Last October, Patrick Leonard opened Postcard Bookshop, fusing his love for literature with his love for travel. Located in Portland’s Central Eastside neighborhood, the store’s shelves are organized according to countries or regions, from Africa to Oceania and the Pacific Northwest. In addition to travel guides, phrase books and cookbooks showcasing world cuisines, novels on display provide passage to new cultures and worldly journeys. But running a bookstore geared to customers planning or returning from vacations has made Leonard rethink what it means to be a global traveler today. From Google Translate to Instagram, Airbnb and Uber, social media and apps are changing tourism and the communities impacted by it. Throngs of visitors to popular destinations are fueling a rise in overtourism which is straining resources, prompting street protests and pricing locals out of the housing market, from Hawai’i to Portugal. Leonard joins us for a discussion about overtourism and the challenge of being an ethical tourist.

Neuschwanstein, Mallorca und Dubrovnik oder die Pfalz, die ostfriesischen Inseln und der Westharz? Sonnenbaden oder Abkühlung? Antizyklisch Reisen oder voll rein in den Touri-Strom? Über all das sprechen wir in dieser Folge, in der wir aktuelle Reise-Trends checken und außerdem berichten, wohin wir beide diesen Sommer reisen oder bereits gereist sind. Coolcation? Workation? Oder einfach zuhause bleiben und Tagestrips machen? Als Bonus treffen wir Jens Bergmann vom Wirtschafts-Magazin brand eins, das gerade ein ganzes Heft zum Thema „Tourismus“ gemacht hat. Wir reden über neue Destinations-Tipps, wie man die großen Touristenströme lenken kann, welche Lösungen es für Overtourism gibt, ob zum Beispiel ein Verbot von Airbnb sinnvoll ist und auch: Was wir tun können. Wir Reisende. Für die Orte, die wir besuchen, die Menschen dort und letztlich auch für unser eigenes, möglichst tolles Urlaubs-Erlebnis. Es gibt Ansätze, die das alles vereinen. Und eines haben wir übrigens alle gemeinsam - die Sonnen-Fans, die Entschleuniger und die Entdecker: die Sehnsucht. Nach neuen Eindrücken und der Schönheit dieser Welt. Sommer! Reisen!

You'll learn how to clean your reusable bottles properly, which brands are creating sustainable fabrics from recycled plastic, and what simple swaps you can make today to lessen your footprint.This isn't about perfection. It's about awareness, small changes, and taking gritty ownership of what we consume.Episode Highlights:(0:00) Intro(1:02) Jet lag, travel stories, and Bali's beauty(2:22) Overtourism, mopeds, and the impact on local life(4:01) Trash problems in third-world countries(7:01) Toxic dyes in U.S. ice cream vs. cleaner ingredients abroad(9:06) Plastic pollution and the myth of recycling(10:16) Nanoplastics in bottled water and health risks(12:04) Tips to reduce plastic use at home(14:23) Refusing plastics: BYOC parties and small changes(17:59) Innovative brands turning plastic into fabric(24:03) Bacteria that eat plastic, hope or hype?(25:11) Nanoplastics disrupting hormones(28:52) Your daily actions affect the whole planet(30:05) Got Grit Winner: Teen counselor saves 16 campers from flood(33:50) Outro + Song of the Week: “Keep on Smiling” by Wet Willie(34:53) OutroFollow us: Web: https://girlsgonegritty.com/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/girlsgonegritty/ More ways to find us: https://linktr.ee/girlsgonegritty

