To increase your anticipation even before the start of your journey:
- Download a playlist or the current charts of your travel country before you start your trip to get in the ultimate holiday mood
- Create your own music playlist for your journey
- Write your own bucket list with all the places you love to see on your journey
- Why don't you cook a few recipes of country-specific culinary delights in advance?
- Get a countdown app and install it on your phone or computer screen to keep track of your journey
- Buy a calendar with photos of your travel destination or a travel guide
- Always be open to changes of plan and spontaneity, because that brings liveliness
- Try to get to know places outside the tourist stream
- Seek contact with locals & ask them for insider tips (on the street or by staying in shared accommodations)
- Buy a postcard or other souvenir of your choice from any destination during your trip
- Keep a travel diary to remember your best travel moments
- Collect your very personal souvenirs, for example shells or sand
After your trip - so to do to keep your trip in unforgettable memory:
- Create your personal photo album or photo calendar with your best travel moments
- Create a postcard or photo collage of the places you have visited and hang it up
- Decorate the rooms of your house/flat with your souvenirs
