One thing about travel is almost a certainty—at some point, plans will go awry.
Even the best-laid, most-detailed, and specific itinerary will get derailed. Sometimes, it may literally be a derailment that causes the impediment to “what was supposed to happen.”
When this inevitability occurs, it is the time to tap into one of your most precious resources. Your resilience—your ingenuity, moxie, flexibility, persistence, and quest for joy.
Planning is important; it lays the framework for great adventure. But, being receptive, even excited about the detours and challenges that will inevitably come up, and having confidence in your ability to handle them, is really what defines the adventure. And will create the memories that you will carry with you.
