“And the hits just keep on coming”… Global Connections, Inc. (GCI) has shared Global Discovery Vacations members favorite road trip play lists that range from classics to indie rock.
According to Corey Thibodeaux, online content manager for GCI, “Music is one of those art forms that permeates every aspect of our lives from entertainment to exercise to ambiance. And travel is no stranger to music, with many artists drawing inspirations from their time on the road or in memories of home. We started sharing some of our staff favorites and members were inspired to send in their own favorites. We rewarded some of our member contributions with a set of Global head phones.”
As escolhas musicais globais incluíram “On the Road Again” de Willie Nelson, “Ramblin' Man” de Allman Brothers, “I’m Gonna Be (500 Miles)” de The Proclaimers, “Holiday Road” de Lyndsay Buckingham e Johnny Cash fazendo “I' Já estive em todos os lugares”, para citar alguns.
Other suggestions from the Global staff for great tunes to hit the road were: Red Hot Chile Peppers – “Around the World,” OneRepublic’s “Good Life,” Lissie’s “Wild West” and Mumford and Sons’ “Hopeless Wanderer.”
“Our entries were all over the map, figuratively and literally,” said Corey. “Global member’s play lists included artists such as Lenny Kravitz, Jimmy Buffet, Don Williams, The Beach Boys and Alice Cooper. Quite eclectic!”
Member engagement contests and social media participation are sources of pride for GCI. The musical suggestions sent by members were filled with their enthusiasm for vacationing and traveling with Global. The social media team was flooded with messages such as these throughout the Road Trip Play List promotion:
“Em uma recente viagem de três dias, Alice Cooper, Kiss, Rob Zombie e The Doors brincaram para navegar pelas duas faixas de caminhões, outros carros e belas paisagens de Michigan ao Texas.”

As músicas da Zac Brown Band me fazem querer ir para a praia com a Global Discovery Vacations:
'Desejando estar com água até os joelhos em algum lugar!
Tenho o céu azul, a brisa soprando no meu cabelo, a única preocupação no mundo é que a maré vai chegar na minha cadeira.
Mente em férias permanentes,
O oceano é meu único remédio
Desejando que minha condição nunca desapareça.
Só viajo para lugares com água. Indo para Cape Cod em outubro com GDV.
–Laura K.
“Com nossa grande família, dirigimos para a maioria dos destinos da Global Discovery Vacations. Alguns de nossos favoritos são 'Can't Stop the Feeling', 'Shake It Off', 'Lost Boy', 'Girls Just Want to Have Fun'. Eles nos preparam para toda a diversão!”
-Dean R.
“Our members are a great bunch of people and we love finding out more about who they are, what they like doing on vacation and what they listen to,” says Corey. The Play List promotion was one of our more popular events and we’ll add this to our list of ongoing programs.”
