      Tourism-based economies always act like they want the paycheck without the tourists attached to it.

    2. Tourism hardly benefits locals at all, only to wealthy ones that can hold a tourist catered business. I had a landlord that refused to extend my rental contract because the tourist season was going to start soon. AirBnB can go fuck itself because some wealthy guy buys up housing to turn it into AirBnB for tourists when high capacity hotels already exist and now the locals can’t buy a house

      locals be like “we need your money just not your presence” and honestly that’s kinda accurate

      Depends On the location most are forced to depend on it cus of the rich asshokes who turned the land to tourist locations

      All Vegas locals be like “fuck the strip” yet probably wouldn’t exist in that location without it.

    6. Well you are their job, you look happy when you work your job? Good for you, not many share your passion.

      “Whole economy is based on tourists” is always because tourists showed up to begin with. It never starts off that way

      Locals when they see they can’t afford to rent because everything has been turned into Airbnbs

    9. I have an uncle who does tourism work driving people around in those white vans, and he mentioned that local tourists (other Filipinos) actually tip way way more than foreigners

      Tourism is lots of customer service, and as anyone who has ever worked in that line of work can tell you, the customer can often be a complete asshole.

    11. I get it, the laws regulating this aren’t fair and need to be updated to go after Airbnb and similar companies. That being said, don’t be rude to me as a tourist if I’m not being a disturbance or rude to you. I can only afford to travel every couple years and am still scraping by. After years of saving up to travel, I don’t want to be welcomed by rude locals. I just want to keep to myself and quietly enjoy the sites, local culture and nice locals.

      tourist towns be like “support local” until locals have to actually interact with u
