Ecotourism

I have an addiction, I love to travel. It's an expensive addiction and one that can't be fulfilled every time I crave it, in the mean time I research and plan my future trips that I will one day like to go on. Being concerned with our environmental impact and also wanting to travel to mostly every part of the world, I fell in love with what is called ecotourism.

Ecotourism combines my two passions, travelling and my love for nature. Ecotourism is defined as "responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment and improves the well-being of local people"



As the concept of ecotourism becomes more popular the number of ecoDestinations increase, you are now able to travel to every continent and take part in ecotourism!

So why not go to Costa Rica and experience horse back riding while enjoying the wonderful beaches or go to India and travel from Delhi to Mumbai and ride on a few camels, the possibilities are endless!


Next time you're planning your vacation, think of the impact you have on the places you will be visiting and consider ecotourism.
