban life in the USA and became a full-time traveler. Since then, I have visited 50+ countries on 5 continents and lived in Portugal, developing a special love of traveling in Europe (especially Italy) along the way. Today, along with my husband Jeremy and dog Ranger, I’m working toward my eventual goal of splitting my life between Europe and the USA.

American travelers love to hit the road, with 1.8 billion people taking a leisure trip in 2018. And these travels don't come cheap: $1.1 trillion — yes, trillion! — was spent on travel last year alone.

With 195 countries in the world all hoping to attract (and cash in on) those billions of tourists, government agencies spend their money on campaigns that display the best of what their countries have to offer.

Using videos, social media, and advertising in print and online, along with slogans designed to inspire, European nations in particular have worked hard to get your attention. We've ranked 20 of the most prominent marketing campaigns there in recent history, from least to most inspiring. See if you agree!

20. Move Your Imagination - Poland

At the 2010 Internationale Tourismus-Borse (ITB) travel show in Berlin, Polish tourism officials shared a video with animated characters to drum up interest in visiting their country.  The characters were so popular that they were then used in collateral around the world to show off what the Poles already know: There's plenty to see in the country.

Today, the animated characters are no more, but that campaign's tagline — "Move Your Imagination" — has been adopted as Poland's official travel slogan. 

Verdict: What, exactly, does "Move Your Imagination" mean? Does it say anything specific about what makes Poland special? Or make you want to visit, which is ostensibly the whole point? Nah.

Be Inspired: Poland – Move Your Imagination

19. Think Hungary: More Than Expected

In 2012, Hungary welcomed 8.8 million tourists. The next year, in an effort to flaunt how awesome the country is, officials launched a promotional video campaign — and boosted that number to 9.3 million people. 

Today, the word is fully out, with nearly 13 million people enjoying the spoils of Hungary last year. There is more than expected in Hungary — like, to start, wineries, fabulous architecture, national parks, historic cities and excellent nightclubs.

Verdict: "More Than Expected" seems to sell itself short. It's like admitting "We're not France, but we're better than you'd expect." 

Be Inspired:  Think Hungary: More Than Expected

18. Jump into Ireland

Ireland's promotional videos, first launched in 2015, attempt to lure Americans like St. Patrick lured snakes (except into the country, and not out). It's estimated that the extensive campaign built around the idea of "jumping right in" to the Emerald Isle has reached 255 million people. 

That's a lot  of potential visitors who've watched imagery of the country's green landscapes, charming towns and scenic waterfronts. (Of course, pints of beer have also been prominently featured.) And seemingly, the campaign has been a success; more than 10 million people visited Ireland in the last year alone.

Verdict: "Jump into Ireland?" Like a leprechaun jumping? Or the sheep in the ad? We think you can do better, Ireland.

Be Inspired: Jump into Ireland

17. Spain in Detail

Spain turned to social media to market its hidden gems, asking travelers to discover 12 distinct destinations' smallest details, and to tag #spainindetail when spotting something to win a prize.

This 2015 campaign may have worked too well, as 82.8 million people visited Spain last year , and cities like Barcelona are dealing with overtourism.

Verdict: This one's a cute concept, but outside of hidden gems, "Spain in Detail" doesn't hold any real meaning.

Be Inspired: Spain in Detail

16. Get Natural - Switzerland

With eco-tourism and adventure tourism on the rise, Switzerland decided to reach out to travelers with images of the country's natural wonders, promoting outdoor vacations.

The Get Natural campaign, launched in 2017, has included a series of cheeky videos, including a viral hit that showed an office worker shedding his inhibitions in the Swiss wild. 

Designed to serve as inspiration for city-dwellers and nature-lovers alike, the campaign has been a success, increasing overnight stays in the country.

Verdict: Showcasing pretty pictures of Swiss' awesome natural scenery — including rock climbers sweeping the mountains — is a nice touch. But "Get Natural" just doesn't have the impact that other slogans on this list do.

Be Inspired: Switzerland: Get Natural

15. Arrive and Revive - Austria

The message for travelers is simple: Arrive in Austria, and you'll immediately begin to revive. The 2015 campaign allowed each area of Austria to showcase what it's renowned for, from the Alps to the charming cities, from the palaces to the mountain chalets.

The campaign has played an important role in an ongoing push to reach the American market. And thanks to continued video and social-media pushes, the number of Americans visiting has indeed been increasing year over year.

Verdict: We adore visiting Austria. But "Arrive and Revive"? Isn't a vacation anywhere supposed to revive us? 

Be Inspired: Austria. Arrive and Revive

14. I Wish I Was in Finland

A decade ago, Visit Finland launched a social-media push in which they asked people to share photos of where they were along with "I wish I was in Finland" graphics. People responded so well, it became the basis for the country's ongoing travel campaign.