Ostschweizkorrespondentin Selina Etter über Biber, beschlagene Gürtel und Massnahmen gegen Overtourism. Produkte aus Appenzell erobern oft schweizweit Bekanntheit: Biber, Käse, Süssgetränke, Bier … Brauchtum und Traditionen sind allgegenwärtig. «Was in Appenzell in Angriff genommen wird, hat häufig Erfolg», sagt Ostschweizkorrespondentin Selina Etter. Gilt dies auch für Innovationen? Wie begegnet das Appenzellerland den Verkehrsproblemen des Tagestourismus? Selina Etter und Karoline Arn treffen sich im «Tagesgespräch unterwegs – Rendez-vous in Appenzell» auf der malerischen Hauptgasse.
Das Oberste Uno-Gericht in Den Haag hat in einem Gutachten festgehalten: Eine entschlossene Klimapolitik ist nicht bloss eine Option, sondern eine vor Gericht einklagbare Pflicht. Damit erhöht sich der Druck auf säumige Regierungen. Weitere Themen: Es ist eine unheimliche Häufung von offenbar antisemitisch motivierten Vorfällen. In den letzten Tagen wurden in der Schweiz mehrfach orthodoxe Juden auf offener Strasse beschimpft, angerempelt und bedroht. Viele Schweizer Jüdinnen und Juden machen sich Sorgen. Die Region um den Comersee beklagt sich über sogenannten Overtourism. Nur wenige Kilometer ennet der Grenze auf Schweizer Seite zeigt sich ein ganz anderes Bild. Auch Lugano hat einen See und mediterranes Flair, aber Overtourism ist hier kein Thema.

Water pistols have become a symbol of resistance against overtourism in several cities around the world. This summer local residents in Barcelona, Spain, have been using them again to show their frustration at how mass tourism is impacting their city; from housing to overcrowding. BBC journalist Laura García joins us to explain why there is so much anger directed towards tourists, as well as host websites such as Airbnb. We also hear which strategies governments in Spain and elsewhere are adopting to deal with the issue. Plus, travel influencer Joy Malonza shares tips about how we can all be more conscientious travellers.

Urlaubszeit – und damit hat auch der Overtourism wieder Hochsaison. Er betrifft Orte und Regionen, die vor allem im Sommer überrannt werden. So dass die Infrastruktur überlastet ist, Lärm und Müll überhandnehmen und die Immobilienpreise so anziehen, dass sie Einheimische nicht mehr zahlen können. Um bei so vielen Negativeffekten im Gegenzug ordentlich Geld von den Gästen einzusammeln, verlangen beliebte Urlaubsorte Extra-Gebühren. In Form von Kurtaxe oder einer "Bettensteuer". Auch in Tübingen denkt die Stadtverwaltung darüber nach. Dauer-OB Boris Palmer (parteilos) hatte ja schon mit der Tübinger Verpackungssteuer bundesweit Aufsehen erregt. Wie sieht es mit der angedachten Touristenabgabe aus: Ist es nur fair, auf diese Weise ein paar Extra-Einnahmen zu generieren, um zum Beispiel die Infrastruktur zu verbessern? Oder ist es doch eher Abzocke? Es kommt drauf an, sagt Kerstin Heuwinkel, Professorin für Tourismuswirtschaft an der Hochschule für Technik und Wirtschaft des Saarlands. Worauf? Das erklärt sie im Gespräch mit SWR Aktuell-Moderatorin Katja Burck.

It’s July, and despite what we’re hearing about close-to-home travel, Americans are still headed to Europe in large numbers and to tourism hot spots like Venice, Barcelona, Greece and Lisbon. Many of these places have also been the sites of protests over tourism – in Barcelona, for example, protesters were again using water guns to spray visitors in an attempt to make their concerns known. Travel advisor Miriam Martinez of Revigorate, who works with and advises American clients, joins tours editor Brinley Hineman and host Rebecca Tobin to talk about whether travelers are concerned about overtourism protests and anti-tourism sentiment; how advisors and tour companies are packaging and selling lesser-visited destinations to travelers; and possible solutions to overcrowded cities.

