Why low-stimulation and sensory-friendly travel?
Slow travel isn’t just about taking your time—it’s about experiencing the world in a way that feels comfortable, mindful, and truly enjoyable. For neurodivergent and introverted travelers, fast-paced itineraries and overstimulating environments can lead to stress and exhaustion. By embracing slow travel, you can prioritize sensory-friendly experiences, minimize overwhelm, and immerse yourself in destinations at your own pace. Whether it’s savoring a quiet morning by the ocean, exploring a city without the rush, or finding accommodations that support rest and recharge, slow travel allows for deeper connections and more fulfilling journeys.
With slow travel, you get to:
🌿 Embrace a relaxed pace, allowing you to truly savor each destination without feeling rushed.
🏡 Prioritize your well-being by choosing sensory-friendly environments that reduce overwhelm.
✨ Cultivate deeper, more meaningful connections with places, people, and experiences.
🧘♀️ Travel mindfully, reducing stress and leaving behind the exhaustion of traditional, fast-paced trips.

Why I Travel Slow
After visiting eight countries, earning a degree in tourism administration, and spending four years in tourism marketing, I found myself dreading upcoming trips. Why? Wasn’t travel supposed to be the reward for putting up with our 9-to-5s?
This blog is my pursuit to share another way. A slower, gentler way of travel—one that’s accessible to everyone, not just extroverts or adventure-seekers. Travel should be for all of us, at a pace that honors our needs and creates space for the joy and wonder of exploration, without the overwhelm. Here you’ll find low-stimulation and sensory-friendly travel inspiration, guides, and tips. Happy traveling!
