The Emotional Impact of Travel Photos: Reconnecting with Our Favorite Destinations
A few weeks ago, Matt Haig, author ofReasons to Stay Alive, admitted to his Twitter followers that he had an urge to see old holiday photos. In the same tweet, he asked if any of his followers had a picture from their “favourite holiday ever.” Nearly 2000 people replied with snaps from around the world: an unflattering selfie at the Acropolis in Athens; a blurry Notre Dame de Paris at night; nuns enjoying ice cream at the Trevi Fountain in Rome. These thoughtful, fun pictures showcase cherished travel memories.
