Sustainable Travel on a Budget

Discount airfares and the monolithic cruise industry have given tourism a bad name. Carbon emissions have gone through the stratosphere and overtourism is rife. However, you can still travel the world and leave a much smaller footprint. With a focus on Europe, Tokyo, Seoul and the US, you’ll find out lots of great travel ideas to make your next overseas trip an adventure with a difference. It’s all about how you travel, where you stay and the itinerary you create. From little Africa in Paris, to an art village in Seoul and the Museum of Sex in New York there’s something for everyone.
