What is Slow Travel? | 5 Reasons to Slow Travel through Southeast Asia
In this video, we take a step back and tell you all a little more about what we are doing with this KZread channel and how we are traveling around the world, starting in Southeast Asia.
We're currently in Chiang Mai, Thailand, and we're able to do this kind of perpetual travel not only because we retired early, but because we're doing something called Slow Travel (on a budget).
Check out this video where we explain the top 5 reasons why Slow Travel works for us and allows us to backpack around the world on a budget, and maybe you can too!

That's a really interesting perspective. I suppose one could also slow travel in small increments by only visiting one destination and staying there for, say, two weeks. Wishing you both continued fun and safe travels.
When booking accommodations in unfamiliar places, do you investigate the neighborhoods first to make sure you are going to stay in a safe neighborhood or is that unnecessary?

Yes! We read a lot of reviews first and even view the neighborhood with Google maps street view. Plus we research which are recommended areas.

Hola! Our best advice is to use AirBnB and do searches for accommodations for at least one month. You will see a variety of options that include a one month discount. You can try other sites as well such as Agoda and Booking.com. All can be good ways to see the real prices that will inform your budget.
