Global Tourism

Global tourism relates to the increasing numbers of tourists visiting many different countries around the globe. This also encompasses the people who travel outside their own comfort zones and their own countries to experience new destinations, seek other cultures and their activities and also experience new attractive atmospheres. Tourism has become a popular global leisure activity. For example, in 2008, there were over 922 million international tourist arrivals, with a growth of 1.9% as compared to 2007. One main change that is occuring world wide is that the amount of tourists travelling around the world are increasing in number annually.

Global Tourism is about how people travel the world in order for them to know about the diffrent cultures and beliefs. There are two types of tourist in the world which are pyschocentric and allocentric tourist. Pyschocentric tourist are people who travel in groups and close to home. Allocentric tourist are people who can travel far from home and alone.

In some parts of the world tourist are increasing in numbers and in others tourist are decreasing due to criminal and so forth.

The process of this growing problem affects global communities all over the world. Children are terrified. Adults are worried. Pets are fed. The destruction and havoc caused is... ohhhh, you mean global tourism? I thought you were talking about global terrorism.

"GLOBAL" and "TOURISM". The two words says it all. Global tourism refers to the travelers of the world whom travels for fun and to attain new experiences. Millions of tourist's around the globe visit's tropical places and even remote places to simply enhance their lifestyles. Who wants to work all year?

Because economies around the world have developed over the years, tourist attractions have multiplied thus drawing in more tourists. This results in changes as countries now rely on tourism to maintain its economy. Funding tourist attractions will be fundamental and countries will do anything to save its tourism industry whether good or bad. This leads to lack of awareness of what's happening to the world through global warming.

As more and more tourist's visit one destination, the more tourist's want to go there. You don't see people daydreaming of holidaying in Egypt but you do see people watering at the mouth to spend at least one day in Paris. The inequality of tourist distribution results in some economies reaping more and some missing out of what is rightfully theirs.
