Sometimes I'll play ambient travel YouTube while editing photos, this video by Kuga's Travels covering a superfancy train ride in Switzerland is going on the bucket list. Though I think I'd be happy with a regular ol' train ride to St. Moritz.

My friend Kathryn said they stopped here on their way driving back from Chicago and it was totally worth it. Adding to the travel list.

The ticketing lottery would make it challenging, but I'm adding this destination to the dream bucket list if I find myself in Kyoto, Japan / via Uncrate

My friend just went through Yosemite and bought an audio tour guide from here that syncs with the offline map and said it elevated the entire travel experience immeasurably. Most of their tours are in the US with lots of National Parks available. Saving for later!

(Very reasonable) luggage storage all over the world. Drop your bags off at hotels and stores and go explore cities before you have to scoot (or while you're waiting for check-in times that are always so late.)

Wendy showed me this app and how she's been using it to organize trips and it looked really smart. Forward travel emails and it will intelligently organize a trip folio that is shareable with area recommendations.

It only took a month, but I've sifted through 1548 photos from our trip in April and have settled on this set (which would benefit from further whittling).

When I visit Palm Springs again I very much would like to stay here at least once. A collab between Trixie Mattel, their partner and The Property Brothers, a series about the renovation of the motel was captured with a tv show. (Adding to the queue.)

In 2022 Jan-Paul Koudstaal drove through some beautiful parts of Canada. I had a few of these locations on my bucket list, but now I just want to take this exact trip.

I've had this tab open long enough that I know I need to save it and move on. I already have oodles of places to consider in Palm Springs, but oh my word, THIS ONE! It could be a retreat!

I can't tell if TimeOut perpetually updates this (extensive) list, but it seems that way. / tipping my hat to Thor (who I consider a Thorguide all on his own.)

With locations in San José del Cabo, Santa Barbara, Palm Springs and Nashville soon, these hotels look zen. / via Naz

I would consider a roadtrip to visit this Taco Bell. / via Polygon

My friend Dan posted a photo from this hotel’s restaurant at dinner and I’m adding it to my bucket list

The world’s first cheese conveyor belt restaurant in the heart of London’s West End. You know, if I ever get to London and see that ABBA show. / via Matt Haughey

Swiped through photos on Uncrate and added this place to the bucket list. More snapshots and insight on dezeen

Work a year remotely in Italy? That sounds lovely! / via Bernie Michalik

I saw the photos in this tweet and promptly started researching this panoramic Swiss rail line that goes up into the alps and back down into Italy.

And which trails to ride in Copenhagen, Bogotá, New York City, Paris, Washington, D.C., Geneva, San Francisco / via Belong

A bookable, fanciful train with several day trip options in England. (The short video showing a few bits of the inlaid wood creation is quite lovely.)

I'm glad the parks are getting visitors, but maybe we need more of them... (The photos and videos for this article illustrate the overcrowding quite well.)

Airstreams, modern mini cabins, a drive-in, general store, pool, campfire storytelling. Southern Utah. Adding the the big list of places I would enjoy visiting.

Glad it wasn't razed for a parking lot. Another thing to add to the list of places I would very much love to visit.

Paul Bausch has the right idea. Plan a camping trip based on this map.

I dig the Free Tours by Foot channel. I didn't know they were reporting the adjusted Mardi Gras this year.

What a great way to feel slightly human than by enjoying a nicely put together walking tour.

Beautiful space to rent for a getaway up in the Amish Country outside of Cleveland. / via Nick

To watch

Pretty sure this is NOT going on my todo list next time I'm in NYC.

An annual retreat hosted by Craig Mod and Jan Chipchase, will take place in Yoshino, Nara Prefecture, deep in timber country, shouldered by pine and cedar forests and rolling mountains dotted by ancient hot springs. Applications are open

Four years ago I did a tour of Japan, these are some of the photos. It was wonderful to reflect on the experience and put it together on Exposure. They keep making this photo story tool better and better.

American Museum of Natural History (NYC) / adding to list if I get back there.

I saw the movie Popeye at age 9. (I thought it was magical back then.) I always thought it would be fun to go to the place it was filmed. I guess you still can? / via @ADuralde

Hmmm. So it's like corporate AirBnB? I'll report back how this experience goes!

I love when Phil posts to his blog.

I saw a few videos of this Italian seaside village on the TikTok and I'm filing it away as it looks beautiful (and stacked). File under: ToGo

Oooo boy. This is a good list!

YES TO THIS / via SwissMiss

This year-long journey across the U.S. keeps you at consistent high temperatures. (Note: I think I would prefer a trip that was more about 60 degree weather) / via Thor

Stash your bags when traveling (limited US cities for now)

AirBNB for campervans and RVs

A new (iOS) app for tracking flights

Well designed information for locales

I say, live life without a hashtag.

Saving this for later

My friend Katherine was just here and sent a photo that was amazing. Putting it on my list for my next trip to Georgia.

has a font. (Also? I very much want to stay here)

A journey from Cambodia to Vietnam illustrated by Christoph Niemann. Lovely

My sister lives in Buffalo, I want to go there for all new reasons now!

Want to save a really good amount of money when renting a car while traveling? Rent directly from Toyota. Lifehack via Grace Dobush

I'm digging deep into posters for activism if you haven't noticed. Poster House opens 2019 in NYC. I want to go to there. /via Thor

Verified homes for style, comfort and amenities

features views from 100 different windows around the city. LOVE THIS / via Swiss-Miss

Just heard this service is really, really, really inexpensive for travels who can go somewhere exotic in short notice.

I think I need to add a life goal to visit each and every one

Want to go to there

Another place on my tovisit list thanks to DJ & Megan's trip

DJ said this was one of the best meals he's had, hiking nearby, overall beautiful. Filing undo todo
