Book: Around the world in 80 days
Song: Voyage Voyage by Desireless

I had the song first but didn‘t want a non-fiction travel book. So I thought a reread of Verne after watching David Tennant‘s portrayal of Phileas Fogg. The show was fabulous if very different from the book. The song I first heard in a night club in France. I was 11! but that‘s a story for another day. #Titlesandtunes

Cinfhen I think I NEED to know the story….it sounds too good to miss 😁excellent pairing🙌🏻 1y
Cuilin @Cinfhen Picture 15 Irish and 15 French exchange students. Most were between the ages of 14 to 18. Being the youngest at 11, when they wanted to go to a club they would surround me so the bouncer wouldn‘t notice my age. I‘d get in and just be in awe of this grown up world. I still love 80‘s French Pop music. Entrance gave you tickets for booze but I didn‘t drink but definitely danced. 1y
Cinfhen That‘s great! Fun memories for sure 😉 1y

I enjoyed this book, but I found it very frustrating that Phileas Fogg didn't get out and explore all the amazing places he went. Especially right now, when I'm not sure when I'll be able to travel internationally again.
