7 Movies That Make You Feel Like You're Somewhere Else

Some movies have the ability to transport you to completely different places.

Amélie

Looking to brush up on your French? Or do you just have an overwhelming urge to leave your house and travel? Either way, not to worry… there are English subtitles. Amelie is a surprisingly un-corny story about a twenty-something waitress finding love in 1990s Paris. Pay attention to the fashion and the moody French soundtrack.

Casablanca

"Here's looking at you kid...." Yes, it's black and white. Yes, the characters have weird accents (even though they are supposed to be American). But this dramatic, wartime story truly transports you to 1940s Morocco.

Roman Holiday

Also black and white. I know. But trust me on this- Roman Holiday is one of the most iconic travel movies ever created. There are scenes shot at almost every famous monument and tourist attraction in Rome. Pay attention to Audrey Hepburn's outfits!

To Catch A Thief

This movie is an inspiring but forbidden romance that takes place in the beautiful French Riviera. Again, pay attention to the fashion!

Moana

Okay, I know it's a kid's movie… but it still makes you feel like you're in Hawaii. The quality of the animation is unreal.

The Secret Life of Walter Mitty

A very light-hearted movie that features some of the coolest destinations on earth: New York, Greenland, Iceland, Yemen, and Afghanistan. Watch it.

Rocky (all of them!)

Missing Villanova and Philadelphia? I'm sure we've all taken the SEPTA into 30th street to run up and down the famous steps. Rocky will take you back to an iconic, 1970s Philly that's totally different from the one that we know.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Sorority Girls

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
