Hot take: most 'sustainable travel' influencers are selling a vibe

hot take: most "sustainable travel" influencer posts are just marketing. pretty photos, sponsored "eco" stays, links to overpriced gear. looks good, does little.
real sustainable travel is low-effort and kinda boring. stay longer, cook some meals, take buses, mend your gear, buy from local markets. small moves beat a curated photo op.
if you actually care, skip the listicles. ask locals where the money goes. pay the street cook, not the boutique ecolodge that marks up everything 3x. unpopular but honest.
