Most of the world is unexplored by tourists. Your comments are only valid for "some" touristy hot spots. If you like tourism, stop focusing on the mainstream. The Philippine, for example, has lots of unexplored territories that are "accessible" (relatively speaking) and has pretty much no or very little tourists.

I was in some small town in the Philippine last year. Got into a pizza restaurant and there was a mini-event the locals made where they danced and singed. That's some genuine experience. You can have lots of these because most people are going with the flow.
