Before any trip, most of us will ask ourselves the same question: what am I going to pack? Advertising, social media, and travel content all push the idea travel is another reason to buy more.

Lily Fang joins the show to unpack the intersection of tourism and fashion, and how can we approach consumption more thoughtfully when we travel.

Lily Fang is the creator of Imperfect Idealist, a blog focused on sustainable fashion, mindful living, and ethical consumption. Through practical guides and research-based writing, she helps readers better understand the environmental and social impacts of the clothing industry and make more informed choices.
