For the meandering visitor who looks at a wrong turn as a chance for discovery, slow travelling is a chance to visit like a local, greeting the coffee shop owner, finding a special hike, and tasting the regional cuisine. It’s meeting new friends or retreating to a quiet space, it’s biking through back-roads or finding a peaceful stream to sit and read a book.
I like to travel this way now that I’m retired. I wish I would have discovered the simple joy of slowing down long ago. Slow travel is a relaxing, fun and great time to unwind. The adventures are the daily discoveries travelers find all over the world. I don’t want a jam packed itinerary now, but rather a vacation with down time. Time to reflect and have a glass of wine with new friends. Time to paint or write, time to create.
If you are looking for slow travel tips, ideas, and itineraries, as well as news and stories about others seeking a local experience, Late Start Adventures is for you!
