Wow, just discovered Tripatini a couple of days ago, very glad to see this group. Needs more love though, only 27 members?! This should be integrated as major component to any social media network for travel... not just a small ad in
Hello everybody, we're honoured to join this group, and we hope to be able to work with you in making Responsible Travel more and more a reality.
We agree with the points you all made there regarding the definition of Responsible Travel. Like Thommen, we believe that the sustainable transformation it brings should be able to reach different aspects of the community, from the economy, culture and traditions, and environment, as well as politics, education, and others.
