"Slow Travel" is something I define as "traveling at a reduced pace that allows for deeper immersion." There are many different ways to make this happen and in this piece I share why I prefer to do things way and how I make it a reality in my life.

I traveled like this years and years ago when I was young and didn't have responsibilities. This form of travel is a huge luxury, and you're very privileged to be able to do it. It's unrealistic for most people. But maybe when I retire, I'll be able to do it again.
That is quite true. However, it also depends on which direction you want to take your life in. If you desire a settled life with a family then it gets all the more difficult to pursue something like this. But if someone wants to live independently, like I'm assuming Nathaniel does, then it gets slightly easier :)
I don’t think it’s unrealistic at all! 6 mos is plenty long enough to get a job or do odd jobs in each location.
Brandi Sweetwater it could be unrealistic depending on which country you're from.
Brandi Sweetwater I imagine it to be very difficult to find a job in a country in which you’re not familiar with anything and maybe hardly know the language, even though I wish I could make this possible
If you choose not to take on responsibilities (which you're free to) then you can maintain your freedom.
As someone who has spent the last couple years “slow traveling” (4 months in Stockholm, Sweden, 6 months in Amman, Jordan, the rest in NYC), I can verify that the benefits and drawbacks of this are totally accurate! Living in three places that are that different within the course of two years completely changes the way you see cultural difference. Even though I spoke Arabic before I lived in Jordan, the language became real to me in a way in never had before. You learn all of these expressions and cultural allusions that make you feel so at home in the language. Even though I never became conversationally proficient in Swedish, it’s amazing how much you learn of a language just by running errands and interacting with clerks at the grocery store and bus drivers, etc. It definitely helps you gain an incredibly deep understanding of the world and what it means to be an insider/outsider. At the same time, the honeymoon phase always wears off for me at about 2 months. At that time, there were things that were charming become a bit exhausting, but I find that by 3 months, there’s suddenly a point where everything gets easier and you really begin to feel at home! As Nathaniel mentioned, dating is really difficult, and it is often very painful for me to leave my friends and “family” and community when I go. Still, these places never leave you, and I find myself thinking about the politics, culture, festivals there as well as my friends and coworkers! My best tip for getting the most out of this is to pretend that you will spend the rest of your life in each place! Invest in friendships and the community! Invest in learning the language and the culture! And invest in yourself by really allowing yourself to experience it all!
Thanks for the great video!
Like you said "pretend that you will spend the rest of your life at each place", how do you deal with attachment to the people/places there? Whenever I have to go somewhere for a month or so, I always end up wondering a lot about my previous destination. How do you deal with it when you are going to spend anywhere from 4-5 months at a single place? Would love to hear your advice :D
I'm Jordanian, I'm glad you've been to Jordan. I hope you had a great time !
I love hearing what other people think of my country 🤩
May I ask what you've been doing for work in these countries? I already speak Swedish and know some Arabic, naturally I became interested when reading your comment.
@@noodledoodle6029 Part of it is that I'm really good at keeping in touch with people (which I understand not everyone is good at). But, I make reminders and mark on my calendar when to reach out to people! Then, I also follow the news from that country and eat the food there and keep some of the habits I developed there. (i.e. from Sweden, I kept my habit of only eating candy on Saturdays and going on hikes, and from Jordan, I have kept many of my habits about always eating meals with people and always talking with service workers/cab drivers/people on the street) I also frequently return to the places I have gone before, and then it honestly feels like I'm returning to my family! Even places I haven't lived like Lebanon or Morocco have been wonderful to return to because I know people and now have spent upwards of 2-3 months in each total! I do have friends who are long term and one thing I've found is that the people who make the effort to stay in your life are most worth it. It's not to say that people you fall out of touch with are bad. It's just that they might not play that same role in your life anymore.

You’re seriously one of the best among UA-cam; this content is just gold. Thank you for sharing your experience with the world, Nath.
Thank you!!
