Eco Conscious Backpacking

Living environmentally friendly can be challenging while travelling. Below are my 6 tips for eco conscious backpacking:

1) Choosing your Travel Pack: I bought my travel pack from B Corporation certified Kathmandu. I recommend choosing a travel pack that opens luggage-style and has wheels.
2) Purchase biodegradable bathroom essentials. I recommend purchasing Hair and Skin Bars to eliminate the bottle, save room in your travel pack and not risk spillage. I recommend Ethique Hair Bar, Trade Aid New Zealand Comb, Nellies Soaps, Safety Razor, Goodbye Repellent, Solid Oral Care and a Bamboo Toothbrush.
3) Pack reusables: I recommend purchasing a reusable drink bottle and crockery. Check out Intentionally Sustainable Cutlery Sets and Kathmandu Dinner Set.
4) Shop local. I recommend packing reusable bags and purchasing dry food at refilleries.
5) Walk, cycle and take public transport.
6) "Try and leave this world a little better than you found it" - Robert Baden-Powell.
