[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A pp mentioned a lack of distinctiveness and I agree with this. I am mid 50s and have travelled and worked overseas a lot. Most shops aren’t that different in asia or Europe to what we have here. Most souvenirs in every country are mass produced in China and not particularly unique. I also see museums differently to how I used to, particularly how much of poorer countries have been plundered to create the exhibits (eg British Museum). And of course the crowds. Visiting Venice feels like going to a theme park. No one really lives there anymore. It is just a giant hotel with tourists wandering around. [/quote] This is exactly how I feel. And in general, I no longer enjoy going to major cities because everything feels the same. The Gap, Starbucks, H&M, etc. I prefer smaller cities and towns for this reason.[/quote]
