I had this idea a few weeks ago to start a weekend itinerary for Dripping Springs based on the Enneagram personality profiles!
Tourism is a huge part of the local economy (along with all of those guests for the hundreds of weddings we host here!) and knowing what’s available is so helpful!
I have people from all over contact me online to ask where to go when they visit the area and my first questions are about their personality and what sounds fun to them. Are they introverts or extroverts? Do they love adventure or relaxing? History or experiences?
I try to figure out what to recommend tailored to their personality preferences and then recently decided to make an entire blog thread with ideas so that I can send them out when people ask!
Here is my next one for the Enneagram 8!!
Type 8s are known as “The Challenger.” This itinerary is designed to resonate with Type 8’s love for intensity, control, and new challenges.
