This book is a graceful compendium of the sorts of memorable moments and small pleasures that you carry with yourself long after the luggage has been unpacked at home. Voyagers as varied as Freya Stark, Lewis Carroll, Pico Iyer, and Dervla Murphy meditate on wanderlust and the allure of the exotic -- or the familiar, rediscovered. 365 Travel is a beautiful little collection that would make a perfect gift for the adventurers or daydreamers in your life.

This is a delightful book full of thought-provoking sentiments. Even those of us who only travel in our minds can find many pleasures in reading through the selections. Very rewarding and highly recommended.

This book is a true gift to the traveler at heart. Whether you are on the road or at home, it is a must for all who thirst for the magic of the world. This book drenches the soul with tantalizing moments of pure astonishment, absolute beauty and complete serenity day after day. I have read it from cover to cover several times and I am continuously inspired by its ability to free my soul to the far corners of the world and drink in the possibilities that every journey has to offer. Buy it and free your soul with every turn of the page!!

Stuck on the commuter train again? Sitting in the backseat of the carpool? Going out of your mind because you need a vacation sooooo badly?? Slap on some sunscreen (it's good for you!) and slip into the pages of Lisa Bach's "365 Travel" for a quick and refreshing journey to the great 'somewhere else'. Travel lovers will appreciate its resonant moments of pleasure and discovery. Travel dreamers will find inspiration for spinning those escapist fantasies ever more intricately. This is an excellent collection of stuff -- don't leave home without it!

This is an amazing collection of travel literature, and a wonderful introduction to both contemporary and classic travel writers. The editor has done a thorough and thoughtful job. I read a passage every day, and it gives me inspiration and ideas about where to travel next. It also has led me to numerous books that I now want to read. This is a FABULOUS gift for any travel lover in your life.

I loved this book, but wish it was more 'travel' size to be able to take with you on your own journey. It is an awkward size for holding in the hands and is bigger than most 'pocket' books. I hope they come out with a smaller edition in future years. I would definitely buy it.

An interesting hodge podge of stories, anecdotes, poems, etc. If one has a literary background and would recognize the names of the writers and storytellers featured, it makes the reading even more fun. Really need to be disciplined and read one a day since they are a gamut of topics and emotions.
