Hey, I've been reading through your posts about how tourism and digital nomads and expats are gentrifying all kinds of cities and places in Spain and price out the locals and don't respect the culture and only put money in the hands of the wealthy.

I completely understand where you are coming from and what you're saying makes a lot of sense, but as an extranjero who wants to visit Spain, what are some things we can do to support the locals and also celebrate your culture while visiting?

Kaixo anon! Thanks for your message ^_^

I know that we all travel on a budget and are very much used to low costs in everything, and many of the suggestions I'm gonna write are quite more expensive than maybe other alternatives. This is another issue: affording ethical tourism is a privilege not many visitors have.

avoid big hotel chains and AirBnB. Instead, choose little, family-owned hotels. They usually are in villages not far from the big touristy town and also provide a calm space out of the noisy crowd.

avoid restaurant chains and fancy ones, since 99% of the times they're owned by a board of investors. Run away from those with menus displayed on blackboards written in English, they're usually unauthentic tourist traps with poor quality food. Instead, choose family restaurants offering homemade, real Spanish food. There are maaany of these, and they're a terrific experience.

if you're willing to buy some groceries, avoid supermarkets. Choose any good-looking fruit shop, or butcher's, or fishmonger's. Go to local markets and buy local produce.

if you're moving around, use public transportation or a bike. Avoid renting a car or boat and polluting our hometown and seas. If you're moving between towns, choose the train if possible instead of booking a flight.

And regarding the celebration part, some simple pieces of advice:

unless you're Latin or Mediterranean-looking, you're gonna be spotted as a guiri at first sight. You can do nothing to stop being a guiri, but don't behave like one. Since you're an easy target, be especially wary with your belongings and with people that suddenly approach you, they might be thieves. Don't walk with your map in hand 24/7. Leave your valuables at home or at your accomodation. Don't think Spain is your playground where local law doesn't apply to you because you're spending your money there. Behave like you would normally do at home.

many foreigners don't understand Spanish service. Waiters and waitresses won't be all smiles, sweet as candy, asking you non-stop how everything's going. That doesn't mean they're being rude to you and want you out, it's just a different culture: their job is to take your order, get your food, and give you the bill when asked for it. That's all the interaction you'll get. If you need more drinks or bread, you'll just have to politely attract their attention and they will help with your needs.

flow with Spanish schedule. Many tourists are entitled enough to ask for lunch at 12 or for dinner at 7. Of course this won't be a problem in tourist bars and restaurants, but everywhere else this just won't happen. Make sure to ask for the kitchen's working hours if you're interested in having a meal in a certain place and don't ask Spaniards to follow your guiri schedule.

use basic words in Spanish to be polite: buenos días, gracias, hasta luego. You don't need a Spanish proficiency certificate to leave a good impression after you leave and avoid that everyone thinks putos guiris again.

Learn about the different nations inside Spain before your visit. Don't expect flamenco shows in Donostia, or sangría in Santiago. Respect our pride: dressing up as a matador, donning a hat with the Spanish flag, or wearing it as a cape may be very unpleasant and rude for the locals in Catalunya, Euskadi, Galiza, etc. Do your homework prior to your visit and you'll enjoy it much much more, since you'll be able to appreciate all the different cultures that live together around here and what each of them has to offer you.

Who would like to own a property that's name literally translates to "Fart?" The late owner was a retired, decorated Viet Nam navy veteran from Brooklyn, NYC, who fell in love with the Terlingua, TX Ghost Town. The property is up for sale for $1.3M.

Every year he had a fundraiser to benefit the Fire Department and the EMS, called The Rocket Fuel Party.

Inside the fence is a full-size conning tower of a submarine, a replica of a sailing ship, and a small Statue of Liberty that lights up at night.

The owner's name was Jimmy and he began building a fleet.

He also built a propane-powered volcano and tiki bar to complete the south seas feel.

The submarine USS Thresher (SSN-593) was the lead boat of her class of nuclear-powered attack submarines in the United States Navy. She was the U.S. Navy's second submarine to be named after the thresher shark. On 10 April 1963, Thresher sank during deep-diving tests about 350 km (220 mi) east of Cape Cod, Massachusetts, killing all 129 crew and shipyard personnel aboard.

