It’s one thing to create a ‘travel bucket list’ but then what?
How do you go about managing all the various places on your travel bucket list in such a way when you go off on an adventure, or go on holidays, that you are aware of what’s on your list so you can plan effectively and check off as many as are relevant to that journey?
Give your Google Map the travel bucket list ‘spots’!
I am about to head off on a road trip through Scotland, so today invested time in adding to my Bucket List some places in Scotland that looked really interesting and that I wanted to visit and investigate.
In addition to adding to my Bucket List, I also added each of those places to Google Maps – hence the spots above (that is a screenshot of my personal Google Maps app).
Here’s how that works…
First of all, decide on the location you want to add to your Google Maps ‘spots’… In this instance, I am adding Loch Ness…
So, first step is to go to your Google Maps app and search for Loch Ness – then you will see a tab called “Saved”…
I add the places I want to visit to the list called “Want To Go”…
That then adds a ‘spot’ onto your Google Maps app so you can actually SEE your travel bucket list! (ref the first image)
When it comes time to travel to a particular area, I look at my Google Maps ‘spots’ to see what’s on my travel bucket list that I might want to explore while I am in the area…
I find this is invaluable in helping me actually achieve what’s on my travel bucket list.
If you have any questions about creating and managing your own travel bucket list, feel free to reach out to me!
OK, time to start deciding what I am going to take with me on this trip… 🙂 Hmmmm, perhaps that needs to be another post… 🙂
