Thanks Melanie – I wish we’d used this from the beginning of our travels – we would have saved not just a fortune, but also trashed significantly less landfill plastic bottles!! Tanzania sounds amazing.. perhaps 2019…

My travels led me to be living in rural Tanzania for the past year or so and it’s been driving me nuts how I can drink water here without resorting to purchased water. Not so much because of cost but because of the seemingly endless plastic bottles that end up in landfill. The combination of these two sound like the perfect solution. Will check them out when I’m visiting uk later in the year.

Yes the beautiful weather has made the transition a little less painful! Though i fear the summer may be over already…

Hey Josie – thanks! We’re good, enjoying a little downtime in Bulgaria before setting off again. The bottles are great – especially as you can detach the filter and use a tube extender if you get “ok” water to use. It saved us a fortune in Central America – and as you say, the waste with the plastic bottles is just awful! Hoping you’re enjoying the heat in the UK at the moment… S

I remember you telling us about your water bottles, I always felt so guilty about the amount of plastic bottles we were using, not to mention the cost! Definitely going to get one of these bottles should I go travelling again, I’ve also sent this post over to a friend who is going travelling soon.

Great post!

Josie
