Slow Travel in Europe
Planning a trip to Europe can feel overwhelming. I create practical guides and soulful stories that show you exactly what you need to know— while inspiring a deeper, more meaningful connection to every place you visit.

Hello and welcome— I’m so glad you’re here.
I’m Renee Hannes, and for more than 35 years, I’ve explored France, Germany, Italy, Portugal, and Spain — not as a checklist traveller, but as a seeker of stories, culture, and connection.
Today, I use that knowledge to help travellers like you plan slower, more meaningful journeys. Through tailored itineraries and destination guides, I’ll show you the hidden gems and authentic experiences that bring Europe to life.
