Do you agree or disagree with these? it really can take your trip from great to amazing!
quality over quantity, go to a destination and enjoy an experience than running around doing all the "Must do" things
slower travel when you can, and sometimes you just can't, I get it but try to focus on one destination rather than many
the best luxury is ease. This one is often overlooked and your AI bestie doesn't get this fully. Making things easy can really up level the trip and experience! You don't go into a vacation wanting to leave exhausted so many sure you make it easy to really enjoy it
comfort matters, wear the comfy shoes, get the bedding that your family will be comfortable becasue if no one sleeps well, the next day is not going to be as enjoyable as it can be
celebrate milestones with experiences, we all have that special birthday, the new job or season of life upon us, so instead of just clicking glasses perhaps take the celebration overseas and really make it memorable!
align the trip with your interest not trends. If you don't care about religion or the Vatican, no one says you HAVE to go! Lean into what you are interested in and find those experiences (art, history, food, w**e, parks, hikes) all places have all the things, especially cities!
leave room for downtime (and spontaneity). We all get those 24 hours in a day and we over estimate it when on vacation. You need to add in the downtime especially when traveling with others. As I said before, you want to enjoy your trip but exhaust yourself (been there don't that and don't recommend)
