Slow travel means staying longer in fewer places instead of racing between sights.

Choose a base

Pick one town or neighbourhood with good day trips nearby, so you unpack once.

Leave empty days

Plan one thing a day and leave room for markets, walks and whatever you discover.

Live like a local

Shopping at local markets and using public transport makes the week cheaper and more memorable.
