@kate_frankie Start early is the trick.
I need to find an evening when I'm not exhausted by m work day and I often panic when I don't find an ideal itinerary, so I need time

@kate_frankie A4: Motivation comes this way: you do it or you don't travel. It usually works. 😁
My tip is: make use of the "down times". For example when I take the metro to go to work: it's a good time to look for materials, send emails and so on.

Plan ahead and follow the priorities you have set. Ask for help when you need it. Getting stressed won’t help.

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A5 Perseverance! At the Grand Canyon last December we arrived at the East gate just as they closed the gates due to icy conditions. We had reservations at Grand Canyon Village, so we drove 4 hours in the dark through snow storms to get there via Flagstaff. #PTTravel

@kate_frankie A5: 😱😱😱😱😱
So far it only happened to me that a single day went wrong. Not the whole trip.
I usually try to put "buffer times" to prevent that.
Tip: never go too far the day you need to get a flight.
