CHALLENGES

For me as a person who travels a lot, it feels like I’m missing a part of freedom. Also, I am doing a lot of sports and it is not very motivating, if it’s unsure if the event in some other country will take place, and if yes, if I can travel their without going in quarantine or without any travel restrictions.

CONCERNS

Tourism in general was strongly affected by the global crisis which we are just starting to recover from. I am sure that once all borders are open again, tourism will quickly return to its previous state. What worries me is the attitude that some people will probably have towards tourists from countries which were strongly affected by the virus. The locals might not be as hospitable to certain tourists as before. This might be a big problem since hospitality is the main factor in tourism industry. (June, 2020)

IDEAS

New safety standards will need to be developed to protect tourists and travel workers on their travels. A new way of traveling is definitely waiting for us in the future. (August, 2020)

SOLUTIONS

Let’s think sustainable, responsible, ecologically and “boutique”. Definition of boutique: authentic experiences in the countryside, connecting local providers, non-mass tourism, uniqueness, local identity, local stories, inclusion of ethno-animation. (August, 2020)

EXPLOITATION

It´s sad that there are so many cheaters who just want to get all the money which is spend by the state to help the little enterprises to survive the crisis, so that those who really need the money, don´t have any chance to work against their problems ... (June, 2020)
