Necessary equipment for ecotourism

19/08/2020

When choosing ecotourism - whether on a tour or independently, popular or unspoiled destinations, the possibility of mistakes and dangers can still occur at any time. Below are the necessary items for a safe and complete family trip.

About ecotourism

Recently, a new travel trend has been gradually taking shape: resort combined with ecological experience. Instead of choosing a normal vacation, parents have started to look for destinations with rich ecosystems to create opportunities for their children to experience and learn from nature.

If you are also considering such a trip, you can refer to some ideal eco-resorts for families inThis.

1. Medical supplies

There are many health problems that can happen to you when traveling in remote places. Preparing medical supplies today is simply going to the pharmacy and buying a bag with bandages and antiseptics. Then, prepare other special medicines related to the region and personal health.

The first medicine to mention is insect repellent, which is extremely necessary for traveling in a tropical country like Vietnam. Next is medicine related to digestion, because you may have problems with local dishes. You also do not know in advance whether you are allergic to local dishes or not, so prepare some anti-allergy medicine, and also research the medical status of the destination in advance to have a treatment plan.

2. Travel tools

Sometimes you may forget the specific nature of the place you are going to, so you do not prepare the right equipment for the trip. Remember that the tourist season in Vietnam often falls in the rainy season, so prepare a thin, waterproof jacket; as well as a wide-brimmed hat because it will help you avoid both the sun and the rain.

Beach shoes have not received much attention while they are very useful: helping you move comfortably from dry to wet places, from mountain climbing to wading in the sea, from anti-coral, sea barnacles to anti-slip when climbing mountains... It is important to understand that if your feet are not well protected, you will not be able to enjoy your journey to the fullest.

Finally, prepare suitable clothes. Although we often have the need to dress beautifully to make our “check-in” photos more splendid, if the outfit is too stylish and flared, you will lose more energy than wearing a neat outfit. You should wear short or long-sleeved clothes to avoid collisions and scratches when exploring. Bright, outstanding colored clothes will be especially useful when you encounter bad situations such as getting lost.

3. Travel toys

Travel gear is always a tricky issue because most of us - unless we are professionals or have a lot of experience - do not understand exactly what we need? The answer is: bring only the most basic things.

Keep all your gear organized. A professional camera is sometimes not as convenient as a high-end smartphone - you can completely film and take pictures underwater with a phone and a waterproof case. Tables and chairs will only be really necessary if your destination has no seats or many obstacles; instead, you can use a tarp for everyone to sit together and display food. Don't display too many dishes, just focus on a few main dishes, stored neatly in sealed boxes. Bring charcoal and create your own safe, airy cooking areas, so you won't have to carry too much stuff.

Empty

Each person can bring a small bag of personal items, other items related to the common activities of the whole group will be divided equally to ensure everyone's health.

4. Food

It is never a bad idea to pack some dry, compact food in your backpack to use when you are tired or miss a meal. Dried fruit (grapes, bananas) is the best form of food because it provides a lot of nutrients, is easy to preserve, is neat, and easy to eat. Biscuits and dry food are also foods chosen by many people because of their convenience and ease of purchase at grocery stores before the trip. The disadvantage of the foods suggested above is that they are dry, and you will need to replenish water after eating. You should know how to drink water a little at a time, enough to relieve dry mouth, instead of drinking too much at once, which will quickly drain the water and make you sweat faster.

Another type of food that is being used by many professional travelers and explorers is packaged liquid nutrition food. These can be vitamin jellies, mixed fruit juices, nutritional gel tubes, etc. The advantage of these types is that they are packaged in compact bags, providing a lot of energy, very good for those who are weak or have difficulty eating after a tiring journey.
