Radical idea - a reusable bottle for liquids

Fodor’s has just published an online article titled “Eco-tourism on a Budget: 6 Simple Eco-conscious Tips for Saving Money.”  Thinking that sounded right down my aisle, I started reading. 

“Wow,” my inner monologue snarked, “these tips sure sound like recent blog posts of mine, don’t they?”

Not to toot my own horn or anything (toot, toot) but here’s a comparison:

Fodor Tip 1: Stray from the beaten path
Me: Duh, my whole site.

Fodor Tip 2: Quench your thirst responsibly
Me: Lame tip, therefore no comparison.

Fodor Tip 3: Eat like a local
Me:  Eating Local in DC  and Eating Locally While Traveling (a Mindful Tourist guest blog on Lost Girls) 

Fodor Tip 4: Stay green in alternative lodging
Me:  Mindful Tourist’s Favorite B&Bs, Mindful Tourist’s B&B Wishlist, 3 Ways to Get the Most out of TripAdvisor, and Your Answer to Finding Sustainable Tourism Around the Globe

Fodor Tip 5: Move forward with earth-friendly transportation
Me: Eco-Friendly Transportation in Santiago, Chile

Fodor Tip 6: Think through your souvenir purchases
Me: Moving Past Trinkets: Socially Conscious Souvenirs and A Tourist’s Role in Archaeological Ethics

Fodor’s – the check’s in the mail, right?  Thanks.
