RESPONSIBLE & SUSTAINABLE TOURISM
From America’s National Parks to Japan, world traveler and travel writer Kristin Henning talks with Big Blend Radio about responsible and sustainable tourism practices.
After a 30-year career in publishing, Kris–along with her husband and business partner Tom Bartel–shed the last publication, the big family house, and most of their possessions. In 2010, they gave their dog to their daughter and set out on a journey to see the world. After a year in South America and a month walking the Camino de Santiago, Kris and Tom decided to combine their separate, casual blogs to create www.TravelPast50.com. The blog combines Kris and Tom’s love of culture and passion for the outdoors. Their travels vary between long stays in such cultural cities as London, Barcelona, Rome, and Beijing, detours to UNESCO World Heritage Sites, and spurts of hiking or biking in Europe, Australia, Asia, or the United States National Parks. Since 2010, they’ve visited over 65 countries on 6 continents.
