What is Living Sustainably Well?

What inspires you to get up in the morning? 

 

For me, it’s about finding and living according to purpose in my daily life and by learning and sharing how to live sustainably for myself and my family.

 

My name is Lena and I live in Hamburg, Germany. This site is my way to share news and musings about small things that help and inspire me make more sustainable choices and become a better informed consumer - of things and of ideas.

​

When you look around, there are a lot of inspiring people and initiatives out there. 

 

The UN's Sustainable Development Goals aim for drastic improvements in 17 key areas by 2030. That's less than 6 years. For me, that means I need to do my part to make sure we all meet these goals. It means, I need to be teaching my children about their responsibilities toward the planet and society. It means I need to teach them to be innovative and have ownership and accountability for our shared future.

Living Sustainably Well is my down-time project done in between my day job, fitting in workouts, reading the odd book or two, and binge listening to public radio and podcasts. Honestly, what did I do before podcasts? It's a mystery. Shout out here to @WNYC - which I stream nearly every day.

I hope you enjoy browsing my site. Take a look around; maybe you’ll discover something new that inspires you too -  enjoy!
