In this episode, Julia is joined by Clara Francken, host of the Travel Devil podcast, a Belgian-born, Germany-based sustainable traveler who has chosen train travel as a living philosophy. Together, they explore slow travel as an ethical, relational, and deeply human way of moving through the world.
This conversation opens a different doorway into conscious travel โ one rooted in alignment, lived values, connection, and sustainable stewardship of the Earth.

๐ Slow travel as a state of beingHow traveling by train transforms urgency into presence, and movement into meaningful journey.
๐ฑ Sustainability as inner alignmentWhy Claraโs shift away from flying wasnโt a rule โ but a felt sense of integrity and coherence.
๐ Travel as relationship & networkHow traveling through people, languages, and friendships creates a living โnetwork of lightโ across places.
๐ฃ Languages as gateways of connectionHow speaking multiple languages opens cultural doors, intimacy, and embodied understanding.
๐ฟ Stewardship, impact & coexisting truthsFrom picking up trash to rethinking carbon compensation โ how conscious travelers learn to hold complexity with care.
This episode is an invitation to reconsider travel not as consumption โ but as participation, responsibility, and devotion.