Negli ultimi dieci anni ed in modo particolare dopo la fine della pandemia di Covid sono molto mutate le condizioni di frequentazione degli ambienti alpini, siano essi sentieri, zone innevate invernali, pareti e falesie. L'impennata di visitatori ha lanciato un segnale d'allarme ad appassionati, alpinisti, ambientalisti, amministratori.Masse sempre più ampie di cittadini di ogni età, molto spesso del tutto ignare dei luoghi, hanno scoperto l'esistenza della natura alpestre e dell'outdoor. Ciò è anche legato al fenomeno dei social, dove si trovano moltissime proposte di turismo alpino e di frequentazione dell'ambiente montano, non di rado frutto dell'attività di personaggi di dubbio valore, che tendono a semplificare e massificare l'accesso all'ambiente alpino, sottovalutando l'impegno tecnico e la necessaria preparazione che non si inventa in un mese o entrando in un negozio di articoli sportivi.Tutto questo è certamente legato all'aumento del tempo libero, della disponibilità economica, e più in generale alle logiche di un certo tipo di economia dell'abbigliamento tecnico e dell'attrezzatura per la frequentazione degli ambienti montani. Ma resta un'emergenza su cui vale la pena riflettere per i pericoli cui espone un numero crescente di persone e ancora più per la sensazione che sia destinata a una rapida moltiplicazione quantitativa, con tutti gli effetti negativi che ne possono seguire.Nel corso di questo Laser vi proporremo le testimonianze di alcuni addetti ai lavori: guide alpine, direttori di stazioni, produttori di articoli sportivi, studiosi del paesaggio alpino, editori specializzati nei libri di montagna e direttori di testate specialistiche.

Oggi molto spazio agli esteri sui quotidiani, con le notizie che arrivano dal Medioriente dove le speranze per una nuova tregua tra Israele e Hamas si affievoliscono dopo che il governo di Netanyahu ha respinto le proposte di modifica all'accordo presentate dai palestinesi. Ma le trattative comunque continuano. Negli Stati Uniti ì si aggrava il bilancio dell'alluvione che in Texas ha trascinato via interi campeggi e campi estivi, uccidendo decine di persone, tra cui molte bambine. Ed è polemica sull'allarme mai dato. E ancora: Elon Musk vuole fondare un nuovo, terzo, partito e lo chiamerà America. Infine, leggeremo di movimenti: lo spostamento delle persone che svuotano i borghi interni per mancanza di possibilità o scappano dalla propria casa.

Lauren catches up with travel writer Will McGough more than a decade after they met on a ski trip to Portillo, Chile. What starts as a story about skiing shifts into something bigger: memory, grief, ethics, and the tricky line between telling a good story and protecting what's worth protecting.Will shares how covering the Virginia Tech shooting early in his journalism career shook his belief in the news cycle and pushed him toward something with more life in it: travel writing. Since then, he's written for CNN, Outside, and dozens of others, carrying both curiosity and a sense of responsibility into every piece. He's reported from Antarctica, dragged skis through remote villages, built a kombucha company, and wrestled with what it means to write about places that are being loved to death.This is a conversation about the stories we choose to tell, the ones we can't forget, and the ones we carry even when we think we've left them behind.Topics include: • The ethics of writing about “hidden gems” • Skiing culture, then vs. now • Why Portillo still matters • Grieving a parent, and what Antarctica had to do with that • How kombucha fits into all of this • What good journalism should actually do • Writing as a way to remember, and to make sense of things that don'tYou can learn more about Will at www.wakeandwander.com

Overtourism has been in the news recently with protests in Spain, Portugal, and Italy as residents come together to resist the soon-to-be-coming wave of tourists this summer.

In this episode we offer seven pieces of advice that may help you be a more mindful tourist. Our goal is to encourage tourists to travel and benefit local communities rather than putting a strain on them.

Im Frühling 2024 protestieren Einheimische zahlreich gegen Übertourismus auf Mallorca. Sie beklagen, sie würden von ihrer Insel verdrängt, könnten sich das Leben dort nicht mehr leisten. Eine alarmierende Entwicklung, die viele touristische Hotspots in Europa betrifft. Im Gespräch mit Palina Milling erzählt Autor Daniel Guthmann über die Kehrseiten von Massentourismus, die inkonsequenten Maßnahmen der Lokalpolitik und die Möglichkeiten, ohne „Heuschreckeneffekt“ zu verreisen.

