I feel like I just missed the ball on traveling, as if it's becoming increasingly impossible to go anywhere outside the little bubble I live in no matter how badly I want to get out of it

Fantastic graffiti. It reflects the reality of how a right has become a form of profiteering. The state should take more decisive action against these toxic platforms.

In south Europe (Spain, Italy), USA "ex-pats" are buying all the houses.
-
I truly, truly despise Airbnb
-
Seen in Madrid.
-
Then what?
-
The most greedy people in your apartment building just gave copies of their keys to a total stranger.

For all those wanting to “go back to the good ol’ days” wait until you hear what the good ol’ days looked like for Barcelona

Oh, poor eurobaby
-
This is happening everywhere. Here in Brazil we have a bunch of Spanish, Portuguese and Italians buying our houses for their retirement plan, so they turn everything into Airbnb. Pretty sure they are doing this to other Latin countries too.

It's like that in many cases in the US too
-
Could be most spanish cities.

Brutal.

I don’t get why people even use airbnb where there are perfectly good hotels
-
And Spain wonders why there's an independence movement.

From what I’ve read a lot of ppl in Spain yelled at tourists and threw garbage at them (debatably cool) but because their economy was basically based on tourism a lot of Spanish cities are struggling right now.

This literally happened to my parents
-
- Take an empty house.
- Rent it out to tourists.
- There are now fewer homes per capita.
Again, supply was never the problem, artificial scarcity is.

Why is there a housing crisis? Because greedy leeches be buying all the homes! 🙃