In 2019, Visit Finland's newest initiative allowed you to " Rent a Finn ." Ten Finns from around the country were selected as "happiness guides" following the 2019 World Happiness Report, which found Finland to be the happiest nation on Earth. These guides spent the summer showing lucky travelers around, letting them discover just why everyone in Finland is so happy all the time.

Verdict: While it is certainly catchy, how many people have ever uttered the line, "I  wish I was in Finland"? France, we can see. The Greek Isles. A beach on the Mediterranean, definitely. But Finland? Not so much.

Be Inspired: I Wish I Was in Finland

13. Simply Inspiring - Germany

To promote the 16 different provinces of Germany in 2017, the government created the slogan "Simply Inspiring." Like other European nations, social media played a huge part in bringing in 13.5 million visitors .

This year, the country is continuing this campaign, along with the summertime #GermanSummerStories, which asks visitors to tag their summer vacation photos so others can be motivated to visit, too. 

Verdict: Germany is, in fact/no question, inspiring. Heck, Walt Disney even used a German castle as inspiration for Disneyland's centerpiece castle. The slogan, however, doesn't quite inspire.

Be Inspired: Germany: Simply Inspiring

12. Find Your Great Britain

Keeping the "GREAT" in Great Britain, Visit Britain's new ad campaign originally launched in 2012, the same year the Queen celebrated her Diamond Jubilee.

It continues today, highlighting the not-so-obvious places to visit in Britain. In 2018, the campaign began asking travelers " What do you travel for? " on Visit Britain's website, connecting users to top and unique places in the country. 

The campaign is listed as the government's " most ambitious international promotional campaign ever. " Verdict: "Find Your Great Britain" is simple but effective.  And we especially love that these ads focus on real people for a more intimate look at the country. Who wouldn't want to share a laugh with the friendly-looking folks featured in this campaign? 

Be Inspired: Find Your Great Britain

11. Find Your Epic - Wales

Before the "Find Your Great Britain" theme, Wales worked to bring tourists within its borders by placing a giant mirrored "Epic" somewhere in the country, then asking travelers to find it.

The art installation was moved around the nation throughout 2016, appearing on social media to show people what they were missing in Wales and inviting them to "Find Your Epic."

Verdict: This is such a cool concept that we're bummed it's not currently happening. Wales should keep this hide-and-seek game going!

Be Inspired: Find Your Epic: Visit Wales

10. A Spirit of Its Own - Scotland

Considering the country's official animal is a unicorn , it should come as no surprise that Scotland relishes its mysterious and mystical side with its slogan, "A Spirit of Its Own."

The country's first-ever global ad campaign launched in 2016 with videos accompanied by the Royal Scottish National Orchestra zooming in on mystical places like the Isle of Skye's fairy pools and the Isle of Lewis' Calanais Standing Stones (shown).

Verdict: Taunting us with places steeped in mystery and wonder will work every time.

Be Inspired: Scotland: A Spirit of Its Own

9. All Time Classic - Greece

One of Europe's oldest countries , Greece is revered for its history. During the 5th and 4th centuries BC, the Classical Greece era shaped the world's modern politics, architecture, literature, theater, scientific thought and philosophy. This is when Hippokrates founded modern medicine, Socrates established modern philosophy and Sophocles penned "Oedipus Rex" and "Antigone."

Harkening to its past has helped the country move into the future. The country is breaking travel records, with 33 million people visiting last year to see classical sites such as the Parthenon and Acropolis of Athens.

Verdict: Playing off its Classical Greece era, "All Time Classic" is the perfect travel slogan!

Be Inspired: Greece All Time Classic

8. Full of Life - Croatia

What better way to lure travelers than by musing about how our days should be filled with life, rather than our life filled with days? So true! 

Croatia threw out its old slogan , "The Mediterranean as it once was," and began highlighting the more modern, active and adventurous side of the country with its "Full of Life" campaign in 2015. With nearly 20 million people visiting the nation, it appears there are plenty of people who are taking the campaign's inspiring words to heart.  

Verdict:  Out with the old and in with the new always works. This slogan is truly full of life.

Be Inspired: Croatia Full of Life

7. Rendez Vous en France

It's funny to think that a decade ago, France needed to rebrand itself in order to maintain its spot as one of the top destinations in the world. But it did, and the effort has most definitely worked: 90 million people visited the country in 2018.

France's slogan uses the commonly known French phrase rendez vous en France (meet you in France). The still-used logo features Marianne, the national symbol of the French Revolution, with letters that create her arms and body, and the colors of the French tricolor flag creating her hair.

Verdict: Demonstrating a clever play on words, illustration and colors, this is a great slogan and logo. Point goes to France.

