Responsible Travel Reminders:
Before you go, do some research on your destination(s). Check out the local public transportation, farmer's markets, and locally-owned shops and restaurants.
Be sure to pack responsibly and lightly, including sustainable toiletries, a reusable or filtered water bottle, sustainable essentials like reef-safe sunscreen, multipurpose items such as reusable tote/shopping bags and a sarong or microfiber towel, reusable utensils to cut down on single-use plastics, and healthy snacks.
Be sensitive to and respectful of the local customs, dress, etc. Learn key phrases in the local language, buy local products and food, pay a fair price, and be mindful of where you shop, focusing on supporting the local community.
Use local public transport and travel overland by train and bus as much as possible instead of flying.
Be mindful of energy and water use at your lodging, keeping it to a minimum, recycle and compost when you can, and dispose of trash properly.
When exploring, stay on designated trails, respecting natural habitats and sensitive ecosystems, keep a respectful distance from wildlife, and be sure to pick up and carry trash out.
