In today's #dailysignal we look at "never travellers" as a growing trend that links onto "flygskam" and 15 minute cities movements and a general trend towards more inner (or at least online) and less outer lives ahead (with a caveat that this does NOT apply to the ultra rich who plan on travelling MORE!).
I mention everyone from Ivan Illich to Daniel Faggella because everything is connected - from eating lotuses and hikikomori to walking cities and staycations.
What are your thoughts?
Is travel still aspirational?
Or is the staycation here to stay?
Let me know in the comments.
