[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's happening in the US as well: Juneau, Alaska. Or a lot closer to DMV: Old Rag Mountain, Appalachian Trail. https://www.yahoo.com/news/city-wants-ban-cruise-ships-214707359.html[/quote] Yes locals are fighting back and I don’t blame them. I still have lots of places I want to visit/never got a chance to visit. And yes, Airbnbs are more convenient. But should my desire to travel supersede people’s way of life? I see people are fighting back with “well the boomers got to travel so they shouldn’t gatekeep traveling for us” argument but that does nothing to address the impact on locals. IMO, The issue isn’t the type of tourists traveling like some PP suggested but the number. [/quote]
