Even if you’re admittedly not a morning person, there’s something undoubtedly beautiful and peaceful about getting to see the sun rise. But if you’re a tried-and-true night owl who simply can’t fathom the thought of waking up before the sun, there’s a way for you to enjoy some of the most beautiful sunrises in the entire world — all without leaving your desk, couch, or workspace.

The luxury travel company Unforgettable Travel now features sunrises around the world on its website, showing off 24 stunning sunrise shots that automatically change each hour of the day. Simply keep the tab open as you work, or bookmark it for anytime you need a moment of calm and mindfulness throughout your day, and enjoy the treat of some of the most incredible views at locations you’ll want to add to your travel bucket list for jet setting inspiration aplenty.

And sure, although nothing beats getting to actually enjoy the sunrise over Machu Picchu or to set up camp high above the hills in Los Angeles as the sun fills the sky, it would likely take winning the lottery to actually get to all 24 places in the foreseeable future. Thankfully, you can simply hit ‘refresh’ on this trusty tool, catching a free glimpse at vibrant, colorful sunrises from the famed Sydney Opera House in Australia to the breathtaking top of Mount Fuji in Japan and even dreamy stateside locations such as Moose Pass, Alaska and the calm, clear waters of Hawaii.

With a different view each time you refresh, you’re sure to find something new to discover with each virtual visit — and perhaps you’ll find new places you hope to explore some day in the future. Being awake before the sun does have some benefits, and these photos are a great reminder of the natural beauty that unfolds around the world every single morning… even when you’re fast asleep through it all.
