Top 10 (well, 7) Travel Movies

My favorite travel inspiration movies (that I have seen so far):


1. City of God: Beautifully made movie that will make you feel like you've been given a glimpse of the authentic side of life in Brazil. 




2. The Art of Travel: Somewhat cheesy in parts but definitely inspires leaving behind expectations and obligations to seek adventure and fulfillment. 

3. Motorcycle Diaries: What could be better than young Che on a motorcycle travelling through South America?

4. Into the Wild: Although not the ideal ending, I feel that many travelers share this sentiment of wanting to shed ties and restraints and venture off "into the wild."

5. The Beach: Classic backpacker film about discovering something completely hidden.

6. The Machine Gun Preacher: Not exactly about travel but about a man who gives up his life to go halfway around the world to help people. 

7. Y Tu Mamá También: Travel, sexual frustrations, and friendship.
