Slow #Travel
InspireToWander
A2 #inspiretowander Iโm typically limited to 2 weeks at a time for vacation, so no, I run a fairly tight schedule, 2 or 3 days per place.
replying to @toffeebugs @toffeebugs Yes totally! You don't need to make too many plans, just what happens along the way! #InspireToWander
replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO A2. I do it very often. I like because I take my time. I am not in a rush to count how many places I have been. I just want to enjoy everything that the place has for me. #InspireToWander
replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel A2 no limited vacation time so I'll cramming everything I can in #inspiretowander
#InspireToWander A 2) We've been trying harder to plan slow travel trips. Though we have fun during the trips when we go-go-go, we find we come home exhausted instead of renewed
replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A2: my husband and I went to Switzerland where we were supposed to relax and read books by the lake. After about 10 minutes I needed to move and do something. Iโm terrible at slow travel ๐ #InspiretoWander
replying to @obligatraveler @obligatraveler LOL that's usually my life! I end up tired when I get home but it's always so worth it. #InspireToWander
replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A1: You spend a few weeks somewhere enjoying the location. #InspireToWander
replying to @WanderingWmn @WanderingWmn @inspiretowander That's like me and going to beach resorts. I'm good with about a half day of beach and then I'm looking for the next thing to do! #InspireToWander
replying to @WanderingWmn @WanderingWmn @inspiretowander Hahaha I feel you! I can hang out and relax for a little while but then I have to get up and do something! #InspireToWander

A3. Mexico City in July. We did tour the Zocalo with my cousin one day, but stayed in Mixcoac south of COndessa. We explored different nighborhoods further out this time like Lomas de Chapultepec and Coyoacan. #inspiretowander
replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A2: Hmm if the hubs is working there yes, if not no, Iโm a busybody, so I go go go. #InspireToWander

replying to @RybaMichele @RybaMichele Ah yes, pesky vacation time! Definitely have to make the most of it! #InspireToWander
A1. Hello from NY. for me slow travel is staying somewhere long enough where you get to do the more routine things like go to the grocery store. You really get to meet the people #InspireToWander
replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A1 Slow Travel is to enjoy everything, the sounds, people, places, moments, flavors and not rushing to take the best photos at the touristic places only. #InspireToWander
replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO I haven't been out that way either. The pre and post trips looked amazing! Can't wait to see your pictures! #inspiretowander
replying to @WanderingWmn @WanderingWmn @inspiretowander Me too, mind racing with what I'm missing, only time I feel like I can slow travel is cruising (days at Sea) ๐ #Inspiretowander
replying to @WanderingWmn @WanderingWmn @inspiretowander Switzerland is one of those little places with a lots to do. For me, I got on the train & took beautiful day trips to all the other towns. #inspiretowander
A3: Hmm, that's a tough one! I'd have to say @TownofFortSmith but that even still felt like a whirlwind because there was so much to see & do! #InspireToWander
replying to @epicureanexpats @epicureanexpats Thanks! And how about you, what are you up to next? #InspireToWander
replying to @obligatraveler @obligatraveler I find my self exhausted but invigorated if that makes any sense #inspiretowander
replying to @aok_NW @aok_NW @WanderingWmn @inspiretowander That sounds absolutely magical! I'd love to explore more of Switzerland! #InspireToWander
replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel We've only visited Canada in the fall and winter (and loved it!). We have plans for a spring-summer trip to Nova Scotia, just not sure which year #inspiretowander
replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A2 It depends on the place, but I try to take at least one day to make it slow. #InspireToWander
replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO A3. Last year when going back to #Barcelona. I love that city so much, everyday I found something new. I take my time to walk the city and enjoy all what it has to offer. #InspireToWander
I always make a point of going grocery shopping in other countries. It's one of my favourite things! #InspireToWander https://t.co/R2aisaHSSL
A3 Singapore, I gave it most of 2 weeks just because there is a lot to see, but did do it slow. #inspiretowander
replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander A4: Spent almost 2 weeks in Bulgaria this summer and we just really enjoyed our time there. It was lovely. Before that it was Germany last year for 3 weeks and same thing we just soaked it up. #inspiretowander
replying to @IBBtravel @IBBtravel A3. Not really sure this counts but loving in Germany because we had the time to explore it thoroughly #inspiretowander. But again not vacation time.
replying to @epicureanexpats @epicureanexpats Amazing! Eastern Canada is absolutely magical. There's so much to see and do! I'm so excited for you ๐ #InspireToWander
replying to @WanderingWmn @WanderingWmn @inspiretowander Yep! Me too! #inspiretowander
#Inspiretowander A 3) When we visited Elbow Cay, Bahamas
( poor elbow cay right now) We picked it on purpose because there wasn't a lot to do so we could sip coffee slowly, take leisurely morning walks, and just chill
replying to @amaixico @amaixico @inspiretowander I can do one slow day ๐ #InspireToWander
replying to @JustinLaurenXO @JustinLaurenXO Mexico City later this month for petsitting, then NYC, Madrid, Malta, and Sicily for 5 weeks in November. I'm excited to be over there while there are Christmas markets! #inspiretowander
replying to @RybaMichele @RybaMichele That would be amazing though! Do you miss it? I've been contemplating taking a year and moving to Germany so I can experience it fully! I'm thinking around Frankfurt or Rรผdesheim... but time will tell! #InspireToWander
replying to @cleverwomanNY @cleverwomanNY Local snacks are the best snacks! #InspireToWander
replying to @inspiretowander @inspiretowander I'd have to go with Flores, Guatemala and ARCAS where I volunteered helping wildlife. We spent 10 days almost entirely in this one small area and went to Flores daily after our volunteer shifts. I got to know that little island pretty well! #InspireToWander

A4. I study city maps for parks and larger maps for the smallest villages marked near lakes, rivers or beaches.That's how we discovered Roses, Cadeques and Llanca on the Costa Brava with a stop in Girona as well. #inspiretowander
