Thank you for your reply – I’ll take a look on Etsy!

Hi Cathy – thanks for your message. I haven’t personally used any ethic chopstick brands before, but I had a quick Google and it appears there are some online and selling through Etsy.

Thank you for your inspiring blog – I have discovered it today!

I am looking for a supplier of ethically produced reusable chopsticks, that can be provided to travellers on backpacking tours and school trips in Asia. Have you ever come across any options?

Any suggestions would be highly appreciated!

Thanks again,

Cathy

My pleasure, glad it was helpful Alice :)

Thanks so much for your kind words, Martha! It’s really difficult to stop over-packing I think because there’s always that fear of not having something you ‘need’. Still now I sometimes find myself with something in my rucksack at the end of a holiday or trip that I didn’t use/wear once! The more you do it, the better you get at packing light. I’m also a coffee lover but often hope our Airbnbs will have coffee pots (or ask ahead!) Actually though, it would be more efficient for us to pack our AeroPress for coffee!

Those sound like a great idea, Luna. My DSLR definitely takes up more room than I’d like but still fits. I’ll have to try out a G7x some time!

I try to pack some small cameras instead of DSLR to reduce weight on my luggage. I prefer to use the Gopro or compact cameras like G7x, they also helps me to make travel videos.

Safe travel!
