Breakfast at Tiffany's isn't as much of a movie about travel as it is a movie about life in one of the best cities in the entire world. A young woman named Holly Golightly who loves fashion ends up falling head over heels in love with an aspiring writer who lives in the same New York City apartment building. It'll definitely make you want to head to The Big Apple to create your own love story, and to experience the amazing gems this city has to offer.
A young boy in India finds himself lost on a train ride. As a result, he is apart from his family for years before being adopted by an Australian family.

This movie proves that Paris is indeed always a good idea. When a couple heads to Paris on vacation, the young man, Gil Pender, ends up seeing a totally different side to the city (via time travel). As a writer, he ends up dancing with the idea of 1920s Paris when the clock strikes 12 every single night.
After graduating college, Christopher McCandless sells all of his belongings and sets off on a soul-searching journey across North America in this movie.
