Your favourite travel book/movie of all time.

A piece of advice for all the wanderlust-ERS out there.
Be receptive. Mute your prejudices. Search, find, examine and then retell your own stories about people, places, and culture. Because if you’re going to say what ‘everyone else’ is already saying, what are you contributing to?
