replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O To us, it means respecting the local rules. A few days ago, a tourist lit a cigarette in one of the islands of Indonesia when cigarettes were banned there and there was a forest fire. I think it was Komodo Island. #CultureTrav

A1 Postive impact travel to me means not having a negative impact on the place you're visiting. I think if you start there, you're doing okay. #culturetrav

A2: Green travel strategies: pack light (less weight = lower carbon emissions), go car free (public transit over taxis or car services), pack reusable bags, support green business, don't waste resources, pick up trash, go off season, avoid tourist traps, shop local. #CultureTrav

A1. Hi everyone, I'm joining from San Diego. Positive impact travel means we honor a destination, leaving it better than it was but also sharing the magic of that destination with others. As a travel writer, I can do that #culturetrav
