  • Why the order of the decisions matters more than the decisions
  • Decision 1: the window you can actually travel in
  • Decision 2: what you want to be true of the days
  • Decision 3: how much per person per night
  • Decision 4: how many countries
  • Decision 5: how you move between places
  • Decision 6: how much of the day you want structured
  • Decision 7: who is in the party, and what that rules out
  • Decision 8: what you will not compromise on
  • The one-page brief, ready to send
