Buy Less Choose Well. How many times have you brought a souvenir home from holiday and unpacked it only to wonder why on earth you bought it? Whether you are on an epic backpacking tour or a family package holiday, it can be tempting to buy all everything in sight. Often the majority of the souvenirs on sale are not made in the place they are sold. Cheap useless objects are shipped in just to provide tourists with something to buy – only for it to be discarded as soon as they get home. Memories are probably the best thing you can take home from an amazing trip. If you still want something extra, try some of these ideas!
I hope these are some helpful tips for shopping for ethical holiday souvenirs while on holiday. The main point is if you want to shop sustainably – take a minute to decide if you really love something before you buy. If you have any more tips, share them below!
