Do You Know Sini? Slow Travel Repeat and the Art of Slowing Down
Do you know Sini? If you are into slow travelling, you might want to check out her website, Slow Travel Repeat.
We spend a lot of time here writing about coliving, remote work, and the practical side of building a life on the move. Faster wifi, better colivings, cheaper months in Bansko. What we talk about less often is the pace of it all. And that is exactly the gap Sini fills. She runs Slow Travel Repeat, a wellness travel site built on one simple promise, that you can live every day like you are on a wellness retreat.
She knows the topic well. She has a Master of Tourism Research and is a YTT-500 certified yoga teacher, so the slow-living side comes from actual study and practice rather than just vibes. Her whole approach fits into three words she keeps coming back to. Slow down. Travel mindfully. Repeat the practices that matter.
Slow living, the part most nomads skip
If you have moved around for a while, you know the trap. You change countries to slow down, and somehow end up busier than before. New city, new coworking space, new backlog of things to see before you leave. Sini's answer to this is what she calls slow living, and it runs through everything on her site.
Slow living, the way she frames it, is less about where you are and more about how you move through your day. It is the evening spent reading a mindfulness article instead of scrolling your phone. It is keeping the yoga routine even when the location changes. It is treating attention as something worth protecting rather than something to give away for free.
The clearest expression of this is her work on the digital detox. She has built a whole collection around reclaiming your time and attention, including a free 7-day challenge and honest writing on why a digital detox is worth doing in the first place. For anyone who works online and lives online, which is most of us, this is the part of her site I would start with.
Slow travel, the version that actually changes you
Where slow living is the mindset, slow travel is how Sini applies it on the road. And it looks very different from the standard travel blog checklist.
Her destination guides are built for the mindful traveller, not the box-ticker. Slow mornings, yoga by the sea, and local dining in Spain. Nature connection, northern lights, and untouched wilderness in Finland. Berber handcrafts and African sunsets in Morocco, along with quieter corners like Senegal and Oman. The thread running through all of them is the same. Stay longer, notice more, and let a place shift your energy instead of just adding it to a list.
This is where her world and ours overlap the most. Slow travel and coliving want the same thing. Both are a reaction against rushing. When I started out as a digital nomad I travelled fast, mostly a new city every week, and I told myself I was seeing more. What I was really doing was skimming. With time you learn that staying in one place longer makes for a much better experience, and it took me a while to actually believe that. When you base yourself somewhere for three months in a coliving, you are already doing slow travel whether you call it that or not. You shop at the same market every week, you learn which café has the good mornings, you build a small routine. That is the thing Sini writes about, just made explicit.
Her focus on wellness stays and retreats fits neatly alongside how a lot of nomads already travel. A handpicked hotel that leaves you refreshed, a yoga retreat that resets you between longer stints, a spiritual destination when you need to think. It is the same instinct that makes someone choose a community-first coliving over an anonymous apartment.
Repeat, bringing the retreat home
The third piece is the one I find most useful, and it is the part most travel writing forgets. What happens when you get home?
This is what her REPEAT method is about. Instead of treating a retreat as a one-off high that fades within a week, she shares tools to keep the practices going in ordinary life. Free online retreats you can do from your living room, daily rituals, a 5-day feel-good series. The idea is that the calm you find in Alicante or the Azores should not be left behind at the airport. You repeat the things that worked until they become normal.
For a nomad, this closes a real loop. You can be intentional about where you go and still lose the plot the moment you land somewhere new. Having a set of repeatable practices is what turns a nice trip into a sustainable way of living.
Why we are pointing you her way
We work with colivings and remote workers all day, and the people who seem happiest on the road are rarely the ones optimising the hardest. They are the ones who have found their own rhythm and protect it. Sini writes about that well, and a lot of her stuff is free to use.
If slowing down is something you have been meaning to get to, and let us be honest, most of us have, her site is a good place to start.
