Evolving tourism

A little while ago, I met a lady named Kayti who I later found out is the ex-wife of a friend of mine. I’ve mentioned this here before. Anyway, Kayti is a teacher and writer. She introduced me to a website called Gaia Discovery, which I have since contributed a couple of articles to.

Gaia Discovery is a website that covers issues related to eco-living and sustainable tourism. There are a lot of projects in Thailand and Southeast Asia that fall under this bracket. I’m interested in responsible tourism because it’s something that is catching on all over the world. It could be the future of tourism – and if it isn’t then it should be. This whole notion of tourists with a conscience is intriguing.

Gaia has stories of travel from around the world with a focus on places and culture you might not normally pick for a holiday. The website is worth checking out if you have a few moments.
