Some people obsess for weeks before a trip and get frazzled over every tiny detail. Others throw stuff into a suitcase the night before and take off.
I’m somewhere in the middle.
I used to be one of those persons that just tossed whatever clothes were at hand into a suitcase (whatever suitcase) and just left the next day. Somehow it always seemed to work out. I was never caught short lacking something vital and I never had to buy something from some overpriced airport shop.
Lately though I have been taking more care and planning things more carefully. In a way it’s fun. I like thinking about my trip and what I will need to take and what I have that will work or what needs to be replaced.
I am also taking more care in my vacation and allocating my time more wisely. I could spend half my trip traveling by car here and there and not get any relaxation done. But this trip I am planning on plenty of just plain relaxation time.
I find that as I get older that relaxation time is harder and harder to come by so I am planning out my trip more and more so I can maximize this scarce resource known as free time.
