Honest question: what's the fun in travel if you remove all uncertainty?
- cube2222 1y agoDifferent people like different things about travel. For instance, some might just want to relax in an environment far from their default, with the whole thing 100% planned so they don’t have any unnecessary stressors.
- fsloth 1y agoTry traveling as a family of four neurotics each of them prioritizing certain predictable parameters of the environment for comfort. The answer: you actually can enjoy travel. Or - a predictable framework allows space for spontaneous exploration.
- atonse 1y agoThe way we plan is a good mix. We leave no uncertainty when it comes to hotel rooms/AirBnBs and train/plane tickets. For a family of four in peak season, I don’t see any appeal to not knowing where we’d sleep at night and not having that already reserved. But within a particular destination (say we’re in X city or region for 5 days) we totally play it by ear. That includes “let’s check out this book store and coffee shop” or “let’s rent bikes today and ride around” It’s a good balance.