My 2019 best find channel
I really like watching European teen vlogs, the vlogs are good, good, fun not busy. I have a dream, I want to travel around Europe. I want to vlog beautiful places in Europe. I want to watch football there directly from the stadium, I want to meet great players there, Jesus Mesdi Dam Baba and others. muhon, support my vlog, I'm now working hard to become a UA-camr and amassing money so that I can travel to expose all of Europe, I'm Indonesian
This is exactly the sort of travel I love. My family always makes fun of me when I say that I'd prefer to stay in one place for a long amount of time rather than see as many places as possible, but I am am the sort of person who loves learning the language, culture and making friends in that country. I want to experience what it is like to live there, which actually makes me appreciate the country for what it really is, rather than just a tourist's perspective who may only stay there from the week.
I'm completely the same way.
Thank you. That is exactly my point of you as well
I’m only 18 but have lived with friends in Italy for a bit, my next stop would be Poland... the people and culture are amazing and I want to have a crack at learning the language
This is how i think too!
I'm Polish, feel free to ask me any questions. I'm currently myself travelling around South East Asia for a few months, being in Vietnam for almost a month now
when Nathaniel mentions DamonAndJo and all your faves come together 🧡
right?!
A passport with benefits makes it a whole lot easier. As a latin I'm struggling a lot to start my working holiday experience because they limit the amount of visas for us. It makes you feel unwanted.
So true, i sometimes can't really relate to some of these travelling hacks and videos because it's a lot easier for them
True. And this is sad, but more sad is that many with a strong passport do not realize how blessed they are... Best to you, hope the situation will change for you.
yeah, passport privilege is real! whenever someone says “travel the world! follow your dreams!”, i have to mentally add “for about three months every year! if they even let you in!”
Specifically in regard to working holiday visas, even a U.S. passport doesn’t give very many opportunities for working holiday visas compared to passports from other first world countries. This is why it’s likely that a significant chunk of Americans who are working and traveling abroad are doing so illegally. I think I’ve read that Mexico has a lot of illegal American immigrants 😂😂 (That is, people from the U.S. living in Mexico illegally)
Same here
I love that you mentioned how when you stay in a country for 3 months, you fall out of the "honeymoon phase" and see the good & bad of everything, which is actual immersion. I experienced this studying abroad in Florence Italy 2018. Slow travel is the wave! A collab between you and Damon & Jo would be aaaaaa-mazing! ❤
I think that whenever we talk about travel, we should include a consideration of the environmental cost of travelling. So, another plus of your travel style is less frequent plane trips, which is good!
I agree, that's something that should be discussed more often. There are also lots of ways to offset some of the environmental impact after flying somewhere.
I would love a video about this!
@@nathanieldrew Do you know www.interrail.eu/en ? It's a way to travel cheaply and see a lot of different cities Europe. For example, if you're between 12-27 you can get a EU-wide travel pass that will allow you 7 travel days to spend throughout 1 month, for only 251,- EUR. : ) Don't know if it's available for non-EU citizens, but it's a very popular option! :)
@@inMuro There is a version for non-Europeans :)
@Big Al That is true. But planes are flying because there's a demand for it. If you contribute to reducing the demand, the offer will diminish as well.
In 2019 I did slow travel in Japan, lived there for 8 months. Had a job, payed rent, learned the language, cooked for myself, got a girlfriend, the whole package. While I was there, I decided to go to other Asian countries, as Japan differs greatly from most of Asia. So I took 3 months for Thailand, Cambodia and Vietnam - a month each. I also found some work there I could do (hostels, teacher, etc.), but the experience is still very different. One month is okay to see a country and also have great experiences, but you don't connect. You don't feel the country.
I will return to Germany in a few weeks (still in Vietnam) and decided to study something international, as this wil give me the opportunity to do this again.
And you're right, studying is for free in Germany. Even for foreigners. It's a bliss, really, haha.
Really? School is free? Is that for all ages?
Craig M Yes. There are many programs in English as well.
@@user-nj1zu2nf1x All universities are, since they are from the state. On the rare cases that you go to private college for Business or Sales, you have to pay though, but its nothing compared to the US
Michael Seraph Wait, so you’re from Germany? With which kind of visa did you go in Japan? It has been one of my dreams for a long time, but exactly, I would like to do it slowly, for a few months, really experience the life and the culture there, find a job ecc.
