Choosing your next holiday

The ever-growing burden of tourism on people, places, and the atmosphere has exploded into view this year. Barcelona has seen AirBnB protests, Venice charges admission fees, while the industry pumps out 5 gigatons of pollution. Australian resorts are under-serviced, with housing pressures on worker and tourist alike.
Packaged, fly-by-night “travel experiences” produce endless frustration.
