Short travel quotes have become a popular way to express ones immediate feelings on social media, especially as an Instagram caption. Whether it be deep, funny or even adventurous – short travel quotes are here to stay.
I used to think using travel quotes were cliche until I really started traveling. Then they all made sense. They started to resonate on a deeper level with how I truly felt. Then I started thinking about all the writers who came up with these quotes and realized, they had felt deeply enough about their words and experiences to share them with the world. In those moments, I realized how profound quotes truly are.
If you are looking for an easy way to share your feelings about a destination, short travel quotes get to the point quickly and convey that message. What I am seeing a lot of on Instagram captions, is short travel quotes, followed by a more meaningful discussion or just the travel quote itself. I am no longer surprised by how well these travel quotes resonate with our audiences. I am personally more inclined to share funny travel quotes, but that is just my personality.
I picked 150 short travel quotes to share with you. I hope you will find the inspiration I found in them as well.
