I love to travel, and I’m a pretty social person. But there are some days where I want to be by myself, wander around, meet new people without the pressure of making friends or being friends with strangers. When I travel by myself, I’m always having my adventures.
We are indeed living in trying times, and it’s been hard to feel hopeful while feeling hopeless. However, right now, more than ever, we have to be resourceful and community-oriented. This pandemic isn’t an invitation to act like an entitled jackass. Instead, look at how you could help your local economy thrive. Your dollars help your community by staying in your community. As always, practice proper social distancing and only send healthy people in your family out to get food.
Traveling shouldn’t require you to add more carbon footprints. Zero waste travel saves Mama Globe and adds the jingle to our pockets. How can you go wrong? If you’ve been meaning to dip your toes in the world of zero waste travel, I’ve come up with a simple zero waste travel carry-on kit. Remember we want to use what we have first before buying anything.
I’m near wine country and rarely take advantage of it. I also have beaches, deserts, and mountains all within driving distance. Okay, now I just sound ridiculous.
As always, if you are in need of a physical book it goes without saying that your local library can assist you. Some libraries and schools offer access to Mango Languages, which is essentially a better and free version of Rosetta Stone. By the way, never buy Rosetta Stone. That’s just my two Euros.
