Or transport you straight back to a beach, a bus ride, or an open road on the other side of the world? In this solo episode I'm sharing the songs that have shaped my travel life — from the early days of dreaming about the world from my bedroom, through my first big adventure in 2013, all the way to life on the road today. Some of these songs painted pictures of places before I'd ever set foot there. Others are locked forever to a specific moment — a sweaty dance floor in Thailand, a hungover bus ride through New Zealand, a road trip across Canada that changed everything. Seven songs. A lifetime of wanderlust. And one or two choices that might genuinely surprise you. Whether you're a seasoned traveller or still dreaming of that first big trip, this one might just make you want to book a flight, hire a campervan and disappear. 🎵 Matt Monro 🎵 Kid Francescoli 🎵 David Guetta feat.
