Last summer, I finally to take a short break from my busy office job and travel by train across the country. I’d been it for months, mainly because I wanted to slow down and spend time on my photography hobby. On the first day, I a small coastal town that wasn’t in any guidebook, and it felt like a place you only find . The locals were friendly, and one café owner helped me by asking about my camera and suggesting the best time to catch the light. However, I also noticed how much rubbish was left on the beach, which was disappointing and made me think about the environment. Back at work, we often talk about being “green”, but it’s easy to say the right thing and then as usual. During my trip, I tried to plastic, refill my water bottle, and pick up litter when I could, even if it was just a few pieces. I didn’t want to waste time arguing about whose fault it was; instead, I chose to for my own actions. By the end of the week, I felt healthier, not only because I’d walked more, but because I’d learned a useful lesson about changing habits rather than simply making promises.
