We thought it only fitting here at Inflicting Ink Traveling Tattoo, that we pay a little tribute to those with wanderlust in our ranks - the wearers and bearers of Travel Tattoos.
Travel tattoos are, as the name implies, tattoos that relate to travel. Far from being the sole enchantment of gypsies, bohemians, and road-trip junkies, travel tattoos are a way to commemorate a time in your life when freedom and seeing the world might have been the only thing on your mind.
Like the scrapbook that you carry with you, travel tattoos go where you go, and are the epitome of light traveling for those with the wandering spirit. At a time in your life when taking photos meant more luggage, the idea of an indelibly inked memory for each special locale could be the start of a beautiful friendship.
Many wandering folks see this as a way of life and shun the conventional idea of settling down in one place for long periods of time. For those who embrace this way of life as a companion rather than a visitor, the idea of documenting the journey through their lives is that much more appealing and poignant.
Oddly enough, those who have ink done as a way to commemorate traveling are also the least likely to experience tattoo regret and later wish to have the tattoo removed. Unlike the ex whose name you simply cannot take another day looking at, or the ill-planned tattoo ideas around 'we'll be friends forever', travel tattoos signify a time in our lives when there was perhaps nothing but our own ingenuity and friendship upon which to rely.
Rarely if ever, are the locations you visit while traveling and memorialize through your body art, the kinds of tattoos that will bring you sorrow down the road. If anything, these are the inspiration for campfire stories, and enhance the wrinkles of old age with their nostalgia and recollections of life on the road.
