Are you flipping through a Frommer's, scrolling on your phone, spreading printed PDF maps, or driving a multi-monitor workstation?

I use Sygic to figure out what I'm going to do there, it's such an underrated app. It gives you an idea o how long things are going to take and where your accommodation is relative to everything else and what your dates look like on a calendar. The logistics I physically draw out and write down on paper because otherwise it would be too complicated. I also have a very strong tendency to "wing it", so planning beforehand is necessary to counterbalance that.

Interesting. I'd never heard of Sygic. I've used OrganicMaps (OpenStreet based, iirc) for planning when I was likely to be off grid for a while, and just to have preplanned destinations available when I was offline. Are you using the paid version, or is the free tier sufficient for planning purposes?

I’m glad it’s not just me.
