The playlist compiled for a trip is just as important as the clothes in the suitcase and the snacks in the carry on. Choosing the right music makes the horribly slow boarding process bearable, muffles the crying infant in the front row and prepares the mind and body for the change in weather, culture and cuisine that occurs after leaving the airport. It sets the mood for the incoming adventures.