That's most of the history of Passing Wind.

The property has fallen into disrepair and needs a new owner to bring it back to life. This is the closest structure that I can see that looks like it was the tiki bar.

Here's the trailer Jimmy must've lived in. It looks to be in good shape from the outside.

And, there's also this building.

The land is 3.44 acres. I guess the new owner would have to be interested in military history enough to want to invest in making an attraction dedicated to it. I have no idea if this would be a tourist destination.

Table mountain & Stadium, Cape town, South Aferica: Table Mountain is a flat-topped mountain forming a prominent landmark overlooking the city of Cape Town in South Africa. It is a significant tourist attraction, with many visitors using the cableway or hiking to the top. Wikipedia

[dailyoverview]

Cape Town is a port city on South Africa’s southwest coast. The city’s geography is influenced by the surrounding Table Mountain, Durbanville Hills, and the expansive lowland region known as the Cape Flats. These geographic features divide the city into several suburbs, many of which developed simultaneously and share common attributes of language and culture. This unique blend has made Cape Town one of the most multicultural cities in the world, attracting tourists and immigrants to South Africa.

Hey! Sorry if this is weird or anything, but my partner and I are going to Boston for the first time in April. Do you have any recommendations for touristy type things we could do? Or any queer friendly places you would recommend?

We're pretty nervous because we've never been to the east coast before so any tips or tricks would help a lot!

Hi, love this question!! Here are some lists of touristy things I made for past anons:

And here's another list by @marzipanandminutiae

So the weird thing about Boston's queer spaces is that we don't really have a centralized location with a lot of queer history/culture, like Greenwich Village in New York, Toronto's Gay Village, etc. There are a few gay bars scattered here and there, but mostly you'll find that Boston as a whole is overall very queer friendly. However! If you're cool with boats, you can catch a ferry from Boston to Provincetown, MA, a town on the very tippity tip of Cape Cod that is known for being a prominent LGBTQ+ tourist spot.

And here are some general tips:

The weather here in April tends to be quite unpredictable! It could be sunny and warm or cold and rainy on any given day (sometimes both in the same day), and there's even a non-zero chance that it might snow a bit. I recommend packing outfits with lots of layers, and ideally something waterproof.

If you're planning on taking the T (public transit), keep in mind that we're dealing with a lot of construction and issues these days. The system is quite robust but also very old, and we're now in the "find out" era after fucking around with not maintaining/upgrading things that should have been done decades ago. There may be delays and/or detours depending on where you're trying to go, so it's a good idea to factor in some extra travel time. Depending on how long you'll be here, you might want to look into getting a weekly pass (unlimited travel for $22.50).

...And of course there's always Uber/Lyft if the T lets you down lol. Definitely check both apps before booking a ride, the prices vary wildly here. I find that Uber is cheaper during the day and Lyft is cheaper at night, but your mileage may vary.

Boston's night life scene is pretty abysmal compared to other major cities (which I think also contributes to the lack of dedicated queer spaces). We're very much a "do things during the day" kind of place, so you'll want to plan what you're going to do pretty early in the day.

That's all I can think of for now, I hope you have a great trip and I'd be happy to answer other questions if you have 'em!

If one were to visit South Africa, what sites and activities would you recommend? Also, which is safer cash or card?

South Africa is one of the most dangerous countries for crime (especially violent crime), so 100% card. Do not carry cash.

It depends what sort of things you enjoy, but I would recommend visiting the Western Cape what is called "The Garden Route" here. It's the most beautiful part of the country and you can get a LOT of tourist attractions involving our nature. The Garden Route is also along the coast so you can have a choice of visiting Game Parks to get guided tours to see our wildlife including Elephants and lions.

Some parks have Rhinos too but FOR THE LOVE OF GOD DON'T TELL PEOPLE ON SOCIAL MEDIA WHICH PARKS HAVE THEM AND DO NOT PUT PHOTOS ONLINE!!!!

We recently have an old bull poached because an international tourist couldn't keep their fucking twitter to themselves and HAD to let everybody know which park had a large bull. And that tourist got that animal killed. And yes I am STILL fucking angry about it.

Anyway

Being along the coast you can also get things like charted vessels to go see the whales that come to our shores.

