Playlist For Traveling

I'll set the scene for you.
Two girls, 3 continents, 5 months, 9 countries and countless cities and adventures. It deserved a decent travel play list. One to suit the long journeys whether it is on a plane, on a bus, a road trip through the Australian outback or an elephant ride in the deep Malaysian jungle.
Something to make us dance until we watch the sun rise behind those rocks in Ha long Bay, something to make that trek around the Angkor Wat temples a little bit more extraordinary, and something to gently put us to sleep while rocking in a hammock in Fiji.

So here is a quick taste of the soundtrack of what should be the best time ever.
