RE: #TRAVELPERSPECTIVE: The Local People's Reality Is Not A Zoo!
One thing you have to consider, is when people are on vacation, it's human nature to want to have a mental escape. Tourist act weird, because they take the opportunity to vent off some built-up energy they have from doing their 9 to 5 jobs back home. I think tourist are sometimes too judgmental about other tourist over things they say and what not. Sometimes it's good to take a step back, relax and remind other tourist how to be curious without letting it bother you too much.
First of all, I appreciate the constructive input!
I see what you are saying, yet I don't see this as a good enough reason to behave like a jerk in other cultures and especially towards people (not tourists!) who have nothing to do with their 9to5 sadness. I don't have anything about tourists venting off energy, as long as this does not infringe on the dignity and privacy of those that the tourists are actually "visiting."
