How To Find Balance in a Slow Travel Lifestyle While Working For Yourself with Chelsea Riffe

TITLE

“Now, I’ve finally figured out my pace of travel after A LOT of trial and error... I think now it’s probably 3-6 months in a place and then move to a new place... The one month and then picking up and going somewhere the next month was way too quick for me.”
— Chelsea Riffe
