Juliet Kinsman emphasizes the positive impact of travel decisions in her Earth Day message, focusing on voluntourism and transformative trips. She discusses the experiences that come with meaningful travel, noting that these trips offer personal growth and an opportunity to support local communities. Through examples from her own travels, Kinsman illustrates how engaging with grassroots NGOs can broaden one's perspective and foster real connections, leading to more rewarding travel memories. She advocates for choosing accommodation providers that contribute positively to their communities, reinforcing that travel can benefit both the traveler and the world.
This year's Earth Day comes with the catchphrase Our Power, Our Planet. Which would look great on a T-shirt that funds a good cause, right?
Voluntourism done right should mean helping to make the world a better place while connecting on the deepest level.