What is it like to visit Italy right now, in 2025, and beyond? Well, Kat was just in Italy (right before the Conclave no less), and things are…pretty busy. It's the Jubilee year in Rome and the Vatican. It is a holy year that occurs every 25 years with many events, the chance to go through holy doors in 4 churches in Rome, and more. So, needless to say, it is busy in Rome, the Vatican, and honestly Italy in general. Because who goes to visit Rome and doesn't also say, “Well…while we're already in Italy...” Things are going to be busy throughout this year, but Italy is and will always be popular. Overtourism is still on the rise, and I think tourism will still be high in the years to come in Italy. That being said, there are ways to adjust, adapt, and even alter your plans to make it far more enjoyable. Whether you're hoping to find words of encouragement before your visit to Rome this year or are trying to find lesser visited spots in Italy, this episode has you covered and more!

In den vergangenen Jahrzehnten hat sich der Tourismus weltweit rasant entwickelt. Immer mehr Menschen reisen in ferne Länder, erkunden neue Kulturen oder genießen Strand und Sonne. Wenn Orte von Menschenmassen überrannt werden, spricht man von Overtourism — mit weitreichenden Folgen. >> Artikel zum Nachlesen: https://detektor.fm/gesellschaft/mission-energiewende-overtourism
Tourism has long been seen as mutually beneficial — allowing travelers to experience new communities and cultures, while also boosting local economies. However, in recent years, the volume of global travel has sparked growing backlash in destinations big and small.

Today we'll be talking about scams of the marijuana and marathon variety, a Pattaya woman's conspiracy to fake a robbery to hide missing money from her British boyfriend, and a little later the bizarre face shoving incident between Emmanuel Macron and his wife as he arrives in Vietnam.
The OE is considered a rite of passage for many, and Instagram boasts all the hot spots. But many locals are feeling squeezed out.
Mallorca ist die größte Insel der Balearen im Mittelmeer und eines der beliebtesten Reiseziele Deutscher Touristen. Kein Wunder, denn die landschaftliche Vielfalt ist kaum zu übertreffen: Geschützte Badebuchten, Kalksteinberge und das zum UNESCO Weltkulturerbe gehörende Gebirge Serra de Tramuntana mit seinen malerischen Olivenhainen, alte Dörfer mit Steinhäusern umgeben von Zitrusplantagen und die Mandelblüte im Frühjahr sind beeindruckend. Berühmt-berüchtigt ist die Insel aber auch für die Partytouristen mit ihren exzessiven Gelagen rund um den Veranstaltungsort “Mega-Park”. Der “Ballermann” ist eine Attraktion besonderer Art. NDR-Reporterin Bettina Peulecke hat die Insel bei ihrem ersten Besuch während Corona mit sehr wenigen Touristen erlebt. Danach bei weiteren, längeren Aufenthalten mit immer wiederkehrenden, ansteigenden Besucherzahlen. „Overtourism“ und Nachhaltigkeit wurde zum vieldiskutierten Thema. Die Insel möchte, wie auch auf der letzten ITB vehement von der balearischen Ministerpräsidentin Marga Prohens propagiert, in Zukunft für nachhaltigen Tourismus stehen. In dieser Folge von "Zwischen Hamburg und Haiti" treffen wir daher Menschen, die sich dafür engagieren: Bei nachhaltiger Olivenöl- und Textilproduktion auf dem alten Anwesen "Son Moragues" in der Tramuntana oder beim Tauchgang mit einer Gruppe junger Männer aus Bremen. Und eine Familie aus dem Schwabenland ist begeistert von einem All-inclusive-Hotel in Port d´Alcudia, in dem Kreislaufwirtschaft schon seit 10 Jahren an der Tagesordnung ist.
