During her trips, she encountered many deficits in the tourism industry, e. g. elephant riding and long neck villages in Thailand, tethered baby monkeys in Malaysia as well as underpaid and bad equipped porters in the Himalayan mountains.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p id=\"block-de10332c-f132-498c-bacb-105957c137a6\">When she found out about the Slow Travel movement, she realized the sustainability and necessity of this travel type. It is time to become aware of the connection between the own actions and the environment.  Furthermore, short and long distance flights should be avoided. On TRAVEL SLOWLY she writes about the travel trend to popularize it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Furthermore, Anika wrote the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.travelslowly.de\/?page_id=1735&amp;lang=en\">book<\/a> &#8220;Simply Green.
