Hi! When planning your itinerary, try to balance between being structured and flexible. It's good to have a basic route and know the main attractions, but also leave room for spontaneous adventures. For budgeting, track your expenses and always have an emergency fund.

On safety, always inform someone about your travel plans, especially if you're going off the beaten path. And invest in a good travel insurance policy. It can be a lifesaver in case of unexpected medical issues or travel disruptions.
