"By bunching things up that were in close proximity to each other, you're able to maximize your time in this city."

"My reference point is from my hotel so I can see how far I'm going to go when I start my day."

# data[].attributes.body
"If there's a puddle jumper flight (like to a different island) you treat that as a whole day [on the itinerary]."

# data[].attributes.body
"I write everything that I want to do as if I had all the time in the world. Then I start breaking down when I factor in time."

# data[].attributes.body
"Okay, I'll reference this like a million times like What time am I going to land, is this gonna land on time,"

# data[].attributes.body
"You want to see geographically and see what's around your base [hotel]."

# data[].attributes.body
"Typical of me to always take my itinerary out at the beginning of the day, like when I'm eating breakfast, when I'm getting my day started"

# data[].attributes.body
"If I'm going by myself, I tend to use the chat logs that I have between the people that I'm consulting with"

He'll search for directions from his hotel to his destination and see how long the walk should take. If it's been too long, he knows he went astray somewhere along the way.

# data[].attributes.body
"I think like higher point of view of like what I'm going to do not like the granular details of what I'm going to do really sets me up for success for most of my trips. "

# data[].attributes.body
" For every call it's basically the same thing though where I laid out a Google sheet of roughly like what was I doing from the moment I landed there up until when I left."

# data[].attributes.body
"I could give less of a damn about like at one o'clock I do this at 1:30 I do that, and this is how I do it. "

# data[].attributes.body
"I'm like right when I wake up like this go reference the sheet, see what's going to work out for that day. "

# data[].attributes.body
"I tend to always go in this pattern so it's like, from airport to lodging, spend some time at lodging, figure out like, I mean, again depending on the day of time that I'm there. In the evening, I'll just go to sleep. "

# data[].attributes.body
"I will refer back to my itinerary once a day to make sure I'm not missing anything that I have."

# data[].attributes.body
"I see Instagram and see other people post photos ... I would want to go there."

# data[].attributes.body
" I usually go to the Google sheet again as a frame of reference, and I cross reference that with the weather and see which activities line up with like what's appropriate with the weather. "

# data[].attributes.body
"Generally I'll write it down in like a Google Doc or a spreadsheet of some sort, just to like internalize it and make note of it."

# data[].attributes.body
"I use an excel sheet [to create an itinerary]."

# data[].attributes.body
"I work [on my itinerary] on my computer and upload it to the cloud so I have access to it on my phone while on vacation.

# data[].attributes.body
"What is in walking distance from the surrounding area? Those become a list for that day."

# data[].attributes.body
"I make a list of most want to do and least. Then I make sure I check off the top of my list and have options to the bottom items if there's time at the end of my trip."

# data[].attributes.body
"I like to go for long walks and just meander around the city and follow your nose a little bit."

"As long as I stick to my itinerary, it helps me to explore the city and it goes well."

# data[].attributes.body
"If I know someone in that destination, I would ask that people what are the best places to go."

# data[].attributes.body
"There's certainly a destination but not necessary a circular path as long as I know roughly where I am."

"It's part of my exercise to just go for a walk and explore."

While walking, "you typically have a focus but I don't have a certain path to get there. I just go toward the general direction and see what happens."

# data[].attributes.body
"It's either bad or like I'm like, just really adaptable or something I don't know"

# data[].attributes.body
"I spent the day exploring that was walking distance from the hotel and found an alleyway with food stalls that I got to try different foods that I wouldn't otherwise try."

"These 2 attractions are an hour away from each other so I'm not going to do these 2 things on the same day. I'd split them on different days."

# data[].attributes.body
"If you're in the city for 1-2 days, you don't have that much time so having a 2-day [tour] bus pass, we were able to knock out a lot of attractions in 2 days."

Checked Google calendar to check available dates

"There are certain landmarks that I want to see and I make it a point to go there."

# data[].attributes.body

"I would build out my itinerary around the main event/reason for the trip."

# data[].attributes.body
"Typically when I have gone vacation. There's a purpose to go on that location like golf or a sporting event."

# data[].attributes.body
Bases research around transportation options

# data[].attributes.body

# data[].attributes.body
"I'm very very reliant on my phone."

# data[].attributes.body
"I go to like Google or I'll ask like someone that lives there"

# data[].attributes.body
"Yelp is more for when I am there, and Google is for trip preparations."

# data[].attributes.body
"I was like okay I'll give [my technology] that benefit of the doubt but it was still like, oh my god so much time was wasted."

# data[].attributes.body
"I would start by Googling best things to do"

# data[].attributes.body
"I would just Yelp it or Google it."

# data[].attributes.body
"Definitely rely on Google Maps, Yelp, Calendar ... Apple Wallet to pay for stuff on my cell phone. Message my friend, Instagram so that I can post my stories and post"

"Google what to do in this area and match with what you have the time for."

# data[].attributes.body

# data[].attributes.body
"You kind of have an idea of where I'm going and maybe when I get close, I'll look at a map to find it."

"The little man that you drop in Google Maps so you can see the street view so we know when our exit is and what it looks like."

# data[].attributes.body
"I use Google or Apple Maps open for navigation and to see how long it's going to take to get there."

"I usually use maps as a reference point and rejigger my itinerary depending if an attraction is more closer to where we are."

# data[].attributes.body
"I'm not big into doing 'pin drops' so I just search for it on the map."

# data[].attributes.body
"If you get lost, you would consult a map, surely."
