I have a big weekend coming up getting almost 5 days holiday. My partner and i are planning to go to a place of tourist interest. So i have already started searching for hotel, booking tickets for travel and looking up the place. But i still remember when i was in college my friends and i just got up one morning and decided to go for a day trip. We just packed some water, snacks and just set off. I did not even know the place we were going to and just followed my friends. Nowadays i cannot even think about doing something like that. Do you guys plan a trip in advance or is it just pack a bag and set off and search for everything later.

I hope that you will have a fantastic time on your five day holiday. I like to read travel guide books about the region or country that I wish to visit. I have to make sure that accommodation there is affordable. Then I book my flight or my book my train tickets. Next I book my accommodation if it is going to be busy in my destination. I rarely pack a bag and set off without any planning. I get the best flight prices six months in advance. I book train tickets a month or two in advance. I have a Family and Friends Rail Card to get discounted train tickets.

I have not gone on a long holiday for quite some time now, with my full-time job keeping me so busy. Of course, depending on where one plans to go, one has to take along all the essentials. For me, if I go on a long holiday, I would make sure that I have all the medicaments I have to regularly take. That's for sure. Then, the destination and travel related clothings and papers.

My partner and me plan every even the shortest journey in advance as we both work long hours and we are busy all the time. This year we decided that we will not have holiday as our situation is not good yet so maybe next year.
