Travelling is my passion. I consider myself as a tourist, not a traveller but I'm a tourist who seeks local life and tries to avoid pure tourist destinations. Sometimes I succeed, sometimes not (like in life). Aiming to be a responsible tourist is important to me. I’m always planning for the next trip, the next destination. Therefore you may find me asking travel questions on different Forums. I don’t decide the destination weeks ahead my trips, normally I decide where to go just few days before the departure. I have shared travel tips, which I've found useful on my travel pages. If nothing else, I always put a tip of the hotel I've stayed in. I would be grateful if you would let me know if any of my tips is out of date or if there is a dead link somewhere. Rate only them if you find them useful. This way they will be more helpful for other travellers. Thanks ;-) |

Life... - Never refuse an invitation
- never Resist the unfamiliar
- never Fail to be polite
- never Outstay your welcome
Keep your mind Open and Suck in the Experience and if it hurts, you know what... it's probably worth it!
- have hopes
- have dreams
- have goals in your life
Stop searching for a Paradise as it is not some place you go to. Paradise is how you feel for a moment in your life!
Mostly from "Beached" lyrics, can't put it better myself (hurts to admit it, lol)
Remember, you will get what you will give. Therefore always treat other people as you would like to be treated yourself...simple. Yes, I believe on Karma on some level ;-)

Sustainable tourism, responsible Traveller? Where do you stand in terms of Travelling?Have you thought about sustainable tourism? I have... Yup, I've learned that by making choices we can make a difference. I learned that by using local services; guides, restaurants, hotels (instead of the intl' hotel chains) and by buying local products; which are not made out of exploiding nature (coral, animal products etc) we can make a difference. I learned that I can influence on environment (people, culture and nature) with choices I make. The choices we make influences on the well being of the travel destination, they can influence on the amount of water usage of a village, the amount of pollution can be influenced with our actions and choices... Just think about it... I wish you safe Travels! |

Sorry you didn't make the short list. Thought yours was the most professional and inventive. Many were just annoying! Happy travels! | happyhormones Wed Mar 4, 2009 16:55 UTC
Hi! Did you come over from bootsnall? What a coincidence. I remember watching your video, and I think I got the link from there. Good luck to you for the contest! |
