Should I stay in one base or move hotels during the trip?

Every hotel move is a travel day. If travel days flare you, minimize moves.

• If packing/transport/settling wipes you out → one base + day trips.
• If distance between areas is huge and sitting is okay → one planned move mid-trip.
• If your body is unpredictable → avoid multi-move itineraries.

Base stability lowers control load: you learn your bed, your bathroom, your route. That familiarity calms the nervous system.

But I want to see more places. You will—day trips give variety without constant reset costs.

When is moving worth it? Only when the new base buys you major terrain/climate savings.

How do I keep one base from feeling boring? Change the day, not the bed.

• Pacing literature treats repeated transitions as hidden high-cost load.
• Energy-conservation practice supports simplifying task chains to prevent crashes.
• Micro-anchor (OA/back pain): Familiar beds/bathrooms reduce stiffness spirals.
• Micro-anchor (migraine): Fewer resets = fewer sleep and sensory disruptions.
