3 Things You Didn't Know About Goa

With beautiful sandy beaches and casinos all around the city, Goa is a favorite tourist destination. Tourists in the country and abroad plan on traveling here quite often to escape day-to-day life. It is an exotic place where people can come, relax and rejuvenate themselves.
When you purchase a Recycled Travel Backpack #Goa, it will remind you of this lovely place. Many people do not know much about this remarkable city and often wonder why people love it. 
There are several reasons why you will love this fantastic place. Here are few attractive things that you may not know about Goa that will interest you.

The Portuguese Influence: Around 1510, Portuguese established their colony in Goa. It is true that the Portuguese first set their territory in Cochin and eventually set another one here in Goa. It got its freedom in 1961. You can find Portuguese influence in the architecture, names and the cuisine. The colors in this beautiful state of India are vibrant and dazzling.
Portuguese love potatoes, tomatoes and cashews and you can find them in abundance here. From the street names to the music here, everything has Portuguese influence. It is a place where you can enjoy the fusion of two cultures, Indian and Portuguese.
People here love to take an afternoon nap which they call a “Siesta”.
People here have a particular attitude which is widely known as “Sussegad". It has its roots in the Portuguese word “Sossegado”, which means quiet. People here like to relax and enjoy the life to its fullest.
Once you travel out of this beautiful state of India, the memories of this excellent place will bring you joy. No doubt, your heart will yearn to return to Goa to make new experiences and fresh memories. When you buy this beautiful travel backpack #Goa, it will continuously remind you of this remarkable place.

EVERY BAG UNIQUELY YOURS

Every backpack is one-of-a-kind! The burlap pieces are recycled from authentic Indian rice bags. Expect slight imperfections. Between fabric, the seamstress who made it, the family who received the rice, and you, every bag has a different story. You are giving life. You are a part of the story.  

Each bag is made of recycled materials. Expect the same color scheme but variations in design and patterns. 

RECYCLED = ECO-FRIENDLY 

Handmade from used jute/burlap rice bags, the bags in the Recycled Collection are made from plant-based fibers, are biodegradable, and eco-friendly. Our recycled bags have the natural smell of jute/burlap. We keep discarded rice bags out of the landfills and give them new life! Buying this bag helps preserve the earth's resources! Good karma. Good vibes. 

WHAT YOU ARE GIVING

Your purchase of this bag provides 1 kilo (2.2 lbs) of rice to a family in need in India. Indians typically eat rice three meals per day. 1 kilo will last the average family of four a little over 1 day (4 people x 3 meals = 12 meals total). We give away 25 kilos of rice at a time. 25 items = 25 kilos. This typically gives families about a month of rice! Buying this bag feeds families! 

BEST USES & CARE

This is a lightweight backpack designed for day use. Great for packing a sweatshirt, laptop, food, and more. This is not a heavy duty pack. It is not designed for extended trips or to be filled with heavy items, such as multiple textbooks, multiple water bottles, or heavy gear.

Every backpack is one-of-a-kind!

The burlap pieces are recycled from authentic Indian rice bags. These bags are purchased from local sources and reduces the amount of waste in the landfills. 

Since all bags come from recycled materials expect slight imperfections and variations in every bag.

No bag is exactly the same.

 Between the fabric, the seamstress who made it, the family who receives the rice, and you, every bag has a different story. You are giving life. You are a part of the story.  

Each bag is made of recycled materials. Expect the same color scheme but variations in design and patterns. 

We hand-deliver 1 kilo of rice for every item we make.

India alone has a population of 1.2 billion people. About 450 million, or 37%, are below the world poverty line, living on $1.25 USD per day. This leads to poor health, disease, and needless death. We give in India because it has more poor than any country in the world, 1/3 of the world's total poor.  

From a Western perspective, it can be very difficult to imagine just how important rice is to Asia and the Pacific Islands. Westerners can easily get by without eating rice. But, in Asia, this is not case. In India, rice is eaten three times per day. For low income families, rice is the primary source of daily calories. These families are not bombarded by packaged foods and fast food, like exist in the developed world. In Asia, rice is life. The amount of rice we provide lifts a tremendous burden from families who are strained in many way beyond financial. Most families dream of sending their children to private school in India, which is the beginning of the path out of poverty. Many families use the money they save to pay an admittance fee for one of their children to get into school, which provides hope for the future.

 

 

We give 25 kilos of rice at a time. For every 25 items we produce, we hand-deliver a 25 kilo bag of rice. For example, if each customer only purchased 1 item, it would take 25 customers to give 25 kilos of rice to one family. 25 items made = 25 kilos delivered. 

