We’ve received a great response to our idea of sharing a travel-related video each month. Now it’s time for the second installment of our Travel Video Series. This month we selected Magical Europe by the talented Stan Chang, a native of Taiwan. Stan traveled to 30 countries, took 60 airline flights, recorded over 1,000 time lapse videos, and shot over 200,000 images over a 2-year span to compile this video. This month’s video selection has been around a while and it is a popular one, with over 2 million views on Vimeo and over 1 million views on YouTube.

Full disclosure: This video is 4 minutes long (longer than what we might typically select), but with 75 different locales across Europe included, we feel that it covers quite a bit of ground, and is well worth 4 minutes of your time. How many of the locations can you recognize? (Tip: After watching the video and identifying as many as you can, scroll down and we provide you with a “key” of all the locations and time marks, so you can see how well you did.) We love the entire video (Ok, we admit it … we’re travel aficionados), but we especially love the increased drama around the 2-minute mark. Be sure to use headphones or a good set of speakers. Now, sit back and enjoy Magical Europe!
