The Art of Slow Travel
Explore the world with exciting people. Discover hidden trails, coastal adventures, and the profound art of slow travel — stories written by explorers for explorers.
What This Is
Passed By Here publishes long-form, first-person travel writing focused on slow travel: in-depth guides to specific places and experiences, written by people who actually went. Stories and guides from travellers who believe the journey matters as much as the destination.
It's an independent, ad-free travel journal — nothing runs behind a paywall, and there's no advertising slowing the page down.
What You'll Find Here
- Destination guides — practical, on-the-ground details for planning a trip, from best time to visit to how to get there.
- Long-form stories — travel writing that goes beyond a quick recap, the kind of piece worth sitting down with.
- Original photography — images from the places we actually write about, not stock photos.
How It's Written
Our editorial focus is on thoughtful, authentic travel writing — firsthand accounts and practical guides from people who were actually there, not aggregated or generic filler. We're always interested in hearing from fellow slow-travel writers with a story or a place worth documenting; reach out via the contact link on our FAQ page with a short pitch.