@@ejooop3934 I had the working holiday visa (which is only available for a few countries, as it's a bilateral agreement). You can only apply for it once in your life, you have to be younger than 30, don't have to pay money for the visa and are allowed to stay for up to 12 months. You are even allowed to leave and re-enter. More information here: www.working-holiday-visum.de/working-holiday-visum-japan/
Teasing with the “if we would like to hear the Portugal story”.. of course we want it brother! Record, talk, film, publish! We will do the liking and subscribing
Just gonna float my theory as to where this story is going: Nate's family original last name was Dourado, is of sephardic origin and his ancestors relocated from Portugal indirectly to Argentina after King Manuel passed his expulsion edict in the late 15th century: www.globalcitizensolutions.com/portuguese-citizenship-sephardic-jews/ Top notch video as always and really curious as to where this story is going!
2:30 changed my view. I despise the 9 to 5 culture, which made me feel some aversion towards people who participate in it. But now I see that I can have a different lifestyle and respect other people their choice to be happy with the 9 to 5 lifestyle.
Btw you are such a real guy, I love that.
I would love to be able to despise the 9 to 5 culture but I can't find a way to get out of it. What do you do for a living ?
i love how he’s self-aware that he’s coming from a privileged standpoint and he’s not forcing his ideas on us who have it less 😊
Casually puts a picture with Massimo Bottura, the best chef in the world.
Who is that guy?
literally who?
you mean Gordon Ramsay
@Alexander Supertramp just google "best chef in the world", I know you want to have an opinion, but facts speak for themselves
@@sergio4660 wtf do I have to read...
Done slow traveling for years now (1 month usually per country) and it’s amazing so much better than short vacations.
This guy is so amazing I’m doing the same living in South Korea learning Korean language at university and working In hostel
Marouen Ouaji thats awesome!
absolute goals! been thinking about doing something like that in korea
May i ask how you applied/round aboutit that job? Were you already in the country or did you apply from your home country? (I'm asking because I want to do something similar but I don't really know where and how to start)
Lorena Durante I was working in different country and I applied from there
I’m preparing to do that this year!!
Love all of this!
Lewis ❤️ ✌🏼
I love that you're looking at travel from a different perspective, it's honest and relatable - not boasting. Really appreciate that!
It's basically what Erasmus travelling life gives you, that's cool
For non-Europeans students: go check what Erasmus scholarship is
alex fokianos It’s a little different because with Erasmus people generally settle into social circles with their peers that are also in the program as opposed to immersing in with the locals and their culture . Of course not everybody tho. :)
@@JoeFletcheraus
You right actually. It was hard for me to avoid other Italians and do something different: the first month I was always at some Erasmus party. Nonetheless it's a nice training for the future, I think I'll embrace this life style
being an au pair in italy was the best decision i ever made. at the time i had practically no money but i had enough saved for a flight to rome so i just went for it. it's great if youre young and broke because not only are you given room and board but legally (in the EU at least) families have to give you an allowance each week. for me this was enough to travel to different parts of italy on weekends. also living with a family (if theyre not, yaknow, awful) is an amazing way to experience a culture. the only downside of au pairing, in my experience at least, is that it can be hard to learn the language of the country youre in since you're forced to speak your native language with the children. if you're young, have no money or concrete plans for the future, i'd say au pairing is the way to go. i just graduated college and am going to be an au pair in spain later this year :)
I've never heard of that, sounds cool... Is it common for Americans to au pair in other countries like that? Did you end up going to Spain or did covid ruin that?
When I was 18 I lived in Thailand for over 5 months and spend one month in Laos. I did volunteer work and travelled, slow, went off the beaten track a lot, spend time in places with no tourists. It was one of the most important journeys of my life and I still benefit from it 14 years later. Most people laughed at me or said how it was shame I didn't see more countries but it was truly majestic to fully emerge myself in Thai culture. Always follow your heart and do what feels right for you.
