Work With Us

Let's make something together.

We partner with brands, tourism boards, and fellow travel folks when the fit is right. If your story belongs in front of thoughtful midlife travelers, we’d love to hear about it.

Who you would be working with

Two travelers, a loyal slow-travel audience

We’re Todd and Mairin, an American couple who has lived abroad for ten years. We write about slow travel, food and culture, housesitting, and gentle adventure for readers in the second half of life.

Our audience is midlife travelers who plan carefully, read to the end, and trust a real recommendation over a flashy ad. They value depth, good food, and travel that respects the places they visit. We share what we actually use and love, which is exactly why people listen.

How this works

Ways we can work together

A few of the ways we collaborate. If you have something else in mind, tell us and we’ll talk it through.

Brand Partnerships

Sponsored stories and honest reviews of gear, stays, and tools we would actually pack. We only say yes to things we believe in.

Destination Collaborations

Tourism boards and local operators: bring us somewhere worth slowing down for and we will tell its story the way we tell our own.

Trip-Planning Help

One-on-one help shaping a slower, smarter itinerary. We are putting this together now, so consider it coming soon.

Before we say yes

What we care about

We turn down more than we accept. Here’s what guides every collaboration we take on.

01

Authenticity first

We only share things we have used and would recommend to a friend. If we would not pay for it ourselves, we will not put our name on it.

02

Slow and intentional

The work has to fit how we travel: unhurried, curious, and respectful of the people and places on the other end of the trip.

03

Honest with our readers

Anything sponsored gets labeled clearly, and the opinions stay ours. That trust is the whole reason this works, and we guard it.

Let's talk
