planning every single second of a trip is not the right thing to do when planning a trip! You have to expect things to go wrong, be delayed etc. Dont be afraid to throw away the plan In order to make your travel experience better!! I highly recommend having a travel outline instead of plan. This allows you to be a bit more flexible without going into a trip with no plan. We will have 2-3 things booked (often things that require advanced booking) but otherwise have a loose guide to what we want to do!
