OPINIESTUK: KETENTOERISME

Charlotte3 min readAdd comment

Denk eens even na. Ben jij op je laatste reis in een MacDonalds gaan eten? Of dronk je misschien een koffie in een Starbucks? Ik zit in een Starbucks in Sofia terwijl ik dit begin te typen. Het valt niet goed te praten. Sorry.     Dit geen haatcampagne tegen Starbucks of MacDonalds. In feite kan je de merknaam aanpassen naar elke keten die je je kan...

drukste en meest toeristische plek van Kopenhagen heen, al is het toch leuk ook dit even gezien te hebben. De gekleurde huisjes en de mooie schepen zijn het beeld wat je in je hoofd hebt als je naar Kopenhagen komt.

We weten allemaal hoe belangrijk reisjes met onze vriendinnen zijn, kwestie van mentaal relatief normaal te blijven. In dit gekke, snelle leven, garanderen deze trips het broodnodige amusement, diepe gesprekken en geweldige herinneringen. Je kan dan ook niets vergelijken met het ontdekken van een nieuwe stad samen met je vriendinnen. Exact dit hebben mijn vriendinnen...

The highlight of my trips to Africa is always the same: staying with the Maasai people of Kenya (and parts of Tanzania). I’ve always been fascinated by their language, distinct traditions and customs, living arrangements and dress codes… and I learn so much from them each time. They’re people of the soil, people truly at one with nature and, most importantly, people of immense heart. Staying with, and learning from, indigenous locals is absolutely the best way to know a place. But remember, rebels: this is their world, their land. If you can be respectful and reverent in their company, you’ll start to see the world anew. #africa #belgianinafrica #travelrebel #thattravelblog #maasai #local #indigenous #sustainabletravel #green #nature #respect #oneworld #campfire #goat #tanzaniaunforgettable #tanzania
Good news from Tanzania, rebels! Recently, the country’s Supreme Court of Appeal upheld a ruling that bans the marriage of girls as young as 15. This is a landmark ruling, because two out of five girls in this nation are married off before they turn 18. According to the UN, this east African country has one of the highest rates of child marriage in the world. It also has one of the highest rates of adolescent pregnancy. The position of women has been problematic in Tanzania, which is why steps like this ruling are so crucial. Just a few years ago, President John Magufulu said female students who became pregnant shouldn’t be allowed in schools. He also said there is no need for birth control and that those who use contraceptives are “lazy” -- yup, you just can’t make this stuff up! (Oh, and did I mention that the laws he’s implemented have also severely stifled independent media and NGOs?) So let’s have a big hurrah for this step forward. Here’s to more progress, here’s to working for the rights of girls and women! #timesup #tanzania #childmarriage #ban #stepforward #progress #thegoodfight #travelrebel #travelrebelsupports #ethicaltravel #awareness #womenempoweringwomen #girls @lonelyplanetnl @planbelgium @asadventure @unitednations @unicefbelgium @unitednationshumanrights
Amidst all this beauty, it’s hard to tell but Zanzibar/Tanzania actually has a greusome history of slavery, one that has seeped into its present. In the 18th and 19th centuries, it served as a center of the slave trade operations in the region and slavery as an institution persisted here till 1909! But here’s the part that really needs our urgent attention: modern day slavery is still very much a real thing, here and in other parts of the world as well. It takes many forms such as bonded labor, forced labor, child slavery, early and forced marriage, and descent-based slavery. Some of these forms are so cloaked that we may even overlook them as slavery, such as early forced marriages. But think about it: girls often have to enter these relationships without a choice and are then bound to a life of servitude (more often than not accompanied by violence). They have absolutely no way to leave. It’s time we take collective action. What do you think? Is this something you’d like to learn more about?

As you probably know, this month (on Oct 11) we celebrated a day that’s extremely important to me: the International Day of the Girl Child. What was that all about? Well, it’s annual observance day that calls on us to increase awareness of gender inequality faced by girls worldwide based on their gender and support more opportunities available to them. Well, today, I’m thrilled to let you know that I am going to Senegal with Plan International to tell the stories of many of these amazing young and inspirational women!!! You may recall from my travels and conscious emphasis on supporting local, women-owned initiatives and businesses that I am passionate about this cause. Being a woman, albeit a privileged one from the developed world, I understand why empowering girls is the need of the hour. So are you doing your part in reducing gender inequality, increasing access to education, nutrition, legal rights, medical care, and protecting women around the world from discrimination, violence and forced child marriage? Plan your next steps, rebels… and in the meantime, watch out for my updates from Senegal! Photo of last year in Kenya. We (@asadventure & @solid.crafts )were there to help empower women groups and support @hadithi_crafts & @wildlifeworks. #internationaldayofthegirlchild #girlsjustwannahavefundamentalrights #nomorewordsneeded #travelrebelsupports #womenempowerment #womenempoweringwomen #makeadifference #senegal #africa #kenya @planbelgium @planinternational
We can’t change our past and we don’t know our future. All we have is our present. And right here, right now, in this absolutely amazing place, I couldn’t have asked for anything else from life. 🐠 What you can do to protect our coral reefs? Practice safe & responsible diving/snorkeling. Try to avoid touching the reef at all time. Contact with the reef will damage the delicate coral animals, so please do not ever touch our reefs 🧜💙 #Zanzibar #africa #oneworld #onepeople #discover #tanzania #tanzania🇹🇿 #explore #sustainabletourism #sustainabletravel #travelrebel #belgianinafrica #travelblogger #thattravelblog #underwater #magicworld #tanzania #reisblogger #responsiblesnorkeling #responsiblediving #diver #girlswhoscuba #goprohero7 #reizen #marinelife #diver #snorkel #mnemba @the_zanzibari

When we talk about sustainability, we cannot shy away from things that make us uncomfortable -- in fact, as travel bloggers and influencers, we need to have the strength to approach these things head-on to promote discussion or raise awareness. Right? So, with that said, let’s talk. As lovely as Pico has been, there was one side of it that made my stomach churn a little:the whaling industry and background. A visit to the whaling museum and some conversations with the locals almost gave the impression that there’s a certain pride still associated with this practice… and that isn’t something I can stand behind. I’m pro conservation, pro eco diversity, always. And thankfully, I think the tide is turning in Pico, too. #azores #portugal #cantskipportugal #picoisland #whales #protectnature #protectourwhales #marineconservation #marinelife #marinebiology #reisblogger #reizen #raiseawareness #sustainabletravel #sustainability
