Community for those focused on sustainable travel. Our society's current levels of energy intensive and frequent travel are not compatible with life on a finite planet. We advocate for long-term slow travel to see the world, and low energy local travel to deeply experience your community. Green washing free zone.

!traveltips@feddit.uk ← Europe focus

The communities listed above are decentralized. Centralized instances are omitted as they go against the fedi purpose and it’s better to cultivate digital rights in the free world. That means instances that have a disproportionately large population or are centralized on Cloudflare are not listed.

Damn if this had existed when I lived in LA, I could've walked from my apartment to the red line and made it all the way to Vegas with zero traffic and no concerns of trying to drive home on Sunday with the dreaded I stayed up until four o'clock hangover.
