A Story of #JosephineInBrisbane
Hi ! I’m Josephine , and no worries, I’m just an ordinary college who is trying to save the (and my limited amount of pocket ) by starting a more sustainable life
Long story short , I moved to Brisbane around 450 days ago (don’t count it, I know you won’t) and honestly, it was not easy peasy squeezy. As an , I usually use almost all the . And since then, I have to everywhere or take the instead. Further, grocery is another story. At that time, back in my country I didn’t have to carry reusable and I even collected many plastic bags I got from the stores
However, my journey does not there. From the little things I used to find myself comfortable with, I had a big changes coming
Being exposed to a lot of those environmental campaigns happening either on or basically almost anywhere around Brisbane , I started to realise that I must change my old habits. The first mistake I made was, I wanted to start big
Turns out, my so-called sustainable living journey was not running smoothly . Within the first month of living in , I spent most of my to purchase organic goods. For example, based , free range and , and even further, forcing myself to carry reusable everywhere which if I forgot to bring them with me, I just casually bought another reusable shopping bag.
I thought I was doing good for the environment, but it does not. I just found other excuses to buy and keep more. It is not sustainable at all . The worst part was, after the , I went broke
After realising my mistakes (OMG, should’ve realised this sooner ). Now, proud to say that I’m a better . It is not mandatory to buy goods that are labelled green or organic but small things actually matter. Air-dry your after washing them, sun-dry your and wash them using cold beforehand and use a proper amount of laundry . It is as simple as that
At the end, I hope that for any of you who face the same struggle as mine, just take a step back and realise what you have been doing, sort out what can be done further. And yes, that’s it !
For me, being sustainable is not just an option, it is a lifestyle that has to be built
