9/20. World Map

If your daily wake-up call is ‘where next?’, then this travel tattoo is ideal for you. You can even outline just the frame and fill in the center as you travel place by place creating a checklist and setting some sort of a reminder that places still await your visit.
10/20. Anchor

For all you love beaches where the deep sea, ships and anchors are part of the daily bliss, this world travel tattoo should be just your thing. Having this tattoo alongside a map of, or something representing your home also means – ‘home’; where your anchor is. Which essentially means that you can roam the globe but you’re anchored at home.

13/20. Space Objects

The sun, moon and stars are way higher than us and that’s all you’re looking at most of the time from the airplane while traveling the globe. How about receiving a travel tattoo of celestial bodies to remind your mind about their lovely views.

If you are a beach person and would like to get a full travel tattoo of the beach, do it rock star. It’s gorgeous and every time you glance at it, it will sing to you like it sings to ‘Mona”. And then again it’s time to pack those bags.
15/20. Shell

Most tourists pick up shells as they go but I’m positive sooner or later it’ll be taking up room and you can’t bring them with you wherever you go. Something you can take wherever though is a traveling tattoo. Jab that shell on and enjoy it every time you see it.
16/20. City

Wanderers and travelers always yearn for home. If you’re constantly in need of a ‘home call’ or some reminder of where you belong and where you are from, have a travel tattoo of your city. Okay, or you could have a travel tattoo of some lovely city that you love so much, whether it’s your home or otherwise.
