Greetings virtual travelers! How did you spend Memorial Day weekend? We worked around our property and grilled some tasty meals when the weather was cooperative. It was a nice weekend but a bit sad since not filled with the typical Memorial Day experiences like our town parade and pancake breakfast, trip to a beach or extended family backyard barbecue. In recent years, we’ve taken the train to New York City for the Fleet Week celebrations, sometimes catching a Broadway show. We enjoyed none of these traditions this year, but the silver lining is those festive activities will be more vibrant and appreciated next year.
My nostalgia prompted me to reminisce about the amazing vacations we’ve taken in past summers which further prompted me to think about future summers. My travel bucket list, AKA Wanderlist, is long! The gift of a pause in daily life motivates me to cherish the memories of my past vacations and focus on what I want to do see and experience in the future.
What destinations and experiences are on your Wanderlist? What’s on the Wanderlist of your family members or travel companions? The answers to these questions are the heart of your travel plan. As a certified Virtuoso Wanderlist travel advisor, I’m often asked two questions by my clients- how to prioritize their long list of dream destinations and how to learn about places and experiences they might not know as yet. Luckily the answer is easy – the Wanderlist platform and process makes it fun and easy. Your long wish list becomes a thoughtful plan that reflects the desires of all your travel companions.
Carpe Diem! This rare pause is the ideal time to create your Wanderlist because:
- Our minds are wandering from past to future as a break from the realities of the present.
- We are spending a lot of time with our close family members who are often our travel companions.
- Travel will have a “new normal” once the world opens up again. The combination of having a well thought out plan and a travel advisor at your disposal will help you navigate the new waters and help protect you from unforeseen glitches.
