(by guest blogger Jason Biondo) Have you ever watched an inspiring film
that gave you a serious case of wanderlust? Movies are, in my book, one of the most
influential and powerful mediums for inspiring a trip to a far-off place. From awe-inspiring
landscapes to blissful and memorable adventures, movies can in many ways give
you an irresistible urge to travel and see the world. As a matter of fact,
motion pictures have encouraged countless of moviegoers from all corners of the
world to duplicate some of the scenes they’ve seen on the big screen with their
own escapades.
Looking for an inspiration for your next
vacation? Check out this list of movies that have moved thousands of travelers
to places all over the world in search of their own heavenly picture-perfect
paradise.
Wild
Wild is the inspirational and heartwarming
story of Cheryl Strayed – a courageous young woman who went on an eye-opening
1000-mile journey across the US, in the wake of her mother’s passing. Even
though Cheryl had no previous experience in backpacking and solo
traveling, she still was able to survive, flourish and conquer the famous
Pacific Crest Trail on her own with very little help. Filmed in Oregon’s Crater
Lake National Park and other picturesque places, this epic travel movie also
romanticized the unforgiving and magnificent grandeur of the Pacific Crest
Trail.
