Coliving & Remote Work Glossary
What is Intentional Travel?
Intentional travel is about moving through the world with purpose — choosing where you go, how you stay, and what you experience based on your values, goals, and lifestyle. It’s the opposite of checklist tourism. It’s slower, more meaningful, and often more connected to local people and cultures.
It’s not just where you go — it’s why you go, and how you show up when you’re there.
Why Does Intentional Travel Matter for Digital Nomads or Remote Workers?
When your lifestyle involves working from anywhere, it’s easy to get caught up in constantly moving. Intentional travel helps create balance — making space for deeper experiences, better connections, and a stronger sense of home, even when you’re far from where you started.
It also makes remote life more sustainable — emotionally, financially, and environmentally.
How Does Nomadico Relate to Intentional Travel?
Nomadico exists because of intentional travel. Our homes are designed for people who want to live and work with purpose — not just bounce between Airbnbs. We choose locations based on community, seasonality, and local partnerships — not tourist hotspots — and we focus on helping guests plug into a more meaningful way of living.
It’s about connection, not just convenience.
Common Misconceptions About Intentional Travel
“It’s only for slow travelers or full-time nomads.”
Anyone can travel intentionally — even for a weekend. It’s a mindset, not a time commitment.
“It means giving up comfort.”
Not at all. Intentional doesn’t mean roughing it — it means being thoughtful about what you value.
“It’s just another travel trend.”
It’s a response to fast, disposable travel — and a way to build more sustainable, fulfilling experiences on the road.
