Our Story
Real stories from a family that is leaving it all behind to travel the world slowly.
Hi! We’re Anca, Andrew, and Emily, the family behind Sloth Mode Travel.
We’ve just made a huge decision: we’re selling everything, leaving our home in the U.S., and preparing to travel the world, slowly.
Why? Because life’s been moving too fast, and we’re ready for a new rhythm. One where our days are led by curiosity, not calendars. One where we get to actually be together, not just squeeze in time between obligations.
Sloth Mode Travel is where we’re sharing this journey, from early planning to life on the road, and everything in between. We're hoping our real stories will inspire and help you choose to create the life you imagine for yourself and your family.
Here, you'll find:
• ✈️ Honest tips for traveling with a toddler
• 🎒 Family gear guides & slow travel resources
• 🌍 Inspiration for living with less and experiencing more.
We’re not experts — just a real family choosing to move differently. And we’re so glad you’re here to grow with us.
What is Sloth Mode?
It’s not just how we travel, it’s how we live.
We stay longer. Move slower.
We trade to-do lists for toddler-led wanders.
We choose presence over pressure. And we want to help other families do the same.
Go slow. Travel light. Stay present.
