Similar to what I did for Shanghai, I compiled a list of the music I listened to on the trip. I believe one way to enforce your memories is not only by preserving images and sounds, but attaching them to songs you can play over and over again. I still think of sharks and a moving walkway whenever I hear "Don't Panic".
Yellow by Coldplay - Bright yellow balloons dancing in the concert, and riding a hot air balloon
Damaged by Plumb - first heard at Han's house, went on to give walking around the Bayon a mystic ambiance
Stunt by Raindrops and Push The Limits (ATB Remix) by Enigma - nothing better than club music to add adrenaline to walking city tours
Love On The Run by Chicane - gunning highways and chasing sunsets around Thailand
In My Place by Coldplay - Sunset at Hat Rin
Life Is Beautiful by Jason Mraz - catching my breath from city walking
Song For A Friend by Jason Mraz and Say Goodnight by Click Five - my goodnight songs
Porcelain by Moby, 24/7 by Artful Dodger/Melanie Blatt and No More Tears by Modjo - standard sunbathing songs
Colorblind by Counting Crows, Remember To Breathe by Dashboard Confessional and Listen To Your Heart (Unplugged Edit) by DHT - music to play during downtime
Just some of my personal tips on creating a playlist for a trip include: Also choose songs you're not familiar with - this would create a totally new perspective on what you hear and see on a first time basis.
