Round 1: Dream big together
Start with pure wish lists. Capture the destinations you both bring up on long walks or send in DMs.
- Note the ideas that instantly make both of you smile.
- Flag any stretch picks that feel risky but exciting—you can keep them as optional bonuses.
- Add one new destination from a travel story or reel you both bookmarked this month.
Round 2: Vibe check & bonding
Outline the experiences that make a shared weekend feel magical, then compare how each destination delivers.
- List one must-eat meal, one late-night ritual, and one slow-morning moment you want to share.
- Pick a soundtrack or playlist for the trip and note where it fits best.
- Add a potential “treat yourselves” splurge that can anchor the itinerary.
Round 3: Logistics reality check
Cover travel timing, flight patterns, and budget triggers so surprises happen on the trip—not before it.
- Compare flight times or train connections from each origin and highlight the easiest merges.
- Tag weekends where one traveler has limited availability and note backup dates.
- Call out must-have amenities (workspace, spa, kitchen) so you can filter stay options together.
Round 4: Bonding boosters
Lock in shared rituals that guarantee feel-good memories no matter where you end up.
- Brainstorm a first-night tradition (sunset stroll, handwritten notes, or matching pajamas).
- Plan a “surprise swap” where each traveler leads one activity tailored to the other.
- Choose a keepsake you will bring home (polaroids, postcards, or a dinner playlist).
Round 5: Decision time
Review the PairMatch consensus, mark the front-runner, and jot down what will make the trip feel like a win for both of you.
- Vote on the top two destinations and write down why they work for each traveler.
- List the first three reservations to book together.
- Set a follow-up date to check flight prices or lock in time off.
