One easy way to travel greener? Pack smarter! A few reusable items can help you cut down on single use plastic and keep your trip low waste.
Here are some things I never leave home without:
– Reusable water bottle: Tap water isn’t safe to drink in Vietnam, but many hotels and cafes have refill stations now – and you’ll avoid buying endless plastic bottles.
– Metal or bamboo straw: So many drinks here come with straws. Bring your own and say “Không ống hút” (no straw).
– Fabric shopping bag: Great for markets, fruit stalls, or unexpected souvenirs.
– Reusable cutlery set: Super handy for street food or take away snacks.
– Vegan snacks: Pack a few protein bars, nuts, or dried fruit for bus rides or rural stops where vegan options might be limited.
Bonus: If you’re traveling for longer, toss in a small container for leftovers – perfect for packing up extra noodles or fruit from breakfast.
These tiny swaps don’t weigh down your bag – but they do make a big difference if you want to travel Green n Keen.