I did exactly the same in Indonesia:) Stayed there 5 months, slowly travelling, volunteer work, couchsurfing... was amazing:D
Nathan, when I first saw you I was like there is no way I just found my doppelganger. It's crazy!
Burhan Alomari Woah!!
wow, you look IDENTICAL!!
@@eliyasara9786 yes I know!!! Maybe I'll meet him one day. That will be funny 😂
Very crazy😁
Your doppleganger is amazing 😅
As an aspiring short film maker you're videos serve as both inspiration and motivation Nathaniel, thanks for what you do :)
You have literally summed up what I've been trying to explain to my parents as what I want to spend my life doing. Summed up very well.
I am literally you, OMG. You're the first person I've found who shares similar views on travelling and culture and language learning as well as just being real about the experiences and not talking about the glossy version of all of it. First time here and I'm definitely subbing. Thank you for this video~~ #SlowTravel
Seoul In Africa check out Gareth Leonard who has stellar content based on this travel style :)
I’m always blown away by Nathaniel’s insight and awareness. What an incredible person. I feel it is ironic that I find his pragmatic observations about life inspiring. I can’t help but feel inadequate when I remember how young he is.
Omg the cinematography in this is amazing 😍 the content of course too
We are so fortunate to be able to watch your videos, best content online! Big love
I want this kind of lifestyle when I’m done with school. I just turned 17 so I’m not ready yet haha
I’m in the same boat buddy except I got four more years at college and then I can truly start my traveling
Ryan Barretta I’ve been thinking about this a lot since I wrote the comment and I’m thinking about taking a year of after high school to see if this works out for me. After the year I can always go back to go to college if things don’t work out. Don’t know what my parents are going to think of me when I present my future plans but we’ll see🤷♂️
I’m 17 as well lol, where are you looking to travel?? Also where are you from? Coming from a NYC girl who would love to see the northern lights, Ireland, the UK, France, Italy, and Japan
Sophia Figueroa I’m from the Netherlands, I’d love to stay in Japan as well, northern lights are definitely on my list, Would love to live in Canada for some time. Although I’m not sure where I specifically want to start my adventure yet. We’ll see where time brings me
Stasz I wish you luck and happiness !
I completely agree with everything you said on this video! Last year, I lived in Spain for 6 months and it was one of the best things I’ve ever done in my short life. Next week I’m going to London for another 6 months and I cannot wait!!!!!! Hopefully I get to do slow travel for a while :)
Well done man, the editing on this is amazing. Slow travel, mini-retirements, definitely the way to go
Love your videos man, I've been dreaming about this kind of life for years, and now, with your help, I can finally work for it. Thank you ❤️
Since i'm half thai, I often travel to Thailand and feel integrated in the society everytime i come back. I really enjoy my time there, mostly i stay one month per year and because my mom lives there, i have a direct access to culture, people, food and the general lifestyle.
I can completely understand understand your opinion and i found it quite interesting to experience a detailed sight on that topic, but honestly, i'm not that type of person who can stay for a long time in a certain country because at a certain point, i just have the desire to go back to germany. i love going to unknown places and stuff but sometime, i need to return.
seriously love all your videos, you've been such a motivation for me
for me too
For me 2
this has been my plan for the future for years now. I never knew how to describe it since when most people hear “travel the world” they think of the experience you mentioned of changing countries each week. I’ve never heard anyone else desire the “slow travel” lifestyle.
thanks for such a helpful, comprehensive video!
Thank you Nathaniel for the awesome content you've been making , I have been learning a lot from you 💯
What about loneliness? Don't you feel lonely when you go to a different place all by yourself? I want to travel so muh but this is my biggest fear
Hazy Moonbeam it does get lonely especially if you are shy and introverted, it’s up to you to make friends unless you’re gorgeous and people are drawn to you lol
You meet so many people and learn so much.
