I think is the best way to fully connect to the place you're traveling to, because you get to meet locals, and get to know the real places. The people who actually live there.

I'm always listening to music, and I'll be happy with almost anything. Bit of an Arctic Monkeys groupie, love Franz Ferdinand and Passenger, Leon Bridges and Daughter. Labrinth makes me shiver and Shura and Oh Wonder give me thrills. I am not really a very cinema person, but I am sucker for musicals. Probably an all time favorite will be Love Actually (yes, go ahead and judge me). I loved Memento, everything Disney related, Snatch and documentaries. Paul Auster and Isabel Allende are my favorite authors, I absolutely live for A Song of Ice and Fire, and have loved Evening News, Tell me no lies, The Stranger, Brave New World, and anything that Haruki Murakami has written.
