I love the “Into the wild”. I have watched this movie couple of times and for months i was thinking to do the same thing as the character. I don’t know what holded me back, maybe too scared to do actually do it but this still remains a secret dream.

Thanks for the read!

Thanks for this thought-provoking story on movies and music that inspired us to travel in 2009. Last year, I watched the Bourne trilogy of movies again and again…

This is a great list!

I would also nominate several of the James Bond movies. A good one is Octopussy, which has some great scenes from around the area of Udaipur (India), as well as From Russia With Love, which takes place along the route of the Orient Express.

The movie that inspired me to take this year’s trip was “The Story of the Weeping Camel.” It is a Mongolian made movie and is so well acted that at times I thought it was a documentary. The cinimatography was really amazing; the beautiful landscape and sparse population really attracted me to Mongolia. Of course the trans-Siberian Railroad is a “must do” for any “veteran” traveller – so I thought I’d roll the two together. Mongolia turned out to be as spectacular as I imagined it after this movie…

I love the Bourne movie but my heart goes out to the Indiana Jones movie series ever since I was a kid. Watching the film made me feel that adventure was my calling and I wanted to go to exotic places like Africa, India, Cuba, Caribbean Island and much more. Thanks for sharing...love your blog...
