Design Your Next Decade of Travel
Travel Design Journal – Decade by Design
The Travel Design Journal, A Decade by Design was created to apply a new way of thinking about travel timing.
In about an hour, it helps you:
• clarify the journeys that inspire you most
• consider how travel may evolve across the coming decade
• identify which experiences may deserve earlier priority
Many readers discover that a few destinations quickly stand out as their "Right Trip First".
Because the most meaningful travel rarely happens by accident.
It is shaped through intention.
Design the Next Decade of Travel . . .
. . . Before Time Decides for You
A thoughtful guided journal that helps you prioritize the journeys that matter most.
Years ago, while planning a family trip, we faced a choice.
Africa or Australia.
My husband and daughter leaned toward Australia. I wanted Africa.
Australia won that year.
Four years later, my daughter and I finally travelled to southern Africa — Victoria Falls in Zambia, the Okavango Delta in Botswana, skydiving in Namibia, and ending the journey with friends in Cape Town.
That trip crystallized something I had already begun to understand as a travel professional.
Some journeys should happen earlier in life.
Not because they are better — but because timing matters.
Travel to Africa often requires preventative medications.
Seeing mountain gorillas in the wild requires travel to Uganda or Rwanda — and a yellow fever inoculation, which is generally not recommended after age sixty.
Many travelers collect dream destinations for decades.
But very few stop to ask an important question:
Which trips should happen first?
A Different Approach to Travel Planning
The Travel Design Journal introduces a simple philosophy:
Design the decade ahead rather than drifting through it.
Using the Right Trip First Framework, this guided journal helps you reflect on:
• the travel experiences that truly inspire you
• the seasons of travel that may shape the coming decade
• which journeys may deserve earlier priority
It is not a booking tool.
It is a clarity tool.
