Most of us travel to explore new locations, see different cultures, taste different foods… that’s great but not enough. Hence, what is the difference between a traveller and a tourist?
We need to be seasoned travellers and not mere tourists. So, how is this accomplished?
Experiences and Lessons
Going on a trip for two weeks in an exotic country is a great thing to do. However, the best option is to immense ourselves with the hosting nation. This is the rule of thumb for being a traveller not a tourist. As a result, we get to travel globally while having local experiences. Consequently, can you imagine the amount of adventure and fun this would entail?
Being travellers and not tourists, will help us become part of the new place. Therefore, instead of having a mere touristy observation, we will earn a lifelong journey. This path will be paved with experiences from this country. Moreover, this will equip us with a set of skills that are highly transferable during our travels.
Ecotourism
This is one aspect of tourism, which stresses the appreciation of visiting a new nation.
Not simply be a part of the mass tourism, as the latter causes more harm than good.
Respect
Ecotourism is about respecting the culture, history, traditions and lifestyles of the hosting country.
Regardless of background differences between the tourists and their destinations.
Perspective
Ecotourism is an eye opener for new ways of living the same life but with different perspective.
As they say: “Wherever we go becomes part of who we are”.
Ecotours are a joy!
The best way to experience a wide collection of countries without harming the local traditions and the environment is through ecotourism. Additionally this will answer the quest of being a traveller and not only a tourist.
Follow the rhythms of nature aromas and choose the most enticing trips to satisfy your travel hunger.
