# 34: Welcome back to Manifest Travel, the podcast where intentional travel meets personal growth. Today’s episode is all about something that’s top of mind for so many of us: traveling responsibly.

Joining me is expert Travel Consultant, Samantha Green, who’s here to share her deep insights into sustainable travel—what it really means beyond the buzzwords, and how we, as travelers, can approach each destination in a way that truly respects the people, culture, and environment.

We unpack the nuances of ethical tourism, including avoiding greenwashing traps—especially when it comes to experiences involving animals—and how a trusted travel advisor can guide you toward meaningful, genuine adventures while avoiding common pitfalls like over-tourism.

Plus, Samantha shares why working with a travel consultant isn’t just about convenience—it’s about access to local gems, personalized planning, and, let’s be real, having someone in your corner when hiccups arise.
