Calling all nomads to take the #plasticfreenomad challenge
The time for awareness-raising is over, it’s time for action!
But how to tackle the plastic challenge as a traveller, sailor, vagabond, living a nomadic life where the only constant is there is no constant? Where travelling with glass jars and buying in bulk are not really options?
Here I’ll share plastic-free nomad hacks from my +10 years of nomad life lessons, explorations and investigations that can help you tackle plastic in your nomad live and beyond!
Step by step we will climb a (plastic-free) mountain – and sail a plastic-free ocean!
The whole plastic challenge can be overwhelming. Key focus is: simplify! It doesn’t have to be hard. It’s doesn’t have to be perfect. To make substantial changes it can be simple, sweet and sustainable. None of it is rocket science. It’s often simply a change in thinking, preparation and anticipation. Be prepared for the unexpected!
