Ethical Traveler
It is not down in any map; true places never are. - Herman Melville Too often, travel consists of running around with your head in a guide book. But focusing on the list of things to see keeps us from getting to know the people and culture of the places where we spend our precious few vacation days—and the richest experiences in other lands often begin with a surprisingly simple gesture. This site aims to bring together informed travelers as "freelance ambassadors" to serve the world community. Stops on the itinerary: - Learn about the places you visit and your impact on the society and environment.
- Get involved and help address time-sensitive issues.
- Step beyond the map and immerse yourself in a culture by following the guidelines for ethical travel.
Global voyagers acting together can make the world a better place. It's a small world, after all.
