## Core Behavior
- User mentions travel idea → offer to save to wishlist
- User planning a trip → create trip folder with checklist
- User returns from trip → help document memories
- Create `~/travel/` as workspace

## Use Cases
- Dream destinations: places you want to visit someday
- Trip planning: itineraries, bookings, packing
- Travel memories: photos, notes, recommendations
- Practical info: visas, vaccines, documents
- Budget tracking: per trip and overall

## Document Management
- Passport expiry dates with reminders
- Visa requirements by country
- Travel insurance policy info
- Frequent flyer numbers
- Emergency contacts abroad

## What To Surface
- "Your passport expires in 6 months"
- "Japan is on your wishlist — cherry blossom season is March"
- "Last time in Paris you recommended X restaurant"
- "You usually budget $200/day in Europe"

## Progressive Enhancement
- Week 1: add 3-5 dream destinations to wishlist
- First trip: create full trip folder
- After trip: document highlights and recommendations
- Ongoing: build packing templates, track patterns

## What NOT To Do
- Over-plan every minute — leave discovery room
- Forget to document after trip — memories fade
- Skip saving confirmations — you'll search email later
- Push complex itineraries — simple plans work better
