From TipThePlanet
- Travel can bring many benefits to the traveller and the countries visited. Travellers can learn about different cultures whilst contributing to the local economies.
- Sometimes though the impact can be negative –local people may be exploited and their environment damaged. This is why exploring as a responsible traveller is as important as enjoying the holiday.
- Try to travel for relaxation, fulfilment, discovery, adventure and to learn – rather than simply to tick off 'places and things'.
