#Rarotonga is the most popular #tourist #destination in the Cook Islands. It has wonderfully #turquoise waters, white sand #beaches and some good #swimming and #snorkeling. But there are many other things to see and do in Rarotonga. https://backpackandsnorkel.com/Rarotonga/

Any tips on what to do in #Florence besides the obvious duomos and naked statues?

I love the kinds of things that end up on Atlas Obsecura or anything to do with animals.

While visiting #Thailand I find it exhausting how being a #tourist seems to involve being constantly ripped off.

Taxi drivers are the main example. Really, we tourists are not necesarily stupid and notice all the tricks about your metre not working, not having change, charging imaginary fees...

Or maybe it is #massTourism that corrupts everything it touches.

Whether you're interested in (not only #marine) #science and #technology, #history or #climate, the city of #Bremerhaven with many #museums drawing on its past and present as a #port is a worthwhile #tourist destination even on bad weather days and during the cold season.

Welche Arten von Mängeln sich melden lassen, ist auch regelmäßig unterschiedlich. Als jemand, der als #Radfahrer, #Pendler oder #Tourist viel herumkommt, möchte ich mich durch diesen Wildwuchs von Stadt zu Stadt nicht quälen müssen.

Stattdessen hätte ich gerne EINE App, die wirklich überall funktioniert und es mir erlaubt, das zu melden, was ich wichtig finde - selbst wenn es die jeweilige #Stadtverwaltung anders sieht und eine Kategorie im Formular gar nicht anbietet.

Day one in Sydney complete! Saw the most important sights and talked to all the boardgame stores within walking distance! Bringing this little gem for my son. Heard really good things about it and the self-proclaimed RPG nerd behind the counter of the game store also highly recommended it! It's called "Thousand Year old Vampire" and is a solo-role-playing/journaling game. #boardgames #sydney #tourist

The cover of the book "Thousand Year Old Vampire". It is made to look like an old library book.

Rock town is a little known local attraction back in Calhoun GA. It’s free, and located behind a medium sized church. #tourist #church #ga #rocktown #calhoun

A miniature Colosseum, with a woman standing behind it for scale. Behind her, is a large yard, bordered by crêpe myrtles, and a church crossing parking lot. The Colosseum comes to the woman’s waist. It is made out of concrete and small river stones pressed into it with the stones being about the sides of a persons thumbnail.
Another area of rock town. This borders by a creek with brown dirty water. A redbud tree grows over the top of all. With more green trees on the other side of creek.
The miniature rock sculptures are castle, battlements, and towers with the windows walls and multiple pathways.

Yet another holiday snap (sorry, I will get back to posting about knitting and sewing again soon!)

Horseshoe Bend near Page, Arizona - an exceptionally pretty bend in the river made famous on Instagram - basically this photo demonstrates that we paid $10 for the car park and walked for 0.75 miles in 30 degree heat to take a photo that looks like we were the only people there (we were not!)

Happy World Tourism Day! The Discworld's first ever tourist, Twoflower, travelled to Ankh-Morpork with the sole intention of sightseeing but where did he hail from?

Bonus: What was his job?

Brooklyn Bridge Tourist Attraction 2 by Debra Martz
For some locals, it's a way to walk to work. For tourists, it's a highlight to walk across the famous bridge. We chose to walk the pedestrian walkway from Brooklyn across the East River to Manhattan. Digital brushes and textures were applied. ©Debra Martz, All Rights Reserved

Today we visited the Disney Family Farm in Marceline, MO. Walt Disney grew up in this town, and in this barn (constructed to Walts blueprints) people use Sharpies to sign their names and leave messages to Walt. Outside you can see the sun setting over the farm and barn. #disney #disneyfamilyfarm #waltdisney #barn #sunset #sky #farm #tourist #roadtrip #view #explore #wanderlust #Missouri #MO

"#Venice needs to regulate the #tourist flow, not charge an entrance #fee. This initiative will turn Venice into a #ThemePark rather a place where #people want to #live and #work."

