The Importance of Slow Travel with Brittany Anas

While we all love to discover different places when we travel, we often plan trips using the same formulaic method: We research, book, and then research and book some more. On one hand, it makes sense. We want to see as much as we can in the short time we have to travel. But the downside to that is that we rush through these experiences, ticking those must-see boxes as we go.
