My Travel Buddy
My Travel Buddy · Coming soon
Travel feels easier when your next step is already clear.
A neurodivergent-informed travel support app that lowers the cognitive load of planning, packing, and moving through a trip. A Planner builds the structure ahead of time; the Traveler follows it one clear step at a time — supported before and during travel.
No pressure. No spam. Just updates, demos, and early access when available.
Who it helps
Built for the people who carry the details.
In plain words: My Travel Buddy helps you prepare for a trip and know what to do next when travel feels overwhelming.

You're not alone in it
One trip, two roles: the Planner and the Traveler.
A lot of travel stress comes from doing everything yourself, in the moment. My Travel Buddy splits the work in two — so the hard thinking happens early, in calm, and the trip itself becomes following the plan.
The Planner builds the structure
A parent, spouse, caregiver, friend, interpreter, support person — or you, during a calmer planning stage — adds the itinerary, reminders, packing lists, documents, notes, support instructions, and step-by-step guidance ahead of time.
The Traveler follows it, step by step
During the trip, the Traveler sees what comes next, what needs attention, and what's already handled — without holding the whole plan in their head.
Packing, with someone alongside you
A long packing list is easier when you're not facing it alone. My Travel Buddy guides packing in smaller steps, shows visible progress, and prompts the next item — and a Planner or support person can help organize, confirm, and encourage you. It's body doubling for travel prep: the feeling of company that helps you stay engaged, reduce avoidance, and actually finish.

Built as support, not judgment.
Not here to fix you

Not a medical device
My Travel Buddy is a planning and support tool. It does not diagnose, treat, or replace professional care.

Questions
Honest answers, short and clear.
Is this only for neurodivergent people?
No. It's designed with neurodivergent needs in mind, which makes it useful for anyone who gets overwhelmed by travel, transitions, or too many details.
What's the difference between a Planner and a Traveler?
The Planner builds the trip structure ahead of time — itinerary, reminders, packing lists, documents, notes, and step-by-step guidance. It can be a parent, caregiver, friend, support person, or you during a calmer planning stage. The Traveler then follows that structure during the trip: what comes next, what needs attention, what's already handled.
Can someone help me pack?
Yes. My Travel Buddy supports body doubling during packing — it guides the process in smaller steps, shows visible progress, and prompts the next item, and a Planner or support person can help organize, confirm, and encourage you.
Can I use it for non-travel transitions?
Yes. The same structure can support school mornings, appointments, conferences, events, hotel stays, and coming home.
Will it work offline?
