About Friendly Planet

Tell me more about Friendly Planet

Friendly Planet is an intersection of passions: wanderlust travel, responsible global citizenship, and entrepreneurship.

Let’s go 50/50

Here’s the deal - While I’m traveling, Friendly Planet donates 50% of ALL revenues to non-profits, foundations, stranded travelers, or needing souls that I stumble across. The other 50% will fund hiring a yak and paying student loans.

The Win-Win-Win (It’s the new “win-win”)

You, the readers, win - First, you’ll get some (hopefully) good reading material that aims to inspire and educate. Every time you stop by or make a purchase from the Friendly Store, you’ll be giving to a non-profit or needing soul halfway around the world. So cool and so easy, huh?
Non-profits win - I don’t know a non-profit doesn’t need a little extra money. So hopefully, with our powers combined, we can drop a check each month that is greatly needed and well-deserved in the countries I’m traveling through.
I win - I’ll get to share some cool stories, highlight some friendly people, companies, and ideas, and earn a little extra money to keep me on the road. Can you blame me?

What Are These Revenues You’re Talking About?

Partnering with Companies - In the Friendly Store, we’ve partnered with select companies that offer us a small commission if a purchase is made through our link (usually between 3% and 30%). We only endorse partners that we wholeheartedly believe in and have read or used with great satisfaction.

What Are We Talking About?

Friendly Planet is inspired in part by Ben Harper’s song With My Own Two Hands and serves to highlight how individuals and companies are making a difference with their own unique capabilities.
