Essential Questions to Ask Each Other

Travel Style

• What’s the best trip we’ve taken together and why?

Expectations

• What’s the one experience you absolutely want to have?
• How do you feel about splitting time between relaxation and activities?
• What would make this trip feel special and different from our usual vacations?

Practical Matters

• What’s our comfort level with different budgets?
• When’s the best time for us to travel considering work and weather?
• How long do we want to be away?

Making Decisions Together

Remember:

• There are no wrong answers
• Compromise doesn’t mean sacrifice
• Focus on what excites both of you
• Consider starting traditions you can continue in future trips

Common Planning Pitfalls to Avoid
