This capstone unit synthesizes practical travel planning skills for budget travelers, covering visas, digital-nomad logistics, affordable lodging and activities, and a prioritized gear and packing system. Students will complete actionable checklists and an itinerary that prepare them to execute and adapt a budget trip safely and efficiently.
Learning Objectives

- Demonstrate the ability to plan and justify an affordable itinerary that includes transportation, accommodations (including a night at a higher-tier hotel option), local food and activities, and digital-nomad work needs
- Evaluate essential travel gear and health/safety preparations (e.g., footwear, battery pack, noise-canceling headphones, vaccinations) and recommend adjustments for varying trip lengths and environments
