How to plan a road trip with your partner?

You do not plan it. If you have a big budget, then there is no need to book any living accommodation. But if budget is an issue, then you can just have a crude idea of how many days you want to stay at a place and book your stay accordingly. The destination does not matter so much if you have the right company. Your itinerary should be making memories with your partner. Memories that you will cherish for the rest of your lives. With this in mind, you can free yourself from the restrictions you would have to face with an itinerary. You can do whatever you have in mind. Explore the unique activities the place has to offer, relax and take rest and most importantly, spend quality time with your loved one. 

You can enjoy your trip better if you do not have a burden with you. So, you should minimize your luggage. If possible, do not carry any. You can buy your clothes from the local vendors. This will let you try on the traditional clothing of that place. This will be so much more interesting as it would help you camouflage in the respective society. Also, it will help you come out of your everyday outfits and try some fresh looks. Psychologically speaking this will not only bring in some fresh energy but also excitement which is necessary for a break.

Most people tend to play it safe and have food which is known to them. A cuisine with which they are comfortable.They also tend to go to a place which they have already visited. Maybe a chain of restaurant which they are familiar with. This should not be the target when a couple travels. You should try and explore the local cuisine as this creates a cloud of excitement for you your taste buds.

The most essential part of any road trip is obviously the vehicle. You can use a convertible car, an idea which is pretty common in movies. 
Not only does it let you live your fantasies, it also allows us to use the same vehicle in the different weathers. One thing which you should completely reject is the concept of keeping a driver. 
Though it might be tiring, it adds to the privacy of the couple and helps them spend time while they are travelling. This allows you to take whatever routes you want to take. Stop wherever you would like to, and listen to whatever music you like. 
Privacy is very important as a lot of time is spent commuting on a road trip. 

One thing which you should not forget is that you are going there to take a break so you should not plan the next day. For ex. If you wish to stay at a place for more time than have initially you thought, you should not think twice. You should just extend your stay and relax. Get a massage done and enjoy the spa but relax. You can afford to take a day off exploring,after all, you are on a vacation. 

Even if you own an Iphone XR, it really does not matter you should definitely carry a camera with you because all the shutter illusions which you want to capture should be through this camera.

Instead of just visiting the main attractions, you should also interact with the local people and try to learn the local customs and language as besides shopping, learning new activities should also be an essential motive. 

By visiting these small aisles one can learn new stories and discover some traditions which are quite unique to that specific place.
For ex. While visiting Paris the Eiffel tower should not be the only attraction but also the small houses and churches as the actual innovations of the renaissance are in these places, for the people who love architecture, sculptures and paintings. 
There are many small gardens which are worth visiting. There exist many water fountains which are delicately built but are rendered unseen as people tend to focus on the Eiffel tower only.

After completing the trip, like everyone, you should not just post stories on Instagram and Snapchat but what one should do is that he/she should prepare a travelogue like that of Al Beruni so that not only do you compile all the information but by uploading it online you also help others to plan their travel.

Hence my concluding paragraph is that go where you want to go, do what you want to do and eat whatever you want to and capture everything you can. But just remember one thing that you are visiting a place to take a break from your everyday routine and hence you should not carry the extra baggage of stress and emotional complications rather when you return you should bring with yourself a wave of happiness, energy and joy which can only be achieved if you truly live in the moment.
