  3. Less Stress – Having trips mapped out means no last-minute scrambling.

  4. Balance – You can spread out your adventures, wellness time, and family travel across the year.

  5. Something to Look Forward To – Planning your calendar of trips keeps motivation and excitement alive year-round.

Simple Steps to Map Your Year of Travel

  1. Look at Your Calendar
    Mark major dates first—holidays, birthdays, graduations, work commitments—so you know when you’re free to travel.

  2. Set Your Travel Priorities
    Decide what’s most important this year: family time, wellness retreats, adventure, cultural experiences, or relaxation.

  3. Choose Destinations
    Pick a mix of big trips (bucket-list or international) and short getaways (weekend or long weekend escapes).

  4. Align with Seasons & Events

    • Winter: Warm getaways or holiday markets.

    • Spring: Wellness retreats, active trips.

    • Summer: Family vacations, Europe or U.S. road trips.

    • Fall: Cultural or foodie travel, shoulder-season savings.

  5. Budget & Space It Out
    Spread trips through the year so you don’t overspend or over-travel in one season.

  6. Book in Tiers

    • Now: Big trips & bucket-list travel.

    • 3–6 months out: Regional vacations, cruises, or family trips.

    • 1–3 months out: Quick getaways, wellness weekends.

  7. Add Fun Extras
    Sprinkle in special events—concerts, festivals, or spa retreats—to enhance your year.

  8. Check-In Quarterly
    Revisit your plan every 3 months to confirm bookings, adjust dates, or add something spontaneous.

Example: Balanced Travel Year

  • January/February: Warm-weather beach escape