We don't buy rice in one country and send it to another, which would negatively impact the local economy. Instead, we buy rice locally from retail stores supporting the supply chain all of the way to the lowest levels. We buy from the places that the people would be buying from if we weren't there. The income that the family saves on rice can be used towards these necessities in their local village, therefore, stimulating the local economy.

 

We have partnered with a former farmer named Pulla, who travels to villages around India (currently near Hyderabad). Pulla meets with the village leader and explains what Rice Love is and how it works. He asks permission to help families in the village based on the leaders recommendation. The leaders identify families that are struggling due to job loss or illness. Pulla interviews each family one by one. With the permission of the family, Pulla's assistant writes down their story and takes their photo. If the need is sufficient, the family is given a token which can be redeemed the following week for a 25 kilo bag of high quality rice.

We give to single mothers, older women, however, we focus on giving to families. There are many organizations that help children, the old, and the disabled. We focus on the family because they are mostly overlooked. Millions of families in India struggle to get by financially. By supporting the family, we support the children, and the future. 

If we are going to give on your behalf, you deserve to see the proof. Every item we produce comes with a hang tag with a unique number on it. You can use that number to look up the family you fed above! Every single item is accounted for. See the proof! Read the stories. We guarantee you will not regret it!

Each bag and purse is handmade from recycled jute/burlap rice bags, the bags in the Recycled Collection are made from plant-based fibers, are biodegradable, and eco-friendly.
Our recycled bags have the natural smell of jute/burlap and sometimes takes a few days to air out after shipment.
You are keeping discarded rice bags out of the landfills and giving them a new life! 
Buying this bag helps preserve our Earth's resources! 
Good karma. Good vibes.

GOA

Things You Didn't Know About Goa

With beautiful sandy beaches and casinos all around the city, Goa is a favorite tourist destination. Tourists in the country and abroad plan on traveling here quite often to escape day-to-day life. It is an exotic place where people can come, relax and rejuvenate themselves.
When you purchase a Recycled Travel Backpack #Goa, it will remind you of this lovely place. Many people do not know much about this remarkable city and often wonder why people love it. 
There are several reasons why you will love this fantastic place. Here are few attractive things that you may not know about Goa that will interest you.

The Portuguese Influence: Around 1510, Portuguese established their colony in Goa. It is true that the Portuguese first set their territory in Cochin and eventually set another one here in Goa. It got its freedom in 1961. You can find Portuguese influence in the architecture, names and the cuisine. The colors in this beautiful state of India are vibrant and dazzling.
Portuguese love potatoes, tomatoes and cashews and you can find them in abundance here. From the street names to the music here, everything has Portuguese influence. It is a place where you can enjoy the fusion of two cultures, Indian and Portuguese.
People here love to take an afternoon nap which they call a “Siesta”.
People here have a particular attitude which is widely known as “Sussegad". It has its roots in the Portuguese word “Sossegado”, which means quiet. People here like to relax and enjoy the life to its fullest.
Once you travel out of this beautiful state of India, the memories of this excellent place will bring you joy. No doubt, your heart will yearn to return to Goa to make new experiences and fresh memories. When you buy this beautiful travel backpack #Goa, it will continuously remind you of this remarkable place.

 

EVERY BAG UNIQUELY YOURS

Every backpack is one-of-a-kind! The burlap pieces are recycled from authentic Indian rice bags. Expect slight imperfections. Between fabric, the seamstress who made it, the family who received the rice, and you, every bag has a different story. You are giving life. You are a part of the story.  

Each bag is made of recycled materials. Expect the same color scheme but variations in design and patterns. 

RECYCLED = ECO-FRIENDLY 

Handmade from used jute/burlap rice bags, the bags in the Recycled Collection are made from plant-based fibers, are biodegradable, and eco-friendly. Our recycled bags have the natural smell of jute/burlap. We keep discarded rice bags out of the landfills and give them new life! Buying this bag helps preserve the earth's resources! Good karma. Good vibes. 

WHAT YOU ARE GIVING

Your purchase of this bag provides 1 kilo (2.2 lbs) of rice to a family in need in India. Indians typically eat rice three meals per day. 1 kilo will last the average family of four a little over 1 day (4 people x 3 meals = 12 meals total). We give away 25 kilos of rice at a time. 25 items = 25 kilos. This typically gives families about a month of rice! Buying this bag feeds families! 

