I hope this message finds you well, vape aficionados. Today marked a rather slow start to my Dar es Salaam adventure, accompanied by unexpected challenges. Both my colleague and I fell victim to a mysterious ailment, leaving us under the weather and preoccupied with a less-than-pleasant focus on...

Greetings from Ethiopia! Today marked my third day in the vibrant city of Addis Ababa, and it brought a mix of surprises and challenges. The elusive quest for a vape shop continued, but alas, the sale of vape products is deemed illegal in Ethiopia. Despite this...
Exploring Addis Ababa: Day 2
Greetings from Ethiopia! Today marked my second day in Addis Ababa, and the adventure continues. The weather was a bit cooler, with traces of rain from the night before. Undeterred, I set out in search of a local vape shop, hoping to uncover hidden gems or unique...

You see, now this is why I hate disposables. I have tried to find a way to dispose of them in a responsible manner, and yet here we are. They either land up in the bin or just tossed in the street. And if you dare to try and recycle them, you get charged for it.
Now all we need is to find a place that will recycle the dead vapes responsibly, without wanting to charge money for doing so. I don't see vape shops dishing out R13 per vape that needs to be recycled and giving a discount on a new device. It will bankrupt them. There has to be a better way of...
Hi Everyone,
I've been giving some more thought to the idea of a charity or PIF bin at vape shops and came up with a potential twist that aligns with our shared concern for the environment.
How about a Recycling Bin for Dead Vapes?
