Why It Works
Planning entire trips feels overwhelming, causing procrastination and poorly planned trips. Breaking itinerary creation into daily micro-sessions makes the task manageable and actually enjoyable. Planning one day at a time allows you to research thoroughly without burnout. It also prevents over-scheduling—a common mistake that leads to exhausting vacations. This approach balances structure with spontaneity, giving you a loose plan while leaving room for serendipity.
