Top 5 Eco Friendly things to bring traveling
A lot of people find it hard to travel without buying things, having more plastic waste, and feeling not connected to their daily ways of "leave no trace". It is hard when you are constantly moving and especially in countries that do not focus on environmentalism. It is up to us as individuals to do our best when we travel to honor mother earth first and foremost as the planet is home to all of us. There are easy ways to do this. Here are a few that you may forget about or not even know. I am sure you know about the bamboo/metal straw, bamboo toothbrushes, and some of the simple water bottles.

Remember…
DO YOUR RESEARCH
Charging into unknown territory without a sound plan or even so much as a whisper of what’s to be expected can not only leave you frustrated and untouched but perhaps even worse, in a load of trouble. People from different nationalities, no matter how close or how far, take offense differently, and you can never be too careful in trying to be respectful in your conducts .
THE FIRST QUESTION YOU COULD ASK IS NOT DIRECTED TOWARDS ANOTHER, BUT INWARDS. WHAT ARE THE BASICS OF THIS PARTICULAR CULTURE DO I SERVE TO UNDERSTAND BETTER TO BE ABLE TO EMBRACE THE NEXT STEP IN MY JOURNEY?
THE FIRST STEP IS THOROUGH RESEARCH.
Luckily, there are plenty of contemporary methods you can use to your advantage to learn about different cultures. Concretely, the internet is your best source of information. Not only can you read up about the culture that interests you in online archives, but you can also go a step further and follow social media networks and Facebook groups from that region. Be sure to also join forums and discussions where you can ask the most burning questions, while also gathering visual information from YouTube videos.
One of the largest limiting belief of travel is almost always shelled in a single notion: money. To travel, you need money, and usually, plenty of it. Fortunately for you, a digital nomad living in the 21 st century, there are numerous budget and low-cost ways to travel the world, from a student discount to a flexible after pay holiday or special last-minute or first-minute deals, and all sorts of travel-hacking knowledge out there. This is the best time to travel the world easily, quickly and comfortably, so make sure to plan your trip well in advance.
