Hello from Seaside, Oregon. This weekend it’s Seaside’s turn to host Soccer in the Sand a National youth tournament that moves from city to city this time of year. #pttravel

A1 I don’t think that our travels are particularly sustainable. We will do our best where we can, such as choosing to walk wherever possible, but that’s only a small concession given our love for short city breaks. #PTTravel

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie #pttravel A1: no. I oft visit places with, for example, non-potable water supplies. So as I keep losing my filter bottles, the only option is to do what the locals do and drink water from plastic bottles or sachets, for instance.

A1 #pttravel I really try! Four separate refuse bins at home; try to take reuseable stuff with me & try to avoid the non-bio degradeable, one-use stuff, but don't always succeed.

A1 Having humble needs, sustaining is fairly easy at home or away. Less concerns frees time to do more of what you want to do. #PTtravel

A1 #pttravel I’ll answer in 2 parts. First, my home its gas heat, but this house takes in a lot of heat from the sun even in the winter & it hold the heat. I think that’s a benefit of it being only a couple of years old. It’s well insulated, so it tends to be more efficient.

replying to @Txiki_Tales @Txiki_Tales I'm even worse with my work being long haul a few times per year. I try to make sure I do other things to be as sustainable as possible. Its not easy balancing it & wanting to explore #PTTravel

A1 #pttravel Transportation, I have a hybrid plug in car & I know some don’t think that’s green at all, but I think it’s more green than putting the biggest SUV on the road. This weekend, I’m just walking. It’s good for the earth & me & it doesn’t cost anything.

A1 I think I'm quite sustainable at home, even not eating meat now but I do usually travel several times per year. That's the hard part. I try to take reusable bottle/cup with me & do trains or buses in country. It isn't easy

A1: At home we try to be as sustainable as possible with just little changes. Metal straws, less plastic etc. Though I can definitely be more sustainable when travelling. I unfortunately usually opting to fly/drive to places due to time constraints with work etc.

replying to @kate_frankie @kate_frankie A1. I’d say I’m fairly sustainable. I don’t have a car and walk where possible, I volunteer at my local nature reserve and travel economy. I could use a lot less plastic, though. #PTTravel
