I can't imagine going without music! Unfortunately, creating the right playlist is not an easy task. Out of the many genres that I love and the million songs that follow it, it's not easy to choose something and I always have a problem with that.
What to consider when creating such a list? Certainly, the songs should be catchy and everyone should know them, so that they can sing them together on the road and by the fire. Ideally, the list should be around 300-400 songs, we don't want to listen to one song over and over again.
We have to try hard to avoid the words: "nice song, but what's next on this playlist"
Here is a list of 150 songs that are perfect for a journey. Maybe they will also inspire you, or make it easier to create a playlist!