Be Inspired: Rendez vous in France

6. Land of Stories - Czech Republic

For its first-ever campaign in 2012, CzechTourism targeted Millennials, known for seeking experiences, culture and a chance to interact with locals to immersive themselves in a country. "Land of Stories" was launched to invite potential visitors to create their own stories, while also learning tales from the nation's history.

The Czech Republic had been behind the Iron Curtain until 1989, but in the 30 years since, it has become a leading destination for foreign visits, welcoming 10.6 million people in 2018 — a record!

Verdict: We continue to tell stories from a trip long after it has ended. Offering a way to collect new stories is a great lure.

Be Inspired: Czech Republic: Land of Stories

5. Powered By Nature - Norway

Visit Norway knew to focus on the country's best assets when it launched its campaign in 2012.

"Powered by Nature" videos, billboards and ads highlight the beauty of the country's fjords, waterfalls, lakes, mountains and more. The country even fills its airports with images of people enjoying nature, inspiring you to get out there and experience the wonder for yourself.

Norway's land is so sparse that for every square mile there are about 35 people , making it one of the least densely populated countries in the world. Plus, Norway's electricity is powered 98 percent by renewable sources.

Verdict: As slogans go, this one fits Norway to a tee.

Be Inspired:   Norway: Powered by Nature

4. Be Our Guest - Turkey

In case Turkey didn't give off the impression it really, really wanted you to come visit, perhaps its travel slogan provides a clue? 

Focusing on places within the country that visitors may not have heard of, Turkey rolled out the welcome wagon and got what it wanted. Last year, it was flooded with nearly 40 million  visitors.

Verdict: Welcoming us with open arms and getting the "Beauty and the Beast" song stuck in our heads? Clever. Very clever.

Be Inspired: Turkey: Be Our Guest

3. Made in Italy

So many fabulous things are made in Italy — from designer clothing to super-speedy sports cars, handcrafted leather to delicious wines — that it just made sense to create a travel campaign around the coveted words, "Made in Italy."

Launched in 2015, this program focused on culture and wellness, gastronomy and wine, medieval villages, mountains and parks, artistic cities, seas and lakes, and active getaways, all tailor-made for travelers.

Verdict: Not that we needed clever words to get us to go, but you have to admire this campaign's savvy play on words. Again, so many great things really are made in Italy!

Be Inspired: Made in Italy

2. I Feel sLOVEenia

Slovenia joined the world of travel marketing later than most of Europe, but when it did launch its new slogan in 2016, it filled it with "love."

This social-media campaign using the hashtag #ifeelsLOVEenia was the country's way of providing the world with 2 million reasons to visit. The hashtag was used by the tourism board, as well as locals and tourists alike to serve as ambassadors of Slovenian travel. 

By 2018, Slovenia welcomed 8 percent more travelers and 10 percent more overnight stays than the year before. In the same year, the country began to showcase itself as a destination for 5-star experiences.

Verdict: Sharing the love really does make us want to feel it, too!

Be Inspired: I Feel sLOVEnia

1. The Original Cool - Holland

The Holland Marketing Alliance unveiled its slogan in 2013: "Holland. The Original Cool." Television commercials and YouTube videos feature the cool-as-a-cucumber chief-of-cool ambassador, Pim de Koel, who attempts to teach viewers how to be as rad as the Dutch.

Showcasing the best of The Netherlands, the slogan highlights cities from Amsterdam to Rotterdam, as well as its cultural attractions and people, to great effect — Vincent Van Gogh was certainly one cool cat!

Verdict:  Teaching travelers how to be cool instead of just showing off the country's goods? Winner!

Be Inspired: Holland. The Original Cool

31 Mark Twain Quotes About Travel and the World As He Saw It

Mark Twain travel quotes that are all about pushing yourself outside your comfort zone.

Mark Twain’s words, in some ways, transcend time. Though he penned some of his best work from the 1870s to 1890s, his words feel genuinely applicable to our lives today. His humor, insight, and vast cultural knowledge are so spot on that some Mark Twain quotes feel like they were written in response to our lives in 2019. (Though, admittedly, his use of “shall” dates him a bit.)

When it comes to quotes about travel , Mark Twain will excite and inspire you, while simultaneously bringing you back to reality. Mark Twain’s famous quotes will give you courage, confidence, and a good laugh when you most need one.

Whether you have a quote on the tip of your tongue (trying to remember that one saying from Mark Twain, “travel is fatal to prejudice”… or something?) or you’re a Twain novice, we’ve got you covered. We gathered some of Twain’s best sayings, and verified their legitimacy with the Center for Mark Twain Studies .

Here are 31 essential Mark Twain quotes for every type of traveler:

Mark Twain Quotes About Travel

“Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.”

“It liberates the vandal to travel — you never saw a bigoted, opinionated, stubborn, narrow-minded, self-conceited, almighty mean man in your life but he had stuck in one place since he was born and thought God made the world and dyspepsia and bile for his especial comfort and satisfaction.”

