Green Travelling – Einfach nachhaltig reisen. A book by Julia-Maria Blesin

Posted on February 3, 2024March 12, 2024 by Anika

A little (German) book tip for spring! The book “Green Travelling – Einfach nachhaltig reisen” was published by the oekom Verlag in 2021, but has lost little of its topicality. Anyone looking for climate-friendly inspiration for travel destinations, packing lists and means of transport this year will find great ideas, tips and travel anecdotes in…

Student project: A Slow Travel Map for Constance

Posted on January 22, 2024February 4, 2024 by Anika

For the winter semester 2023/2024, I was appointed as a guest lecturer at the University of Constance. As part of the “Schlüsselqualifikation N“, four seminar days were available over two weekends to introduce the topic of “sustainable travel” to participants from various courses of study. In the seminar, the students learnt about the green travel…

Internship in the Caribbean – Far away from white dreamy beaches

Posted on January 8, 2024January 16, 2024 by Anika

In 2007, Sonja completed a five-month internship abroad in the Caribbean. Born in Stuttgart, she was 24 years old at the time and in the middle of her studies. Travelling at that time was still a bit of an adventure: hardly anyone had a smartphone – Apple launched the first iPhone ever in 2007 –…

Pro-Con: Do cruises count as Slow Travel?

Posted on September 29, 2023October 1, 2023 by Anika

Everyone knows the principle of cruising. On a cruise ship, travellers move at a leisurely pace from one port of call to the next before disembarking. Only selected attractions or towns are visited on site. The entire destination and the surrounding area are not covered, also due to time constraints – some “Must-Sees” are left…

Slow Travel – Unterwegs in Schleswig-Holstein. A German book by Elke Weiler

Posted on September 1, 2023October 1, 2023 by Anika

On the German book market, there are hardly any books that deal with the topic of Slow Travel. I was all the more curious when I discovered the newly published travel guide by author Elke Weiler in the spring of 2023. Published by Ellert & Richter Verlag in Hamburg, the book highlights selected places in…

Trans-Siberian Railway. Solo as a woman from Moscow to Beijing

After her first years of work in Freiburg, Julia quit her job and embarked on a long-term journey that would take her to the other side of the world in 20 months, from Russia via China and Vietnam to New Zealand. She covered the first leg on the Trans-Siberian Railway from July to September 2017….

High-speed Interrail trip – Paris, London and Amsterdam in five days

Posted on January 30, 2023August 30, 2023 by Anika

The background story of the Interrail trip of the four students Isabelle, Jeni, Pauline and Zoé from southern Germany is quite unusual: an unexpected ticket win had led to their trip together. Having just started their studies in Freiburg, none of the four friends had planned to go city hopping in Europe. Money is tight…

Pro-Con: Are Safaris Slow Travel?

Posted on December 16, 2022August 30, 2023 by Anika

Sandra, in her mid-thirties, works as a manager at a game reserve in Kenya. Tourists come here from all over the world to go on safaris to see the many African animals that live in the area. As a Kenyan with German roots, Sandra is able to respond ideally to the different guests with German,…

Bodensee mit Kindern. A book by Annette Sievers

Posted on July 25, 2022August 30, 2023 by Anika

Slow Travel meaning sustainable and slowed-down travel works with kids, too. But to do so you don’t need to travel far: the biggest lake of Germany, Lake Konstanz, is an ideal holiday destination that has especially for families much to offer. Who travels along the so-called “Swabian sea” crosses the neighboring countries Austria and Switzerland….

From Europe to the Caribbean by catamaran. A cruise

Posted on February 27, 2022August 30, 2023 by Anika

To sail once the Atlantic – from the Southern end of Europe to the Caribbean! This sounds like a wild dream that many people have in their minds but exceedingly few act the thought out in reality. The two student colleagues Niko and Nicklas actually dared it. The three-monthly sailing cruise was just a small…

About TRAVEL SLOWLY

The TRAVEL SLOWLY blog was founded in September 2020 by Anika Neugart to publicize Slow Travel as a form of travel. It is not a private travel blog, but a source of information.

In view of climate change and over-tourism in many areas of the world, travel behaviour should change. Slow Travel is a sustainable and therefore modern way of travelling.

TRAVEL SLOWLY offers explanations of the term “Slow Travel” as well as regular blog posts (see article).
