Topic: "Tourism - The Good & Tbe Bad"

[find us: Look for a black yoga ball on the table. City Cross food court is quiet at this time on Friday evenings - good for talking ]

Talking Points

1. Tell us about some of your experiences as a tourist. Put in as much colour and character as possible

2. How can tourism ruin some of the most popular places. What actually happens?

3. The experience of working in a foreign country (as an expatriate) is quite different from visiting as a tourist. Tell us about some of those differences.

4. Some tourists want to go to popular places. Why? Some tourists want to "go off the beaten track". Why?

5. What are some clues which might tell you that a person is a tourist, not a local?

6. How can you show respect to local cultures when you visit an unfamiliar place?

7. Australia has one of the most expensive passports in the world (Why?). It also gives you access to many countries. If you have/had two different passports, where would you choose to use one rather than the other?

8. Tourism is a huge industry, and also fairly modern (it came after the industrial revolution). Why would some countries restrict tourism, while other countries promote it?

9. How many different KINDS of tourism can you think of?

10. What places are on your "bucket list" to visit as a tourist?
