Jet-Setting the Sustainable Way with Jules Miller

Jules Miller knows that her passion for travel and her commitment to sustainability sound like they might be at odds with one another. But, she’s still doing both: Traveling across the world and immersing herself in a new place, but in an eco-friendly way. Jules has figured out how to avoid single-use and poor-quality travel gear in favor of the stuff that lasts. Because why should you have to choose between traveling and sustainability?

“Traveling is very wasteful as a hobby, which is in turn super un-sustainable. Between buying new gadgets, splurging on new clothes, and relying on single-use plastics, people waste money on objects that are not sustainably made and that end up using only a couple of times. Why buy new every single time you travel when you could get high quality items that will last many years? I’m passionate about providing sustainable alternatives to travel that you will use over and over again to create less waste on the planet.”

More From Jules

A cause I'm into right now...

Plastic-free living. More specifically, I love the Surfrider foundation because they are fighting to end plastic pollution, protecting our oceans, and helping people access clean water, among other things. I've lived on the west coast my whole life and feel a connection to the ocean and the creatures living it in. It has always broken my heart to see plastic and other trash harming our sea life. I love to support nonprofits that align with my passions.