Being alone while travelling is actually the best way to do it as it really allows you to truly pay attention to the language, landscape and cultural differences around you. I’m about to move to Uruguay for 5 months to be a cowgirl on a ranch in the middle of nowhere and quite frankly, the loneliness aspect is one of the things I’m most looking forward to; it allows to find a kind of serenity and inner peace, as well as deeper creativity if you’re an artist. And if that’s still not your cup of tea, remember that you make friends very easily by living in the same place for extended periods of time. Travelling in this way teaches you so much and the loneliness you might feel is hugely counterbalanced by the wisdom you gain. It can really put things in perspective to feel tiny and insignificant and marvel at the wonder of the world.
Stay in hostels and find like minded people and do tours, it’s always worked for me
@@TomFreer87 thank you so much for answering..however the fear is so big that i might not even be able to travel to somewhere and do that...
I'm Portuguese and I must say, every time I see a video of yours I think to myself you would just love Portugal... Good luck😉
I’m studying in Bologna right now for 10 months and seeing your shots of the city is amazing!
Your Work and how your film making & content are always improving is just inspiring man.
This sounds fantastic. And I completely get your logic.
I’ve lived in four different countries in the past four years, there really are a lot of pros, but there are massive downsides too, the main one being friendships/relationships. Whenever I move to a new country, I feel like it takes a lot of effort and time to build up new connections, and it is even bigger of a challenge to keep up with friends you made in the countries where you lived previously. And not to mention romantic relationships.
I find that to perfectly settle in a country, and build up a network I am satisfied with can take at least two years, and even that doesn’t alleviate the fear of loneliness if/when you return to your home country.
I've had an amazing opportunity to move to Spain (from Finland where I'm from) for eight months, straight after turning eighteen and finishing my college. I have family friends who work as missionaries here, and I worked as their children's homeschool teacher. It has been amazing, and I really look forward to having more experiences like this in the future.
We did travel to multiple countries with family as I was a kid, and I always wished we could have stayed for longer, exactly for the reasons mentioned in the video. I even said to my mom I'd want to have both the tourist perspective of seeing the sights and the perspective of living in the country and be surrounded by the culture and people. I'm thankful I got to experience it with Spain, and God willing with other countries and cultures in the future. All the best for you, Nathaniel!
This is the content I’ve been looking for!! 👏🏼
Has to be one of my favorite youtubers. The content is so straight to the point and insightful.
The transition at 02:39 is just amazing. Love to see a video on how you edit things.
It's called in-camera transition. Ton of videos online :)
Slow travel is exactly what I do as well. I started off doing the traditional travel method and hated it. I feel in love with travel when I slowed down and started living in a country for at least 30 days. Plus those AirBnb's are so much cheaper! when you reserve them by the month!
I'm so in love with your clarity, simpleness and sincerity... The message it's brilliant!
I’ve never even considered doing it this way before. Thank you so much for making this

I did this style of travel for several years since my job is remote. It changed my life. So happy to hear someone put it into words and videos.
I appreciate how real this was, refreshing after seeing a lot of stuff on social media that seems too good to be true.
I'd love to hear about your Portuguese citizenship journey. I'm trying to apply for Italian citizenship by descent and I know that it can be a very long and difficult process.
I really aspire to travel like you someday. ❤
Youre Channel is truly enrichening my life. Youre the first person on UA-cam that makes me feel like being as " just human" as me

Traveling a lot is one of the most exhausting, stressful and productivity-draining things you can do. People that don't travel don't understand that and all they see is the social media posts from digital nomads while only seeing the tip of the iceberg.
Leon Hendrix - Life Of A Wantrepreneur yes, but some people like the entire process. Tired on the plane, grinding out an edit, beauty in the not so obviously beautiful

Spot on with all of this. Been doing this for ten years and you have explained everything beautifully.
How'd you get started? If you don't mind me asking, what do you do for a living that makes this possible long-term?
