Conscious Turtle

Hi! I’m Amy, and I’m the founder of Conscious Turtle. A born and bred Londoner and animal lover, I have spent the last 17 years being a serious wanderluster, visiting, discovering and exploring over 37 countries including a long stint in New Zealand. During my travels, I’ve seen the negative effect that travel and tourism has had on generating a negative impact on the environment, and the biggest issues that I experienced firsthand are plastic pollution and the mistreatment of animals. Over the years, I’ve always known that I wanted to do something to help, however I’ve never known how and what. ..

Then all of a sudden Covid-19 hit, and after years of extensive travel I found myself grounded along with the rest of the planet. I realised that now was the time for me to do something and make a change, and after lots of researching and planning at home, Conscious Turtle was born! I shouldn’t take all the credit though - my partner Freddy has put as much work into the project as I have! He is my sounding board, website designer and accountant all rolled into one!

Our ultimate focus is on 3 key areas - travel, animal conservation and sustainable living. Our vision is to create a global network community where we can grow, share ideas and work together to give our world the help it so desperately needs. So do join us - let’s spread awareness together and help take another eco step closer towards a more sustainable planet.
