Anatomy of a Tourist

How to spot a tourist
Look for these key identifiable marks:

  • Large sun hat (Tilley hats are best and a sure sign of a true tourist)
  • Big camera
  • Backpack for sunscreen, snacks, extra camera gear, plus other stuff for every contingency.
  • Water bottle attached to the backpack
  • Shorts (pants that zip off at the knees are best and a sure sign of a true tourist)
  • Sandals
  • White legs (glowing white if he is coming from a Canadian winter)

Some of the students (Maressa) pointed out that I looked like the perfect stereotype of a tourist on our recent trip to Jamaica.

Well.. if the sandal fits…
