how travel blogging ruins your life
Ok, ok, I admit it’s not that dramatic…it probably won’t ruin your life, but travel blogging may ruin your travels. I don’t spend too much time talking about blogging, but once in a while I use Tea Was Here as an outlet to talk about it – like here about Originality…
Love this post!!! I have to agree with number one “seeing the sunrise,” that is always a special, important experience for me wherever I travel… it grounds you and helps you realize however different or foreign the place we find ourselves in the familiarity of dawn and the beginning of a new day affects us all.

It’s JPei
And it also makes the little things grateful for travel 😀
Love the feeling of getting off the plane!

Such a great list! All these things are awesome, expecially the snore free hostel room!
Ah man this makes me want to go travelling so bad. Great post, as always. xx

Yup! Ironically, travel showed me how to enjoy the little, free things in life, and how to cherish moments we often take for granted while at home. Great post.
