pbrewer+FollowYellowstone Isn’t “Wild” Anymore — It’s a Zoo for Humans 🦬🚗 When I finally visited Yellowstone, I expected wilderness. Silence. Majesty. Instead, I saw a traffic jam — hundreds of cars lined up to take photos of one poor bison. People were honking, shouting, even walking toward it for a selfie. A ranger yelled, “Get back!” but nobody cared. Someone yelled, “It’s MY vacation!” That moment said everything about what tourism has become. Yellowstone felt like watching nature perform behind glass. The geysers were still breathtaking, but surrounded by selfie sticks and trash bins, they looked… smaller somehow. We say we want to experience nature — but maybe we just want to own it. #Travel #Yellowstone #Overtourism633Share
ashley89+FollowPadar Island: Insta vs RealityPadar Island in Indonesia looks like a dream on Instagram, but the reality? Think long lines, crowded trails, and a thousand-step climb just to snap that famous sunrise shot. The crowds are so intense, it’s hurting the island’s vibe—and its ecosystem. If you’re after peace (and Komodo dragons), Rinca Island or Pink Beach are way less hectic. Sometimes, skipping the ‘it’ spot is the real travel flex! #Travel #TravelTips #Overtourism00Share
