3 items to pack as a conscious traveller

As a conscious traveller, you care about our environment. To reduce your footprint, you also want to reduce waste. Who hasn’t heard of all the problems caused by plastic polluting our environment and waters!

Here are three things that you as a conscious traveller can pack to avoid completely unnecessary new plastic waste:

1. Water container such as a Nalgene bottle – avoid wasting water bottles and plastic cups (read why and how to get a refill)
2. Backpack or cotton bag – avoid wasting plastic bags to carry purchases or supplies
3. Your own toiletries – avoid wasting tiny shower gel, shampoo and other plastic containers in your hotel
