replying to @jasontravelblog @jasontravelblog Same here but I'm going to try and do a walk each day and maybe head to the coast at the weekend or on a day off #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie Evenin' all. Had a surprisingly dry wander around a very quiet York today and looking forward to a post #pttravel pamper courtesy of Mrs L - never got round to it on Fathers' Day!

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie #pttravel Fine ... much heartened by the visit this afternoon. Highlights of next week: Visit to the pharmacy, and on Friday, going (by invitation!) to a museum, to check if their social distancing measures work.

replying to @Txiki_Tales @Txiki_Tales Nice! I have a mask that I haven't used yet too #PTTravel
kate_frankie
replying to @NomadKeith @NomadKeith Very good stuff! Nice to hear about your family visit. Pleased that museums are staying to gear up to open too #PTTravel

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

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie Good evening! More of the same this week, I think. Local walks and socially distanced meet-ups. Looking forward to the Scottish 5-mile limit lifting next weekend. #PTTravel

Q1 What would you say is responsible or sustainable travel? https://t.co/f3JS4KiPav

replying to @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot We've had a longer walk today and I'm going to try and get out each day #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 I can recommend 4.30am. It's not as hot. #pttravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A1 Like they say take only photos, leave only footprints. Caring for the environment and heritage sites we visit. #pttravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A1) Having the environment at the forefront of your trip e.g visiting eco-friendly countries/resorts, travelling sustainably e.g walking, cycling #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
Travel_Session
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 @findinganeish @findinganeish Even though we've been able to travel further here, I haven't been far. That will change when I take some annual leave. I'll have some day trips to the coast and countryside in North East England #PTTravel

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

replying to @Txiki_Tales @Txiki_Tales #pttravel I do try to use public transport, if I can, and use the car only when necessary. I think I'm succeeding. I've had the car 6 years, and there's only just over 20,000 miles on the clock.
RTWBarefoot
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie @findinganeish The furthest I've been from 'home' since March 19th has been at the furthest point of one of my circular early morning runs, so maybe about 2 or 3 miles. #pttravel

replying to @findinganeish @findinganeish @kate_frankie I really like that - moderating your impact. That's a great and achievable philosophy to travel with ;-) #pttravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie I'm going to bed at the moment around 6-7am. So for me it's more of an end-of-day activity :p #pttravel
findinganeish
replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie Yeah, I’m off from Wednesday and looking to make day-trips to Aberdeen and Anstruther. 66 miles! Imagine! #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

replying to @Txiki_Tales @Txiki_Tales @kate_frankie Thanks. You have to be realistic. #PTTravel

replying to @findinganeish @findinganeish @kate_frankie One of the things I'm intending to do when it's both feasible and allowable is do some remote hiking in the Scottish Lowlands - the Southern Uplands Way has my name on it! #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 @RTWBarefoot @RTWBarefoot @kate_frankie @findinganeish #pttravel I did 10 miles a couple of weeks ago ... took the car in for an MoT and service!
