imageTravel certainly has its comedic moments, and yes, remembering to bring your sense of humor when visiting another city, state or country is almost always a good idea, but few people intentionally set out on a trip in search of slapstick. Not so with Conan O’Brien.

In fact, he’s taken his show “Late Night with Conan O’Brien” on the road many times in the past several years: to ostensibly reconnect with relatives in Ireland, do his best impression of a Finnish politician, and make puns with place names in Germany. So for those who prefer their journeying with a healthy dose of jocularity, point your web browsers to Travels With Conan, where short videos of Conan’s antics abroad can now be found.
