I'm looking to compile a list of travel-oriented songs in any genre, specifically ones that hit on the independent, vagabonding, adventure, exploration style of traveling. Let's hear your suggestion! tag:ask.metafilter.com,2006:site.38436 Thu, 18 May 2006 09:52:37 -0800 exploration independent mp3 music songs travel vagabonding nitsuj http://ask.metafilter.com/34704/Food%2Dfor%2Dthe%2Dwandering%2Dmind In a while I will be going on a round the world trip to do a bit of soul searching (and to have a lot of fun of course). I'm looking for books on the subject of travel, not the pragmatically oriented genre, but philosophically and spiritually inclined ones. I'd like to read true stories about open-minded people backpacking around the globe and learning something about themselves and the world. I'd like to taste their joys as well as their disappointments, their insights as well as their confusion experienced during long-term world-wide travel. I'd appreciate it if you could include a one-line summary with your recommendations, for example:<br> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0375420827/metafilter-20/ref=nosim/">The Art of Travel</a> by <a href="http://alaindebotton.com/">Alain de Botton</a>: lighthearted, philosophically-inclined book about the peculiarities of travel.<br> <a href="http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/0517543052/metafilter-20/ref=nosim/">Be Here Now</a> by <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ram_Dass">Ram Dass</a>: successful Harvard psychologist ends up in India after experimenting with acid. tag:ask.metafilter.com,2006:site.34704 Mon, 20 Mar 2006 06:54:27 -0800 backpacking books philosophy rtw spirituality travel vagabonding koenie
