Try Out My FREE Retirement Travel Planner - WanderList

Hi fellow DIY Retirement planners. I have something more 'retirement life' and less 'retirement finance' I want to share with you. If you are like my wife and I, travel is a big part of your retirement plans and there is likely a list of dream trips/vacations you want to try and fit into your early and go-go retirement years. I recently coupled my desire to leverage AI to code for me and my desire for a more macro trip planner that let my wife and I...

  • manage our dream trip list in one place
  • preliminarily slot or schedule these trips across the upcoming years

...to produce a new solution I call WanderList (a place to plan your wanderlust!) and think it ready for prime time now.

The solution lives as a website ( https://trip-planner-chi-sage.vercel.app/ ) and is really designed to be viewed on a laptop or desktop (i.e., not a mobile app). It's free and I am looking to share it with you to ascertain if there is any need for such a tool and, if so, how to make it better.

With the tool you can identify your bucket list of trips and start scheduling them across the upcoming years. You can manage key trip details as desired and even go so far as to manage trip budgets against an overall retirement travel budget if you like. Define blackout periods where no travel should be planned and invite friends & family to collaborate on trip planning as you see fit.

The tool's intent, to be clear, is not to be a detailed trip planner for any one trip, but rather a way to start slotting trips for that level of detailed planning. Hopefully, the tool addresses the "problem" of seeing how one can fit (and pay for) all the travel they have envisioned in their retirement years.

I'll stop here and simply invite you to give the website/tool a spin.

Let me know what you think by DMing me back. Thanks!