BEST USES & CARE

This is a lightweight backpack designed for day use. Great for packing a sweatshirt, laptop, food, and more. This is not a heavy duty pack. It is not designed for extended trips or to be filled with heavy items, such as multiple textbooks, multiple water bottles, or heavy gear. Recycled bags may be hand washed or spot cleaned and air dried. Please do NOT machine wash or machine dry.

Every backpack is one-of-a-kind!

The burlap pieces are recycled from authentic Indian rice bags. These bags are purchased from local sources and reduces the amount of waste in the landfills. 

Since all bags come from recycled materials expect slight imperfections and variations in every bag.

No bag is exactly the same.

 Between the fabric, the seamstress who made it, the family who receives the rice, and you, every bag has a different story. You are giving life. You are a part of the story.  

Each bag is made of recycled materials. Expect the same color scheme but variations in design and patterns. 

We hand-deliver 1 kilo of rice for every item we make.

India alone has a population of 1.2 billion people. About 450 million, or 37%, are below the world poverty line, living on $1.25 USD per day. This leads to poor health, disease, and needless death. We give in India because it has more poor than any country in the world, 1/3 of the world's total poor.  

From a Western perspective, it can be very difficult to imagine just how important rice is to Asia and the Pacific Islands. Westerners can easily get by without eating rice. But, in Asia, this is not case. In India, rice is eaten three times per day. For low income families, rice is the primary source of daily calories. These families are not bombarded by packaged foods and fast food, like exist in the developed world. In Asia, rice is life. The amount of rice we provide lifts a tremendous burden from families who are strained in many way beyond financial. Most families dream of sending their children to private school in India, which is the beginning of the path out of poverty. Many families use the money they save to pay an admittance fee for one of their children to get into school, which provides hope for the future.

 

 

We give 25 kilos of rice at a time. For every 25 items we produce, we hand-deliver a 25 kilo bag of rice. For example, if each customer only purchased 1 item, it would take 25 customers to give 25 kilos of rice to one family. 25 items made = 25 kilos delivered. 

We don't buy rice in one country and send it to another, which would negatively impact the local economy. Instead, we buy rice locally from retail stores supporting the supply chain all of the way to the lowest levels. We buy from the places that the people would be buying from if we weren't there. The income that the family saves on rice can be used towards these necessities in their local village, therefore, stimulating the local economy.

 

We have partnered with a former farmer named Pulla, who travels to villages around India (currently near Hyderabad). Pulla meets with the village leader and explains what Rice Love is and how it works. He asks permission to help families in the village based on the leaders recommendation. The leaders identify families that are struggling due to job loss or illness. Pulla interviews each family one by one. With the permission of the family, Pulla's assistant writes down their story and takes their photo. If the need is sufficient, the family is given a token which can be redeemed the following week for a 25 kilo bag of high quality rice.

We give to single mothers, older women, however, we focus on giving to families. There are many organizations that help children, the old, and the disabled. We focus on the family because they are mostly overlooked. Millions of families in India struggle to get by financially. By supporting the family, we support the children, and the future. 

If we are going to give on your behalf, you deserve to see the proof. Every item we produce comes with a hang tag with a unique number on it. You can use that number to look up the family you fed above! Every single item is accounted for. See the proof! Read the stories. We guarantee you will not regret it!

Each bag and purse is handmade from recycled jute/burlap rice bags, the bags in the Recycled Collection are made from plant-based fibers, are biodegradable, and eco-friendly.
Our recycled bags have the natural smell of jute/burlap and sometimes takes a few days to air out after shipment.
You are keeping discarded rice bags out of the landfills and giving them a new life! 
Buying this bag helps preserve our Earth's resources! 
Good karma. Good vibes.

The colorful fabrics of this backpack are inspired by Jaipur. This Northern desert city is part of the Golden Triangle between Delhi and Agra.

A visit to the Amer Fort will make you feel like you the star of an Arabian fairy-tale. Embrace culture by wearing a piece of Jaipur.

KOCHI

Traders, explorers, and travelers have been visiting the tropical shores of Kochi for over 600 years. Nowhere else in India can you find such an intriguing mix of giant Chinese fishing nets, a 400-year-old synagogue, ancient mosques, Portuguese houses, and the crumbling remains of the British Raj. A ride on a houseboat through the backwaters of this southern state of Kerala changes your world. Wander more by wearing a piece of Kochi.

EVERY BAG UNIQUELY YOURS

Every backpack is one-of-a-kind! The burlap pieces are recycled from authentic Indian rice bags. Expect slight imperfections. Between fabric, the seamstress who made it, the family who received the rice, and you, every bag has a different story. You are giving life. You are a part of the story.  

