This is a repost of a previous article. Due to COVID19, domestic and international travel is extremely limited. When all returns to normal, you will be ready to travel, so read below how you can create your future vacation plans.
Vacation planning is natural for some and difficult for others. Some people are adventurous and pick up and go at any time. Others have to think down to the minute details. Which of these persons are you when it comes to vacation planning? Either one must do some planning. Here are the five W’s of vacation planning: where, when, why, who, and what.
Where am I going? Take a look at a world map or maybe a U.S. or state map. A spontaneous person may point to a place on the globe and decide that’s it. A detailed person probably has a place in mind. People choose a location for a variety of reasons. However, knowing where you’re going is half the battle. Also, remember your budget and financial limitations when planning a vacation!
When and Why
When am I going? Next, set a departure and return date. How many days will you be away? The average person has a few things to consider when deciding a date. If you work, you must be sure you get the vacation time approved by your boss.
Perhaps you have a spouse and children. What dates are they available to travel? Or can your bae or favorite travel buddy get time off too? For those who go solo, no worries because you’re on your own. Also, think about when are the best travel deals and when it is the best season to travel to that location.
