Theoretically I can. Never did, though. I think, I should try it someday. Just pondering, what defines ethical travelling and what makes me feel that I can responsibly visiting some places, but not so sure about others.
Edit: it almost felt bad, because I recognize that borders are actually a thing.

Ethical travelling wouldn't burn fuel, it wouldn't involve environmentally sensitive areas, it wouldn't support gentrification (e.g. airbnb) it wouldn't leave any waste behind, it wouldn't involve beg-packing, it wouldn't exploit tourism-industry workers or enable tourism-industry slavery.
So the answer is pretty much 'no' because there's really no way to be 100% ethical under civilization.

You have a lot less control over your choices when you're away from home, that,'s the bottom line. Food, shelter, transport is all in the hands of others.
