Mindful Travel Research Project

Kia ora

Ever noticed how your good habits change when you travel? At home you might recycle regularly, choose local businesses, and research everything carefully. But on holiday? Sometimes those intentions slip away in the excitement of exploring somewhere new.

You're not alone. Most of us want our travels to have a positive impact, but it's not always easy to know how - or to maintain our values when we're in "holiday mode."

I'm Pauline, a Master's student researching how to make sustainable travel choices easier and more rewarding. Your insights will help create tools that work with real travel behaviour, not against it.
