    I am always riding with a bike or walking to school/work. Also working out 60 minutes 5 days in a week. So some tasks in this challenge are part of my lifestyle. I am also eating plant-based food, always carrying my own water bottle with me, taking coffee (organic) from local cafe with my own keep cup. But there are plenty of stuff I would like to do more to become more eco-friendly. For example I would like to eat more local food, right now it is easy because I can change bananas in my smoothies with pears, and eat local apples. But two weeks from now I will have to buy bananas again because winter is coming. And nuts that I use to make plant-based milk are also from far-far away :( Also I could be more zero-waste.