If you go to Cape Town you can also enjoy a lot of the art scenes, visit Table Mountain, visit Robben Island to see where Nelson Mandela was imprisoned, but also you can check out the old Dutch forts and the canon which fires every hour on the hour.

Just be sure to have a VERY good idea of where your GPS is taking you and avoid driving through anywhere that looks dodgy. It would be best to get in touch with a local of some kind who can help you get around in a way that is safe if you are going to any bigger city of any kind.

Do not go to Johannesburg.

#C-Puff answers #I'm sorry I can't be more helpful #It'd depend on where you go specifically to say what there is worth seeing #My country is an ocean of blood and violence with only small islands of comfort

Friday 12th April 2024

Cape Town was in our rear view mirror as we speed away in the direction of the Garden Route which is a well trodden tourist eastbound trail along the southern coastline. We have very much enjoyed our 4 nights here; weather mixed preventing us from climbing Table Mountain, but Robben Island was great and just spending time in and around the city has been most enjoyable. The city has a friendly feel to it and we have been able to relax somewhat in a familiar cosmopolitan place; very different in character to when Martine previously visited in the eighties at a time apartheid was very much still a reality of day to day life. It was only when we set off on the N2 that we were reminded that we are not in England. First up, a farmer was heading his cows along the side of the fast dual carriageway. On leaving Cape Town we were also very aware of the shanty towns of corrugated iron box slums that are home to many people alongside the busy road. It is certainly a country of contrast and extremes which can be a challenge both to our sensitivities and consciences and hard to understand.

Next up half a dozen big hairy monkeys were picking away at something on the grass verge. Mr Avis has very kindly lent us one of his very new VW T-Roc SUV's and I must say that we are fully putting it through its paces. Don't tell anyone, but it has already been tested on 15 miles of unsealed roads! The vibration and dust exercise went especially well. Full marks. We stopped for lunch at Hermanus, about 1.5hrs East of Cape Town by the sea. Well positioned for whale watching at the appropriate time of year. Now is not that time, so this was not high on the agenda. Instead we restocked on rubbery chicken and Tim Tams. Our impressions of the place were that it was clearly a holiday location for locals and very artistic; lots of very nice galleries.

We then had a further hour and a half to go to our current port of call for the next two nights; a harbour town called Struisbaai. The area, surprisingly, has a good reputation for the production of SB! Note to self, must try. By way of an introduction to African wildlife, we were allowed sightings of two ostriches on route.

We are in an extremely comfortable B&B with fantastic views of the surf crashing against the shore of the Indian Ocean. Truth be told, I think our quarters might once have been a garage but you wouldn't know from looking at the finished result. Martine will of course be doing an oil change tomorrow! Apparently Struisbaai is the most southerly point of South Africa. To mark the spot, a most fetching red and white striped lighthouse was erected in 1842 after the loss of some 250 vessels. I'm sure, as the number one tourist attraction, we shall have to investigate much further tomorrow. We are also expecting some more good fine weather to do a bit of walking. 22° today but with a stiff chill southerly breeze.

Hey hey, new lecture video and transcript! Let's go!

[A video is embedded. Zinnia once again stands before a class of students, smartboard at the ready. Assistant Professor Aster is sitting on the desk, playing with some papers.

Zinnia: Hello, my lovely students. Who's ready to get some learning done!

She clears her throat.

Zinnia: So, when last we left off, before we were rudely interrupted, I was about to teach you about the Gaiads, the third of the major Hoenn tribes. There's a lot of other ones i could teach you about but I don't have the time so we'll stick to the big three. So, can anybody tell me about the Gaiads? Come on, don't be shy, take a wild guess.

The room's silent. Aster chitters. Zinnia pats Aster on the head.

Zinnia: Thank you, sweetheart. If no one else's got me, I know you've got me.

The class look at each other awkwardly. It seems that not all of them have gotten used to Zinnia's antics yet.

Zinnia: So, as Assistant Professor Aster said, the Gaiads are a tribe of people who are connected to the Earth, much like how the Oceanids are connected to the sea and the Draconids are connected to the sky.

She shrugs.

Zinnia: Unfortunately, I don't have a Garchomp so I can't give you a hands on display of the power of the earth, though the school'd probably get mad at me if I brought a Garchmop in here anyways, now that I think about it.

