    Save the Date: August 9th AIG Travel #WhereNext Twitter Party!

    August 4, 2016 /

      I am super excited to be working with AIG Travel this month and sharing with you all the many benefits of sustainable travel.  Sustainable travel is the socially-responsible way families and solo-travelers are exploring new places.  I wrote a piece about sustainable travel here you can check out but basically sustainable travel is about leaving a positive impact on the communities you visit.  This could be something as simple as eating at local restaurants to support the business owners (think small businesses) as opposed to your favorite fast food joint to purchasing souvenirs that are handmade by locals opposed to trinkets made just for tourists.     Join the…

    Join The Sustainable Travel Movement

    August 2, 2016 /

      What exactly is sustainable travel?  The World Tourism Organization specifies it is the “management of all resources in such a way that economic, social, and aesthetic needs can be fulfilled while maintaining cultural integrity, essential ecological processes, biological diversity, and life support systems.” Sustainable tourism should also maintain a high level of tourist satisfaction and ensure a meaningful experience to the tourists, raising their awareness about sustainability issues and promoting sustainable tourism practices amongst them. (Source: World Tourism Organization).     According to a new poll, most travelers agree that traveling sustainably is important, but many may feel it’s easier said than done.

    Four Fun Places to See African Wildlife Up Close – South Africa

    July 30, 2016 /

    Along the Garden Route that runs along the coast of South Africa, there are many animal parks where visitors have the chance to go on educational tours and get up close to many beautiful African animals. We had a fantastic experience driving along the Garden Route for 2 weeks and stopping at many parks along the way. It was a big check off my bucket-list to finally get up close to cheetahs, lions, monkeys, and so many other wild animals. So here are my favorite 4 parks that we visited! TENIKWA Tenikwa is a rehabilitation center for big cats where you can learn all about the animals and how we…
