Saba – Perfect for Slow Travel – Albert + Michael – Saba Island Properties
We see a valuable trend in the travel business called Slow Travel because time and attention are more desired and beneficial for people now than ever.
Slow Travel is the personal choice to experience a destination without speeding through several cities or countries in a 3-day weekend and not doing it with masses of people but instead living in the culture of one new place and letting it thoroughly affect you.
It’s about self-care. The attitude to moving slowly with intent, leisurely enjoying quality time connecting with people, land, and environment, to regenerate with what is meaningful and really matters to you for your life and work.
People also want to positively impact their visit to a new location, not rushing or spending lost time in lines, plodding through security, packing and unpacking, and hustling onto planes, boats, trains, and buses.
Not wasting personal downtime.
Being curious and surprised.
Spotting and creating opportunities.
Drenching yourself in customs, history, and daily rituals.
Limiting technology and the fast pace of cities and working life.
Slow travel walks away from conventional tourism and offers unique experiences where hospitality is honored and shared with visitors.
Why squeeze a million activities into an overcrowded travel schedule?
Slow travel involves adopting a new, refreshing mind and heart set that focuses on deep and relevant connections.
Slow travel is a way of living. It’s about embracing the journey as much as the destination and enjoying the present moment without worrying about the next one.
The philosophy behind slow travel is based on three core principles: immersion, connection, and mindfulness.
Immerse yourself in travel to one place and welcome change, growth, and new feelings.
Take your time connecting to a unique location with all your senses and learning equipment.
Be mindful of the difference between a new foreign land and what the local community offers you. Living in the moment. All the moments of being a ‘Slomad.’ Relish the calm tempo of travel and how it extends into the place you’re spending time at… spending time… spending time.
It’s why we chose to live on Saba these past 12 years. The Pace – The Quality of Life – Friends – Work without stress and with people we like who want to learn about life on Saba.
Saba is Beautiful – Safe – Friendly – Pristine – an exceptional Caribbean island Lifestyle that intends to meet and exceed people’s expectations for travelers, tourists, explorers, divers, hikers, creatives, relaxation for your wants and needs
With more people and companies working remotely, people want a better blend between work and relaxing personal time. Living your best life is the leader.
Deliberately douse yourself in the wonder of Saba for a long time. Linger and soak up a different and richly original and unforgetable place. Saba is the ideal place for Slow Travel > >> >>> >>>>

Why Saba?
After living and working in New York City for 40+ years I leaped right out of the rat race of corporate America; leaving behind the relentless stress and competition that was wasting me; to rediscover what really matters to me in life.
We went looking for a new home all over the world - the Azores, the Maldives, France, Italy, Spain, Morocco, Malta, the Caribbean and by pure luck, found Saba.
Saba gives me peace, joy, freedom and a community where I feel I belong. People are respected here; living free and open, in the heart of deep nature and incredible beauty. It's a remarkable change.
The work we do enables us to care about other people. Helping them find a new home with practical empathy for their needs and dreams. It's an emotional investment. To listen. To understand. It's work that matters to us. Work we're proud of.
Maybe you have similar yearnings for change. Wanting a better way to live.
A place where you feel at home, with yourself and with the world.
You might just be looking for a new spot to vacation. Unique. Unknown. Crowd-less. Safe. Friendly.... Hello Saba.
Or... you're already hooked on Saba and keep coming back year after year because you love it! Booking your favorite hotel and room or renting a Saba cottage or villa.
Or... Saba's lifestyle makes you dream of a bigger change. A more personal connection to this exclusive, wonder of an island. Something lasting. Just yours and investing in a home is fixed in your mind and heart.
Feel free to email me and let's find out exactly what you want and see - Is the Caribbean island of Saba right for you? Let's make those thoughts and wishes a reality and then... they won't be thoughts and wishes anymore.
I look forward to saying to you one day --'Welcome home!
Be it for a week or... a lifetime.
