A1 #PTTravel Someone else said this ... but I'd say 'Leave nothing but footprints and a good impression'

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A1: I think it's about not leaving a negative impact on the place you visit. Enjoy your stay but be respectful of the destination #PTTravel

A1 I don't think I'm qualified to answer as I drive too much, take too many short flights and occasionally eat/drink at international chains...but...I do try to walk wherever I can, especially when travelling and I do prefer to spend my money in 'neighbourhood' outlets #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A1: So many layers to this - environmental to cultural e.g. not exploiting the local community, paying them fairly, etc. Also responsible travel in terms of how you act in one’s country that will cause damage. That’s my very short answer as there is a lot to it #pttravel

A1- Responsible travel at a minimum is not being overly wasteful just because you're away from home. Treat every place like you would your home and leave it the way you found it

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie #pttravel A1: I can only speak for 'responsible' travel, since one may argue that life as a whole is 'unsustainable' until 100% of what we do is renewable.

But 'responsible' for me also means culturally responsible - don't just wander into a place as if you own it. Have respect.

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A1. Responsible travel, to me, is all about moderating your impact - whether that’s trying to reduce your carbon footprint or taking measures to protecting yourself and others from coronavirus. #PTTravel

A1: I think this is very difficult as by the very act of travelling you're increasing your carbon footprint....however, you can make as many inroads into being as sustainable as you possibly can - using public transport, taking your own refillable mini toiletries etc #pttravel

A1 I think respect comes into a lot of it for me. Don't wreck the places you go to! It's someone else's home. Take photos (where its allowed) and leave only footprints. I also really try to use less single use plastics

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie #pttravel A2: controversial but ... and related to 'respect' in A1, and something I suspect The Virus may well cut down on in the long term:

Going abroad purely to get drunk and mix with people 'just like you'; treating a foreign town like your own town.
