Slow Travel: Escape the Grind and Explore the World by Jennifer M. Sparks
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
This short travel book focused on the planning aspects of long-term travel. The author speaks from experience, having gone on a number of multi-month trips she relates here. If anything, her trip descriptions are just background here, as the focus is on the planning of extended trips. The author provides some useful ideas on deciding what you want to get out of travel, deciding where to go, affording extended trips, preparing your home and career for absence, packing, and more. The author provides short checklists here, but they are mostly quite high-level “did you think about” items and not the kind of checklist with details. Overall, a good overview of planning for extended trips, with a balance of example and how-to suggestions.
