"Witty, wise and lively, Nina's book transports and illuminates. You'll be educated and entertained." - Claudia Karvan

A stunningly-written memoir and manifesto about the ethics of modern travel, written by someone best-placed to write about it. In this unique and inspiring book, travel journalist Nina Karnikowski takes an expedition to the very essence of travel, reflecting on the profound and transformative experiences to be had heading into the wild or just staying put, and how to travel in a way that is as nourishing for the places we visit as they are for us.

Sharing evocative stories from a life spent travelling the world, Nina provides a roadmap for anyone looking to broaden their horizons while better caring for our environment, by hiking, camping, connecting to indigenous communities, forest bathing, gardening, meditating and more.

Weaving in travel journalism, activism, spirituality and personal development, The Mindful Traveller is a book for our times, sharing a revolutionary vision for our place on the planet.
