I don’t know if it was my move towards a more minimal life, my increased interest in being an eco-warrior or just a part of growing up, but over the last few years I’ve been looking at all the junk I buy and really questioning my sanity. I’ve streamlined my purchases and cut a lot of unnecessary items out of my life and I feel a lot better for it. Here’s a list of 10 of the things I no longer buy.

I’m a firm believer that every penny you spend is a vote. Cruelty free over tested on animals, vegan over beef, tequila over gin…every time you purchase something, you’re telling the bigwigs sat around a giant table somewhere in New York that product A is worth investing in more than product B. Recently there’s been a sudden explosion of ethical brands and products onto the marketplace and I’m more than ready to put my money behind them to send the message that we want more!

Visiting Elephant Nature Park in Chiang Mai was top of my travel bucket list (and, let’s be honest, life bucket list) from the moment I heard about it. Just the thought of coming face to face with the rescued elephants as they went about their daily elephant lives, unchained, unhindered and happily plodding along with their elephant business was wonderful to me. Little did I know that actually getting to live out that dream by spending not one, but two magical days at the elephant sanctuary last month would be even more incredible than I ever could have imagined.

I’ve made a lot of travel blunders over the years, ranging from first-time foolishness to the downright dangerous. I got myself locked in a wine cellar in Venice, picked up pneumonia in South Africa and almost died on a boat trip in Sri Lanka. But, while I’ve had my fair share of transcontinental brushes with death, my biggest travel regret is buying into animal tourism without even realising what kind of harm I was inflicting.
