It feels like everything that exists these days is to drain money from me. Tourism is out of control. I don't even want to travel anymore. Video games, kids sports, eating out... It's all overly expensive just because they can.

It's frustrating.

Yup. When I go on holidays I focus on eating lots of yummy local food. Other than that, I don't buy crap. I don't go to silly tourist attractions. I get that everyone's struggling, specially places that depend on tourism, but do we really need a million souvenir shops?

    I may buy a cheap trinket merely as a memento, so it can hang on a keychain or sit on a shelf... as a reminder of the experience.