Your videos are so well structured. These videos are amazing
Just to note that being a 'person of colour' or openly gay will also affect this way of travel. Not knocking it just making people aware because a lot of travel videos portray mostly the privileged as you stated but not only in money and means but cultural and sexual background as well.
also your gender

I've been living like this for a few years, I have lived in three European countries because I love languages and I love being immersed in different cultures. Currently, I live in Sweden and it has been a surreal experience, extremely difficult at times but so rewarding. I never thought I would be speaking fluent Swedish ever!but here I am. haha I never knew this type of travel or whatever was a thing since I am the only one I know who lives like this so seeing someone else on a similar journey, loving languages and moving around exploring and trying life in different countries makes me feel less crazy haha Best of luck to you on your adventures.
Je život nebo jazyk ve Švédsku náročný? Já se vrátil po 3 měsících z Asie a přemýšlím kam se v rámci Evropy přesunout. Napadl mě Tallinn.
@@pumpituppowell Život je dosť náročný, neskutočná byrokracia, nájsť si tu prácu je fakt umenie. Veľa záleží ale od toho ako do krajiny prídeš, či ako študent alebo už s vyhliadnutou prácou, či dobrovoľník alebo naslepo. Na druhej strane, je tu fakt krásne, príroda nádherná a je tu taký pokoj, kľud, pohoda. Aspoň teda v menších mestách, Štokholm je šialený. A zase jazyk je fakt ľahký, aj keď Švédi radi rozprávajú anglicky, takže to chvíľu trvá kým ich presvedčíš, aby sa s tebou rozprávali po švédsky.
this is beautiful! immersing in the culture, learning how others live their life, spending a longer time to absorb their way of living, adapting and adopting new perspectives and ideas... it is absolutely amazing to have an experience like this
I think you just made me realized that this is the style of traveling I feel more comfortable with. Feels like you read my mind. Thank you!!

Slow Traveller = Digital Nomad ?
Bad Videos Don't Subscribe - not necessarily. Digital work is just one of many ways to finance such as journey. Slow travel existed long before the digital age.
Growing up I lived in 6 different countries so what you are talking about makes sense. Each country I’ve lived in has influenced me on a personal level simply because I had the time/privilege to immerse myself in each place I stayed in. It had also changed my perspective on the world. In my cause though, I was a kid growing up thus I didn’t purposefully slow travel lol.
This has been my favorite video of yours :-) your stuff just keeps getting better

So true! Slow travel is the best travel in my opinion. I’ve been able to really get to know a place and build lasting friendships.
I loved how you talked about this! I’m not doing a slow travel but I am living abroad and so many of these points relate to my life too. The love life, that’s a very true point and I find it to be true with many people abroad.
"There is a Better Way to Travel The World : for the people without a permanent job".
You completely forgot the point that majority of people travelling have a permanent source of income for which they need to work generally staying in a particular place and that's why not all like you can afford living somewhere for a longer time period. However if talking about digital nomads, they are a different species altogether.
That's your problem, not ours
Daniel Gomez thats the Problem of literally 90% of the whole population...
Daniel Gomez that’s the problem of 98% of humanity so stfu kid
bro I'm pretty sure he addressed this basically in the beginning--he was like yeah I'm really privileged and from the US and blah blah blah able to make a living in the interwebs
I believe he mentioned that this type of travelling is not for ppl wth a structured 9-5 job and more for those who can live and earn anywhere
MAY I ask a personal question: were you born in September?
Please keep making videos, absolutely love your channel its super helpful and inspiring!
Thank you for this content, and for helping so much of us be aware of all the possibilities no one has told us of ❤️
Still waiting for technology to be so advanced that we can travel around the world in under 12 hrs.
Imagine the possibilities, like celebrating New Year several times a year.
Does anyone know the reddit r/ he's talking about
Digital nomad, link in the description
R/Digital nomads or something i think
Love it! The way to go! "Making a life for yourself in a place."
When I go to a place, I like to stay, get distracted, wander. I like to have enough time to find a favorite street, a store to come back to for that nice dress, and mostly a favorite morning coffee place!
you inspire me! I just graduated with a degree in the states and instead of settling down, I decided to move to Thailand and teach English so I will be here for a few months. I totally agree about how rewarding living in the country is vs going on vacation and paying for the prettier versions. I try to stay in a country for a few months at least. Loved the video!
