Plan & Prepare
Before you even pack your bags, think about your choices. Opt for direct flights to lessen emissions, and consider train travel within India for shorter
distances. Research destinations known for their sustainability efforts, just like how we plan for a pilgrimage to Haridwar.
Pack Smartly
Think lightweight! Choose reusable water bottles, shopping bags, and travel-sized toiletries. Pack eco-friendly sunscreen, and ditch single-use plastics. Remember, being prepared is key, much like packing essentials for a trek to Leh-Ladakh.
Choose Transport Wisely
Consider public transport or cycling once you reach your destination. Support local transport providers like auto-rickshaws. Even better, enjoy a serene boat ride in Kerala. Support communities, much like how we support our local artisans in Rajasthan.
Accommodation Matters
Look for eco-certified hotels or guesthouses. Consider homestays and support local families and businesses. Embrace a more local experience, much like staying at a traditional haveli in Jaipur. This is the authentic experience!
Mindful Consumption
Embrace local cuisines and support local eateries, avoid chain restaurants. Reduce food waste and opt for vegetarian or vegan meals. Respect the local culture and traditions, from a quiet evening at the Ghats to the festivities of Durga Puja!
