00:02We want to see everything, do everything, and not waste a minute when it comes to traveling.
00:08But slow travel may be a new travel technique that's taking over the time optimist.
00:13Slow travel sits somewhere between an unwinding vacation and an action-packed trip.
00:19The concept is advocating for staying in one place long enough to potentially connect with the local people,
00:25culture, food, and even music.
00:27Phil Dengler, a co-founder of travel information site The Vacationist, says,
00:32Slow travel is about quality over quantity.
00:35Dengler confirms the increasing popularity of slow travel and says data shows the length of hotel stays
00:41is already up 10% in 2023 compared to 2022.
00:46To many travel experts, slow travel is defined as a meditative approach to traveling
00:52that allows people to stop and smell the roses quite literally.
00:56Consider planning your travel with stillness in mind.
01:00Rather than rushing to see it all, you'll likely see the slow travel benefits sooner rather than later.
