To muse: to be absorbed in thought.

To wander: to move away leisurely from that which is fixed, aimlessly into new corners of the unknown.

To do both simultaneously – to explore with consciousness of culture, identity, and memory – will profoundly change the way you travel and experience this world.

Muse + Wander is an archive of travel journals written by Issabella Orlando.

It aimed to explore cultural heritage and integrate it within the context of travel. Through these musings, you are invited to move thoughtfully through cities and spaces, tune into unique regional culture, memory and identity, and ultimately become more deeply connected to the places you go and the people you meet.

Travel and heritage bring us closer to the cultural pulse of the world around us. This is your guide to both.
