    Rough plans at the beginning of the year, like “1 week to go to this place in July-August timeframe” so I can plan time away from work accordingly.

    6+ months out for international travel for best deals on airfare.

    Day of for weekend trips sometimes. Or tacking on a day or two to the end of a work trip.

    Years out for sporting events. Like the 2031 rugby world cup will be hosted by the US and I plan to go to quite a few games, plans will develop as cities are picked and pool play schedules made.

    Oh, interesting. I switched from books/ebooks to audiobooks so I could do other things at the same time, I never thought to combine them.

    I listen to audiobooks while walking, if you were open to dropping the reading part. Parks, my neighborhood, while shopping, all while listening to books.

    As for sitting down and reading/listening at the same time, I would suggest breweries to mix up the coffee shops, especially earlier in the afternoon or early evening before drinking crowds show up. Parks again.

    And as a former barista and bartender, so long as you buy at least one drink, don’t dirty your area unnecessarily, and clear out if the place starts getting busy with people waiting for tables, you’re fine. You are probably the most low-maintenance customer possible. Heck, I was always happy when my fellow introverts felt comfortable in my service and respected them by not engaging in small talk 😁.
