Traveling can often be hectic - the same can be true of daily life as we are working as most of us do the majority of our time. The best bit of advice I can offer is to go forth without great expectations and go with the flow. You are out of your element when abroad and must learn to respect what the universe has in store for you!
If you do not get a sense of calm after watching the time lapse video, I'd love to know what you felt.
I believe that everyone sees things differently and a lot of where we've been and what we've done shapes that.
May I suggest that you consciously breathe while watching it.

To me, practicing contentment doesn't necessarily mean you should retire to your sofa from here on out, rather one should throttle the mind and it's incessant urges to get what it wants yesterday.
