A some thoughts for the responsible travellers
Read up on the countries you plan to visit The welcome will be warmer if you take an interest and speak even a few words of the local language.
Think small when booking a holiday for example bed and breakfasts, village houses and locally owned accommodation benefit local families. Help the local economy of developing countries by buying local produce in preference to imported goods.
If bargaining to buy an item, bear in mind that a small amount to you could be extemely important to the seller.
Realize that often the people in the country you are visiting have different time concepts and thought patterns from your own, this does not make them inferior, only different.
Instead of the western practice of knowing all the answers, cultivate the habit of asking questions and discover the enrichment of seeing a different way of life through others eyes.Remember that man travels the world in search of what he needs and returns home to find it.
Use water sparingly it is precious in many countries and the local people may not have sufficient clean water.
Find out where the locals go when they have time off. Visit the main sites but get off the tourist trail too.
Don't discard litter, take it home with you. Waste disposal is a major expense in country like Nepal.
Respect for local cultures, traditions and holy places earns you respect. For example, ask permission before you photograph local people in some countries it can cause offence.
Spend time reflecting on your daily experience in an attempt to deepen your understanding. It has been said that what enriches you may rob and violate others.
Do not buy products made from endangered species, hard woods, shells from beach traders, or ancient artefacts (which have probably been stolen).
Pack small gifts from home as gifts for your hosts - ask your tour operator to ask the local community what would be of most use to them If you really want your experience to be a 'home away from home' it is foolish to waste money on traveling.
