Description

Why are we drawn to real-life movie and book locations? In this episode, we unpack the magnetic pull of film sets, book settings, and the landscapes our favorite characters once walked—even if only in fiction. From misty moors to neon-lit city corners, there's something deeply human about wanting to step into the world we've imagined.


I also share my experience taking a storytelling-based color assessment (yes, that’s a thing) and how it revealed deeper layers of the stories I gravitate toward—and the places I’m pulled to visit because of them. It's a reflection on how narrative shapes our travels, our memory, and maybe even our identity.


From Velaris and the Night Court in ACOTAR (think Zermatt, Switzerland’s snowy peaks and charming villages) to the battlefields of Fourth Wing, and the castles and rugged landscapes of Scotland that remind us of Terrasen from Throne of Glass. These places, once confined to the pages of our favorite books, can come alive when we travel to them.


If you’ve ever traveled to places that feel like they came straight out of a movie set or BookTok or dream of walking through scenes that once felt fictional, this episode is for you.
