[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I actually watched the movie. It’s not saying don’t travel; it’s saying be mindful of your travels and impact on local communities. Don’t use developing countries as a your personal playground or life lessons. Remember you are a guest. Do your research. Pick tours, etc that benefit the locals vs the big cruise ship company/mega resort. [/quote] I watched it, too. But here’s the thing: locals do benefit from the big cruise ships. They arrange excursions with locals (they just get a cut). Ftr, I don’t use those group excursions; I book directly with locals. But some countries actually have risks involved and you are better off with a vetted excursion. What did you think of all the commentary from seemingly privileged white folks? Weird. [/quote]
