Ever feel like you're traveling just to check off boxes—and missing the whole point? Same.
In today’s episode, we’re talking about slowing the heck down, building a travel lifestyle that actually feeds you, and being real about how tough routines are when you’re living on the road.
I brought on two of my favorite humans, Candace and Logan—van lifers, creators, and truly intentional travelers who’ve been doing this since before it was cool (yep, pre-#VanLife). We dive into what slow travel really means (hint: it’s not just staying longer), how they built their creative routines from the road, and how to avoid being “that” tourist when you post about tiny towns online.
✨ This episode is a love letter to living slower, consuming less, and being deeply rooted in how we show up as travelers.
We’re covering:
- The actual rules of intentional travel—no, really
- Why overposting can hurt local communities (and what to do instead)
- How to balance creating content without burning out
- Our favorite hippie routines (brushing your teeth with clay, anyone?)
- A brutally honest take on travel and routine while living in a van
- The books and tools that shaped how Logan & Candace travel today
