I usually don't do much travelling myself. I much prefer to immerse myself in stories, be it games or books. I have even thought travelling useless. Yet, I've recently come to a realisation. I see that it is by no means useless to travel, if a man wants to see something new. The enjoyment will follow if one simply has the right mindset. In fact, it's been my experience that you can nearly always enjoy things if you make up your mind firmly that you will. With that in mind, the next time I will travel will be wonderful.

I just now need to pick out a suitcase for my travels.

Spoiler for GA: Wanderlust: Travel Stories, LVL 2+

Hint 1: You need to figure out the colour and the number before looking at the picture.
Hint 2: My recent inspiration to travel and enjoy things has come forth because of a couple of books I have been reading.
Hint 3: Once you have the 5 characters, there is one piece of info to suggest the order to read them in.

I'm not sure what to do with the info I have, but it looks interesting. I'm too busy currently to spend time trying to figure it out, but that is fine since I am not interested in entering the giveaway. Thanks for telling us what game the giveaway is for :)

Totally lost but then I only slept 4 hours again so my brain is not at peak performance.
Have a bump

It seems no one has solved it yet, peak performance or otherwise. But I actually didn't even intend it to be difficult, just one of the steps is not the very intuitive I suppose, so that might be on me. I added another hint though, and will have to keep dropping hints, until it becomes obvious, if no one solves it.

Well now you have the approval and solved stamp of two of SG's master puzzlers so you can rest assured, it's not you ;)
As for me, I got at least the partial picture so it's now just a matter of crossing that finish line.
I'm almost there but it's not happening. Maybe I got the order wrong. I know I'm not in the wrong place so I'll keep digging

Well the game is on my wishlist, but you know, I've barely solved any of the recent streak of interesting puzzles that are appearing. So I'm surrendering before starting, I don't like banging my head against a (metaphorical) wall. My mind and mood have been under minimum the last two months.

There were 4 pieces of information to find:

  1. The word "Arabic" when hovering over the image on SG.
  2. The comment on imgur of "The one place I know I won't travel to this time is the United Kingdom.".
  3. Both this and 4. were book quotes found in my original text about travelling and about enjoying things.

    "I see that it is by no means useless to travel, if a man wants to see something new."

    • from "Around the World in Eighty Days" by Jules Verne
  4. The other book quote.

    "It's been my experience that you can nearly always enjoy things if you make up your mind firmly that you will."

    • from "Anne of Green Gables"* by L.M. Montgomery

I'm guessing selecting suitcase number 80 (Around the World in Eighty Days),
and picking the green characters (Anne of Green Gables)

but I'm also still missing the last step of figuring out the order (maybe Arabic => right-to-left ?)..
