What is the DIY Trip Summit?

This virtual event will inspire and equip independent travelers to plan their own dream trip. 

Our January 2025 event will focus on: EUROPE & U.K. TRAVEL

Michelle and Jedd Chang of Intentional Travelers, two expert conference and event planners who’ve spent the last decade as digital nomads and travel bloggers, are excited to host a first-class DIY Trip Summit in January 2025.

The Summit brings together top-notch, seasoned travel pros in expert-led workshops and panel sessions to help participants: 

  • Create unforgettable DIY itineraries with more confidence and ease

  • Uncover off-the-beaten-path local gems even in unfamiliar destinations

  • Make the most of their time and money

  • Harness lesser-known tools and travel hacks

  • Stay on top of travel trends

  • Avoid costly travel mistakes

  • And so much more…

Our Attendees

We’re targeting mature, independent travelers who want more than low-key beach vacations. They rank experiences like sightseeing, food, and local connections as the most important parts of travel.

DIY travelers do their own online research for the most part, but also are drawn to expert-led tours and day excursions.

While making the most of their money is a priority, they have a willingness to splurge when it comes to safety, uniqueness, and local expertise.
