The Family Edit

It's a fully digital family trip planner built as an interactive Google Sheet — one connected system for planning, packing, and documenting a trip for the whole family. Every tab is linked, and every traveler gets their own packing and outfit space, so nothing (and no one) gets forgotten.

A free Google account and access to Google Sheets — that's it. Open your copy and work from any browser or the Sheets app on your phone.

Yes — it works in the Google Sheets app. It's most comfortable to set up on a laptop and then reference on the go.

You'll need internet to open your copy the first time and to save changes as you go. After that, switch on offline access in the Google Sheets app (or Google Drive settings) and you can view and edit it on the plane or anywhere with no signal — it syncs back up once you're online. (Live currency conversion needs a connection to pull rates, but everything else works offline.)

It's built for the whole family — each traveler gets their own packing list and outfit planner, plus a shared documents and passport tracker that covers everyone. Add the kids, add a grandparent; the workbook grows with your group.

It's built specifically for Google Sheets. Live currency conversion and a few other features rely on Google-only formulas, so we can't guarantee full functionality in Excel.

Yes — but fill in your trip first, because that's where the value is. As you type your details, the planner builds itself: the itinerary, calendar, and budget come to life. Once it's filled in, print any tab (File → Print) or save it as a PDF (File → Download → PDF) for a paper travel binder. Printed blank it's just empty templates — so enter your trip, then print the finished pages.

Tip for a clean copy: in File → Print, set Scale to “Fit to width” and choose “Current sheet” so nothing gets cut off — landscape suits the wider tabs.

Set your home currency once on the Details tab, then log costs in whatever currency you're billed in. Everything converts automatically using live Google Finance rates.

Nothing to build. Type dates, costs, and plans into the white cells — the calendar, itinerary, and budget tracker do the rest.

The moment you check out, you'll get an email with a link to the workbook. Open it, choose File → Make a Copy, and it's yours to keep and reuse for every trip.

Yes — pay once and it's yours forever. No subscription and no recurring fees, ever. Make as many copies as you like for your own trips.

Yes — make a fresh copy of the file for each trip (File → Make a copy). One purchase is yours to reuse trip after trip, family vacation after family vacation.

Absolutely — share your copy with your partner and kids so everyone can check off their own packing and see the plan. Your license covers your own household's personal trips; please don't resell, forward, or gift it to other families — if they'd love one, they'll need their own.

One purchase = one license, for your personal use. Use it for your own trips, make copies for your own travels, and print any tab you like. Please don't resell, share, gift, or redistribute the file — every purchase helps a small, woman-owned business keep making these.
