The future of travel has changed, and many people have invested in Caravans, Motorhomes, Campervans or RV’s so their wanderlust thirst is quenched in a fun and safe way.

However, buying a caravan can be expensive, even if it is a worthy investment for travel lovers. To protect your investment, you should consider buying a caravan cover. Just as you would buy a cover to protect a car when stored away for a few months, getting a caravan or RV cover is vital to protect the vehicle when not in use. A good quality cover keeps away tree sap, dirt, mould, bird poop, and also safeguards the caravan from changing weather. 

My friend Kate Hammaman purchased a Mercedes Sprinter campervan in September 2020 and has loved discovering parts of the UK that she hadn’t seen before. Her website provides honest, tried and tested advice, but also helps educate first time caravan/motorhome/RV/campervan owners.

Following the COVID-19 outbreak, travelling outside of your home country may make you a little more nervous for various reasons. However, this doesn’t mean all your plans to explore and discover new places have to be placed on hold, it simply means you need to be a little more imaginative. Exploring places nearer to home for a staycation is an excellent way of discovering new places on your door step whilst keeping yourself safe, and boosting your country’s economy.

One of the most enjoyable staycations, especially if you have children, is to go camping. This will give you freedom and independence with regard to what you can do, where to go and what you can see. 

The best camping trips do require some preparation in order for you to make the most out of your adventure.

Do you want to reduce your single use plastic but don’t know where to start? Have you become more aware how much plastic waste is around?  If you need tips for living with less plastic, I’m here to tell you that it’s a lot easier than you think – honestly!

If you are having these thoughts, you have made the first step – you are aware that something needs to be done. 

Recycling plastic is fantastic, but we are producing and using more than our planet can handle. The way forward is to use less plastic in our life, and stop being a single use plastic society.

I'm sure you already know about the Great Garbage Patch, but here are a few more frightening facts for you that are closer to home:
  • December 2018, a global study revealed that 100% of sea turtles tested were found with plastics in their stomach.
  • November 2018, a dead sperm whale washed onto a beach in Indonesia filled with 1,000 pieces of plastic in its gut.
  • October 2018 - a study on human stools found nine different types of plastic in every sample tested. Studies are now being done to find out the impact this has on human health. You read that correctly – humans are eating plastic.

Scary isn’t it - but it’s not too late. Large companies all around the world are taking steps to reduce their single use plastic so you are not alone, and if we all do our bit, we can #beatplasticpollution.

If you don’t know where to start, we will break it down for you. Our aim is give simple ideas for you to switch every day products that will be the most effective. These suggestions are very important for when you travel, because not all overseas countries have effective recycling/waste management systems.

Palm Oil Free and Sustainable Palm Oil Products - For Men, Women & Travel

Palm Oil Free Products for men, women and travel, Sustainable Palm Oil Products, Reduce your Palm Oil Usage, Feet Do Travel
Palm Oil is the new bad-buzz word right now, and rightfully so. You may have seen the various campaigns about how we are killing Orangutans at an alarming rate.

Palm Oil is the new plastic. It’s a secret killer.

The Palm oil industry is contributing to the extinction of the Sumatran Tiger, Sumatran Rhino and Sumatran Elephant who are all in critical danger. If we don’t act now, these beautiful creatures could be extinct because of us.

Deforestation of Borneo’s rainforests is also escalating climate change. As humans we need trees for a healthy planet.

Palm Oil is in 50% of the products on our supermarket shelves, and in 50% of the green biodiesel in our cars. Not so “green” after all. In some parts of the world, there are no alternatives to buying products that contain palm oil. Palm oil is the most widely used vegetable oil in the world.

Yes the orang-utans are losing their habitat and have been annihilated, but it doesn’t have to be that way. It’s not palm oil that is killing the Orangutans, it’s the unsustainable methods used.  

So what can we do about it? Why don’t we stop using palm oil completely? Are there sustainable methods? The keywords to remember here are sustainable palm oil, simply boycotting or cutting out palm oil completely causes other issues.

If you care about the Orangutans, if you want to be someone who makes a difference, we explain the various ways in which you can. Feet Do Travel show you palm oil free and sustainable palm oil products for men, women and for when you travel.
