Imagine taking all your old books and creating these arresting and totally wanderlusty visions out of them… I love how Lords of the Ring-ish these book sculptures look! I would totally love to put them in my bookshelf (and perhaps put a Geografia globe next to one) and dream about my next trip. Check out…

I’ve been wanting to blog about this for awhile but hadn’t gotten around to it! Check out Terroir Magazine, a bi-annual bespoke magazine featuring the Singporean perspective of travel. 160 pgs painstakingly printed out on an inkjet printer and then handbound together, only 2 issues can be produced every week.

Do you have a favourite travelling poem or song? I’m often inspired by great photographs or anecdotes, but… by children’s poetry? Oh!
