Nothing here is a commitment. The more you tell me, the better the first draft — but if you don't know something yet, leave it blank and say so at the end.
If your dates aren't fixed yet, give me your best guess and tick the flexible box.
This shapes what I suggest, not what I charge. A ryokan with a private hot spring and a family-run guesthouse are different trips, and I would rather aim right first time.
The most important box on this form. Write it however you like — I read every word.
Tick what applies, then rate how much it matters. This is the part that decides which routes get built, so be honest rather than polite.
Anything fixed is a constraint I design around, not a problem. Be specific with dates if you can — it is the single most useful thing you can give me.
