Journeys · Solo travel planner

Trips for one. On purpose.

Planned so going alone feels like a choice, not a compromise. Your pace, your budget, your hard nos, and whoever you're traveling as.

I travel solo too. I know the difference between a lonely trip and a good one: walkable neighborhoods, a bar seat at dinner, and one thing every day you'd never do with company.

A solo trip, roughly
  1. ArriveCheck in somewhere walkable. Dinner at the bar, with a book if you want one.
  2. WanderOne planned thing, then a whole afternoon with nothing planned on purpose.
  3. TreatThe one splurge you'd never justify with a group. Then the train home.

Yours is built around how you travel alone, down to where you sit for dinner.Start a trip

What I planWhat I plan The pace · The places · The math
The pace

Room to wander.

A plan with space in it. Downtown in the morning, trailhead by lunch, no checklist you have to defend to anyone.

The places

Welcome, actually.

LGBTQ+ friendly and sensory-aware stays and spots, picked so you can relax instead of scanning the room.

The math

Budget-smart, best taste.

Splurge where you'll actually feel it and save where you won't. Intermodal when it fits. Luxury when you sit.

The price

Count your hours.

One trip request, no phone call. I reply within two business days, and your itinerary lands within a week of paying the planning fee.

Up to 7 nights
$333
Up to 14 nights
$555
Burn Session included
30 min, or 60 min with 14 nights

Party of one. Planned like a party.

Not quite it?

I plan more than this.
