Having an itinerary is just a great idea. Without it, you will be so disorganized and may not be able to save time and money. Always do a lot of research beforehand and get familiarized with the destination you are heading to. Be prepared of the hazards or problems along the way of your trip, too.

I hate plans and itineraries. I always fail to follow them. It may even mess up everything so I prefer to just go for it and don't worry about anything. It's better to be spontaneous and do things at the spur of the moment. It's so much fun.

Backpacking is great! I love to carry a backpack and just go where my feet lead me. But I do agree to have a plan and make it good and organized. You always have to plan ahead of time to be more prepared and to avoid anything unwanted and unnecessary.
