3. Make sure travel is appropriately organised (car fueled, passports ready etc.)
4. Decide how you want to handle meals, will you be eating out or will you be purchasing and making your own food?

1. Holidays are primarily meant for relaxation and recovery from the stresses of employment. While exotic experiences might be tempting to seek out, it is important to ensure that holidays don't become a checklist of things to do and experience. This turns the relaxation of having spare time into a rush to complete these arbitrary tasks for the pursuit of happiness, which can introduce a lot of stress and erode away the potential for relaxation and recovery.
2. Holiday is where you choose to spend it, not any other place. If financial, familial or personal factors nudge you toward a less aggrandizing holiday you should not feel guilty for doing so.
3. Plan your holiday ahead in some level of detail depending on your preferences. Be sure to leave a lot of economic wiggle room in your budget and add a margin for error in your scheduling. The purpose of this is to reduce the risk that a small mistake or problem can ruin your entire holiday. The best holiday plans are generally the ones open to improvisation rather than the perfectly detailed ones. If you are using a travelling agency a lot of these problems are not going to be your responsibility.
4. When it comes to location and choice of activities, it isn't necessary to go for the most expensive or luxurious alternative. Plenty of great holidays can be planned and enjoyed that don't even involve interregional travel. A good approach is to prioritize experiences that feel great without costing too much money or time.
5. Finally, you should seek out advice and recommendations from people like you and especially ones that you trust. Advertisements play on your emotions and trick you into wanting something big and expensive when something more affordable and personalized could prove to be just as good or even better depending on who you are.
