START HERE

Begin with
your ordinary week.

Before choosing a destination, describe the life you hope to live when the holiday feeling has settled.

FIVE SMALL MOVES

A better way
to decide.

01
Define your fit
Set dates, budget, your work and sleep needs, desired community and room for solitude. Choose three non-negotiables.
02
Shortlist places
Compare the destination and the exact areas that might support your regular day. Keep one alternative in reserve.
03
Test the evidence
Ask for dated exact-room details, written costs, noise and internet tests, stay-permission checks, and realistic access.
04
Calculate the real cost
Include utilities, deposits, transport and contingency. Separate expected spending from refundable cash temporarily tied up.
05
Make a justified decision
REJECT when an essential condition fails, HOLD when critical evidence is missing, and consider only candidates whose hard gates pass.
