If you’ve ‘liked’ The Well-Travelled Postcard’s Facebook Page, then you might have seen my #ThoughtsOnAPostcard series that I’ve been posting once a week, on a Thursday, on Facebook. On the back of a postcard I’ve been posting some of my favourite travel quotes, some of the quotes that inspire me the most. There are plenty more to come, but I thought I’d give you a round-up of the last 10 quotes, in case you missed any of them.

“All these places are permanent and yet are surrounded by transient life. They have a story of their own which reflects the depth of the human story, for they have read more of it than any of us.” – Dean Fischer

#ThoughtsOnAPostcard no.9

“Travel will make you appreciate the familiarity of home, it will restore your sense of childlike wonder for what was already there. And when you return, you will remember what it is to be truly alive again.” – Jessica Yurasek

#ThoughtsOnAPostcard no.10

“One of the gladdest moments of human life is the departure upon a distant journey into unknown lands. Shaking off with one mighty effort the fetters of habit, the leaden weight of routine, the cloak of many cares and the slavery of home, man feels at once more happy.” – Francis Bacon
