About

Hi, I’m Caron Fitzpatrick, a passionate traveller, planet lover and life long educator. The Kind Vagabond is a passion project, a fusion of my love of travel and our incredible planet earth. For those interested in living, traveling and exploring ways to give back to people, places and planet, this blog may be for you.

Travel has been a lifelong passion that has taught me about the diversity of people and places around the world. It allows me an opportunity to learn about cultures, meet fascinating people, and explore the diversity of our big blue planet.

For me, sustainable travel isn’t just about travelling “Green” (which I do try to do), it’s about giving back to a destination rather than taking away. I am always looking for opportunities to engage the local people and economy in what ever small way I can. Sometimes that means finding really cool, locally owned and operated lodging or eating authentic cuisine at a small local restaurant. I have learned that seeking out local people to share their knowledge of the area will take you places that you would otherwise never have seen.

The Kind Vagabond shares my personal experience, knowledge and research on sustainable living both at home and away.

If you are the super green, don’t fly, don’t cruise traveller, this may not be for you. Please don’t judge, I certainly don’t profess to be an expert on any topic. I don’t live in a tent, eating from the land and travelling by foot or bicycle. I’m just traveller trying to do her best to explore the world in an authentic way, while exploring opportunities to be kind to the people I meet, places I visit and planet I share with you.

Welcome to the #TheKindVagabond, and always remember…

Not all who wander are lost… J.R.R. Tolken
