Another current part 2 topic with example answer.
As I commute into the city for work every day, I always do my best to avoid the rush hour traffic, which is not always easy. I usually get up at 6 am and catch the bus at 6.30 to beat the heavy traffic, and go for a relaxing coffee before starting work. 

 However, about 2 weeks ago, I slept in on a monday morning and didn’t wake up until 8am,missing the early bus, and not catching the next one until 8.30, which i knew would mean being late for work due to the traffic.

Normally the bus ride into the city centre takes about 45 minutes, but because of taking the bus during the peak rush hour it now took almost 2 hours. The traffic was unbelievable, and cars were bumper to bumper, moving at a snail’s pace, for the entire journey.

What made it even worse was that the bus was full, and passengers were packed like sardines , which also meant I had to stand for the full journey. To try and pass the time, I just read the  news using my mobile phone, as well as messaging my boss to let him know I would be late for work due to the heavy traffic.

I’m not the  most patient person and being stuck in a traffic jam like this is something I really hate, and always something I try to avoid. I also take pride in always being on time for work, and felt absolutely terrible  to be over an hour late on this day. I now set 2 alarms every night to make sure that this doesn’t happen again.

Estamos en verano, una época donde muchas personas viajamos. Por esa razón creo que es un buen tiempo para hablar de turismo sostenible, qué es y que podemos hacer como turistas para ayudar a que el entorno sufra lo menos posible con nuestros viajes. Y no solo que está en nuestras manos, también te cuento que están haciendo las empresas del sector para adaptarse a este tipo de turismo.

Espero que disfrutes del episodio. Si te gusta, no te olvides de dejarle una valoración. 

Y después de escucharlo, ya sabes que te espero en mi Instagram, visítame y dime:

¿Qué opinas tú? ¿Piensas que un turismo sostenible es posible? ¿Consideras que los negocios hacen todo lo que pueden para ayudar a conseguirlo? ¿Y cómo eres tú como turista? ¿Estarías dispuesto a pagar un poco más si sabes que va a ayudar al entorno?
