  10. Spaning: turistigheten i en stad kan mätas i hur tidigt på morgonen det går att få finkaffe.
    Metod: Google Maps - Coffee - Open now och se hur utbudet försvinner

    Ju turistigare, desto senare. Även i lilla Tarnow där jag var häromdan fanns det två caféer som öppnade 7:30 på en söndag.

    Kedje-cafeer räknas bort eftersom de bara finns på turistställen

    Det verkar också viktigt för engelsktalande turister att kunna få ”frukostmat” hela dan.

  30. Hitze?🔥

    Hält uns nicht auf, wenn wir für Wohnraum und gegen Spekulation und Airbnb auf die Straße gehen. 🔓🔓🔓

    Und ja, es gibt viele Menschen, sie sich für das Thema interessieren.

    Denn es kann nicht sein, dass wir für Wohnraum viel zahlen oder keinen finden, und andere sich bereichern.

  31. @tagesschau 1. Ich verlange, dass alle Menschen so viel Geld erhalten dass sie angstfrei leben können.
    2. Warum wird „Urlaub“ immer als notwendig wie Zähneputzen geframed? Das bedient nur die Tourismusindustrie - mit allen negativen Wirkungen. Über die zu wenig berichtet wird.

    „Eine gute Zeit haben“ ist für jede*n etwas anderes und hat erstmal nichts mit Kilometerfressen oder Tourismuswirtschaft zu tun.
    Nicht-Wegfahrern ein Defizit einzureden halte ich für falsch.

  32. Beyond the beach: Spain pushes offbeat regions as tourist numbers nudge 100 million.
