Eco-traveling
Ecotourism (or responsible tourism) is finally on the rise. With celebrity endorsers like Leonardo DiCaprio and Al Gore it was just a matter of time before it was bound to happen. But what is it you ask? Traveling to natural areas while not only conserving the environment you are touring but also improving it. Simply put, your love for traveling doesn’t have to stop and it also doesn’t have to increase your carbon footprints on the earth. It can help heal the planet.

Boston
Ask me what my most favourite cities are and I guarantee Boston will always appear on my top ten list. It’s a city I came to know well as a student, and years later I have fallen for Beantown all over again. I recently spent 72 hours exploring every angle of the city and offer you some of my fabulous Flare findings.
Enjoy!
