I’ve done a spontaneous trip once to Cabo as there was a cheap flight that left within 2 days. However, it was Valentine’s weekend and finding a place to stay last minute was a bit tricky. But there was something exhilarating about getting up and going on a whim. Great tips!

Wow, these are great tips! Spontaneous travel can definitely be a rewarding experience, but sometimes it’s easy to have so much fun that you forget the “practical concerns”. I really enjoyed the links and resources in the “Finding a place to stay” section. Thank you for this informative post!

In reply to Tim. Totally agree with you Tim. It was one of the best decisions we have made so far and it is always fun to see peoples faces when we tell them how we got here. :D

Not much is better than taking off on the spur of the moment. Loved the fact that you guys chucked in the Illinois hitchhiking and ended up in Mexico :)

In reply to Amy. You said the magic words Amy, freeing. Spontaneous travels provides so much freedom and flexibility it crazy. I should do it more often. Hopefully, soon you can get the chance to do more spur of the moment trips, because they are worth finding the time for and the money.

In reply to jennifer. I know how you feel, I am and still kind of a planning maniac, to do lists are my best friends. However, once you have the chance to let go and travel, it will be an amazing feeling. You will love it for sure. I freaked out when Ben suggested we go to Mexico, without any planning or any knowledge on the country but I am happy we did. Because, I love the 24/7 nice weather and the beautiful beaches not to mention the awesome locals here.

Great tips! I rarely get to travel spontaneously these days with the limitations of my job and having a dog, but I do love the rare spur of the moment trips when I can take them. There’s something so freeing about just going.

I am a complete planning maniac, to fit everything into my tight “I still have a full time job” schedule. I cannot wait until this is all over and I can slow travel, travel spontaneously, and all that fun stuff that motivates me to put every penny I can into my RTW fund.

There is always time, you just have to find it Will. You have to do it at least once, it’s totally worth it.

I’ve never done spontaneous travel before so this is good to know! Wish I had the flexibility too though!