She clicks her clicker and a map of Hoenn appears on the screen.

Zinnia: Anyways, the Gaiads lived all over Hoenn's land but primarily on Mt. Chimney. That's the big volcano in the top left.

She points at Mt. Chimney.

Zinnia: Now, the most famous settlement of the Gaiads is Lavaridge Town, mostly known today for its relaxing Hot Springs and not-so-relaxing Gym Leader, Flannery. Real shouty, that one. She's also the most well known Gaiads along with her Grandfather. Interesting choice on their part to become League members but I won't judge.

Zinnia flops down into her swirly chair.

Zinnia: Anyways, before they were tourist attractions, those Hot Springs were real important to the Gaiads' culture. Still are. Think about that next time you take a dip there. Speaking of the Gaiads' culture, since they lived primarily around Mt. Chimney they were adept at ceramics and glass work. Much of their history is preserved through ancient pottery. They'd paint tales of great heroes and terrible disasters. Fun fact, according to ancient legends, the Gaiads were the first people in Hoenn to ever encounter an Absol and, consequently, the first people in Hoenn to ever blame it for great disasters. But that's a story for another time.

Zinnia spins around in her swirly chair.

Zinnia: Of course, the Gaiads' ceramics aren't anywhere near as impressive as their glasswork. They would glassify volcanic ash, no seriously that's what the process is called, and fashion it into intricate flutes such as this one.

She reaches into her cape and produces a white glass flute.

Zinnia: Not many people are left who know how to craft Gaiad flutes. Really the only one left is a man on Route 113 who'll craft you flutes for free if you bring your own ash. Don't worry, though, he'll give you a Soot Sack to collect some with.

She returns the flute to her cape and leans back in her chair.

Zinnia: And that's Hoenn's big three tribes. The Oceanids ruled the waves, the Gaiads were lords of the land, and the Draconids revered the skies. All of us have our own parts to play in the endless cycle. Like I said, there's a lot more but they don't give me enough class time for that. Speaking of...

The school bell rings.

Zinnia: Right on time. Have a good one, kiddos. If you ever wanna talk, come and find me. I'm sure you're clever enough to track me down.

The video ends.]

Top 8 Natural Tourist Locations in Malawi by Satguru Travel

The mesmerising beauty of the landlocked country Malawi in the southeast part of Africa will leave you speechless once you visit. A wide range of agriculturists living here makes this place a heaven for nature lovers. The top natural tourist locations in Malawi by Satguru Travel attract people from all over the world. If you are planning a trip to Africa, add Malawi to your list of places to visit and enjoy the heavenly spectacular views of nature. 

1.Nkhoma Mountain

If you are taking Malawi corporate travel services and planning to hike this mountain, you must be aware of the route to the summit, which is as follows:

You will find mostly flat land during the first part of the track

Once you get past the initial trail, you will come upon a fish pond. You may spot children playing near the place. 

When you are done with half the trail, you will find slight difficulty as the slope gets steeper there. You can have a view of the pond and most areas of the land while you are trekking up. 

At this point, you will have a spectacular view of the summit. One can relax here as about 75% of the hike is done and you need some rest time before restarting the hike. 

You will find a rocky slope near this point which is very difficult to pass. In order to clear this difficult part, you are required to use both hands and legs. 

Voila! You have reached the Summit within four hours. The mesmerising view from this spot will surely make you forget the tough part of the hiking journey. 

2.Mount Mulanje

Located 65 km east of Blantyre, Mount Mulanje or Mulanje Massif rises sharply from the plains of Chizardzulu and is one of the most preferred places for hiking in Malawi. One can also spend some time in the tea-growing district nearby with the same name, Mulanje. This mountain with an altitude of 3000 m is popularly called “island in the sky” by the locals. You will notice what a suitable name it is when you see the mountain enclosed in a smoke-like haze on a misty day. 

Just like Nkhoma Mountain, Massif is popular among adventure lovers for hiking and climbing. The Malawi Mountain Club and Forestry Department maintains several mountain huts scattered around the mountain. Hikers can choose from a large number of trails depending on the length of stay and what summits they want to reach. People who do not want to hike can simply visit the Mulanje Forest Reserve and spend some time exploring the plant and animal species. 

