There has been some time ago that I met at the Prince John Dive Resort is a strange young Germans. He spoke of himself only as a Traveler, he travelte been a while. Over on Java and Lombok were also lots of cool Traveler with which one could chill cool, the whole course in Backpackers. He formally took out a sentence without sounding absolutely eloquent Anglicism insert. The bird he shot down but, as he lay on the beach and decorated the sun goose idyll with the loud sound of his mobile phone, which places him in the very heart of the "normal" tourists there closed.
who believes this was an isolated case, is wrong. In the Black Marlin Dive Resort in the Islands Togean I was able to now, several specimens of this rare type of experience
tourists.
results are as follows behavioral study:
The typical traveler is different from the conventional traveler in the journey length, the routes, the Kommentkampf, the adaptation to local circumstances and, in particular the desire to distinguish themselves from ordinary travelers.
During the normal tourist (say diving tourist) is only two to four weeks, the Traveler travels from one to 12 months. Most clearly distinguished the case of the four-week Einmonatstraveller tourists. If you ask any copy, whether there away from home on holiday , this is in the negative proud. It operates "Traveling". This is the one fascinating sport, where you as quickly as possible, all areas which have been described in the Lonely Planet have seen, in order to meet every evening in the Lonely Planet recommended in the resort. Here you can do without the pesky locals and you find like-minded people. Together with any amount of beer our music is one among them. It is after all no place like.
These aggregations of different individuals, they share most of the trip. ... Uh ... Traveling stories. Traveler Those who have visited most places, anywhere can tell what (this also helps the Lonely Planet cleverly to learn by heart) to enjoy the highest reputation among peers. It seems completely irrelevant, as long as you have visited these places. Five minutes and a shot from the bus reach as much as 5 weeks. Finally, yes it is traveling and wants to travel ... .. uh ... traveln. It is important always to follow the suggestions of the guide, after all, you really know all the secrets. Now and then comes a traveler on the road and gets unexpectedly with the locals. Here he feels at not very well, but he gets along. Finally, he has eaten a whole pack Laryam (malaria prevention), drinking water (for which there is beer?) And eats no vegetables. Will he later returned to the familiar realm Travelertings one, he enjoys double prestige, because he has experienced the wilderness. And soon be heading off to close whole groups of this adventure marked by deprivation, alone out there to experience it.
important for the social hierarchy of learning Traveling is the speech competition. This occurs if they meet several travel with the same size range on each other. If the traveler does not impress his opponent with the list of destinations seen, so he resorts to his language skills. As the winner here is clear the one who ruled by the most languages a little. Most important Here are the essential words "yes", "no", "thank you" and "beer". This is brought into the resort also generously used. Decorate the whole atmosphere then by European music, which iPods from the indispensable (of course, the latest model) or the Mac notebooks are roaring, which should also be missing in any travel equipment. (Especially in poorer countries have proven this to keep before the eyes of the natives a certain level.)
Conclusion: The typical
Traveller is a walking paradox. He seeks the adventure, far away from civilization, but only goes to where it either meets other travelers, or he goes I move in large groups. The tech world that he really wants to leave, he carries it around everywhere and always with you and creates an environment at home (there's also the most beautiful).
self-reflection:
Fortunately, I think it is important to distinguish myself from the normal travelers. On the other hand, I'm not a tourist but rather an Adjusted Grant Emmi. Since I suffer from the formation of 'Travellers and tourists so little, I like looking at it regularly, drink beer and outshine every traveler with my stories, with the Indonesian staff here I only speak the national language even though It vesteht English or German. So I can impress Indonesians as well as Traveler. Ultimately I have to lose even a call. In my house I do not give up the majority of European luxury ... .. to do it is just as nice at home.
That leaves the question:
What do I do if I break off a week in my tent and go back to Germany? I know ... .. then I will just travel!
