Sustainable Active Projects
About Responsible Tourism
| We should start to worry about how we're going to deal with ever growing number of tourists. |
| Sustainable and responsible travel should always be kept in mind. |
| We start to understand that we are all part of this world only through traveling, through meeting people. |
| Responsible travel means real and concrete action in order to make the impact on the environment, |
| local cultures, economies, peace and poverty as positive as possible. |
| We do hope we may help you in finding a new way of traveling in Cambodia. |
| You can reduce your impact and increase your interaction with people and environment. |
| You may really contribute in a very positive way and still have a very fulfilling traveling experience. |
| Respect the locals, do what locals do and try to see things from their point of view. |
| Asian cultures have different ideas of time, space and socially acceptable behaviors. |
| Never show your emotions in public, as this is considered extremely rude, it will offend people. |
| Dress appropriately. Look at the locals as the best way to understand what to wear. |
| Don't show naked parts of the body around, it is simply a matter of respect and cleanness. |
| Buy locally made crafts so that what you spend goes directly to the community. |
| Buy from local markets and roadside vendors. This helps local people to maintain their jobs and |
| allows what you spend to go directly to the local community. |
| Learn the art of bargaining as a true way of living for the locals, it is not a matter of saving, |
| it is a matter of behaving properly. |
| Do not encourage begging as what you give as a gift, rarely is beneficial. |
| Find a mission, try to talk with the ones responsible for the projects, donate wisely. |
| We all have the same needs, pains, joys, desires. |
| We all come from the same Source of Life. |
