Travel Pr0n - Stuck in Customs

Despite the fact that travel is probably more affordable than it has been in the history of the planet, and while hotel rates keep going up, airfares are dropping drastically, time is still a rare commodity when you’ve got a job like mine.

So, I always try to make sure I’m inspired by something every month to keep on making sure I dream a little, plan and plot some trips like I mean to, and just stay in awe of the fact it’s one big globe out there though small when you start moving, and as far as facebook is concerned, I’ve only covered about 11% of it.

Stuck in Customs was only added to my rss feeds at the end of last year, but the guy takes amazing photographs of inspirational and heartrending beauty that makes the bottom of my feet itch to be walking what he’s photographed, every time I check the feed.

And love some of the commentary on his own shots :

The Great Wall sprawls on and on - still the most impressive thing I have ever seen built by man. Four horses can go side by side while walking along the walls. I thought of all the European castles I have built where I would be standing on a wall and thinking, at the time, wow, this is really a big and impressive castle. But then one day you make it to the Great Wall and you think back - wow, I was really kinda out of the loop on this whole magnitude issue.

The rss feed is fantastic as it just serves you up a bit of travel pr0n every day for your tied-to-the-desk-at-the-mo soul, so once you check out the site, throw that into your feeds.
