replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A5. I dread disruption until it happens, at which point I realise I like nothing better. All of my favourite trips have coincided with freak snowstorms. #PTTravel

A5 normally a back up - when our plane couldn't fly back to Tbilisi last Easter we took the 10 hour bus journey. #pttravel

A5 #PTTravel It's never really happened to me. The Isle of Tiree was a work trip ... so, when the ferry cancelled, I just got to spend an extra couple of days on a beautiful island.

A5 Getting a trip back on track is one way to put it. More than 30 years ago in Germany, I had to improvise when the first half of my train continued to my destination, but not me. Again, who knew Europeans divide trains? #PTTravel

If I'm excited, motivation is easy.
If I'm tired, working a lot and away or feeling anxious, motivation is nowhere to be found.
Travel is something I'm very grateful to be able to do so I go back to that thought and keep going

I'm good at contingency plans and just problem solving so not really too stressed.
I expect at least one thing to go wrong or change and I just take care of it by re-booking a flight or going to a different hotel etc

A5 #PTTravel (more) I remember getting stressed out by a slight snowstorm. I rang & asked the airline if the flight was still on, & was told 'Of course it is! It isn't snowing in Singapore!' 😀

A6 It's never too soon to prepare for a trip you know is coming. The farther in advance you think about it, the better chance you have to think of loose ends. #PTTravel

replying to @NomadKeith @NomadKeith Eugh, had 3 delayed flights due to snow last year. Probably had a total of 20 delayed/missed or without luggage in 2019. #pttravel

It's easier to unfollow your schedule than improvising one.

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A6. As much as I’d like to be more organised, I invariably value sponteneity more. Make sure you have a watertight contingency plan and then open yourself up to adventure. #PTTravel

Listen to anyone other than me!
Try to keep a to do list and remember that a passport, credit card and mobile phone will help you out in most situations.
