Slow Crossings is writing, video, and tools about travel — the kind worth doing right, and the kind that shows up when something in your life is ending or beginning.
I write about slow travel, solo travel, hard travel, unfamiliar travel — routing, cabin selection, the logistics nobody explains well, and also what surfaces when you take a trip like this at exactly the wrong, or right, moment.
Long ocean crossings are my own preferred territory, but the pace is the actual point, not the vehicle — the same attention applies everywhere: long stays, unfamiliar cities, pilgrimages, road trips."
I’m Sean Carney. I write and film from Los Angeles when I’m there, and from ships, trains, and unfamiliar towns when I’m not.
Before this, I spent thirty years in business and coaching. I trained as a coach (PCC) and worked with people in transitions for a long time before I started writing about them. I came to writing slowly, and to slow travel even slower. Some of what shows up here is figured out. Most of it isn’t.
I also book the trips themselves, if you’d rather have someone else handle that part — the crossing, the ship, the cabin, the logistics of getting from here to wherever there is. That’s a separate conversation from this newsletter, but not a separate person.
If that sounds like your kind of thing, subscribe. I publish weekly.
