184. Travel Like You’re in a Movie: Destinations That Feel Cinematic AF
Feb 09, 2026What if your next trip didn’t just take you somewhere new, but dropped you straight into a movie scene?
This episode explores travel destinations that feel inherently cinematic – places that make you pause, stare, and think, why does my life suddenly feel like a film trailer? From epic landscapes and sweeping vistas to cosy European cafés and storybook villages, this is about choosing locations that instantly activate Main Character Energy.
Forget chasing exact filming locations. This conversation is about travelling by genre – picking places that match the mood, energy, and storyline you want to live in. Whether you crave big-budget adventure, romantic slow cinema, gothic drama, or soulful “find yourself” energy, these destinations invite you to step fully into your own movie.
