As the holidays adds stress consider applying the concept of slow travel. It's designed to give your mind, body, and soul a boost. So, instead of rushing to your next destination take the time to enjoy the little things in life like a nice glass of wine at Three Forks Bakery from a small natural winery @ellsworth_wines that is grown on a 1.5 acre farm here in Nevada County.
Because these are the things that make you happy, wherever in the world you may be.
