Why I’m Supporting the Huggies ‘Tiniest Footprint’ Mission

06/12/19 ᛫ Add a Comment

Since becoming a Mum, I have been so conscious of all the extra waste that having a baby generates. Whether that be from nappies, baby wipes or food packing, it’s quite astounding how someone so small can still have such a big impact on household waste. I recycle as much as I can and always try to shop the most sustainable products, but I’m not perfect. I know that the most convenient options are often the least eco-friendly; baby wipes being one of them.

This post has been sponsored by Huggies

That’s why I am proud to be supporting Huggies in their ‘Tiniest Footprint’ mission, which aims to eradicate plastic from their entire baby wipe range within 5 years, or sooner. They want to provide the gentlest skincare for babies whilst leaving the smallest environmental impact. At present, their wipes already contain up to 50% less plastic than other leading brands so they’re already well on their way to their plastic-free goal. I was amazed to learn that by using Huggies wipes, you can reduce plastic usage by the equivalent of 63 plastic bottles a year! That is pretty amazing and it’s small changes like this that can add up to a big difference.

Show your support and you could win a one-month supply of Huggies wipes (12 packs). All you need to do is post a photo of your baby’s feet on Instagram with the hashtag #HuggiesTiniestFootprint and my handle @thetravelista in the caption. Here’s my entry below.

I have my friend @naomipsychotherapy to thank for I have my friend @naomipsychotherapy to thank for introducing me to wild swimming. She lives here in the Lakes and is an all-seasons pro. At first I was intrigued by her new hobby but equally I thought she was totally mad.

With 8 wild swims under my belt now I’ve definitely grown in confidence and really crave the rush of endorphins it brings. It’s such a visceral experience that pushes your body and then rewards it. There are also so many mental health benefits to wild swimming too. 

Here are Naomi’s 6 top tips if you are a beginner and want to give wild swimming a try:

1. Make sure you have a safe entry and exit point
2. Be mindful of any currents or tides. Lakes are safest as they have neither. 
3. Never swim alone. Always go with someone else.
4. Wear swim booties to protect your feet from rough ground. 
5. Remember mindfulness - try to be present in the moment, noticing what you can hear, smell, see, feel. You can’t get closer to nature than this. 
6. Make sure you have a towel and warm, dry clothing to put on immediately after swimming. 

Would you ever try wild / cold water swimming? Or are you already converted? 💬

The penthouse currently sells at an eye watering $10,084 a night, which we absolutely did not pay. 

For full disclosure, this was not a PR / press stay. My friend booked a loft suite and the penthouse upgrade was a surprise as the lovely reception staff noticed it was her birthday during our stay. We did not mention our social media accounts or my blog so this stroke of luck was 100% organic! 

Before booking the Edition NYC we saw online that the hotel regularly upgrades its guests whenever possible. We were hopeful but never ever expected they’d upgrade us to the penthouse! 

Insider tip: the generous upgrades are definitely a reason to stay at The Edition when you’re next in NYC.

What’s your favourite part of the Penthouse? 🗽