3.Lake Malawi National Park

Located at the southern end of Lake Malawi, this place is enlisted in the World Heritage Site and is the world’s first freshwater national park. Lake Malawi National Park includes a land area around the bay and cape together with the Lake and islands offshore. You will see a veritable aquarium of tropical fish offering a colourful kaleidoscopic display. 

Lake Malawi National Park holds the record for having thousands of freshwater fish that you will not see anywhere else in the world. One can also hire a boat and feed the fish directly from the hand. You can spot baboons, hyrax, antelope, and large species of birds like cormorants, eagles, and hamerkops away from the lake, in the park. 

4.Majete Wildlife Reserve

If you are visiting Malawi, do not forget to put Majete Wildlife Reserve on your list of places to visit. The continuous efforts of professionals in the protection of endangered species make Majate the most popular reserve for wildlife and safaris in Malawi. This place is located in the Lower Shire Valley, South West of Malawi. 

In the 1990s, there was heavy eradication of wildlife from this region. A non-profit organization named African Parks Majete (APM) in collaboration with the Malawian government took full responsibility and rehabilitated the reserve. The restoration includes infrastructure development, wildlife stocking, scientific monitoring function, and law enforcement. 

5.Dwangwa 

The satellite town of Dwangwa is situated on the central shores of Lake Malawi, thirty miles north of Nkhotakota. If you are visiting the lakeshore, make sure you spend some time here apart from fuelling and stocking up. You can find good accommodation facilities in this town and enjoy some lake activities during your stay. 

6.Shire River

Visiting the largest river of Malawi must be already on your list of places to visit. Shire river is the only outlet of Lake Malawi that flows directly into Mozambique’s Zambezi river. It begins from Lake Malawi and enters into shallow Lake Malombe after a 19 km (12 miles) journey; after draining Lake Malombe it flows southward towards Liwonde National Park, where you can spot hippopotami in abundance. 

7.Kasungu National Park

Located on the border of Zambia and Malawi, Kasunga National Park is full of natural woodland and bush and is spread across 800 sq miles. It was one of the oldest premiere national parks in Malawi. With time, the fame of this place has been overtaken by Majete, Liwonde, and Nyika National Park. Nowadays, most visitors prefer going to Nkhotakoata Wildlife Reserve for safaris that is being managed very well. Check the website for flight booking in Malawi and spend some time in the laps of nature here. 

8.Chongoni Rock Art Area

Located at the granite hills northwest of Dedza, in Central Malawi, Chongoni Rock Art Area is full of ancient rock paintings, constituting the densest rock art cluster in central Africa. From the paintings by BaTwa hunter-gatherers to rare farmer rock art, you will find every rare and beautiful painting from the Stone Age here. The symbols in the paintings have firm associations with females and are still culturally relevant to the Chewa community. 

Chongoni Rock Art is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that comprises around 127 sites of which some are still active for rituals and ceremonies. The tour packages offered by top corporate travel management companies in Malawi often include a trip to this exotic location. You are less likely to find such an amazing collection of preserved ancient art and Chewa’s cultural history from their early transition as agriculturists to the arrival of colonial Europeans. 

Satguru Travel is the largest travel management company in Malawi. They have certified professionals who make your travel memorable and hassle-free to enjoy your valuable time. To book a package, contact us.

Especially the coastal road which is flanked by dunes on the one side and by the Atlantic Ocean on the other is very impressive. Excursions can be made 30 km south to Walvis Bay, as well as up north to the fishing paradise of Henties Bay or to Cape Cross to one of the world largest seal colonies.

Swakopmund bietet viele touristische Reize, zu erwähnen sind nicht nur prächtige Gebäude, sondern auch die herrliche Strandpromenade, das Aquarium und vieles mehr. Von besonderer touristischer Bedeutung ist auch die weitere Umgebung. Besonders die Küstenstraße, die auf der einen Seite vom Atlantik und auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite von hohen Sanddünen begrenzt ist, hinterlässt unvergessliche Eindrücke. Ausflüge kann man unternehmen 30 km südlich nach Walfish Bay, sowie nördlich zum Anglerparadies Henties Bay oder nach Cape Cross zu einer der weltgrößten Robbenkolonien sind lohnenswerte Ziele.