“There is no unhappiness like the misery of sighting land (and work) again after a cheerful, careless voyage.”

“Take the universe as a whole, and it is a very clever conception and quite competently carried out, but I don’t think much of this globe as a work of art. It would have been better to take more time to it and do it right, it seems to me, than to rush it through, helter-skelter, in six days, just for reputation.”

“It is a subject that is bound to stir the pulses of any man one talks seriously to about, for in this age of inventive wonders all men have come to believe that in some genius' brain sleeps the solution of the grand problem of aerial navigation — and along with that belief is the hope that that genius will reveal his miracle before they die, and likewise a dread that he will poke off somewhere and die himself before he finds out that he has such a wonder lying dormant in his brain.”

“I have found out there ain't no surer way to find out whether you like people or hate them than to travel with them.”

Famous Quotes From Mark Twain’s Books

“In our day we don't allow a hundred and thirty years to elapse between glimpses of a marvel. If somebody should discover a creek in the county next to the one that the North Pole is in, Europe and America would start fifteen costly expeditions thither; one to explore the creek, and the other fourteen to hunt for each other.” — "Life on the Mississippi," 1883

"To do something, say something, see something, before anybody else — these are the things that confer a pleasure compared with other pleasures are tame and commonplace, other ecstasies cheap and trivial. Lifetimes of ecstasy crowded into a single moment." — "Innocents Abroad," 1869

"Consider well the proportion of things. It is better to be a young June-bug than an old bird of paradise." — “Pudd'nhead Wilson,” 1894

"One gets large impressions in boyhood, sometimes, which he has to fight against all his life." — "Innocents Abroad," 1869

"The elastic heart of youth cannot be compressed into one constrained shape long at a time." — "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer," 1876

"It is curious — the space-annihilating power of thought." — "Following the Equator,” 1897

“Be good and you will be lonesome.” ― “Following the Equator,” 1897

"Now and then we had a hope that if we lived and were good, God would permit us to be pirates." — "Life on the Mississippi," 1883

Mark Twain Quotes on Courage

“With courage you will dare to take risks, have the strength to be compassionate, and the wisdom to be humble. Courage is the foundation of integrity.”

“It is curious — curious that physical courage should be so common in the world, and moral courage so rare.”

“Courage is resistance to fear, mastery of fear — not absence of fear. Except a creature be part coward, it is not a compliment to say he is brave; it is merely a loose misapplication of the word.”

Mark Twain Quotes About Life

“It is noble to teach oneself, but still nobler to teach others — and less trouble.”

“Education consists mainly in what we have unlearned.”

“Everything has its limit — iron ore cannot be educated into gold.”

“What is the most rigorous law of our being? Growth.”

“I was seldom able to see an opportunity until it had ceased to be one.”

Funny Mark Twain Quotes

“Never refuse to do a kindness unless the act would work great injury to yourself, and never refuse to take a drink — under any circumstances.”

“Humor, to be comprehensible to anybody, must be built upon a foundation with which he is familiar. If he can't see the foundation the superstructure is to him merely a freak — like the Flatiron building without any visible means of support — something that ought to be arrested.”

“When your watch gets out of order you have a choice of two things to do: throw it in the fire or take it to the watch-tinker. The former is the quickest.”

“The funniest things are the forbidden.”

“Laughter without a tinge of philosophy is but a sneeze of humor. Genuine humor is replete with wisdom.”

“The only very marked difference between the average civilized man and the average savage is that the one is gilded and the other is painted.”

“Of course, no man is entirely in his right mind at any time.”

“When we remember we are all mad, the mysteries disappear and life stands explained.”

“There are no people who are quite so vulgar as the over-refined.”

A rolling stone gathers no moss

A friend in need is a friend indeed

A penny saved is a penny earned

An apple a day keeps the doctor away

A stitch in time saves nine

A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush

A watched pot never boils

All that glitters is not gold

Absence makes the heart grow fonder

A house divided against itself cannot stand

A picture is worth a thousand words

A little knowledge is a dangerous thing

A closed mouth catches no flies

A miss is as good as a mile

A leopard cannot change its spots

A friend to all is a friend to none

Barking dogs seldom bite

Blood is thicker than water

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

Better the devil you know than the devil you don’t

Better safe than sorry

Careful what you wish for

Clothes make the man

Curiosity killed the cat

Don’t judge a book by its cover

Don’t count your chickens before they hatch

Do unto others as you would have them do unto you

Easy come, easy go

Every cloud has a silver lining

Familiarity breeds contempt

Haste makes waste

If the mountain won’t come to Muhammad, then Muhammad must go to the mountain

If you can’t beat them, join them

It takes two to tango

Let bygones be bygones

Look before you leap

Might makes right

No man is an island

Two wrongs don’t make a right
