Even though World Environment Day was Friday, were continuing the celebration throughout the weekend with more tips on how to make your next trip a greener one.
3: Choose sustainable products and services whenever possible
When looking for souvenirs or produce, sniff out farmers markets and local arts and crafts fairs. The essential to budget travel is to plan onward. When it comes along to family trips, globetrotting, well-deserved holidays and/or going to see new destinations we have never been before, the truth of expense and budgeting is always in the back of our mind. Arranging and spending our travel budget correctly is a consideration for most families. Lowering consuming and expenses, while still enjoying your vacation to its fullest, is the key to confirmed success and fiscal responsibility. Your pocketbook and family will thank you! The thought regarding protecting money while traveling is simple: Even if your personal funds is incredibly limited, you can still take a break and enjoy life! Simply put, life is just too short to never step out of the door or leaving the homestead! Also recalling that while traveling, whether on a resources or not, even the smallest of things can all add op to a huge vacation or travel bill!. Youll be able to buy directly from the artist or farmer and be able to ask them questions about the item. Whats your farm like? What else do you grow? How long did it take you to make these earrings? And yes, many times when traveling abroad, haggling is the name of the game. But just remember: no matter how tight your budget, the budget of that artist or farmer in that haggle friendly country is probably much, much tighter.
Find sustainable restaurants throughout the U.S. and Canada through the Eat Well Guide. Youll find farms, markets and restaurants by entering a keyword or even your zip code. A search for Chicago restaurants turned up hotspots like Lula Caf, Uncommon Ground and Naha.
If you really, really wanna get in at the grassroots level, bookmark the WWOOF website World Wide Opportunities on Organic Farms. Even if you dont have the time to volunteer, youll can at least patronize these farms while traveling.