Applies equally to small and large #Irish places with too many #carparks, too many #tourists, too much intensity of eating and drinking venues, and declining #community. #Ireland and Venice are not #Disneyland attractions.

If you follow #tourist guides, you won't find this. If you Google, or trust #TourismNS, you won't find this. Rocks don't pay for listings.
There's no crowds, for that reason.
#Rocks #Beach #Hiking #Exploring #Beachcombing

I have more photos, and I'll never run out of places to show off. I don't #TravelBlog dining experiences. We personally evaluated every beach, shore, wild islands, trails, and wilderness of #NovaScotia. That's the real experience.
#WAYCTV

Common on many shores, coastal erosion is exacerbated by climate change. A large mud rock side has collapsed and slid into the beach. Tides and waves reach shoreline banks and either tear sections off, or wash out the base and the banks collapse
My wife is picking slabs off this unusual soft rock. Feels like limestone, sandstone, or shale in weight and consistency. Mother nature has carved and patterned the rock surface
It's as if a massive rock split, we can walk under and between, on low tide. You can't return this way if the tide is high
Close up on a massive rock face. Like the scales of a giant sea creature. Just sitting there on the sand, in an area you would never find, unless you are taking notes?

#EU #US and other allies of #Ukraine should keep a tally of Ukraine's projected cost of rebuilding the country based on the destruction by #Russia per year, month, day, divide it by the number of #RussianTourists per year, month, day and charge them individually for it.

When the destruction increases, the russian #tourist tax increases. When the destruction decreases, the #tax decreases.

If #Russian tourists have money to go on holiday and have fun, it means they have money to repay Ukraine.

Privilege is when you think something is not a problem because it's not a problem to you personally.

Vielleicht war der Mythos #kreuzberg immer das: ein #mythos

Aber es gibt dort (und gibt immer weniger) Orte, an denen Menschen das sein können, was sie sind: Menschen.

Und nicht reduziert auf ihre Funktion als #tourist|*innen oder #Konsument*innen

Einer dieser Orte ist jetzt akut bedroht: Der Quicky Markt am Lausitzer Platz

Kommt deshalb am #mittwoch, 9.8., um 18 Uhr zur #kundgebung vor den Laden und zeigt eure #solidaritat

#berlin #gentrifizierung #fckgentrification

Ein Flyer: Hintergrund ist ein Bild des Quicky Markts mit zwei Personen davor - in rot gehalten. Dazu das Motto der Kundgebung: "In Solidarität mit dem Quicky Markt" und die Daten: Mittwoch 9.8.23, 18 - 20 Uhr, Skalitzer Str. 96, 10996 Berlin, am Quicky Markt.

You said I was just a tourist
In your life
Only there for the
Breathtaking views
The guided tour adventures

But tourists see things
you cannot
They go to the places
You forgot existed
They witness the beauty
You took for granted

And I couldn’t bear to watch you
Ignore your own
magnificent landscapes
anymore

I don’t want to be a tourist in your life
I want to be a citizen of your world
Occupying permanent residency
And contributing to all that you are

I don’t want to always be coming and going
I want to find a place in your heart
Somewhere I can settle down
And make myself a home

I don’t want to constantly have to say goodbye
I want to welcome a shared experience
Something we can reminisce about together
And bore grandchildren with endlessly

I don’t want to be a tourist in your life
I want to explore more than the highlights
Wander off the well worn path
And discover the parts of me you can only see

Am I being silly to add the #USA to my mental list of countries too unsafe to visit? I'm sure the basic #tourist locations are OK. But anything else sounds dodgy. The risk of getting shot if I wander into the wrong neighbourhood if, say, I go to visit my relations sounds scarily high these days.

The Promised Land #swimming hole near Bellingen records #faecal contamination of water. The #PromisedLand, near #Bellingen on the NSW Mid North Coast, was so well loved recently that the local council advised swimmers to stay out of the #NeverNever #River that ran through it. There are no public toilets, no rubbish bins, and minimal parking. But that hasn't stopped thousands of people from visiting the scenic swimming spot. There is an increase in litter in the region and damage to some #revegetation areas where people had parked inappropriately.
