France

Ranked by energy return on investment (eROI). Built for travelers with chronic pain, fatigue, and flare‑prone conditions—tool-first, calm defaults, simple Plan B thresholds.

eROI band: Medium • Category: Most visited (country)

Low‑effort wins

  • One base-camp (minimize transfers).
  • One ‘big win’ within a 10–15 minute radius.
  • Quiet-ready: indoor reset + headphones as default.

Rule: one base‑camp + one “big win” + one protected reset window. Not a checklist sprint.

The 4‑Hour Day (anti‑itinerary)

  • Quiet Anchor: 45–60 min indoors (dark/quiet), headphones ready
  • Loop A (90 min): one primary win within a 10–15 min radius
  • Buffer (30–45 min): snack + seat + bathroom + decide ‘continue vs stop’
  • Loop B (90 min): secondary win OR a ‘still counts’ alternative

This is designed to “still count” even if you stop early.

Plan B (Red → Amber)

  • If overload signs appear: exit within 10 minutes → Quiet Anchor → return to base.
  • If sleep <6h or meds side effects: switch to a seated day only (ride/boat/museum).

Decision detox: you pre‑decide the swaps before symptoms spike.

Fit / Avoid

Good fit if: You can time-shift (early/late) and use indoor resets.

Not a fit if: You’re triggered by crowds/noise without reliable exits.

Protections checklist

Use these as non‑negotiables. They reduce crash risk without requiring heroic self‑control.

  • Quiet Anchor daily (30–60 min, predictable, indoors if needed).
  • Two exits pre-planned for high-stimulation moments (taxi/ride + indoor reset).
  • Time-shift: early/late windows; avoid peak crowd blocks.
  • Micro-loops: keep each outing ≤ 90 min and return to base between loops.
  • Bench rule: sit every 10–15 minutes while out.
  • Keep the plan simple: one big win/day cap.

How we scored France (rubric)

Inputs (0–5)

  • Mobility load: 3/5
  • Sensory load: 4/5
  • Planning friction: 2/5
  • Recovery infrastructure: 5/5
  • Optionality/control: 5/5

Formula

  • Difficulty = 0.30*Mobility + 0.25*Sensory + 0.15*Planning + 0.15*(5−Recovery) + 0.15*(5−Optionality)
  • Spoonie Score = 100 − 20*Difficulty
  • eROI = Reward ÷ max(10, 100 − Spoonie)
