I actually like staying in one apartment for 3 months in Medellin instead of moving every week
Everyone says you have to keep moving to really experience a place, but after bouncing between 9 cities in 4 months my best week was just staying in Laureles, cooking breakfast at home, and going to the same corner spot until the guy knew my order, so I'm curious if anyone else has tried slowing down instead of chasing a new city every 5 days.
Whoa hold on, is this actually a big debate people are having? I've done the slow thing too and yeah it was great, but I don't get why it has to be one way or the other. Some trips I want to see ten places and some trips I want to sit in one neighborhood and eat the same tacos every day, and both of those were worth it for different reasons. The people saying you HAVE to keep moving are just loud, same as the people saying you HAVE to slow down. Do whatever fits your budget and your mood that month, it's really not that deep.
