We know that every trip is unique in its own right, as it brings us different experiences and different types of joy. What we all tend to forget is that, despite this fact, each trip is a project of its own, and can absolutely be assessed as such. Sure, when visiting Paris, you cannot use the “spend three hours visiting Burj Khalifa” point, from your trip to Dubai. Sometimes, you will not even be able to utilize the same timetable. However, the approach of preparing each journey for success can easily become generic, even almost at a copy-past level, until you get a hold of it.

New travels and new adventures open up new paths to success. This is why I always advise people to take some time off (from life as well, not only from work), to remember their purpose and do more for their own wellbeing. Most of us simply forget to live, among day-to-day tasks and to-do lists. However, we are in nature much more than simple sets of tasks we perform on a daily basis.

Can you believe it? It’s already been six months since I started running my solo travel blog! And I really did not know whether I would persevere and keep on going. Not because I’d ever been a quitter by nature (on the contrary!), but because so many people were trying to scare me with how difficult it is to run a blog. Fortunately, and thanks to my decision not to listen to anyone, I’m proving the opposite!

Last week, I received too many calls, asking about where I am going next, why I am off social media (again) and where’s my blog post last Tuesday. News flash for everyone: I was packing my suitcase, getting ready for my upcoming summer holiday! (No worries, I’m still alive, just enjoying myself.) Other than that, I keep being asked how to properly organize a summer holiday. Most people I know tend to take two weeks of paid time off, only to travel between the first and the second Wednesday. Some of them even asked me how to waste less time, or why the flights are so expensive. The summer is here – you are as willing to read, as I am to sit in front of a boiling laptop and write. Without any further ado, here’s short and sweet top 10 on how to properly organize a summer holiday.
