Especially the turning off lights part of this resonates. No idea why people leave the lights on (and water running) when completely unnecessary! #CultureTrav https://t.co/KLCzdK2GPc

A3 I had to work to convince my mom to travel to Malaysia. She was worried because it's a majority Muslim country. It's one her favorite trips because of how wonderful the people were (plus, all the art and food). #culturetrav https://t.co/UkS7Yhau9t

A5: Travelers drinking from single-use water bottles. We must kick this bad habit, & it's so easy to do. We haven't had a SINGLE bottle of water in 6.5 years! Get yourself a @SteriPEN UV water purifier + a @Nalgene and keep plastic bottles out of landfills & oceans. #CultureTrav

replying to @Nicolette_O @Nicolette_O Totally agree with this! There's no excuse ever for littering, and more recycling efforts need to be undertaken worldwide. Even in the U.S. Only 8 or 9% of all plastics in America are recycled (per National Geographic). Sad! #CultureTrav

@Nicolette_O A3 Instead of judgment, offer assistance if you can think of ways to help. Visiting a country where the graveyard was unmaintained, I suggested an afterschool program
to help impact positive change.