Each bag is made of recycled materials. Expect the same color scheme but variations in design and patterns. 

RECYCLED = ECO-FRIENDLY 

Handmade from used jute/burlap rice bags, the bags in the Recycled Collection are made from plant-based fibers, are biodegradable, and eco-friendly. Our recycled bags have the natural smell of jute/burlap. We keep discarded rice bags out of the landfills and give them new life! Buying this bag helps preserve the earth's resources! Good karma. Good vibes. 

WHAT YOU ARE GIVING

Your purchase of this bag provides 1 kilo (2.2 lbs) of rice to a family in need in India. Indians typically eat rice three meals per day. 1 kilo will last the average family of four a little over 1 day (4 people x 3 meals = 12 meals total). We give away 25 kilos of rice at a time. 25 items = 25 kilos. This typically gives families about a month of rice! Buying this bag feeds families! 

BEST USES & CARE

This is a lightweight backpack designed for day use. Great for packing a sweatshirt, laptop, food, and more. This is not a heavy duty pack. It is not designed for extended trips or to be filled with heavy items, such as multiple textbooks, multiple water bottles, or heavy gear. Recycled bags may be hand washed or spot cleaned and air dried. Please do NOT machine wash or machine dry.

Every backpack is one-of-a-kind!

The burlap pieces are recycled from authentic Indian rice bags. These bags are purchased from local sources and reduces the amount of waste in the landfills. 

Since all bags come from recycled materials expect slight imperfections and variations in every bag.

No bag is exactly the same.

 Between the fabric, the seamstress who made it, the family who receives the rice, and you, every bag has a different story. You are giving life. You are a part of the story.  

Each bag is made of recycled materials. Expect the same color scheme but variations in design and patterns. 

We hand-deliver 1 kilo of rice for every item we make.

India alone has a population of 1.2 billion people. About 450 million, or 37%, are below the world poverty line, living on $1.25 USD per day. This leads to poor health, disease, and needless death. We give in India because it has more poor than any country in the world, 1/3 of the world's total poor.  

From a Western perspective, it can be very difficult to imagine just how important rice is to Asia and the Pacific Islands. Westerners can easily get by without eating rice. But, in Asia, this is not case. In India, rice is eaten three times per day. For low income families, rice is the primary source of daily calories. These families are not bombarded by packaged foods and fast food, like exist in the developed world. In Asia, rice is life. The amount of rice we provide lifts a tremendous burden from families who are strained in many way beyond financial. Most families dream of sending their children to private school in India, which is the beginning of the path out of poverty. Many families use the money they save to pay an admittance fee for one of their children to get into school, which provides hope for the future.

 

 

We give 25 kilos of rice at a time. For every 25 items we produce, we hand-deliver a 25 kilo bag of rice. For example, if each customer only purchased 1 item, it would take 25 customers to give 25 kilos of rice to one family. 25 items made = 25 kilos delivered. 

We don't buy rice in one country and send it to another, which would negatively impact the local economy. Instead, we buy rice locally from retail stores supporting the supply chain all of the way to the lowest levels. We buy from the places that the people would be buying from if we weren't there. The income that the family saves on rice can be used towards these necessities in their local village, therefore, stimulating the local economy.

 

We have partnered with a former farmer named Pulla, who travels to villages around India (currently near Hyderabad). Pulla meets with the village leader and explains what Rice Love is and how it works. He asks permission to help families in the village based on the leaders recommendation. The leaders identify families that are struggling due to job loss or illness. Pulla interviews each family one by one. With the permission of the family, Pulla's assistant writes down their story and takes their photo. If the need is sufficient, the family is given a token which can be redeemed the following week for a 25 kilo bag of high quality rice.

We give to single mothers, older women, however, we focus on giving to families. There are many organizations that help children, the old, and the disabled. We focus on the family because they are mostly overlooked. Millions of families in India struggle to get by financially. By supporting the family, we support the children, and the future. 

If we are going to give on your behalf, you deserve to see the proof. Every item we produce comes with a hang tag with a unique number on it. You can use that number to look up the family you fed above! Every single item is accounted for. See the proof! Read the stories. We guarantee you will not regret it!

Each bag and purse is handmade from recycled jute/burlap rice bags, the bags in the Recycled Collection are made from plant-based fibers, are biodegradable, and eco-friendly.
Our recycled bags have the natural smell of jute/burlap and sometimes takes a few days to air out after shipment.
You are keeping discarded rice bags out of the landfills and giving them a new life! 
Buying this bag helps preserve our Earth's resources! 
Good karma. Good vibes.
